Chapter 18

Author's notes: Ok first I would just like to give everyone reading a HUGE apology for the delay! I have a legitimate excuse, I have been in hospital for…. A while. I was unable to gain access to a computer because I was stuck on strict bed rest. Well anyways I really hope you enjoy the chapter. Once again SORRY for the delay!

They had all arrived at the campsite, all of them owning a reminder of the evening. For Chase it was the taste of puke, after he had spent the majority of the night feeling the excessive amount of alcohol come out two ways. For Foreman he now had a lovely black eye. House thought it would be the perfect timing to slip in a "How can you have a black eye, your black anyway" joke. In which Foreman's response was the usual. The famous eye roll.

Cuddy gained a love bite, well quite a few. It made a nice trail from the top of her neck to her chest. Wilson was pleased at the 'art' he had created along Cuddy's body and found it necessary to approach random strangers among the club and point out the red marks he had left on his fellow colleague.

And as for House and Cameron. They had the image of the poor old woman which happened to walk down the same dark alley where they were…having some adulterated fun. At first the old woman thought the crippled guy had dropped something, and his young, woman friend was helping him pick it up (Usually the first thought when you see someone on the floor on their knees). But she was wrong. And as the old lady approached them, she nearly had a heart attack on the spot.

But every night has to come to an end, and for the group from Plainsborough teaching hospital their night had come to an enjoyable, end.

They had arrived at the campsite, stumbling among the roots of trees and the holes in the ground, which hid secretly amongst leaves. They clambered into their tents, and settled down for the night knowing that tomorrow, it was time to face reality and go home. As their heads hit the pillow, they all gradually drifted into a deep sleep. Silence filled the campsite, well, asides from the loud, beast sounds coming from Chase, which could be referred to as snoring. But there was something else. The quiet chit chat of two woman. Yes, that's right. Cuddy and Cameron had decided to not waste their last night and had stayed up talking and laughing. But as darkness began to turn to light, they crawled back into their tents and drifted to sleep.

No sooner did their heads hit the pillows, than did the sun slowly rise. House's eyes steadily opened. His vision still blurred by the drowsy awakening he saw the outline of a woman, his woman, asleep still. He turned on his side, wrapping his arms around her and kissed the back of her neck.

But something didn't feel right. Literally. A frown appeared across House's features as his arms wrapped around her chest. 'Is it me or has Cameron suddenly grown huge boobs?' House thought to himself. Rubbing his eyes to regain his correct vision he pulled his arms away and sat up. The woman began to stir and rolled over, waking slowly.

House cocked his head, hoping that his mind was deceiving him.

"Cuddy?" He asked, unsure if it was a dream.

"Hey, House………………… HOUSE! What the hell are you doing in my tent", Cuddy screeched, trying to cover her chest with her arms.

"I think you'll find it's my tent", House said in an informative tone. Cuddy looked around bemused at the fact she was in House's tent, sleeping next to House.

"Hey I know I'm extremely irresistible and attractive. But this old cripple has already got some cute assed woman to give him some sugar", House said, referring to Cameron.

"House, don't flatter yourself. I didn't purposely come into your tent. Last night me and Cameron stayed up chatting and then we went to our tents and…". Cuddy began as she recollected the events.

"ok ok. If you're here where the hell is Cam…", House was interrupted by the loud scream that appeared to be coming from Wilson's tent. House quickly grabbed his cane and hobbled out the tent. Limping as fast as he could to Wilson's tent, Cuddy following behind trying to put on her shirt. House popped his head into the tent to look.

He smirked at the sight. There sat Cameron, trying to cover her modesty, with a look of utter shock across her face. And sat opposite her was Wilson mirroring her look of confusion.

"WHAT THE HELL!" She yelled.

"Sorry, sorry, I thought you were someone else", Wilson said stuttering from embarrassment.

"Do you always get this reaction when you wake up next to a woman?" House said with a laugh. Wilson looked round to see his friend with a giant smirk across his face.

"What the hell is going on here?" Wilson asked.

"It seems that we've swapped for the night", House said looking at Cuddy as she popped her head into the tent.

"Cuddy",

"Cameron",

"Wilson",

"House", They all said simultaneously.

"Good morning everybody, how did you all slee…", Chase began but stopped as he stepped into the tent where Wilson and Cameron laid still undressed.

"CHASE", chimed the four people already in the tent.

"Woah, what. How. Why? Ok it's too early I'm going back to my tent", Chase stuttered, his head in his hands, trying to erase the image of what could have happened within that tent.

Cuddy, Cameron, House and Wilson looked at each other silently. Cameron was the first to break the silence.

"Would someone like to explain what's going on and why I was woken up to a grope on my ass by Wilson", Cameron asked cringing at the thought of Wilson touching her butt. Wilson's face tinged red with embarrassment.

"Yeah I'm a little confused", Wilson said.

"Well last night, me and Cameron stayed up chatting. Then about 4 am we decided to go to bed. Where we must have obviously got into the wrong tents", Cuddy informed everyone. They all looked at each other, not sure what to say. Of course House would have to be the one to break the silence with some sarcastic comment.

"I'm surprised Chase didn't accidentally stumble into my tent, he's been giving me the 'eyes' since we got here". The others laughed.

"Well if you don't mind I'm going to go back to my tent and put on some clothes", Cameron said wrapping a sheet around her.

"I'll assist you with that", House said, and they walked back over to their tent.

Cuddy looked down at her watch.

"SHIT, the bus to take us to the airport is gonna be here in… TEN MINUTES!!!" She screamed. And soon the team were rushing around.

Please review, sorry I had to end this chapter so abruptly. I got to go back to the hospital. Hope you enjoy!
