Spoilers: Season 3
Summary: What if House called Cameron to pick him up after being arrested?
I.
She hated police stations. They made her feel like a teenager waiting for someone to come pick her up. Of course, this time she was the one doing the picking up...and that came out wrong even in her head.
"Picking up Gregory House."
The receptionist barely glanced up and mumbled something that Cameron took as 'He'll be out soon'.
She was reading Newsweek when he limped into view. Cameron wanted to ask about the absent cane. "Wilson was busy?" She asked instead.
"Didn't get to go on my date last night. I needed to see a little tail."
"Then you should've called a hooker."
"They frown on that down here at the precinct." House made a 'duh' face before turning to fill out the remaining paperwork.
"Ready for work?" He asked.
"It's 6am and we don't have a patient."
"Planning on another hour sleep?"
"More like two."
"I'll buy you breakfast." House walked toward the door. "Then tonight you can take me to the impound to get my bike."
"I am not your chauffer." Cameron said to his back.
"I'll buy you dinner, too." House offered before stepping out into the rising sun. Cameron rolled her eyes and followed him.
