Ace was in tears all the next day. She spent most of the day listening to her music. Justin was trying to wait on her hand and foot, but realized she just wanted to let alone.

She couldn't believe it. Her mom was gone. She was back in the system. For the first time since she was 9, she was alone. Her 'real' was flying in that that day. She wasn't considered 'stable enough' to take care of her daughter. She frowned.

Actually, Terri (her mom) should be here by now. Ace stood up and walked to the clinic. Sure enough her mom was there. Terri saw her and walked over.

"Oh… Sweetie, how are you doing." She hugged the girl.

"We should go upstairs; I'm suppose to do this intern thing."

They walked over to the elevator. House stood there mouth hanging open. She followed his eyes and they landed on her mom, who was staring at him. She looked like a deer in headlights.

'I don't like where this is going,' she thought.

They got closer and House still hadn't said anything.

"Greg," she asked.

"Terri?"

'It's worse then I thought, they are on first names,' she thought.

"Terri, I haven't seen you in forever."

"How long was forever," Ace asked.

"Umm… 14, maybe 15 years."

Now Ace looked like the deer caught in headlights. 'No, what are the chances… It can't have happened. They are…' she thought.

"No," she whispered.

"What," House asked.

"Yes," Terri said.

"You said he was… Oh damn… No…"

House caught on.

"I don't think I like where this is going."

"Oh, cause I'm just loving it," Ace said, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

"It could have been this other guy. That's why I left."

Ace walked into House's office and sat on his chair and began to cry. Justin walked over.

"Julia, are you… What's wrong?" He sat next to her. She leaned on him and cried. He just hugged her and kissed her a few times.

"Greg, please take the test," Terri begged.

"No, it was once. We used a condom." She couldn't be his kid. But it would explain her looking just like Wolf, and being as brilliant as him sometimes.

"House, come on." Cameron was looking at him.

"Do it for Ace."

"No."

"Why."

"Because, it would explain too much." Now he was being an idiot. 'Fine, I'll do this,'Cameron thought.

"House," she said. He looked at her. "I love you," she said and his mouth dropped just like hers did months earlier. She swabbed his cheek.

"Oh… You stupid little good for nothing…"

"Hey, I learned from the best." She smiled. Haha, karma was gonna bite House's ass so hard one day.

"House, you don't have to take custody of her."

"I want to," he said, which seemed to surprise the women.

"House, you sure? I was going to adopt her. She deserves better than that hell hole they call—" but House cut Wolf off.

"She deserves better than me, too. But if you adopt her it will be a big thing. We've already determined she is under to much stress. Oh, and I have no clue how to raise a kid."

"Wait, why didn't you want the test," Cameron asked.

"It explains everything," Wolf said. "Why she looks like me, why House actually liked her, and why she liked him. It explains why Terri didn't want her to know her dad, because I agree, House, you are a jerk. And somehow she turned out to be as brilliant and as cranky."

"Just damaged," House said. But Cuddy was hung on how House being Ace's father meant she looked like Wolf.

"You two are related?"

Everyone looked at her and laughed. "Cousins."

"Oh, you failed to ever mention that."

"I haven't told any one besides Cameron."

"So your daughter just happens to look like your cousin?"

"She looks like my grandmother," Wolf contiued. "Identical."

House's phone began to ring. It was on the table so Cuddy picked it up.

"Hello Stacy." House did not wanna talk to her right now.

"Um… long story. Don't cry, Stacy. What's wrong?... No… Stacy, I'm a doctor, too… He isn't getting his phone back… But cause he has been using it to avoid Clinic… It might help… I'll only tell him I promise… WHAT?... 5 months, why didn't you call him before… denial is never good… are you sure though… yea I'll tell him right away." She hung up and walked over to House. Then she slapped him. Hard.

"Oww… What the hell… Cuddy…"

"Stacy's pregnant!" Everyone's mouth dropped.
