Chapter 1

Authour's note: well i am so exicted cos I've been reading stories on here for ages and now one of mine is here too. I know it's not as good as some fics I red but I gave it a shot. Please enjoy and its Ham and Oc/OC so if you get squicky when you think of when Cam and House kissed (my fav scene!) then I would suggest not reading. It might be a little out of character but I tried not to be. This is going to be 5 chapters and its planned but if you hav any ideas let me know. Oh and flames are okay cos I am used to people being mean to me. Sniff

Disclaima: Obviously I don't own House but I own the DVDS so do you reckon Mr. Shore could lend the characters to me for awhile?

Why on earth did it have to be so damn difficult? Cameron wondered as she checked House's mail. The guys were out of the room doing some test stuff so she took a second to recollect herself; she was annoyed at House a lot cos he was pestering her more. Why couldn't he notice her sometime? She had tried dressing prettier and wearing makeup and that but he seemed to pay more attension to his best buddy James than her. She was almost on the brink of quitting but couldn't cos she wouldn't be abel to stand being apart from House. He was like an addiction.

After a few weeks of torment something happened that kept her mind of her crush for a bit. Cameron's niece turned up on the doorstep one morning. Knock knock. Cam dragged herself out of the comfy bed and staggered to the door trying not to fall down. A chirpy voice greeted her. "Hi Auntie Ally. How you doing? Did I wake you up? I hope not"

Cameron yawned and testiculated for her niece to come inside. She did so lugging a massive big suitcase behind her. Cameron took a itsy peek outside and saw the boot open. Then she saw a guy standing there pulling even more stuff out for here niece who had the name now of Kaylah. She gave her aunty a massive hug then walked inside, smiling happily. Cameron was pretty confused. What the hell was Kaylah doing at her house at this stupid time in the morning especialy with all the bags and that. She couldn't actually want to stay her. "So Auntie Ally. Me and my boyfriend are on holidays and we figured we might come visit for a couple of weeks to see whats its like down here.

"But..."

Her boyfriend came up to the door, looking kind of shy and stuff but that mighta been cos he had some big bags infront of his face and he couldn't see real well. His brushed his scruffy hair out of his face and Cameron almost jumped when she saw him. He had brilliant turquiose bluey eyes and he sorta reminded her of House. But he couldnt be houses sun cos House never told her he had a son. Oh well. She politely invited them inside and they sat down to have a cup of tee together. "So you going to introduce me to your friend."

"Oopsie daisy" said Kaylah. "This is my boyfriend Jakob Ally. Isn't he cute?'

Cameron smiled. She thought he sorta looked like House who she loved a fair bit now. She smiled and shaked Jakob's hand. It was real strong and firm. He swept his hair out of his eyes and grinned cheeky. She was happy for Kaylah. "So can we stay"

"Sure thing. Ill just get some stuff out for youse. Do you want some coffee or something?"

He screwed up his face: "yukky" ill just have some water please!"

Cameron went to go get drinks and then sat down to talk to them. Jakob sat opposite her witch was nice. He asked some questions so that she could get to now him good since he was sorta like part of the family and that.

"so, where's you grow up?"

"just south of here"

"how old are you?"

"I turned 22 last week"

"Oh thats cool. Did you have a party"

"nuh but your beautiful niece" he rubbed her back gently " got me a real nice new car.

"Wow." cameron said funnily "you must be richer than me!"

Kaylah grinned and Jakob told he a bit about how he was studying medicine and that at college. He was real good at it and was usually first in the class. Just like House Cameron thought to herself. But that couldnt be. Then she asked him about his family.

His face became just like a strormy grey cloud in New York on a real miserable gloomy day. She regret asking that question cos he seemed a bit upset. She reached over and put and arm on him. He sniffled a bit.

"It's okay. She said. "it's alright if you don't want to listen."

"Well its just hard telling people." he turned to Kaylah. "Not everything I say you've heard so just prepare yourself probably."

She smiled gently. "Well, my mum was still kinda young when she had me but apparently my Dad was about 25, 26. Basically he got scared and did a runner just after I was born. Mum died when i was 2 but she left me a special box for me to open at 18 when i'd be mature enough to handle thise news. I kinda am frustrated at my father for abandoning me but I don't really now everything that happend so their might have bean a valid reason." His shoulders shook silently and a single tear rolled down his face, a single drop of wishing of what could have bean. He sat up straight again.

"Are you okay now" she said.

"Sometimes it gets hard but im getting through" he said.

"Have you ever had times were you just want to give up?" she said

He looked shammed. "unfortuntly yeh. I felt bad about it now though. One time" he sighed "i remember getting my razor and actually sitting on my bathroom floor screaming out to god to let me dye and I cut myself" he showed the girls his wrist and they started crying a lot. He rested his head on Kayla's lap and went to sleep with both women stroking his hair gently trying to comfort him.
