6 – Sleepless in Princeton

Ten minutes later, House was able to move again, so he went to bed. Even though it didn't really matter, he could have stayed on the couch and gotten the same results.

No, he didn't sleep. He just lay there, tossing and turning. First, he felt resentment to everyone who had something to do with the pain in his leg. Next, he found joy in thinking how he can manipulate Chase and Wilson, using their common weakness, Cameron.

Then he would feel shock for what Wilson said, and love as the thought of Cuddy crossed his mind. And finally, he'd feel those all over again, and again, 'till he finally found refuge in sleep, around 4 that morning.

-------------------------------------------------------

Wilson lay on his bed, staring at his ceiling, with all kinds of thoughts running through his head.

I can't believe it, I shocked House! He thought gleefully. And I was right about Cuddy! That was so cool!...House wouldn't really manipulate Chase and me, would he? Nooo. Maybe? Yes? No! Yes?

He suddenly shook himself, and relaxed so sleep could overtake him.

-------------------------------------------------------

Cuddy went to bed around 2 am, after polishing off a bottle of red wine.

Ugh. I am NOT looking forward to work tomorrow. At the thought of work, House's face appeared on the back of her eyelids. She couldn't shake the image, and didn't want to, so she fell asleep with it, and a small smile on her lips.

-------------------------------------------------------

Cameron was nestled, all snug in her bed, with visions of House, dancing in her head.

-------------------------------------------------------

Chase lay awake for a few hours, thinking about what Foreman said. After a while, he rolled over, and fell asleep, with a definite plan to win Cameron over set in his head.

-------------------------------------------------------

Foreman slept. Yet, it was not quite a peaceful dream. Although, it was pretty interesting. Wilson and House were in the Clinic, when suddenly Wilson slapped House, so he punched Wilson back, and they got into a huge fistfight. Cuddy came out of her office and cried out – "Greg! Be careful! Please, Greg!"

Then, Cameron and Chase stepped out of the elevator, and when they saw what was going on, Cameron started crying, so Chase started to comfort her. At the sound of her sobs, both men stopped fighting, and looked up.

They ran over to Chase, and pulled him into the fight. Then, suddenly, everything changed. He Foreman was on a calm, beautiful beach, with no worries or cares.

At that time, he subconsciously decided to take a vacation.
