In the few weeks Zoe had been out of hospital, Max had moved most of his things into her house. He knew she needed looking after and he wanted to be the one to be there for her. He wasn't risking Nick Jordan winning her back, he'd heard the stories..they always ended up back together, and he'd seen how he cared when she was in hospital, he wasn't willing to risk losing this woman to anyone, not even Nick Jordan.
They'd decided to go for a walk, a nice stroll around town. Walking, hand in hand, the walked for around two hours before Zoe started to get tired and Max decided to take her for something to eat, and said he'd call a taxi for them after. They walked into a cafe and sat in the back corner, and they both looked through the menu's.
"I'm not really that hungry, I'll just have a coffee" Zoe nodded.
At this, Max sighed "you need to eat..I'll get a sandwich, we can share it?"
She sighed quietly and nodded "fine."
While they waited for their sandwich to arrive, Max spoke, "I want to take you out, properly..when you're better, of course. Somewhere nice, the new restaurant in town?"
Zoe smiled and nodded "yeah...sure.."
"Shall we just go home?" he studied her face, looking for some sort of response.
She just shrugged "whatever, whatever you want."
They did go home...Zoe went to her house, and Max to his...he thought to get more things but she didn't really want him to come back. She didn't like feeling vulnerable, or people looking after her, never had, probably never will. She did like him being so caring and comforting, it just wasn't in her nature to be looked after, not properly.
