Previously on The Summer I Turned Pretty...
- Bottoms up! - We're getting lit, bitches.
How could you have only slept with one person for all of college?
You didn't tell them about you and the iconic Lacie Barone?
Jere and her hooked up in Cabo during spring break.
Are you good, B? You seem stressed.
I'm just kind of in my head about all this wedding stuff.
- Well, you want to be my wingman? - Sure.
Steven's not mine, and I'm not gonna just, like, hold on to him
if he doesn't want to be with me. I'm not like you.
Everything was fine until Christmas.
What happened at Christmas?
We were here together in Cousins.
I thought you hadn't seen him in forever.
I lied.
I never even had a dream wedding. I only ever pictured Conrad.
Belly, I still love you.
Don't marry him. Be with me.
Good morning, Bells. I-I'm really sorry
about missing our beach meetup last night.
My punishment is being on a boat hungover all day with my dad and the guys.
Have fun at the spa today with the girls.
I love you. See you tonight at the rehearsal.

Hey.
You're supposed to be fishing.
Yeah.
Somehow, spending all morning on a boat with my brother seemed like a bad idea.
Listen, about last night, uh...
...can we just forget that it ever happened?
I was drunk off my ass.
I was way out of line.
I'm really sorry.
You weren't drunk.
Yeah, I was, but...
Oh, my God. You haven't changed at all.
You bring all this up the weekend of my wedding...
and now you just want me to forget it?
What, are you saying that you don't want to forget?
You know what? You're, you're sick.
Don't you, don't you understand that you can't play with people like that?
- Belly, wait-- - Don't-don't say my name.
Don't even think it. You know what? Don't ever speak to me again.
Come on, Belly, that's gonna be a little hard,
considering you're marrying my brother.
Yeah. I'm marrying your fucking brother.
And what am I supposed to say to him now?
I'm supposed to let you stand up there with him on his wedding day?
I want you to leave. I want you to make up one of your bullshit excuses,
and I want you to go to Boston, to California,
I don't even care where, just-just get out of here.
I'm not leaving, Belly.
Go.
Just go! Go!
What did you expect me to say, Belly?
- Stop saying my name! - What do you want from me?
I laid myself fucking bare last night.
I put it all out there, and you shut me down.
And now here I am, trying to let you off the hook,
trying to come out of this with a little...
piece of pride, and you won't let me have that.
You broke my heart last night, Belly. Is that what you want to hear?
You really are heartless.
No.
I think it's you who's heartless.
What is that supposed to mean?
- Tell me what you mean by that. - You know what I mean by that.
I love you. I will never not love you.
I think you know that. I think you've known all along.
- That's not true. - Yes, it is.
We dated for a couple months when I was in high school,
and I'm-I'm somehow supposed to know
that-that you're still not over that after all these years?
It hasn't been years since Christmas.
Christmas? What about it?
Hmm. What about the day we went to Michaels?
Or when I cut my leg surfing?
Nothing.
Okay.
♪ And you give yourself...
Fine. Have it your way.
I'm not pretending for you anymore.
♪ And you give...
My heart's pounding a million trillion times a minute.
I've never felt more alive.
Anger, sadness, joy. He makes me feel all of it.
No one else has that effect on me. No one.
Suddenly, I have this feeling, this absolute certainty
that I will never be able to completely let him go.
It's as simple and as hard as that.

I can't walk away from Jeremiah.
But I still can't seem to let go of Conrad.
When Conrad Fisher told a girl he loved her,
he meant it.
A girl could believe in that.
A girl could maybe bet her whole life on it.
That's what I'd be doing.
I'd be betting my whole life on him.
And I can't do it.
I won't.
I thought all the guys went on a fishing trip this morning.
Yeah, I wasn't really up for it.
Hmm. Gee. Wonder why.
I need to talk to you.
Sit down.
What'd you say to Belly last night?
What did she tell you I said?
Sh... Nothing.
But she was upset, and I'd be willing to bet money
that it's something to do with you again.
Nice.
- Nice one, Conrad. - It's none of your business.
Yeah, no, Belly's my oldest friend in the world.
- Of course it's my business. - Are we done here?
No. Can you sit your ass back down?
Stop... doing whatever you're doing.
Leave her alone. It's confusing her.
I'm not trying to.
She cried herself to sleep last night.
You just, like, you-you treat her like this...
...toy that you just
pick up and play with whenever you feel like it.
That's not what I'm trying to do.
What? Really? What do you expect to happen?
You think you're just gonna drive off into the sunset with her?
That she's just, like, gonna blow up her whole life
just because you suddenly remember
- she exists? - Yes.
No. It's not like I just suddenly remembered
that she existed, Taylor. It's that I never forgot.
Ever. Not for a second, and,
I don't know, she can try and push it down all she wants,
but I don't think she forgot either.
Mm-hmm.
Um...
Look, I mean... if you keep this shit up,
you might get what you want, you know?
Maybe she, she gives up everything for you.
It's possible.
But just...
I don't think that
you're capable of-of being the person that she needs,
and I think you know that.
So...
I would say do the right thing and let her go.
Where's Anika?
They brought her back for her massage.
Oh.
I wish Jeremiah wasn't on this stupid boat. I need to see him.
You'll see him at the rehearsal. It's only a few more hours.
Uh-huh.
Are we gonna talk about it?
Talk about what?
Conrad.
I don't want to talk about him.
I saw him this morning.
What'd he say?
That he wants to, like, run off into the sunset with you.
- What? - Yeah.
Is he going around telling people that?
- No, I mean, I don't-- - Oh, my, oh, my God. What if, what if
- he says something to Jeremiah? - No, no, no.
- I-I really... No. I don't think he will. - What if he says something?
I mean, I told him to fuck off.
I doubt he'll even show up tonight.
Did I do the right thing?
- Like, is that the right thing to do? - Yes. Yes.
- Okay. Okay. - Absolutely, you did the right thing.
I hope he left town already. Oh, my God.
Okay. Now I just...
I need to get through this rehearsal and this dinner...
...and then I can marry my best friend.
And I am never letting him go.
- Hey, Mom. - Hi.
- Hey, Daddy. - Hey.
You look beautiful, bean.
Oh, man,
you're gonna be a wreck tomorrow, aren't you?
Ten bucks says you cry before me.
Sucker. You're on.
So, how you doing, kid?
- You ready for this? - Why?
Are you gonna try to talk me out of it one last time?
Nope. I'm all in.
You know what's best for you.
Come on.
After you.
- How was fishing? - It sucked.
Redbird got seasick, and everyone was hungover and cranky.
You dodged a bullet.
Hey, Kayleigh.
Is he insane? Why is he even here?
Just ignore him.
You ready, babe?
- Yeah. Of course. Yeah. - Yeah.
- Let's go rehearse. Let's go. - Okay.
Yeah, sounds good. I just have to talk to Jeremiah before we start.
Yeah, sure.
Hey, guys.
- Hey, Adam. - Good to see you.

It shows.
Hmm.
Hey, Stevie.
Hey.
- There he is. - When's dinner start?
Hey.
Mm, hey, you good?
Mm-hmm.
I'm great.
Oh, my God.
Aw, babe.
Don't say it.
I didn't say a word.
I'm really sorry that I was such a raging bitch to you last night.
Well... I'm used to it.
He looks happy, right?
He does.
Yeah.
Let's go out next weekend,
just two single girls, before I go back to school.
We can, like... What, you have plans? Or--
Um...
- there might be a guy. - What?
- It better not be Scott. - It's not Scott.
- Thank God. - It... I...
I didn't say anything because I know that you think I have terrible taste in men.
Well, you should have, like, PTSD.
Look, I'm not gonna let this one drain
- my savings and ruin my credit, okay? - Yeah.
I learned my lesson.
Wait, you know about that?
I figured it out.
I wish you'd told me.
- Mom, I-I just-- - No, no, no.
I...
I know that you were trying to protect me,
and I love you for it, Tay,
but that's not your job.
I'm the mom.
Jere, what do you have planned?
I have a surprise for you.
You'll never guess what I convinced Kayleigh to serve tonight.
Lobster rolls?
- Yeah. - Yeah?
Yeah.
I know the way to my woman's heart.
You already have my heart.
Mm.
Ladies and gentlemen,
if you could take your seats...
...lobster is served.
Ooh, they look so good.
Sure.
All night I haven't looked in his direction,
but I always know where he is.
I am painfully aware of him
and the fact that, at any moment, he could blow this whole thing up.
Hey. You ready?
Yeah, let's do it.
Jeremiah and I just wanted to, uh, thank you all
for, for being with us tonight.
Yes, yes.
We know the wedding came as a shock, um, for all of you,
so we don't take your support for granted
and we know you'll never let us.
I know.
Um... we've been lucky enough
to have you all by our sides for our whole lives,
and, um, we'll take the lessons that we've learned from you
with us into this next chapter together.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
From my mom, her strength and resilience,
and from my dad, his optimism and steadfastness.
And from my father, his drive and determination.
And from Steven...
Yeah, I guess we didn't come up with anything.
- Weird. - Sorry.
Um...
Uh, in all seriousness...
nobody has a bigger heart than my big brother.
And, Taylor...
the way that you go so hard for the people that you love
is something that we both deeply admire.
And you may not be my sister by blood,
but you are in my heart.
Love you.
And, Conrad...
...like most brothers, sometimes we're best friends,
and other times... well...
But, man, um,
you're loyal as hell, and I really respect that.
Brothers till the end.
Mm.
There's one more person that we want to recognize.
Um...
we both miss my mom so much...
...especially now.
Belly...
...you were the daughter she always wished she had,
and that makes me feel like a part of her is with us every day.
I've known you your whole life, my Bells,
and I have loved you the entire time,
first as a friend... then as something more,
and at the risk of sounding really cringey...
...as soulmates.
And I cannot wait
to marry you tomorrow.
Aw.
Me, too.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
Cheers.
Wonderful speech.
Thanks, Dad.
- Thank you, Adam. - No, I should be thanking you.
You've really helped Jeremiah come into his own.
The partners are thrilled you're taking the job,
none more than me.
I'm proud of you, son.
Thanks, Dad.
Jere.
- Yeah. - Can we...?
What was that about?
Um...
my dad offered me a job, and I said yes,
and it starts next month.
Y-You said yes without consulting me?
Yeah... that way we don't have to rely on our parents for anything.
- I thought you'd be proud of me. - Yeah,
I mean, I, I am, um...
...but what-what about school?
I'll just... I'll finish online.
Okay, so you're just, like, moving to Boston?
Well... no, no, I-I'll make the commute from our place,
and with the money I'll be making, we'll be able to get that apartment.
Okay.
I-I, I just really wish that you had talked to me about it first.
Belly, if you don't want me to do it, then I won't.
You know what?
If working for your dad is what you want, then...
I want it for you, too.
I just want us to figure out what's next together.
Okay?
Yeah, yeah, of course.
Okay.
My lady.
Thank you.
I'm wiped.
So, does that mean you're too tired for ice cream?
We're getting married tomorrow, and you don't know the answer to that question?
Do you know me at all?
- Thank you, sir. - Thank you.
Oh, I know you, Belly Conklin.
Hey, Con, bunch of us are grabbing some ice cream.
You want to join?
Uh, yeah, man, I think I'm just gonna head back to the house.
I'm pretty beat.
Seriously?
Just join.
I don't really want to.
So, first you tap out early on the bachelor party,
then you bail on fishing, and...
today you barely say a word?
I'm doing my best, man, it's been a long 24 hours.
Hey, they're gonna close in ten.
We should go.
Sorry.
You're supposed to be my best man.
Co-best man.
Remember?
Excited for your speech tomorrow.
We'll get you some ice cream.
The usual, right?
Thanks, man.
Rest your weary bones, Grandpa.
All right, let's go.
Thought you were just getting your dress and going back to the inn.
You looked like you could use a little company.
What should we toast to?
The happy couple. What else?
How you doing with all of this?
Good. Great.
Come on, Con, it's me.
Your Laura.
It's killing me.
I'm gonna...
...go out there tomorrow and be my brother's best man.
I'm sorry, kid.
I know you love her a lot.
This must be really hard.
You'll get through it, I promise, and I'm here for you.
God, I miss your mom.
Me, too.
I wish...
I'm gonna go up to bed before they get back.
Okay.
- Good night, Laurel. - Good night, Connie.
Dude, you didn't tell me that your sister's rehearsal dinner was family only.
Belly said I could bring a plus-one.
Okay, well, maybe she said that, but she didn't mean it.
Taylor and Lucinda, they're not family.
Well, Belly's known them for forever. Taylor is practically her sister.
Okay, what about, uh, Kayleigh, then? Huh?
Oh. Oh, my God.
Dude, that was totally their coming out, wasn't it?
Oh, my God.
Oh, I wonder if she's gonna be on Adam's desk on Monday.
Oh, God. On it, under it.
- Mm. That is sick, Steven. - Okay, yeah, yeah. You're right.
- You're right, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. - Mm-hmm.
- He'll be under it. - No.
So, how's the, um,
the coffee-cookie dough-pretzel extreme, huh?
It's a... flavor explosion in my mouth.
- Oh, yeah? Let me try it. - Yeah.
Anything?
- No. You? - Mm. Nothing.
- Oh. - Like kissing a plant.
- Thanks. - No.
No, like... like a... a really nice
tall... plant.
- That makes me feel a lot better. - Okay.
- It's probably for the best. - Yeah.
To be honest. I mean, if we're gonna work together.
No HR violations to worry about.
- Yeah, right. - Yeah.
Okay. All right, now that we got that out of the way,
um, how about we talk terms?
Off the top of my head...
50-50, equal equity.
Uh, four years to vest, one year cliff.
Either of us split early, we get nothing?
Great. Shake on it.
- You don't have any counters? - Nah.
Sounds fair. I trust you.
Partners?
Partners.
I do want more of that, though, actually.
- That was delicious. - You have to take it yourself.
You're not gonna spoon-feed it? Mama bird?

Jeremiah?
You're not supposed to be in here, are you?
The night before the wedding?
I know, um, but I have to tell you something.
Last night Conrad told me he still has feelings for me,
that he still loves me.
H-He did what?
- I wanted to tell you sooner-- - I fucking knew it.
- I'm gonna kill him. I'm gonna kill him. - Jere. Jere. No, please.
Please just stay here and talk to me.
- Stop protecting him. - I'm not.
I see the way he looks at you.
I know he's been in love with you this whole summer, even longer.
So is that, is that it?
Are we over?
Is that why you're telling me this? So you can go to him with a clear conscience?
No. I'm-I'm-I'm telling you this because I couldn't marry you if you didn't know.
No secrets, remember?
I can't believe he would do this to me.
It doesn't matter. He doesn't matter.
This is you and me, and we're getting married tomorrow.
Unless you want out.
Of course I don't want out.
I don't want to lose you, Belly, ever.
I don't want to lose you either.
Can I stay here tonight?
- Please? - Yeah.
Come here.
Jere-Jere, I need some dress socks, man.
Watch out, watch out, best man coming through.
- What happened to separate bedrooms? - Shut up.
Jere's not here. He's probably downstairs.
No, he's not. I've been down there all morning. He's not there.
Blake? I need socks, man.
No, you're not borrowing my socks.
Everything okay?
- Have you seen Jere? - Why not, buddy?
- No. - 'Cause I've seen your toenails.
- They're disgusting. - Okay.
Okay, can someone find Redbird socks?
Okay.
Jere, we were supposed to be at the country club, like, now.
Where are you?
I'm just, I'm starting to freak out. Please, please call me.
Hey, do you have any socks I can borrow?
Jere?
Yo, why are you not answering your phone?
Mom keeps calling. She says you need to get your ass moving.
I mean, you were supposed to leave, like, an hour ago.
- I can't. - Okay,
Bridezilla, Mom's about to lose her shit, I mean--
Jere's missing.
Uh, uh, wait, wait, wait, wait. M-Missing like, um...?
Like I woke up this morning, and he was gone, and nobody's seen him.
Okay, fine. Yeah, whatever. He probably just went out surfing or something.
No, he's not surfing.
Conrad told me he loved me,
and last night I told Jere so that we could work through it.
- And we did. - Con told you he loved you?
And-and you told Jere? Belly, what the fuck are you thinking?
- Steven, please focus. - Okay. Okay.
- Uh, well, did you call him? - Don't you think I thought of that?
- He's not picking up his phone. - Fuck.
No, that's okay. Hey, that's okay.
That's okay. We'll figure it out together. Yeah?
Hey, hey, hey.
I'll find Jere, okay?
I'll bring him back, and you two will make up.
And you'll live together, happy,
just like you planned.
Okay?
Okay.
Yo, have you seen Jere?
Isn't it bad luck to see the groom before the wedding?
Okay, I'm not in the mood, Fisher. Just tell me if you've seen him or not?
No.
Not that I'd want to see you if I were him, anyway.
I can't even fucking look at you, man.
Is everything okay?
You know, Belly told me what you said.
She told Jere, too.
Last night. And now he's gone.
- What do you mean, he's gone? - I mean, no one can find him.
What is wrong with you?
Really? What is wrong with you?
We can all clearly see that you're still hung up on Belly, okay?
With all your brooding and your sad-boy whatever-the-fuck.
But did you really have to go and confess your undying love
the weekend of her wedding to your little brother?
Did you really think she was gonna change her mind?
I don't know. Maybe.
You're insane.
All right, Steven, I really don't want to hear about this from you.
Oh, no, no, no, you're gonna hear it.
You're gonna hear it 'cause Belly is my little sister
and Jere is my best friend.
I've barely seen you in years. All right?
I see Jere every day. He has Thanksgiving with my family.
He has the spare key to my apartment.
He calls my grandmother Halmoni, for fuck's sake.
You are the one who disappeared.
Yeah, and now you know why.
Look, I know that somewhere in all your self-destructive bullshit,
there's still a good guy.
Okay? So I'm only gonna say this once.
Fix what you broke. Find Jere.
Be the good guy that we all thought you were.

Do you need my help with anything?
I'm just trying to pin this up.
You know I'm not great with hair, but I can try.
What's that?
It's for you.
From Susannah.
She asked me to give it to you on your wedding day.
Jere has one, too.
Did you give it to him this morning?
I left it with Conrad.
You went with hydrangeas.
Like in Susannah's garden.
I can't believe my only daughter is about to get married.
Hey, this may not be exactly what I'd pictured for you,
but I am always, always here for you.
Thank you, Mommy.
What if you wore it down?
I was thinking that, too.
Okay. All right.
Hurry up and get yourself ready.
I love you.
Fuck.
I'm warning you, don't come near me right now.
Jere, we don't have time for this. You're getting married.
Come back with me.
- Fuck you. - What's it gonna take, Jere?
Do you want to hit me? Come on, hit me.
- It'll make you feel better. - No, it'll make you feel better.
Okay.
Belly's waiting for you. Don't keep her waiting on her wedding day.
Shut the fuck up and don't talk to me about her.
Jere, I'm begging you. Please.
You're begging?
Why'd you do it?
I mean, did it make you feel noble, giving her up for me?
I know about Cabo, you dick.
So maybe I should be the one asking you if you love her or not.
Okay.
Good. Can we go now?
Don't talk to me about who loves Belly more.
You're the one who treated her like garbage.
Even now, you can't admit how you feel about her to my face.
Fine.
I love her.
Someti... sometimes I think that she's the only...
girl I could ever be with, but she doesn't want me.
She... picked you.
Yeah, she did.
I gave you your shot years ago.
You don't fucking get another one.
Read this. It's from Mom.
I'm going back, but I'm not going back with you.
You're not my brother anymore. You're dead to me.
I don't want you at my wedding. I want you gone.
- Jere-- - You're never seeing her again.
Or me.
You and I are done.
This is for you.
- Is he here? - No.
People are starting to arrive.
I-I mean, I'm-I'm trying to stall Paige
as best as I can. Like, I told her, like, Jere has stomach problems, and I...
- I think it might be time to-- - He'll be here.
- Belly-- - Don't.
Any minute now.
I know him. He's-he's coming back.
Okay.
But would it be, like...
like, the worst thing in the world if he didn't?
What is that supposed to mean?
Nothing.
No, say it.
Fine.
I don't think you should do this.
Do what?
Marry Jeremiah. I-I don't think that you should.
I-I honestly, I don't think that you want to.
How can you say that to me?
Belly, am I supposed to pretend like
you didn't cry yourself to sleep two nights ago?
And, like, all the stuff that you said about Conrad at your bachelorette--
Yeah, well, I was, I was high when I said that.
- No, we both know that that's not why. - No. Stop. Stop.
I am marrying Jeremiah today,
and if you can't support me, then you shouldn't be here.
What? I've been supporting you this entire time, Belly.
I mean, I-I've stood by you
and watched you choose Jere over Paris,
over your mom, and now over me?
Yes, I choose him over everyone
because that is what you do when you love someone
- and when you're really in it with them. - Is it?
Really? I don't... I'm just, I'm worried about you.
I feel like you've completely lost yourself in Jere.
And, like, that's not love. That's codependency.
Oh, stop with your TikTok therapy bullshit, okay?
You are the last person that I would ever come to for relationship advice.
You-you are too selfish to ever put anyone before yourself.
That's enough, Belly.
- Stay out of this, Steven. - No.
You don't get to take your messy relationship problems out on Taylor
just because your fiancé went fucking AWOL.
Steven, shut up.
This is not about me. This is about you
and what you really want.
So figure it out while there's still time.
You know how good of a friend Taylor is to you?
How loyal she is, how much she loves you. And this is how you repay her?
I don't need this right now.
Why are you here?
Jere's back. Yeah, just thought you should know.
Has he texted you back at all?
Nah, he's probably just trying to make an entrance.
- Let's hope so. - Ho-ho-ho.
Yo, dude, where have you been?
You rage again last night? Legend.
Hey, uh, I just, I need a minute.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- Yeah, yeah, sure. For sure. - Yeah.
Come on, guys.
Let's go hit the bar.
Yeah, yeah, let's go.

What happened to your face?
Nothing I didn't deserve.
Y-You... you can't be in here.
I know.
I need to say something to you.
You've said plenty.
Just go.
I'm sorry for screwing everything up.
I hurt you.
And for that, I am so sorry.
I'm sorry.
I don't want to do that.
So I'm not gonna stay for the wedding.
I'm just gonna take off now.
I won't see you for a long time.
And that's probably for the best.
It hurts.
Being near you like this.
And Jere, he's the one that needs you right now.
I need you to know...
that whatever happens...
...it was worth it to me.
Being with you, loving you.
It was all worth it.
I wish you guys the best.
Be good to each other.
A part of me always believed
that we would find our way back to each other.
That no matter what, we would be connected...
by our history, by the summerhouse.
But this time it felt final.
Like I would never see him again.

You don't believe all that shit Belly said about you, do you?
I mean, Taylor...
I mean, she knows me better than anybody. She was right.
No, she wasn't.
No, no, she wasn't.
And it was bullshit of her to say that.
I mean, Taylor, you've been nothing but...
an amazing friend to her.

No, if... if I was such a great friend to you, then...

There's not?
I mean, we tried, uh, but...

Why not?
You people are like herding cats.
Best man, maid of honor, let's go.
Yeah. Um, uh, to be continued?
Yeah.
Oh.
It's me.
Come in.
No one's gonna be able to take their eyes off you
when you walk down the aisle.
S-So there's...
there's gonna be a wedding?
Well, I'm-I'm dressed and so are you, so...
Where were you?
It's not important. I just needed some time.
I'm good. I'm ready.
Wait. Can we...
can we just talk about what happened?
I'm a little freaked out.
I mean, you've been gone all day, and I didn't know if you were coming back.
I don't want to talk about it, Bells.
I'm here now, aren't I?
That's what matters. I-I always come back.
Conrad's the one who leaves.
I ca... I can't even say his name without you getting this look on your face.
- Jere-- - Even now, you-you can't
stop thinking about him, can you?
Oh, my...
Uh, I thought I could do this, but I can't.
I need you to look at me-- look me in the eyes--
and tell me you don't still love him.
Jeremiah, I love you.
That's not what I asked.
I know you love me.
What I'm asking...
is do you love him, too?
There are moments in every girl's life
that are bigger than we know at the time.
Moments that, whatever you do next, there will be an impact.
Your life could go in one of two directions. Do or die.
They don't get much bigger than this.
Yes.
I think I'll always love him a little.
I'll always have him in my heart.
But he's not the one that I choose.
I choose you.
I choose us.
That's not enough.
I don't want part of you, Belly.
I want all of you.
And I haven't had that, not ever.
I know about Christmas.
I know you two were together.
Jere, nothing--
nothing happened. I-I would have told you.
- I-I swear that we didn't-- - I know,
I know you didn't sleep together, okay?
But something happened, something bigger than that.
You started to love him again.
The two of you in the house all summer.
And fuck you both for making me think it was all in my head.
I never meant, I never meant to--
You lied to me, Belly, for months.
How long have you known?
Since before spring break.
When my dad and I visited my mom's grave.
- What? - Yeah. It turns out, one of the neighbors
saw Conrad there
at the same time you told me
that you were at the beach house alone.
Do-do you know how stupid
I felt in that moment?
That's, that's why you picked a fight with me before spring break?
Yes. Of course it was.
Why didn't you just say something?
Because I was waiting for you to tell me.
- Wh-- - But you never did.
I-I-I wanted to...
When you came to the hospital the day of Steven's accident,
- I-I almost did, I-- - Yes,
but you didn't, Bells.
You didn't. You-you could have just said no
when I asked you to marry me.
If you had any doubts, you could have said no,
but you said yes. So I think, "Finally,
finally, I am enough," that you were ready to forget him,
but there's a piece of you...
there's a piece of you that will always love him,
and I think it's bigger than you know.
No. No, you're wrong.
I see the way you look at him, Belly.
I don't think you've ever looked at me like that.
Not once.
Nice.
You haven't opened your letter.
No, not yet.
I got one, too.
Except it was Conrad's.
She said she's only ever seen him in love once.
It was with you.
It doesn't matter.
Not anymore.
Jere, after your mom died,
you and I,
we put each other back together.
We did that, you and me.
And you're a part of me now. I don't, I don't know
where I end and where you begin, and...
and whatever I have left in my heart for Conrad, it...
it doesn't compare to me and you.
You can't marry me to erase him.
I don't know how to not love you.
Even now. And that's the worst part.
The way he said it, I knew that, if I asked him to,
he would still marry me,
even after everything.
But I couldn't.
