Once Cameron had had the appendix removed, she sewed up the sight with what she was able to find and that happened to be thread. She usually didn't do something like that but this little adventure had her doing a lot of things that she normally would not do. She administered a low dose of some type of painkiller hoping it was just that and that it would keep him away from any pain until they were found.
"Cameron," Chase called out.
Cameron looked over and smiled.
"Yes Chase," she asked.
"I love ya," Chase said.
Cameron smiled. She didn't know what she gave him, but it made him especially giddy and his behavior was odd. Maybe it was just odd to her because she had never ever seen Chase with his guard down. He always had walls so incredibly thick between him and anyone else that she never got to see the real him until now. She turned to the new mother.
"How is she," Cameron asked.
"She's fine and would you believe it or not I think I already have a name. If it was a boy I would have named him Princeton, but now that I know it is a girl, I'm going to name her Princess," She said with the smile.
"That's a pretty name,"Cameron commented.
She hoped House found them soon because she didn't know what to do and she couldn't stand to be here any longer. Three people needed a hospital and this place looked like it was well hidden. She sighed and looked over to Chase again who looked way out of it. A thought came to her and she dreaded what she believed she already knew. It must have been some kind of drug she accidently gave him, but it at least helped with his pain whereas the ibuprofen didn't.
"Are you two together," the mother asked.
"Sorta," Cameron asked a little reluctant.
"You two make a great couple, you know. When I met Bill, I knew instantly that we would be together and here we are," the mother continued.
Cameron nodded. She didn't feel that way when she had first met him because she had thought that he hadn't wanted anything to do with anyone. It had been clear in his behavior and then she came to realize that she didn't even know him. It was like he didn't want to get hurt. Then she had used him for that night when she was hopped up on meth and hadn't thought of the consequences it would cause. Maybe House was right, Cameron thought. She married her husband because he was lonely and he was dying all alone. She then dated House because he was damaged. She knew Chase was damaged and she knew that he would come if she had called and then took advantage of him.
"Cameron," Chase called again.
Cameron looked over to him.
"You look pretty," he said with a laugh.
Cameron put a hand on her forehead and sighed. She was now convinced that it was indeed some drugs left over from some doctor who had a bad habit.
"So how are we going to get them if the elevator is empty and they're missing," Foreman asked.
They were back in the conference room and trying to see where they could have gone to. House was twirling his cane and leaning against the table while Wilson was sitting in a chair.
"Maybe they're invisible," House commented.
"House this isn't the time," Wilson said annoyed. "For all we know, they could have went through a vent and into some strange place."
"Hold that thought and get me the floor plans of the whole hospital," House said.
Foreman rolled his eyes.
"Trying to send us on mindless errands to amuse you," he asked.
"As fun as that seems, no. See you haven't seen the hold building or the old medical center that had been broken down because a doctor decided that booze and heroin was better than his practicing medicine," House explained.
"That's right. Part of it is still there. Some rooms at least and they are asessed through-"
"The vents, yeah," House interrupted Wilson's musings.
Foreman quickly went over to Cuddy's office and knocked. She looked up and so did a couple that were in there as well.
"We need the floor plan it's important," Foreman said slightly put off.
"Whatever House needs it's going to have to wait," Cuddy said dismissing him.
Foreman wouldn't give up that easy.
"But two of our co-workers went into one of the vents we think," Foreman blurted out.
"WHAT!!!!!!" Cuddy yelled. "Sorry but we have an emergency, please see my secretary to rescedule."
She followed Foreman out and to the conference room in a mad rage. When she arrived, both men looked up.
"Oh great, now you include her. Sorry if I sound rude, but she doesn't find this as funny as everyone else does," House remarked.
"Yeah you're right about that, but I'm sure everybody else is serious about this too," Cuddy said.
"So we go up to the elevator or we send someone in the vents to check it out," Wilson interrupted to ask.
"No we are going to put an incredibally big hole in the wall, okay," Cuddy explained.
The two men Cuddy got to break it down were more than eager to as long as it was for a good cause and everyone knew that it was. So as they broke down the wall leading to the medical center; House, Wilson, Foreman, and Cuddy overseen it.
"Geese, and I thought that repairman was slow," House complained.
All of them looked at him and he wisely shut up for a moment. But not too long later, he continued.
"Hurry up, I bet my grandmother can do this," House continued.
They rolled their eyes and finally the two men got through to the other side.
"Wow," Foreman exclaimed.
"I wouldn't be too excited, the building was ugly," House commented.
They went down a long hall and eventually found them after all this time. House secretly hoped that she still had the results of their tests and didn't lose it. Cuddy on the other hand was trying to get Cameron to explain what happened but she didn't get anything other than that they needed to be in the hospital and that the mother and her child were in good health. Chase she explained probably needed a little longer because he had a appedectomy and had a small dose of heroin by accident. Cuddy gave her a look that said they would talk later and left.
House looked at her amused before leaving to. It was safe to say that everyone had learned a lesson today and it was ironic that he wasn't the one teaching them this time. He shrugged and followed Cameron as she stayed near the stretcher that was carrying a lucid but really out of it Chase. Everyone had a lesson to learn and they would learn it whether they liked it or not.
A/N: Only one more and that would be the epilogue. Hope you like this chapter and review to tell me how you think. They are a big encouragement. Thank You.
