Chase's POV and House's POV in this. It is obvious who is talking when, and who is thinking what.
The Edge
It was just a mistake and he knew it. He left me hanging and he could have prepared me all along. I trusted House as oddly as it may seem and he left me to be blindsided. He gave me some crap about it was better that I went down in a blazing glory. Well I went down all right. My own dad dead and House, and him did not have the guts to tell me. That day I found out I left work and went out drinking. I knew I shouldn't my mother was an alcoholic but I wanted to get away from the pain. It didn't work. As I was telling Stacy all the lies I kept feeling despair. I was and doctor and I thought of a way to make it all go away.
I left notes to everyone but House. He told me to go down in a blaze of glory well I am doing that. After the verdict was read and Forman was taking over I knew what I was doing was right, or so it seemed.
I got home and took out the pills. Endless sleep seemed like the only way. So I downed them. The funny thing was I woke up. I woke up at the Hospital. House was there by my bedside.
The verdict was read. Forman was in charge. I was pissed. Chase had left and the others were in the locker room when they got these notes. They were from Chase saying goodbye. They all thought it was before the verdict but I felt it could relate to now. I left quickly and went to Chases. I pulled out my key to his place and unlocked the door. I saw him lying down. I saw an empty bottle of sleeping pills next to him. I checked his vitals and knew what I had to do. I called 911 and an ambulance was on the way. We rushed him back to the hospital. I was nervous the whole way because I was wondering why Chase chose to do this. I may have been upset with him but I did not think I forced him over the edge.
We got to the hospital and he had his stomach pumped. He was going to live. Now I just had to solve the puzzle of why he did it. I watched later as his eyes slowly opened. Finally I might get my answer.
"Why did you do it?"
"House my dad is dead, alcohol doesn't work, I feel alone. I trusted you and you left me to be blindsided. I did not know what to do anymore. This seemed like the only way out."
"You idiot! Don't you realize that you are important? People would miss you if you were gone. I would miss my Briton. Where would I find another blond one? Plus too many eight-year-olds would miss out on their kisses from you. All kidding aside you are an idiot. I will only say this once and will deny it after wards but I would miss you, so I hope you never do something like that again."
With that House left Chase to think about what he said. Chase thought about it too. Maybe living is better than death. Forman can't be that bad of a boss can he? I will give this a shot and see where life takes me.
Chase lives on to these next seasons.
