Chapter 20 - All good things come to an end.
"House. Can you come outside a second?" Wilson gestured.
"Sure." He replied slightly confused. He thought Wilson was still pissed with him. Maybe he'd got over it. He always was a bit of a pushover at times.
As they left the room another doctor came in. She was very pretty. Her brown yet returning to blonde hair was pulled back, into a ponytail. She looked young, maybe in her mid twenties Katrina thought to herself. She was wearing casual but very smart clothes and had a slight clinical look about her.
"Hi. I'm doctor Cameron." The doctor smiled.
Katrina instantly took a disliking to Dr. Cameron. She didn't know what it was about this woman but she was too nice for her own good, no doctor looked this happy.
"Hello" she said quietly.
"Oh. You're from…England. Right?"
"Got it in one."
"So how long are you over here for?"
"Two weeks."
"Are you here on your own? Or with family?"
"On my own." This woman was poking into Katrina's business and she didn't like it. This doctor was talking to her like she was her best friend. The reality was that she liked her less second by second.
"So you here for a holiday or is there another reason?"
"Both."
"Do you want me to call anyone for you?" Cameron enquired oblivious to the look that Katrina was giving her.
"I'm fine. Thanks."
"No-one at all?"
"I said no."
------------------------------
"House, what are you going to do?"
"What do you mean?"
Wilson then spotted Cameron entering Katrina's room.
"There are two women in there completely besotted with you and you're messing them about."
"Huh?"
"House! Stop acting like you don't know what's going on."
"Truth be told Jimmy I don't know what you're talking about."
"You kiss Cameron. And then expect her not to think that it doesn't mean anything?"
House shuffled his weight unable to give an answer, so Wilson continued.
"You claim to love Katrina, but you cheated on her."
"Wait a minute there. She cheated on me with you."
"No she didn't" Wilson explained. "You were still friends at the time. Nothing more, nothing less."
"Oh god! What have I done?" House said sitting on a chair and placing his head in his hands. He looked up to see and bored Katrina talking to Cameron, she caught his eye and gave him the look that signalled it was time for him to be a jerk.
"Right" he said recomposed "Back to work"
--------------------------
Relief washed over Katrina's face as she saw Greg walking towards her room. She then turned to face Cameron who was also looking at House. Cameron had gone into a complete daze.
"Dr. Cameron" House announced as he entered. "Why are you here?"
She immediately snapped out the daze to answer him "Checking on the patient. Also I need to talk to you in private."
"Well I need to check the patient as it is my case and I'll talk to you later."
"House." She moaned very quietly "I need to talk to you now." Discreetly Cameron brushed her hand against House's, not discreetly enough as Katrina caught sight of the action and was positively fuming.
"Dr. House" Katrina faked, "I don't feel well."
"We'll talk later Dr. Cameron." House informed the female doctor as he walked over to the patient.
Frustrated Cameron left the room. Cursing the patient, as she saw House more then Cameron did lately. She decided her new aim was to find out what this woman's connection was to House.
------------------
"What's with her?" Katrina asked.
"She likes me."
"I don't care. What the hell is she doing trying to grab your hand?"
"She has a crush on me. I can't help it. Must be my good looks."
"Stop it."
"Are you jealous?"
"Maybe. But you wouldn't go for her…would you?"
Truth time
"I have something to tell you."
"You would?"
He remained silent.
"You have?"
Silence continued.
"When?"
"Yesterday." He said
"While I was in surgery?"
"No. Before that?"
"Before surgery? Is that why you didn't come?" she asked tears dispersing themselves from her eyes.
"No…" he was stopped by shouting.
"Save it! I'm sure she's waiting for you now! Go to her!"
"But…"
"Go to her!" Katrina screamed even though it was breaking every piece of her heart.
Dr. Cuddy heard shouting and assumed House was arguing with another patient. She decided she needed to sort it out as quickly as possible before House did something Cuddy would regret.
"Is there a problem?" she asked poking her head around the door.
"Yes, take Dr. House off my case." The patient demanded.
"Certainly." Cuddy reasoned "Come on House. You're off the case." She then barged House out the room and turned to look at him.
"I don't know what you've done or why you took this case but you're off it. Go to your office and play on something."
He hung his head in shame and hopped on the motorbike for the ride home.
--------------------
Wilson entered the room of his crying friend. He knew it would all end in tears. Luckily he wasn't the one who caused them for once.
AN: I'm sorry, this isn't one of my finest. Alot on my mind at the moment. I get my GCSE results (exams) tomorrow so i'm a teensy bit nervous. Students in the U.K are the most tested in the world...typical! oh well random bit of information for you there.
