Chapter 15: Double Trouble Friday

August 22,2005 5:00 P.M.

"Uh huh. Yep. I'm fine. I promise that I am fine. School's fine. Of course I'm doing good, duh. Yeah, she still lives in the same apartment. I like it here; I am slowly turning my room into a shrine for a multitude of rock bands. You would be proud of it. Of course, I had to set aside a spot for 'The Bangles' or else mom would have a fit. You should see it sometime." Hannah sighed, as she talked on her cell phone. Hannah's eyes widened and she sat up on the couch. "You're what? Whoa Whoa. Hold on a minute. Don't you dare hang up on me!" Hannah yelled in the phone, only getting a dead tone. "Dad? Daddy?" She asked in a small voice.

Hannah sat on the couch, staring at her cell phone. "Oh dear."

Hannah put her phone back in her purse and flopped back on the couch. Now, she had to tell her mom that dad was coming for a visit in a few days. Oh, well. It could wait. She still had a few days until he got here; let's just concentrate on having fun tonight.

"Ok. How does this look?" Allison said, coming in to the living room to show off her outfit. She was wearing 3 inch black heels with a mid-length khaki skirt and a maroon crew neck.

"Jeez, don't you have anything fun in that closet?" Hannah whined, looking at her mom. Hannah just sighed at her mother's blank stare. "I just don't see how you can even try to date someone that wears a rolling stones t-shirt and jeans too work, when you are dressed like Vp Barbie all the time!"

"Well, this is as relaxing as it gets." Allison sighed, looking at Hannah.

"Then it's up to me then." Hannah said, getting up out of the couch and going to stand next to her. She grabbed her hand and tugged her down the hall. "Now, go get those low-rider jeans that I saw in your closet and come back here."

Hannah shooed her away and into her room. When she went to her chest, she opened the bottom drawer and pulled out some of her t-shirts that she bought at Hot Topics and Gadzooks. "Hmm? I bet he will have some sort of rock shirt on, then that leaves .. aha!"

Hannah pulled out a couple of t-shirts and laid them on the bed. One was a white and black shirt that had mid-length sleeve's, it had "The Beatles" across the chest of the shirt. Not too tight and not too loose. The other one was a Pink Floyd T-shirt "The dark side of the moon". It was black and shorter. "This was definitely," she said, holding up the pink Floyd shirt. To complete the outfit would be a pair of her black doc martin's and a belt that she made herself. It consisted of laminated movie ticket stuff that was copied in black and white.

A soft knock on the door signaled her mother's arrival. She already had the jeans and in a black camisole. She also didn't seem very sure about what her child was going to do to her.

"Oh, don't worry. I will save the drastic stuff for your honeymoon." Hannah said, handing the shirt, shoes and belt to her. "Now, be a good mother and put these on. I know you can french braid, so braid your hair."

At that, she shooed her mother to her room again and went into the living room again. Hannah was quite proud of the outfit she picked out for her and thought it was too cool that they would be dressed alike.

Hannah had on an olive green t-shirt with the "Ramones" on it, and a blue jean shirt with it. She had tan colored tights and her tan doc martins to complete her outfit. Very cool and comfy, that was her motto. Her mother was still changing when she heard the tell – tale rapping of a cane on the front door.

A slight flutter of nervousness swept through her body, as silly as it seemed. It was just the person that her mother liked and the outcome of this meeting would likely either pass or fail any chance of a future for them. If they all can't get along together then that would be the end of it. "No pressure, no pressure at all. Well-done Hannah. Real smooth." She sighed and rolled her eyes to herself as she opened the door.

When she opened the door, she almost laughed out loud. House was standing in faded blue jeans, a black suit jacket and a charcoal colored "Lynyrd Skynyrd" T-shirt. Complete with his gray Nike's and his cane. They would be the band gang tonight.

"Cool shirt." Was all he said as he came into the apartment.

"Back at ya." Hannah said, closing the door. When she turned, she almost ran into House. Who was at this moment, staring at something in the hallway. Hannah side - stepped to stand beside him, she didn't need to see where he was looking. Hannah already knew what he was looking at.

House was staring at one of his greatest fantasies. Allison was in a Pink Floyd T-shirt, granted that in the dreams she was in his t-shirt. But this is just as good. "Your doing I presume?" He asked quietly, not taking his eyes off Cameron as she walked down the hall.

"Yep." Hannah said, turning to him.

"You have my permission to apologize all you want. Nothing could take you off my cool list now." He said, limping towards Cameron.

"Well, that's good to know. I can sleep at night now"

Allison stood in front of him and smiled. "It doesn't look too odd, does it?" She asked, not looking up at him.

House just tilted his head and smirked. Oh the snarky comments he could provide. But, he just couldn't find it in himself to do it. "You look fine. Now, if I could only get you too dress that way for work." Well, maybe a slight remark was needed.

Allison just smiled and picked up her purse. "So, what are we doing?"

"Eating and a movie." Was all he said before leading the way out the door.

"Cool! What movie?" Hannah said, following him down the hall. "Do I get to pick?"

"No."

"But .."

"Nope."

"I'm the kid, I should get to pick the movie." Hannah pretended to whine, coming to stand beside him in the elevator.

House held the elevator, while Cameron caught up with them. "I'm the cripple, "C" comes before "K". Therefore, I get to pick."

"M-o-m-m! He's picking on me." Hannah pretended to whine, snuggling up to Allison as she walked in the elevator.

"But, she started it!" House whined, looking at her with puppy eyes.

"Now, you too stop before I turn us around and we go home." Allison said, pointing to both of them with mock anger.

"Yes mom." They both replied to her, before making faces at each other.

"I saw that." Allison said, as she left the elevator towards the door.

"See? Demonic possession." House said to Hannah, in a hushed tone.

"I heard that too." Allison said, opening the door leading the three out of the apartment building.

Allison walked out and stopped short. There was no red car and no bike. "How did you get here?"

"Teleportation." House said, limping away from the two and going to a Silver Bmw. When they didn't follow him, he rolled his eyes and looked over at them. "I didn't steal it." Still no movement from the two, "Look, we can thank the boy wonder for the ride with bling."

Allison just smirked and beckoned Hannah to follow her to the car. When the two got in, they heard House mutter 'women' under her breath.

Hmd Hmd Hmd Hmd Hmd

Dinner was wonderful. The three of them pulled into the drive way and Hannah almost squealed with delight. The wonderful red chili sign was above them.

"I love this restaurant!" She said excitedly, moving over to the door to get out.

"Oh, well. I guess we can't go here." House said, putting the car back in drive. "Time to leave."

"Gahhhh! M-o-m-m!" Hannah whined, but have a playful gleam in her eyes.

"House." Allison said, in a soft, no-nonsense voice. He turned to look at her with widened eyes but when she turned her head, he saw her smiling at him.

"Mean, Dr. Cameron. Very mean." House said, turning off the car. Hannah just smirked and got out of the car. She stood by the door while Allison and House walked together to the door.

"Welcome to Chili's. How many today?" The hostess said with a smile.

"Three." House said, coming to stand beside Allison. The hostess took three menus and led them to a booth in the corner. House slid across the booth, putting his leg up on the opposite side. Just before Allison began to say anything, he tugged on her elbow to pull her down to sit beside him.

The three ordered and waited on food. While they were waiting they began to discuss the movie choices. Which was more difficult than even House would have believed.

"So, what choices do we have?" Hannah asked, looking at House.

House was about to tell her when Allison piped up and fished out a black spiral notebook from her purse. Hannah just smirked at House's puzzled expression.

"What is that, your homework?" House asked, his curiosity spiking.

"My life" , was all she said before turning to the last page in the book.

"Seems like a tiny life, no fun there." House said, looking over at her.

"Ahh, but that's my you perfect the art of writing tiny." Allison said, turning her head to look at him with a smug smile on her face.

House just looked at her for a minute. It was in that moment that the true Cameron came out to him. He had previously assumed that Hannah got her spunkiness from her father, but no longer. This Cameron, he liked. Despite of himself, he let a small smile show on his normally serious face.

"What?" Allison asked, noticing he was still looking at her with his intense eyes. While normally, his eyes were cold and calculating, she could see a hint of happiness there.

"Are you going to kiss? Because if you are, let me get my phone out." Hannah inquired, as she stared at them over her glass of lemonade. She smiled when her mother swung away from him, while he gave her a withering look.

"Not cool." He muttered.

"Now, on with movies." Hannah said, gesturing to her mother's book again.

"Ok, let's see. These are all around the same time." Allison said, reading the book. "We have "Red Eye".

Allison and Hannah pause and say with dreamy faces, "Mmm. Cillian Murphy."

"Nope." House said, while looking towards the door.

"Fantastic Four" she continued

Sigh "Jessica Alba." House said, with his eyes closed and his head back against the booth.

"Not in your life." Allison said, without even looking up from the book.

"Ah, come on! She is going to be wearing spandex!" House whined, pleading to her.

"No, next. 'Batman Begins'." Allison said.

"Cillian Murphy." Allison spoke up in her dreamy tone.

"Christian Bale," Hannah said, at the same time.

"Rachel Adams." Piped up House.

They all looked at each other for a few minutes before shaking their heads. Allison just sighed and looked at the book again.

"The Land of the Dead."

"Ooh. George Romero." Hannah said, which caused House to look over at her. "What? Do you think I don't know anything about movies?" she said, looking over at House.

"The young one knows Romero, that's refreshing." House said, nudging Allison with his elbow.

"Well, I learned from the master." Hannah said, flowing her hand gracefully towards her mother.

"Now this is new." House exclaimed, looking over at Cameron.

"What? Did you think that I only watched chic flicks? My life doesn't revolve around drama, House." Allison said, looking up and seeing the food come over. "If I remember correctly, I am not the one who watches General Hospital religiously every day."

"Purely scientific research." He replied, while getting his silverware out to start eating.

"R-right." Spoke Hannah and Allison at the same time.

The rest of the dinner was spent eating. During dinner House continued to debate the seriousness of General Hospital in the Princeton-Plainsboro Hospital with the two girls, he didn't win.

The trio left the theater much later with a look of awe of their faces.

"Best." Hannah started.

"Movie." House continued.

"Ever." Allison ended.

"What are you talking about? You spent the whole movie hiding in his sleeve, mom." Hannah said, turning to look at her.

Allison was fixing to deny it when House looked over at her and shook his head. "Yes, you did. You can't dispute that. Sorry Charlie, no golden ticket for you."

"This is not fair." She cried. After a few minutes, she pointed at Hannah and said, "you! You're supposed to be banding with me not him."

"It seems that she also learned who to side with from you as well." House said, while limping towards Hannah. When he got in front of her, he leaned down slightly and looked at her. "I hate kids." He said as he watched her deflate a tad. "Which is why I don't consider you as one. You can be a young adult. "

At that she smiled and he limped to the car with the two women in tow. "He's pretty cool." Hannah said, leaning her head towards her mother.

"Yeah, he can be." Allison said at her.

"Look, you two can talk about me all night long. Let's just wait until after I get you both home and get some coffee." House called out from the car.

They both grinned and walked over to the car. Once they were all bulked in and on their way. Allison looked over at him and said, "So, I didn't know we agreed on coffee tonight?"

"Shh! Not in front of the little adult." House said, leaning over towards Allison.

"Oh come on you guys, I may be a teenager but I'm not an idiot." Hannah said, while looking out the window.

Hmd Hmd Hmd Hmd Hmd

The car pulled in the empty space and House moved to get out of the car. Hannah got out of the car and walked over to the sidewalk to wait for them. House walked up to the sidewalk and waited for Allison to get out.

When she walked up to him, he looked down at her. He looked like he was contemplating something. "If you want to do something just do it. Don't over analyze everything all the time. For once, do something that your mind thinks is stupid."

When she looked at him, she noticed that his other hand seemed to be moving towards her. It was his indecision that spurned her. She knew then that with him, she would have to meet half way until he was ready. She slowly put her hand in his and smiled up at him.

House watched her eyes light up and reveled in the fact that he could do this still. He could make people angry, cry or break. But, right now he was thrilled to know that he was the one to give her that smile.

Hannah just watched them through the whole process and came to an understanding. They were both mending inside and out. House needed her mom and probably herself on a certain level. Her mother also needed all the help she could get as well. And before Hannah knew it, a feeling that she never thought she would feel for the bitter doctor. Acceptance.

"Off to get coffee." House said, still looking at Allison while holding her hand. As the three began to walk to the door, a voice ran out startling them.

"Hannah!"

At that, the first thing that House noticed was that Allison and Hannah both froze on the spot. Hannah had that 'deer in the headlights' look. Then, she looked over at her mother and had a guilty look on her face. Puzzled, he looked down at her mother and found that her entire body had frozen. Looking in the direction of the voice, House spotted a man coming towards them.

He looked like he was a tad shorter than he was. The same color hair, only shorter. At the present time, he was wearing a gray t-shirt and a pair of black dress slacks. It took one look to realize who this man was; it took less time to know who this man was. The reaction that Allison was giving right now told him everything he needed to know.

House just took his hand from Allison and limped over to the man that was coming to stand near them.

"So, you must be Daniel." House said, sending him a glare.

"Yes, and you are?" Daniel said, while sending a glare that could rival House's.

"Here for the show."
