Thanks to Aly for reviewing! I'm glad you enjoyed the last chapter! And just to let you guys know, there is about six or seven chapters left until the end. But there is still one part left of this story until it's finished!
Chapter Thirty Five: Meeting In Montana
St. Peter's Hospital, Helena, Montana
House put down the magazine he was reading and turned to look at the computer. A new update had come up, and the world map showed up on the screen. The massive clouds that had covered the entire Northern Hemisphere were now starting to disperse and from recent weather reports, the snows had been clearing up. He looked over at Brennan's desk and threw the magazine over to him to wake him up.
Brennan awoke immediately, looking at the magazine and then at House. "What?"
"What do you think?" retorted House. "Look at the screen!"
Brennan looked at the screen; his eyes opened wide in surprise. "The storm," he whispered. "It's clearing up." He turned to look at House. "It's over. The storm has ended."
"Lisa," House whispered, and then he got up from his chair, hurrying out of the office. He soon met up with Jennifer. She looked up at him, with a smile on her face. "What?" House asked.
"Got good news from Dr. Brennan?" she asked.
"Yes," replied House. "The storm that had claimed the entire Northern Hemisphere is now clearing up."
"That is good news to hear," agreed Jennifer. "We'll see a little warmer weather in Montana now."
House nodded. He began to walk past her, but she stopped him.
"I wasn't done yet," said Jennifer.
House turned to look at her.
"You say it's never lupus," Jennifer explained. "It was. And I see you had found another doctor to do the test for you."
House smiled. "And how long have you known me?" As he continued to walk, he said, "I guess you shouldn't trust my judgment though," said House. "Next time a patient exhibits signs of lupus, you should treat them for it right away."
"The patient didn't die, if that's what you were thinking," explained Jennifer. "She was admitted out of the hospital a long time ago. I just thought you might want to know that sometimes, it can be lupus."
"I still live by my motto," replied House. "And you know what another one of my mottos are?"
Jennifer shrugged.
"Everybody lies."
"I wasn't lying, if that's what you think," said Jennifer.
"I know you're not lying," replied House. "I just thought you wanted to know that sometimes, people do lie."
Jennifer shook her head. Then he was faced with a questioning stare from her as he turned to walk away again.
"Where are you going anyway?"
"To help someone," said House, "someone that has needed my help for a while now."
Jennifer was still confused, but went back to her work. When she left, House pulled out his cell phone and typed in a message to Cuddy saying, where are you going? Wherever she was going, he would go there too, and meet up with her at the airport.
Chicago, Illinois
Up in the sky they were hovering above the city of Chicago. Their helicopter was heading for Chicago O'Hare International Airport, where they had started running flights again, despite the snow. But most of the snow had been cleared off the runway, so the planes would be able to take off.
Cuddy gazed out the window, watching the snow melt off of buildings and seeing the city like it normally was again. She wondered where they would go, since they had evacuated so many times before, and thought it would be best if they just stayed in Chicago. But Cameron had insisted on going somewhere else; she had talked with the others on the helicopter and agreed on the one place they would be going: Montana.
She knew why they would go there; it had been the place Lindsay Monroe had gone weeks before, to evacuate from the storm. The storm had affected Montana the same way it had in Chicago, but they still had agreed on going there, just to see Lindsay. She didn't mind that; the last time she had seen Lindsay was a year ago at O'Hare when she had told her about her sister, Lianna Sardo, and when she learned something about Lindsay, that she had two different identities. She had also told Stella that and she knew that Samantha wouldn't be too happy about that, but something told her that Stella had known about Lindsay's secret for a long time, and it was time for her to find out the truth. There was also three other people that were with Lindsay in Montana: Danny Messer, Horatio Caine, and Calleigh Duquesne, who she hadn't met before.
Cameron tapped on her shoulder and signaled to her cell phone. She realized that someone had sent her a new text message. It was from House, saying, where are you going?
She looked up to Stella, who was sitting across from her. She showed her the message and Stella mouthed the words, "Montana, Billings Logan International Airport."
She quickly typed in her response, sent it, and closed the phone. She turned to gaze out the window again, glad to know House was coming back to see her again.
St. Peter's Hospital, Helena, Montana
Billings Logan International Airport, Montana.
She was going to Montana. He would immediately leave the hospital, go to Billings, and wait for her at the airport. And when she got off the plane, he would greet her, and he would see the beautiful smile of hers. She would want to know the answers of the questions she had been eager to know for so long, like where he had been and what he had been doing to benefit the both of them. He would sign to her—he had learned ASL himself too—telling her that he had been in Montana, still working as a doctor, but finding out the reason why the hurricane had hit the state of New Jersey a year ago, which in the end had been caused by both global warming and global cooling. And he would wrap her in his arms, glad to know that she had survived the storm.
He looked around at the hospital, the last time he would ever see the place where he had been for such a long time. It would be odd not seeing Brennan and Jennifer again, but he would be glad to see his old staff, Kutner, Taub, and Thirteen, the two lovers Cameron and Chase, his friend Wilson, and his love, Lisa Cuddy. And hopefully, in the future, he would see Princeton Plainsboro Hospital in New Jersey again.
Chapter 36- Everyone meets up at the airport, including House, to go to one place--Bozeman, Montana, to meet up with Lindsay and the others.
