Time : Near future

Place : Princeton Plainsboro hospital (Gregory House's office)


They're selling postcards of the hanging.

House was sleeping in his chair when suddenly Foreman, 13 and Taub entered.

"House!" Foreman yelled in the office, followed by 13 and Taub. House woke up a little annoyed.

"What is it now? Can't you see I'm sleeping?" He said rather angrily.

"No kidding Sherlock?" Taub said.

"Look who's talking. I suppose the results were positive right?" House said.

"How did you know?" 13 said surprised.

"Leap of faith. So it's Lupus. Put him on the antibiotics."

"Come on House, it's never Lupus." Foreman said.

"Sue me. Is it my fault it is?" House stood up and started walking away.

"Where are you going?" said Taub.

"To have sex with your wife." House said sarcastically. He went to the elevator and went to the ground floor. First thing he saw was Wilson.

"House! How's the patient?" He yelled.

"Yes, it was Lupus. Now leave me alone." House said walking directly past him.

"What? So it WAS Lupus? Wow, well that's...that's...where are you going?"

"To have sex with your...WOOPS! Already said that one. Can you wait for a second? The time I find some witty response."

"Okay. Okay. I get it. You know, you COULD just ask me to leave." Wilson said

"Really?" House said sarcastically. Wilson left to see some other patient of his. House went to Cuddy's office. When he entered the office Cuddy was doing somthing at the window, probably watering plants. Of course, this didn't bother House, he had a good view of her ass. He said

"You know, when you wear those kind of clothes, you make my softwear go to hardwear." Cuddy turned around.

"God House, that's just disgusting." She said. "How's the patient?"

"Why is every one so interested in the patient? Don't I count as anything anymore?" House said sarcatically, but he became serious quickly. "It was Lupus, I put him on the antibiotics. In a month, or a week, he'll be able to get out of this hospital to get run over by a truck and come back."

"Good." she said ignoring the hit-and-run comment. House looked at the ceiling and asked rather shily.

"So, how's Rachel?" Cuddy was surprised of his remark.

"Oh, she's...she's fine... she turned nine just last week, but... you know that right?"

"If I know it? You sent messages to everyone about her birthd...*KOF KOF KOF*...uh. Any...*KOF KOF*" He took a tissueand coughed in it.

"House, are you alright?" Cuddy said. His cough was far from a normal cough. It was too brutal.

"*KOF KOF* What does it look lik..." There was an unusual silence. He kept looking at his tissue.

"House?" She didn't have any time to say something else. He had already left.

And on his tissue was blood. And he knew that it wasn't normal.
