Part 10- No one understands

Wade & Lavon:

"Woman…they are the devil. The nerve of that woman thinking I had a serious problem. What I wouldn't give to show her that she's wrong."

"Are we talking ourselves again Wade? You know that could be a sign that you need some serious help." Lavon states

Wade glares at him and then sighs. "I just had a conversation with your tenant across the way and she's crazy Lavon."

"Zoe? She is one of the nicest people I've met. Even Lemon likes her."

Wade snorts. "She's got you guys fooled. That woman is going to be the death of me. Zoe thinks she can come in here and pretend that all is well here in BlueBell. Just because her real father died here doesn't make her one of us. She is a New Yorker who only wants to know her past because…Well I don't know why."

"For someone who doesn't like her you sure talk about her a lot. If I didn't know any better she was getting underneath your skin."

"You've been around Lemon too much Lavon. Zoe Hart and I are nothing more than acquaintances in passing. If it wasn't for the kitchen that we share then I'd be happy if I never saw her again."

"Ouch. That sounds pretty harsh. She's going to be here for a while Wade. I suspect Zoe won't be leaving this place until she find the answer she is seeking."

"Well don't let the door hit her on the way out."

Lavon shakes his head. "The reason why I was going to talk to you was to invite you over for dinner. Lemon wanted to hang out with you and Zoe but I'll tell her you're not feeling like yourself at the moment and to postpone it another time."

"You'll do no such thing Lavon. I'll be there but I refuse to talk to Zoe. I don't need Lemon to hound me for skipping out on dinner. She scares me but don't tell her that buddy."

"Okay. I'll let her know. Lemon's on the way to Zoe's as we speak."

Zoe & Lemon:

There was a knock at the door and it wouldn't stop. Zoe just wanted some peace but she knew the pounding wouldn't end. It was easier to answer the door.

"I'm coming…hold your horses."

Zoe opened the door and none other than Lemon was standing outside the door.

"Umm…this is a really bad time Lemon."

Lemon peaks in and notices the damage to the mirror. "Redecorating I see."

"Something like that Lemon. What can I do for you?"

"I was coming over here to invite you to dinner with Lavon and I. Lavon is currently at Wade's inviting him too. I just thought the four of us could spend some time together and get to really know one another."

"Thank you for the invite but I don't think I'm up for it."

"Nonsense. You have to eat and I won't take no for an answer. Be at the kitchen at 7 pm and dress nice. We wouldn't want to scare anyone now would we."

"Lemon…"

"See you later at 7 Zoe."

Lemon leaves and Zoe just shakes her head. There was no point of arguing. It was easier to get this over with. Now she had to deal with Wade on top of Lemon. Yeah me she thought in her head. It was going to be a long night.

….

Wade & Lemon:

"Wade Kinsella just the man I was hoping to run into"

"I've already agreed to attend tonight Lemon. Lavon was just here."

"That's not why I wanted to talk to you about. What's the deal with you and Zoe?"

"There is nothing going on with myself and Zoe Lemon."

"Hmmm…interesting."

"Did she say something Lemon? She is certifiable crazy."

"No. Zoe hardly said anything at all. See you tonight and dress nicely."

"Lemon…"

"See you at 7."

Women are nothing but trouble Wade thought. If only there was a way to forget them, especially his irritating neighbor that lived right across the pond.

….

Zoe & Candice:

Knock Knock. Once again the person on the other end wouldn't stop. Walking to answer the door Zoe yelled "I'm coming. You already made it clear."

Zoe opened the door and was surprised to see her mom on the other side. "What do I owe this pleasure of you seeing you again mom?"

"The last time I came by you were busy with Wade. I brought you a bottle of wine as a present."

"He's not here mother so say what you have to say. I have plans tonight."

"Your father and I wanted to invite you and Wade to lunch tomorrow. We want to get to know your boyfriend and we've got some news to share."

"I'll have to check his schedule mother. He's a busy person and to spring it on him at a moment's notice isn't fair."

"Hmmm…trouble in paradise already Zoe."

"You don't know what you're talking about."

"Ouch…quick to defend. I hope for your sake you know what you're doing."

"Thank you for stopping by mother. I'll give my best regards to Wade for you."

"See you tomorrow at lunch Zoe and don't be late. I hate waiting."

Zoe closes the door and sighs in relief. Opening her purse she takes out her tablets and looks to down it with a cup of water. Unfortunately the only thing around her is the bottle of wine her mom brought her. Zoe takes a quick sip and lies down.
