Sorry it took me a while to update...
Again, the medical terms might not be right, but just pretend they are.
I do know whats wrong with Cameron, and i will get around to making her better, don't worry!
Oh and just incase you didn't know, this whole story is taking place on Wednesday, hence the title, so Cameron first got sick in the morning and should be diagnosed by Thursday! yay. :)
Anyway, I love reviews! Thank you to everyone one who did, and if you didn't, why not?
On with the story...
It was almost noon and Cameron had stopped crying a while a ago, but i still clung on to her tiny frame.
Running her hands over my chest distractedly she spoke softly "Thanks"
I smoothed down her hair and kissed her head, she looked up at me and smiled. She didn't need to explain, and i didn't want her to, so we lay in silence for a few moments.
"Now, if i go and find Cuddy and talk about what just happened, your not gonna call security or the poilce on me or something?" I said, Grinning stupidly.
"Ha ha! You think your funny don't you!" Cameron pushed me off the bed, luckily i landed on my feet. "Now get out of here before i throw you out"
I leaned in and gave her a kiss on the forehead; "I won't be long" I smiled, fighting back the urge to say 'I love you.' I paused at the door... She wouldn't say it back, would she? It was far too soon into our relationship, i was just being stupid.
"You want me to get a hit man on your ass?" Cameron said with a cheeky glint in her eyes.
"You know, you think your real funny when your sick" I laughed and shut the sliding glass door behind me.
When i reached the diagnostics office Cuddy and Wilson were stood around the white board while House paced and occasionally scribbled things in his messy scrawl.
"What about a lesion in the temporal lobe? Could explain the seizures and abdominal pain, and the headaches," Cuddy suggested. House shoot her down immediately.
"Sure lets ignore the fact that she's vomiting blood!" He barked.
"Maybe she had an infection causing high amounts acid in her stomach making.."
"Or maybe she lost her tooth and that's why she bleeding" House interupted, his words drenched in sarcasm.
I entered the room unnoticed as House tapped his pen on the board, "Nothing explains everything and the cardiac arrhythmia..." He mused.
"Abdominal epilepsy?" i decided to suggest.
"That's a fancier way of saying cyclic vomiting right?" House threw back at me, "Is she a ten year old child Chase? I mean i know you have a thing for kissing little girls but.."
"It can present in adults" Wilson cut in.
"No, wouldn't cause the cardiac arrhythmic..." House said.
"Maybe its unrelated?" Cuddy suggested. "I mean nothing we've come up with so far can explain everything and the cardiac.."
"Did i not just say that a minute ago?" House rolled his eyes. After a few more moment's silence House spoke again.
"MRI" He said, putting his pen down and making his way to the door.
"Wait!" Cuddy said "So now you think it's neurological?"
"Nope." House said "But we have to do a complete pointless test at least once every hour, right?" He limped out of the door leaving me, Cuddy and Wilson to stare at the whiteboard.
After Cameron had under gone another 'completely pointless test' Cuddy came to see me.
"I'll be back" I told Cameron, she rolled her eyes.
"You don't have to say that every time you leave."
Cuddy slide the door shut behind us.
"House thinks it could be environmental" She said.
"Cameron has been at my Apartment for the past day, I'd be sick too" I said.
Cuddy sighed. "I know, but maybe its at her apartment, or maybe you are sick and your just not showing symptoms yet, you know what I'm asking Chase..."
I reached inside my jeans and pulled out the key to my apartment considered handing it to Cuddy and staying with Cameron. I glanced at her through the glass wall.
"I'm coming." I said.
Cuddy began to protest,
"You said it yourself" I interrupted "I might be sick too, so I'm not at risk. I know my way around my apartment and Cameron's." I stated.
I smiled at a worried-looking Cameron through the wall behind Cuddy's head.
"Plus I'm not having House going through my girlfriends underwear draw" I added.
Cuddy laughed.
Other than the over night bag i packed for Cameron, The last hour had been a complete waste of time.
The ride back from Cameron's apartment was fairly quiet. House fiddled with my radio and rooted through the glove compartment. I wasn't in the mood for any snaky comments so i sat in silence and let him laugh at my CD's and eat some toffees i forgot i had in there.
We hadn't found much, and i didn't think we would. Cameron's apartment was always clean. Occasionally she would leave clothes lying about but her place was never really messy, and she always kept her kitchen spotless. My apartment, however, was a little less clean. Not messy, but lived in. and you could tell i hated cleaning. Still we hadn't found much there either. House found Cameron's bra on my floor and amused himself for a little while by making comments at my expense, but we didn't find anything medically relevant. Nothing that would help save Cameron.
I was getting worried.
When we got back to the hospital House went to run tests on the few the things we collected and i headed back to Cameron's room.
When i got there i was a little shocked to see another guy in the room, and he wasn't a doctor. Cameron had a visitor.
Of course, I thought. She was sick, I'm not the only person she knows, she was bound to have visitors.
Still i couldn't help but feel a little jealous at the way she was smiling and laughing with some other guy.
I entered the room and smiled at Cameron. Walking over to her i kissed her on the lips making sure the guy saw it. She smiled brightly. "Anything?" She asked.
"Not much" I said, and she looked disappointed.
"You ok?" I asked.
"Yeah, I'm ok.. Oh erm, Mathew, this is my.. Boyfriend, Robert Chase." She paused before the word boyfriend as if it was strange and foreign.
"Chase, My half brother Mathew..."
"Same dad, different mom's" He explained, sticking his hand out in front of him. I shook it politely, I didn't know Cameron had a brother.
"Nice to meet you, finally..." Mathew smiled. Cameron blushed a little. "I've heard a lot about you"
That shocked me, Cameron had been talking about me?
"Erm.. I Wish i could say the same, but i didn't even know Cameron had a brother."
Curiosity got the better of me, "So what have you been saying about me then?" I directed at Cameron, my voice light so she could tell i wasn't mad.
"Nothing.. Just.. that i worked with you..." Cameron muttered.
Mathew laughed. "More like she's in love with ya mate"
"I never said i loved him!" Cameron quickly said. Cameron diverted her eyes from mine and looked over at the end of her bed.
Mathew didn't seem to notice, and sighed, looking at his watch "I have to go kidder, promise me you'll get better, ok?"
Cameron rolled her eyes, "Matt, I'm not a kid anymore."
Mathew laughed again "You will always be my kid-sister, ally"
Cameron smiled and gave Mathew a goodbye hug. "Love you" she said.
"Love ya two" he replied. Before nodding at me and leaving the room.
"I didn't know you had a brother..." I said.
"He lives in New York, i don't see him very often anymore but i talk to him on the phone... its not like i deliberately kept him a secret from you." Cameron explained.
"Ok, i was just saying."
We sat in silence for a few moments.
"I don't know anything about your life" I said suddenly.
Cameron thought for a moment, "You do, you know what i like and what i don't... and what im thinking most of the time..."
"That's not what i mean.. I mean, I don't know anything about you before Princeton... and it kinda scares me."
"What do you want to know?" Cameron said.
"I just... I felt like i knew you so well. I feel like I've known you for such a long time..."
"But really you don't know anything?" Cameron asked.
"Well, yeah" I replied, not sure myself where i was going with this.
"You know the important things, the little things... and you know how to make me happy" She smiled. I leaned in and kissed her.
"You don't love me though," I said before i could stop myself. My heart skipped a beat.
"Chase..."
"Alison" I said. We stared at each other, gazes locked, her before Cameron's finally looked away.
"I'm tired" Cameron said. "Let's talk about this some other time, ok?"
"Ok"
Cameron fell asleep almost instantly.
I brushed her hair with my fingers "I love you" I whispered, testing how the words sounded coming from my mouth.
She lay silently, peacefully asleep, and i sighed.
Any suggestions for chapter 5? let me know,
If not tell me what you think anyway...
