Out of the Ordinary

Disclaimer: I don't own House M.D., or any of the characters, otherwise some of my crazy plot ideas would have ended up on the show…….

I won't keep you busy; I know I left a big cliffhanger at the end of the last chapter, R&R and Enjoy!

"Oh, let me help you up!" said Cuddy, leaning down to pull House to his feet. House grabbed hold off his cane and regained his balance and then, completely without warning, grabbed Lisa and kissed her. When they finally managed to pull away from each other slightly, it was Cuddy's turn to be speechless. Seeing how surprised she looked, he leaned into her ear and whispered, "Let's just say I decided that you weren't so awful after all." House grinned. Lisa smiled shyly because she knew that when you were dealing with Gregory House, what he had just said was the equivalent of a normal person saying that they were madly in love with you. Their faces met again in a passionate kiss, and the world outside seemed to melt away for a minute. Unfortunately, the way it came back was not quite as pleasant as it could have been.

Dr. Chase walked briskly down the hallway with a large armful of papers, shuffling through them and reading them as he walked. He turned the corner down the hallway, and came face to face with House and Cuddy. His mouth dropped open and his armful of papers dropped everywhere, fluttering down the hall and covering the floor. After staring blankly for a minute with his mouth still hanging open, Chase finally managed to say "What in the…." With that, House and Cuddy snapped back from their own little world and noticed Chase standing there for the first time. It was quite an odd scene- Chase standing at the top of the hall with his mouth hanging wide open, House and Cuddy still holding each other and turning gradually redder and redder, and papers still settling on the hallway floor. It was House who spoke next "Well, would you look at the time… I have clinic duty! I've got to go, God forbid that I be late for that…" House said, his hands slowly slipping away from Cuddy and back onto his cane. "I'd pick up those papers if I were you, Dr. Chase." said House as he walked by Chase and limped around the corner. "I have to go too" said the now tomato-red Cuddy, "Good luck picking up the papers, Chase" she said as she rushed off in the direction of her office as quickly as she could. Chase stooped down and began picking up papers, thinking the whole time What in the world was that all about?
