Chapter Eight: Disputes

Princeton Plainsboro Hospital, New Jersey

Dr. James Wilson grabbed the things he needed from his desk and quickly glanced outside the window. The opening of the door startled him.

"Wilson, why are you staring out the window and not evacuating?" exclaimed Cameron.

"Sorry," he said. "I was just coming now."

Cameron held the door open as he hurried out of his office. He looked at Chase and then back at Cameron. "Where are Cuddy and House?"

"We'd thought you would know!" exclaimed Cameron above the many screaming voices.

"Have you see Foreman or any of House's staff?" questioned Chase.

"No, not at all today," replied Wilson.

Cameron sighed. "We'll never find them in this mess."

"What about Cuddy's office or House's office?" asked Wilson. "That's where they would normally be."

"We've already checked," said Cameron. "They weren't there."

Wilson stared at them in disbelief. They were always there and now in a time of emergency they decided to be somewhere else? "They've got to be near to us. They've probably been looking for us, wondering where we are."

At the mention of that Cuddy, House, and the team appear at their side. "We were looking for you!" exclaimed Cuddy. "Next time, stay where you are so we can find you!"

Wilson shook his head and then looked at House in his wheelchair. Trying hard not to laugh he said, "Nice, House. Now you have people serving your every need."

"It was Thirteen's idea," said House.

"Yeah, I was the only one who decided to help him," Thirteen said, with a quick glance at Cuddy.

"I think she has a crush on me, just like Cameron did," said House.

Cameron's face turned slightly red. "That was a long time ago. I'm with Chase now."

"Three years actually," House corrected her. "It wasn't that long ago."

"Are we going to stand here and talk about House's old staff members, or are we going to leave?" questioned Taub.

"What do you mean, leave?" asked Cameron.

"Leave the state of New Jersey," explained Cuddy. "We can't stay here."

"Well, I can't leave," said Cameron.

Wilson stared at her in surprise. There was a hurricane coming and she didn't want to leave? But he knew Cameron. She would stay back to help the patients of the hospital, even if that meant risking her life.

"You can stay back if you want," said Cuddy. "I'm sure Thirteen here wouldn't mind staying with you either."

Thirteen gave Cuddy a hostile glance. Before she could begin to argue with Cuddy, Chase stepped forward. "Cameron, you can't stay. I know your heart lies here at the hospital and you will do anything to help these patients, but staying here will lead you into nothing but misery." Cameron lowered her head.

Chase continued. "Cameron, you can't save everybody. Some people are meant to die here in this storm, and others will make it through. There are too many patients to save and it will be impossible to handle on your own. Help is already coming, so there will be people out there helping the patients."

"I know," whispered Cameron. "I just want to be that 'someone' who could help."

Wilson watched as Chase put his arm around Cameron. "You've helped enough," Chase reassured her. "The best thing you could do now is help save yourself."

"Well, let's get going then!" exclaimed Wilson.

"Let's get going where exactly?" asked Taub.

"The airport would be a good place to start," Kutner pointed out.

"Nnnooo," Taub exaggerated.

Kutner shook his head.

"Let's just get to the airport first and then decided on where to go," Wilson suggested.

Cuddy nodded to show her agreement. She turned to Thirteen. "Do you still want to stay here?"

Wilson waited for her reply. He expected for her to answer with something like, "I'll stay here any day than come with you," or, "Of course I'm going to stay here, idiot! What did you think I was going to do?" Instead, she answered, "You've convinced me. I'll come with you to the airport, but I'm not heading for the same destination as you." He noticed that she was talking directly to Cuddy. He speculated on what had made Thirteen hate her so much. He would have thought she would be bickering with House more than Cuddy.

Cuddy pushed the rain sodden hair out of her face. Wilson thought she was about to pick a fight with Thirteen, but instead she said, "What are we going to do about transportation?"

"We could take a cab," Chase suggested.

"What about our own cars?" Kutner asked.

"We can't take a cab with the floods!" exclaimed Thirteen. "And with this weather, it would be a dangerous idea."

"Do we have much of a choice?" Cuddy questioned her.

"Hey, we can either stay here to die, or we can take a cab in the floods, hoping that we don't drown," House suggested.

Wilson, Foreman, and Taub watched the five of them argue over what they were going to do. "Do you want to suggest something, or should I?" he asked Taub.

"I wouldn't even bother," replied Taub. "Then you'll be involved in the argument."

Foreman laughed. "I think it's just funny to watch them fight over something so stupid."

Cameron was the only one who hadn't said anything. She shook her head. "People, are we going to argue over this and get nowhere?" She pushed her way into the middle of the group. "We'll take a cab and risk the chances of drowning."

Kutner was about to open his mouth to say something, but Cameron already knew what he was going to ask. "And to answer your question Kutner, it would be dumb to have everyone drive in their own car, since we're all parked in different areas. We'll go to the Newark International Airport, since it's the closest, and so that settles which airport we'll be going to." She turned to Cuddy and Thirteen. "And you two stop the arguing and start to consider each other's ideas. Cuddy, you're the boss of House and House is the boss of his team, so maybe you should just stop talking to Thirteen so she'll stop arguing with you."

"Cuddy, you can pick a fight with House any day," Cameron continued. "You're his boss anyway. But you should stay out of Thirteen's path, so she won't bother you. Can you at least do that?"

Cuddy nodded.

Besides him, Taub whispered, "She told her." Wilson knew Cuddy was shocked at Cameron's words. He, himself, was shocked at how she had just told off her boss. Normally, Cuddy would have said something back, but now, Wilson could tell she couldn't find the words to match what Cameron had said. He glanced at Thirteen, who had a look of satisfaction on her face.

Cameron wasn't done with her speech yet. Her next victim was Thirteen. "And I mean you too! You shouldn't even be smiling; House could get permission from Cuddy to fire you right now!"

Thirteen shook her head. "He wouldn't fire me. He would be as satisfied as I am right now because I just told off my boss."

"Yeah, when I was the one who really told the both of you off," Cameron scoffed. "I may have liked House, but I'll tell you he'll never fall in love with someone as insolent as you."

"Sounds like your describing House more than me," said Thirteen.

"You're worse than Amber," whispered Cameron. She turned to Wilson. "By the way, where is Amber? I thought you two were dating."

"And I should know where she is?" questioned Wilson.

"And by that he means they're over," said House. "Just by his tone I could tell. I knew they wouldn't last; Amber's an idiot anyway."

A weak voice joined the conversation. It was Cuddy's. "Let's get going. We don't have time to sit around and chat." She strolled off towards the entrance door; Cameron glanced at Wilson with an apologetic look. He didn't know why she looked at him like that, but he understood that she didn't mean to make Cuddy feel so bad. He nodded his head to her, trying to tell her that she had done the right thing.

Chase decided to make the phone call to get a few cabs to come and drive them to Newark International Airport. As they waited, Wilson thought about where Amber was. She didn't work at the hospital, so she wouldn't have been there. He could care less about where she was, he almost hoped she got stuck in the storm. He was sure that House and the others would agree with him.

But why did Cuddy and Thirteen hate each other so much? He thought. Now that everyone knew about the how they felt about each other, would the arguing just get worse? And would Cuddy back down from Thirteen and let her order Cuddy around? With the way that the argument had just occurred, it looked as if Cuddy was already allowing that to happen.

Yes, Wilson and Amber aren't dating. But this doesn't mean I've forgotten about Amber... Sorry if you liked the two together, and I didn't mind them together either, but I just decided not to have them dating in this story.

The doctors are finally making their way out of the hospital! Now the question is, will they be able to come to a decision of where to evacuate to? And will Cuddy and Thirteen manage to get along with each other?
