I do not own Hart of Dixie or any of its characters, as much as I'd like to own Wade. 3

Zoe Hart stepped off the plane and practically ran down the hallway to the gate. Her year in Bluebell, Alabama was over and she was glad to be home, and get the fellowship she wanted. As she came to a stop, George Tucker finally caught up to her. He had flown with her, moving to New York himself. After all he found out Lemon Breeland and Lavon Hayes secret, he couldn't stay in his home town anymore. He took going with Zoe as a fresh start to hopefully something better. He hadn't tried anything on Zoe yet, He was still too hurt over Lemon, and he wasn't sure how Zoe felt. George also didn't want to lose the little friend ship he had left with his once best friend, Wade Kinsilla.

Wade stayed behind in Bluebell, Zoe never asked him, or told him she was going. He found out through George, when he had picked Zoe up. Wade tried to keep his feeling hidden, which got him to where he is now, in Bluebell alone. He spends most of his time at the Rammer Jammer, or at home playing his guitar. Wade had been in love once before, she pretty much tore his heart and stomped on it. He told himself to never do it again; he had to save himself from hurting again. As it turned out, he let his guard down.

Wade got into his red Camaro SS and drove to the Rammer Jammer for work.


Wade smiled as he looked on, Zoe watching him. They were in the center of the town, watching everyone around them. Wade realized how much he wanted to be with Zoe, all of Lavon's talking and telling him he liked her was true, and he finally wanted to admit to it.

"Zoe."

She smiled, "You called me Zoe."

He raised a brow, before he could say anything someone else was calling for Zoe, he turned with her and frowned when he noticed it was George.

"Hey George," She turned from Wade to him.

"Zoe.. I did it." He walked close to her, ignoring Wade completely. Wade was confused, he watched them, as they kept getting closer.

"Really?" Her smile grew bigger, Wade had never seen her smile that big, not with him anyway. Somehow this was the moment he knew that his heart would be broken again.

"Yes. I left Lemon. She seemed… Happy about it." He grabbed her hands.

Wade gasped, "You did what?"

This was the first time George had even noticed Wade, "Me and Lemon… We weren't meant to be, she wanted to be with Lavon. She had an affair with him. I never knew, but all the signs were there. All the time they spent together, the way she'd be when me and him were both around her. I should have known long ago."

Wade shook his head, before he knew it George had placed a hand on Zoe's face, pulling her into a kiss.

"I want to be with you Zoe. I can't deny anything, When I first saw you, when you got in my truck. Many of our encounters after, I kinda see why Lemon didn't want me around you. Little did I know, you weren't the only reason."

Wade couldn't take anymore, he threw down his beer bottle in between the two and stormed off. Once he got to his car, he got in and cranked it, pulling off quickly, causing the wheels to squeal as he went.


Once he parked his phone rang. He looked at it and sighed.

"This is Wade."

"Uh..Hi Wade, I just wanted to let you know we made it."

Wade shook his head, great a reminder. "Thanks George, take care of her there."

He hung up his phone and slid it into his pocket, walking into the Rammer Jammer and starting his shift. After he walked to the back, he told Shelley she could take a break, there was no one in the Rammer Jammer right now, so he didn't mind being alone. Once she walked outside, he smashed his hand into the corner of the bar. After a few minutes, he pulled himself together, and grabbed a tray, setting it over the dent he made into the bar table.

"Ready?" George asked as he grabbed the bags off the baggage claim conveyor belt.

Zoe nodded to him, "As ready as I'll ever be."

They walked outside of the airport and grabbed a cab, as they loaded everything and got in, Zoe smiled as she looked outside the window.

"It's kinda nice, seeing New York again. I almost forgot what the city looked like." She smiled as the cab driver drove to their destination.

George smiled, "I never knew what the city was like till I came for law school. I never thought I'd miss it, I missed home so much then."

Once the taxi came to a stop, they both stepped out, George grabbed all of their bags and they walked inside the building. After they stepped into the elevator, Zoe hit the penthouse button, sighing as the elevator went up. When the doors open she stepped out with George, going over how she was going to explain this to her mom.

They got to the door and she found her keys, unlocking it and stepping inside.

"Zoe?"

She smiled and stopped with George, "Hi Mom."

"Zoe! I'm so happy to see you! Oh.. You brought a friend?"

George smiled, "Mrs. Hart, you might remember me, George Tucker." He held out his hand for her.

She smiled and placed hers with his, "Yes, George. Hi! Welcome to New York."

He nodded, "Where can I put our stuff?"

"I'll show you," Zoe spoke up, wanting to get out of the room before her mom had any more time to talk to them before they got settled.

They walked back to her old room; her mom left it just how it was. She smiled lightly as she sat on the bed, George joined her. He placed a hand on her shoulder, pulling her closer to him.

"Not having any second thoughts are you?"

"No.. It feels good to be back here. Do you want to go get something to eat?"

He nodded and stood up again, "That sounds good. How about we go get a good New York pizza?"
