So when Beau Thompson a popular football player asked her on a date she runs from the opportunity not wanting to have to deal the emotional stress. But something about him makes her want to trust him and nothing stops him from showing up at her doorstep and taking her on the date.
At the end of the night the two share a kiss, Zoe realises what's happening and panics running from any and all connection with anyone. Continuing with her plan that she's had since she was fourteen, Zoe packs her bags and runs from her life in Arana Hills to somewhere she hopes no one will find her.
