Cameron was doing some gels in the lab and hiding from House. Give him some time to cool off until she could continue with the prank was the plan, but until then, Cameron opted to just hide until things blew over. That was when someone slid into a seat next to her.

"Hello Cameron," The voice she dreaded greeted.

"Hi House," She greeted back nervously.

"When will kids learn that playing pranks on their boss is insufficient because they are more likely to find out than anything else," House commented looking for a reaction.

He indeed got his wish for she went from her normal color to a chalky white and looked like she was going to throw up at any second. Her startled expression was way to exciting but House knew he hadn't come for this.

"I have a preposition for you," House told her as she wiped at her forehead and tucked several hairs behind her ear.

"What is it," She asked.

"We're going to play a prank," House answered a little to excitedly.

"What!" She gasped.

"I mean it is on Chase, who as you might know started this whole prank and even I'm impressed that his plan worked for this long considering," House stopped arubtly.

"How much vicodin you had," Cameron asked with a gulp.

"That doesn't matter. You will do the prank. Oh I know I'm forgetting something, yeah, Chase quit," House faked regret.

Cameron was shocked as she listened to House's little preposition. She'd just have to play along.


"You think this will work," Foreman asked when House came back.

"It has to or I'll have to interview two new people," House remarked.

"Why two," Wilson asked.

"Because Cameron will quit out of guilt. Sad really but I can't help it that she has really mushy feelings," House answered turning on general hospital.

"But how would you know that it will actually work," Wilson continued.

"Chase is really gullable. He may have had a ten minute backbone, but he's gotten it from Cameron and the fact that he thought she didn't love him. He will be hunky dory when Cameron is done with him or I get to do two new interviews which is a wast of time and best not happen," the other two stared at him dumbfounded.

"Okay I have now and again have been unfortunate to ramble," House defended.

They rolled their eyes and House continued to watch his favorite television show.


Cameron hesitated and then rapped her hand on the door. It took several minutes but then Chase did answer the door.

"Hello, Cameron?" Chase greeted suspiciously.

"I'm not doing this prank anymore," Cameron started off.

"Yeah I know," Chase answered.

Cameron gulped and then grabbed his face to hers and kissed him passionately. Chase ended it with a big look of suprise on his face.

"Cameron," He started.

"I wanta have your baby," Cameron stated.

Chase gaped at her and was about to shut the door on her but she slid in preventing him from doing so.

"Is this a joke," Chase asked. "If it is then it's over. I bet House sent you to do this because he hates me and I told him off," Chase was cut off from his rambling by Cameron pressing him against the wall and kissing him again.

"Even if House did send me I still would have went without his word. I love you Chase, it may have took me a long time to figure this out but I LOVE YOU!" Cameron shouted the last part realization dawning on her.

"Cameron..." Chase was at a loss of words that he just gaped at her.

"Chase," Cameron said.

"Yeah," Chase asked.

"Just shut up and kiss me," Cameron ordered.

Chase happily complied.


It was long after hours and mostly every single person went home. Even the visitors had been long gone for a couple hours now, but House sat there twirling his cane and waiting for something as was Wilson.

"Do you know that when you are indeed proved wrong, I get fifty bucks," Wilson told him breaking the silence.

"Save that for when I'm right," House corrected.

"You can't be always right, that would be a curse," Wilson commented.

"But on the up side it will be a gift also," House drawled.

"You're seriously going to waithere all night until you're sure aren't you," Wilson asked and added, " Chase is right about something, you can't just leave a puzzle unsolved."

"I can too," House argued. "Let's go, drinks on you."

"Thanks alot," Wilson grumbled but smiled anyways.

It was when they were at the car when House stopped in his tracks.

"I forgot something," House said.

"What's that," Wilson asked curiously.

"My cellphone," House answered entering.

When he grabbed it he heard the echo of his phone ringing in the office. He smiled and went to go answer it.

"Hello..."
