It was moving day for Zoe. She was in a way sad to leave the boat and Dylan behind but this was the first step in the right direction for her. Nothing could go wrong. Everything was as it should be and Max had even managed to get the morning off to help her. That was commitment to a tee.
Max got to the house boat just after 9 o'clock and Zoe was already outside stacking boxes of her stuff up. The things from her old house before she went away had been put into storage so she'd had it brought to the boat that same morning.
"Morning Zo."
"Morning. Ah your just what the doctor ordered and you strong for man. Come here and help me load all these boxes on that lorry."
"Yes mam." He said winking at Zoe.
Once all the boxes had be safely and successfully loaded onto the lorry Max and Zoe went back into the boat to get the few things that Zoe didn't trust to go on the lorry. So she was going to take them in the car with her instead. Max put the two boxes into Zoe's car and then got in the passenger side. Zoe locked the boat and got into the drivers side, started the engine and drove in front of the lorry so that it didn't get lost as the driver wasn't familiar with the streets of Holby.
"You know it will be strange not having Dylan around and I'll miss him cooking dinner for me. I'll have to do it myself now."
"Well when I happen to have the pleasure of staying round I don't mind cooking for you princess."
"Well that's most kind."
"Oh look we're here." Zoe said making a left turn.
"I'm so excited yet nervous for some reason."
"Well this is a big step for me since I left."
"Yeah well this time we get to do everything together."
"I look forward to it."
After all the boxes were unloaded and placed in the correct rooms according to the labels Zoe had put on the boxes to avoid any confusion. She opened a bottle of red wine and got two glasses out of one of the boxes in the kitchen and placed them on the coffee table in the living room. Max had made himself quite at home on the sofa with a space next to him reserved for Zoe.
She first went out into the hall to get her bag and inside was a DVD she had brought earlier that week to watch with Max on the first night in the new house.
She walked back into the room and went over to the TV, switching it on and placing the disc into the side of the TV.
"What's that."
"Just a film I brought for us to watch."
"Oh what's it called."
"If I stay. I was on the phone to Linda who's an old friend the other day and she recommended it to me. So I thought why not."
"Lovely well hurry up, your seat awaits. And the wine is calling your name."
"Are you trying to get me drunk Mr walker."
"Now whatever gave you that idea."
"Not sure." Zoe said smiling as Max looked up and kissed her.
Perfect things don't last forever. Will Max and Zoe's relationship be able to survive in the public eye? Or will it fall apart?
Please review. There'll be more soon xx
