Screw Up

House couldn't decide rather to pick Cuddy up and carry her to the bedroom or what, something inside changed.

"Well." He asked?

"Well what" Cuddy whispered, still holding Houses jacket she let go and slowly backed away. "Well what House? What the Hell is going on?"

Confused and out of breath Cuddy started to back up until she'd fell on her couch. Without thinking House walked over and sat down. He'd wanted to say something kind, he knew she'd take it wrong, instead House did what he was suppose to do.

"Well are you going to get ready for dinner or shall we skip it and bag the babe, hit the bedroom for a midnight snack. How bout I take that robe off…."

Cuddy couldn't believe her ears "Bag the babe! What am I some kind of trophy for your enjoyment!" throwing a cushion at him, she tried to get up. House stopped her.

"Cuddy don't. I screwed up, I always screw up, I'm expected to screw up. Come on it's me Gregory House. Not your night in shinning armor or in your case a stud muffin, I'm a old washed out…."

"Stop, don't!" Cuddy grabbed Houses hand as she tried to released his grip on her. "Go House, please leave."

House looked at Cuddy before he could stop himself he'd grabbed her close to him whispering in her ear "Do you really want me to go? You know you want me, you've always have since….." He stopped and kissed her long and hard, slowly released his grip, got up and walked out the door.

Cuddy stood still in disbelieve, her heart raising "House wait! " was all she could muster up.
