"Lavon is gone, again!" Zoe exclaimed walking into the gate house early in the morning.

"Doc, what do you want me to do about that? I don't keep a tracker attached to him."

"I hope not cause that would be creepy." Wade shook his head sitting up, pulling Zoe down on his lap. "I'm hungry," Zoe whined. "Don't say it because I don't want cereal. I want fluffy scrambled eggs, bacon and blueberry pancakes."

"Let me shower and get dressed first." Zoe smiled pulling him in for a kiss. "You're free to join me, Doc," Wade winked getting outta bed. Zoe bit her lip. She really wanted to join him in the shower. She just wasn't ready to take their relationship to that level yet. "It's alright, Zoe," Wade told her closing the door to the bathroom. Zoe fell back on Wade's bed.

Last night after she left the Rammer Jammer she couldn't sleep, she stayed up in the dark waiting to see when Wade would get home. He was in a little after midnight. She felt better knowing he was home but she still couldn't sleep. So she had snuck over to the gate house and crawled into bed with him. Wade was grateful for Zoe's intrusion. Having her there with him made things easier for him.

"Wade, I'm here if you wanna talk about, Jesse," Zoe informed Wade when he stepped out of the bathroom.

"What's there to talk about? He clearly doesn't wanna see me, so I'll let him have his wish. It's always been Jesse gets what he wants, what's the difference now?" Wade asked running his hands with gel through his hair. Zoe wrapped her arms around him from behind, kissing his back.

"It's not just what Jesse wants. I only care about what Wade wants. So what does he want?" Zoe asked letting Wade turn around in her arms.

"Being with you is all I need. I haven't needed Jesse thus far, who says I need him now or in the future?"

"Well no one, I guess," Zoe replied kissing him.

"Are we done here, now? I really don't wanna hide for my safety when you start to threaten to eat me," Wade joked. Zoe smacked him.

"Yuck, like I could eat you," Zoe replied gagging.

"You love me and you know it." Wade chuckled pulling Zoe in for a hug.

"Love yes, but I don't ever wanna eat you, now let's go!" Zoe exclaimed trying to pull him out the door.

"You that hungry?" Wade asked with a chuckle grabbing his phone on his way out the door.

"I'm starving, if my stomach could eat its self it would."

"Don't be so dramatic, Zo."

Wade made sure to hurry the short distance to the Rammer Jammer. He would have suggested they walk but he didn't need to listen to Zoe complain about being hungry. Wade pulled up to the Rammer Jammer looking confused.

"Wanda was suppose to open up two hours ago. What's going on?"

"How should I know, Wade? I can't say I exactly called Wanda this morning to check in with her," Zoe retorted getting out of his car. Wade shook his head and they headed in. With the blinds on the windows closed and all the lights turned off the place seemed darker than normal. Wade flicked the light switch flipping the lights on.

"SURPRISE!" Was shouted from all of Bluebell. Both Wade and Zoe jumped with surprise.

"What is this?" Zoe asked regaining her voice before Wade did. There was balloons everywhere. Party food set up at various tables. A huge banner that read Congrats Wade and Zoe.

"It's a surprise party for the two of you getting back together," Lavon announced coming to give Zoe a hug.

"We're dating not getting married," Wade stated bewildered at the things this town did.

"We know that, but then you'll be expecting a party, this time you guys weren't," Lemon said stepping forward giving Zoe an awkward hug.

"You sayin' we ain't getting a party when we get engaged?" Wade asked hugging Lemon.

"We plan that one, Wade. And it's a tad early on that front don't ya think?" Zoe asked.

"I guess," Wade shrugged pulling Zoe into him.

"Is there a quarrel in this new found love for each other?" Dash asked stepping forward.

"There will be if I don't get Zoe her breakfast," Wade smirked going to the kitchen. Zoe mingled with everyone. She smiled spotting Earl. It was Jesse that had threw her off. She hadn't expected him to show up let alone see him again. "Breakfast is served, Doc," Wade announced walking up to Zoe. Wade didn't notice Jesse, at least that was what Zoe was hoping for here. She could only expect the worst.

"Thank goodness," Zoe smiled sitting at a table with Lavon. "You gonna tell me what's going on with you and Lemon? I really don't want to believe rumors."

"It's something, but it needs to stay under wraps."

"Are you and Lemon together? Dating? What?" Zoe asked him trying so hard not to beat the answers out of him.

"We're not together, I'm not sleeping with her. She's helping me with something. That's all Lavon can say about that. Big Z as my best friend, I want to tell you what's going on but everyone has learned you don't know how to keep secrets." Zoe pouted at that. "It's the truth, I'm happy for you and Wade, but I've got a fall festival to plan." Zoe nodded not being able to say anything with a mouthful of food.

Zoe had went around and thanked everyone for coming and pulling the whole thing off. Zoe sat down next to Wanda.

"How did you guys do it?" Zoe asked. "First off how are you feeling?"

"I'm feeling amazing, Zoe. With Wade leaving work early last night it gave all of us some more time to get things set up. It also helped that you guys stayed away for an extra hour this morning." Zoe hugged Wanda. She watched Jesse get up and go outside. Zoe got up walking over to Earl.

"Hello, Earl," Zoe smiled sitting down by him.

"Hello, Zoe, this really does suit, Wade, doesn't it?" Earl asked watching his son laugh and enjoy himself.

"It really does. I actually wanted to talk you about Wade and Jesse."

"I thought as much. It took everything I had to force, Jesse into coming here."

"I know it bothers, Wade that, Jesse says he wants nothing to do with him. Can't we lock them in a room together or something?"

"It's not that easy," Earl replied laughing. Zoe sighed seeing that Wade had just went outside.

"I really wish it was. I can't make this better for him, when all I wanna do is make everything better."

"Zoe, just be there for him. There isn't much else you can do for him."

"I know. Thanks Earl," Zoe told him leaning over the table to hug him. She paled for a second hearing the shouting going on outside.

"Let them be, Zoe. They need to have this out, as brothers," Earl informed her. Zoe nodded trying to understand why two brothers would need to fight to work things out. It didn't make sense to her. But she was an only child.
