Zoe's POV:

"Sorry but who are you" Max asked, I never knew he could be so polite.

"Nick Jordan, who are you" Nick replied. This can't be happening. Max froze to the spot tightening his arms around my waist, I'm guessing he's heard about mine and Nick's history.

"What are you doing here Nick?" I asked, still shocked that he was stood in front of me.

"I'm in Holby for today and tomorrow so I thought I would come and see you and what Connie has tried to do to my department" He said, so he rocks up here unxpectantly and still has the cheek to say it's his department?

"It's Zoe's department now" Max said and I just smiled up to him. I realised then that I was still in his arms so I got out of them walking round and sitting at my desk. I could see though the window that Connie and Cal was coming.

"It was my department first" Nick said sharply.

"Yeah and it was Harry Harper's before that" I added and me and Max just laughed knowing that we could go back further. "And Max Gallagher's before that" I said.

"Shut up Zoe" Was all Nick could say before Connie and Cal came in.

"Nick Jordan, what do we owe this pleasure" Connie said, I could tell by the tone of her voice that her and Nick don't get along.

"Sorry but I'm trying to talk to Zoe here Connie" he said before turning back towards me. "You know I still love you Zoe, I always will. Come to Michigan with me?" he asked me. I was completely froze to the spot for a few seconds before I realised all eyes were on me waiting for an answer.

"I don't love you anymore Nick and I won't just drop everything to go back to Michigan with you. It was your choice to leave Holby and now it's my choice to stay" I said and I could tell he was annoyed that I had rejected him in front of people.

"You're going to stay here to be with him" he said pointing towards Max and Connie and Cal's facial expression's changed instantly and smirked.

"Zoe's happy with Max, she doesn't need you anymore Jordan so do us all a favour and leave" Connie said and smiled towards me whilst Cal wrapped his arms around her waist.

"He's a porter" Nick said causing us all to laugh.

"Are you really that pathetic?" I asked him and he just looked at me with a blank expression on his face. Max walked round to me purposely walking into Nick on the way and wrapped his arms around me causing me to automatically relax.

"Just go will you, Zoe obviously doesn't want you here she's happy with this idiot" Cal said causing us all to laugh apart from Max.

"Thanks mate, guess that means you're getting first round tonight" Max stated causing Cal to sulk. Nick walked towards the door and slammed it on the way out before leaving the hospital.

"So, was you ever going to tell us?" Connie said still in Cal's arms.

"I could say the same to you" I said and we both just laughed.

"Keep it to ourselves?" Connie asked and I agreed instantly.

"Zo, I should get back to work, I've been gone for 45 minutes and this thing hasn't shut up" Max said taking his pager out of his pocket.

"Okay, see you in a bit" I said and he just nodded and kissed me. This kiss was getting heated again so we had to pull apart leaving us both pouting. He kissed me once more before going and I sat back down in my chair looking at my paperwork smiling.

"So that's the real reason you want to be a porter for the day, too spend the whole day with Max" Cal said and I just laughed.

"Go get back to work and page us if we're needed" I said to Cal before he kissed Connie goodbye and left, leaving me and Connie to get on with our paperwork.
