Monday morning had arrived and for House it was a typical Monday. He had arrived at work two hours late and was now hiding in his office to avoid doing clinic duty. House didn't have a case this week, not that Cuddy hadn't tried to give him something but nothing had peeked his interest. House was now sitting at his computer, partaking in his new favorite activity, breaking into co-workers email accounts.

Wilson's had been easy to break into. The man was so trusting that he never changed his password. House had figured out weeks ago, without much effort, that Amber was still his password. Pathetic, House thought to himself, this guy needs to get laid. And to be perfectly honest, Wilson never had any email that was worth the effort. Cuddy's, on the other hand, was much harder to crack. Maybe it was because she wasn't a trusting person or maybe it was because House was her employee, but she changed her password every week. Little did she know that changing her password only made the challenge more exciting for House.

He spent the better part of his morning trying to break into Cuddy's account. His team had tried to get his attention only once but seeing how intently he was starring at the computer they figured he was researching adult videos over the internet and decided not to bother him.

In the weeks past, Cuddy had varied her passwords between personal information and medical terminology. Last week had been a medical term, neuro-syphilis, so House was trying personal passwords. He had already tried Rachel, Princeton, Doctor, Michigan, House (Yes, he knew it had been a long shot but wouldn't it have been ironic if that had been the password?) and about a hundred other things before Wilson came to House's office asking if he was ready for lunch. House agreed, leaving his computer and limping to the cafeteria with his friend.

Wilson and House sat at a table eating Wilson's lunch seeing as House was just taking whatever he wanted off of Wilson's tray when Cuddy entered the room. House watched as she scanned the room and then walked towards their table. House loved to watch her walk. Her tight black skirt accentuated her hips and showed of her long legs, that appeared even longer because of the slim heels she worn. She had on a red low cut sweater that clung to her petite form like a second skin. Her perfume hit the table first, a light flowery scent that wasn't overwhelming. House continued to stare as she stopped in front of them.

"Take a picture, House," said Cuddy looking amused. "It will last longer."

"Sure, I have a photo studio set up in my apartment. Of course it is for photos to be later sold on the internet, a lucrative side business I might add, but I can make an exception for you." House mocked Cuddy. "Care to join me later?"

Cuddy groaned and turned to face Wilson. "I am leaving for the conference in Des Moines in about an hour, so if you want me to approve that experimental plan for your leukemia patient, then it needs to be now or wait till I get back in to days." As Cuddy was speaking, a light bulb went off in House's head. Des Moines! He thought excitedly.

House stood up from his seat and left the cafeteria with out so much as a word to either Wilson or Cuddy. They exchanged a look and Wilson shrugged before going to Cuddy's office to discuss hospital business.

House hurried to his office and staggered in front of his computer. He quickly pulled up Cuddy's email account on an open window and typed the word Des Moines. He laughed as he was allowed access. House began to scroll through Cuddy's email looking for anything interesting that he could hold against her. He was bored with all the emails that seemed to be articles from medical journeys and was about to give up when she stumbled upon an email that caught his eye.

The subject line said, "New Flirt Alert From .com". House clicked on the email and realized it was an automatic response from an online dating site especially for doctors, House clicked on the link and was directed to Cuddy's profile or as she was more commonly known. A picture of Cuddy flashed across the screen. Wow, she looks hot, House thought to himself. As he explored the page, he saw sections where she could list her hobbies and interests as well as relationship expectations. House had no interest in these areas and skipped down to the area that listed comments by male users.

As House scanned the comments, he noticed that most of the doctors who had left messages were, for lack of a better word nerds. No wonder Cuddy hadn't found anyone worth dating on this site. House began to search through the site looking for any doctors that he may know. House broke down laughing when he came upon a user whose name was HotStuff202. Up popped a picture of Wilson, trying to look suave and debonair. As he laughed at Wilson, a wicked idea came to House. He clicked on the link that would register new users.

House sat back and created a doctor, one so perfect he was sure to make any women, especially Cuddy, swoon. He was charming and caring and funny and all that other crap that women seem to want in a man. House then searched the internet to find a devilishly handsome man to post as his profile picture. The last piece to the puzzle was to come up with the perfect user name. House fought with himself for a long time as he tried to decide on a name for his perfect man before settling on an user id.

"Watch out ," House said to the empty room as he sent Cuddy a comment from his perfect doctor, "TrueLove1959 is in the game."
