So I know that I am in the middle of writing another story but I was sad that there was basically no mentions of Zoe and Max in the last episode, so I have written a small one-shot about what I think should've happened

Zoe's POV
When I walked in on Max the other day, I was distraught to see who he was with. I know I had always pushed him away, but now I was ready, we had a spark, and I wanted to carry it on. I had missed him so much I didn't know what to do with myself. It was like there was a hole in the middle of me. I was lonely, even though I was living with Dylan, I felt more alone than ever, I missed the time when I fell asleep in Max's arms, I missed waking up to Max's smiling face, and I missed his cheekiness the way he got away with everything.
When I walked in this morning, I must've looked bad because Louise asked me if I was alright, I nodded and carried on to the office I shared with Ash. He was away still, so I had it to myself. I sat down and put my head in my hands. Shortly after, I heard a gentle tapping at the door, I sighed and shouted
'Come in!' But nobody came in. I dragged myself out of my chair and walked over to the door, opening it and peeping my head out. There was nobody in sight, but then I looked down and to my surprise, sitting there was a big cardboard box. On top there was a note that read:
Sorry,
I hope you're ok, meet me in my office in 5

I smiled, and picked up the box and dumped it on my desk. I picked up the scissors on the desk, and slid them along the sello-tape that was sticking the two flaps on the top together. Finally, I lifted the two flaps up, to reveal a huge bunch of red roses and a box of chocolates in the shape of a heart. The roses brought tears to my eyes, the last time I had flowers given to me was on the day I first kissed Max.
Then I noticed another note on top of the chocolates,
I know you well enough to know that when you are upset, you like to eat chocolate xx
I smiled at this, he did know me well, too well to just be friends. I made the decision, to go and see him and make things right.
I walked up the stairs towards his cubby hole at a brisk pace, and reached the door, I took a deep breath before opening the door. Inside, Max was sitting in big chair. As I entered, he smiled at me.
'Max, I'm sorry for pushing you away-' I began before I was interrupted.
'No, it's me, I'm sorry, for not waiting longer.' I looked at Max before pulling in for a kiss, Max pushing me down on the table. I sighed contentedly, the hole in my heart was filled.
