The Next day
"So," House said "tell me how did it go with Chase?"
"He was a bit of an ass," Cameron said "but I did just tell him I wouldn't marry him."
"I guess that can be a bummer," House said taking more vicodin "hmm need more of this pretty soon"
"How many prescriptions have you gone through this week?" Cameron asked with a grin. Normally the amount of Vicodin that House had the happier and less likely to kill people he was so the rest of the hospital figured the more vicodin the happier House would be.
"Two," House said "but it's what? Wednesday? I have had only two by now anyways."
"Ok" Cameron said "I have to pick Jay up today"
"He got a flight that fast?" House asked
"No he booked it a week ago" Cameron said "he needed a place to stay."
"Sounds like you have a me in your family" House said with a grin "actually no one can be that bad."
"He is like you" Cameron said "cause he wants to be different from his dad ,which therefore makes him an unfeeling bastard"
"Are you allowed to say that about your nephew?" House asked with a grin
"Well he is" Cameron said "but he is my nephew and one of the few things that keep me sane to be honest"
"Kinda ... like he is your kid?" House said
"How do you mean?" Cameron asked. The truth was she knew exactly what he had meant Jason was distant from both of his parents and grandparents yet he was pretty much dependant on her. Auntie Ally he had called her when he was younger and then when he got older she was simply Ally as he had dropped the aunt part as she was more a mother to him than his own.
"He is distant to his parents." House said "he is closer to you he probably lets you know him better than anyone"
"I guess" Cameron said "crap I am late I have to go and pick him up in an hour!" and turned to leave
"Wait up" House said limping after her "I wanna come with you"
"What?" Cameron said not believing what she had heard
"I wanna come with" House said "no general hospital today and plus he interests me."
1 hour and a half later
"He's late" Cameron said
"The plan was delayed" House said pointing up at the screen "he'll be here Cameron"
"I know." She said sticking her tongue out at him "I worry"
"I can think of another word for you" House said with a grin
"Here's the plane" she said ignoring him looking out of the window "I haven't seen him in 2 years"
"I doubt he would have changed that much" House said
"Then again" Cameron said nodding towards a young man in a wheelchair "maybe he has"
House was stunned as Cameron walked over to the young man, Cameron of course had the right to be surprised that her nephew was in a wheelchair but House had always in a way had a soft spot for ill and injured children especially like someone like Jason from what had had heard from Cameron they had a very similar childhood yet his parents had never let him get into a position where he was in a wheelchair.
"Hi" House said when he reached Jason "Gregory House your aunt's boss"
"Jay Cameron" Jason said extending his hand "I would get up but my jackass of a father threw me down a set of stairs and severed my spine around the C6 and C7 part of the back" House winced that meant that the young man would never really walk again hell he would be lucky if he would be able to get out of a wheelchair again.
"Ok," Cameron said "let's get you to the car"
"Shotgun" House and Jason said at the same time and Cameron grinned the two most cynical people she knew where in the same state it was going to be hell but she knew she would enjoy it.
"House" she said in a calm voice "you where in the front on the way here, Jay wasn't he's in the front"
"At least make it a better reason" Jason said with a grin "he limps, I can't walk I am more crippled there's your reason for anything"
