As much as I'd like to I don't own Lie to Me or House. This is my first crossover so please R&R
Jason Everheart stormed out of the office. There was only one person who would listen and had the power to do something about his predicament, the President. Jason was outside the President's room, he knocked. Then as the President opened the door Jason crumpled to the ground and started convulsing. Medics were on the scene in seconds and within an hour Jason was being rushed into Princeton Hospital. Cuddy had been in the process of leaving, it was late, when a dozen FBI and some medics rushed into her hospital.
"Excuse me what's going on?"
"Ma'am you need to get out of the way. Quite frankly it's none of your business."
"Like hell it isn't my business, this is my hospital. I have a right to know who the FBI is bringing into it!"
"Oh, I'm sorry ma'am, I didn't know. My name is Agent Jefferson. I'm with the FBI, we need your help."
Agent Jefferson proceeded to tell Cuddy about that days events. Lisa smiles, she knew exactly who they were here to see.
"And you want House on the case right?"
"Yes"
"Alright I'll see if I can get a hold of him."
Agent Jefferson left Cuddy and went to go and help everyine get Jason into a room. Meanwhile Cuddy called House. The odds weren't good, it was 11pm and House would most likely not answer the phone.
"Hello?"
By some miracle House picked up.
"House, we've got a case."
"I don't care, it's to late to be working."
"House the FBI requested you, it's an interesting case."
House contemplated it for a while then responded.
"Fine, gimme a minute though, I am a criple after all."
Cuddy hung up and went to go check on Jason. House arrived an hour later.
"What's so special that you woke me up at some ungodly hour of the night?"
"Ah, you must be Dr. Gregory House."
"Who's asking?"
House was still wary of people asking for him. The last time someone asked for him he got shot.
"I'm Agent Jefferson with the FBI, we need your help."
Then Agent Jefferson debriefed House on the case. House grew more and more intrigued the more he learned about Jason Everheart.
That was a little over 24 hours ago and now with Cuddy, Wilson, Foreman, Chase, Cameron, Taub, and 13 standing in front of him, House began to hate Jason.
"Ideas?"
"It's not cancer"
"As of now it isn't neurological"
"Not an STD"
"Not-
"I didn't ask what it wasn't. I asked what it was!"
House snapped, it had been over 48 hours since he had gotten a decent amount of sleep, and his leg was bothering him. Absentmindedly House popped some vicodin into his mouth and Cuddy turned to leave.
"Where do you think you're going?"
"Look, we know one of Jason's collegues is hiding something. Considering Jason's line of work we need to know who and why. I'm going to call the FBI for some help."
"We don't need any help."
House answered back, but Cuddy was already gone. Once she was in her office Lisa picked up the phone and dialed the number Agent Jefferson had left her.
"Hello?"
The receptionist sounded tired.
"Yes, this is Lisa Cuddy, I need to talk to Agent Jefferson."
"What are you calling about?"
"I'm one of the doctors working on Jason Everheart."
"One moment please."
That seemed to wake the receotionist up, to hear Jason's name.
"Hello?"
"Hi Agent Jefferson, it's me Dr. Cuddy."
"Oh hello, how's Jason?"
"Nothing new, it's all we can do right now to keep him stable. However I'm not calling to update, I'm calling because we need some help. Someone is lying and we need to know who and why."
"I'll make some calls and get back to you in a minute."
Agent Jefferson knew just the people to call.
"Hello?"
"Dr. Lightman, this is Agent Jefferson with the FBI. I need you, Dr. Cal Lightman, and your team on a plane to New Jersey. We have a charter plane ready to take off as soon as you're ready. This is a very important case."
"Alright I'll get Cal and our team then we'll take off."
"Good, thank you Dr. Lightman."
They hung up and Agent Jefferson redialed Cuddy.
"Hello?"
"Yes, Dr. Cuddy, I'm calling in some specialists, get ready to greet them in a few hours."
The moment Gillian hung up she went straight to Cal's office.
"Cal we have to go to Jersey, all of us. We have an important case. FBI."
"What?!"
"Just c'mon Cal, besides I'll make it up to you tonight."
Cal smiled as he remembered their wedding day. He'd thanked God everyday since then that he'd been allowed to wake up every morning with Gillian at his side.
"Fine, but remember you are so mine tonight."
Gillian smiled as Cal stood up and kissed her passionately. About 30 minutes later Cal, Gillian, Ria, and Loker were on a plane to New Jersey. A couple of hours later they were in a shuttle taht dropped them off in front of Princeton Hospital. House and company were in the lobby when Cal and his team walked in. The moment Cal saw House he put on his best neutral face, but Gillian could practically feel the anger seeping from his pores.
"Cal"
House inclined his head slightly.
"Greg"
Cal gave Greg a curt nod.
"It's so good to see you again"
"Don't insult my intelligence by forgetting what I do for a living."
Gillian saw the contempt, anger, and disgust flash across Cal's face. Lasting for less than a hundreth of a second. Gillian looked from Cal to House and then back to Cal again.
"You guys know each other?"
"I knew him a long time ago. At least I thought I did."
Cal glared at House who glared back.
"Well since you guys know each other would you mind introducing everyone?"
Cuddy was trying to distract the two men engaged in a stare down, she was afraid it might turn into a fight.
"This is Cuddy, Wilson, Taub, Chase, Cameron, 13, and Foreman, and I'm obviously Dr. Gregory House."
"This is Ria Torres, my protoge, Eli Loker or as we call him, Mr. Radical Honesty, and this is Gillian Lightman, my wife, and I'm obviously Dr. Cal Lightman."
All of Cal's team noticed Cal's emphasis on Gillian being his wife, and everyone on Cal's team saw the surprise and irritation on House's face.
