A/N: I think 'Trying Not To Love You' By Nickelback Explains Sam & Tom really well. Have a listen and let me know what you think and see if you agree again thanks for the reviews. Much appreciated. You may think Zoe's a little harsh to Sam in this chapter. But Zoe's only doing it because she cares. I wanted to show a little bit of they're friendship as well and also quick warning left on a cliff hanger.

*Later That Day*

Sam's shift was slowly coming to an end she'd gone against Zoe's wishes and had gone out to the fire. To help Dixie and Jeff and when she had returned with them bringing the trolley in to a furious looking Zoe. Sam was sure going to get some ear ache for her actions. Not just that the cramps had started again. With this Sam hadn't asked the patient whether they had any allergies.

And had proceeded with giving pain relief only for the patient to have a near death allergic reaction. Sam had never endangered a patient before. She was angry at herself for letting her personal affairs interfere with her work. For the second time that day Sam found herself in Zoe's office waiting to hear her fate.

"Sam I told you, you were on cubicle duty didn't I, and you objected to my orders. And not only that you let your personal affairs interfere with your work and with that you endangered the life of a patient. I have no choice not to suspend you. You can come back in a few days once you've taken some time out. You are in no fit state to be working as it is. What was I thinking letting you work in your situation. Get out of my sight before I change my mind about reporting it." Zoe finished taking a breath.

Sam nodded in silence. One more screw up and she would be out on her ear with no job. But endangering the life of a patient was one thing she'd never done before and already she regretted her actions not sticking to cubicles. She should have known going against Zoe's wishes would have backfired big time.

Sam left the office soon later ashamed at herself but she pushed it to one side when she noticed Tom waiting for her. He'd heard. She didn't think she could bear another telling off especially from her boyfriend. Tom looked at her with concern. Before he approached her.

"So what did she say?" He asked

"Suspended" Sam muttered so quietly almost as if she was ashamed. She walked away from him wanting to leave as soon as she possibly could. Meanwhile as she left Tom hung back and decided to speak to Zoe himself. To see if he could try to get her to change her mind about Sam's suspension

He knocked on the door and he heard her say come in so he opened the door and closed it behind himself. Before he walked in Zoe looked up from the work that she was doing.

"I hear you suspended Sam?" Tom asked.

"Yes I did Tom. Sam left me with no choice" Zoe started.

"But she made one mistake," Tom muttered.

"Yes but she endangered the life of a patient and in my book that's a suspension. The patient could have died Tom" Zoe said trying to get her point across.

"But Sam's a brilliant doctor" Tom protested.

"Yes and I couldn't agree with you more there Tom. But Sam's in no fit state to be working as it is. She should have taken my offer this morning to take a few days out and come back when she's physically capable" Zoe said.

But something Zoe said caught Tom's attention and he changed the conversation all together.

"What do you know that I don't?" He asked raising an eyebrow.
