Sam Reed had been working under Gregory House for a little over a year now. She was only supposed to be there to replace Allison while she was on leave with her son. But as it would turn out Allison had found that she couldn't leave her son to go back to work.

Allison had finally decided that her thing with Chase wasn't what she wanted. She was still in love with Greg and would always be. They'd gotten together after a really hard case one night. One thing led to another and the next thing they knew they were pregnant.

They'd been married for a little over three months now the same age their son was. They'd tied the knot just days after he was born. He'd been born at midnight on April 12th. Allison went through 18 hours of labor with him. Greg spent his time between his office and Allison when she was talking to him or when she was sleeping. They were going to do a c-section when he finally decided that he'd join the world.

Allison and Greg had decided to name him Robert Gregory House. Robert had been a very close uncle of Allison's that she'd lost when she was a senior in high school. When Allison had first told him the name Greg wasn't going for it. However when she told him that it had been a very close uncle of hers then he'd gone for it. Of course he fought her for a while just so no one could say he was going soft. They of course called him Robby for short so as not to confuse Chase when they were talking.

Allison had come back to work but only a couple of days a week. Her job now was being a stay at home mom with her son. Not that Greg minded because he didn't trust anyone outside of his team to take care of Robby. Of course she was often found in House's office with their son. Greg had become less grumpy over the last year. The guys joked that it was because he got some every night but really it was his son that had changed his attitude. Greg of course would never tell anyone that's what it was.

Sam had come to New Jersey looking for a fresh start from her old life. No one knew about her past and that's the way she'd like to keep it. Not that it was going to happen because in less then a week's time someone from her past would come back. He would open wounds that Sam had been trying to mend over the last year. He would also bring the one secret that Sam held close to her heart to the light. This man would not only stir up old feelings Sam had but also put her new relationship with James Wilson on the rocky side. Sam of course knew none of this. All she knew was if she didn't get down to the clinic right now to do House's hours then he'd have her butt for it.

AN: Please review!! And I'll be going back and talking about her past later on.

AN2: Just as a pre-warning this will have House and Ally along with James in it. But for the most part it centers on Sam and her ex.
