..:Note:.. There are some SPOILERS in this Chapter, so if you don't want to know what's going to happen in the next few episodes, DON"T READ. But if you already know, then by all means read to your hearts content. Moreover, I WILL BE updating tomorrow as well. So keep an eye out for that one as well. :D

Also, for Ariadne. I chose physio, because it would be easy for her to leave a post at any split second whim. Plus, bear with me, It was like midnight, I was exhausted from work, and it was the first thing that came to my mind XD For TigerTiger02, I never did see Leno a few nights ago, I don't watch TV. It's only on for me, when I watch movies, or when I watch House. So I had no idea he was on. But yes I knew he was a Brit. Which was another reason for the shows appeal :D


Two weeks were almost over. Cameron was ready to leave, but he knew she didn't really want to do it. Whenever she was around him, she looked depressed. He couldn't tell if it was because she was leaving and was going to miss the hospital or if it was because he hadn't really talked to her much at all. And as the weeks drew to an end, he had gotten more and more mad at himself for letting her quit and saying nothing about it. For even saying no in the first place during that horrible conversation, when he should've said yes or at least he could've threw in a witty quip. Now he was forced to realize how stupid he was then. Something drastic had to be done.

He could make her stop dead in her tracks and she wouldn't leave. He knew it, she knew it, and everybody else knew it. She could definetly get to him that way. House, rubbed his temples and stood up, approaching the door. He would need to talk this over with someone first, and he knew there was really only one person he could trust, sort of.

Stalking over to the oncology specialist, he sighs and knock on the door. Wilson, busy at his laptop, gazes up and with a surprised look spread across his look. Pulling down the top, he powers down and motions for House to take a seat as he walks around the room. He shakes his head and returns to pacing.

"I think this is the first time you have ever come to my office, this must be of big importance to you.""Yes, it does actually, I need a consult on something"
"Why didn't you just page me then? I would've just come by myself."
"It's not that kind of consult. It's about Cameron."
"Oh. I see, that kind of consult. Look if she doesn't want to leave, she'll tell you, even though she was the one to quit"
"This doesn't really have anything to do with that.""Then what is it?" Wilson, moves out of his chair and sits on the edge of his desk, crossing his arms over his chest.
" I'm going to ask her out."
" Like on a date?"
"Yes, exactly! Now why didn't I think of that. I knew the word started with a 'D'. Yes a date."
" She'll see right through you, you know."
" What do you mean Doctor?"
" She's not stupid. She'll know that your only asking her out because you don't want her to leave the hospital."
"It's not about her leaving the hospital."
"Then what is it about." sighing, Dr House answers the question.
"I like her. Plus, for a bonus, she likes me.Who'd a thought"
"She likes you? How do you know."
"Because she has already professed her undying love for me on paper by writing 'do you like me? yes or no?' with small boxes next to the yes and no'. You know, so I could check a box off and pass it back to her."
"Really?" Wilson's eyes grow wide.
"Of course not. Do you think we're twelve years old?"
"Then how do you know?"
"She's told me indirectly"
"How so indirectly?"
"Well she said "oh Doctor Gregory House, you make my blood boil with your bedroom eyes!" Dr house, chuckles to himself and Wilson joins in with the hysterics.
"She did not. But seriously, what happened, how do you know for sure she would agree."
"I heard her talking to Dr.Chase and Dr. Foreman about me. And she said she liked me that way."
"Ah. I see. So what do you need from me?"
"I need to know what to do for when I ask her out."
" Right. Because you haven't since ..." he trails off, leaving the woman's name float in the air.
"It's alright. You can say her name. Stacey. She had reasons for what she did. I'm not going to hold her for that."
"right..."
"So are you going to help me or not?"
"Yes, of course. I'll help you. This is what you do first..."
