The Itsy Bitsy Spider
House cheerfully stole Wilson's tuna sandwich and ignored the stunned and irritated look from a very hungry Wilson.
"You're welcome." Wilson muttered as he pulled out another sandwich that happened to be roast beef. House paused mid-chew.
"You knew I was going to steal your sandwich." He accused as Wilson tucked into his much tastier roast beef sandwich. Wilson grinned while chewing slowly and said nothing. House continued grousing as he munched. Cuddy walked in looked flustered.
"Wilson, leave, I need to talk to House." Wilson's jaw dropped and a bit of half-chewed roast beef fell out. House grimaced at him. Wilson stood up hesitantly. Cuddy had a deadly look about her and Wilson feared any sudden movements might provoke her. He wasn't too happy about getting kicked out of his own office, but he went silently, taking his sandwich with him.
House smiled and batted his eyelashes at Cuddy, who ignored House's supremely blue eyes.
"Now what could you want with little ol' me?" He said in a southern accent and a slightly higher pitch. She glared and took Wilson's purloined tuna sandwich from him. "Well if you wanted lunch then Wilson may have to start bringing three sandwiches everyday. And he thought he was being smart." Cuddy put the sandwich on the desk behind House and stood very close to him. House smirked as he noted their proximity. "Well if you wanted to screw around you should've sentenced me to clinic duty, softer surface." She sighed exasperatedly.
"House, you know who sent me the rose and don't deny it," She added the last part as he opened his mouth to object. He shut his mouth and pouted at her while inwardly panicking. What to do now? When in doubt, tell them something they won't believe.
"You're right I do know." Cuddy looked smug. "It was the giant space nerd. He's admired you from Pluto, and even though it's not a planet anymore, I'm sure you'll be happy there. He's come to take you home and he recruited me to help." She did something he'd never expected. She smacked him across the face. House felt his shock show through. He stared at her open mouthed.
"Jackass." She said and she turned around and strode out. He felt vexation rise in him. He wasn't mad at her. He was mad at himself. He sat down on Wilson's desk and hopped up as he realized he'd just sat on the tuna sandwich. For the rest of the day, he ignored the odd glances he got for walking around with a tuna sandwich stain on the seat of his pants. Cuddy avoided House like the plague and he realized exactly how much he'd pissed her off. He kept beating himself up over it and desperately struggled to come up with something to make her happy. When his idea hit him, he grinned like a mad bat and slinked out early to put his plan into action.
Cuddy wanted to hit House over the head with his own cane and that wasn't a normal reaction to his comments but then again, this wasn't a normal comment she'd wanted. She was more certain than ever that House knew who her admirer was and he didn't want to tell her. She'd hurt him if he didn't tell her. Clinic duty for a month, she thought.
As she opened the door to her house she hardly noticed the soft candle light from the living room. She almost walked right past the candle lit coffee table. She froze and did a double-take. Her coffee table had been covered with a soft purple tablecloth and a silver candelabrum with red candles. There was a box of assorted chocolates sitting next to the candles as well as another perfect blue rose and card. She picked up the card. It read: Love comes in many ways and shapes. Keep you're mind open to all the possibilities. It was again, unsigned. She read it over and over and wondered who this man was. The chocolates were her favorite kind and the rose was the most gorgeous thing she'd seen since she left her office and the blue rose that resided there. She set the rose in a vase, which she placed next to her bed. She paused to wonder how her mystery man had gotten in and how he'd known what her favorite chocolates were. She knew her mystery man knew her well. She knew he was sweet. She also knew he was a romantic. She had no clue who he was.
