This is my new zax fanfic; I am not sure if I should continue this or not as it is very different to other fanfic so please tell me. But if I do continue there is a major plot twist coming up, so please reviews and sorry for any mistakes.

CHAPTER 1

"Pub?" Charlie asked Zoe

All the staff as usual were gathered around reception, it was the end of the day and of Couse everyone was going to the pub after a long and tiring shift.

"No" Zoe sighed as she rubbed the side of her nose, briefly closing her eyes "family thing"

"Since when did you associate with your family?" Charlie laughed thinking that this was just a Zoe excuse meaning that she was seeing someone.

"Since I realised how desperate I really am" Zoe ran her hand threw her hair not realising that what she had said to Charlie had not only been heard by the rest of the staff but by max too

"Zoe Hanna isn't desperate" Charlie smiled as he placed his hand on Zoe's back "what about I come over later, with a bottle of wine"

"Yea" Zoe tried to smile "anyway I better get ready"

Zoe slowly walked to the staffroom feeling the all eyes were on her. Taking out the traditional clothes she was wearing out, Zoe sighed placing her head on her cold locker.

"Very….em..Indian?" came a voice from behind Zoe, Zoe immediately turned round and tried to smile at max.

"You do know that I'm getting changed" Zoe commented as she placed the pink fabric back inside her locker

"Why else would I be in here?" asked max as he turned Zoe round kissing her briefly

"So much for me putting the clothes on and sneaking out of here" Zoe rolled her eyes

"why would you do that?" max smiled as he once again turned zoe round checking that no one was watching them

"Because I have a pretty good Idea what is happening tonight and when I does, it won't be pretty" Zoe sighed slamming her locker shut once she had, again taken her cloths out

"If it's anything to do with you, it will be gorgeous, never kind pretty" max smiled as he once again slipped his hands around Zoe's waist

"max I'm serious" zoe pushed max off and walked over to the door "just leave me alone, your better not being around when the bomb goes off" zoe commented as she slammed the staffroom door behind her

Zoe sneaked into the on call room, hoping that nobody would need it giving her enough time to get ready and hopefully make a quick escape.

As Zoe finished her makeup, there was a knock at the door. Charlie was standing outside having been told by max where Zoe was and what she had said.

"You ready?" asked Charlie to which he got no answer

Charlie opened the door fully, until he could see Zoe standing there dressed from top to toe in bright pink.

"Very traditional" commented Charlie smiling

"Shut up" Zoe rolled her eyes checking to see if anyone was around, already planning her escape
