*Hi! I've really gotten in to House recently. I always loved "A bit of Fry and Laurie", but I never actually looked into other things that he has done. So now I'm obsessed! Enjoy! XD*

Summery: After Wilson left, House felt he needed to get a little perspective on life. Hilson eventually.

A planet shaped toolbox

Six weeks notice

Greg House had weighed out all his options; he was cretin that this was not just some whim that with proper time and thort would pass. This was something that needed to be done.

But it was new and therefore frightening.

Wilson was gone, had been for over a month now, so there really wasn't much teying him to PPTH anymore. But it was still a sad moment when he handed the letter over to Cuddy.

"What's this?" She sighed, the annoyance clear in her tone.

House put on a grim smile, "My letter of resignation…. Or my six weeks notice, whatever you like to call it."

Cuddy just gaped. When no sound came from her for over a minute House felt he had to fill the silence, "Well at least your not jumping for joy, or are you just saving me from having to watch?"

Cuddy swallowed thickly, trying to get her poor head in order. Even them she only managed one word. "Why?"

House sighed, "Would you believe me if I said I wanted to go into early retirement?" When Cuddy just stared flatly at him he got the answer he had ecspected, "didn't think so..."

House scratched his bran looking for a suitably explanation, that didn't sound idiotic as it did in his head. He found none, so opted for the truth instead. "I need to get away, not just from this hospital or the people in it….. I need…. I need to get away from me." Cus I really hate what I'm becoming…

Cuddy looked at him for a moment longer, as if trying to gage his sincerity by just intently looking in to his eyes. "Do you really want to do this?" She asked, as if already knowing the answer.

"Yes"

"Then all I can say..." She sighed, thinking, "is good luck and the position is always open…. When you need it."

A faint smile ghosted the diagnosticians lips as he said a quiet thank you, he left in just the same manner.
