He stood back and watched, from what he could hear a young girl had been involved in an RTC. They started to walk towards resus and Nick followed. The same familiar 'hospital clean' smell greeted him, he couldn't help but smile... it was like a thousand memories flooding back at once. He walked towards reception, distressed relatives were trying to find their loved ones, walk-in patients were demanding to be seen and as usual Noel was struggling to keep it under control.
He decided to keep himself hidden, he wanted to see Zoe first before anyone spotted him so he walked towards his old office and waited. Not much had changed apart from the array of scatter cushions, the odd pair of expensive heels and the paperwork that seemed to have taken over the whole office.
"Typical Zoe" he thought.
For the first time since he had arrived he began to feel nervous... how would she react? What if things had changed? What if she had met someone else? Was he being naive thinking that everything could be just as it used to be?
He wanted to tell her how he felt, how he had missed her, how he loved her. But then sometimes things are better left unsaid. He got up and started to walk towards the door when it swung open and there she was. Zoe.
"Nick...?!"
She stared at him, unable to hide the shocked look on her face but what hit Nick the most, was the pain in her eyes.
Hope it was okay! I know it was short but i'm just trying to get it started so any ideas would be appreciated! Thanks for the reviews so far, they help me keep it going! :)
