Title: Finally

Rating: G

Summary: It's taken you most of your life to belong. H/W friendship. Drabble.

A/N: I posted this yonks ago somewhere, but never here. Organized, I am not.

When you were a med student, you ate alone, at a corner table. You grouped your books around you like friends, and pretended not to care when nobody asked to share the table.

When you first came to Princeton you ate at a center table. You pretended not to care that your colleagues were suspicious of your success.

You eat at a corner table again, with House. He doesn't give a damn about your success, and his reputation scares away those who do. Sometimes, you make him laugh.

World domination doesn't matter. You're just happy to be something to someone.
