Zoe and Max-In The Clear Yet?
A/N
So this is a sequel to "To Stay Or To Go?" and the prequel to "New Faces and Old Secrets". I hope you enjoy!
It's Zax, and a bit sad but I promise that there is a happy ending!
I'm sorry that the first chapter is so short, but future chapters will be longer! (Promise!)
Reviews welcome,

In all her life, Zoe Hanna never thought that she would fall for someone way younger than her. Especially a porter. She was a Doctor in a very high position. For goodness' sake, why had she fallen for Max, of all people? Ugh, she was crap at relationships.
Briefly, she remembered the stream of failed relationships which had come before Max. she closed her eyes and locked them away in a dusty old box at the back of her mind where they belonged.
Max adored Zoe. She was funny, , lovable… unless you were on the wrong end of one of her bollockings, of course. But 99% of the time, she was lovely.
But, of course, he was far too young for her, as she'd told him on several occasions. Their love affair had been brief, yet Max believed it could last forever, that it could develop into something more. How stupid could he get?! She obviously believed that it was only a fling. Max, on the other hand, had been naïve.
Oh well, another lesson learnt. Don't fall for people that you can't have, because it bloody hurt.
Max decided to call Zoe and see if she was okay. It was a Saturday night, she'd probably be asleep in front of the TV, a glass of wine in her hand.
He decided to call her, see if she was okay.
He got his phone out of his pocket and dialled the now-familiar number.
She didn't pick up straightaway. Max sighed and held the phone to his ear for a couple of seconds longer.
Eventually, somebody finally picked up the phone, but it wasn't Zoe.
"Hi Max, it's Robyn. Zoe's had a car crash." His sister's voice told him.
"I'm on my way." Max rang off and got his jacket on.
