Zoe's POV:

"I used to foster this girl, Sharice, but then she moved to Spain with her grandparents but there's been an accident. They both died in a car crash and Sharice has no one left. She text me earlier asking if she can move back in with me and move back to Holby" I told him and he looked at me shocked.

"Why doesn't she live with her parents?" he questioned.

"They died, I done everything I could to save Abby but it didn't work, he still managed to kill her, her parents died when Abby finally hit back and now they're both gone" I told him, tears filling my eyes.

"Do you want me to come to Spain with you, when you go pick her up?" he asked and I nodded slowly.

"Does she know about us?" Max asked and I shook my head.

"I'll tell her when I ring her tonight" I told him.

"Okay" he said before kissing me. The phone began to ring almost straight after. I looked at the caller ID and realised it was Sharice.

"Sharice" I said smiling whilst putting her on speaker.

"Hey Zoe" She replied back.

"Listen you can stay with me, I can fly over whenever the soonest flight is but there is something you should know" I said to her.

"You and Nick aren't back together again are you because I don't think I could deal with him" she joked down the phone.

"No I don't think we're going to see him for a while" I said looking at Max and smiling.

"What is it then?" she asked me.

"I'm seeing someone, he's called Max and he said he would come over to Spain with me to pick you up and then you can meet him" I told her.

"Is he hot?" she questioned and I just laughed.

"Yeah, he's hot but you're only 13 so you can't have him" I joked back.

"Can't wait to meet him Zoe" she said causing me to smile.

"Zo, I checked the planes to Spain and there is one leaving tomorrow morning, we need to clear it with work though" Max told me and I nodded at him.

"Ring Charlie and ask for the time off, explain what's happened, he loves Sharice" I told Max and he smiled at me before ringing Charlie.

"Does this mean I don't have to go to school tomorrow?" Sharice asked causing me to smirk.

"You need to spend the time packing, will have to get most of your things shipped over but then we can go on a shopping spree as soon as we're back and make Max carry all of the bags" I told her and she laughed.

"Right I need to go, I need to ring Connie and get the time off, I'll ring you when I get off of the plane tomorrow" I said.

"Okay bye Zoe" she said before hanging up.

"Charlie's given me the time off and has gone to speak to Connie for you" Max told me and I just smiled at him.

"Guess we should book the tickets and pack then" I said and he smiled at me before grabbing my laptop and loading up the page. We booked the tickets before beginning to pack.

"What's Sharice like then?" Max asked me and I smiled slightly. I was happy that he was going to put an effort into this.

"She's the sweetest little girl, well she was when she was younger anyway, I haven't seen her for about a year" I told him honestly.

"Do you think she will be alright with us?" he asked me.

"I hope so because I'm not leaving you anytime soon" I told him. He leant in and kissed me smiling into it.

"I love you so much Zo" he said to me as he carried on helping me pack.

"I love you too babes" I said back as we finished packing.

"I'll go back mine and pack then come back after, I need to tell Robyn what's happening anyway" he told me and I nodded.

"I'll get a Chinese on the way back Zo" he said before kissing me. I walked downstairs with him.

"Take the car, you won't take as long that way" I told him giving him my keys.

"You must trust me, normally you don't let me touch your car but these last two days I've drove it twice now" Max joked. I kissed him once again before closing the door behind him. I dropped down onto the sofa, taking my phone out and ringing Linda.

"Zoe" she shrieked down the phone.

"Alright Linds" I laughed. We hadn't spoken for a few weeks.

"How's lover boy" she joked Linda didn't know who it was yet, just that it was someone from the hospital.

"His name's Max you know" I told her laughing again.

"What, Robyn's step brother?" she asked me.

"Yeah but that's not why I rang you" I told her.

"Okay but I do want details on how you and Max happened" she laughed.

"Whatever. Any chance that you can come up this week?" I asked her.

"Yeah, got two weeks off, was going to surprise you" she said and I smirked.

"Well Sharice is moving back in, I know you didn't know her that well and have only seen her twice but I wanted her to see familiar faces. She only knows you me, Charlie, Tess, Jeff and Dixie" I told her.

"That girl needs a shopping trip as soon as she gets here" Linda said and I laughed.

"Me and Max are getting the plane there at about 5 tomorrow morning then the plane back at about midday. Can go shopping the day after?" I questioned and I heard her shriek again.

"This is going to be like the best two weeks ever" Linda said causing me to laugh. We stayed on the phone for about half an hour longer before Max came back.

"Zo I'm back" he shouted as he came through the door.

"Let me speak to him" Linda said and I laughed.

"Babe, come here a minute, Linda wants to speak to you" I said. He walked in, kissed me and then put the phone on speaker.

"Linda" Max said.

"Max, you better treat Zoe right over wise you won't be able to ever make babies understand" Linda said seriously.

"Zo's the most important person in my life, I would never do anything to hurt her" Max said causing me to smile.

"That's just what I wanted to hear" Linda said causing us both to smirk.

"Linds we need to go, need to sleep before the flight" I told her.

"Yeah alright, speak to you when I get there" she said before hanging up.

"When's Linda coming up" Max asked.

"As soon as we're back, she's got two weeks off of work so she's going to stay with us for a bit, gonna take Sharice shopping with me" I told him and he smiled at me.

"Come on lets go bed, I'm shattered" Max said before we both walked upstairs and went to bed, discarding the Chinese food he had left downstairs.


So I know I said I would update at 40 reviews but I fell asleep before it got there last night which is why I'm doing it now.

55 Reviews before next update. I'm only going to be updating when I get a certain amount of reviews now because I feel like no one reads.

Happy Casualty day guys. Zoe's back tonight so hopefully we get some Zax.
