Its been 4 weeks since Cameron found out she was pregnant and since Jay started his drug abuse, which by the way is getting worse. Jay has been irritable and his grades have been doing down ever so slightly, but not enough for Chase to question his brother's actions, just yet. Work has been pins and needles for Cameron and Chase, House has been as bad as ever, teasing Cameron about her weight gain and tormenting Chase about becoming a new father.
Dr. Cuddy has an ultrasound scheduled for the afternoon and Chase and Cameron are more than happy to get out of House's sights.
"Are you ready?" Chase asks Cam with a smile.
"As ready as I'll ever be."
They enter the exam room where Dr. Cuddy is waiting for them.
"How are feeling, Cameron?"
"Good, my morning sickness is all gone, thank god, and I'm feeling more comfortable."
"Yeah, the second trimester is always the easiest, then when you reach the third its back to square one. Hop up and lets take a look."
Dr. Cuddy performs the ultrasound and Cameron and the baby both appear to be healthy.
"The only thing I want is for you to gain some more weight. Maybe Robert will join you in the weight gaining category, right?" Chase looks up with a smirk.
"Yeah, sure I can do that."
"What?" Cameron asks inquisitively.
"You gain, I'll gain weight along with you, and then we can lose it together."
Cameron laughs, "Okay, if thats what you want."
"Well then I guess Ill see you both in four weeks, and then you can decide whether or not you want to know the sex of the baby."
"Sounds good." Chase says
After the ultrasound Chase heads decides to call Jay and Camerom heads down to cover House's clinic hours.
Meanwhile Jay is at home and what do you know he's sleeping with his head down on the kitchen table. His phone rings and rings, and he doesn't pick up.
Concerned Chase decides to take a drive overto his apartment to see why he's not answering. He walks in the house and sees Jay fast asleep.
He rushes over to him "Hey Jay are okay?" He's shaking him to try and wake him up.
Again he says his name, but more loudly "JAY!" Jay suddenly pops his head up and looks at Chase.
"What you want, dont you know you're not supposed to wake a man when he's sleeping?"
"I was concerned, and you look like you've been to hell and back again."
"Thanks for noticing."
"What's up with man?"
"Its nothing, I'll be fine"
"Oh BS! I know you better than that to know that its not nothing."
Jay hoarsley states, "I failed my chem lab, alright."
"That's uncharacteristic of you, if you need help all you have to do is ask"
Jay gets up, "Look I don't need you help."
Chase is some what taken a back by his sudden onslaught of aggression.
"Jay, whats going on with you? You're a mess, pull yourself together mate."
"I'm fine, just leave me alone!" Jay storms to his room and slams the door.
Chase with a head full of steam heads back to work. While Jay is in his room he takes out the bottle and throws it against the door, cracking the lid and sending pills flying everywhere. He gathers himself and angrily picks them up, missing one right near to corner of his bed. He's so overwhelmed that he just buries his hands in his face and cries.
