Cuddy quickly brushed a little blush on her cheeks and studied her reflection in the mirror critically. She…didn’t look half bad if she did say so herself. Of course, she didn’t know what House would say but she was doing the best she could with what she had to work with. She thought he'd like the result. Truth was, after the weeks of shapeless ( Read more... )

House looked at himself in the mirror by the front door as he straightened his tie. With a sigh, he gripped the edges of his jacket and gave it a light tug, straightening that as well while scrutinising his appearance. He wasn't sure if maybe the tie was too much and as he reached up to fiddle yet again with the knot at the base of his neck, he wondered if he should forgo the tie altogether.

He was otherwise ready to go. He'd dressed in smart-casual dark grey slacks, a light blue shirt and a dark grey jacket to match. As much as he wasn't one for dressing up, he was really looking forward to the date. He'd even buffed his shoes for the occasion. He glanced down at his shoes, then back up at his tie and chewed on his lower lip uncertainly. Was he overdoing it ( ... )

Cuddy turned at the sound of House's voice. Her smiled widened when she saw him. She knew he wasn't much for dressing up. He was much more comfortable in jeans and t-shirts. He only pulled out the good clothes for her benefit. It was worth it--he looked good. She didn't even care that he'd left out a tie. He looked fine without it and she knew he'd only be tugging at it all night long if he'd worn one ( ... )

Cuddy telling him he looked nice in front of the babysitter had him feeling a little self-conscious and he glanced at the babysitter before giving Cuddy an awkward quirk of a smile. Thankfully, the attention was immediately turned back to Emma and he more than gladly took her. If he wasn't mistaken, however, Cuddy didn't seem too willing to hand Emma over. He'd expected that, given that she'd mentioned in the past the difficulty she felt at parting herself from the baby. He didn't want that happening tonight, though ( ... )

In the bedroom, Cuddy took a moment to check herself in the mirror again. She tugged at a few stray curls, trying to get them to behave. Then she adjusted her necklace. And then.... She really didn't have time to procrastinate. She'd made reservations at the same Italian restaurant where they'd gone for their first 'real' date. It was a popular place and if they were late, they just might lose their table ( ... )
