I'm in a writing mood this weekend… so here's chapter 3!

Some 50 songs later and after driving for what seemed like forever Macayla finally arrived at PPTH. Pulling into the parking garage she found a spot and turned of the engine. She sat there with her hands on the wheel for about five minutes trying to get

Herself together, and then she opened the door and stepped out heading toward the hospital doors.

Cuddy had just checked on House, who was now out of surgery and in ICU. She was now on her way back to her office to wait for Macayla. Stepping into her office she walked over to her chair, sitting down she leaned her head back and closed her eyes.

Macayla walked through the hospital straight towards her mothers' office. When she got to the door she opened it not bothering to knock. Inside she saw that her mom appeared to be asleep.

"Mom," Cuddy stirred, opening her eyes, to see her daughter standing over her.

"Hey Mac," Cuddy replied getting up to give her daughter a hug.

"How's dad? I want to see him."

"Your Fathers going to be fine, surgery went well, he's still unconscious but he should be waking up very soon. Come on I'll take you to see him." Cuddy started to make her way to the door but stopped when she reached it.

"Wait… Wilson wanted me to call him when you got here, just a second." Walking back to her desk she picked up her phone and dialed Wilson's pager. The page she left read, "Macs Here." Then she put down the phone and motioned for her daughter to follow her.

They walked down the halls of the hospital in silence. The silence was soon interrupted by the beeping of Cuddy's pager. Checking it she read it carefully then looked over at Macayla.

"He's awake." She said, and both mother and daughter couldn't help the smiles that were forming on there faces.

When they arrived at Houses room Cuddy told Macayla to stay out of sight for a minute wanting her arrival to be a surprise. Cuddy walked into the room to find House, Cameron, Chase and Foreman discussing who the man who tried to kill him was and what House could have done to make someone that insanely angry.

"Hey Cuddy, did you come here to make sure I was alright, you really shouldn't have, but thank you for coming in the top, you really made a crippled mans day." Even after being shot, House still had a mouthful of sarcasm. Ignoring Houses statement she walked over to the side of his bed, checking his monitors and IV bags. Then she looked back over at him.

"I have a surprise for you!"

"A surprise for me… oh you shouldn't have, okay let me guess… is it money," Cuddy shock her head. "No, is it a hooker," again Cuddy shook her head. "Not that either… oh oh I know is it a pony, I've always wanted a pony."

"It is better then a pony." Cuddy replied and Macayla took that as her cue to enter.

"Hey Dad," House looked towards the door. His teams' heads also turned towards the door at this statement.

"Hey McMac," House responded as Macayla made her way over to him. Careful not to hurt him she leaned over and gave him a hug, as they pulled apart he gave her a kiss on her forehead.

The ducklings just sat there stunned that House could be so warm and loving to another person. Just then there thoughts were interrupted as Wilson came through the door.

"What is this a party," Wilson said with his famous boyish smile. This caused Macayla to turn around.

"Uncle Jimmy!" and she ran over to give him a hug.

"Mac, Look at you!" he said as the let go of each other.

"Okay, the reunions nice and all but she came here to see me, not you… gosh get your own daughter." House said with a hint of sarcasm and annoyance.

Macayla and Wilson just looked at each other and rolled there eyes. Ignoring her fathers' statement she turned to Wilson.

"So Uncle Jimmy, how are you?"

"I'm doing okay."

"I heard about you and Julie, I'm sorry."

"Thanks, but I'm fine."

"Uncle Jimmy what's your lucky number?"

"Seven, why?" he asked her with a very curious look on his face.

"Well all you have to do is get married four more times and the fourth one will stick."

"Ha Ha, very funny." Wilson said, pretending to be hurt.

"Who said anything about joking, I'm being completely serious." Everyone else in the room couldn't help but snicker at the young adults' comments toward the Oncologist.

"Oh and try staying away from women who's names start with "J" I mean don't get me wrong the whole having the same first initial as your spouse is cute and all, but it doesn't seem to be working for you."

"That's what I've been trying to tell him, but does he listen to me no!" House cut in.

"Yeah, but since Macayla suggested it, I will listen to her." "So House how are you feeling?" Wilson asked in attempt to take the focus off of Him.

"Like I've just been shot." The Ducklings, Wilson, Cuddy and Macayla all looked at the Him and rolled their eyes.
