Hey! So, I wont be updating for a while as I am going away for a while and I'm not sure how long it will be until I can update. Anyway thanks for all the reviews!

This isn't a very long chapter and nothing really happens. In the next few chapters something will actually happen. Let me know your thoughts.

Here you are chapter 11...


Chapter 11

Zoe.

Throughout the day I had people coming up to me asking if it was true that Ash and I were together, I told them that we were and the rest was none of their business.

At lunch we grabbed sandwiches and sat in my office together eating them and kissing. We were interrupted by Charlie wanting my opinion on a patient, as I walked around the ED people stopped their conversations and stared at me. I guessed they were all gossiping about Ash and I

I caught Sam and Tom kissing in the locker room, they stopped as soon as I entered but I told them to carry on or I was a hypocrite so they did. Fletch couldn't stop laughing whenever he saw me and I came close to hitting him a few times but he was quick to run before it was clear I was angry. I could tell that the young nurses were talking about me, as they were quick to stop talking as I neared them. I snapped at a lot of people that day and told them that sick people needed their help and if they had time for talking they weren't working hard enough.

The gossip wasn't too bad to be honest and they ED's reaction to Ash and I's relationship was as if they had expected it to happen. I was talking to Tess and she said that it was about time we had got together, it made me wonder if it wasn't only obvious to Linda that we had chemistry or it was obvious to everyone else but no one had told us.

As promised Tess and Sam came and found me during their break and quizzed me on my relationship. It felt good to talk about it so I locked my office door and turned off all our pagers. As I told the story about how Ash and I got together at Linda's party we laughed and giggled like teenagers gossiping over boys they fancied. Sam shared the story of how she and Tom had got together over a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors, even though it had taken them ages after that to properly become a couple but that had been the moment they had started to see each other as more than friends. Tess joined in with stories of bad dates and embarrassing moments she had experienced in the past. We all laughed and had fun in the privacy of the office; it was good to spend time with my close colleagues, behaving like we were teenagers again. I had not had an experience like this in a long time. It felt good to share experiences and I felt closer to Sam than I had before; Tess and I were old friends and she would be one of the first people I would go to if I had a problem, but Sam I hadn't really known that well until today. Yeah, sure, we had chatted and were acquaintances but not really anything more, we were close to being friends before the ED discovered her and Dylan were married but after that we grew apart more and more

Before we had realized, we had spent an hour and a half locked in the office behaving like teenagers. It was way past the end of Tess' break and Sam's shift had finished 45 minutes ago. We hurried out of the office and I said goodbye to Sam who went over to Tom who looked annoyed that he had been waiting for her for nearly an hour. Tess rushed off to cubicles and I went back to rhesus where Ash was, I smiled when I saw him but tried to ignore the urge to go over to him and talk but after a few minutes of looking at a patients notes trying to figure out the problem with a patient I found I was no longer able to resist. I walked over to him swaying my hips slightly watching him watch me. I walked out of the door next to him and he followed me. I could feel his gaze on me as I led him to a deserted corridor.

I turned and pulled him into an embrace.

"Where have you been? I've been looking for you everywhere." He whispered into my ear as I kissed him on the lips slightly.

"Just having a girly chat, that's all." I replied.

"Oh! About what?" he asked kissing me back.

"You." I replied wrapping my arms around his neck pulling him down to my level and kissing him again.

"Really," he answered after breaking away.

"Yes." I said and I placed a small kiss on his lips. "You're very interesting you know." I continued.

"Oh I know." He said placing his hands on the back of my head and passionately kissing me.

As we broke away Fletch wandered down the corridor and when he saw us shouted, "You get her Ash!"

I twisted round to see him, fuming.

"I'm going. I'm going!" he said running out of the corridor, before he got out he yelled, "Nice work guys!".

I just smiled at Ash and he placed a kiss on my lips.

"Just ignore him yeah." He said stroking my arm.

"Yeah. I'll try." I replied returning the kiss and walking back into the busy ED getting back to work after spending most of the day stuck in my office and kissing the man I was in love with.


Hopefully I will update soon but I'm making no promises. Read and Review.
