Today Was
The Other Side
Monday was a question.
Cameron looked at Chase questioningly. He knew exactly why; she'd always been able to tell when he'd had a... good time over the weekend. He wondered if she ever thought about their own time together; he'd be lying if he said it hadn't been hot, although he'd always wished it had happened another way. He also wondered what would have happened if she'd known he liked men, too.
Tuesday was a story.
Wilson's story normally wouldn't have been as funny as it was, but Chase couldn't help but laugh at it; he'd had a great date the night before, and was in an insufferably good mood. He was the most honestly happy he'd been in a long time; he shouldn't have, he thought, avoided dating men since his last relationship with one.
Wednesday was an inquisition.
Cuddy cornered Chase after lunch, her curiosity enflamed by his reticence to discuss the change in his life. Chase almost found more enjoyment in avoiding her questions than he was finding in his new relationship.
Thursday was a surprise.
Foreman's shock at Chase's new gloves was a surprise the younger doctor. He hadn't realised how low of a personal opinion Foreman had of him, and was glad of the chance to help readjust the other doctor's thoughts.
Friday was a patient.
House's deft hands sewed up the patient's chest; Chase's smile deepened at the thought that they were finished. "Happy to be going to see him?" House asked. "You're done for the day. Feel free to head off." He smirked. "I'll have Cameron cover your clinic hours."
Saturday was a kiss.
Michael replied, "You'll definitely see me tonight. I'll see you at the restaurant at seven." He waved to Chase as he walked out the doors.
Chase walked back to the clinic, but before he could enter the doors, Cameron grabbed him. "A guy?" Chase nodded. "But you're straight!"
"No, I like girls." He grinned. "I never said I didn't like guys as well." He shrugged her hand off his shoulder, and, smiling back at Cameron, waved cheerfully to her as he walked through the clinic doors.
