-1Thanks everyone for reading and leaving your reviews.

There is something I should point out…..now, when Wilson introduced House's parents to Cuddy and Cameron, Cuddy said, "it's good to meet you." I've gotten some comments from another site and they were curious why Cuddy never met House's parents, especially after 20 years. Well, she hasn't met his parents. True, House and Cuddy have been friends for 20 years but she has NEVER met his parents. Sorry if I confused y'all.

CHAPTER SEVEN - Never Do A Friend a Favor

After John brings coffee to his wife they sit and watch their son sleeping peacefully for about an hour. They decide to head back to House's apartment to rest before the return later that afternoon. They walk through the lobby and notice Cuddy sitting behind her desk in her office. They walk through the hospital doors and head to the parking lot. Blythe suddenly stops and turns to her husband.

"Oh, John, I left something in Greg's room. Get the car. I'll only be five minutes." He nods and watches her walk back in then turns to get their rental car.

She walks through the lobby but instead of heading to the elevators to Greg's room she heads straight to Cuddy's office. She taps on the glass door and Cuddy looks up from her papers, waving Blythe in with a smile.

"Hi, Mrs. House. What can I do for you?" Cuddy asks, a little surprised that she's in her office.

"Dr. Cuddy, well, I don't want to mention anything behind John's back, but…" she stops herself for a moment before Cuddy continues.

"Mrs. House, what happened to Hou…Greg…shouldn't have happened at all. I take full responsibility for what happ…"

"No, no, you don't understand. You've known Greg for many years. He's always talked about you. The truth is, I think Greg was just too embarrassed to have you meet his father because of the way he can be sometimes. John has always pestered Greg about why he never married.

"Anyway, I'm really concerned about Greg. He's always been a little…distant but it's gotten worse. We only see him once every few years but do catch up on the phone. Well, he and I do. The past few years I've noticed he's gotten more into his shell and I'm truly concerned about him. I don't see the light in his eyes that I used to. Do you have any idea what's going on with him?"

Cuddy sits behind her desk and leans back in her chair, thinking, quickly, but seriously. She stands and approaches Blythe, who never did sit down.

"Mrs. House, there's something I think it's time you know something about Greg," she says as she leads Blythe to the couch and they both sit down.

Wilson is still sitting at his desk after Cameron's brusque departure wondering what the whole conversation was about and why she had overreacted as she did. He raises his arms in the air and stretches then tells himself he should maybe check on House.

Just as the door closes behind him his pager goes off and he looks at it, curses then runs to House's room. As he turns the corner there is no activity in the room, just a still House lying on the bed. He briskly walks in and heads toward the bed, seeing that House is awake he relaxes.

"Why in the hell did you page me with an emergency? Are you insane now?" he asks, putting his hands on his hips and glares at his friend.

"Wilson, you need to do me a favor."

"I don't need to do anything, not after that stunt you just pulled," Wilson says angrily.

House sighs and looks at Wilson with pleading eyes. "Mom said you gave her the key and they're staying there."

"Well, yeah, they're your parents. It's not like you're going to be there. Your bike is parked in the garage to keep the bird droppings off of it."

"No, it's not that. I think I left something sitting out that I don't want…" his voices trails off.

"I stayed there last night because I left so late and it's closer than my apartment. I didn't see anything sitting out."

"You didn't see a grey tool box on my dresser?" he asks, starting to sound weak from the excitement he is putting himself through.

Wilson thinks for a minute and says, "no, I don't think so. I slept on the couch. You have hooker cooties in your bed. Why?"

"My parents just left. I woke up after Dad brought Mom coffee. I waited until they left to page you. I need you to get there to hide it. Knowing Dad he'll look through everything I have." House grimaces with pain as he stretches his leg and it pulls at the stitches in his stomach.

"You've got the keys to the bike. They were in the duffle bag with the house key. Take that set. You'll make it there quicker."

"House, there is no way in hell I'm going to ride your bike!" Wilson protests.

"You've got to! God, they can't find it," he says as he turns his head and closes his eyes.

Through the years they've known each other, he has never seen House in this bad a position. Sure, there were pretty bad ones, but this takes the cake. He knew from the tox screen there was morphine in his system, and neither Cuddy nor Wilson gave it to him.

"Fine. But you owe me, owe me BIG."

"Thanks," House mutters as his breathing becomes slower and he drifts off to sleep.

Almost ten minutes later Wilson has just sat on the bike and notices House's parents driving past on the main road outside the parking garage. He quickly turns on the ignition and races out of the parking lot, surprised at just how powerful the bike really is.

It takes him less than 15 minutes to get two blocks away from House's apartment and he's sitting at a red light of a major intersection waiting to turn left. He hears sirens in the background and it takes him a second to ascertain which direction they are coming from. He sees flashing red lights to his left then notices a speeding car leading them.

As the car gets closer to the intersection he sees the speeding car skid a little then the tires grip the road. The driver makes a sudden right turn and again loses control, heading straight for him. Wilson realizes his predicament but he doesn't react quick enough to get out of the way.

The next thing he knows he is launched forward over the handlebars of the bike, flips over onto the hood of the car and then is violently rolled off onto the pavement as the car continues to head down the street. He lands hard and it feels to him as if every bone in his body has just broken.

It sounds to him as if the sirens are right on top of him but then the screeching slowly fades away, as does his sense of what's just happened to him as he sinks into unconsciousness.

Was Wilson just killed by the speeding car trying to do his best friend a major favor?

Will Cuddy actually tell House's parents about his Vicodin and morphine addictions?

What ever happened to Chase chasing after Cameron?

Well, I'll figure all that out when I start typing again:o)

Check back again real soon.
