Okay, this is a song fic. Thank you to Ellis CassidyTVNut. Who was my inspiration and to let her know that no matter how many obstacles that are in life, in the end everything will be just fine.

As always to Preppi101 who's always here if I need her.

.

My yesterdays are all boxed up and neatly put away
But every now and then you come to mind

House POV: It's been 20 years since I've known you; I try desperately to forget the past.

Sometimes I put you through hell and then I regret it, but I'll never admit it.

I never stop thinking about you.

Day or night. You haunt my days and my dreams.

'Cause you were always waiting to be picked to play the game
But when your name was called, you found a place to hide

Cuddy POV: We've been playing this game far too long, since the moment I hired you.

We would flirt openly, you would make sexual remarks, I would just smile.

The tension grew during the years but we chose to ignore it.

Hoping secretly that the other would make the first move.

When you knew that I was always on your side.

Cuddy Pov:I've never stopped protecting you, you may think it was always out of guilt, but you're wrong.

It was only because I love you. I saved your job, your life the only thing I needed to save now, is your heart.


Well everything was easy then, so sweet and innocent
My demons and my angels reappeared

Cuddy POV: Yes, in med-school, everything seemed easier, we were happy. We cared for each other.

Well we still do, but can you believe it?


Leavin' only traces of the man you thought I'd be

House POV: I've changed during the years, I realized that, but it wasn't for the better, only the worse.

No matter how hard I tried to push you away, I'll always find you close by.


Too afraid to hear the words I'd always feared
Leavin' you with so many questions all these years.

House POV: I love you, are those words.I'm afraid you'll no longer love me.

But here's finally your answer that you have been waiting for: I Love You.

Is there some place far away, some place where all is clear
Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear

Cuddy POV: I wish I could just go away and run off with the person you truly are,

And never be afraid of losing you once more.


Or are you left to wander, all alone, eternally

Cuddy POV: Do you really want to push us away? Do you really want to be lonely and miserable?

What do you really want? Are you willing to give me up, just for vicodin?


This isn't how it's really meant to be
No, it isn't how it's really meant to be.

Cuddy POV: We've promised ourselves so long ago, that we will be together for the rest of time.

One more dream, one more hope, one more wish. Shattered.

Well they say that love is in the air, but never is it clear,
How to pull it close and make it stay

Cuddy POV: Wilson has tried to bring us together, but without success. He's a real-matchmaker.


Butterflies are free to fly, and so they fly away
And I'm left to carry on and wonder why
Even through it all, I'm always on your side.

Cuddy POV: I wish I could do anything I want to do. But we're in reality, so it will never happen.

Those are what dreams are meant for.

We can always dream and wish, but it gets depressing when after all these years they still haven't come true.

So you tend you lose control, and let all feelings flow and just let me go.
And forget that I'm always here, waiting for you to come back to me.


Is there some place far away, some place where all is clear
Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear

House POV: Now there is, when I'm close to you, I tend to forget everything else.

I just wish I could tell you.


Or are we left to wander, all alone, eternally ?
But this isn't how it's really meant to be

House POV: I don't want to be miserable anymore, I only want you close to me.

Close to my heart, isn't and will never be enough until you know the truth.

I love you.


No, it isn't how it's really meant to be.

House POV: My leg changed me, I didn't want it to happen, that's what I was afraid of.

My worst fears have come true.

It's like you're gone. Forever.

And pain has replaced you. Only misery.

Well they say that love is in the air, never is it clear
How to pull it close and make it stay

House POV: We grew a part, it's true, no need denying it.

But it's like our love is a magnet, always coming closer and closer. Until sometime they're like glued together and they can't be separated.


Butterflies are free to fly, why do they fly away ?
Leavin' me to carry on and wonder why

House POV: Stacy left me, but you're still here, despite all the things I've done to you.

I'm grateful for that.

But do you see it?

Probably not.

That's going change.

I'm not ready to let you go.


Was it you that kept me wandering through this life?
When you know that I was always on your side.

House POV: You were the one who have been helping me through it all.

You stayed by my side, for the end of time.

I was secretly always watching over you, protecting you.

Feeling like it was my responsibility.

Because no matter what.

I love you.

I'm ready to tell you.

You proved me that you won't give up on me.

I came to you on a lonely night

Confessed it all to you.

All you could do was do the same.

Today will change tomorrow.

And tomorrow, I know will be the same for years to come.

We will be together.

I was right because here we are years later

A couple.

Husband and wife.

Mother and Father.

Grandmother and grandfather.

Old and still together.

Sick and leaving earth.

We'll live through each other.

We'll never be separated.

No matter where we are.

Long ago,

We made a pact

Not even 'till death do we part.

We went to the sky together.

Leaving everything behind, but our love.

Always, Forever together.
