I'm back with an all new story. It's vacation time for these Houses.
Disclaimer for all things House M.D.
"Tyler, I don't want you going nowhere near that casino. You either, Greg." Cuddy said as they entered the first room of the king suite.
"You're not my mother. Tyler's on the other hand..." House stopped mid sentence after receiving the death glare from Cuddy. "Tyler, no casino." House quickly said. Jordan laughed as he threw himself in one of the room's over-sized chairs. Tyler smacked his lips.
"I'm thirteen. What would I be doing at a casino?"
"You're always doing things that you have no business doing." Cuddy said as she began to unpack her bags.
"Yeah. For instance, you were walking at nine months. You had no business walking at nine months." House said. Cuddy rolled her eyes for the millionth time in her life.
"That's not what I was talking about."
"It's true though."
Seventeen year old Rachel and four year old Alexis walked into the room. "You guys owe me five dollars and seventy-five cents. Let's just make it six bucks. She wanted everything in the vending machine." Rachel finished sitting down opposite of Jordan.
"Alexis, sweetie, I told you to get one thing." Cuddy sighed. "Rachel?" Rachel shrugged.
"I had to get some candy for Daddy." Alexis walked over to her daddy and lifted her arms for him to pick her up, in which he obliged. "See, Daddy, I got your best-est one!" She said holding out a Snicker's bar.
"Best-est is not a word sweetie." Cuddy corrected. Alexis rolled her eyes in a Lisa Cuddy-like manner.
"Yeah, it's me teaching them all the bad stuff." House said, stifling a laugh as he put Alexis back on the ground. He sat on the bed before stretching out on it. Cuddy looked at him.
"You're just going to lay there? You're not going to help me unpack any of these bags?"
"You seem like you had it under control." Cuddy shook her head and continued unpacking.
"Wait a minute. I spent six bucks just so you can get Dad some candy?" Rachel said.
"What's wrong with getting Dad some candy?" House asked.
"Yeah, what's wrong with Daddy getting some candy?" Alexis asked Rachel while putting her hand on her hip. Alexis, obviously not a baby anymore, looks like a mini version of Cuddy. From the dark curls to the eye-roll. She had her mother's attitude and her persona but much like her brothers she could cause mayhem (a trait that all seven House kids learned from Dad). Speaking of her brothers...
"Mom, tell these twits to stop following me." A seven year old Josh said as he rolled on his wheely shoes through the door that connected the two rooms.
Three year old identical twins Jacob and Justin came rolling in after Josh in matching shoes. "Mom, tell these twits to stop following me." They parroted.
Jacob Aaron House was two minutes older than Justin Gregory House. They were a spitting image to Josh when he was three, except they didn't have the green eyes like Josh and Alexis. They had House's sharp blue eyes. They acted like Josh, too. Very smart for three year olds and very manipulative.
And they wanted to do everything Josh did.
Everything.
And Josh was at his end.
"Boys, cut it out." Cuddy said to the twins in a stern voice.
"Boys, cut it out." House mocked her. Cuddy exhaled deeply. "Greg..."
Jordan laughed out loud. "This family," he paused, "is nuts. Tyler, let's go down to the pool." He said, while getting off the chair. Tyler gave a quiet nod. Rachel closed her phone and stood, also.
"I'm going to go too."
"Rachel, take your sister." Cuddy said while moving to unpack another bag. Now it's Rachel turn to roll her eyes as she reluctantly told Rachel to come with her.
"Can I bring my floaties?" Alexis asked excitedly.
"Whatever." Rachel said as she followed Jordan and Tyler out of the room.
"Don't leave me here with these losers." Josh said as he chased after his siblings.
"Don't leave me here with these losers." Justin and Jake ran after Josh and their older brothers and sisters.
"Boys, stop running."
"Did they just call us losers?" House asked still staring over at the door the boys left through.
"I wonder where they learned it from?" Cuddy asked while looking over at him incredulously.
"Didn't you hear them? They copied Josh."
"I wonder where he learned it from?"
"I wonder that sometimes myself."
"What I've been wondering is; how did you get all four of these rooms on such short notice?" They had both the king suites leaving them with a total of four rooms. Jordan and Tyler would share a room that connected to Rachel and Alexis' shared room. And Cuddy and House's room would connect with the younger boys.
"I... pulled some strings."
At the front desk...
"I'm sorry Sir, but there aren't any King suites available." The young male desk clerk informed.
"What do you mean 'there aren't any King suites available'? I've had these rooms booked for weeks." The man was getting more irritated by the second.
"We have two Queen rooms left." The desk clerk tried negotiating.
"I don't want any Queen rooms; I want the rooms I booked. Why aren't they available?" The man urged with pure anger in his voice.
"It seems you canceled yesterday..." The clerk started.
"Convenient..." The man interrupted.
"And they were booked shortly after."
"And you found that a coincidence?" The man sighed, annoyed. "What kind of idiots work here?"
"Sir..."
"You said 'they' as in both rooms. One family booked both rooms?" The man inquired.
"Yes, Sir."
"Great." He said sarcastically. "Is both Queen rooms on the same floor?"
"Yes, Sir. Fifteenth floor. Right after the King Suites."
"Fantastic. Now we get to neighbor the family that stole our rooms. Just wonderful, isn't it?" He looked back at his wife and children; who haven't said anything the entire time.
"I guess I'll take the both Queens." The man pulled out his wallet to fish his credit card. The desk clerk did the exchange and gave the man four room keys: two for each room.
"Rooms 1504 and 1505. Have a nice stay."
"Well, you already ruined that." The man said as the bellboy came over to handle the family's bags.
Just then a set of seven children, that the man knew, oh, so well, walked by in a line from tallest to shortest. Alexis Nicole House spotted him first.
"Hi, Uncle Wilson." She beamed.
"House." Wilson muttered under his breath.
Shorter than I intended. I'll try to make the rest of them longer.
If I were you, I'd press that button below. It says 'Review'. It'll send you to a place where there's unicorns and ponies, cotton candy and rainbows. Or it might ask you to leave a short message about the chapter you just read. Try it, you might get lucky.
