Thanks for all the reviews, I really appreciate it. I hope you guys like this chapter :)
Everything was going great since Cuddy found out she was pregnant. She and House told Sara and she was just as ecstatic as Cuddy was after finding out the good news. They also told Wilson about Sara and Sara's pregnancy, but they decided to wait to tell Wilson that Cuddy was pregnant. They couldn't afford all of the gossip that would spread around the hospital all at once. It had been three weeks since then; Cuddy and Sara were doing great, even House seemed happy. Today Cuddy had scheduled her first six week ultrasound, she was really nervous, but excited at the same time. She scheduled her appointment with an old friend whom she met and trusted since medical school; she worked at a nearby hospital. Cuddy wanted to make sure her pregnancy would stay secret, at least until she was through her first trimester. Her appointment was scheduled for 3 o'clock, so Cuddy could go to work for a couple of hours and get through some paperwork before she had to leave for the appointment. As hours flied by Cuddy was getting more and more anxious sitting in her office. Finally it was almost time to leave when House walked into Cuddy's office without knocking.
"Ready to go?" He asked.
"Yup, I think so." Cuddy responded a little uneasy. "I'm kind of nervous." She admitted to House.
"It's okay; everything is going to be fine." He paused for a moment. "Everything is right on schedule, the morning sickness and those rapidly expanding breasts of yours, and who could forget about that ass; it's huge!" He said exaggerating.
"Just when I thought you were going to say something nice, you had to add that snarly comment in there didn't you?" Cuddy asked House.
"Yup." He simply answered as Cuddy rolled her eyes.
"Come on we're going to be late." Cuddy said taking House by the hand like a child grabbing her purse and heading out the door.
As they were walking through the halls to the doorway out of the hospital Wilson caught up to them. "Hey, where are you two going?" He asked.
"We're going to take a walk in the park." House said "I'm hoping to get a little something something, if you know what I mean." He said in a quiet voice raising her eyebrows up and down making sure only Wilson and Cuddy could hear.
"No really, where are you two really going? Wilson asked firmly. "You guys have been asking very secretive lately and I wanna know what's going on."
Before House had the chance to respond with some inappropriate come back, Cuddy said, "He's taking me home, I'm not feeling so well." She said looking up at House for some support. "I think I may have caught the flu from some clinic patient."
"Oh" Wilson said "I hope you feel better." He said genuinely meaning it. "I'll see you guys later." He waved goodbye as House and Cuddy exited the hospital.
House and Cuddy got to the hospital at 2:30, they were a half a hour early. They sat in the waiting room reading magazines while hoping that everything was okay with the baby. House looked at Cuddy and could see how worried she was as he put one arm around her shoulder and the other on her knee. "It's going to be okay, you have to stop worrying, that's not good for the baby." House said.
"I know." Cuddy replied "But I can't help but worry, last time I was pregnant I miscarried at 6 weeks." Cuddy said as tears started to well up in her eyes.
"Hey, it's going to be okay, I'm here for you, and Sara is here for you; everything is going to be fine. He said wiping away the tears in Cuddy's eyes.
"Lisa Cuddy." The receptionist said.
"Are you ready?" House asked.
"Yup, I'm ready." Cuddy said trying to sound as confident as she could as she and House stood up and made there way into the examination room.
"Doctor Stone will with you in a moment." The receptionist said closing the door behind them. A moment later Doctor Stone entered the exam room. "Lisa, how are you?" Dr Stone asked.
"Great, a little more tired than normal but other then that great." Cuddy responded. "How have you been Barbra? I haven't seen you in two years."
"I've been great; I'm actually getting married this year in May."
"Wow that's great!" Cuddy replied sincerely. "This is Greg House, he is a doctor also." Cuddy said motioning to House.
"Hi, I'm Barbra it's very nice to meet you." She said extending a hand to House. "I assume you're the baby's father."
"Yup that would be me." House replied, putting one hand on Cuddy's shoulder the other shaking Barbra's hand. Cuddy put her hand on top of House's hand giving him a 'you better be good look'."
"It's nice to meet you too." House said glancing at Cuddy who looked quite satisfied.
"Okay, you both ready to get started here?" Barbra asked. House and Cuddy both nodded.
"I trust you both know how this procedure works so I won't explain it step by step." Barbra said as she lifted up Cuddy's shirt and started to apply some gel on Cuddy's growing stomach. Cuddy winced at first when the gel was applied. Barbra saw her reaction. "It's a little cold at first." Barbra told Cuddy "You'll get used to it." Cuddy smiled feeling a little embarrassed. "Okay, I think I got it, the baby's heartbeat it looks and sounds good." Barbra informed them. "I'll give you two a minute." She said giving House the wand, steadying it on Cuddy's tummy, and then exiting the exam room.
"This is good." House told Cuddy "Everything does look perfect." He said looking at Cuddy. "Are you crying?" He asked.
Damn these hormones Cuddy thought. "I'm just so happy." She stated.
"Okay." House said. "I told you there was nothing to worry about, everything is perfectly fine."
"I know, I know it's just these damn hormones, I can't control myself anymore."
"Yea, you got that right." House said sarcastically as he gave Cuddy as tissue to wipe the gel from her stomach. "It's okay." House stated as he helped Cuddy up from the bed. "Let's go home."
Cuddy nodded, "I guess I can't go back to work now anyway, I'm sick remember?"
House laughed a little, "Yup, but don't worry you'll get better soon because I'll take good care of you." House said giving Cuddy a seductive look. And with that they left the hospital and drove home to Cuddy's house.
………..
"Sara" Cuddy called as she entered the house. "I'm home" She said taking Houses and her coat and hung them up in the closet. "Oh I forgot, Sara went out to visit some friends today, she won't be back until later tonight." Cuddy told House. Just then a smile spread across House's face.
"Then we'll have to do something to occupy us in the mean time." House said kissing Cuddy up her body, stopping at her lips.
"I think I know just the thing." Cuddy said leading him to the bedroom.
