Drabble 54: Oral Fixation Part I

House was sucking on a lollipop, reading Forbes. Having sent Cameron, Foreman and Chase on another wild goose hunt, the pathologist was given plenty of time to do essentially nothing.

The lollipop was a good distraction and kept him from taking Vicodin. It was tempting to try both at once, however.

"Besides," he kept telling Chase when he insisted that too much candy would rot his teeth, "It's better than Vicodin."

Wilson took kindly to this new obsession. House caught his envious stares to the lollipop sometimes and a thought like that brought a whole new smile to Greg's face.

Fin.

(A/N: Another little series of insanity. I made up Cuddy's fixation, by the way.)
