Pairing: Huddy
Disclaimer: I don't own House or its characters Fox does tho, I just used them shamelessly for this snippet.

House and Cuddy spend the rest of the day inside, the weather picture perfect for the horrible description. She had made him take his pills, suggested a time plan for the doses if he really wanted to cut down. The fear of organ failure had finally reached him and it hurt her too to see him this vulnerable. They passed their time like a normal couple, well as normal as it could get anyway. Necking, cuddling, just simply hanging out. It was a bliss House hadn't allowed himself for a long time and he was content where he was, in their own world. A world without the mess he created, without the solitude he had created for himself.

It had to end. He saw it coming, felt the dread. They had barely talked about what he did and he was thankful for that, but he knew Cuddy. Once back in the hospital everything would break around them. He was already Suspended, the board would get to know about it and maybe this time he had to face consequences and Lisa couldn't to a damn thing.

House watched her closely, cooking in the kitchen, her movements seemingly planned long ago, like everything she did. Had she planned this as well? Knew what would happen once they would be back in reality? All he could think about was how she could let herself be seen with him. Did she care enough to keep on or was thing they had strictly holidays, and more important what the heck did he want?

Lisa plopped down next to him, scrutinizing him.

'What is on your mind?'

'If I could bribe you to let me tie you to the bed.'

Harmless joking, his refuge.

'Maybe if you're really nice, until then Dinner is ready.'

She smirked and left him sitting on the couch, his mind blank, blood rushing south and eyes darkening considerably. He grinned and followed her.

'Oh you vixen!'

Slapping her ass he passed her. Giving a tiny yelp she glared at him. How could she even come close to thinking that he would get his own plate? Instead he started wolfing down his food immediately after she had put it down in front of him, not waiting for her to get seated. Cuddy gave him a cross look and shook her head more to herself then him.

'What? All that sex and necking powered me out. Need my nutrition to keep on being the Sex god I am.'

His eyes twinkled playfully and she just had to smirk back.

'Whoever said you were a sex god?'

Banter, she loved it. It made her feel complete, adored. He gave her the eyebrow, looking as if she lost her mind. Which she did last night.

'The: ' i Oh God yes Greg, right there, so damn good/i ' kinda suggested it.'

He imitated her moaning and breathy half scream from last night perfectly, making her wonder just how much of the time he had spend analyzing her. Lisa rolled her eyes and went back eating. House knew he had been good, had made her come several times the night before and made her feel like in heaven the rest of the day.

Lisa briefly wondered what really had been on his mind. His mood had been broody while she was preparing dinner. The same look she had on her face whenever she had the time to think. The same questions running through he head. What would she do? What were his intentions? Where would this lead or not lead to?

House was leering at her again, his plate cleaned and his hands resting next to it, stroking over the table top.

'You want some more?'

Cuddy was already standing up when he shook his head and made her plop back down frowning.

'I want desert.'

A suggestive and feral look, licking his lips for added effect. It made her blush furiously. He stood then and walked over to her side, taking her plate and his along and set them down into the sink. He came to stand next to her and reached for her arm pulling her up not too roughly.

'Greg what the hell...'

Lisa couldn't finish, his mouth pressed against her and his tongue stroking over hers in a soft, luring motion.

'...desert...'

It was a hasty reply as he turned them and pressed her against the table, forcing her to slide up on it. House spread her legs and then came to stand between them. Thought of hygiene ran through her head and then were swiped away as he claimed her mouth once more and leaning her so far back so that she had to lie down on the table. It felt magnificent to have him on her, his warmth and weight, his hands roaming her sides and everywhere Greg could reach, stroking and kneading. A moan that seemed oddly foreign to her made its way out of Lisa's mouth as she felt how much he wanted her pressed against her thigh.

House and Cuddy had barely made it to bed that night, each time delayed for a round of necking, on the couch, the recliner, against the bookshelf. It was almost midnight when they finally landed in bed, both panting hard, skin flushed.

'Damn woman...you know how to wear someone out.'

Greg gave her an appreciative stare down her chest and smirked even more.

'Tell me you're not only using me for the holidays.'

He hadn't thought about what it must've sounded like until Lisa gave him a confused look and then bolted from the room.

i Sorry folks for having kept you waiting I had to finish my term paper and send it in. I'm hoping to get a lot of writing down now. /i
