"Zoe" said nick softly
Charlie was going to tell everyone to get back to work but he knew that everyone desperately wanted to see what was going on and he secretly wanted to know what was happening himself, what did zoe flinch when nick touched her? Why is nick even here?
Zoe took a couple of steps back from nick, but nick stepped towards her wondering why she had flinched, nick went to touch zoe again when she flinched once again, everybody noticed this and zoe was starting to get annoyed, nick noticed that when zoe stepped back she placed her hand on her side which was slightly swollen. And that's when Connie came out of her and Zoe's office wondering why it was so quiet.
"What is going on" she said
Connie walked out into the middle of reception and that where she saw nick Jordan, at first she didn't care that he was there as she was more concerned about zoe and that's when she saw zoe behind him looking frightened and as if she was going to cry.
"Connie long time no see" said nick looking away from Zoe
The anger inside Connie built up to breaking point and Connie walked over to nick and slapped him straight across the face, the whole ED gasped as she done this and nick looked back up at her with his hand on his face, he could see the hatred in her eyes.
"What the hell was that for" said nick
"That is what someone should have done a long time ago" said Connie "and that's for being a self-centred ignorant pompous prat"
"Ooooohhhhhhh" said all of the ED treating this like a drama production
Nick took his hand off his face and took a step to the side so that Connie and Zoe were looking straight at each other, Connie quickly walked over to Zoe and stood beside her
"It's ok" whispered Connie to Zoe
Connie sensed that Zoe was about to cry and also noticed that Zoe was holding her side in pain
"Are you ok" whispered Connie to Zoe
"Yea fine" said Zoe faking a smile
Connie wasn't taking any of this and stood in front of zoe so that nobody could see what she was doing, Connie lifted the edge of zoe's top up s that she could just about see zoe's stomach which was covered in bruises and needle marks, Connie let zoe's top go, stood back and looked at her
"It's the treatment isn't it" said Connie no longer whispering
"Yes" said Zoe no longer caring that the whole ED was listening "they said injections would be the most effective"
Connie turned and looked at nick
"Look what you have done to her" shouted Connie at nick
Zoe sighed and lent against the wall
"Connie really it's not his fault" said Zoe in almost a whisper but loud enough to hear "it's mine"
"Zoe stop blaming yourself none of this is your fault" said Connie
Connie turned her attention back to nick who was confused
"This woman saved your life and what did you do" said Connie "you dumped her cause you found out that she was infertile"
The whole ED looked at Zoe in shock and wondered how she had kept this a secret, Zoe sighed and slowly slide down the wall, Tess noticed this and quickly ran over to her making sure that she was ok
"No I dumped her because she wasn't caring my child" said nick
"Same thing" said Connie back, her and nick now having a heated debate
"It's not the…" said nick "wait did you just say that Zoe is infertile"
