Okay, Ace and her friends will be back soon.
Chase woke up again to find Cameron already awake.
"Hey," he said. She just moaned a bit. She was in a lot of pain.
"Do you want some breakfast," he asked.
"Yes please," she barely whispered. He left for the kitchen. He made waffles and eggs. He brought it in for her.
"Are you going to work?"
"No, House gave me the day off."
"You mean Cuddy?"
"No. House."
"House? I'm surprised he gave me a day off, and you…"
"Of course he would give us off. He adores you, Ally." She looked surprised.
"Not like that," he said, and then he smiled. "He sort of thinks you as a daughter. He tries not to show it, but it's true."
Cameron tried not to look surprised, but she was. House always seemed so…
"Who told you this," she asked.
"Those three girls who came to visit," he said.
"Oh…" She frowned. She guessed she would believe them. She ate some of the egg.
"Do you need anything else?"
"Can you make me some tea?"
"Of course," he said, and he kissed her on the forehead. He left for the kitchen.
Cameron stared at the ceiling. Did House really think of her as a daughter, or did Chase just say that to make her feel better. She ate a little more, and then decided to lie down. Chase came in a few minutes later with some tea.
"Do you still have wake me up every hour?"
"Yep, sorry 'bout that."
"It's OK, I know it 'cause you love me." He kissed her lightly on the lips.
"I'm gonna take a shower," he said, and got up. He went to go down the hall.
"It's in my bathroom." She nodded to the one in her room.
"Never mind. I don't wanna keep you awake," he said.
"I'm not going back to sleep. Don't worry." He looked at her, she looked exhausted.
"Don't worry," she said looking back at him. He went into the bathroom. Cameron had to lie down. She fell asleep almost instantly.
Half an hour later Chase walked out of the shower to find Cameron in the middle of nightmare. He woke her.
"Ally, are you OK?"
"What?" She seemed sort of dazed. She saw him, gave him a big hug.
"Are you OK?"
"Yea, I'm fine."
"What happened?"
"The same dream again, the one from Australia," she said.
"It's okay, luv, its okay."
MEANWHILE
Wolf was in the conference room. She thought this might be a good time to call Ace, even though she would be at school.
Acesat in Biology, really bored. She already knew all this.
"Who knows—"
"It's when the body isn't accept any more…"
"Julia, raise your hand."
"My name is Ace. And you don't call on me. Any way it's basically the body has become allergic to its self." Her phone began to ring.
"Thank God." She looked at it.
WOLF it read.
"This is a very important call. It's for my summer—"
"You don't need to take a call for camp or vacation," the teacher said getting mad.
"Um… It's more like an internship, maybe you have heard of it? It's called Platy's Plan. I was tied with some girl in another school. Can I take this call?"
"In the hallway," he said. She ran out.
"Hey," Ace whispered into the phone.
"Hey, Ace. How's it going?"
"Can you check it I got into Platy's Plan real quick?"
"Sure. Ready for the update of the week, you not gonna believe it thought," said Wolf. She was searching through the computer files to see if Ace got into Platy's Plan.
"Try me," said Ace.
"Cameron got a concussion."
"What? How?"
"Chase crazy ex girlfriend attacked her! She knocked her head up real bad."
"Oh no, that's horrible."
"Yep, and get this, you were right. House does care for her."
"Duh, I'm always right, except when I'm wrong. Wait. Cameron or Cuddy?"
"Well, I was referring to Cameron, but I think you were right about Cuddy, too. Oh, and Foreman almost got engaged."
"Wait, back up to Cuddy. What happened?"
"House got really pissed at Stacy. She told him that she loved him but she couldn't be with him. She is leaving next week!"
"Thank God. Is she divorcing Mark?"
"Yep, how much money have made from those nurses?"
"I don't know, did House and Cuddy officially hook up?"
"No, well they totally did it, but they won't admit it."
"Wow, I wish I could seen their faces after that."
"Me too. I came in late that day, so they were extra cranky by that time with the rumors flying around." They both laughed.
"And what about Foreman," she asked.
"Oh, well he has the ring and everything, but their date got ruined and he never asked her."
"That sucks."
"JULIA, are you almost done," the teacher called.
"Almost Mr. B."
"Hurry."
"OK, can you tell me if I made Platy's Plan."
"Let's see, yep you did. Congratulations."
"Told you I would see you over the summer," she said.
"If Cuddy gives you diagnostics."
"She will,"Ace smirked.
"Why?"
"Cause I know she slept with House!"
"Ha, your right."
"Hey, do you mind telling my bio teacher I made it, so he doesn't think was a social call?"
"I'd be happy to. But this was a social call."
"K, his name is Mr. Berns."
"Alright."
"Send everyone my loves."
"Will do Ace," Wolf laughed. Ace handed walked into the class.
"Thank you very much Dr. Wolf," she said.
"Wait a one gosh darn second, let me talk to him," said Mr. Berns.
"Sure," said Julia, and she was about to hand over the phone.
"Hold on, did you just say, 'Wait a one gosh darn second'." She began to laugh, and gave the phone to him.
"Dr. Wolf?"
"Yes," she asked politely.
"Did Julia really get accepted in Platy's Plan?"
"Yes she did."
"Oh, OK, thanks," he said, and he hung up. Wolf did everything she could to control her laughing, but just the sound of this guy's voice, you could tell he was the dopey stereotypical science teacher. Mal-fitting shirt, floppy and out of place belt.
"Um… everyone congratulate Julia on getting into Platy's Plan."
"What the hell is that," asked one of the kids.
"It's a test you take, and the highest score in each state gets to go to PPTH for an internship type thing. Different hospitals have different projects, but PPTH is one of the best," he explained.
"Congrats, Ace," the kid said.
"Do you know where you want to intern," asked Mr. Berns.
"Diagnostics."
"Oh, probably not a good idea. The head, Dr. House—"
"I love Dr. House, he is so sweet."
"Are we talking about the same guy?"
"Um… tall, walks with a cane, addicted to Vicodin, and has blue, sometimes gray, eyes?"
"I guess we are talking about the same person. He isn't sweet, he a grouch."
"I know," she said, and she put her headphones in her ear.
"Hey, class isn't over." Then the bell rang. Everyone ran out of class.Ace went to study hall. She couldn't wait to talk to Kristen. She didn't see Katie until Spanish.
BACK TO WOLF
"Hey Foreman," Wolf said.
"Hey Wolf," he said. "How did the call go?"
"Oh, I told her everything. Damn, do you know how much those nurses owe her?"
"Quite a bit, I would guess."
House walked in."So Wolf, did you call the littlest duckling."
"Yep, she sends her loves to all, and got into Platy's Plan. Guess what department she is choosing?"
"Oncology?"
"You wish."
"I do actually," he said. He wrote some symptoms on the board.
"Right."
