House had just made it to his office. He was successful in avoiding, Cuddy or anyone else that might have something to bother him with. Sitting down in his chair and sitting his feet on the desk he was just about to start up his new game on his gameboy when the phone rang. He contemplated just letting the phone ring, but soon the ringing was to much.
"What?" House barked into the phone, looking up at Foreman and Chase, who had just entered the office.
"Help me," Those two words made Houses blood run cold.
"Cameron? Where are you? What's wrong?" House ignored the questioning looks from Foreman and Chase. Standing up from his chair he was ready to bolt, as soon as she told him where she was.
"I'm on parking level D, I didn't see the car coming. It hurts so bad…" Cameron's voice was growing fainter with each word. Until finally she didn't have the strength to stay awake any longer. She knew House would find her, the last thing she heard before she blacked out was House screaming into the phone.
"Cameron, damn it." House slammed the phone down into its cradle and grabbed his cane.
"You two follow me," Foreman and Chase almost had to run to keep up with House, as he weaved his way through the hospital to the elevator.
"Where are we going?" Chase asked once they were inside the elevator on their way to the parking garage. House didn't say anything, the doors opened and House took off once again. He didn't even bother to check if Chase and Foreman were behind him. He wove his way through the almost empty parking area, why in the hell would she park up here?
House picked up his pace when he saw her laying in the middle of one of the parking spots. She was on her back with her right leg twisted at an unnatural angle, obviously broken. House quickly made his way to her side, letting out a small sigh of relief when he saw that she was breathing.
"Go get a stretcher, move your asses." House yelled when neither Foreman or Chase made a move to leave.
"Cameron, can you hear me?" House asked dropping down to the ground by her side. Gently cupping her cheek in his hand, it seemed to be the only part of her that wasn't injured. Cameron moaned lightly at his touch her eyes fluttering, but not quite opening.
"Come on, open your eyes." House rubbed his thumb along her cheek, gently encouraging her to open her eyes. Cameron's eyes fluttered open, she looked up locking gazes with House.
"I knew you would come," Cameron murmured tiredly, her voice a barely there whisper. House had to lean in over her to make out what she was saying. Cameron's eyes started to drift shut, the pain starting to overpower her.
"Cameron stay with me here," House pleaded not caring that his voice broke slightly.
"My leg hurts," Cameron murmured, silent tears slipping down her face.
"I know honey, just hang on." House looked over his shoulder when he heard Foreman and Chase coming with the stretcher. He turned back to Cameron when he felt her hand on his shoulder, he leaned in closer when he realized she was talking again.
"Stay with me," Cameron pleaded before giving into the darkness once again. Her last conscience thought was of House whispering that he wasn't going anywhere.
"Give me the neck brace, you two work on bracing her leg." House skillfully lifted her head and slid the neck brace into place. Once that was done he turned his intention to Chase and Foreman who were trying to stabilize her leg without causing more damage.
"Just immobilize it, and lets go it doesn't need to be pretty." House snapped at them before turning his attention back to Cameron's face. Her skin was way paler than normal, which meant that it was either from the pain or internal bleeding. He was praying that it was the first one that one was a lot easier to fix, and a lot safer for her.
Once Cameron was safely loaded on to the stretcher, they made their way to the elevator were House hit the button for the Diagnostic medicine floor. There was no way he was going to let those quacks in the ER anywhere near Cameron.
Cameron slowly fought her way back to realty, the first thing she heard was Houses voice. He was barking orders at someone, nothing new there. Then the pain hit her, Cameron let out a small moan when she tried to open her eyes. Slowly she managed to force her eyes open, to find House, Foreman, and Chase all looking at her with a look of concern.
"Welcome back, you had us worried." Foreman was the first to pipe up, taking out his pen light to check her pupils. Cameron groaned when the bright light intensified her head ache.
"What's the damage?" Cameron asked looking up at House, she knew he would be straight forward with her.
"You broke your right leg in three places, we set it so it should heal up just fine. You also have a mild concussion, but other than that you were lucky. Do you remember what happened?"
"The only thing I remember is that I was almost to the elevator, when I heard a car coming. I moved to the side let it pass, but I guess I didn't move fast enough. I don't remember the car hitting me just the pain in my leg afterwards. I didn't know if anyone would find me so I called you." Cameron replied with a small smile, letting her eyes drift closed. The pain meds were starting to kick in and she just wanted to float away with them.
"We'll let you sleep for a bit, we will be back in a bit to check on you." Foreman said as he and Chase made their way to the door. "Dr. House are you coming?"
"No. This is the best excuse I've had, to get out of clinic duty and I'm not going to pass it up." House replied as he propped his feet up on the bed next Cameron's and grabbed the remote. It was time for general hospital after all.
"Ok page us you need to," With that Foreman and Chase left, leaving House and Cameron alone. Cameron fought her eyes open again to look at House, he didn't look very comfortable in that chair his legs propped up at an odd angle. Besides she wanted him next to her, and the pain meds were giving her an added dose of courage.
"House?"
"Yeah?" House turned his head to look at her, his eyes meeting hers. Cameron held his gaze for a few seconds before looking away.
"You don't look very comfortable in that chair, you know you might be more comfortable if you were able to stretch out." Cameron looked from House to the bed and then back to House. Silently asking him to join her on the small hospital bed, she just needed him to make her feel safe again.
"You know if you want to get me into bed all you have to do is ask,"
"Will you come lay with?" Cameron asked unable to meet his eyes. She was starting to lose the battle to stay awake her eyes were starting to droop. House didn't respond instead he made his way to the left side of the bed carefully slipping into the bed next to her. Cameron quickly wrapped her arms around his waist, resting her head against his chest, finally giving in to sleep. House took a moment to watch her as she drifted off, finally able to relax now that she was sleeping in his arms. He had come so close to losing her, something that the bruises that were starting to form on her face and arms were a constant reminder of that. At that moment House didn't care who saw them, he didn't care about who might walk in as he let his eyes drift shut.
"He really cares about her doesn't he?" Wilson glanced over at Houses mom before responding. He wasn't really sure what to say to her he knew House cared for Cameron. Hell he was probably in love with her, but he wasn't sure if it was his place to say anything.
"Yeah he does, but more importantly she cares about him." They stood silently looking through the small window into Cameron's room, their eyes drawn to the bed. Where House and Cameron lay sleeping unaware of them.
