This is just a thought I had about zax and what if they had a baby?
I am not sure whether I should continue this or not cause it is very different to some of my other zax fic's, so please tell me! :)
Some of the medical information in this fanfic is probably not right because obvious I am not a doctor, anyway please R&RJ

Chapter 1

Water filled Zoe's eyes as she listened to the high pitched beep coming out of the heart machine, this sound was oh so familiar to zoe as she heard it almost every day but that didn't mean that she could ever get used to it or the effect it could have on family's if it ever went silent. A tear escaped Zoe's eye as she glanced at the vibrant line bouncing across the dark screen.

Zoe gently lowered her finger and smiled as it was gripped by a tiny baby's hand. But this baby wasn't any baby; it was baby Katie Amelia Hanna Walker, daughter or Max Walker and Zoe Hanna.

Zoe had given birth to Katie five hours ago, twenty two days early and yet she had still refused to have Max in the room with her. Zoe wouldn't let anyone see her weak and helpless, she had denied Max access to her room and would continue doing so until her tears stopped which was very unlikely to happen any time soon.

"Miss Hanna" spoke a man in a very deep voice

Zoe immediately snapped out of her daydream and turned to face the man, standing up in the process.

"Miss Hanna" began the rather tall doctor "we have done all the regular tests and what we first thought had just been confirmed"

Zoe looked down at the ground before falling back onto the chair she had previously been sitting on, bad news was all she needed right now.

"We obviously don't know what caused you to go into early labour but what we do know is that your daughter is a very healthy baby, right size and weight" the doctor told zoe "we just needed these tests to confirmed it and they have"

Zoe didn't know what to say or do; she had automatically been prepared for the worst. Zoe had only held Katie very briefly before the doctors had rushed her off for emergency tests.

"…..and as you know that means that we can take all these nasty wires away, you will be able to hold her again" the doctor told zoe as he headed towards the door letting the nurses walk into the room to detach the machine

"There is a very worried looking man back there waiting to see you" added the doctor when the nurses took the machine away "should I send him in?"

"Please" replied Zoe before turning her attention to Katie

The doctor kindly nodded as he exited the room, Zoe stood up and walked to the window which had a view of the entrance of the emergency department, something she hadn't seen for the past six months.

Zoe and Max had been very careful making sure that no one knew about their relationship, Zoe had took a year's leave from work that had begun the day of her three months scan leaving Connie and guy the only people who knew about Zoe's pregnancy, and of Couse if they wanted to keep their heads attached to the rest of their body they would never tell another living soul.

What Zoe dreaded was the day that was soon to come when she would once again have to face her colleagues, but for now that thought was pushed to the side as Zoe felt Max's strong protective arms slide around her waist.
