Chapter 3! It's a bit short, but I'll make up for it next time! Please review it and tell me how you think I'm doing! :)


Chapter Three - Cupid's Plan.

Wilson followed Cuddy into her office and shut the door behind him.

"Cuddy, we can't force House and Cameron together. I'm sure nature will take it's course...eventually."

"I know, but we can try. Look, we both know how they feel about each other, so we're just giving them a little push." said Cuddy, sitting down in her maroon chair behind the desk. Wilson sat down opposite.

"I'm a useless matchmaker!"

"How do you know you are?"

"I tried to get my neighbour together with my aunt. It went horribly wrong, and now they hate each other."

"Oooh. Ok, well...we'll think of something. Now, how can we get them to open up?"

"I'm sure Cameron will have no problem with that, but this is Greg House we're talking about. Y'know, the doctor who doesn't tell anyone anything, hides all emotion and avoids physical contact?"

"Yeah, yeah I know! But he's different when he's with Cameron."

"That's because they get on well, and he enjoys her company."

"So he doesn't enjoy your company?" asked Cuddy, raising one eyebrow. Wilson was becoming quite doubtful, and although he knew House liked Cameron, getting him to admit it was a different story.

"Well, yeah...but in a different way."

"It can't be that hard. I mean, if we can get them together somewhere for a long time, they might..." Cuddy paused, trying to think about what could happen.

"They might what?" smirked Wilson.

"Tell each other how they feel."

"Cuddy, this is House! He wouldn't tell a soul what was going on in that head of his. God knows what he really thinks."

"Well, I think it's worth a shot. So what should we do? Lock them in their office? Shut them in a closet?"

"No, that's a bit harsh. House would find a way out, one way or another." said Wilson rubbing his chin. He had a feeling that this wasn't going to go well, but like Cuddy said, it was worth a try.

"Maybe we could get them into a restaurant or something?"

"No, House would just get up and leave." Cuddy stood up and paced up and down. Maybe this was going to be harder than she thought. Just then, Wilson had a brainwave.

"Maybe, I could invite them both round to mine for dinner."

"Ok, keep going..."

"I wouldn't tell them that the other was coming, and then when they get there, I'll go out and lock the door from the outside. They won't be able to escape, and they'll have to talk to each other."

"That might just work. If there's food there, then they'll have to sit down and eat it. Spending the evening together might get them to talk about how they feel. Well, Cameron to talk about how she feels. I'm not sure about House."

"Ok, so I'll invite them round on Friday night. Maybe me and you could go out when they're having dinner?"

"Sound's good."

"Right, I better go and tell them." Wilson disappeared out the room, leaving Cuddy feeling quite pleased with herself.
