Disclaimer: I own nothing, but the storyline. If I owned House, would I be sat here writing this fan fic?

This is a sequel to You Found Me. You Brought Me To Life. If you haven't read it, you probably wont understand this one ok? So go read the first one first!

Chapter Eleven

Two weeks later and Cameron had settled back into her home life, she hadn't realised how much she missed them all until she had returned. Turning over in her bed she looked at the ceiling, her arms spread out to the side and she ran one through her hair sighing. Looking out of the window for a moment she felt a weird twist in her stomach, she had known it was today, but she had tried to push it from her mind.

The door creaked open and she looked at the clock. 6.30am. She grinned as her brothers dishevelled face popped around the door, he grinned evilly when he saw she was awake and ran bounding onto the bed and began to jump. She curled into a ball to protect herself, groaning.

"Zach stop it I'm going to be sick." He took one last jump and fell next to her on the bed.

"Your old."

"Thank you Zach, such kind words."

He laughed. "Its true, soon you'll be thirty! Then forty! Then fifty!"

"I'm only twenty eight."

"So? Still old."

"No just older than you." She poked him in his side and he laughed planting a kiss on her cheek.

"Happy birthday sis."

She sat up in bed and he pulled her hair. "OW! Zach!"

"Sorry, it's just so long."

"Yeah funny that isn't it, hair grows." She stood up. "I'm getting a shower!"

"No! You can't, it's your birthday you need to have a birthday breakfast before you get ready."

"I'm not eight anymore." He smiled.

"No your twenty eight, not that anyone would know it in those pyjamas."

She looked down at her light blue fluffy pyjamas with red flowers on. She shot him a death glare before walking out of her room.

"There best be pancakes."

He sat at his desk in the office reading the email for what must have been the hundredth time, scratching his unshaven face he pressed send. The email box closed as it sent her his message. He instantly regretted it; he never should have sent her it. Damn it they should just put a lock on his email then he could never send her these ridiculous emails. Wilson walked into his office at that precise moment, he looked down at his friend and House glared up at him.

"Stop looking at me like that, I don't need your sympathy."

"I wasn't giving you any." Wilson sat down opposite him.

"Yes you were."

"Ok maybe I was, I'm sorry for caring. How are you holding up?"

"Perfectly fine. Its just a birthday." House began to throw up his oversized tennis ball and catch it again. "I don't suppose you're interested in buying two tickets to see Ashlee Simpson are you?"

"You don't like Ashlee Simpson."

"Well obviously I don't but Cameron did."

Wilson sighed, House had changed he would never do this for anyone other than Cameron. Buy two tickets to see an artist he doesn't like just because she does. House banged the tennis ball onto the table loudly.

"Stop sighing!" he looked at Wilson. "Would you just leave?"

Wilson stood up and walked to the door before turning.

"House she is gone, she left. But that doesn't mean you have to give up on her. Do us all a favour and find her, I don't think anybody can stand anymore of your moping." With that he left an angry House pondering his options.

Cameron sat down at the breakfast table that was laid out, her brother sat opposite her. Linda smiled at her as she placed a plate of pancakes in front of her draped in syrup. "Happy Birthday sweetie." Cameron smiled back at her mum pushing her hair behind her ears and picked up a fork digging into her pancakes.

"Thanks mum." She put her fork in her mouth and closed her eyes. "God these are great."

Zach looked at his mum who put two bacon toasties in front of him. "Thanks mum." Taking a bite he stared at his sister. "So what are your plans today?"

She shrugged munching through her breakfast. "I don't know, don't have any really."

Her brother grinned at her. "Good. Then we will go into town, and you can chose your present…"

She interrupted him. "You haven't bought me a present?"

"No. I mean I didn't know what to get you, so you can just pick out what you like and I'll buy it, then I know you like it." Cameron nodded and then he carried on. "We can just hang out, then, tonight, we can go get legless."

Cameron stared at her brother. "I don't think I want to go out and get drunk Zach."

"Noooo come on you have to, we always have the best time and we haven't been out in donkeys years." She looked down at her little brother and nodded.

"Ok fine." Finishing up her breakfast she sat back in her chair, her father came and stood next to her mother both of them smiling down at her, getting a little freaked out she laughed. "What?"

Her mother handed her a black box with a gold ribbon wrapped around it while her father passed her a card. Opening the card first she smiled seeing winnie the pooh on the front, and her smile grew as she read the inside.

To our darling daughter, time may have separated us but we are so happy to have you back now, we just wish it were under different circumstances. Ever since you were a little girl you always made us proud and I think now we are the proudest parents ever. You have grown into a wonderful, beautiful young woman and you deserve to find your happiness. We love you with all our heart and will always be here for you. Happy Birthday Alison.

All our love

Mum and Dad.

Looking up at her parents she smiled and nodded a thank you. Turning her attention to the black box she opened it gently and gasped as she saw what lay in it. A wonderful silver necklace with a teardrop diamond hanging at the end, she gently fingered the piece of jewellery and her father said.

"It was your grandmothers, we thought it was about time you wore it."

She felt tears sting her eyes. "Its beautiful." Her mother smiled at her and finally took the box from Cameron.

"Go get ready, have a shower and let Zach take you out."

Cameron stared at her mum and dad, standing she hugged them both before running upstairs for a shower.

Twenty-five minutes later Zach made his way up the stairs, his sister's door was slightly open and he could see her sat on her bed, her laptop in front of her. He heard her sigh deeply and paused at her door just watching her.

Cameron had got dressed after her shower, and sat on her bed. On her bed side table was a picture of her and her high school sweetheart Josh. Staring at it for a moment she then grabbed her laptop. Turning it on and opening up her pictures she started to look through the pictures of herself and House. She felt a sadness tug at her heart and was about to turn off the computer when a popup flashed on at the bottom corner of her screen. "You have mail." Without thinking about it she clicked on the pop up and an email opened. Reading the address line she sighed deeply, it was from him. House. Turning her attention to the actual email she felt a sort of bitter happiness after reading it.

"Happy Birthday."

So simple but so touching, she knew she loved him and he loved her, even though he had only said it once, but she didn't think she was strong enough to return. Hearing a noise from behind her she snapped the laptop shut and turned around. Seeing her brother she relaxed slightly, he smiled at her.

"You ready?"

She nodded and left the bed, leaving the laptop where it was, walking past her brother down the stairs. Zach paused for a moment staring at the laptop before following her.
