It was Monday morning and the early morning winter sun shone through the small gap in the curtains. Zoe slowly shifted in bed, rolling over so she could reach her phone on the bedside table. 6:30 am she had just enough time to have a shower, get dressed and sort her hair and makeup out.

She'd just got out of the shower when her phone buzzed. "Hey beautiful, thank you so much for yesterday the balloon ride was brilliant not as brilliant as spending time with you was though" MJxxx. The thing she just couldn't quite get her head round was the fact that how could she a consultant have fallen head over heals in love with a porter. Not that it really mattered to her all she cared about was the fact that she had found someone who treated her like a princess and max made her so happy. "I'm glad you enjoyed it, only the best for you my prince" SMxxx

After replying to max she jumped into her car and made her way to the ED. She parked and after giving herself one last check in the mirror exited her car and headed for the doors.

Max who had been watching her from afar ran a little to catch up with Zoe cheekily hitting her bum in the process. She quickly spun round, and set her eyes upon max who was standing grinning behind her. "Will you stop that, it's inappropriate we are at work" Zoe warned, a smile creeping up the corner of her lips. "Yer whatever, I love you, you know" max replied.

"Yeah so you've said, I love you too" "Now go, before the others start to suspect something, don't fancy being the ED gossip just yet. Meet me on the roof at lunch" max obeyed, "I look forward to it" he said grinning like he'd just won the lottery.

He still couldn't believe that Zoe choose he of all people. He felt so privileged to have her she was his princess and nothing or no one could change that.
