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 Thirteen
Zach held open the door to the bar to let Cameron enter. She walked into the room wearing her new low hip hugging jeans and a tight black top that had a very small caption wrote on her breasts. Her hair was pulled back into a ponytail with only a couple of strands framing her face. Zach followed her in and they went and sat at the bar.
"Beer and double vodka and coke." Zach said to the bar tender that nodded. After receiving their drinks they looked around the bar, it was smoky and smelt of the sweet smell of hay, mixed with sweat, ale and tobacco. Cameron inhaled deeply.
"This place hasn't changed."
"Yeah. You up for playing pool?"
She nodded drinking her drink. "Yeah! I haven't kicked you butt at pool in ages."
"Well, I wouldn't get your hopes up. I'm an extremely good player now."
She scoffed. "I bet I could still kick your ass."
"Come on then girly. Fifty."
He jumped off his stool and she followed suite, making their way over to the pool table they managed to jump the line and started to play. Half an hour later Cameron laughed throwing down her cue and grabbing the fifty bucks her brother was holding out rather bitterly.
"Oh don't be a sore loser, you knew I'd win. Do you want another beer?"
"Sure. I'm going for a pee."
He left and Cameron laughed at his moping and made her way to the bar. Ordering their drinks she was shocked to feel a presence behind her and a hand on her back. Turning her shocked face turned into a huge smile.
"Josh!"
"Alison is that you?" The young man hugged her.
"Yeah! How have you been?" She stood back from the hug to look at the man in front of her; he had been the first man to have her heart, her high school sweetheart josh.
But he wasn't a boy anymore. He had hair that was just below his ear a firm jaw line, smooth face and a slight beard. Yet his eyes were the same, the twirling green and brown that had always fascinated her. He had been talking but she hadn't really been listening but carried on smiling and nodding but was broke out of her daydream by her brother returning. Josh smacked him on the back.
"Zach! You didn't tell me Alison was home."
"I've only been home a few days."
He nodded and as she went to pay for the drinks he held out his money first and she blushed. "Thanks."
"Your welcome."
Sipping her drink she saw Zach sneak off to some other guys and start a drinking game, she turned her attention back to Josh. "So what have you been doing with your life? Married yet?"
He laughed. "Hell no! You always held my heart Alison, and you broke it moving away to medical school. That's right, I should call you Dr Alison."
This time it was her turn to laugh. "No Alison is just fine. And I'm sorry for breaking your heart. How can I make it up to you?" She laughed out with mock seriousness.
Josh smiled at her. "How about we just catch up on old times and have a good time tonight? That will do just fine."
She nodded. "I can do that."
MDHouse sat at his computer staring absently at the screen, Cuddy has just left she had been giving him another grilling about hiring another duckling, another replacement for Cameron. Yet this email he had just received told him he didn't have to worry about that. Rubbing his forehead with his thumb he read the email again.
House, this isn't Alison, this is Zach her brother. I have to be quick before she catches me. Dude she is dying without you, I don't know if you deserve her but what I do know is that she deserves for you to save her. I've heard what she's been through and it's going to be tough on anyone, but she needs you she cries herself to sleep at night calling out your name. She is broken.
Underneath was an address, which he assumed was where Cameron was staying. Thinking back to Wilson's words he wondered how much longer he himself could go on without her. He realised now that he loved her and he should have told her more often, he should have told her every day, every minute no matter who was around. He thought back to when Stacy had left him, he had been bitter and angry, now he was lonely and lost. Grabbing his cane he switched his computer off and grabbed his leather jacket. He was going to get her back.

Cameron huffed and puffed as her brothers arm draped around her neck, dragging him to the truck with the help of Josh she threw him into the back seat.
"I don't know why he bothers, he never wins drinking games."
Josh laughed and grabbed the keys from Cameron. "Let me drive, you've had a drink."
She pushed him away. "One. I'm perfectly fine to drive."
He held up his hands in surrender and slid into the passenger side while she fired up the engine. She pulled out of the parking spot and Zach muttered something from the back.
"The sea monkeys have my money."
Josh stared at him as Cameron snorted with laughter and Josh looked at her inquisitively. "Is that a quote from Finding Nemo?"
She nodded. "I think it is."
They laughed over it for a moment before they arrived home and once again with the help of Josh Cameron was able to drag her brother into the house and into his room without waking their parents. Back down at the front door Cameron looked at Josh.
"Do you want me to drive you home?"
"Nah I'm alright." He looked at her then to the sky then back at her "It's a beautiful night, do you want to go for a walk?"
She looked at him cocking an eyebrow then nodded; closing the door gently they set off across the fields. Walking in silence for a moment she shivered as a wind whipped up around their shoulders. He put a arm around her and pulled her into him close keeping her warm. She found herself staring at his chest and closed her eyes as she heard him whisper.
"I've missed you. I never stopped having feelings for you."
"Josh…." She looked up and was about to say something when she saw his beautiful eyes. Biting her lip she pushed him backwards and he fell to the ground on his back, lying next to him she raised herself slightly higher than him and was able to kiss him. He kissed her back and rolled over so that she had her back pressed against the hard ground while he kissed her. Her eyes snapped open as she heard his breathing get heavier and felt him tugging at her pants.
Unzipping them he pushed his hand inside them tracing her thighs. His lips had moved to her neck and were leaving a line of rough kisses on her. She bit her lip once more memories of the attack coming back, his kisses were the same, his hands just as rough, just as selfish. Pushing him off her she sat up and he looked at her.
"What's the matter?"
She turned to him and shook her head standing up. "I'm sorry, I can't do this. You should go home."
He stood up also. "Alison…."
"No. Josh I'm sorry, but no."
He nodded and walked away, standing watching his retreating back Cameron felt the wind chill her bones once more, and turning to the sky she sighed. She knew the real reason she had stopped him, it wasn't because it brought back memories of the attack, although that did play a part. The real reason was that he wasn't House, and that's whom she wanted. She needed him. Looking at the moon and stars she decided not to be afraid. She was going to go back, she needed to go back.
