Chapter 1

It has been eight months that she left. Eight months she has run away from Bluebell. Now, she's on a bus : the same one that brings her in the place two years and half ago.
It was hard to her to admit it but she missed it, people too like Lavon, AB even Brick.
No one knows that she was coming back. It will be a big surprise for everyone because they lost hope to see her again after five months of her departure for New York.
She needed this time off to think about her life, about the mess she was before to go. New York was a best idea. Now she feels better.

Zoe arrived to the Mayor Plantation, looking around. She really missed being here. When she finally arrived to her carriage house she stopped for a minute and looked from the other side of the pond she knew she have to talk to him but she doesn't know what to say. She came in her house, she was tired and she needed some sleep.

She woke up, the next morning, still doesn't know what to do, to say, how to react specially with him. She heard a knock on the door, losing her thoughts. It's Lavon : she missed him. They didn't talk that much lately, she was busy with work. He was still her best friend.

- Lavon ! I missed you. Zoe runs in his arms and hugs him.

- Hey Big Z ! I missed you too. How's New York? How's your trip?

- Good. All good. My mum says hi.

- Great.

An awkward silence settled down until Lavon finally started to talk :

- Did you speak to him yet?

- No, and I don't know what to say.

- Just be there for him.

- I will but I want to do more.

- Zoe, no drama.

- Why did you think there will be drama?

- With you there will always be drama. He laughed.

- It's not true !

Lavon raised an eyebrow.

- Okay. Maybe. Probably. But it will be weird.

- Just be there. I have to go to pick AB. We'll meet you there.

- Okay bye.

After Lavon left, Zoe get dressed. She decided to wear a classic black dress and black high heels. She looked herself in the mirror thinking she have to do more but she doesn't know what.
