Sorry about the late update. Inspiration seems to be drying up a little with this. sigh Thanks for the reviews everyone.

Anyway, they just can't stay away from each other, can they. ;D


"Chase was in your office?" House was surprised. "Why?"

"He said he was looking for me. He wanted to deliver a message; that you wanted to talk to me."

"Hmmm," House narrowed his eyes in suspicion. "Now why would he say that? I told him nothing of the sort. I might have mentioned putting arsenic in Vogler's coffee, but I don't think I mentioned you. Unless I was thinking aloud…" He looked thoughtful.

Wilson looked exasperated. House was probably only joking in his own strange way about thinking aloud, but if he had… considering the kind of thoughts House was likely to have about him, that would not be a good thing.

"So he was lying." House mused. "Why?"

"You know him better than I do." Wilson replied.

"Cameron asked me about us earlier."

Wilson was surprised at this sudden change of subject. "What did you say?"

"I evaded her. You know, quick feint to the left, swiped her legs from under her with my cane and legged it."

Wilson suppressed a laugh. Wouldn't do to encourage him. "What's this got to do with Chase? You don't think he suspects…?"

"He might," House replied darkly.

"Well what should we do? We'll need to be careful."

"It's going to come out sooner or later. There are already rumours."

"I'd prefer to make it later. Our feelings… they're not really conventional for people in our position."

"And since when have I cared about that?"

Wilson laughed slightly. "Never."

"Enough about Chase," House told him, a smile that was almost a leer beginning to curve his lips, "We have better things to do with our time."

The oncologist returned the smile and moved forwards to meet his lover's passionate kiss.


Chase returned to Wilson's office some days later, making sure that this time it was when he was on Clinic duty. Surreptitiously he removed his little camcorder from where he had hidden it on the shelf, and with it the receiver for the remote control that he still had in his pocket. He took one last look around the room and left quickly.

Later at home, the Australian played back the footage he had captured while House and Wilson had been together. Not much to his surprise, it contained concrete proof of his suspicions. He chuckled to himself as he thought of all the things he could do with this. The blackmail possibilities alone were priceless. Working for House certainly taught you to be sneaky and somewhat heartless, and Chase was a quick learner.

Just imagine if he showed the tape to Vogler.

Chase predicted he was going to have a lot of fun.


More updates soon I hope. Please review:D
