Family Ties

AN: Here it is...I was going to upload it tomorrow but I live to write and I write to live, it's a vicious circle...

Disclaimer: I do not own any character in House whatsoever; unless I win the EuroLotto and become a billionaire…maybe then they'll sell it to me…

Homecoming

She was back in New Jersey and had sold up in London to come and live here. New Jersey bore a lot of memories for Erica House but none more vivid than two months ago.

She had kept in contact with her brother and James Wilson within those two months, but both men missed her solely. They had both kept themselves busy with work to block out the yearning. Wilson was worse than House, he never knew that love like this hurt so much, every call they had made to each other reminded him of the distance between them, and it hurt his heart so. Wilson began to mope around the apartment and House tried his best to keep Wilson's spirits up. He gave encouraging words such as "She'll be back soon." and if he was in a jokey mood he'd come out with "At least she calls you, that must mean she's still interested." But Wilson remained in a moping mood, how he wished she'd come back…

--------------------------------

It was five o'clock and Erica was certain Greg should be home. If anything he would've escaped from work around lunch-time to grab a Rueben and chill in front of the TV.

Erica knocked on the door and stood patiently waiting for the door to be opened. She waited there two minutes and knocked against the door again.

"Greg!" she called through the letterbox.

House woke with a start; he looked around the apartment and thought he heard a female calling him.

"Must be Cameron" he though to himself and ignored it.

"Greg." Erica called again.

"Cameron doesn't call me Greg…That sounds like…"

House got up from the sofa and limped over to the front door; he opened it slightly and saw suitcases on the floor. He opened it a bit more to reveal Erica standing there with her cheeks showing a hint of pink.

"Hey." She waved.

"Erica…what are you doing here?" House asked speechless.

"I've come to move in with you." She smiled.
