That's for all the reviews left on the first chapter, I have had such a good response so have decided to continue! enjoy this chapter and It would be great if you could review and share your thoughts
people have asked me why max wasn't there for the birth, that's because zoe didn't want him there as i said in the first chapter. and max does/did know zoe was pregnant that's why he was waiting outside.


Chapter 2

Zoe's eyes were fixed on the yellow ambulance Jeff and Tamzin were wheeling a patient out of, she missed the ED, when she was working there was never a dull moment whether it was Max constantly flirting with her or the banter with Noel, Louise and Rita.

Zoe's eyes moved to her right shoulder which Max's head now rested, she smiled slightly as he spoke.

"I've missed you"

"You're not going soft on me Mr Walker, are you?" was Zoe response

Zoe bit her lip slightly when she heard Max laughing, but after all it hadn't even been twenty four hours. When Zoe felt the weight of Max's head lift off her shoulder she spun round gazing up at him.

"What were you looking at?" asked Max as her peered threw the window

"Well Max we are in a room facing the ED entrance what do you think I'm looking at, the car park?" answered Zoe

Zoe rolled her eyes and looked to the side where she could just about see the edge of Katie's crib, when Zoe glanced back at Max he was smiling.

"What?" said Zoe laughing slightly

"When the doctor was in here did he mention how long this mood would last?" asked Max seriously

Zoe laughed as she clasped into Max's arms, placing her head on his chest. She wanted to say sorry but that wasn't Zoe Hanna's style.

"I'm glad the fun Zoe Hanna's back" commented Max

Zoe immediately pushed her head off Max's chest, taking a step back as well as putting her hands back so that she could feel the window.

"Are you telling me that's when I was pregnant, I wasn't fun" said Zoe trying her best to be serious

"Well Zoe you were always tried, moody and overall pregnant so, no, you weren't that girl everyone wanted to be around at a party" answered Max while raising an eyebrow

"Cheeky" commented Zoe as she stepped forward and playfully hit Max

Zoe lent forward kissing Max while smiling at his last comment. Max immediately looked down as he noticed that Zoe had taken his hand.

"Aren't you forgetting something, or someone?" said Zoe which brought a smile to Max's face

Zoe once again put her hands behind her back and started to walk backwards towards Katie's crib while Max followed taking equally as small steps.

"Don't you have any questions, whether it's a boy or a girl?" asked Zoe

Max smile widened as he watched Zoe stop when she reached Katie's crib.

"So you have had the baby then" commented Max smiling

"Oh no Max, I am in labour but at the same time just casually walking around the room talking to you" said Zoe sarcastically

"Sorry" surrendered Max throwing his arms in the air

Zoe turned around and genially lifted Katie up, talking to her.

"Katie Amelia Hanna Walker, this is your daddy"

Zoe slowly passed Katie into Max's arms.
