Wilson's Room

Wilson had been calling House nonstop since he had woken but his best friend hadn't answered once. He hoped House hadn't gotten himself into a mess but knowing him like he did he was probably drunk out of his mind somewhere with Gina. He had tried knocking on his room door but no one had answered. Just as he was about to try his cell phone again he heard a knock at his door. He got up and opened the door.

-House, where the hell have you been hiding? I think I have called you over twenty times already!

-I was busy mom.. House said rolling his eyes.

-Come in.. House came in and went straight for the whiskey bottle Wilson had on his table.

-So what kept you so busy? Gina?

-No, I spent my day with a soul sucking witch..

-You didn't—you spent all this time with Cuddy? Wilson said with a shocked look on his face..

-Yep, House said taking a huge swig from his glass of whiskey

-Did you guys—you know

-Yeah we fucked all day—Guess her man can't satisfy her..She practically raped me.. House said with a dismissive tone

-So you guys are together? She dumped her boyfriend?

-No, House said taking another huge swig from his glass

-What do you mean no? You guys made love..

-Made love? Hahaahaha... You're such a pussy Wilson, House said laughing bitterly.. She was hot and she wanted a good fuck that's all.. That's all she ever wants from me.. I make her feel good but she doesn't want a relationship. I'm not good enough for her or her daughter according to her..

-She said that? I don't believe you—she loves you House..

-She doesn't love me! House slammed his glass on the table making it spill.. She loved the old House.. The one she met in Michigan.. The one before the infarction.. I'm broken and I always will be..

-I'm sure you haven't changed that much House and even if you have I know she still loves you.. She's confused, she's hurt and she's scared but you can't really blame her after what you did.. Give her time.. Show her that you are willing to be a better man for her..

-That's the thing Wilson; I don't think I can be..

Lisa's Suite

A few hours had passed since House had left her suite and she still couldn't get him out of her head. Rachel was sitting at the table waiting for her mom to serve her dinner.

-Mommy Mommy! I'm so hungry..

-I know baby..It's almost done.. Lisa was so busy thinking about House that she almost burned the vegetable stir fry that she was making for dinner.

-Here you go sweetie, eat up..Lisa said putting a little bowl full of the stir fry in front of Rachel.

-Thanks Mommy.. Mommy?

-Yes baby

-Is House okays?

-Oh baby..he's fine..Just has a booboo on his face..

-Can House come eat with us mommy? Pleasssssssssssssssssse

-Well House is resting right now..Maybe another day baby

-Okay mommy Rachel said with a disappointed pout.

-Eat your dinner sweetie..

-Mommy?

-Yes sweetie..

-I don'ts like Jivanni no more..He hurts House..

-Oh sweetie..He was just angry..He didn't mean to scare you..

-Don't like him no more.. House is better.. I loves House.. Mommy you loves House too?

Was her daughter trying to play match maker with her and House? Lisa smirked at the idea that House had charmed her daughter just as much as he had charmed her. The fact that House and Rachel had created a bond had really shocked her and she had fallen even more in love with him every time she saw how hard he tried to be a good friend to her little girl. She thought about all the times House had played with her daughter and made her laugh. He had genuinely grown to love the little girl and her little girl adored him. Just the thought of her and House giggling together while watching cartoons made her want him back in their lives. She missed the little dysfunctional family they had formed. Right there and then looking into her daughters eyes she made a decision. Tomorrow she would speak to the two men in her life and take control of her life once and for all..

Wilson's Room

House's leg was killing him. He took a bottle out of his jeans pocket and took out two pills.. He quickly popped them in his mouth and took a swig from a freshly poured glass of whiskey.

-House you told me you were going to go back to therapy.. That's one positive step that I'm sure Cuddy will be happy to hear.. All she wants is for you to be off the vicodin. She knows you will never be the perfect man but she just needs a little stability for herself and especially for her daughter.

-Like I just said Wilson..I don't think I can be the man that she wants me to be.. I have too many demons.. When you're fucked up, you're fucked up for life.. Doesn't matter how many head shrinkers you see.. I will never change.. I don't think I want to...

-Well, House if you want Cuddy in your life you're going to have to give up a little.. Do you love her?

-What do you think moron.. House said rolling his eyes

-Then act like it! Stop being so selfish..You have to sacrifice some things when you're in love.. Stop being such a pig headed idiot!

-I'll give up the vicodin and go to therapy if she gives up her need for perfection and control! How about that? She's not perfect either..

-You both are equally fucked up..that I agree with ..Wilson said smirking..

-Like you're the picture of mental health, Mr. I have been married three times and counting..

-Look both of you have to sit down and work this out. Listen to her and try to keep your cool..

-This is all if she decides to leave that idiot Italian she's with.. House said downing the last bit of his whiskey.

-She loves you.. She'll leave him..It's just a matter of time..

Next Morning Lisa's Suite

It was early morning and Lisa had just gotten out of bed. She had been startled awake by a knock at her door. She quickly went to the bathroom, splashed some water on her face, grabbed her robe and slowly made her way to answer the door. She opened her door and found a disheveled Jiovanni at her door.

-Good morning beautiful..

-Jiovanni, its only 8 am-

-I missed you so much, Lisa.. I'm sorry about what happened at the restaurant.. I just went a little crazy when I heard that lunatic put his hands on you. I never meant to scare Rachel.

-Jiovanni we need to talk but first let me brush my teeth and get myself together a bit.

-Okay, I'll make us some tea while you freshen up…

Lisa smiled at him and headed to the bathroom. She stepped in to the cold bathroom and shivered closing the door behind her. She slowly removed her clothes and stepped into the shower. She turned the knob adjusting the temperature. She liked her showers hot and steamy.. Just like her men she thought chuckling.. That thought immediately brought her thoughts back to House. The night that they had recently shared was as intense and fulfilling as she had remembered all their previous encounters being. The way that he had touched her and told her how beautiful she was.. The way that he had looked at her with those beautiful blue eyes of his.. She was getting turned on just thinking about it.. She positioned her body under the jets and let the warm water hit her body. She grabbed the soap and started lathering herself up from her breast down.

Flashback 2 years ago

House was behind her soaping her up. He was slowly lathering up her back as he kissed her neck. He brought his soapy hand to her left breast and massaged it slowly. He was pressed closely behind her, she could feel his hot breath on her neck and his hard cock throbbing on her ass.

-mmm House…she reached behind her and grabbed his cock.. House groaned and rubbed his cock on her ass.. Lisa turned around took the soap out of House's hand and rubbed some soap on her hands.. She grabbed House's cock and started pumping it slowly with her lathered hand.

-Fuck! Cuddy—House groaned as Lisa got down on her knees and took him in her mouth..

-Lisa! Lisa!.. Lisa was taken out of her daydream by the knock at the door and the calling of her name.

-Lisa are you okay in there? It's been awhile since you've went in there.. Jiovanni said with some worry in his voice..

-Sorry, I'll be right out..Lisa said sighing.. She washed the lather off her body and turned the shower off. She really was upset that Jiovanni had interrupted her memory. Those days were so special to her that reliving them even in memories made her feel fullness in her heart. She stepped out of the shower, her long curly hair dripping on the floor, and quickly dried herself with her large towel. She put her bra and panties on and put her robe on and quickly exited the bathroom headed towards the kitchen. As she entered the kitchen she saw Jiovanni with his back to her putting two cups in the microwave.

-Hey, I thought you had drowned in there.. He said with a smirk

-Sorry, I just—lost track of time

-I'm reheating the tea-got cold..

-Thanks..

She sat down at the kitchen table and waited for her tea. Watching Jiovanni putting sugar in their tea she couldn't help and think about how wonderful he had been to her for the last seven months. He was always attentive, sweet, affectionate and pretty much perfect. He was the complete opposite of House. She could even honestly say that Jiovanni was better looking than House. He was just as tall but with a little more weight on him than House and a much more toned body. House's hairline was receding while Jiovanni had a full head of salt and pepper colored hair on his head yet she still was more attracted to House. She smirked to herself and sighed..

-What are you smiling about?, Jiovanni said putting a cup of hot tea in front of her.

-Nothing—So we should talk.. she said taking a sip of her tea.

-Lisa, first I just want to say how sorry I am for scaring Rachel..

-You really scared her Jiovanni..

-I never meant to.. I also want to apologize for coming here drunk…I—I just was so hurt Lisa.. Why didn't you tell me that he had forced himself on you? He has no right to touch you.. You're not his anymore..He made sure of that..

Lisa had already made up her mind and she couldn't turn back now. She cared about Jiovanni but she had realized after being with House that her heart was still with him and would always be. It was going to be hard but she had to follow her heart. She deserved to be happy and Jiovanni deserved to be with a woman that truly loved him. She mustered up all the courage she had and took a deep breath.

-Jiovanni I can't do this anymore..

-I'm sorry Lisa..I know I have been a-

-Please let me finish.. I can't see you anymore.. This has to end.. I don't want to live a lie anymore..

-What are you saying Lisa? I know I have been acting like an idiot but you can't really mean what you're saying? You're going to throw us away that easily? Lisa I love you so much.. I love you and Rachel.. He said with tears in his eyes..

-I know you do Jiovanni—I care about you too but I'm not in love with you—I

-You love him! You're still in love with that lunatic! Jiovanni said pounding his fist into the table..

-Jiovanni please just listen to me..I can't—

-I'm not a idiot Lisa! I knew how much you loved him but I thought that was in the past considering he tried to kill you! You're not seriously going to dump me to go back to him? Please tell me you're not going to play his victim again? He was pacing around the room furiously.

-Jiovanni please calm down and sit. Please—

-Fine.. He sat and took a big swig of his tea trying to control himself..

-Jiovanni I don't want to hurt you but the truth is that I have never stopped loving House and I don't think I ever will. It may sound crazy and you may even be right but I can't pretend to love you when I don't. I'm tired of ruining away from what I really want.. I'm sorry..

-He will hurt you again Lisa.. You're making a huge mistake! You're a smart, independent woman yet you keep letting that lunatic back into your life.. He's never going to change no matter how much you love him..

-I know—I know he's crazy—I know he's a jerk and I know he will hurt me again but being without him hurts me more.. I'm sorry Jiovanni but I would never feel the same way about you even if I tried..

-Lisa I hope—

Just then they heard a loud knock at the door.

-Sorry Jiovanni

-It's okay there's nothing else to say..So I guess I should get going—Good luck Lisa. He placed a small kiss on her cheek and they both headed towards the door. Lisa opened the door and was shocked to see House standing there holding a single red rose.

-House what are—

-Wow, look who it is.. Dr. House.. How's the nose? Jiovanni said smirking

-Doing much better.. Didn't give me any problems last night when I was going down on your girlfriend House said blowing him a kiss..

-You bastard! I should break your neck! Jiovanni lunged at him but Lisa held him back..

-House stop it! Jiovanni please don't—

-Lisa, you made your choice—I hope you don't live to regret it.. Jiovanni said with a scowl as he marched in a furious rush pass House out of the room..

-Wow, he looks like he just got his balls handed to him.. What happened?

-You're a real jerk House… Why did you have to say that? Come in we have to talk..

-A rose for a rose. He said giving her the single rose.. I was a jerk yesterday. I come in peace..

-Thanks Lisa said smiling at him..

-Okay so what was that all about with lover boy?

-Well we kind of broke up

-Awesome! House said with a fist pump

-House! Stop being a child! It wasn't easy for me to let a good man like Jiovanni go.. He was a good boyfriend to me and a good father figure for Rachel..

-If he's so great why did you break up with Mr. Perfect? House said rolling his eyes

-Because I'm hopelessly in love with a jackass..

-Hmmm does this jackass have a name? House said smirking

-Gregory House.. King of all jackasses she said smiling

-Seems like this Gregory House is a lucky man..

-He is

-Are you sure about this Cuddy? I don't want us to end up hating each other again..

-I'm sure that I love you and I can't live without you but—

-But?

-I need you to promise me you're going to try to get off the vicodin

-Well I already promised Wilson that I would start therapy again and he said if I did I could get my old job back and if I have to give up vicodin to be with you I will do it gladly. I can live without vicodin but I can't live without you.. It won't be easy though Cuddy.. Always remember that I am a addict and will be till the day I die.. Relapses and temptations will always plague me..House said looking down at the floor. Lisa took a few steps towards him closing the gap between them; she reached for his face and lifted his face to look at her.

-I'm sorry I hurt you House and I'm sorry that I gave up on us.. I love you and I want us to be together. I'm willing to take another chance on us. Are you?

-Always

House lowered his head and brushed her lips gently with his..

-I love you..He whispered grabbing her and pressing her to him as he deepened the kiss

I hope you guys enjoyed the chapter.. I decided to give you guys some happy Huddy but don't be fooled there will be a lot of roadblocks in the way. Jiovanni and Gina are not going away that easily and neither are House's crazy jealousy and demons.. Thanks to all the reviewers and If you read please Review it makes me want to keep writing!
