Zoe's POV:
I decided to speak to Max and see if he could help with this thing between Connie and Cal, she's going to hate me for meddling but I know she would hate herself if she ends it. 'Hey babe, I need to speak to you meet me out front?xx' I text him and waited for his reply before going outside just in case he was busy. 'Ok coming now x' he text back.
"I'll be about 15 minutes, going to see Max. Cover for me?" I said to Connie knowing that if anyone knew how much I skived with Max they would flip.
"Yeah course I'm gonna go to rhesus, see if they need any help" Connie said back and we walked out together. We walked down past reception and said our goodbye's before she headed to rhesus and I headed out front. As I got there I got the shock of my life. Max came round the corner and pulled me behind it with him.
"Max you gave me a heart attack" I said trying to steady my heart rate whilst laughing.
"Oops" he said smirking back to me.
"Well you're going to have to wait until my heart rate calms down before you can kiss me now" I said turning away from him, laughing in the process. He pulled me back around and kissed me and there was no way I was going to pull away. It didn't last long though because he pulled away.
"You just can't resist me" he said cockily. I didn't answer and just kissed him again. He's right though, I can't resist him. I'm so happy I met him. We pulled away shortly after and I just leant against him whilst he put his arm around my waist.
"I never thought I would feel this way about someone Zo" Max said to me and I couldn't help but smile.
"Neither did I" I said. "Babe, I need your help with something." I said and he looked worried at what I might say.
"Umm sure, what is it?" He asked back.
"Cal and Connie. She really wants their relationship to be official considering her daughter Grace likes Cal and she has fallen for him but he doesn't want anyone to know. I think that he just needs to know that he can pull out at any moment and it won't mean anything but I think he loves her" I said and Max relaxed.
"How about I text Cal get him to come out here and we tell him that he needs to speak to Connie about the relationship and about how they should go public because it would make them both feel better and then leave them to it" he said to me and I smiled.
"This is why I love you" I said and kissed him before he text Cal. 'Cal come out the front of the hospital quickly I need to speak to you, it's important' the text said and then we waited for him to come. Max had gotten really close to Cal lately and they're really good mates now. Cal came out soon later and I was still leaning into Max.
"Cal, you need to speak to Connie about your relationship and about going public" I said trying not to get on the wrong side of him at the same time.
"Why? Me and Connie are fine aren't we? What has she said?" he asked all at once.
"I can't tell you what she's said because it's not fair on her but she doesn't like the fact that you won't go public with her" I said and smiled towards him.
"Ok I will speak to her about it so give us the office for an hour?" he asked and I nodded.
"Yeah of course, I will just tell Connie she needs to there and that Guy is there or something" I said before taking my phone out of Max's pocket, I didn't have any and I didn't want to just leave it in the side of my skirt because it gets uncomfortable. 'Hey Connie, Guy's on his way down. He wants to speak to you in the office' is what it said and I showed the other two before sending the text and we went back inside. We saw he walking to the office and Cal just followed her. We decided to leave them to it and we went to go into rhesus, luckily there wasn't many people in there because the patient had just been transferred so we stood there waiting for the next patient. It was just me, Max, Ethan, Lily, Robyn and Lofty and we all got along quite well so there was no problem with spending time with them.
I don't hate Nick Jordan it was just for the sake of the story and I don't ship Connie and Cal either it was just an idea. Please R&R.
