"I wasn't the only one who could have helped him, Foreman." House finally said. "That's what I have my little ducklings for.
"Well, me and Chase were working on paperwork for a patient with paralysis, and Cameron was working in the burn clinic. You knew all this."
"I didn't get any damn letter, Foreman."
"I told Cuddy to give it to you." Foreman replied.
"It doesn't matter!" House said. "You should have told me yourself, not left Cuddy to do it for you."
"I really don't consider this to be my fault."
"That still doesn't matter!" House said, getting angrier. "A patient is dead! You know how much shit this hospital is going to go through because of this, how much shit I'm going to go through because of this?! Once Cuddy finds out-"
"She already knows." Foreman interrupted.
"Where is she?" House asked, surprised.
"She's in her office." Foreman said, turning his chair around. House was stunned that Foreman thought he could do that.
House got up and started walking out of the room. He turned around at the door frame. "Foreman, you can turn in your hospital ID at the front office. You're fired."
NURSE'S WING, AFTER FOREMAN'S ANNOUNCEMENT:
Cameron found herself sitting on a cot in an empty room, in the nurse's wing. She wanted to be away from Chase, Foreman, and House. She looked at her hands, they were shaking.
Cameron looked up at the closed door when she heard foot steps.
Shit! Cameron tried to hide under the quilt on the cot and pretend she was sleeping, but she knew Chase had already seen her.
She tried to close her eyes, but she had already heard the door close, and Chase come in.
Chase walked over to the bed and sat down at the end of it. Cameron sighed and sat up.
Cameron was somewhat shocked to see that Chase wasn't mad, he was just sad.
"So you like him?" Chase asked quietly.
"It was just a ride home, Cha-"
"So you like him?" Chase said again, more like an accusation.
"I don't know." Cameron laid back down. "Why do you even care Chase?" She said while she lifted her head. Chase was silent. She sat completely up again. "I mean, you get sex no matter what because of our deal, so why do you care if I like House? Not saying I do, but it shouldn't even matter to you. There's no sense in-"
"Because I love you Cameron." Chase finally spat out. Cameron body froze.
"So that's why you gave House daggers." Cameron said, looking down in disbelief.
"Yea." Chase finally replied. Cameron looked up and saw him eyeing her. Chase slowly put his lips to hers. She pulled him closer and Chase started to kiss her neck. She bent her head back to give him more excess to her body.
Chase lade her back on the bed and climbed over her. He quickly unbuttoned her shirt and felt his way over her breasts. Cameron looked at the ceiling while he started to undo his pants, and something hit her. This is totally pointless. She thought to herself. I don't love Chase. So why am I here? She sat up and pushed Chase off her.
"Sorry." Cameron got up and walked out of the room, leaving Chase there to zip his pants back up.
THE MAIN HALLWAY, GOING UP TO THE DIAGNOSTICS ROOM AND HOUSE'S OFFICE:
Cameron was walking down the hall when she saw House. Immediately his eyes widened and Cameron became confused.
"Nice look, Cameron!" House said to her.
"What?"
"Look down." Cameron did as she was told to find that her shirt was still unbuttoned and her bra was showing for all to see. She looked up. Oh Shit. House, and many other people in the hall and in rooms with see through glass walls were staring at her, including Foreman, Wilson, and Cuddy. Cameron went running into the bathroom and opened the door. "I can help you get the rest off if you want!" House called to her.
Cameron looked back and gave House a very pleasant middle finger.
IN THE WOMEN'S BATHROOM
Cuddy walked into the women's bathroom right after Cameron. Noticing no one else was in their besides them two, she decided to just speak.
"That was some sight Allison." She finally said with a laugh.
"Shut up." Cameron said, into the mirror.
"Oh, come on, it was funny!" Cuddy replied.
"No!" Cameron turned to her. "No, Cuddy it wasn't funny! Every nurse, doctor, surgeon, and any other person saw me with my shirt open, displaying my red lace bra!"
"It's a cute bra?" Cuddy said, trying to make Cameron feel better.
"You know what people are going to say about me now? They're going to call me a whore, a slut, a -"
"I don't think there are any other ways to say it." Cuddy said.
"They're all going to think of me differently now. All the men are going to have their wicked fantasies of how I even ended up with my shirt practically off." Cameron sneered and crossed her arms over her, now clothed, chest.
"Let them dream, Cameron." Cuddy finally said.
"Yea, I guess." Cameron flashed Cuddy a smile and walked over to the door. She put her fingers on the handle and gripped it, ready to open it when Cuddy said something.
"Why was your shirt like that anyway?" Cameron froze again.
Cameron spun around and took a deep breath. "Me and Chase were fooling around in the nurse's room and I guess I forgot to cover up after."
Cuddy eyes widened. "First House, and now Chase? You know its against hospital regulations to do anything with a co worker on hospital grounds?"
"How did you even know about me and House?"
"Foreman." Cuddy replied.
"Should have guessed." Cameron said. "You know Chase told me that he loves me."
"Is that good?" Cuddy asked.
"No." Cameron replied.
"Why?"
"Personal reasons." Cameron said.
"You can tell me." Cuddy said. "I won't say a word."
"You're acting like we're in high school." Cameron said with a giggle.
Cuddy smiled. "I wish." Cameron smiled like she agreed and finally gave in.
"Okay fine. Me and Chase had this friends with benefits thing-"
"Knew that." Cuddy said. Cameron gave her a surprised look. "Sorry, keep going."
"Well he heard House gave me a ride home, and Foreman blew it way out of proportion and I asked Chase why he even cared and that's when he told me he loved me." Cameron said, all in one breath, like if she took too long all the nurses and doctors would randomly appear out of the stalls and scream "SURPRISE!"
"So you like�" Cuddy tried.
"I don't know, Cuddy! That's the problem! I know I don't like Chase, and I don't think I like House." Cameron shifted nervously on her heels.
"Any other men on the horizon?" Cuddy asked.
"Nah." Cameron looked down.
"Okay." Cuddy said. "Do you need a hug?" Cuddy offered with a slight laugh.
"Sure." Cameron replied hesitatly. They hugged for a few seconds and released.
"See ya." Cameron said with a smile and walked out of the bathroom. Cuddy looked in the mirror to fix her hair and then left too.
DIAGNOSTICS ROOM:
Cameron walked in the diagnostics room, knowing what would come up next. She sat down in her seat and tried not to look at House, Foreman, or Chase who had just arrived a few seconds before her.
House looked at Cameron, then Chase. House was standing next to the white board and it had many medical terms scattered across it.
"So what's the new case?" Cameron said hesitatly.
"15 year old girl with carple tunnel syndrom." Foreman replied, looking down, trying not to smile.
"If we know what she has why are we here?" Chase asked.
"A new symptom has popped out." House replied. A silence. "Kind of like Cameron's boobs." He cough-said quietly. Foreman lauged but then stopped. House was just wearing his stupid, ha-ha smile.
Cameron's flesh hardened. She could feel Chase's eyes burning a hole through her. She kept her head down, pretending to be over interested in her nails.
Just then, Cuddy walked in in a hurry. "House, we need you in the ER, quick!" She said and then ran down the hallway.
House grabbed his cane and stood up. "Looks like someone's dying."
"What are we supposed to do?" Cameron asked.
"You're my ducklings, figure it out." House said as he walked through the door.
He left Cameron there to have two sets eyes burning holes through her.
