Ch.4

DISCLAIMER- I don't own the characters of House, M.D.

CREATION- I DO HOWEVER OWN Thadias Morrison Blackout, Septis Setzer Blackout, and Mic.(TM)

Septis goes into a room and sees a teenage boy maybe around fifteen or sixteen. He has short blonde hair his eyes are closed. He walks up to the bed grabbing more papers from his bed. He briefly glances at them before putting them back down. He reaches over and removes the sheets. There the boy's chest lies bare with a giant bloody scab infested wound. He very carefully takes his index finger and pokes the wound. No he just doesn't gently poke the wound he jabs his finger on it hard even going into it.

The boy yells out in pain awaking from his deep sleep. His finger is covered in a mix of blood and infected yellow gunk. The boy stares furiously at him. He doesn't say anything though he just stares at him. A thudding sound enters the room Septis doesn't even have to look up to see who it is. But he does anyway.

"What in the hell are you doing!?" The boy looks at House some what frightened by his outrage.

"I was experimenting." Septis smiles as he reaches over to repeat his action.

His finger is mere inches away from the scar, when all of a sudden there is a cracking sound and his finger is in gulped in pain. He looks at his finger and sees House's cane smashed into it.

"You realize that hurt right?"

House puts his cane back down on the floor. "I bet it felt great!" House replies. He almost pokes the boy again but he puts his finger down.

"Why doesn't he speak?" Septis can tell that the boy had went through something.

"He's just too shocked to speak by your handsome looks!"

The boy just looks at the two of them listening intently at their conversation. Septis almost says something about that comment but stops.

"Well he's your patient you figure out why he's not talking."

He stares at Septis a bit longer before limping out of the room.

"So tell me why aren't you talking?"

The boy blankly stares at the doctor. "I don't speak to gay people."

Septis laughs a bit from his comment. "What makes you think I'm gay?"

The boy stares at him with hatred filled in his eyes. "You and your crippled boyfriend sure make it obvious.

" Septis gives the boy a somewhat angered look. He walks up close to the boy getting in his face, he speaks quietly.

"So, how long do you think that you will live without a heart?" The boy moves back afraid of his threat.

"You won't be able to get away with it you pussy."

Septis smiles picking up a knife. "Ohh really? I can finish this job in ten minutes, try me."

The boy's eyes are filled with fear he moves back further.

"You---" Septis leans his head forward just inches in front of his face.

" I what?" The boy shakes his head.

A cane taps the floor several times before making a steady pace slowly becoming quite. Septis heads back to his office; he sees a figure sitting in his chair its Foreman.

"I know that we don't know each other well, but I can't tell anyone else this."

Septis rolls his eyes," Great here we go again. Where's my syringe?"

Septis thinks to himself. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out the syringe. This time he stabs the needle deep within his neck. Blood flies out covering his hands he wipes them on his jacket and shuts the door.

"I should've done that the first time, I don't know why I didn't." He places the needle back within his pocket he walks down to a near by bench and sits down.

Cameron walks down the hallway noticing him sitting there; she sees two bloody smeared hand prints on his coat.

"What happened there?" She says pointing at the blood stained jacket. Without looking up he says.

" I was doing an experiment with some red dye and some white powder, it spilled on me."

She gives him a skeptical look before leaving the area. The clock on the wall read 2:45pm; he had left Foreman alone for ten minutes. He rises up from the hard bench heading back to his office.

"Looks like I have to wake up Sleeping Beauty."

He swings the door open then slams it shut. He bends down to help get Foreman up he uses the exact same lie that he had told him a day ago, luckily he bought it.

He grabs some papers off of his desk and jams them into a folder. He leaves his office heading for home. Outside he is greeted by a rather odd visitor none other then House.

"Hey Sep." House is leaning up against Septis'es sleek black car cane in his right hand.

"Did he just call me Sep!?" He ponders before answering him back.

"House." Septis mocks House by leaning against his car as well.

"There's a doctors convention a few hours away in Greenflower, only so many doctors get invited. They said to bring a d-----friend…so…"

Septis smiles. " Are you asking me out on a date?"

House's eyes widen he almost loses his balance.

"What!? No I figured that since you're the newest doctor you should go."

Septis doesn't know what to think so he says the only thing logical.

"Whens the trip?" House gets up from his car.

"Tomorrow." Septis opens the car door.

"Ok I'll pick you up, what time should we leave?"

House steps forward going away from his car. "Seven should be fine."

The next morning Septis has a small suitcase packed up for the trip. He has a hot cup of coffee sitting in a holster cooling it has to be just right. House is standing at the end of the parking lot next to him a small suitcase of his own; he's wearing his leather jacket. He puts his suitcase in the trunk beside the other one.

"Morning Sep." House says warmly closing the door. Septis grabs his coffee taking a quick sip.

"Morning." He grunts back.

"Aren't you cheery in the morning?" House says sarcastically.

"Where in the hell is this place?" House places his cane in his lap.

"I found out that the convention isn't until tomorrow and plus it's the next state over. Good thing I have directions!"

Septis shakes his head. "Just read them to me."

Hours have past by since that last sentence.

Septis considered House lucky to just sit there reading. He had been counting the number of times that he has popped a Vicodin, so far since the many hours have went by the number was three. He wished that he still had some coffee left it was starting to get cold outside. It was starting to get dark quickly plus he was starting to get tired.

"Look, I can't drive much further. I'm getting tired and it's getting kind of dark."

House can see the tired look on his face. "Alright pull into the next hotel."

Easy for him to say the next hotel didn't appear until ten minutes later. He pulls into the parking lot quickly getting out while House takes his time. He places his cane onto the pavement and heads for the trunk.

"It's alright I'll get our stuff, just head in there."

Without complaining House heads to the hotel and goes inside. Septis emerges a few minutes later with their things, he walks up to the front desk.

"I would like a room."

The man behind the desk glances up at Septis. "Ok sir would you like one or two rooms?"

The man looks at House wearily. "One shall be fine."

The man behinds the desk hands them to key. The two of head to the elevator up to their room. Septis throws down their things on the floor he bends down and gets some clothes out. House sits down on one of the beds.

"I guess this ones mine." Septis grabs his clothes heading to the bathroom. "I'm taking a shower."

House continues to sit there cane still in hand. House looks at the time.

"Well I better do this now before Septigays gets out."

He stands up opening up his suitcase. He gets out his clothes beginning to change; he removes his shirt and jacket revealing his hairy chest. He sits his cane to the side. He kicks off his shoes they fly off hitting the wall. He un-buttons his pants dropping them on the carpted floor revealing his dark blue boxers.

"I need to change these." He grabs a new pair of dark red boxers and lays them onto the bed.

He places either thumb on the side of his boxers he pulls them down slowly getting an inch past his hips. The door slams open Septis walks out his wet jet-black hair is strung all over his face, water still dripping. His chest is bare revealing several tattoes among his slender yet muscular body. He has a dragon tattoo running downt the top left shoulder going all the way down to his wrist. He has his name in Japanese on the upper right part on his arm.

He has grim reaper designs with swords running down his right arm. He has some symbol designs on both of his sides. He also has a giant dragon design on his back along with some more symbol designs on his back neck muscles. He can see where House's thumbs are located at he stares at the other man's body with sexual hunger. The only tihng that Septis is wearing is a pair of thin pajama pants with various yellow lighting rods coming down.

House removes his thumbs and quickly grabs his pants. He reaches for his cane along with his new pair of boxers. He limps on past him staring at his slender, wet, tattooed body. Septis just stands there. "I'm so glad that he went in there." He wispers to himself while looking down at his rather large erection. He turns on the t.v. and starts flipping through some channels. He gets in his bed trying to quickly cover up the boner in his pants. House changes his boxers and glances at himself at the mirror. Beads of sweat pour down from his face landing in the sink. He gently pulls up his pants while saying in a whisper.

What in the hell is wrong with me!?"

He wipes the sweat from his forehead, grabs his clothes, and heads out of the bathroom. He sees Septis lying there with something buldging through the thick covers, he can only guess what that buldge can be. He's still flipping through the channels.

" Do you want to watch anything?" He says hoping that he doesn't notice his boner.

House actually finds himself staring at it, he snaps out of it quickly looking at the t.v.

"No watch whatever you want."

House places his cane next to his bed, climbs in continuing to stare at his erection.

"Have a staring problem Greggy?"

Off guard he quickly looks at the t.v. "No I was just looking where you put the remote.

" Septis smiles. "Here do you want the remote?"

He holds it up. "Yeah." Septis still has it in his hand.

"Well come and get it.

" House frowns.

"Why don't you just throw it at me?"

Septis fondles the remote in his hand. "I don't want to hit your leg."

House continues to frown.

"Whats life without chances? Why can't you just get up and give me the remote?"

He can still feel his erection. "Because I'm tired plus I don't want to get up."

House removes his covers getting out of the bed. "Fine then lazy ass I'll come and get it myself."

He stands up tripping over his covers landing on Septis, his erection goes into House's lower stomach.
He lies there not moving trying to figure out what to do. Septis can smell the other man's hair sent.

"House? A-are you ok?"

House lies there somewhat motionless he rises up his head,"Yeah I'm fine."

House puts his hand underneath him and lifts himself off of his erection he is sitting on both knees with pain shooting through his leg. Septis places a hand on the man's rough un-shaven face. He pulls him to himself kissing his smooth lips. He slowly removes his lips from the other doctor's. House stares at him in complete shock. He gets back in his own bed, reaches into his pocket and pulls out his bottle. He pops out a pill and shoves the bottle back within his pocket while getting back within his covers. Septis clicks the t.v. off, he reaches over and turns off the lamp.

"Good night Greg." Septis says like nothing had just happened.

"Night."

Septis buries himself deep within the covers his entire body is completely submerged. Septis reaches his hand down into his boxers and begins to fondle himself trying not to moan or be discovered by House. House lies there listening to the sound of flesh smacking against flesh, the noise increases after a few hours. The noises are followed by some squirting sounds as well a few moans of his name. House is trying to fall asleep but the horny man next to him won't allow him to.

House wakes up with the sunlight in his eyes. He sits up and wipes the sleep out of his eyes. He looks over Septis is gone. He sits up and shields his eyes from the sun with his hand. He gets his cane and goes over to shut the curtains. Septis emerges from the bathroom. House strolls over to his clothes and heads into the bathroom. Septis has his things on his bed packed up and ready to go. House quickly gathers his things and the two of them leave the hotel. Driving down the road House starts to become wired up. He keeps taping his cane against the black plastic floor mat repeatly. Septis tries to drown the sound out by turning on the radio, but House taps his cane faster and loulder trying to become loulder then the radio. Septis gives House a warning glare to stop but he continues ignoring his little threat. The cane taps faster and faster loulder and loulder.

Septis gives him one more glaring warning. Still the same effect happens. Septis forcefully tries to take the cane from him. But House won't let go without a fight. The two of them are grabbing the cane, each trying to gain control of the wooden wepon. House jerks torwards the door almost getting the cane away from the other man. Septis is a lot stronger then House considering his muscles and lack of injured leg. The car begins to serve in and out of the two lined highway. The car runs off onto the side of the road nearly hitting some railing. The music is blaring in their ears. House says something to Septis but it's completely unheard due to the overly lould music. Septis yanks the cane hard almost gaining control of it. There is a semi growing torwards them with rapid speed, neither of them see it coming. Out of the corner of his eye Septis can see it approaching.

Freaking out of the rush of the rapidly increasing danger Septis lets go of the wheel. House's expression changes from pissed off to fear. He struggles to keep his cane in his hand. The semi gets closer and closer with every passing second. Septis pushes House's chest sending him into the window. Septis takes advantage of the moment and pulls as hard as he can finally getting the cane from him. Septis throws the cane in the back seat and grabs back onto the wheel turing it hard. The car swerves out of the way of the incoming semi. Both men sweat heavily out of fear and anger. They are both breaking heavily Septis turns off the radio,

"Who in the hell do you think you are taking a cane from a crippled man!?" House rages.

"I warned you to twice to stop taping it." The cane sits somewhere in the back. Septis glances back there taking his eyes off the road.

He can see a small crack in his back left window from where the cane apparently hit. He looks down to see the cane lying in the floor board halfway on the seat, he turns back around.

"Give me my cane." House says in an angry tone

"The only way you can get that wooden wepon back is if you can reach it yourself." House sees the location of the cane.

He turns his body around and reaches for the cane. "Damnit."

He mutters out lould. Septis laughs in amusement. House un-fassens his seat belt completely turing around grabbing his injured leg. He reaches into his pocket grabbing his bottle. He quickly dry swallows the pill. He lays his cane on his lap and rebuckles himself. He's still tightly clutching his leg.

"So what happened to your leg?"

Septis never realized why he had not asked that question when they first met. I guess there was never a good time to get him alone.

"It's none of your concern." House said in an annoyed tine of 'here we go again.'

"Well it is my concern because I just asked you. If it wasn't my concern then I wouldn't have asked."

Septis removes one hand away from the wheel and places it on his own lap. The road seems to be passing by at a mile a second. "Where in the hell are we?!"

Septis growls in an angry tone. "Take the next exit we are almost there."

Setpis keeps his eyes peeled on the road in front of him. House carefully raises his cane removing his hand from his throbbing leg. Within a few seconds he swiftly takes his cane and hit's the mysterious doctor right in the top of his head. Without making a single sound from his throbbing head he turns onto the next exit, they come to a red light. He looks right into the eyes of his attacker.

"Why in the hell did you do that?"

He says in a calm tone. "You took my cane and I told you not to."

He places his hand back onto the stearing wheel. "Look."

House points at a near by brick building. "I told you that we would make it." Septis shakes his head.

Pulling into the overly crowded parking lot the two men look for a place to park. Septis looks around gazing,

"I have never seen so many people in white coats."

He thinks to himself. Pulling into possibly the only parking spot they can find, they get out making their way to the brick building. The wind is blowing strong it seems like it's going a million miles an hour.

"What's this place called?"

Septis finally asks the name of his where abouts. "It's called the Purity Building."

Septis shakes his head,"No the name of this convention."

Septis pushes his hair away from his eyes. His hair is rapidly blowing all over his young face. The tree branches are heavily swaying back and forth it seems like the branches are going to break off any second. The automobiles are rocking almost violently back and forth sounding like thunder hitting tin roofs.

"This is the Intenational Medical Convention. Or the I.M.C. as everyone else calls it."

The two of them are greeted by a middle aged man sitting behind a table with all sorts of clipboards scattered everywhere. The man looks up at the two of them looking like hes just pissed his pants full.

"Dr. House! It's so nice of you to make it! Please please come in. Ohhh and who is your friend?"

The man stupidly smiles. "Yes hello Mic. This is my good friend Dr. Septis Blackout."

Fear in gulps Mic as he stares almost shaking at Septis. "A-are you realted to Dr. Thadias Blackout?"

Septis gives him an evil looking stare. "Why yes he's my cousin."

Mic is completely speechless, he nods and hands then some passes. "I'm so surprised! This is the very first convention that House has ever been to! They have been going on here for twenty years!"

Mic says to a man standing near him. They go inside the building and look around. Doctors surround them staring in pure amazement at who has just entered though the door. Majority of the room are stunned in silence at their arrival. They walk around for a few minutes exchanging glances and hellos.

"This place is huge!"

Septis says looking around at all of the people. House nods,"Yes it is rather large,"

Septis feels a mild tap on his right shoulder he looks at House. House looks at him with the 'I'm not doing it' look. They both turn around to see a tall medium blue haired man. He's wearing glasses, a white doctor's coat, khaki tan pants, and a blood red tie to match. He wears a smile on his face as well as a doctor's badge.

"Sep! How has my cousin been?"

Septis stares in amazement at the man in front of him. House is speechless for once realizing who this man is. "Hey Thad it's so great to see you! I've been fine."

The two cousins share a strong abrasive hug. Thadias looks at House,"Who's your…friend?"

He says searching for the right words to say. "This is Dr. Greg House, a good friend of mine."

Thadias smiles extending a hand, "It's nice to meet you."

House holds strongly onto his hand trying to be the dominate one. "Same here."

Thadias grabs ahold of his cousin's shoulder leading him a few feet away from House. "So where did you pick this one up at?"

Septis smiles at his cousin slyly,"Would you believe it if I said bribe?"

Thadias laughs. "What am I going to do with you!?"

The two cousins share a small laugh with one another.

"So have you banged this one yet?"

Septis removes his arm from around him. House stares intently at him almost waiting for an answer. "He's not like that."

Thadias rolls his eyes. "Ohhh…so he's not gay? Or is it that he is gay and just won't put out?"

Septis glances at House who is still staring at the two of them. "Ohhh…well don't worry about it. It's either you two are or aren't, there's no middle."

Septis runs his fingers through his hair. "Have you ever been in love?"

Septis wonders about his cousin. Thadias laughs,"No."

House is standing there still staring at them waiting. "I am, you're staring at him."

Thadias looks away from House,"Him? The cripple?"

Septis nods,"He has a name asshole, House."

Thadias nods."Ohhh…sorry. Yes House…here let me go break the ice." Thadias starts walking to House.

Septis frantically tries to grab him by the arm,"Thadias don't!"

Pushing his cousin away from him he walks over to House leaving Septis to stand there embarassed.

"Hey House."

House gives him a strange stare. "Thadias."

Thadias turns his back to his cousin. "Look, I know that you know how he feels about you, don't break his heart."

House gives him a questioning stare. "Excuse me?"

Thadias lets out a light laugh. "Cut the shit. I can tell how you feel about him, I'm watching you."

Thadias gets a crazy look in his eyes. Septis breaks up this little conversation. "Thadias?"

Septis gives him a warning glare, Thadias smiles. "I believe that you need some more serum, I'll be at your place in the next few days. Take care Sep. It was nice meeting you Greg."

Thadias smiles and walks out of House's earshot. "Don't let this one get away Sep."

He mutters as he walks away. He smiles at his cousin's remark. The two of them watch Thadias walk off. Septis turns to House.

"So how do you like my cousin? He's nice huh?"

House looks at his cane avoiding eye contact. "Yeah nice."

House thinks about the two cousin's conversation, their converation rages on within his head. "So have you banged this one yet?"

Hearing the crazy cousins, hearing their words…"House!"

Septis says for the third time trying to get his attention, he looks over at him. "Come on let's go sit down."

House nods following him with their words still buzzing about in his head. The two of them sit down on a wooden bench which is backed up against the wall; on either side of it are two trash cans along with a set of bathrooms. "But I thought…."

Septis looks at House with a questioning glance. "What?"

House pauses looking at the floor. "Isn't Thadias a murderer?"

Septis looks into his eyes getting closer to his rough yet handsome face,"Yeah…he is. So I'm guessing that you read my bio from work, or that you just know a lot about him."

House taps his cane a few times onto the hard tiled floor. "Bios can say a lot about a person, hell mine says too much."

Septis moves away from his face not making any eye contact. "So your juding me by who my cousin is?"

House continues to tap his cane surprisingly Septis doesn't get annoyed by his actions. "No I'm not. Cameron and Chase were looking at it so they pulled me over to see it."

Septis leans his head against the wall. "So they're against me too?"

Neither man makes eye contact. "Against you? What makes you think that we are against you?"

People continue to walk by them some listening to their conversation, while others don't even give them a passing glance. Both of their voices continue to get loulder.

"Well I guarantee that they see me as a threat. Hell I even had to drug Foreman twice what does that tell you!?"

Septis stands up stepping a few feet away from the bench. "Your wrong that's what it tells you!"

House stands up getting up in his face. Septis steps back farther not wanting any close contact between the two of them.

"I don't fucking care! They all hate me! No one trusts me because of my cousin!!"

His face is turning bright red from all of the yelling between the two of them.

"You're so fucking stupid! There is someone who likes you!!"

House puts his cane on Septis's chest preventing him from going anywhere. Septis tries to push the cane away from him but House just pushes harder.

"Who in the fuck would like me!? No one! I can't be liked just look at me!"

Septis'es voice increases causing everyone in the area to look at the two of them. People begin to whisper about this argument or fight as some call it there. House slams his cane down on the floor.

"You fucking idot, I like you!!"

House blurts out, out of pure anger and frustration. Septis'es mouth hangs open at this new discovery. Everyone around them is speechless as they stare at the new proclaimed love interest. Septis walks off through the huge amount of people surrounding them. House watches him walk off until finally deciding to follow him.

Limping with all of his might he effortly tries to catch up with him. Septis gets inside of his car sitting there in the driver's seat head resting on the wheel. Tears run down his hot feeling face, landing onto the steering wheel. A violent tap on the window makes him look up. He sees House tapping the window hard with his cane damn near smashing through it.

"Stop before you smash through the goddamn window!"

Septis places his head back down on the wheel sobbing. The door handle gets violently pulled sounding like it had just come off.

"Unlock the fucking door, I'm getting in!"

House says continuing to pull on it trying to get in. "No, go away!"

The sound continues getting even worse, it's about to rip off any second. The sound stops but the tapping sound starts up again. The window makes a cracking sound, the glass getting weaker with every strike.

"Open the door!"

Yells House sounding angry as ever. Septis turns his head avoiding eye contact making him even more pissed off.
A giant smashing sound makes Septis jump up from his seat, his head mere inches away from hitting the ceiling. He looks over to see a cane smashed through his window, almost hitting him in the face. He backs up not wanting to get hit. The cane draws back as House reaches his hand through the broken window, unlocking the door from the inside.

"I told you that I would get in."

He wipes the broken glass out of the seat with his cane. He sits down glaring at Septis. He moves his body to a comfortable position. "I think glass just went through my ass."

He moves once more. "Get out of my car."

Septis turns his head back avoiding him. "No listen to me. What I said in there wasn't a lie. I don't give a shit who your cousin is."

Septis shakes his head, he says sobbing,"Get out."

House pulls him toward him eyes meeting. "I like you."

House says staring deep into the eyes of his new found love. He leans over and wipes the tears from his eyes. "I'm serious, I like you."

He smiles placing a hand upon him. Septis just sits there listening to him. "I love you so much Gre----"

Before he could finish his sentence House locks his lips with the handsome young doctor. Septis returns this long awaited kiss. House places his cane down embracing his young friend. Septis can feel the warmth of the older man, he finally smiles.
