*takes deep breath*

You had me holding my breath, again, the whole time I was reading.

That was great :)

I love that House was a phantom limb to Wilson, that was a great way to put it.

It's all fantastic and there really isn't any line that is not perfect but I love this: ""House, you trusted me once. And I... I betrayed that trust. Hell--I abused it, twisted it, I... I used it like a weapon, and... I almost killed you with it.""

I was nodding along the whole time agreeing with him...yes Wilson... you did.

And this: ""I have no right to ask you to give your trust back to me now; I know that. But I'm asking anyway. I'm asking you to forgive the choices I made, to forgive me. I need you to let me help you.""

Specifically, "I need you to let me help you."

Wilson, Wilson, Wilson. *sigh* Please don't ever change.

And this:

"You're selfish and egotistical, and sometimes you're even dangerous, but you're also--why are you smiling?"

"Weirdest 'apology' I ever got," House says faintly.

... Just made me SMILE.

:) Thanks for
