Thank God Wilson was there.'>


Patient of the week

falls ill, of what we don't know.

Thank God Wilson was there.

Wilson's begging eyes

are more effective than he thinks.

House takes the folder.

Cuddy's breasts meet him

at his office door. Not a

bad start to the day.

Cameron has a

new cause. House is, as usual,

uninterested.

Puppy eyes never

work, unless you are Wilson.

Silly Cameron.

"Make me coffee," he barks,

and she complies, not knowing

she just failed the test.

Differentials are

hard to form when House wears his

red dragon T-shirt.

Wilson walks in, and

blue eyes follow his every

move. Ducklings notice.

Wilson blushes, House grins,

Chase leers, Cameron angsts, and

Foreman wonders why.

Foreman watches them,

trying to figure it out.

Diagnosis? Sex.

Silly wombat, tricks

are for House; kissing his ass

only annoys him.

Sending doctors to

run tests is harder than he'd

thought it would be. Damn.

"The children suspect,"

he whispers, and Wilson rolls

his eyes. "No shit, House."

Stolen time makes each

kiss sweeter, but sadly, they

have work to get to.

Thankless job, watching

after his ducklings. One day,

they will all thank him.

Collecting dysfunction,

he holds their broken shards and

observes secret pain.

Here she comes, tears in

her eyes, begging him to speak

to the damned patient.

He sends her away

to run some more tests. Well, that

should keep her busy.

Escape from Cuddy's

clutches requires quick thinking.

Hide in Exam Room Two.

Foiled again. Someone

must have snitched. Heads will roll, once

he gets out of here.

Patient's symptoms are,

without doubt, the funniest

thing he's seen all week.

Patient is stupid.

Terminal case. Recommend

lobotomy, stat.

When in doubt (or bored),

call Wilson in for consult.

Play Game Boy and wait.

Wilson annoyed, he

will insist on actually

working while at work.

"Fun's over," House says.

Diagnosis? Dumb as dirt.

No treatment for that.

Although, it reminds

House of a case in New York.

Not a total loss.

Limping down the hall,

House yells out orders. He loves

to bully nurses.

Bullying doctors

is even more fun. "It's all your fault."

They take it to heart.

Scurrying like rats,

but there is no improvement.

Something is not right.

Watching the patient's

room, he realizes the

husband is lying.

Foreman is always

his best bet. House only has to

threaten a little.

"Did you cheat on her,"

he asks. Husband not happy.

House likes this part.

Foreman fails. Cammie

blows it. Chase is getting sued.

Send in the cute one.

"I'm busy," he says,

but he's already walking

to the room. Easy touch.

Understanding, and

never judging, full of grace.

Besides, he cheats too.

Success! Husband is

a liar, and all's forgiven.

At least, House forgives.

Her marriage is over,

but at least she's eating now.

Then the bleeding starts.

House is pissed off, again.

Ducklings head for the hills, and

leave Wilson the mess.

Kissing is highly

enjoyable, if only she'd

let them enjoy it.

"You can't do that here!"

Cuddy screeches, and Wilson

bolts. Just like a man.

Fighting with Cuddy

makes no sense when she's jealous.

She will deny it.

His head is pounding.

Cuddy's voice drives him crazy.

Vicodin will help.

His mood improved, House

goes on the prowl. He has ideas,

but now, he needs food.

Wilson shows up, with

a sheepish look. Good for him.

"You're buying me lunch."

Reuben lies in state,

demolished. Chips follow shortly.

Thoughts begin to form.

Inspiration strikes.

House leaves without a word, and

Wilson shakes his head.

"Good thing I love you,"

he thinks, but it's too early

for him to say the words.

The kiddies are back,

with negative test results.

"Why do I pay you?"

"You don't," Chase snarks back.

He'll pay for that, but later.

House likes negatives.

Nothing for it, he'll have

to talk to the sick woman.

He really hates that.

Observe surroundings,

diagnose situations,

remain ever detached.

Wife is kinda cute.

She's also kinda lying.

Extremely annoying.

She tries to hide the

truth from him. He expects her

to be resistant.

"Confession is good

for the soul. Or, in this case,

the body. You'll live."

House, in his office,

curtains drawn, music full-blast.

Epiphany looms.

Cane between fingers,

spins in time to whirling thoughts,

hurricane-force doubt.

His eyes, burning bright,

hold answers inside their depths,

madness lurks within.

His treatment saves her

life, but not her unborn child's.

He can live with that.

Another patient

saved, but it's the hunt he loves.

"I'm bored now," he says.

"I'll see what I can do,"

says Wilson, with a naughty

grin. Duckling trauma.

"Mommy and Daddy

are going home. You kids be

good now. No parties!"

Chase prepares for trial,

Foreman writes his resume,

Cameron wipes tears.

"Stupid ending scene,"

House remarks. "You'll like our part."

Wilson reassures.

Naked bodies slide

between cotton sheets. Kissing,

and then, sex ensues.

my fics, fandom, house
