Authors Note: The Sushi restaurant Shimizu's is real existent.


By 7 she had decided she was pleased. The dress fit her perfectly, hugging and accentuating her curves. She had put on a light make up and put her hair up, leaving it curly as she knew he loved it. A rap on the door made her jump with excitement on the inside. With measured steps she went towards the door and opened it slowly.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Cuddy gasped at the figure in the hallway, then started to smile before she blushed as it hit her how much he had done just for her today. House was standing before her, his hair groomed and neatly combed, his stubble gone, a masculine smell of shaving cream and aftershave surrounding him. He was wearing an expensive looking 3 piece suit, the button down shirt even ironed but most importantly he had exchanged his flame cane for something more classy.

'Hi.'

From behind his back he produced a single long stemmed red rose. Lisa reached for it, her fingers passing over his hand softly, then grabbed the rose while her other hand went out to grab his free hand to pull him in. Stepping onto her tiptoes she met his forward movement and kissed him tenderly. Cuddy had to admit to herself that she had been missing him during the day, but even more when she laid alone in the big bed the night before. They had been getting used to staying with each other.

'I would be mad, if I wouldn't be so happy that you're here.'

She mumbled against his mouth, the soft feeling of his face on hers unusual.

'Wilson threw me out for the duration of your conference.'

'How did you make that happen?'

Cuddy looked at him puzzled and slipped her coat on.

'I threatened a little, only a little, and he gave up. He's so easy.'

House snorted and leaned down to kiss her again.

'Would you do me the pleasure Miss Cuddy and go out eat with me?'

'I should really be angry at you.'

She sighed and then took the offered hand, smiling at him brightly.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

They had landed at Shimizu's Sushi Restaurant Just a few blocks to the West. House had reserved a table in the cozy Bar and Restaurant.

'This restaurant was in my Lifestyle guide from last month.'

'I know, the magazine is at my place.'

'Since when are you planning this?'

They sat at their table and ordered some water, then started looking through the menu.

'Since Wilson told me about the trip the board would schedule for you. So...about three weeks.'

Cuddy gaped at him then chuckled.

'I can't believe you actually made me feel bad about leaving.'

Both ended up ordering a selection of California rolls and sake Wine.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

'I can't believe you poured that over me. Thats one of the most expensive Champagne's of the hotel.'

'So what? The Board is paying for the sexcapades right?'

House licked around her navel once more and grinned, his hands pressing her hips down, stopping her from writhing.

'Oh god that tickled!'

Cuddy pulled him upwards, laughing against his neck, his fingertips still skimming her sides.

'Greg, Stop it!'

She was laughing harder, her chest heaving rapidly from all the strain. His hands stopped and he pulled her harder against himself, groaning from the friction their bodies created together. The hunger suddenly build again, the lust shining in both their eyes.

House pulled the sheet off of her midriff before putting his hand on her center, smirking when he found her hot and wet. Lisa's hips buckled upwards into his hand, searching for the pressure and it's relieve.

'Greg...please...'

Her hands roamed over the plains of his naked body, clutching at his back and ass, pulling him down onto her, making her feel him.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

' God it's already 3 in the morning. I have to get some sleep, there's another meeting tomorrow morning.'

Cuddy groaned and snuggled deeper into his embrace, the cold air sweeping the room going unnoticed by the two lovers, warmed by their bodies pressed together under the blankets.

'Just skip it.'

'I can't, the board pays for all this and I will go to the meeting.'

She slapped his hand away as he tried sneaking it between her thighs.

'You will have to let me sleep House.'

'Oh fine, but you'll order breakfast on this room for me when you leave.'

House kissed her neck tenderly while pulling her close again, tangling their legs on purpose. His hand came to rest on her breast possessively and she had to chuckle before falling into a deep slumber.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

When House woke he immediately rubbed his hand down his thigh. He started getting used to the after morning pain in his leg. He actually came to like it in some way. It meant that he was alive. He was still there, still desirable. He could still get the Hospital hottie, and he had actually kept her, hadn't been able to push her away.

As usual when he stayed with Lisa or she with him, which as he pondered was almost every night since they came together, Lisa had already prepared two Vicodin and a glass of water for him on the nightstand. He swallowed them and emptied the glass. Suddenly a smell penetrated his nose. He lifted his head and squinted over the foot of the bed.

Cuddy had kept her word and had ordered him a whole cart of breakfast. House smirked and then let himself fall backwards again, stroking his hand lazily over his tummy, the sheet only pulled up to his waist. Life somehow seemed great at the time. He had a girl, constant sex and banter,m witty conversation and food. How could it get any better than this?

His minds Question was answered when the door opened and the familiar 'click clack' filled the room.

'Meeting was canceled. Food poisoning struck down most of the doctors. I was spared because you invited me.'

Cuddy came to an abrupt halt when she spotted Greg on the bed like this. He was sprawled lazily, his body stretched, pulling the skin tight over his toned body, really revealing all his muscles. The sheet had ridden down considerably by him stretching and left nothing much to imagination. His eyes were closed and the ever prominent smirk on his lips which were wet from him licking them.

A jolt went through Lisa, leaving her almost breathless, lust swamping her once again.

'God I feel like a rabbit!'

Her sex drive was definitely in overdrive at the moment.

'Probably have to make up for all the wasted years'

House opened one eye and squinted at Lisa.

'Are you planning to join me any time soon?'
