House had successfully avoided Wilson during all day. He had several surgeries and patients as Taub told him. Now, he was heading to see Elle, when he arrived to her office, he saw a man sitting in front of her desk but Elle was nowhere to be seen. House opened the door and the man turned around.

"Hi" House saluted.

"Hi! Um, Elle will be back in a second" The man said and House nodded.

"You're Elle's husband, aren't you?

"How…?"

"I saw a photograph" House said as he pointed at a frame on the desk.

"Yeah! I'm William Scott, Will" Will said and he extended his hand

"Greg House" House said and shook his hand reluctantly

"I know who you are. Elle has told me about you"

"Really? And what did she tell you?"

"That you're quite a legend here" House smirked at that. "In a good and a bad sense"

"What do you mean?"

"In a good sense because she says you're an excellent doctor, someone to admire and if she says so I believe her and in a bad sense because you drive everybody crazy in this hospital" Will chuckled.

"Do I drive her crazy?" House asked curious.

"Ask her, not me"

"I'm asking you"

"Are you working with her now?" Will asked.

"You know I am" House said giving a steely look to Will

"Is that a problem?"

"I don't know, is it?"

"My wife is like Pandora's box, she knows a lot of secrets of a lot of people but she's also a safe."

"Good to know" House said

"By the basic and non-delicate things Elle has told me, you've turned out to be one of the most interesting cases she's had for a while. You're her challenge" House raised an eyebrow. "No offense!" House smirked "She loves challenges. Elle likes action in her cases and you give her that" Will chuckled and House smirked.

"Elle has also told me about you"

"I know" Will said. House was fascinated to see the level of trust and harmony the couple had. Good communication. "Everybody's worthy no matter what" House moved a bit uncomfortably in the chair. "Want an advice? I really don't know what's going on with you and I won't ask because I'm not a doctor or anything about but I know my wife and she's an excellent doctor and person. She's made happy a lot of people, listen to her, do some thinking and allow yourself to be happy. Life is short!" House remained thoughtful after that.

Suddenly, a child's sweet laughter was heard outside the hallway and both men turned their heads to see Elle and a four year old little girl approaching the office.

"Look who's here!" Will said. "You ok" The little girl nodded.

"I got a pink band-aid, see!" The little girl showed her arm.

"And I see you got a lollipop too" The little girl started to giggle.

"She's been a big girl" Elle said.

"I brought one too" The little girl said giving the lollipop to Will.

"Thanks Violet" Will said with a smile and the little girl smiled him back.

"What about me? Don't I get any?" House said and little Violet turned around

"I don't have more, sorry" Violet said sadly.

"It's okay, kiddo"

"Are you sick?" Violet said approaching House.

"A little" House said with a pouting voice

"Oh! What's wrong?"

"I'm heartbroken and sad"

"Well, I hurt my arm, I cried but just a little and Aunt Elle healed me and I don't cry anymore. I'm sure Aunt Elle will heal you and you'll be happy again and she'll give you a lollipop too"

"I'm sure she will" House said with a little smile.

"I think we should go and leave Aunt Elle do her job because otherwise she won't be able to heal Greg" Will said standing up and picking Violet's bag and Violet nodded enthusiastically.

"I'll see you at home, princess" Elle said as she responded to a big hug and a kiss coming from Violet

"See you at home" Will said and pecked his wife. "Nice to meet you, Greg"

"Same here"

"Bye Greg" Violet said waving him her little hand. "Hope to see you happy next time"

"Bye V" House said with a smirk.

House couldn't resist looking at the interaction between Will and Elle and between the couple with the little girl. That perfect life couldn't be healthy to him or… could it be?
