I still remember that day when she was eighteen years old. It was the night of prom. She went with Jimmy. I remember because I gave him the talk. I told him if he hurt her or didn't have her back by four o'five the next morning then he'd have me to deal with
"Now Jimmy I want you to bring Mary home no later then five after four. Oh and if you hurt her in any way you'll have me to deal with," House said in a warning tone.
"Dad what are you doing?" Mary asked coming down the stairs.
"Nothing honey," House said turning towards his daughter.
By this point House hadn't seen her dress yet. Allison and she had went to go get it with House's money of course. Allison was the go to girl for Mary. If there was something that she didn't want to talk to her dad about she told Allison. Now depending on what it was Allison did tell House. Mary knew that he knew but she didn't care as long as he didn't bring it up and he usually didn't.
Mary's dress was a sky blue off the shoulders with a scarf around her arms. House thought that she was the prettiest thing in the world. He couldn't believe that his little girl had turned into a woman. He was having a hard time letting her go but he was starting to learn to slowly.
"Wow you look great," Jimmy said.
"Thanks," Mary said blushing.
"You look lovely," House said smiling at his daughter.
"Thanks dad," Mary said coming down the stairs the rest of the way.
"Ok picture time," House said limping over to the fireplace to grab the camera.
After House was done blinding them he let them leave but not before he sent a warring look to Jimmy. Later that night they came back to change before post prom. After they left they headed over to the high school where post prom was being held.
About a month after prom Mary started getting a cold..
"Mary what's wrong?" House asked seeing how pale his daughter was.
"Nothing I just must have the flu," Mary said.
"Are you sure?" House asked going over to her to check her head.
"Dad I said I'm fine," Mary said pulling back from him.
"Ok but if you get worse I will put you in the hospital," House said sternly.
"Yes I know dad," Mary said smiling at her dad.
"Have a good day," House said.
She was sick for awhile but then a couple of days later she seemed to be getting better. Little did I know that she wasn't really getting better. She was actually getting worse.
Little did I know life was about to change forever.
