The next day zoe came into work with a bad hangover, she headed upto reception where tess, max, louise and noel were, zoe didnt want to see max cause all she had thought of was how awkward today was gonna be but zoe needed paracetamol and she knew that someone would have some.

"god zoe" said Louise

"bad hangover" said noel

"yea vodka" said Zoe

"I am guessing that connie was your drinking partner" said noel

"wait how did you know" said zoe

"cause she came in looking like you this morning and left these" said noel

Noel produced a bottle of water and some paracetamol

"oh thank god" said Zoe

Zoe took the paracetamol and washed them down with some water

"I think you deserve a congratulations" said tess to zoe

"why" said zoe

"cause since you became clinical lead this has been the first time you have come into work hungover" said Tess

"actually that is surprising" said noel

"oi" said Zoe

"zoe do you really think that you should be drinking vodka when your...you know...trying for a baby" said max

Once max said those words tess, noel and louise looked at each other in shock and zoe got her high heel and slamed it down on maxes foot

"aww" shouted max

"zoe are you really" said an excited tess

"no I am not and anyway tess you know my situation and it would be virtually impossible" said Zoe

"why not got a man" said noel

"no actually" said Zoe about to explain "I cant...actually its none of your busness"

"actually I could not imagine you as a mother" said louise

"oh thanks alot" said Zoe sarcastically back

"and max" said zoe "you said that you would keep your mouth shut if I talked to someone and went to see if there is any new drugs"

"yea" said max

"well I talked to connie and I will make an appointment" said Zoe "now you can stop mentioning it"

"I will stop mensioning it as soon as you go to that appointment" said max

Zoe smiled

"well in that case I could tell everyone who you have a secret crush on" said Zoe

Max smiled as soon as she mensioned this

"and why would I be ashamed of that" said max

Zoe smiled and max started to walk away

"and zoe" shouted max "I dont have a crush on her I love her"

Zoe smile turned into a frown and noel, tess and louise noticed this

"I wonder who that is" said louise to tess

"dont worry I know who it is" said tess

Zoe shot round to tess

"what, how?" said zoe

"dixie and robyn told me" said tess "but dont worry I wont tell anyone that the porter has a crush on you"

Tess walked off and noel and louise looked straight at zoe

"dont worry she was joking" said Zoe

Noel and louise believed zoe and got back to work
