Their trance was shattered when Zoe's pager went off. It was Connie.

"I've gotta go Max"

"Please stay 5 more minutes"

"I've really got to go, look I'll make it up to you later" she said prying herself from Max and began to collect her various items of clothing from the floor.

"Well before you go, can I say something"

She just had chance to ask"What" before Max had once again wrapped his arms around her and engulfed her lips with his. "Max... please ... let me... go" she managed to get out in between kisses.

"Okay okay don't get your knickers in a twist"

"I'm not wearing any" Zoe said as she checked the corridor for people. Giving Max one last peck on the lips before slipping out of the door. She stood outside the door and ran her fingers through her hair to flatten it and then smoothed out her dress.

On the other side of the door Max leant up against the door smiling to himself. 'Everything I've ever wished for has come true and I'm so lucky to love her' he thought to himself. Then he noticed something purple on the floor by the chair, he bent down to pick it up, and realised it was the pants Zoe had left behind, he picked them up and stuffed them in his pocket. They could come in useful later he thought a smirk creeping across his face.

The rest of their shifts went without much excitement. The ED had a steady stream of minor cases and Max only had a few elderly patients that he had to transfer to other wards. Zoe was just in the staff room making herself a cup of coffee as her patient was awaiting the results of a blood test. When her phone buzzed. It was Max 'So Spider-Man you said you'd make it up to me so here's how to start, meet me by the bench at the end of your shift. I have a surprise for you' MJxxx

'Well I'm sure I can mange that, I look forward to it' SMxxx

Little did Zoe know that Max's surprise wasn't quite the one she probably hoped for.

It was 7 pm and was pretty dark outside she walked over to the bench to see that Max was already seated. As she sat down she felt his shivering body next to hers so she pulled him into a hug.

"Oh public affection Dr Hanna"

"Don't sound so surprised, it's dark it's not like we can really be seen"

"I suppose"

"How long have you been sitting out here"

"About 10 minutes" (he'd been there just over an hour but she didn't need to know that)

"So this surprise it better be pretty impressive"

"Well now that would be telling. But first things first " he said whilst pulling out the pants that she had left behind earlier. " I think these belong to you" waving them at her.

"Oi you give them here." Snatching them out of his hand and shoving them into her coat pocket. Then she hit him playfully on the arm.

"Fancy coming back to the boat tonight ?"

"Yeah but won't Dylan mind"

"Oh forget about him, he's to wrapped up in his dog walking duties to even notice that your there."

"Okay then" Max replied. Zoe got up and began to walk towards her car.

"Coming Mary Jane"

Max stood up and skipped to catch up with Zoe. They got in the car and drove to the house boat. When they got there Dylan was no where in sight so Zoe let herself and Max in and lead him straight to her bedroom, shoving him down onto the bed and swiftly closing the door behind them.

Dylan arrived home from waking the dog 10 minutes later and was alarmed when he heard the rhythmic banging of a headboard coming from Zoe's room. 'Back to her old ways' he thought. Little did he know that Zoe had found someone that made her life complete.

Will their relationship be exposed by Dylan or will they tell their friends and colleagues in their own way?

More soon xx
