The Little Things

Chapter 16

Today was amazing. We spent the rest of the night reveling in our love for each other. We dance, we laughed, we held each other; all night we just did what felt right.

Towards the end of the evening, which was around 11:30pm, Cuddy went to the microphone and announced that they were going to reveal the winners of the silent auctions and raffles.

"First up, we'll pull the winners for the raffles. I'll need a hand here to help out." She looked out scanning the crowd. "Dr. Wilson, would you please come up here and assist me?" she asked him. He stood from his seat and ran up to the stage to help Cuddy out. "The first item we're raffling off is the flat panel TV. Can I get a drum roll?" she asked smiling. The drummer complied and started a drum roll. Jimmy reached his hand into a large jar of raffle tickets and pulled one out, handing it to Cuddy. "The winner of the flat panel TV is… Dr. Michael Robertson." Applause broke out.

At that Greg leaned over to my ear and said, "Damn, I was hoping for that one!" I giggled in reply.

"Like you need another TV?"

"I was thinking about having it secured to the ceiling above my bed so that I could watch TV while I…" I smacked his arm before he could finish the sentence. "Owww, hey!" He said rubbing his arm.

"What? It was just a reflex!" I said laughing. He laughed as well.

"The next item up for the raffle is a gift certificate to a day spa." The drum roll started again while Jimmy reached his hand into the jar. "This item goes to… Wendy Perkins." Again, applause erupted throughout the crowd.

"Who needs a day spa when you can hire women to come to you own home and…" as I smacked him again. "Aww, come on." I laughed at him and he laughed as well. "You're no fun!"

"No fun? Really? I think I can be plenty fun when the right time… comes," saying the last word slowly with more emphasis.

"Oh… my… G…" he started to say as I pulled him in for a kiss to confirm my prior statement. We kissed not paying attention to anything else going on; getting lost in each other again. It felt like it was only us again as we release our deepest desires with that one kiss.

Suddenly we heard a loud noise coming from the microphone, "Ahem, guys?" Cuddy was saying trying to get our attention. "Earth to House and Cameron!"

At that point Greg leaned back away from our kiss and looked up at Cuddy with a look to kill. I of course blushed in response realizing everyone was watching us again.

Greg then relaxed his stare and said, "You rang mistress?"

"As I just got done telling everyone else here, you won the silent auction for the seven day cruise for two to the Caribbean."

"Btchin'!"

"What?" I said in response. There was a silent auction for a cruise? I should have paid more attention to what they were auctioning off.

"Oh, you probably didn't notice but I decided to go ahead and put my name in for the silent auction for the cruise. Wanna go with? I promise to rock the boat," he said waggling his eyebrow at me.

I laughed in response, squeezing his hand. "Heck yeah but I'd rather you rock my world instead of the boat so you don't tip the boat over!" He gave me the biggest smile in response while he leaned over again brushing his lips to mine.

He then ran, or more like quickly limped, over to the stage to claim his winnings. Wilson handed it to him smiling and winking at Greg.
