THANK YOU ALL FOR THE WONDERFUL REVIEWS…IM SO PLEASED THAT YOU GUYS LIKE MY STORY…


The night before, Cuddy rushed home and put Rachel to bed. She got the papers out of her bag and got the board from the dresser.

"Okay…Now what?" she asked herself.

She set the "T" on the number 1 spot and decided to glue the sentence onto a sheet of paper so that she wouldn't lose it. She sat, and thought, and sat and she realized that she had no idea what it meant. She shrugged it off, got up, checked Rachel, and went to bed.


Back at PPTH, House had got in earlier than usual. He limped as quickly as he could to Cuddy's office to place the second rose. Instead of the light yellow rose he put in the office yesterday, he had gotten a very bright yellow, almost golden rose, and set it down on her desk. He left the small envelope under it and left the room.


Cuddy arrived approximately 5 minutes after House left her office. This time, instead of hanging her coat on the rack first, she went straight to her desk. She saw the rose and picked up the small envelope. Inside were 2 papers, one with the letter "A" printed on it, and on the back, there was the number "5". Cuddy guessed that it went on the fifth spot on the board. She looked at the next piece of paper and read the sentence aloud.

"YOU GOT ME GOING CRAZY."

Once again, there was nothing on the back. She stuffed it in her purse and returned to her morning routine. She turned on her computer and checked her email. She had the normal emails and of course one complaint email.

"Hmmm. I wonder who that is about." She said to herself sarcastically. She opened it and it read:

"Dr. Cuddy, I would very much like to ask you, if it isn't that big of a deal, to PLEASE, please control Dr. House. He walked into the clinic in the early afternoon hours yesterday and started well, what House usually does. Please, all I'm saying is that you please give him something to do, that doesn't have to do with us, here at the clinic. Thank you."

Okay that's it. She got up and headed to House's office, her heels clicking rapidly behind her.


When she walked in his office, all he found was his empty chair, and his iPod. She picked the iPod up and looked at what he was listening to. "Quizas" by Desi Arnaz.

She started it again and sat in his chair and began listening to it. It was a very beautiful song.

"Ahem." She heard House's voice coming from above and she took off the earphones. "What is it you please, Cuddles?"

She frowned, "Would you please stop calling me that? Well, that can wait. What exactly did you do yesterday in the clinic?" She raised an eyebrow.

"Nothing out of the ordinary mommy." He grinned mischievously. She just sighed. "Why were you on my iPod anyways?"

"Oh, that? Um… no specific reason, just curiosity I guess." She smiled and realized that since she reached out to give him back his iPod, they had grown very close together. Even closer than the last time. Her breath hitched. Suddenly, he reached out and pushed a strand of hair, that had been messed up from the earphones, from her face. Her face began to turn as red as a tomato.

"So did you get another rose or was it just a one time thing?"

"What? Oh um yeah."

"Any idea who its from?"

"I think it might be from Lucas, but im not sure."

She felt him tense up. "Yeah, who knows." He said with a twinge of anger in his voice.

"Well, I should be going. Oh and by the way, that's a nice song that you have on your iPod." She smiled again. "I love the way he sings, and I also love 'I Love Lucy'." She winked and walked away. She adored those moments where she and House were actual human beings with each other.

"Good to know…" he said and smiled to himself.
