Hey everyone, so this is my Zax FanFic and it starts after the episode where Zoe and Max kiss in the ED, I'm hoping that it will develop into an exciting story. Thinking of having a flash back to the moment Max talks about as to why he is apologising to her. Anyway, hope you all enjoy! Please R&R. Lolly x

It was the day after, Max had poured out his heart to Zoe at the end of their shift, and that they'd shared a passionate kiss in the reception area of Holby ED. Max woke up, and remembered the events of the day before. He lay in bed next to Zoe, smiling at her as he realised he no longer had to hide his affection for her in public. He could walk up behind her and hold her waist; he could walk into the ED with her, hand in hand and kiss her goodbye, till the end of the shift.

"Max, stop staring at me, whilst I'm trying to sleep," Max couldn't help but smile, he couldn't help but love her even when she was telling him off ,"Sorry, I couldn't help it! You just looked so beautiful, plus I couldn't believe you were actually quiet for once." He braced himself, as he knew that she would usually playfully hit him at such a comment, "You're lucky I'm still half asleep, otherwise you wouldn't still be smiling." Zoe rolled over and snuggled up to him, he placed his arm round her waist and kissed her neck.

"I love you Zoe," she rolled over, so she was facing him and smiled, "I love you Mr Walker." He tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and cupped her face," I mean it you know." He paused and sighed, sitting up and starred out the window. "Max?" Zoe looked really concerned, she was now sitting up, he turned to her and held her hand," Zoe about before, I didn't mean what I said, when you left, I felt like I was losing half my heart, so when you came back and said it was still over, I was just too emotional. I couldn't handle it but I was the selfish one, I should have thought about how it would affect you. Thank you for forgiving me baby. The truth is Zoe, you're gorgeous, Smart, Funny, and I'm serious about us, I've fallen for you and I want everyone to know just how much, I want them to know that this isn't just a bit of fun and that it isn't a fling because right now, this feels like it's for keeps." Zoe was speechless, she didn't know what to say, and before she'd realised a tear slid down her face. "I'm sorry, are you okay?" Max starred, desperately searching for an answer. "No, I'm amazing, I have a gorgeous man, that loves me, who I don't even deserve, and things are just right for once," she pulled him close and they shared a long and passionate kiss.

*2 hours later*

Zoe parked her car, outside the ED, and smiled at Max, after touching up her lipstick, she took a deep breath. She opened the car door, "ready?" he smiled back and winked, "ready!"

What did Max say to her before? How will Max and Zoe find being together publicly? What will people say? I hope you enjoyed the first chapter and I'll be updating soon…
