B.L. Davenport

Back at the garage Cooter and Luther had went back to work once all the 'excitement' was over. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Back at the Davenport farm Dixie was still rambling excitedly while Lori was upstairs with her guitar writing a song. B.L and Konrad were doing their best to ignore Dixie's rambling only giving her an occassional 'uh huh', 'really', and 'is that so' just so it would seem that they were paying attention to her. What they were really doing is trying to think of somewhere to go to be alone. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The chores done at both farms and supper ate everyone went to bed that night. The next morning...

Lulu Hogg

Konrad was watching Luke and Dixie and asked B.L "what's up with them?" He wondered if they were together especially with all the accusations he'd heard flying around tonight. B.L had noticed them being cozy too and answered. "I dunno but they sure are cozy tonight." Jeb noticed Dixie and Luke too and wondered who had requested all these love songs. He was sure gonna ask Luke about it when he got home.....

Back at B.L's table she and Konrad were leaning their chins into their hands elbows resting on the table as they stared at each other listening to the music. The next song that Jeb played was 'Baby's got her blue jeans on'. Konrad took B.L's hand and asked "would you care to dance madam?" B.L. smiled and stood up saying "I'd love to". They went out onto the dance floor and danced. Konrad holding B.L tight around her waist and the song fit because as usual she was wearing her jeans and boy did they fit WELL. After the song finished before they headed back to their table the band started to play Conway Twitty's "When we get behind closed doors" and B.L blushed thinking about what happened behind those closed doors. Konrad chuckled at her blush and kissed her cheek softly taking her in his arms again as they danced.

B.L looked at Konrad when Lori hit the girl and said "I knew this wasn't going to be good. And we're right in the middle of it." Konrad chuckled and asked "your cousin's and mine always like this?" B.L nodded and answered "yup ALWAYS" Luke was on the dance floor with Dixie. He had heard behind him, Lori say his name a few minuters ago. He turned to see Lori holding Bo's hand and Matt's sister's cousin on the floor. Luke turned. Dixie said, "You're going to Lori? That's what she wants." Luke shook his head, 'no', "I'm going to check on Matt's sister's cousin. Come on." Luke and Dixie went over to check on Matt's cousin's girlfriend's sister and Lori who'd been drinking pretty heavily by this time snarled and asked Luke, "so ya checking on yer next girlfriend Luke? Ain't ya afraid Dixie will get mad at ya?" Luke looked at Lori and said "She's not my next girlfriend. And Dixie isn't goign to get mad at me." B.L and Konrad were turned around at their table watching all the action shaking their heads this was turning out to be quite an evening........

Luke.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After Luther had calmed down somewhat he'd let B.L and Konrad leave the garage. They were going to meet the others at the Boar's Nest but they hadn't gotten away without a warning to behave from Luther and a threat from Cooter to B.L that he'd be there and watching her as well as Dixie. Back at the house they went upstairs to get ready to go to the Boar's Nest. Konrad said "I thought ya Uncle Luther was gonna kill us." B.L shrugged as she went into her room with Konrad close behind "I figure he's gonna kill me anyway cos I didn't shut my mouth the first time he told me to." Konrad turned her around and pecked a kiss on her lips "that pretty lil mouth gets you in a whole lot of trouble I bet." "You just don't know the half of it." B.L grinned and wrapped her arms around Konrad's neck and kissed him lightly. Konrad pushed her back on the bed and leaned over her kissing her lips and down her neck it wasn't long before they were making out hot and heavy. Just as B.L reached for Konrad's shirt buttons he pulled back breathing heavily and said "We'd best stop before we get caught." B.L nodded and sat up, she went to the bathroom and took a shower then came back to her room wrapped in a towel. Konrad raised his eyebrows at her and gave her a wolfish look before he went to take a shower while she got dressed. B.L put on a pair of tight jeans and a halter top with her cowboy boots. She blew her hair dry and then curled it in big soft waves with her hot rollers. Konrad put on his good jeans and a t-shirt and his boots when he came out of the shower. Then they left for the Boar's Nest. At the Boar's Nest Konrad held the door open for B.L and when they walked in they could see Luke setting up front with the band along with Dixie who was scantily dressed almost making B.L's eyes pop out. Then she spotted Lori at a table in the back. B.L didn't want to be anywhere near either one of her cousins tonight she was there to have fun and couldn't do that if she was 'babysitting' Dixie or ended up in an argument or fight with Lori. So they chose a table in the middle away from both of the other two Davenport girls and Luke who was sitting up front with Dixie at the Band's table.

Konrad gave Luke a look that said 'i don't want to be me either'. After Luke deserted him Konrad looked back at Luther and Cooter. If looks could kill he'd drop dead by now. Luther pointed at him and said "Mr. Duke I take it that you were the one who put that on my nieces neck?" Konrad nodded slightly and answered braver than he felt truth was he was shaking in his boots "yes sir" "Uncle Luther don't give him the third degree! It ain't the first time I've had one YOU just ain't never seen them before" Luther looked at BL, "I'll deal with you later. Right now I want to talk to Konrad. You are Jesse's nephew adn though I have had trouble with those cousins of yours around MY GIRLS before I thought you would respect the fact that I have opened my home to you and you flaunt in my face the fact you have interests in My neice instead of talking to me. I'd like to know your intents towards her?" B.L puts her hands on her hips and looks at Luther straight in the eye and says "I'm and adult what I do is MY business stop treating me like a child Uncle Luther." Konrad straightened his shoulders and said calmly with more confidence than he felt in the intimidating prescence of B.L's angry Uncle. "I don't know my exact intent sir but I do swear to you i WILL NOT hurt her." Luther glared at BL and informed her, "You both are living under MY roof. My roof, my rules, no back talk! I told you I'd get to you. Konrad hurting my neice wasnt' what I was getting at. First you hurt her YOU WILL DEAL WITH ME. Second I was worrying more about her reputation than whether you intended to hit her, cause THAT won't happen in this lifetime." B.L knew she was pushing it but opened her mouth again at the questioning of her reputation. "I AIN'T Lori Uncle Luther I been with one other boy back in highschool you know that! I don't flaunt my business all over the county either!" Konrad assured Luther "Her reputation will not come into question I promise you that. I will do nothing to make her reputation be questioned or bring shame upon her or the family." Luther pointed at BL, "I'm warning you I'll take you out back and tan your hide!" Then he turned to Konrad, "I will hold you to your word! And I WILL have no ROOM hoping at MY HOUSE!" Konrad nodded respectfully and answered quietly "yes sir understood" B.L thought about telling Luther Konrad didn't room hop he'd been in hers since the first night but thought better of it and kept her mouth shut for once.

B.L grabbed a lug wrench as she chased Lori out of the garage intent to kill. Konrad looked at Luther and Cooter and didn't like the looks he was gettin' one bit. He hoped B.L came back before they killed HIM. While he was nervously watching the two Davenport men B.L and Lori had just made their second lap around the town square B.L gaining on Lori. "LOREN WHEN I GET MY HANDS ON YOU I'M GONNA CLUB YOU UPSIDE THE HEAD WITH THIS WRENCH THEN WRING YER NECK!!!!" Lori just laughed and kept right on running going for another lap around the square. B.L decided she wasn't gonna catch Lori she was tiring and slowing down so gave the wrench a swing and sent it sailing and hit her intended target smacking Lori right in the head with it.....

The next morning B.L and Konrad woke up slipping downstairs in case anyone was home. After finishing the chores they decided to head to the garage, B.L took her hair down letting it hang loose fixing it over her neck she'd noticed a hickey when she'd put it up and knew her cousins or Luther was sure to spot it if she wore her hair up. Konrad helped her do the chores and then they decided to go to the garage. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ At the garage it was a slow morning, Luther and Cooter sat outside the garage watching the town begin to stir and eating donuts. B.L and Konrad came pulling up at the garage and got out it didn't pass unnoticed by Cooter that B.L's hair was down today over her ears instead of pushed behind them like she usually did when she wore it down. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lori saw Robin's car in the yard and saw red she just knew Robin was there and so early in the morning too. Surely the little snot hadn't got up the guts to stay with Luke she thought as she and Bo entered the house. Jesse.....

Lori had drank a little more at the Boar's Nest before Bo had taken her out of there tossed over his shoulder she hadn't been falling down drunk yet he just thought it was a good idea to get her out before any real trouble started. Dixie was still asleep she'd come in really late after the Boar's Nest had closed and she'd give Jeb a ride home.

B.L had watched it all and grumbled "can't take her nowhere she always starts trouble!" Konrad squeezed her hand lightly and said "don't worry about her we're here to have a good time." B.L nodded and they went back to listening to the band.

B.L and Konrad sat down at another table near by so that Cooter and B.L could 'watch' Dixie. Daisy came up to the table and took their orders. "What can I get ya'll?" Konrad looked at B.L to see what she wanted "what would you like B.L?" B.L answered "beer's good with me" Konrad ordered two beers and Daisy went to get them and Bos and Lori's beer and Jack. She came back with the orders and was relieved to see that Bo had been the one to want the beer although she wasn't sure Lori should drink Jack Daniels she hoped Bo kept her from drinking too much. She then gave Konrad and B.L their beers and Cooter his. The band was playing a slow song so Konrad asked B.L to dance and Bo asked Lori. Luke and Robin.....

Back at the garage Konrad looked at all of them and he just had to ask... "What happened at Luke's bachelor party? Why'd he get arrested?" Cooter leaned against the desk crossing his feet at the ankles folding his arms preparing to tell the story. Lori was glaring at him but he was ignoring it. "Everybody had been drinking already Bo there had called in a stripper and Luke had went to the bathroom. He saw this guy that had told Dixie previously to that one night on a date to 'put out or get out'. Luke took exception to that and taught the guy some manners." Konrad had started to grin when he heard Bo had got a stripper but it soon turned to a frown when he'd heard about what the guy had said to Dixie. He might not know Dixie that well but that didn't matter the guy shouldn't have treated her or any other girl like that. Cooter continued with his tale of that night "Well a fight broke out and Rosco got involved, Luke was resisting Rosco still intent on killing the guy he was fighting. State cops came in and tried to intervene Luke swung and hit one of 'em that's when the party ended cos they carted him off to jail." Konrad looked stunned but then recovered and looked at Bo saying "Wished I hadn't missed that now sounds like a real barn burner. Who'd Luke marry?" Well four fingers all pointed in Lori's direction, Konrad looked at her he could see right away Luke had got himself a spitfire. He asked "so why ain't Luke here with his wife.?" B.L piped up this time knowing Lori was going to probably retaliate later "They're divorced she's datin' Bo now." Bo could see Lori's eyes change color and he knew all hell was fixin' to break loose so suggested. "Let's all go get a beer at the Boar's Nest...Jeb's band is supposed to be there tonight." Everybody was quick to agree and started climbing in vehicles, Bo said to Lori. "Hey Lori you can ride with me since Midnight's drying." Lori agreed and climbed in the General Lee......

Cooter was the one to answer "Just the ususal, Lori's been playing follow the leader with Rosco again." "yeah then she found herself the baloney in the sandwich between two Rosco and Enos." B.L piped up. Lori looked up and scowled at B.L and said "well I got away didn't I?!" Dixie giggled that story sounded like a typical mess that Lori would find herself in. Then she turned her attention to more important things than Lori's shenanigans. She looked at the cozy way Konrad had his arms wrapped around B.L's waist as her cousin leaned against his chest while they watched Cooter work. Dixie raised her eyebrows ever since the new Duke had arrived in town and had been staying with them B.L had sure been happy. Walking around with this love sick calf look. And if she wasn't mistaken she'd heard giggling coming from B.L's room last night....

High Top Road Swamp Molly Hazzard Hustle

was it daisy or miz tizdale? I can't remember but seems like it was one of 'em.

Luther put his hands on his hips and looked at Lori with fire in his eyes, she had been running around the county raising hell at every chance she got. Lori however didn't care in the least she was repainting the dents on Midnight grinning like a possum. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ B.L had heard the commotion over the CB and looked over at Konrad they had been on a picnic and said. "That girl is gonna be the death of Uncle Luther one of these days." Konrad shook his head and laughed these Davenport girls sure were something else. They packed up the picnic stuff and got back in the Judge and headed out to the garage B.L knew that's where Lori would be hearing that she'd got out of the police cruiser sandwich. Pulling up at the garage B.L and Konrad got out and sauntered inside, B.L leaned over Lori's shoulder inspecting the damage to Midnight and said. "How does it feel to be the piece of boloney in a sandwich cuz?" Lori looked at B.L over her shoulder with a nasty look and pointed the air brush at her threateningly then went back to work when B.L backed off. Konrad had wandered over to where Cooter was working under the hood of a car and asked "These girls always this excitin?" Cooter looked up and shook his head and rolled his eyes replying "ALWAYS" B.L left Lori to her painting and wandered over to Konrad and Cooter putting her arm around Konrad's waist he leaned down and kissed her. They'd gotten real cozy since he'd come into town and was staying at the Davenport farm. She was surprised noone had noticed her hair was wet only halfway up her back and Konrad's wasn't wet at all. Things had gotten hot at the lake so they'd went skinny dipping.......

B.L. got in her silver 1970 GTO The Judge after work heding home with Konrad in his dark golden yellow mustang behind her. They pulled up at the farm and each climbed out of their cars. Before B.L could say a word she was pounced upon by an excited Dixie. "GUESS WHAT LUKE GOT ME FOR MY BIRTHDAY?!" B.L didn't get to ask what before she was told. "A CAR!! its a 1969 Dodge Charger!!" Dixie promptly dragged B.L over to check out the car leaving Konrad to just sorta stand there looking around. B.L and Dixie were soon crawling all over the car looking at it, B.L whistled low and asked grinning. "Where's Luke's body I know Uncle Luther killed him buyin' you this" Dixie was too excited to be bothered by the teasing and ignored it showing B.L this and that on the car finally after about 5 minutes Dixie saw the man standing in their yard that had followed B.L and asked "Who's THAT hunk?" B.L turned about 6 shades of red but she had to agree with Dixie's description. She went over to Konrad with Dixie following behind like a curious puppy. "This is Konrad Duke, Daisy's brother he lives in Atlanta with his Aunt on his mohter's side." Luther and Cooter both stopped what they were doing and came over welcoming Konrad to the farm, assuring him that B.L had been right in saying that he could stay there. Although neither was sure that was going to be a good idea from the looks all three girls were giving him then the dirty looks B.L and Lori were shooting at each other. There was sure to be fireworks between the two..... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Robin pulled up seeing Luke.....

B.L and Konrad were still dancing to a slow song when he dipped her she saw Bo and Lori at the bar. "Well lookie what the cat dragged in, your cousin and mine." Konrad stood B.L up and they walked over to the bar. Bo grinned sipping his beer as they approached the bar while he leaned against it.....

Lori swung into the Boar's Nest seeing B.L....B.L was taking out the trash to the dumpster when Lori pulled in like her tailpipe was on fire. Lori pulled around back and hid Midnight then climbed out and said. "B.L help Rosco's on my tail!" B.L sighed and shook her head dragging Lori in the back door of the Boar's Nest into the kitchen area. Once they were inside B.L put her hands on her hips and turned to Lori asking... "What'd you do now?" Lori crossed her arms and huffed "I didn't do nothin' why does everybody always think I did something?" B.L: "Cos you USUALLY DO do something!....Just stay here I've got to get back to work." Just as B.L came out of the kitchen Rosco came in and upto the bar asking. "Where's that no good trouble causing cousin of yers she was at the garage but gave me the slip." B.L giggled and then shook her head shrugging. "I got better things to do than keep track of Lori, Rosco. Now if you'll excuse me I got work to do." With that B.L walked to the other end of the bar letting herself out of the little swinging door there and started emptying ash trays into a bucket with screen wire over it. Lori meantime was waiting in the kitchen for B.L to come back. After a few minutes scanning the room Rosco left, Lori wasn't there. B.L went back to the kitchen and told Lori. "You can go he's gone....stay out of trouble!" Lori grinned and said "What's the fun in that. See ya later cousin." Lori walked out and over to the tree where she'd hidden Midnight under it's low hanging branches and climbed in starting up she tore out to who knows where but it was no doubt she'd find more trouble along the way. After Lori left B.L went back to work wiping tables and gathering up empty beer mugs. A tall well built muscular young man walked in and asked her. "Miss can you tell me where I can find a friend of mine?" B.L stopped what she was doing and nearly gasped at the sight of the man he was about her age. Recovering she said... "Well who ya lookin' for and maybe I can tell ya where they are." The young man with dark hair that hung to his chin and blue eyes flashed her a killer grin and said "I'm looking for Cooter Davenport" B.L returned the grin with a soft shy smile "he should be at the garage this time of day. He's my cousin." The blue eyed,dark haired man held out his hand blushing "excuse me I don't know where my manners are I'm Konrad Duke." B.L took the hand and tried not to gawk she said "I'm B.L Davenport." Konrad held her hand a little longer than necessary enchanted by her. Finally he snapped out of it and pulled his hand back. He ordered a beer and B.L took a break they sat down at a table and talked for a while. B.L was able to find out he was Daisy's brother and had been living in Atlanta with an aunt on their mother's side of the family after the death of their parents when Daisy was 6 and he was 8. Konrad asked "Would you like to dance?" Now Boss Hogg didn't like for the waitresses to get too cozy with the customers unless they were rich but B.L didn't care she accepted and the two danced a slow dance continuing their talk. Konrad told her he was there to visit his Uncle Jesse and cousins but the house was kind of crowded so he'd been hoping to stay with Cooter. B.L tried not to show her hopeful delight at the idea this man would be staying with them. She of course told him it'd be alright for him to stay they had a guest room. Konrad was sure glad to hear this and decided to wait till B.L got off work and go back to the farm with her....

Jeb nodded hanging his head and said "Yes sir" Before Jesse could say another word the phone rang Daisy answered it "Duke farm Daisy speaking" "Daisy this is Luther is Jesse around?" Daisy: "He's uh with Jeb right now can I take a message? Luther: "Well can ya get him it's important" Daisy went out and got Jesse in the woodshed to come to the phone Jeb giving her a greatful look for the reprieve her interruption had brought. Jesse trudged into the house and picked up the phone. Luther was as much in a rage as he had been when he left the DUke farm. "Jesse I just finished talking to Dixie." Jesse DO YOU KNOW WHAT THEY DID?" Jesse replies I was just getting to that with Jeb. LUther tells him, "He took her to the Indian caves, she was drinking, and as she put it she helped him 'relax'. He was also in her pants but she still denies they did anthing further!" Jesse turned red Jeb had better not have lied to him he thought or he'd give him double what he already had coming. After hanging up with Luther he went back out to the woodshed and said. "That was Luther he just had a very interesting talk with Dixie now I want to hear YOUR side of it!" Jeb........

B.L was doing her dangdest to stay away from the garage. She came out of a store just as Luke and Lori passed it looked like B.L was sneaking somewhere they stopped and Lori asked. "Whatcha doin' cuz?" B.L looked at them and said "I'm hidin' from Uncle Luther before MY sex life comes up for discussion. Shew is he ever mad at Dixie." Luke and Lori nodded and said at the same time "we know!" Cooter had split out of town like a scalded cat. He didn't want to get caught up in this one at all one bit.

After the General Lee had left town and Cooter, B.L and Dixie all knew Bo, Luke and Lori had got the contract from Boss they turned to go back in the garage and back to work. Suddenly B.L stopped getting a funny look from Dixie and Cooter as her mouth hung open in surprise then she said. "Dixie YOU DIDN'T? didja?" Cooter asked "didn't what?" He still hadn't noticed the hicky on Dixie's neck. B.L turned Dixie's head to where he could see the hicky his eyes nearly bugged out of his head at the sight, he asked "WHO did THAT?" Dixie glared at B.L for showing Cooter and turned 10 shades of purple. Cooter was still waiting on an answer tapping his foot. Dixie sighed and finally answered, Jeb but we didn't go ALL the way just made each other happy and he didn't need a cold shower then. Well just as the words 'Jeb but we didn't go all the way' came out of Dixie's mouth Luther walked in the garage. He turned about 20 shades of purple and was coming toward the three like a charging bull Cooter and BL RAN!
