Lofty's POV:
"Come on will you lot hurry up, we're going to be late" Zoe shouted up the stairs. I looked at the clock next to my bed and realised if we didn't leave now then we definitely would be late. I shoved my shoes on and walked down stairs to see Zoe, Robyn and Max stood there looking at me, god did they looked pissed.
"What took you so long" Max said as Zoe opened the door. I kissed Robyn quickly before getting into the back of Zoe's car. Max and Zoe were in the front and me and Robyn in the back.
"So what do we tell people if they ask why we all came in together?" I asked hoping someone would have an excuse.
"We tell them that Robyn asked if I could give you three a lift when we're working the same shifts so that it would save on time and then you lot aren't always late" Zoe said smirking. "Alright we're here and stick to the story." We all got out of the car and walked in towards the ED. Once we were inside we all headed to the staff room to get changed. I was hoping it would just be us four in there so I could kiss Robyn again but it wasn't, Lily, Rita, Fletch, Ethan and Cal were all in there too. Zoe said bye to us all before heading to her office.
Zoe's POV:
I got to my office after saying good bye to the others and as soon as I got in there I saw Connie sat there already working, I was shocked that she was actually doing the paper work.
"Thanks for doing that Connie" I said, me and Connie didn't start off well but now we're really good friends.
"It's alright" she said looking up and smiling at me. I sat down in my chair before she started speaking again. "So who is he?" she asked smirking at me.
"What do you mean?" I asked trying my hardest to cover it up but every time I think about Max I can't help but smile.
"You know what I mean Zo, you haven't stopped smiling since I mentioned it so you must like him" She said still smiling and I knew I wasn't going to get away from it that easily. Luckily for me Lofty came to the door right at that moment.
"You're both needed in rhesus, ETA 3 minutes" He said. Yes thank you for that Lofty, you just saved my life.
"Yep we're coming now" I said following him out the door, smiling at Connie. I waited till me and Lofty were out of ear shot from Connie before saying, "You saved my life then, she was just trying to find out who my mystery man was" I was laughing whilst saying it.
"Glad to be of service, I have to stay in his good books considering I'm seeing his sister" he said smirking back at me. We got to rhesus and soon Connie, Robyn and Cal all joined us.
"Is it Lofty?" Connie asked to which I just laughed at before saying no getting everyone's attention but before anyone could say anything else Dixie and Jeff came through the door.
We had just finished treating the patient and Max had come in to take him to CT. We both smiled at each other before Connie started to speak to me again.
"So are you going to tell me who you're seeing because I can already tell that you've fallen for them big time" Connie said and I just went red. Max, Robyn and Lofty all looked at me whilst Cal said,
"Aw Zoe I know you love me but" was all he could say before I playfully hit him in the chest whilst telling him to shut up. Max took the patient to CT and the whole time they were there Cal and Connie were quizzing me on Max but obviously not knowing it was Max. 'How has Robyn and Lofty kept their relationships secret for so long, me and Max are already struggling' was the only thought in my mind whist I ignored Cal and Connie. Cal came over to me as Max came in joking around.
"So Zo, would you ever cheat on your perfect boyfriend?" he said smirking, Max was now listening.
"No one's perfect Cal, but no I wouldn't. He means too much to me to risk it" I said and Max smiled towards me. Cal kissed me quickly as a joke and I could tell Max was jealous.
"Oops, I guess you've cheated on him now" Cal and Connie both started to laugh and so did I slightly.
"Kissing your boss now Cal, I'm sure there's only one person I would let do that" I said but regretted it straight away.
"He works in the department" Connie and Cal screeched at the same time whilst Robyn put her head on Lofty's chest both of them laughing before realising where they were and lifted her head up again.
"How about we just treat this patient" I said and they all laughed before Max left and the others went back to treating their patient. It wasn't long before he was moved to cubicles and I walked back to my office. Connie and Cal came in soon after and started quizzing me again. I knew I couldn't ask Connie to leave her own office but Cal was a different story.
"Haven't you two got work to do?" I stated rather than asked.
"Yes, Cal's giving me a hand with this paper work. I'm sure Ash, Ethan and Lily can cope" Connie said before her and Cal laughed again. The next 2 hours were spent with those two going on about trying to work out who in the department I was seeing but failing because I just denied everyone they said. I couldn't cope with it much longer and went out for a fag and texted Max at the same time and within a minute he had come out and joined me.
