A/N: Very late Halloween fic, but better late than never, right?, This is my first smutty story, I hope you enjoy.

Halloween was one of the rare holidays that House was on board with. It ranked high up there, right behind 'National Something on a Stick Day'.
This year, however, House was not enjoying the hospital's little shindig. Something to do with him being one part melancholy, one part sloshed and three parts sexually frustrated.
Most of the nurses and younger female staffers took full advantage of the opportunity this holiday presented them to walk around scantily clad; some costumes were more scandalous than others. But that wasn't the actual reason behind him constantly gritting his teeth.
Across the room, she was adorned in a Disney Princess outfit. A long sleeved, pink, poofy dress, with a silver tiara atop her dark curls. A dress that covered all of her, except a very slight bit of cleavage.
She was a complete picture of innocence and it was driving House absolutely fucking crazy.
Lisa Cuddy was many, many things. Innocent was not one of them.
His photographic memory recalled one of many times he'd snooped through Cuddy's belongings. He'd dug up a small doll displaying the very same dress that Cuddy had on right now, the box it came in was labeled 'Sleeping Beauty', except the doll was a blonde rather than a brunette like the dean of medicine.
House would have figured Cuddy for a Beauty and the Beast kind of girl, with her naïve belief that Monsters can turn into decent human beings, if she tried hard enough to change them.
Sleeping Beauty was currently being manhandled on the dance floor by a rather huge clown. Any other day, the current scene would have offered him endless entertainment. He usually took great pleasure in Cuddy's misfortune; the two of them were public nemesis after all, and he'd always enjoyed watching her try and dig that well-formed ass out of such predicaments.
But House didn't do anything, he just kept his lusting gaze on her all night, watching and coveting, while she mingled, drank, danced and laughed. Not once did she even appear to notice his presence at her little Halloween themed fundraiser.
If there's one thing House hated more than pointless hospital related social gatherings, it was being ignored by his lovely boss at pointless hospital related social gatherings.
Especially not when she was dressed that way.
Well, it was time he changed that. House placed his empty glass back on the bar and stood up.
..TBC.
