Zoe's POV:
"Hey beautiful" Max said as I woke up just like he did every morning.
"Morning baby" I said leaning over and kissing him.
"We still on for tonight" Max asked me. Tonight was date night, neither of us have ever done this before so we didn't know how it would pan out.
"Of course we are" I said. I turned on my side, picking up my phone off of the bedside cabinet.
"Oh shit" I stated.
"What you done now?" Max joked.
"Have you seen the time?" I asked him.
"Nope, couldn't move had your head on me remember" he said smirking and I rolled my eyes at him.
"We have to be in work in twenty minutes" I told him but he didn't seem too bothered.
"And? We're late quite a lot Zo" he said looking at me smirking.
"Yeah but Connie already hates me and since she took my job only last week I need to be there on time Max" I said and he just nodded.
"Better get ready then" he said jumping up pulling the quilt off of me. I laughed at him as he went in the shower. I followed him in to save time but neither of us really minded.
"Wash my hair for me, I can't be bothered" I asked him smirking to see if he would actually do it and he did. We got out of the shower getting dressed and going over to my mirror. I started on my make-up as Max turned my straighteners on and dried my hair with my hair dryer as they heated up. By the time I finished my make-up, Max had just finished doing my hair for me. I sorted his hair out for him and made sure we had everything that we needed before leaving my house. I stopped the car around the corner from work so that Max could get out. He leant over me, kissing me before getting out and beginning the short walk to the hospital as I drove the rest of the way. I got there just as my shift started knowing Max was going to be late.
"Zoe I see that you're late again" Connie said walking up to me.
"No I'm on time actually if you check the time" I said and she huffed before walking off. Max walked in as I got to reception and rushed to the staff room to get changed. I don't think many people realised that he was late and if they did they would probably just put it down to pulling. Max came out of the staff room and over to reception where I was still stood; before he had a chance to say anything he had Robyn on his case.
"You can't just text me saying you're staying at your girlfriend's place and not say who it is Max" she shouted so that everyone would hear that he had a girlfriend.
"Leave it out, I didn't tell you who it was because it's none of your business but by the way I'm staying at hers again tonight" he said rolling his eyes at her.
"You're never home anymore Max, you're at your latest slapper's house all the time" Robyn said, her voice rising.
"She isn't a slapper Robyn, I admit everyone else I've been with in the last few years has been but this one isn't she's difference" Max said and I could sense a smile tugging at my lips so I just looked down.
"Whatever" Robyn said walking off. Nice to be called a slapper by your sister's boyfriend in front of all of your colleagues, luckily for me they didn't know that she was talking about me. I began to walk towards cubicles knowing that a patient will probably need transferring and then I can get out of the department for a while.
"Lofty, any patients need transferring" I said as I got to the nurses station.
"Yeah one needs to go up to Keller" he said after checking the board.
"I'll go, I need to get out of this place and away from our perfect clinical lead" I said sarcastically.
"You've only been here five minutes" he said laughing giving me the notes and saying he will say they needed a doctor to go with them.
"Max take this patient up with Zoe" Lofty shouted over to Max. He went into the cubical unclipping the brakes on the bed and began pushing the patient to the lift.
"Thanks for earlier" I said as we waited for it.
"For what" he said smiling at me.
"What Robyn said, it's nice to know that you care" I said smirking.
"Anything for my girl" he said looking at me. I wanted to kiss him so much right then but I couldn't, not in front of everyone. The lift opened and we got in. The patient was looking between us repeatedly and it was starting to annoy me now.
"What" I said sharply.
"Zo remember the rules I taught you" Max said smirking and I just glared at him.
"There's definitely something going on between you two" the patient, David said.
"No there isn't" I said abruptly.
"There is and I quote 'anything for my girl'" David said and I just sighed.
"There isn't anything going on Max is just a bit of a flirt and always calls everyone his girl" I said trying to cover it up.
"That's what they all say" he said as the doors opened. We did the patient hand over before walking to the stairs knowing it would take us longer that way.
"I'm just a flirt am I" he said when we were a close enough distance away from everyone one the ward. He put his hands on my sides pushing me forward slightly before he began to tickle me knowing how much I hated it.
"I'm sorry I'm sorry" I said though laughter as we got to the staircase. Max stopped tickling me knowing it was too dangerous to do on the stairs. I stood on my tip toes and kissed him. He grabbed my hand pulling me down the stairs.
"You can't hide from her forever you know" Max said and I just sighed.
"I know but I can avoid her for as long as it takes" I said and he just laughed.
"Where we going tonight" I asked him looking at him.
"Wouldn't you like to know" he said slyly pulling me down the stairs until we reached the ED. He released my hand and kissed me quickly before we walked back into the chaos.
