Don't Touch Me: Two:
Luke and Bo came up to see Daisy at the hospital, Doc Appleby stopped them, and he brought them to his office, and he said with a smile, "Daisy is progressing well, she can go home at anytime, but be careful she is still fragile about what happened, and she might not welcome your help at first, but don't give up, she will get better", and they nodded, and thanked him, and then went to see Daisy
Daisy was looking out the window when they came in, and they put on their best smiles, and Bo said, "Hey, Baby, How are you?" and Daisy still was looking at the window. Luke said, "Hey, Doc Appleby said, "You are doing so well that you can go home at anytime" ", and she didn't say anything, and it brought tears to Luke and Bo's eyes, and they gave her a kiss, and sat down besides her without saying a word, and trying to make the rest of time in the hospital as pleasant as possible.
When it was time for Daisy to be coming home, all of Hazzard County heard, courtesy of Lulu Hogg, she managed to throw a party at "The Boar's Nest", and Daisy managed to lighten up a little bit, and talked to Uncle Jesse, and everyone except Bo and Luke, and it began to hurt them, and it shows on their faces, and Jesse took them to the side before the party, and he said, "Give her some time and space, this is still new to her", and the boys nodded sadly, and they returned their focus to the party.
Boss Hogg came up to Daisy, and said, "Daisy, I want you to have the money that is going into the County Fund Accounts", and he pulled out more money, "This is this for the past 3 months until now, and I want you to have a vacation", and she was gonna protest, but Boss was persistent, and said, "That is order, and enjoy yourself, OK?" and she nodded and thanked him, and she got her crutches out, and went back to her friends, who was waiting for her.
Enos came by, and he was really great with Daisy, and he told her how he felt, and he told her that he would wait for her, and he got a kiss as his reward, and left her alone on the Porch, to think, and she thought to himself,
"How could Enos love me, and how could Bo and Luke stand to look at me? It's my fault I was raped, and I deserved it, and I don't deserve any happiness, and I won't never be able to love or find it, if this doesn't work with Enos", and she cried and sobbed, until she heard her name being called, and she snapped back to the Present.
"Daisy, Are you ok?" and she looked away and quickly wiped her tears, and she turned back to Bo, and said, "Yeah, I am fine", and Bo knew something was wrong, cause he and Daisy were like twins, and they don't have to say word, and he said urging, "Come on, Daisy, talk to me", and she said angrily, "I am fine, Bo!" and both were surprised by the outburst, and then Daisy sighed, and feeling bad, "I am sorry, Bo, I guess I am not feeling well, come on, let's get some dinner", and he nodded and he let her go first, and she hobbled in on her crutches, and Bo followed behind, and they went inside, and Bo made a mental note in his head to talk to Jesse and Luke, when Daisy went to bed that night.
Daisy was getting ready for bed, and Bo made sure she was out of earshot, before he led Jesse, and Luke into the Living Room, and he said, "Guys, I am really worried about Daisy", and Luke said, "I am too", and Jesse admitted, "Yeah, I am too, I thought by now she will be feeling like herself", and the others agreed, and nodded at the same thought, and then they heard a noise from Daisy's Bedroom.
They opened the door, and found Daisy on the floor naked, and she was embarrassed and trying to cover herself up with a towel, and Bo and Luke were going to help her up, and she growled, "Don't touch me!" and everyone was taken back by her outburst, and Jesse finally had it, and he said barking, "Daisy Mae Duke, You have the right to be Independent, and refuse help, but you don't have the right to be disrespectful to your cousins, they are only trying to help you, cause they love you, and I want you to apologize to them, Young Lady, Understand me!", and Daisy said, "Yes, Sir", the three younger Dukes never saw Jesse get that mad before, and she turned to her younger cousins, and said, "I am sorry, Guys", and they nodded, and she ushered them out, so she can get ready for bed, and the men did the same.
The next morning, everyone calmed down, and Luke made them a great Campout Breakfast, and decided to eat outside, and Jesse took a sip of his coffee, and said, "OK, Daisy, What is all the ruckus that is causing your sudden bad mood?" and she took a bite of eggs, and said with a sigh, "It's dumb, Guys, you don't want to hear it", and Bo put a supportive hand on her hand, and said, "Darling, Nothing you ever said in the past or about to say now is dumb, you can talk to us", and Luke said agreeing giving her an irresistible grin, "Yeah, Baby, talk to us", and Daisy had tears in her eyes, and she nodded, and went into her story.
