Thanks very very much all for the reviews!! You're all awesome and I apologize for reducing some of you to whiney 5-tear-old, was not my intension. Well almost not ;-) This chapter is more harmess and Huddy 3
My heart almost did a leap out of my body, it was pounding so hard as the three of us just stared at each other.
It felt like a whole lifetime had passed by when he finally moved to my side of the car, unlocking all the doors in the car as he reached my side.
"You can make this easy, Lisa-love," his voice was sleazy and cold making the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.
With the indication of choice it was like my body finally made peace with my head and decided on survival. I lunged forward and opened the door so it slammed open in the guy's face with a dump sound and he disappeared out of view.
I closed the door again and sat back, breathing hard.
"Wow Cuddles. Remind me never to stalk you."
Just then the Police car appeared behind us and the second it took me to look behind us, the guy was gone. Vanished into the darkness. I sunk back as relief flooded me and I felt tears press in the corners of my eyes. I Looked at House who was looking into the darkness in front of us with a murderous look.
"House?" I croaked out and he finally turned to me, his looked softening immediately.
"We're ok." He said and I felt myself relax, muscled I hadn't noticed were flexed so hard I knew they'd ache in the morning finally were let go as I more or less flung myself at him and buried my face in the safety of his neck and arms.
He hugged me to him and for once he returned the hug as desperately as me while mumbling we were okay. We both jumped as the Police knocked on the door.
"Please step out of the car." We looked at him and the sight of the two of us softened his look. "You called about a break in?" I nodded. I didn't have the focus to form sentences right now. Administrator be damned, for once I was just a normal person who was freaked out and scared. He nodded.
"You saw anyone?"
"Yes the fucking idiot was playing cat and mouse with us." The Police officer nodded seemingly not offended by House's language most probably used it.
"Stay in the car. I'll go look and call for back-up." We did as told.
"What the fuck is that sick bastard thinking?" House mumbled as he rested his head on top of mine, staring out into the darkness again. I looked up and I felt the usual guilt taking over; I dragged him into this and now he was being chased as well as I was by some psychopath who seemed limitless in his attempts to get what he wanted.
"I can feel your guilt, Cuddles." He smiled and looked down at me, something about his joke made me smile.
"I-" He cut me off with a kiss.
"We're in this together so stop it." I nodded and gave in resting my head against his chest waiting for the Police to sort out this mess.
~~o.O.o~~
Sorting out mess turned out to be a long process ending with us finally coming home to House's apartment around 3 in the morning with a shiny red panic button and feeling like life had been slowly dragged out of us over the last 4 hours we'd spent telling various police officers what had happened, what Thomas looked like, that we didn't know him and the list of things to say only seemed to grow longer the more questions we answered. But in the end the Chief had arrived looking pale and angry and had sent us home in a police car with the instructions that should anything at all happen we shouldn't hesitate to call or press the panic button.
"I'm hungry," House said as he flopped down on the couch as I was securing the chain on his door. It wasn't till the mention of food my stomach growled reminding me it was a good 10 hours since I last ate.
"Me, too." I said and started to head for the kitchen.
"You'll be really disappointed." He said, his voice gruff with exhaustion. "But I can use a beer." I opened the fridge and peered inside. There were beers and some container I wasn't sure I wanted to even go near. I grabbed a beer and put it on the table before I started going through the other cabinets till I ended up with some rice, some canned tomatoes and some onion.
Putting the water on and starting to cut he opinions I occupied my mind with the trivial task of cooking rather than that Thomas was still out there and most likely even more angry than he had been before.
I jumped as House's hand slid over my hips and he stepped up behind me. I took a second to lean back and enjoy the nearness of him before I kept cutting the opinion and putting them on a pan and then adding the tomatoes.
"You have any garlic?"
"I don't know." He answered simply before he gave my neck a soft kiss. "It doesn't matter. I'm so hungry I could eat anything." I smiled vaguely. He stood behind me as I cooked us the meal and then we sat on the couch next to each other as we wolfed the food down so fast it almost burnt the roof of our mouths off.
"That was kinda nice." House said putting the plate on the coffee table. I grabbed it and was about to put it back in the kitchen when he grabbed my hand. "Leave it. It's been a long day, let's go to bed." I nodded.
"I'm just gonna take a quick shower, ok?" I couldn't help the feeling of being dirty after Thomas looking at me and I wanted it off before I went to bed.
"Okay."
Coming back into the bedroom he was sitting on the edge of it looking at me only clad in boxers. I walked over to him curious and almost wanton and he smiled up at me as I let the towel drop giving him full view of my naked body.
"There's my Cuddles." He pulled me to sit on his lap before he slid his big and strong arms around me and captured my lips in a possessive kiss. Returning the kiss with as much fever and possessiveness I was almost writing on top of him. I had never in my life felt horny like this. I needed him as close as possible right now. I needed another human to verify life, not all the destruction and hate I'd seen tonight.
I bit his lip and then let my tongue sooth the bite, which made him grab my ass hard pulling me as close to him as I could come straddling his lap and with his growing erection pressing against him thigh. I started rubbing self on it electing several moans from him and a hand down my front seeking out my folds. I was ready for him.
"I need you now…" I almost begged and for once he didn't take the time to mock me or tease me but flipped us over before standing and removing his boxers letting his impressive little House spring free into the cool air of the bedroom.
He bent down with a smile playing on his lips as he kissed my calf and slowly started kissing his way up inner thigh. I gasped, I was so sensitive and on edge with no patience for games.
"House…" he looked up as he reached my hip.
"Yes Cuddy?" I begged him with my eyes not able to say it and it seems he got the message as he lied down over me covering my smaller frame with his lanky one. I put my arms around his neck immediately and pulled him to me kissing him. I could feel him tease my entrance with his tip and I pushed up against him wanting nothing more than him inside me. He granted me my wish as he slipped in slowly allowing me to adjust to his impressive size. I groaned. I didn't have time for my body to adjust.
I raised my hips trying to create movement but House pushed me down with a gentle hand.
"Easy there...what's the matter with you?" The look he gave me made my heart melt; it was gentle and caring. Something I hadn't seen from him since college when I'd broken my arm and was trying not to cry. I shook my head at him. I didn't really know what was going on with me.
"I just…" The words were stuck and I felt myself getting frustrated and embarrassed so I looked away from him. I felt his lips on my neck, soft nipping kisses moving up to my ear.
"I love it when you can't have me fast enough." He breathed and then he started moving in slow long strokes, hitting every spot inside me just right and I moaned in response to him. I turned my head back to him and found him staring down at me intently with a trademark House "I'm-watching-you" look. But instead of sarcasm out of his mouth he kissed me slow and tender at first but then we both got more aggressive and as he picked up the pace of his hips I found myself just clinging on to him, my legs closed over his back and my arms around his neck till I felt the familiar rush as my orgasm broke and I pulled him with me over the edge.
We stayed wrapped in each other till we were cold, the sweat dried and our breathing back to normal before House finally broke the spell by lifting his head and looking down at me. He smiled a small smile before giving me a quick kiss as he got up.
I followed him and he gave me a smile as we finished our business out there before snuggling up in his bed. I was almost asleep when his voice broke the silence.
"What are you gonna do about your house?" I turned over in his arms.
"I'm gonna sell it when it's fixed again…" We looked at each other neither of us wanted to break the tension or say the wrong thing. Then he nodded.
"I'm beginning to wonder if you set all this up so you could move in with me." I couldn't help but smile; this was his way of saying I was welcome to stay. I closed the distance between our faces and kissed him.
"You know I'd be capable." He grinned.
"Yes, you are one hell of a cunning woman."
