AN: Ok so my first story I was really happy (surprised) that it got a positive response, but I'm not really sure what's next for that story (I might revisit it later)... But for now here is a new Camteen/Cadley story... It's defiantly gonna be a multi-chapter story, so enjoy!
Disclaimer: Haha obviously I totally, 150%, for all my life... will sadly never own House :(
Target Acquired
It's the end of the night, and Thirteen is just itching for some fun.
She gathered her slightly worn, gray leather jacket and brown leather messenger bag off the chair and left the DDX room, shutting the lights off behind her. Before continuing to walk down the hall, the tall brunette took one last glance back to the white board, which only hours ago was excessively crowded with the symptoms of their last patient. The patient they all had been convinced was going to die. Well, of course until house had one of his epiphanies and saved the 11 year old girl's life.
It wasn't that Thirteen wasn't happy that the little girl would be able to live out her life and grow old with someone, it was just she envied the fact that House had been so easily able to erase all her symptoms from the board as soon as the case had closed and the patient discharged. But, of course the shadow of her Huntington's still lurking in her mind, haunting her. Thirteen having constantly to question when symptoms would show and her life to be over.
She needed a distraction. Any distraction.
She pushed the elevator button, and the doors opened immediately. Pressing the indicated button for the lobby with her right hand, she checked her opposite wrist for the time. 9:28 pm. Perfect, plenty of time to hit the bar and pick up a hottie! She thought and the smiled to herself.
"You like the challenge, the conquest. It's the control that gets you off. And controlling women is as close as you can get to controlling what's going to happen to you." House's words from a few weeks back rang in her head. Thirteen almost hated that he not only wanted to know everything about everyone- but that he was so damn good at figuring it all out, even better then the person themselves. She truthfully never gave much though into who the object of her distractions were, never less why she picked them.
Except for perhaps tonight. The brunette smirked as the elevator doors opened to Cameron standing not any farther than 6 inches from the automatic opening doors.
"Oh! Hey, Dr. Hadley. What are you still doing here? Wasn't your patient discharged two hours ago?"
"Yeah. She was, but I had to catchup on some paperwork... I can ask you the same question you know. Your ER shift ended at 5, yet here you are at 9:30, hm, very interesting" she raised one perfectly shaped eyebrow at the slightly older doctor and once again, gave a smirk.
"Uh- well um- yes, I had to- um." Crap why did I come back? She hadn't known why but something about the brunette threw her from her natural confidence, and even made her thinking foggy.
Pleased with the effects she had on the blonde, curvy doctor, Thirteen struggled to hold in a giggle. "If It helps at all, you seemed to be going up, as I was going... well down." Thirteen lingered on the last word quite suggestively.
Trying to ignore her innuendo, she shook her mind back to why she had come to the hospital. "Oh um- right," Cameron giggled, "I forgot my phone in my locker, and I only noticed about an hour ago."
The elevator doors began to close, and both of the doctors hastily leapt forward to reopen them. "Right then, I guess I'll be heading out." Thirteen exited the elevator finally and took no more than two steps forward before making a sharp, yet adorably kid like turn, facing back towards the elevator doors.
"Hey Cameron, I was actually heading out for some drinks, wanna join?" She held her breath while waiting for an answer. Normally picking up an attractive women was simple, easy, carefree. But Cameron she knew. It was different, one might say more of a challenge.
"Yep sounds good, be down in a minute." And the doors gracefully closed uninterrupted by anything. Thirteen stood there still holding her breath. She never imagined the answer to be so nonchalant and... and... Crap now she was the one with a foggy mind.
