LoriDavenport Posted July 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Lori and Cooter arrived at the garage and Cooter got depressed,"Well Lori, i hope ya have fun in Nashville. Lori looked at Cooter and said,"Now Cooter if ya really don't want me to go I wont ill stay and not go anywhere.Cooter looked at her and went,"Hmp, you'll be crazy not to."Lori shook her head and laughed a little,"I aint goin no were until I straighten things out with Luke, even if it takes me 20 years.""The talent scout said he'd wait until I was ready, I ain't ready yet." "But he did say within the next couple of days though i needed to be ready.""Don't worry, Cousin, I'll be back, I don't know when but I promise." Cooter looked at her and smiled, knowing she would. Lori sighed she didn't know what exactly she was going to say to Luke.Lori felt that right now she knew Luke wasn't about to talk to her so she wrote him a note instead,Dear Luke, I know you don't want to talk to me but please give this note a chance and dont crumple it up, i got a call from a talent scout and they want me to come to Nashville to do a showcase, I'm sorry, if anytime there was a need for me to be sorry it's now, and i honestly and with all of my heart am sorry. I wanted to tell you and Bo good-bye face to face but i didn't think you guys would give me the chance too, Luke i do understand and if we are still good friends then im proud to say that i am. But Luke if there's one thing i know is that i don't want to ever fight with you and Bo again, it kills me to fight with two boys i love t' death. Tell Bo im sorry and that i truley do mean it, i never meant to yell at him, heck Bo's like a brother to me, i just didn't want to go to Nashville knowing you two'd be mad at me... And my leaving has nothing to do with any of you... Im not mad at you Luke i truley ain't and if it seemed like i was when you told me you didn't love me i wasn't i understand i can handle rejection. I know ive handled it quite well before, goin to get married to a man I thought i loved and he left me i swore id never fall inlove with anyone, guess i was wrong. Just please don't be mad at me anymore i can't stand the thought of you guys being mad at me. I'll miss ya'll terribly and I'll write to Cooter to let him knw things, Luke do me a favor though please? Keep an eye on Cooter i know hes hurt, please whatch out for him, i know hes a grown man and all but, please. I guess I'll be going then, Good-bye Luke, Good-bye Bo...Ya'll take care now. Sincerely, LoriLori had tears streaming down her face, she knew if she never saw the two again before she left that she'd have Daisy give this to Luke. Lori looked up to the skies and prayed for a miracle to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoriDavenport Posted July 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 The talent scout had called Lori and said that the showcase date had been moved and she needed to be ready to go on the next bus, they rushed home and Lori packed her stuff, she looked at Cooter and started crying. She gave Cooter the note and said,"Whenever Luke is in town, give this to him... Tell Uncle Jesse im sorry i couldnt stop by and tell him and daisy good-bye for me. Lori kissed Cooter on the cheek and they both drove out to town to get to the bus stop, Lori looked at the Dukes farm as they drove by. Lori hated going without saying godd-bye to thwm. When they arrived at the bus stop her bus was there she quickly grabbed her things and told Cooter to never forget about her. Cooter had tears in his eyes and said he wouldn't. Lori got on the bus and waved good-bye to Cooter and watched as she left Hazzard County for a looong while. Cooter headed on back to the garage with Midnight Rider, and had parked it in the main back of the garage and covered it up. He went and sat down and rubbed his head and then shook it.He put the note in his pocket waiting to give the note to Dasiy or to Luke either one, he'd give it to the first one he saw.

DaisyMaeDuke Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Luke smiles a little. he was always thankful for Bo, but the times like these, when he needed a friend and brother and not a cousin, he was especially grateful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
