ATTACHED

Allison Cameron knew that enough was enough she could no longer wall around P.P.H. wanting something to happen between her and Dr. Greg House she had to go, She must go, she had no choice in the matter her heart couldn't take seeing him everyday. He was the kind of person who could only be taken in small doses, with his sarcastic remarks and annoying tendencies. She had already confessed her love to him and he had turn her down with out even the littlest thought. She thought she could make him love again, but she failed. The only person he would look at with those big blues eyes and have love behind them would be Stacy Warner, the woman Cameron envied. She was the only woman who carried House's heart and Cameron hated.

It was another usual day a P.P.H., Dr. Cameron was reviewing files for the teams upcoming patient. The symptoms were all over the place. Fainting, Lose of appetite, fatigue, trouble breathing, and others that could be associated with any diagnosis. The Patient was an eight year old female that had been sick for a while and had just know sought help. Not that she wasn't telling anyone that she wasn't feeling well, it was just that her parents were hardly around and attended school, including after school care which she was there until night time when her parents were working. She had been sick for at least a month just laying around when she was at recess until her teacher wouldn't except that she was sick anymore thinking that the little girl was faking, making her play with the other kids, the little girl vomited and fainted on the school lawn. Now she was at P.P.H. waiting and hoping for the best care that she could get.

"Dr. Cameron?" came a voice from the door way, looking up Allison saw that House was standing there in his usual way leaning heavily on his cane. "Last time I check that was my desk and those files are mine, don't want your girlie cooties on them! Might catch something!"

" I was just looking at the new patients files." she replied, giving it a little sarcasm to imitate House. "Wanted to make sure that I knew as much as I could to start brainstorming about a possible diagnosis." she said in a more Cameron like tone. She hated being one on one with him like this, his eyes burning her skin. Making her uncomfortable, but very pleased that she was the one he was looking at with those big blues.

"Well she's here" slightly jumping at the sound of his voice, she hadn't known how long the silence was between the two of them, but she knew his eyes were on her the whole time, and she loved that. "Don't get attached... you tend to become...attached." she thought there would be more to come, but House just turned around and left the room. She wondered what he might have said, but knew it would have been more of House's sarcasm. Sat there for a while just fingering around houses desk, touching what he has touched just for a hint of a connection. Browsing his ipod for songs the both liked anything to show that they were slightly compatible.

The teams session went as usual, more blurting of possible diagnosis',but nothing was correct. House ruled cancer out because it was the first thing that Foreman blurted out, it seems reasonable that she would have, if it wasn't for the fact that foreman always says cancer. So they called it a day, without finding the problem. Cameron had decided to go by the little girls room and see how she was, she hadn't even met her yet and found this the perfect time since she was done for the night and about to leave the hospital. She walked into the room hoping she wasn't sleep and she had been right, the little girl lay there watching television. She didn't notice Cameron at first and was startled when she spoke.

"Hi" Cameron spoke, noticing she had startled the girl. "Oh, I'm sorry I scared you" she apologized walking to the chair and sitting next to the bed the girl was laying in and taking her hand into hers.

"No its okay, I was hoping I'd have someone to talk to" the little girl replied, acknowledging Cameron's hand around hers and returning the grip. "I'm Alain... what's your name?" she asked with sweet brown eyes that no one could resist.

"I'm Dr. Cameron, one of your doctors her at the hospital, I just wanted to meet you." Cameron replied, knowing she was already getting attached just like House had warned her not to. "We are doing our best to find out what's causing you to be so sick" Cameron smiled and noticed a stray strand of hair fall into Alain's face and moved it back for her with her free hand.

"Will it take long?" Alain asked. Her brown eyes puppy like and mesmerizing, giving her a feeling that she would do anything to keep her alive and by her side. She knew now it was no turning back , she could take being around House and his sarcasm just to save her.

"Dr. House...the man who is researching your sickness is doing the best he can, and will be working hard and fast to see that you are out of here in perfect health" Cameron smiled, saying his name she didn't know if she loved him or hated him. She wanted to leave but she wanted to stat just to be around him. To see those big blue eyes and being able to talk to him even if it was about work or his sarcastic comments that he could think of for that day.

"But as of now Dr. House is making his way home, because that devil woman Cuddy has been on his buns about clinic duty, she wants me!" Cameron jumped at the sound of houses voice, she thought he had left already, she had passed his office and it was extremely deserted " Well, she wants me too for that matter." Pointing to Cameron with his cane. "I guess I'm the hott stuff around here what do you think?" He said more of a statement than a question, looking at Alain the whole time. Cameron was sure he was avoiding her for some reason, but wasn't sure why. Alain just laughed and went back to watching her television.

"Dr. House" Cameron said.

" Dr. Cameron" House responded finally looking at her. He never liked looking Allison Cameron in the eye it was like he was being pulled into a trance. He knew when he turned her down it was the right thing to do, even though he didn't want to, he was attracted to Cameron and only he know it, okay and Wilson. But he couldn't let his wall down, for all he knew behind her beauty, and words she could be another Stacy, and he couldn't handle that again.

"I was just leaving... good bye Alain" getting up from her seat to leave and noticing that Alain had finally fallen asleep, She walked to the door way face to face with House. The man who would never let her in. The man she longed for, to hold, to touch, to love.

" Well let me walk you to your car" it had escaped his dry lips before he could stop the words from coming out. She was surprised as he was from the look on her face, but there was no turning back now, it was said, and now it needed to be done.

"Um, thank you that would b nice" Walking side by side with House Cameron knew something was different. She no longer felt tense at hi side just the two of them walking down the corridors of the hospital to the parking lot. Stopping at her car House Nodded a good night and she did the same. Entering her car Cameron thought 'I'm staying nothing is going to make me leave knowing that nights like this can happen. House and I wasn't a guarantee, but there's still a chance.

I'm staying'.
