Thanks for all the lovely reviews everyone :) really appreciate them :)

This chapter is definitely not how I had planned it but I hope you enjoy it anyway :)

WARNING: there are a few words considered inappropriate in this.

As soon as Zoe had gotten Phoebe settled, her and Nick said their goodbyes and she headed home for the first time with her daughter. While Nick continued to finish his day at the E.D. He had promised her everything was going to be ok and tonight was the night that he was going to break the news to Yvonne.

That night, Nick arrived home from the hospital and Yvonne didn't even seem to care about him not coming home a few nights ago, she acted like everything was perfect. She was so happy and Nick couldn't help but feel guilty that he would soon have to break this. He did love Yvonne, very much, but she just wasn't Zoe. No matter how hard he tried, there wasn't a minute that went by that he couldn't get Zoe off his mind. To him, she was perfect.

Nick soon put Maisie and Oliver to bed and headed downstairs to Yvonne. She was sat on the end of their sofa. She had poured them both a glass of red wine.

"I figured you'd need it" She smiled as he walked in, picking up his glass off the coffee table and joining Yvonne on the sofa.

"How was your day?" she asked.

"Fine" Nick replied, completely emotionless.

Yvonne could see something was troubling him and he was much quieter than usual. "Everything alright?" she asked him, concerned.

"Yeah fine" he replied back. This time he turned to Yvonne and flashed her a quick smile.

Nicks phone was on the coffee table in front of them when it began to vibrate. He quickly jumped up and grabbed it before sitting back down again – he knew exactly who this would be from.

Yvonne was watching the TV but she couldn't help but notice Nick smiling to whatever he had just received on his phone.

"Anything interesting?" she asked.

"Oh no just a silly joke from Big Mac" Nick replied, still smiling down at his phone.

"Big Mac? I never knew you had his number? He's just a porter isn't he?" Yvonne questioned. She was thinking the worst. She knew she shouldn't but it was hard not to. She knew Nick too well.

"Well yes, but he is a mate of mine, as well as a member of my staff" Nick replied.

Yvonne didn't seem too convinced however. "Let's have a read then?" she asked.

"Oh I don't think you'd get it" Nick began to panic.

"I'm sure I would"

"No, really" Nick said, trying to put her off but Yvonne was persistent and moved to Nicks side of the sofa, attempting to look at his screen. Nick quickly moved it away from her view as soon as she got close.

"Oh come on Nick what's so secretive, why can't I read it" She snatched the phone from his hand. Reading the message that said:

~ Hope she takes it OK, you have to do what's best for you, not anybody else xxx P.S, I'm in bed waiting for you ;) ~

FROM: PAUL.

Yvonne's face dropped as soon as she read it. She turned to face Nick, a look of complete heart ache and pain upon her face.

"Who is she?" she choked. Unable to get her words out as she held back the tears. This was her worst nightmare and it was all coming true.

"She?" Nick asked, he never wanted her to find out this way. Everything was beginning to go horribly wrong.

"Yes she" Yvonne screeched. She couldn't hold it back any longer, she couldn't hide the fact her Fiancée was having an affair. He had just broken her heart.

"Come on Nick, I'm not stupid, I'm a police officer" Nick just continued to look at her; he didn't know what to say to her. He knew that whatever he said wouldn't change anything.

"I think it's pretty obvious 'Paul' is a she, unless you're gay"

"No it's..." Nick began to explain but Yvonne soon interrupted him... "Oh, please tell me it's not her" she asked, as realisation hit her.

"Who?"

"Oh we both bloody know who. Your slut of an ex!" she shouted.

Yvonne's comment was getting to Nick, he hated the thought of Zoe being described like that. "My slut of an ex? I'm guessing you're referring to Zoe then?" He shouted back.

"Who else?! She's the only person I know that would happily sleep with someone else's partner without a care in the world!"

"Oh come on that's not fair"

"Really Nick? Out of anyone, you choose to shag her?! She's probably slept with more men than she has treated patients!" Yvonne's shouting was getting louder and louder now. Nick tried to calm down and reason with her, "Look Yvonne I know this is hard and I didn't want you finding out like..."Yvonne wasn't having any of it though and Nick was soon cut off again by her.

"Oh so how did you want me to find out? Walk in on you giving her one in our bedroom?!"

Yvonne quickly jumped up off the sofa, grabbing her keys off the coffee table and taking Nick's mobile with her. She began to race out of their apartment.

"Where are you going?" Nick shouted. Yvonne didn't answer but Nick knew exactly where she was heading and he needed to warn her as quickly as he could.

Thanks for reading it and hope you liked it :) please review to tell me you're feelings on it! Any suggestions are also welcome!

Also, apologies for making Nick seem like a terrible person breaking Yvonne's heart! And for describing Zoe like that, but they're what I would imagine Yvonne's thoughts would be at that time :P
