Last Time:

Cameron signed the paperwork to get Charlotte and the rest Danny's possessions.


"Foreman, you don't say anything to anyone about us being together." House said as the two walked through the parking lot.

"The only reason you're saying that is because everyone will know that you're under my thumb in this relationship."

"Har. Har. Har. I'm going to tell Cuddy now. I'll see you later." House turned to walk to Cuddy's office, while Foreman took the stairs.


"House, where have you been? You should have been in the clinic." Cuddy ambushed him before getting close to her office. It was like she had taped a tracking device in his cane.

"A lawyer came looking for Cameron, so I took him to her place."

"And you couldn't just give him her address?"

"Can we take this into your office?" House asked.

"Why? What are you going to tell me that you and Cameron are together and you got all jealous and didn't want her alone with the guy?"

"Half right."

"Oh my God, get in my office." She stated as she stalked towards her office.

"Which half is true?" she demanded once the office door was closed.

"Cameron and I have been seeing each other for close to 7 months."

"And how is it that in this rumor mill that no one knew?"

"We were very discreet and we don't do anything here that can be deemed unprofessional. Which was pretty hard for me especially, seeing as I'm the most professional guy that ever did profession. Foreman's the only one who knows. Cameron spilled the beans earlier."

"He was with you?"

"Yeah, there was a part I left out; Cameron now has custody of her niece. So I had Foreman bring both of them to her apartment."

"Please tell me he found out in a gentler manner than this/

"Well, Allison-I mean Dr. Cameron-kind of yelled it from the kitchen when our behavior confused him."

"Great. Did you leave any marks on Dr. Foreman? Any permanent mental scars that the hospital will have to compensate for?"

"Possibly, he overheard Allison making a comment about me taking her temperature."

"Oh my God, get out. I don't want to see or hear from you the rest of the day."

"I'll be in the clinic. I promised Cameron that I would be a good boy, so I could take that temperature of hers."

"Out, get out of my office!"


"What took you so long to come back?" Chase asked Foreman as he took a seat in the conference room.

"I helped Jason carry up some of Charlotte's things, then House and I stopped for lunch on the way back."

"What did you and House have to talk about?"

"Not a lot." Foreman hedged.

"I'll bet."

"I'm going to do my clinic hours, since we don't have a patient and I don't need Cuddy on my back to do them later." Foreman grabbed his lab coat and stethoscope and made a speedy exit before Chase could ask him any specifics. He didn't want House or Cameron on his ass for telling Chase. And he didn't want Chase on his ass for not telling him sooner.


"This is not where I thought that I would find you." Wilson said as he entered exam 3.

"How did you know I wouldn't be with a patient?"

"Because the clinic is empty and apparently has been for some time."

"What time is it?"

"Almost 5."

"I gotta go. I have a thing I'm doing tonight."

"Are you dating someone or moon lighting? Cause we haven't gone out for a drink in a while and you haven't had me come over for take out in months. Your mood has slightly improved too. Don't get me wrong you can still scare the crap out or anyone, but you seem...lighter."

"Let me get back to you on that."

"Greg, it's not a hard question." Wilson followed him on to the elevator.

"Yes, well it's a need-to-know basis."

"I'm your best friend. How am I not need-to-know?"

"You gossip, ok? There are some things that don't need to be floating around the hospital and this is one of them."

"I still don't know how you can't tell me." Wilson looked up just as Foreman entered the room. "Foreman, what's House's secret?"

"I don't know what you're talking about. What secret?" Foreman asked, trying to play it cool.

"The one about House moon lighting being the reason that we don't go out any more." Wilson told him.

"I don't think that-." House cut him off

"How's this: Foreman you taking temperatures for quite sometime." Foreman literally shuttered.

"What the hell was that?" Wilson looked between House and Foreman.

"Ok, Duckling, tell the good doctor why I won't share this."

"People gossip, all it takes it one person to over hear and that's it."

"You told him to say that did you?" Wilson accused.

"Nope, he's just one smart ducky. If you'll excuse me now I have a phone call to make. Quack amoungst yourselves." House made his escape while Wilson was still trying to figure out what Foreman knew and House wasn't sharing.


"You know I noticed something today. Neither you or Jason mentioned anything about a funeral for your brother." House said holding Cameron tighter as they sat on his couch and watched Charlotte sleep in her play pen.

"There isn't going to be a funeral. I suppose my parents will have some sort of memorial service. Danny is going to be cremated and he wants-wanted-me to decide what to do with them." Her voice faltered at mentioning her brother in the past-tense.

"What about you? When you die where do you want to go?"

"I never could decide. I was never a big traveler so I couldn't say I want someone to climb this mountain or go to this beach and sprinkle me. I'm still not set on being cremated. What about you? Where do you want to be?"

"I guess should I not have a wife or someone permanent I'd be buried next to my parents. But I know that if I have someone I'll be buried with them."

"That's sweet. You're going soft." Cameron told him softly and gives him a peck on the cheek.

"Well, I'm only sweet when it comes to you and you know it."

The two continued to sit snuggly in the couch watching the little girl sleep when there was a knock on the door.

"I'll get it, it's probably just Wilson. He's trying to figure out if I'm dating or if I'm moonlighting."

"I'm going to go hide then. We could have some fun with this." Before she left the room she gave House a big kiss.

House finally answered the door, just as Wilson was about to yell.

"Hey, what's going on?" House asked.

"Nothing, I just thought that if you were dating someone I could meet them. Since you know, we're not at the hospital where people can hear us. Whoa! Did you kidnapp a patient's kid or something!"

"How do you know that I'm not babysitting?"

"No one likes you enough to leave their kid with you. You call them snot nosed brats, why would you baby sit?"

"Hey Greg, I think we're out of condoms," Cameron called from down the hall. "Oh, Wilson I didn't know you were here." She told him as he was still gaping like a fish.

"Honey, I think you scared him a little." House chuckled.

"You guys are dating. And Cameron has a kid. Excuse me, I'm just going to recheck my lottery card..."

"Yes, we're dating and as of today I have a child." Cameron told him.

"As of today?" Wilson asked, clearly confused.

"My brother passed away yesterday and he named me her guardian."

"I'm sorry. I didn't know. No one said anything to me." He turned to glare at House.

"Thank you. I don't know how you couldn't know, I wasn't at work today. You didn't miss me?"

"I had a lot of appointments today, I didn't get out much," Wilson defended his lack of observation. "I'm going to go now. I was just worried what House was doing-I just going to stop there and leave. I'll see you tomorrow."

"Nope, Cuddy gave me a few days off to be with Cameron, who's off the rest of the week. So I'll see you Friday, unless we get a patient."

"Ok I'll see you guys later and we're going to discuss your new child." He closed the door behind himself, before Wilson could remark on the child comment.
