Hello hello everyone. Yes I know it's been over 2 years since I updated. I lost interest in writing for a while with all my classes requiring writing in them. But here is a chapter and I hope you like it. I'm still looking for a beta so if you'd like to volunteer ^_^

I do not own House or anyone of the characters... although if I did House and Cameron would have gotten together in season 1!

How could she have been so stupid?

This was the question she had asked herself time and time again through out her life. Others had asked her the same thing when she was younger. She couldn't help but blame it on the blond hair back then. Now with her darker locks ,she didn't even have that excuse.

As she walked down the hallway of Princeton Plainsboro, the click-clack of her heels nearly demanded that people respect her. She could stomp down the hallway and interns would scurry just knowing she worked for House. It seemed as if with a snap of her finger she could have him swoop down and well she didn't really know what he would do exactly.

She chuckled at the mental image of House dressed as a vampire appearing out of thin air only to carry a poor intern off to his doom. She was broken out of her inner thoughts as someone appeared beside her.

"What are you smiling about?" Foreman asked as he walked around the nurse station counter.

"Oh so that's where you were," her head nodding toward the clinic, "House was wondering where you had run off to. Of course he decided you had run off to go break into someone's car," Cameron trailed off not entirely sure how to end her thought.

Foreman grumbled. "Yeah House was the one who sent me there," he said reaching up to unfasten his name badge. As he handed it to her she shook her head but smiled despite herself.

"I really should have known when you weren't there this morning. He sent Chase to the clinic right after he finished complaining about you not being there."

"I swear that man must have a drawer full of name badges. I'm pretty sure I have at least six of his myself."

"Yeah that does sound like him," she stopped walking, "but I'll see you in a little while. Cuddy called me to her office to talk to me about something," she said as she turned to look at him.

"Oh. Is everything alright?" he asked, his voice concerned.

"Yeah, she just wanted to ask me about something House did," she said as she walked away. She really hated lying to him like that, but of course she couldn't just come out and tell him the truth. It really wasn't any of his business anyway; she reasoned with herself.

She stopped in front of the wooden door of Cuddy's office willing herself to knock. Cuddy and herself had never been on a friend level. If anything the only thing they shared was House, or rather having to put up with him on a daily basis. And the fact that they were both women. She hoped Cuddy would understand her situation, seeing that the two things she shared with her would make it clear why this step was needed.

Raising her fist to knock, she was shocked when the door was yanked away suddenly and a woman came barging out screaming at her.

"House! Where the hell have. Oh Dr. Cameron I thought you were House. I asked him to come to my office over an hour ago. I'm sorry," she trailed off.

Slightly frazzled but none worse the wear, Cameron answered quietly. "No it's my fault. I didn't have an appointment or anything."

"Unless you're House you don t need one. I only make him have one so I know when I need to save my voice. House equals yelling," the older woman quipped. Returning to her position behind her desk; she motioned for Cameron to sit down.

"So what s up?" Cuddy began, "I haven't seen any nurses running down the hall screaming or had any patients threaten to sue us today so I assume it's still about House."

"Well."Cameron was at a loss for words. In all actuality it was about House, just not the way Cuddy meant. "I wanted to talk to you about a change of position for a while."

"Oh my God, what has House done now?!" Cuddy yelped out as she stood up in her chair, "First he terrorizes the patients and makes the nurses cry but really? Did he really have to drive away his own team? I though he liked you for God s sake," she continued on, mainly talking to herself as she picked up her phone and put it back down a few times.

Cameron couldn't help but smile. Cuddy did care; maybe not about her exactly but at least about the team sticking together. She had a sinking feeling that it was because House would never hire another team but she chose to ignore that.

After several attempts to get Cuddy's attention, Cameron yelled, "Lisa!"

"Oh, I m sorry. I m just so mad at House right now. If I knew where he was I would take his cane and chuck it out the window or something," she said losing quite a bit of her steam.

"Don t worry about House. He hasn't done anything to drive us away. It's not even really about him," she said trying to steer the conversation away from him. "I need a change for my health or rather the health of my child," her hand coming to rest on her still flat belly.
