House was getting used to have Scarlet living next door . They actually started to be friends , or only neighbors with benefits , as Greg would say . Sometimes they would play poker with Wilson at House's , sometimes House just would have an ice cream and watch a movie in her apartment . It started like this ...
" Hey you . Not you , the hot doctor " House said to the nurse that was talking with Scarlet . " I need a ride home , I borrowed my car to Wilson "
" The mafia car ? It's so badass . " Scarlet said bye to the nurse and turned to House
" So ... Where's my ride ? "
" I am going . Let me grab the keys "
" Ok " And he started to beat the floor with his cane . They got into their apartment and he invited himself inside hers
" Nice . I liked the red shade in here . 1 room ? "
"Yes . I am only one person . And red is the best colour ever . " She laughed
" Yes . The blood is red . It's necessary to live . Do you play ? " He pointed to her cello
" Yep . I love the cello and harp . But it's too angelic for me so I prefer the cello "
" I pley some instruments too "
" Hello my dear " Said Scarlet with a baby voice " House , this is Gato . Gato , this is House " She held the cat like it was a baby
" What's his breed ? " House asked " he is too furry "
" He is a Persian . And a rare one . It's hard to find a white one with those blue eyes . They are expensive " The cat looked like a fur ball and had a calm personality
" He is looking at me like he is superior " House made a face to the cat
" He never would do that . The only bad thing he did here was impregnat the neighbor's cat . And don't make faces at him , he will scratch you " It was to late . The cat scratched his face
" Shit . This is a monster from hell ! " House screamed " it's better be vacinated "
" Bad baby . Calm down I will fix your face " She said walking back with her first aid kit.
" Baby...This is not a baby , it's a monster . " He said touching the bloodied scratch
" It's just a scratch . I am a doctor , I know that you will get troght this alive " She sat besides him and waited " what ? Are you not going to bleed to death ? Let me fix it "
" Okay " he was looking right into her eyes . " Don't kill me "
" I would have done it by now if I wanted" She started to clean the wound and put a band aid . " Ready to go . Now you need to have a good drink with me to make peace "
" I get to choose the peace offer . I want to hear you play the cello "
"Alright " She positioned herself next to the instrument and played a beatiful piece . House was listening intently to the piece " The end " Scarlet ended the song
" How did you learnt to play ? "
" My parents made me choose between playing an instrument and having to wash the dishes . They wanted the piano , but I choose the cello . I love the piano too , but I never learnt to play it "
" I have a piano "
" Do you play ?"
" No . I just have it because it's good for the decoration " House rolled his eyes " Yes . I play "
" I need to hear you play . "
" Maybe you will someday "
" Wanna watch a movie ? "
" Which movie ? "
" Gone With the Wind "
" A classic . Vivien Leigh is hot "
" Why do you think that my name is Scarlet ? Because Scarlet O'Hara had blue eyes and black hair , my parents loved this movie "
" You two are hot " She blushed at his comment like always " Why are you always blushing ?"
" Because I am not only hot , I am cute too "
" As cute as your cat "
" Hey . He is cute ! "
" The scratch on my face tells me otherwise "
" Whatever . Let's watch the movie or talk about my cat ? " She put the movie on and Gato came to her lap
" Keep this thing away " House sat in the other side of the couch .
" Look how soft is his fur . Yes . He is a nice baby " Scarlet went after him and put the cat is his lap " just pat his head and he will love you"
" He is a little cuter than before " Scarlet smiled at this statement and they started to watch the movie . Part one ended and they said goodnight to each other
" Next time we are going to have some popcorn . I don't have food here " Scarlet smiled in a shy way that made House's cold heart almost think that she was cute
" I live here for more than 9 years and I still don't have food " House grinned like always and she laughed
" Bye . Count kitties to sleep better "
" Nighty night . I gonna have a nightmare if I do it "
The other day at the hospital...
" What happened to your face ? " Chase asked house
" A demon that lives next door did this " House looked at Scarlet
" He is not a demon . You annoyed Gato , he was trying to defend himself . He is cute kitty "
" Your cat did this ? " Foreman laughed " Sometimes I wish to do that to House too . I understand your cat "
" Haha . I gotta go to the clinic . Bye " House said walking
" There's something wrong . He is willing to do clinic duty ... " Forem commented
" There's a baseball game right now on TV . Why do you think that he is so excited about doing clinic duty ? " Scarlet replied " I wanted to watch this game " She frowned at the thought of losing the game
" You like baseball ? I thought that you liked rainbows and butterflies " Foreman told the girl
" They are cool . But there are other cooler things like basebol , football , car races ..."
" I agree " Said Chase .
The team was called to the office , they got a new case .
" You made the guy have a stroke ? " Scarlet asked wide eyed
" He spilled urine all over me " House said
" This is what happens when you don't use your coat " Said Cuddy
" You should wear one too . But that would hide and amazing view of your .. " House couldn't complete the comment because Cuddy left the room " One of us shouldn't wear it too because some guys would be more than happy to see hers too " He pointed to Scarlet
" A guy had a stroke because of you and you are thinking about their breasts " Wilson rolled his eyes " Unbelievable "
" Symptoms? " House asked and the team started working on the guys case . They couldn't find anything that matched with his symptoms .
Scarlet and the rest of the team was going to their patient's room when they saw the woman that was with him with her hands around his neck . Later that day they where commenting about the scene they saw . Chase knew a lot about BDSM because one of his ex girlfriends liked that .
" I think that it's weird " Scared commented " I have nothing against that but if a guy wanted to do that with me I would run for the hills "
" It's sick " Foreman said
" He is sick " House said " And his family won't let me cure him because they think that their son is a freak "
" Family . You wouldn't exist without them , but they make you want stop existing " Scarlet commented
" Looks like you don't have the happy cute family " House commented
" Anyway . The guy likes to be strangled like a chicken . I think it's weird but that doesn't make him less human or deserving of his parent's love " Scarlet commented " They are two selfish idiots .
" I agree . But now we have to take care of the guy and debate it later "
" Chase . I want you at his apartment looking for answers that he won't give us "
" He won't give us any answer . The guy can barely talk " Scarlet commented , Foreman and Chase laughed at that
" You are going with Chase Ms Martin " House told the young doctor
" Cool . It's the first time that I break into somebody's house " Scarlet said excited and the team looked at her like she was getting crazy
" See . You guys should get happy like this to break into somebody's place " House patted her head " Good pet "
" She is crazy , we aren't " Foreman said " You could hear her laugh at the clinic when she had a patient who got stuck in a oven " Scarlet laughed a lot
" He got his penis go tied in in oven when he was cooking while he was high " She laughed a lot and continued " He came here with a curtain over him and the oven " Chase laughed .
" You are crazy " Foreman told the girl
" I've never stuck my penis in a oven "
" You don't have a penis " Chase told the girl
" That's why I never did that " She grabbed her things and told Chase to go with her to the patient's house
" Do you think that we're going to find some kink stuff ? " Scarlet asked Chase while he was driving
" Maybe "
" Do you know what they are for ? Since you know a little about that ..."
" Yes " When Chase answered that Scarlet laughed a lot .
" Okay Marquis de Sade " Chase only rolled his eyes .
" Are you high ? "
" I'm always high and I've never got drugged "
" You have a goo sense of humor , you are gorgeous , smart ... Why don't you have a boyfriend "
" I like older guys "
" How much older are you talking about ? Wanna date my grandpa ?"
" Haha . No . At least 10 years older than me and I would date your father , not your grandfather "
They got into the patient's apartment in poor part of the city .
" Look at this " Scarlet told Chase " Do you know what to do with this "
"This is sick " Chase found some mints and stole some
" You're stealing it "
" No . He has enough . Want some? "
" Sure "
" I think that he is addicted to it "
" No . He wants to have a good breath "
" Yes "
" Hell yeah! " Scarlet exclaimed
" What the hell ?!" Chase asked puzzled
" We need to go to the hospital . Now . I've got and idea "
They got back to PPTH and got all the team in the patient's room.
" He was using mints " Scarlet said as a matter of fact
" Then ... This can't be dangerous to his health unless he is allergic to it . But we already know that he isn't " Foreman told the girl
" He is using a large amount of mints to cover up bad breath " House to them . " You . Smell his mouth " He pointed to Chase who told them that his breath smelled like old vomit
"fulminating osteomyelitis " Scarlet said
" That's right my pet . It's an infection of the jaw, likely resulting from the original break not healing properly. Pieces of infected tissue kept breaking off, impeding blood flow to the brain. " House told them before inserting a syringe in his jaw extracting a yellowish liquid " We have pus "
