A/N: Hi, So I would like to say some things that I didn't say before. I didn't mention in the beginning that this is my first story but it is. And this whole uploading things and posting it, I haven't done that before either so this is still all, a little confusing and new to me, but I'm learning. I'm not really a computer person and I probably never will be, and I am aware that the first chapter is underlined, I don't know why and I don't know how to fix it. I hope it doesn't bother anybody. I would also like to point out that English isn't my first language or even second language for that matter. So I might make some mistakes, but I'm open to constructive criticism, and I would like to thank the people that have already reviewed. I love you guys, Seriously J

I don't own House M.D, but I love it though.

Thanks for your time.

Chase couldn't sleep that night. His whole life was changing so drastically in such a short time. After tossing and turning for several hours he finally got up to get some water. When he walked into the living room, he found Ruby sitting upright, with several lamps on, in the chair next to the sofa, reading a magazine.

"Couldn't sleep either ha?", he asked. Ruby jumped at the sudden noise. Her magazine fell out of her lap, and on to the floor.

"No", she answered shortly.

"Yeah, a lot's been going on lately" Chase stroke his hair back and, looked at the kitchen, then back at Ruby, and after a while decided to skip the water, and sat down on the end of the sofa, closest to Ruby.

"Why are you sitting over there", he asked.

"Cause if I read in the sofa, I won't be able to sleep there", Ruby answered. Chase raised his eyebrow.

"What!, it's true, if I read at a place I'm supposed to sleep, my sleeping place becomes my reading place and I can't sleep there, that's how it works" Chase turned away to hide his smile.

"But if you're not sleeping here, then why does it matter where you read"

"I might sleep there later and I don't wanna ruin it for me by making it my reading place" This time Chase couldn't hide his grin. Ruby grabbed the closest pillow and threw it at him.

"Stop it! I'm being serious!", Ruby shouted. Then they both silenced, and looked at each other. And just a few seconds later they were both laughing. Ruby didn't think it was that funny, but Chases laughter was very contagious. They stayed up all night watching bad movies and talking about everything and nothing just like when Ruby was little.

The next day Ruby followed Chase to work. Liz wasn't feeling so good, and was gonna stay in bed all day, but she didn't want Ruby to just lay around doing nothing all day so she suggested to Chase, to take her with him. Cameron was standing just a few feet away from them when they walked in. Walking in side by side, their similarities were almost frightening to her. This was the first time she saw Ruby since finding out she was Chases daughter.

"Hi Ruby", she said, when they approached her. Ruby gave her a vague smile as a response. Chase put a hand on Ruby's shoulder and said:

"How about you wait for me in the cafeteria, I have to talk to doctor Cameron in private"

"And where's that"

"Nurse will you show my cousin the way to the cafeteria" The nurse behind the counter nodded, and gestured with her hand, at Ruby, to follow her. Cameron frowned when hearing chase call Ruby his "cousin".

"I was gonna call you yesterday, but I thought you would be busy, you and Ruby have a lot of precious father-daughter-bounding time to catch up to" Chase took Cameron to the side.

"Please don't do this you know this is the least I can do for her now, after aunt Liz dies she has nobody else" Cameron had no response to that. He was telling the truth. Except for her "mother" Chase was all Ruby had in the world. But Cameron didn't mind the fact that Ruby was moving in with Chase. Well at first she didn't. But that was when she still thought Ruby was his cousin. Now finding out she was his daughter had somehow changed everything. Especially since she had to tip toe around it when she was with Ruby. So she wouldn't accidentally tell her the truth.

"I know", Cameron finally answered Chase.
