A/N: Just imagine the credits are rolling and this is the little clip they show down the side to wrap things up. My mind jump to Ferris Bueller's Day Off and Stuart Little, except without the music (unless you want some).
Epilogue
The hospital was all dark and silent. A few doctors and nurses strolled around the corridors, attending to patients.
There was nobody on the second floor. House and Cuddy walked slowly down the hall, holding hands.
House smiled at Cuddy. He stopped limping and turned around to face her in the middle of the corridor.
"I love you," he said.
Cuddy moved closer to him. She lifted a hand and stroked his hair. He closed his eyes and sighed into her touch.
"I love you too," she said.
She kissed him on the cheek and then on the forehead and then on the other cheek. He kissed her full on the lips.
They entangled each other in their arms and kissed more deeply.
House spotted the janitor's closet between kisses.
"Just for old time's sake," he breathed.
Cuddy smiled.
They continued to kiss, moving slowly towards the door.
Cuddy impatiently stripped House of his jacket.
She moved her hands over his chest, feeling him through his shirt. Then she wrapped her arms around his waist and pulled him closer to her, kissing him even deeper, if that was possible.
House took his hand away from Cuddy for a second and fumbled with the door handle. He finally managed to throw open the door. It was then that he noticed something was already going on in there. He stopped kissing Cuddy and pulled away from her face to see what it was. His eyes went suddenly wide which made Cuddy look to see as well.
Among all the mops and buckets, Chase and Cameron were making out. They were both wearing labcoats still and they both jumped violently and turned around to see House gaping at them. Both of them, especially Cameron, took in what was happening in the doorway.
She raised her eyebrows very high when she saw the frozen image. Cuddy was in the middle of pulling at the buttons on House's shirt and her leg was cocked up against House's body. The hospital administrator looked mortified to see Chase and Cameron there.
She carefully lowered her leg and let go of House's shirt.
Then the awkward silence was broken by House. He burst out laughing. He doubled over with the hilarity of it.
Chase raised an eyebrow and Cameron took the opportunity to let go of Chase and compose herself properly.
"We'll go somewhere else," House decided, grinning. And he slammed the door on them.
He turned to Cuddy.
"How about… your office?" he pressed her.
"All right," she agreed readily.
House picked up his jacket and they walked away together, House's big arm around Cuddy.
As they reached the end of the corridor he kissed her hair.
"Love you," he said.
"Love you," she retorted.
Then they disappeared around the corner.
THE END
Ž
House and Cuddy will return. (When I think of some more ideas.)
A/N: I hope you liked this little story. Well, actually it turned out to be quite long. Even I wasn't expecting that. I love writing fanfic and maybe I'll write some more. I'm going away this week, but I've got a sprained ankle, so I'll take my notebook with me and see what I come up with.
