Here's chapter 9! Thanks for all the reviews so far :)

The writing/dialogue in bold is a flashback.


Zoe was sat alone in the cold hospital toilets. So much had happened in the past few weeks; Matt proposing, Nick returning, so many emotions to deal with. She was unsure about whether to accept Matt's proposal at first, he was nice, very nice but she had always had this worry that she wouldn't be able to commit to him. Deep down she only ever wanted to be Mrs Jordan, but that was a long time ago. She couldn't believe it had been 2 years since Nick left, the days go a lot quicker when you're a busy clinical lead. She had never really planned what she had wanted in life, maybe she would get married, maybe she would have children, maybe she would live in the countryside and have a peaceful life after all of the chaos of working in the ED... but did she really want all of that? It was just a fairytale wasn't it?

"Ahh Dr. Hanna, loverboy is in your office, he wants to see you" Noel shouted across to Zoe, she wished he wouldn't keep broadcasting her personal life across the ED.

She walked into her office to find Matt standing by her desk. There were candles lit and he had a glass of wine ready for her.

"What's all this about?"

Before she could say anything else he knelt down on one knee.

"Zoe Hanna, will you do the honour of becoming my wife?"

Zoe froze on the spot, she was speechless. They had only been going out a few months, in her books it was still early days.

"Well..?" She looked at him, starting to panic.

"Ye...yes" She couldn't face saying no especially as she had noticed that half of the ED where watching from the doorway.

There was an applause as everyone started congratulating them, she put on a fake smile.

'You never know, it could work' she thought.

She looked down at the pregnancy test she had been holding for the last couple of minutes.

Positive.


Who's the father? Nick or Matt?!
