A/N: Oh my goodness, thank you all so much for the love from chapter one. Also, for those who haven't seen the movie, the company typically sends out those letters to everyone in the person's life (except the one they're erasing), so most of the town knows! I'm trying to make these chapters a bit longer, so bear with me. Also, I'll post another chapter later tonight or tomorrow since I'm really feeling this story right now!


Later that night, Wade was nursing a bottle of beer while staring at his feet that were kicked up on his coffee table. The words were spinning around in his head. Zoe Hart has had Wade Kinsella erased from her memory. He still had no idea what to think about the entire situation. In some ways, it still felt like a mean, hurtful joke to him. He knew that he had screwed up when he slept with someone else, but he didn't think it would hurt Zoe enough that she'd go and get him erased from her mind. He didn't even know that it was possible to do that. "Maybe I should erase her, too," he whispered to himself before raising the glass bottle up to his lips and taking a swig.

He heard a knock on the door, but his daze prevented him from getting up. "Yeah?" He yelled loud enough for whoever to hear. A few seconds later, he heard George and Lavon make their way into his living room. "What do you want?" He asked them with a sigh, still not looking up at them.

"We know this has to be rough," George started, "so we came over to help you blow off some steam." George sat down next to him on the couch and placed a 24 pack of beer on the coffee table, right next to Wade's feet. While this would normally bring a smile to his face, this time he couldn't even lift the muscles in his cheeks. He felt as if he was permanently paralyzed.

"We thought we could play some video games, drink some beers - have a much needed guy night." Lavon flashed a smile at Wade and tried to keep up his usual perkiness, but it was failing. Wade didn't want anything to do with it. "C'mon, it'll be fun." He slapped Wade's legs off of the coffee table on his way over to the Xbox and turned it on, grabbing them all controllers.

Wade moped and inched over for his other friend to sit down. Normally he hated when one person was a total drab in fun situations, but this night was different and he didn't care about having fun. He just wanted to somehow move past the fact that the doc wiped him out of her brain. "I don't want to have fun right now," he told them. "I just wanna be alone if you don't mind."

Lavon and George shot sympathetic glances at each other. Their plan did not involve Wade moping around. "I'm sorry, man," George shrugged. "This situation really sucks."

Wade scoffed. "You wouldn't even know. Golden Boy Tucker got to stay in that pretty little head of hers, but not me." He spit out those words as if they were venomous. While George would usually get riled up after hearing such things, he decided that now was not the best time to do so. Just as Wade was going to continue his rant about why it had to be him instead of someone else, the lights dimmed and went out. "Dammit, Zoe!" He yelled loud enough that Zoe could hear him across the way. The two men shook their heads rapidly at Wade, not wanting him to make a big fuss out of it.

The man stood up and grabbed a flashlight before stomping out the door and heading straight towards the fuse box. He let out a loud sigh as he opened it up, but froze the moment he heard footsteps headed towards him. "Hey," she spoke softly, "Sorry about that... I just got a new coffee machine and I was trying it out." Wade's heart sunk, knowing that this same thing had happened before even though it was a brand new situation for her. "I'm glad you know how to fix it, because I probably couldn't if I tried." She gulped, waiting for him to say something, but he kept quiet as he tried to turn the electricity back on.

Zoe studied Wade carefully as he held a flashlight in one hand and used pliers in the other. "Let me hold that for you." She grabbed the flashlight from Wade and her fingers grazed over his flesh, making goosebumps grow on both of them. She stood behind the man, wondering why this all seemed so familiar to her. She couldn't place a finger on it, but she felt like she was having a weird form of déjà vu. She tried her best to remember, but her brain was failing her. Before she even had a moment to ponder it all, the lights were back on and Wade was slamming the door to the box shut, making Zoe jump at the sound.

He turned to look at her and grabbed his flashlight. "Thanks, doc." He winked at her with a frown before turning away and heading back towards his place. He hadn't heard her leave quite yet, so he turned back around. "Be more careful next time, will ya?"

His annoyance with Zoe made her feel sick. She had just met the man this morning and had no idea why he would hate her so much if they've barely exchanged twenty words to each other. She shook her head and went inside, trying to plan out ways to make the annoyed man like her. She hadn't felt this much dislike since she arrived in Blue Bell, but that was almost three years ago. She thought everyone except Lemon was over it. Maybe that was just the way Wade was, she thought. The way he carried himself seemed pretty cocky, so maybe he wasn't one for being in a good mood. Either way, Zoe was going to try to set aside some time to making sure that Wade didn't turn out to be another Lemon, even if it took some time.
