Day Five

I actually woke up smiling. Even after I looked at the clock and saw I was late, I didn't care. House was laying next to me, and that's all that matters. House rolled over to look at me and smile.

"I'm glad you're back." The love didn't last, because as soon as I went to say something, he got out of bed and said "I have to pee." I sighed and laid my head back down. The phone rang and I reflexively grabbed it on the first ring.

"Hello?"

"House?" It was Cuddy.

"Not quite." Silence.

"Oh, my God. Wilson. You are...there. Did you...yeah, you did. Well. Umm. Never mind then. Take as long as you'd like." she hung up before I could answer. House was standing at the door frame, watching.

"Who was that?"

"Cuddy." he laughed a little.

"Bitch me out?"

"She WANTED to, but she knows that we slept together last night and told us to take as long as we'd like."

"That Cuddy." he sighed. "No wonder I like to keep you around. She lets me do whatever I please." I didn't like the sound of that. He saw my tension and sat down next to me.

"Kidding, Wilson. Just because there are no women in this relationship doesn't mean you have to act like one." I eased up a bit. I have to get used to him being an ass, constantly.

"Out of curiosity, is your place ready yet?" Shit. Shit. Shit. I completely forgot.

"Do you think you are staying here forever?" House questioned, a little annoyance in his voice.

"Of course not." I mumbled.

"Two days, and it'll be a week." he noted. He then pointed to the phonebook and left for work. I wanted to cry. I couldn't face anyone in the hospital when I came in. My good mood ruined, I walked straight to my office. I felt a hand on my shoulder and I tried to shrug it off, but it was persistent named Kayla.

"What happened?" she asked. "You two left so happy last night."

"Don't remind me." I grumbled. She frowned and cocked her head to the side, momentarily looking like House.

"He wouldn't be like this for this long, I would've thought. Maybe something is up." I looked at her doubtfully. She looked so sure of herself I wanted to hug her. Or punch her in the mouth. Regardless, I didn't believe her.

"Go talk to him." She urged, and before I knew it, she shoved me in the direction of House's office. She watched me the whole walk there, and I decided it was best to just do it.

"House, I-" He glared up at me, holding up a finger. I didn't realize he was on the phone so I backed away. After he hung up, I asked "Who was that?"

"Hooker. Says I forgot to pay. Dumb bitch can't count I guess." I stared at him until he said "Kidding, really. Women are gross." God, he was so frustrating sometimes.

"We need to talk."

"I need to save this patient." He brushed by me as his beeper went off. He pissed me off so bad that I knocked down a stack of his papers. Then I felt bad so I picked them up again. I had two days and I had to leave. I had no where to go. I asked Chase if I could stay with them again, but he laughed at me.

"Are you kidding? Kayla finally stopped crying about you yesterday. I don't need her to start up again." If he wasn't so hot I'd strangle him. I was tempted to until House popped his head in the door and said "Wilson." I felt like a little kid that got in trouble when I stood up. We went back to his office and we sat opposite of each other.

"Be my bitch and you can stay with me."
