3 months later…
Zoe's POV:
Me and Max had been together for 3 months now and we were finding it harder and harder each day to act normal around each other. Robyn and Lofty's relationship had come out 2 weeks ago because they were struggling to keep away from each other and now they seem even happier. Connie and Cal still haven't told anyone about their relationship and they've been together for 6 months now. I wonder each day whether me and Max would be even happier if people knew but then I wonder if it would ruin us. I always think of Sam and Tom and how they managed to keep their relationship secret for so long without anyone knowing, apart from Dylan but after they kissed in public they seemed happier as well.
"Morning Zo" I was brought out of my thoughts by Max waking up, he always looks so cute in the mornings.
"Morning babe" I said and kissed him. We laid there talking for a few minutes before we heard Robyn knock on the door.
"Do you two want a cuppa" She asked through the door.
"Yeah thanks sis" he said and her and Lofty walked in with two cups. They put them on the side, smiled at us and then left. We got up after we finished our coffees and got dressed. I was doing my makeup in Max's mirror when he came over and started kissing my neck from behind. He does this every morning and I still haven't got used to it. I turned around towards him smirking before kissing him quickly and carrying on with my make-up, he got the message and went downstairs to wait for me. I was done within 10 minutes which is pretty quick for me but Max still thinks it's a waste of time.
"Ten minutes of your life gone for no reason" he said smirking to me as I got into the living room. I looked at him before sitting on his lap kissing him, I didn't even notice Robyn and Lofty sat opposite to us until we pulled away after hearing Robyn fake cough.
"You two are worst then us" Lofty said to us putting his arms around Robyn.
"We have to make up for not being able to be together in public" I said before kissing him quickly. We had decided that once a month I would be a porter for the day because I wasn't interacting with my staff enough. Today was that day. I only agreed to it to be able to spend more time with Max.
"What's the time anyway?" Robyn asked, shit I never thought about that.
Lofty took his phone out of his pocket before saying "Almost 15 past 8."
"We need to go like now" I said and we made sure we had everything before piling into the car, we only had 15 minutes to get there. We got there with 2 minutes to spare so we rushed in. we got to the entrance and I was stopped in my tracks, Nick Jordan was back.
"Zo, are you alright" Max said to me before following the direction of my eyes. He put his arm around my waist and pushed me into the ED before going back outside. I walked to my office and waited for Max.
Max's POV:
"What are you doing here? I thought you went back to Michigan?" I asked him and he just looked at me.
"I came back for Zoe, I know she loves me. She wouldn't have forged my signature on the consent form otherwise" he said and I was just confused. What consent form? Me and Zoe have been together for 3 months and we are barely apart.
"What consent form?" I asked him and he just smirked.
"Zoe didn't tell you then, she signed a consent form for my surgery to get rid of my brain tumour if she hadn't of signed it I would of died" he said smirking towards me. I knew about that, Robyn had told me.
"I knew about that, my sister told me I thought you meant something recent. But if that's all can you leave now because Zoe doesn't want you here. Me and her are happy" I said but he just punched me in the face.
"I'm the only person Zoe has ever loved and I always will be" he said so I punched him, before any real damage could have been done Cal and Connie came around the corner. Cal pulled me back and looked at me.
"Max you've got blood on you" he said looking right at my face. I put my hand up and felt my cheek and I could feel where it was cut. Luckily for Nick Jordan I didn't cut his face.
"Come on, Max get to mine and Zoe's office now and Jordan, just go back to Michigan no one wants you here" Connie said but he didn't move he just stood there smirking. We left him to it and walked inside.
"Noel, make sure Nick Jordan doesn't come inside and if he doesn't leave from outside the entrance get the police to remove him" Cal said and Noel looked shocked.
"But he used to work here" Noel said, obviously they must of got along.
"Used to being the right phrase, just keep him out of here ok" Connie said bluntly and Noel nodded before we walked away. As soon as we got through the door Zoe looked shocked at the blood dripping down my face.
"Please tell me you tripped" she said but she knew I hadn't, she knew it was down to Jordan.
"Zo, you know what's happened" I said and she came over and hugged me.
"I'm sorry" she said, apologising for him.
"Shh it's not your fault babe" I said back to her.
"Alright love birds, I need to stitch your face so cubicles now" Cal said, I kissed Zoe once again before making my way through to cubicles with Cal. It only took 5 minutes but when we got back to Zoe's office, Nick Jordan was inside. I had a spare key just in case of Zoe or Connie forgetting theirs so I used that so we could get in. I ran towards Zoe whilst Cal ran to Connie. Jordan instantly ran out.
"What just happened" Cal said, obviously not wanting his girlfriend to get hurt. "He wasn't meant to be allowed in here" he added afterwards.
"He wants Zoe, he said if he can't have her then he doesn't want to live anymore" Connie said and I was pretty shocked. I just hugged her. There was a knock on the door within 5 minutes and Cal and Connie pulled away but we didn't, I didn't care who knew right now I just wanted Zoe safe.
"Rhesus case, jumper off the roof, pretty mashed up you three are needed" Lofty said as he came in aiming it at Cal, Connie and Zoe. "Tess said I needed to tell you that it's Nick Jordan" I wish he hadn't of said that because Zoe burst into tears, I pulled her into my chest and we walked over towards the sofa and sat down, she leant against me whilst Cal and Connie ran to rhesus, obviously knowing that Zoe wasn't going to be treating him.
