Yay second chapter! A little OOC for House (kinda has to be, or Huddy might never happen!) R&R!
Disclaimer: It's all David Shore dammit.
"House!" House jumped again. He seemed to be doing that a lot today.
"Oh, hi evil ruler of the master behind," he said in a bored voice, fighting to regain his composure.
"Hm," Cuddy said, ignoring him as she placed a folder in his hand.
House looked down. "What's this?"
"Clinic duty hours. And patient forms." House's eyes widened.
"I already did my clinic duty." he said uninterestedly, handing the folder back to her.
Cuddy placed her hands on her hips, and House squirmed. Lord, that was sexy.
No. It wasn't. She does that all the time. Why should I care now?
Because you like her.
I DO NOT like her!
You sooo do.
Oh my god, I sound like a bloody teenager.
A bloody teenager in love.
A bloody schizophrenic teenager in love. House rolled his eyes.
"And -- don't roll your eyes at me!" Snapping himself back to reality, he found Cuddy glaring down at him. The usual.
House opened his mouth to say something, but for the love of him couldn't think of a decent response. What's wrong with me?!
"Gregory?" House was forced to roll his eyes again.
He turned back to Cuddy, "Well, gotta go, one of my loyal minions is calling me." he said as Cameron walked up. Cuddy bristled, though she tried her best to hide it.
"Gregory?" she asked Cameron cooly. Cameron gave her an odd look before opening her mouth to speak.
"I believe since we're co-workers-"
"-Actually I'm your boss-"
"-we might as well call each other by our real names since last names are so formal," Cameron continued all in one breath, ignoring House. "Is it a problem?"
"Not at all," Cuddy said simply. Stay calm... "Here, make sure House does his Clinic duty." she addded, relieved as Chase arrived as well.
"Sure thing," Chase said.
"Mommy, when are you coming back home?" asked House as Cuddy turned to leave. Cuddy sighed, and House grinned. He was back.
"House, do your Clinic duty." She walked away.
"Niiice," House breathed as she left. Chase looked at him.
"What?"
"She noticed my wheelchair."
"...Did she say something?"
"No." House said, the grin on his face widening. "But she just knocked over three nurses and an IV tube."
Next chapters more in character, I think. Review!
