Chapter Two:
"OK, new symptom. Theories." House stated as he walked up to the white board.
"It might be clogged arteries. If like that for to long they induce a reaction, All that blood can only have to come out somewhere." Chase replied leaning back casually.
"That's impossible, a woman does not formulate clogged arteries overnight." Cameron argued as she looked over the patient file." It could be food poisoning." Cameron replied throwing the file on the desk.
"Tried that...new theory." House replied pointing to foreman.
"Wait...we didn't try, that patient is showing all the possible side effects of botulism. The..the fever, the throwing up, stomach pains, it all fits." Cameron interrupted impatiently.
"No it fits because your trying to make it. Next!" House replied with a final answer sounding voice.
"It..it could be a tumor in her uterus. The tumor can explain all the symptoms." Foreman replied with a defeated sigh.
"Fine...I like that. Start testing her." House replied watching as both Foreman and Chase walked off leaving Cameron still sitting. "Yes?" House questioned the unmoving Cameron.
Cameron acknowledged him with a hardened expressing before standing up from her chair.
"Why won't you let me test her for the botulism?"
"Because it's a weak diagnosis." he replied annoyed sounding.
"No, no it's not! It explains everything that is happening to her." Cameron replied raising her voice slightly.
"I don't want to hear this right now." he replied turning and walking to wards his office.
"Why?" she replied confused.
"Because... "Days Of Our Lives" is on in 5." House replied sitting at his desk with his remote.
"Are you serious?" she replied in utter disbelief.
"I never joke about my soap hour, now move." House stated turning on the TV with the remote.
Cameron just sighed, she was ready to turn and walk away. But she knew she would just look defeated and for the patients sake she couldn't give up now. So she walked right up to the TV and sat on top of the TV, her legs blocking the TV screen.
House just sighed trying to see his soap through Cameron's legs, finally with a sight he turned of the TV and sat up.
"You know doing that is just childish." House stated annoyed.
"I'll stop being one when you do." she replied with a smirk.
House just rolled his eyes and sighed, he then walked out of his office and into the hall, with a determined Cameron tailing him.
"Come on House, one test. One test can't do any harm." Cameron replied running ahead of him until she was then blocking his way.
House stopped and looked at the determined Cameron as she set her jaw and placed both her hands on the hips. He knew he had no choice but to let her do her test. It was either do that or have no chance in hell to watch his soap.
"Fine, one test you have 2 hours to get the results." House replied with a sigh.
Cameron just unclenched and smiled brightly knowing she had succeeded. "Thank you." she replied before leaving House to walk to the lounge to continue his soap.

Meanwhile in Tammy's room she was finishing up answering the questions of both Dr.Foreman and Dr.Chase. They had previously just came back from doing x-rays and taking some blood. In the middle of answering questions she looked up to see another doctor walking in, she did not know his name but she did recognize him from when Dr.House and Dr.Cameron where in here.
"Um mm, sorry to interrupt but Cuddy needs you both in the clinic. There seems to have been a long list of patients to see from the outbreak at the gymnasium." Wilson replied walking in trying not to be disruptive..
"Um mm, OK well do you mind asking Ms.Renee a few..." Foreman stated before being interrupted by Tammy.
"No...please it's Tammy, i feel so old when you call me by my last name." she replied with a gentle smile.
"Well then do you mind asking Tammy a few questions while we go down there." Foreman asked handing Wilson the chart.
"Um mm, er..yeah...no problem." Wilson replied taking the chart.
"OK, Thanks." "Tammy don't worry Dr.Wilson is a very good doctor he'll take good care of you. Now take care." Foreman said pointing to Wilson.
"Um mm, yes thank you Dr.Foreman and Dr.Chase for everything." she smiled brightly.
The two doctors then nodded and said there goodbyes before then leaving to go to the crowded clinic. Tammy looked over and smiled at the handsome doctor Wilson. Wilson just smiled before sitting in a chair next to Tammy's bed.
"Well as they said I am Dr.James Wilson, but you can call me James if you want." He smiled as he took out a pen from his shirt pocket. "So how are you feeling?" Wilson asked pausing at a blank line.
"Well, I feel better but just a little stomach pain still is all." she replied as she began to sit up straight.
"OK." Wilson replied as he wrote in the blank space on the chart.
" So your a friend of Dr.House's?" she asked curiosity written across her young face.
"Yes, well please don't judge me by that alone." he joked looking through her charts.
Tammy smiled and laughed a beautiful airy smile that made James look up from her chart and back up to her smiling face. "No, please don't worry, I actually like Dr.House. He's a good Doctor, he's very truthful." she replied whilst trying to quiet her laughing.
"Yes, well sometimes he's a little too truthfully if you ask me." he replied now watching her and abandoning the chart.
"Yeah, I know what you mean. My dad was like that also you know, he was truthful to the point that sometimes he would insult everyone from my publicist to my fans. Once it got so bad that I had to give a woman free tickets to a show because he called her an annoying cow." she stated, before then laughing at Wilson's amused face and slight chuckle. "The worst thing was, that he was so right." she replied as she began to cease her laughing but her smile remained the same.
"You said that your dad was...like that..." Wilson stated a little confused.
"Yeah...he uh passed in his sleep last summer." she replied solemnly as she looked down at her hands, then back to Wilson's's face.
"I'm sorry..." Wilson replied but was stopped by Tammy's smile and shaking head.
"No, please...he was old...and it was just his time, trust me you didn't do anything." she replied with a comforting smile.
Wilson exhaled the breathe he was holding and just smiled back at the beautiful young girl in front of him.
"Well that's reassuring." he smiled before continuing. "So everyone from House, to the nurses, and the journalists downstairs tells me your a singer." he asked settling into the small wooden chair.
"Yeah well, I'm not very big now...but you never know." she smiled a slight blush on her white satiny skin, which made Wilson smirk slightly.
"Well, to be honest I haven't really heard of you. I mean...I'm not really into the new music now a days." he replied apologetically.
"Music now a days? Your not that old James." she replied with a slight smirk.
"Well, I wouldn't be so sure. I'll be 41 this September." he replied a bit embarrassed by his older age.
"That's not old at all." she stated in confusion.
"Well I am about 21 years your senior...so think how old I feel." he replied smiling as he sat up walking toward the door. "Thank you for the nice conversation Tammy, I really...really enjoyed it. Now take care and I'll see you later." he replied turning to leave, but halted when the smooth voice of the young girl came to his ears.
"Well lucky for you that I happen to like older men." replied Tammy with a small smile.
Wilson turned so his gaze was upon Tammy's face, he just smiled with a slight blush, waved then walked away from the room.
----------------------------------------------------------
Cameron was sitting in the lab with the left over blood from Tammy's last test on the lens under the microscope. Before she could even look at the blood she felt a familiar presence in the room. Turning she saw House standing at the door frame watching her intently, as if he was studying her, or trying to bisect her every thought or movement. Intrigued by this she turned back to the microscope but not before asking "House, what do you want?" while she pulled her hair back into a ponytail to keep from falling into her view.
"Well, soap hour is over so I decided to come down here to watch you look like an idiot when you realize that you were wrong." House replied limping toward her.
"Right, and it has nothing to do with the fact that you wanted to come down here because you wanted to see if you were wrong." she replied looking down into the microscope.
"Me... wrong...never!" House replied watching as Cameron adjusted the microscope lens.
It was several seconds later when Cameron had finally sat up from her hunched position over the microscope. She walked to the computer without looking at House, she then hit a few keys which then activated the printer. When done she handed the white sheet of paper to a curious House. House snatched the paper from her and Cameron watched as House's eyes scanned the paper.
"I was right, she's positive for botulism." she replied crossing her arms in front of her chest while she shined a triumphant smile.
House looked up in astonishment and embarrassment, he knew by the smile on her face and the test results in his hand. He had lost at the only game he knew, so defeated he looked back at Cameron and handed her back the sheet of paper.
"Start her on the drugs, tell Foreman and Chase what you found." House replied looking back down at his cane.
Cameron nodded and walked away, but before leaving she had stopped and turned to look back at House. "Everyone makes mistakes, just like how everyone lies." she replied then finally she walked out of the lab leaving a defeated House in the midst.
House watched her leave before finally smiling slightly, then he proceeded to leave out of the same entrance she had just left from.
