Next Day:
Wilson walked into the lobby with the bag of items House requested. He wasn't sure what was going to happen next at the hospital with House out of commission for a while. He didn't even want entertain the possibility of House losing his eye sight. Things were going to change for House; it would have to no doubt.
Wilson turned the corner toward his room before heading on rounds. Something inside told him not to be surprised at what he saw, but James Wilson let out a small squeak. House was in bed – stroking Cameron's head. He smiled as he walked into the room. "Good Morning Greg, how do you feel today?" As Wilson finished, Cameron woke up. "Good morning Dr. Cameron, did you sleep well?" He questioned. Cameron didn't have a chance to answer. Dr Meyer came in. "How did you sleep last night?" House gave him thumbs up. "It's time to check the pressure, if everyone would step outside."
Cameron stood up. "House, I need to go home and change. I'll come back in a couple of hours. Can I bring you anything?" He smiled and squeezed her hand. She nodded to the doctors and left. Wilson said that he'd be right back. "Cameron!" She turned. "Thank you for watching over him last night. The nurses said that he behaved very well." Cameron blushed. "Tell him I'll bring him some lunch when I get back."
Cameron's apartment:
Cameron opened the door. Last night had been both a dream and a nightmare. The memories of her husband's fight with cancer, the long hours spent holding his hand, soothing his mind, helping him though his pain. Last night, she began a similar journey. Can I handle this? Can I go through this again? She had to convince herself that this wasn't the same. House wasn't going to die.
She took off her clothes and stepped into the shower. She was hoping the water would wash the stress away. Her mind was speeding. What will happen if House is blind? What would happen to the Department? What would happen to all of them?
Cameron had to focus on the positive, for him as well as her. Two hours later, Cameron was back in her car on the way back to the hospital.
