Alright everyone, I am so sorry this update took so long to come out. I had a horrible case of writer's block. I would like to thank; sweetgreuy, LittleDragonfly23, and aimz4housecam (LJ) for putting up with me and helping me brainstorm. You guys are the best! Love to you all! 2BlckBlt
From Part Three
"Good. Okay, no fancy clothes or the perfume you were only for weddings and other life altering occasions. I want this to be us. Minus your lab coat. That would so kill the mood."
"Then what are we doing?"
"An Italian restaurant with pasta and pizza to die for. And wonderful piano playing in the background."
It was later that evening and Cameron had changed out of her customary blouse, vest and lab coat, and had exchanged it for blue camisole and matching jewelry. She kept the black pants, threw on a long wool coat, and went to meet House out in the parking lot. She had thought about changing into a skirt but then remembered her bosses/date's instructions, combined with the fact that she would most likely be riding on his bike, and decided that the pants were the best choice.
House and Cameron had been on his bike for about 10 minutes, heading towards what Cameron presumed to be an Italian restaurant, when House took a sharp turn on to a side street which was clearly marked as a…school zone?
"House? What the hell are we doing at Plainsboro Christian High School?"
"What? You don't want to relive your high school years? Weren't you like a popular cheerleader or whatever?"
"I am a doctor House. I went to medical school. I didn't get an internship at the Mayo Clinic because I can spell out 'Go Team!'"
"Okay, so you were a science nerd, albeit a pretty one most likely. So was I. A science nerd that is, not so pretty though."
"Shut-up House. Now tell me what we are doing here."
"I want to play."
"Are you high?"
"On drugs? No, well, maybe. No more so than usual though."
"You are acting no better than you were this morning!"
"Oh, so you expected a total personality overhaul between nine and five?"
"Expected, no, hoped for, yes. Maybe even prayed for."
"You don't pray."
"Yeah, I know, I am a hypocrite, I use God to do my own bidding, I am a horrible person."
"You're right; you're a hypocrite and a horrible person."
"Thanks for that vote of confidence. And on that note I am leaving. Have a nice time reliving the best years of your life."
House found his way to Wilson's condo after Cameron left. He needed to talk to someone with some more experience with women. The fact that all his relationships ended in divorce didn't seem to dawn on House in that moment.
Wilson opened the door, unsurprised to find House standing there.
"You screwed up, didn't you?"
"What gave you that idea, the gorgeous girl on my arm?"
"More like the lack of."
"I do sarcasm, you do kindness and caring. Bad doctor, good doctor, remember?"
"Of course. The patients, my patients, whom you make cry on a regular basis, are a constant reminder."
"But why are you here. I mean other in the general, 'I was an ass' sense."
"I took Cameron to school and teased her about being a cheerleader."
"You took her to school? I don't follow…"
"I took her to Plainsboro Christian High School, I thought it would be an interesting way to spark conversation, you know about our pasts, all that stuff that chicks love. But I messed it up."
"I still don't see how teasing her about being a cheerleader would lead to her leaving. Was she a cheerleader by the way?"
"No. A science nerd. A pretty one I am guessing though. But I called her a hypocrite and a horrible person."
"That's a sure fire way keep a date going House."
"But I insult her everyday!"
"You were on a date House. That means you were supposed to tell her she looked beautiful, and is perfect the way she is. Notice I did not say 'insult her character' anywhere in that sentence.
"Of course, how could I forget my manners?"
"You know what House? You need to figure out why you self-destruct around women by yourself. I can't answer that one.
"You're right Wilson. This is a problem you can't possibly help me with."
House turned and left Wilson's condo, and without even hesitating he left on his bike for Cuddy's house. He Cameron is a woman, Cuddy is a woman, he hoped that she could shed some light on to his interactions with them.
