Here's chapter 4! Thought it might be nice to do a chapter from Zoe's point of view.

Zoe was outside, smoking her 2nd cigarette in 5 minutes. Tess walked outside and saw she was looking upset.

"Zoe? Are you alright?" she said concerned.

"Yeah, I'm fine..."

"Is it about Nick being back?"

"Yeah... I don't know what to think Tess, I thought I was finally over him and now he's saying he loves me..."

"Oh Zoe.. it's one of those times where you just have to be selfish and do what's right for you, you love him don't you?"

"Of course I do but if I get back with him then I run the risk of losing him again and I just don't think I can go through that again"

Tess looked at her sympathetically but Zoe was the only person who could make the decision.

"I better go back inside, if you need to talk you know where I am"

"Thanks Tess, I appreciate it"

She remained outside, a million and one thoughts circling inside her head. She couldn't be selfish though, not anymore, she was clinical lead, she had responsibilities and people who relied on her. She couldn't just let Nick walk back into her life, sweep her off her feet and forget about everything else.

"Dixie, what have we got?"

"This is Hannah Young, she's been involved in a hit and run. She's got a GCS of 10, pulse is 181 and her BP is 90 over 64"

"Okay, straight through to resus please" Zoe lead them into resus. She hadn't seen Nick since she had walked out of the office and she was struggling to focus on anything else.

"Dr. Hanna..?"

"Yeah, sorry.. let's get a full trauma series done and get her in for a CT asap"

She was taken through for a CT straight away to assess the damage. At that moment Zoe's phone began to ring.

"Hello?"

"Dr. Hanna, it's Mr Hanssen, could you please come to my office if you have a moment."

"Um, yeah I'll be up in 5 minutes."

She knew she would be back before her patient returned from the CT and made her way to Hanssen's office, slightly worried about what he wanted, her mind retracing anything that she could have done wrong. She reached his office door and knocked.

"Come in."

"Hi, you wanted to see me?"

"Yes. It's nothing serious, just to let you know that Mr Jordan will be returning to work. He will be joint clinical lead so you will also stay in your current position."

"Oh right..." just then her bleep went off and she had to rush back to the ED.

She couldn't believe Nick had just gone behind her back and asked for his old job back without even telling her. She rushed back into resus and there he was, treating her patient, as if nothing had ever changed.

Hope it was okay! Thanks to Minxheart for suggesting the idea of Zoe having a heart to heart with another colleague :) Please review!
