Chapter 32:
Zoe dragged her suitcase into the ED and Max spotted her and took it off of her wheeling it into her shared office. Zoe unlocked the door and held it open for Max to enter. He positioned the suitcase next to her desk before grinning at her.
"What are you so happy about?" Zoe asked in a suspicious manner.
"Well, I get to spend the weekend with you, without any questions being asked by the staff and my sister." He said.
"Well in that case grin away... Max?"
"Yeah." He replied.
"I swear you knew that I supported Liverpool?" She asked the burning question that had been on her mind ever since the day Max had won the tickets.
"I did indeed." He replied.
"Care to elaborate as to why you didn't just ask me privately, instead of in front of everyone?"
"I thought about it and then I thought you are the only Liverpool supporter that I know, so I made up the lie about it having to be a female so that I could spend a weekend away with you, without any questions. Is that okay?"
"Yeah, course it is. So this was all a scheme to get me to go away with you?" She asked as a cheeky smile spread across her face. Max took a step closer to her and put his hands around her waist.
"Oh Dr. Hanna, I don't need a scheme to get you to go away with me. I can just use my natural charm." He replied as he pressed his lips against Zoe's to which she responded by doing the same. It got slightly more heated but all of a sudden the door opened causing them to split apart quickly and as Max took a step back he tripped over the suitcase falling to the floor. Zoe couldn't contain her laughter but as she looked towards the door she had the shock of her life.
"Hello." Zoe said quietly to which Max quickly got to his feet and walked over to Zoe. Sensing the tension in the room Max put his arm around Zoe's waist without realising.
"Hi, I'm Max." He said putting his hand out for the figure to take and he did shake Max's hand.
"Sorry, you are?" Max asked.
"Nick, Nick Jordan."
