As Zoe left the ED to go on her break she said goodbye to her boyfriend Max and took one last look at the ED before she left for her break. She didn't actually know what she was going to do on her break but she knew she would think of something. At first she thought she could visit her mum in Liverpool but then again she hadn't seen her since she started working at Holby, they did call each other but that often ended up in arguments. Zoe was about to leave when she heard a familiar voice, she turned around and was shocked to see who it was.
"Linda", Zoe said.
Linda and Zoe hugged each other, they hadn't seen each other since Linda's leaving party so it was a surprise she was back in Holby. After the hug Zoe just stared at Linda.
"What are you doing back", Zoe asked.
"Came to see you", Linda replied.
"I'm going on a break", Zoe replied.
"Why", Linda asked.
"This new girl Connie she's after my job", Zoe replied.
"How's going on a break going to help", Linda asked.
"I don't have to see her face", Zoe replied.
"Fair enough", Linda replied.
Zoe drove Linda back to her house and Zoe poured Linda a cherry coke while she did some tidying. Linda turned Zoe's TV on while she waited. After Zoe had finished she sat on the sofa next to Linda and they had a catch up. All of a sudden Linda had an idea of what Zoe could do on her break from the ED.
"You could go on holiday", Linda said.
"But where to", Zoe asked.
"Spain", Linda replied.
"Linda since when have you seen me in a mini skirt or shorts", Zoe asked.
"Where your dresses", Linda replied.
"Ok", Zoe answered.
Zoe and Linda went to book the holiday and paid half the amount of money each disprite Zoe offering to pay it all three times. Once the holiday was booked, Zoe went home and packed her things. Zoe put her cigarettes in her hand luggage but she had to leave her lighter behind. Zoe got into a taxi with Linda and they drove to the train station. They had just missed the Liverpool train so had to wait another hour and a half.
"Only us", Zoe said.
Zoe and Linda brought a coffee from the cafe and Linda also brought a packet of crisps. They paid and then sat in the waiting room, it was silent except from Linda eating her crisps. Zoe got bored of waiting she just wanted to board the train. The hour and a half was going really slowly and it felt like forever. The train finally arrived and Zoe and Linda got on and found seats. Linda sat by the window and Zoe sat next to her. They had to wait five minutes before the train started moving. Zoe had her suitcase above her and her bag on her lap while Linda did the same.
"I can't wait to see your house", Zoe said.
"You'll get a surprise then", Linda replied.
Zoe giggled as Linda just looked at her, the train stopped at a stop and more people got on the train. The next stop was Liverpool. They got off the train and into Linda's car. Linda drove to her house as Zoe looked very excited about going to Linda's.
