Prologue
Bella was your average student; a good student. She got straight A's and did all of her homework. She was obsessed with perfection and never did anything out of the ordinary.
With the exception of that one occasion, but she wouldn't think of that. It was a bad experience.
She worked on her homework for her Anatomy and Physiology class. She was sweating and all achy, but wouldn't put off her homework, no matter how much it hurt to write. She thought her pain was strange, but wouldn't stop. She went to grab her bottle of water and she hit the floor, unable to stand up.

Jacob, Jared, and Paul walked into the office of the infamous Dr. Gregory House. They had all been working directly for the head of Diagnostic Medicine for years and loved their work, but yet, they hated their boss.
"Morning." House walked in with his cane in hand, limping over to the coffee. "You already drank all the coffee. How ironic!" House rolled his eyes as Jake started on making the coffee.
"We just got here, House."
"You're running late then. Where are our possible cases for today then?" Jared sat down the case files on the table and threw one at Jacob, who had just come from the emergency room to scour for possible patients.
"There is only one." House was surprised, but didn't show it.
"Okay. What is so special about this one?" House turned around and leaned against the counter, crossing his arms.
"Female, 25, no history of illness. She collapsed in her dorm room and has a fever, terrible body pain, has a hard time going to the restroom." House rolled his eyes.
"Boring! Find another one." He went to walk out and walk around the hospital while waiting on the coffee.
"There is a twist, House." He stopped and turned to Paul who was leaned over the table, stretching.
"What is it, Lahote?"
"She is pregnant so you have a time frame before she miscarries her child from being this sick." House nodded and looked thoughtful.
"Walk with me." Everyone followed their boss out the door and walked down the hall. "What do you guys think?" Jared was the first to speak.
"Bone cancer, possibly." Jacob was the next to respond.
"But her leukocytes are normal."
"If her leukocytes are normal, then what does that mean?" House asked to get his men thinking.
"Her body hasn't registered that she is sick." Paul responded.
"If her body hasn't registered she is sick, then what?" House asked.
"We should probably do another round of tests. Lumbar puncture, tox screen, the works." Jacob spoke with concentration.
"Well, then get to it. We will start with a lumbar puncture and work our way from there. Black, you can handle that, can't you?"
Leave me some feedback. Thanks for reading!
