Chapter 1
Max walker was the new porter at Holby City Emergency Department. He had been at the ED a week and already he was in a relationship with Dr Zoe Hanna, the lead consultant. The two met when Max went out for a fag because Zoe was already stood out in the front. The two got talking and it made Zoe quite happy because Max was the first man that had made her smile and who she actually like since Nick. When Nick left, she thought about him for days hoping that he would come back. But he hasn't, and it had been over a year now. So she was happy that Max was actually taking a liking in her. Anyway, so because Max cheekily asked her to give him a cigarette, he repaid her by taking her out for a drink. The two had a very good night and the chemistry had bubbled between them both. The only awkward thing was that Max was Robyn's brother and Robyn worked at the ED, but they didn't let that stop them!
Zoe was making her way to her office when a disaster happened. She heard this snap noise come from underneath her. At first she thought that she had stood on something, but she found it very difficult to walk. She was glad her office was only a few steps away so looking around to make sure there was no one around, and hobbled into her office. She kicked her shoes off at the door like she normally does and that was when she realised. The heel of her shoe had snapped off.
"Oh shit" Zoe said sighing. She had no other shoes with her and the day had only just begun. There was a knock on the door so Zoe quickly went and sat at her desk so that nobody could see. Fortunately, it was only Max seeing how she was.
"Hey Zo, what's up?" He said looking at the expression on Zoe's face.
"If i tell you, you must no tell a soul or there will be consequences. You understand?" Zoe said making it very clear to max
"Yes I promise I will not tell a soul." Max said smirking because he had an odd feeling about it.
Zoe rummaged under her desk and pulled out her broken shoe. Max just died of laughter.
"It's not funny you know Max, I have no other shoes for the day." Zoe said trying not to laugh herself because in all honesty it was quite funny, but she didn't want Max knowing that.
"Well, luckily for you, I know just how to fix them, or at least for today anyway."
"Erm, do I really trust you...? Lead the way" Zoe said sighing and getting up and picking her shoes up and following Max to his 'office'. From there he went and got a glue stick out of the drawer.
"So your plan to save my shoe was to glue it together with a pritt stick?!" Zoe said not knowing whether to laugh or to be annoyed. So she laughed and they have it a go.
"Yes, but get real Max, it's probably not going to be strong enough." Zoe said
"Ah, but you don't know what else I was going to do. I glue it to some blue tac and then glue that to the shoe." Max said laughing!
"So my shoe and life depend on you fixing it with glue and blue tac. But okay, it's worth a try." Zoe said
"And if you fall, I'll be there to catch you!" Max said
"Oh great." Zoe said handing max the shoe, who then glued everything together. Zoe put the show on and walked towards the door. It worked! Well for now anyway. The two headed back to the ED to find the rest of the ED staff arriving. However, it was too good to be true, because Zoe's heal snapped off again, making Zoe slip. But luckily Max was behind her and caught her before she hit the floor. The two just laughed again.
"Well that worked, didn't it Max." Zoe said scowling
"Yeah, what's plan two?" Max said.
"You know what, I really don't know!" Zoe said picking up her shoe and walking towards her office. She had to think of something and it needed to be fast. Then he had a brainwave as rushed out to find Max, bumping into Tess on the way.
"Sorry Tess I didn't see you there. I need to find Max" Zoe said.
Tess raised her eyebrows at her
"Not in that way. We have a crisis" Zoe said not wanting to give too much away
Tess looked down and saw that Zoe only had one shoe on.
"Zoe, where's your other shoe?" Tess asked curiously.
"Long story, I'll explain once I find max and sort something out." Zoe said hurrying off. Eventually she found him.
"Max, I have an idea." She said
"Come on then, tell me" max said laughing.
"Wrap it in bandages and secure it with hard plaster. It's worth a try right?" She revealed
"Yes, come on then let's go an find some" max said walking towards the door with Zoe following again. They headed for the resource cupboard to get their equipment! They got bandages and the plaster stuff and took it back to Zoe's office to fix it. It took 5 minutes to put together rightly and then 15 minutes for it to set before Zoe put it back on her foot. However you could tell that it was a stuck together because her shoe was black, so they went back to the cupboard and got black over coat and put that on. It didn't look as bad now so they left it at that. Thankfully it worked but Zoe stayed in her office doing her paperwork because she didn't want to take any risks until she was certain it was safe. Max however had to get working.
An hour later, Zoe walked into the hospital and started to get on with treating patients. The day went pretty quickly and wasn't long before Zoe was in the pub with her friends. But as they were leaving Zoe's stupid shoe snapped again because she stood on something hard which had caused it to come apart again.
"Shit, not again." Zoe said
"What?" Tess asked who happened to be behind her at the time.
"Oh right, well, this morning, my heel snapped off my shoe. Max said to fix it with glue and blue tac, but it just snapped again. So then we bandaged it up and then put plaster on it. That's what you can see. And now I've stood on something sharp and it had snapped again." Zoe said frustrated, but glad that the day was over and she could just throw it away when she returned home.
"Oh dear! Are you walking home as well?" Tess asked
"Yes, oh damn I forgot about that."
"Well in driving so I'll give you a lift if you like?" Tess offered.
"Thanks Tess, you're a star!"
The two got in the car and Tess dropped Zoe off at home where max was already waiting for her to get in.
"I was expecting you to be later than this!" He said laughing.
"Yes, but I stumbled across another problem." She said holding up her shoe again. Max literally fell to the floor of laughter, especially when Zoe took her other shoe off and threw them both in the bin.
"If you don't stop laughing then I'm going to snog your face off to make you shut up!" She said, but he didn't stop laughing so she shoved him over the sofa arm and jumped on top of him and snogged him!
Half an hour later, they surfaced for breath because Zoe wanted some food. She had a quick snack and the two of them went up into Zoe's bedroom. They put their pyjamas on and then clambered into the bed! They began kissing and upper body fondling. Then Max started to pull Zoe's trousers down, as did Zoe to Max and then Max moved on to pulling her T-shirt off. It wasn't long before the two were fully naked and had big smiles on their faces.
"You ready to do this?" Max asked Zoe.
"Of course I am!" Zoe said nodding. She groaned quite loudly as she felt Max lower himself down and enter her. She was enjoying this because it had been a while since she last did it. She could feel Max moving around and thrusting at her, Zoe just groaned happily and wished that good things could come out of this. It wasn't long before Zoe had fallen asleep, so Max came out of her to let her sleep peacefully, then fell asleep himself!
