Chapter 9

And so it goes…

The entire time that Samantha was taking a shower, she tried to remember what had happened to her the night before. She was beginning to get worried because she was experiencing memory loss on a regular basis. She had at first chalked it up to hyperglycemia, but now she wasn't so sure.

What Samantha could remember was going home, taking a shower, having dinner, and then getting a call from Elliot. Elliot Reed had been Samantha's best friend since med school. They had even shared a room together. At that time most everyone called her Sam, and Elliot of course was born with a guys name, so they used to joke that was why they were so close. She even remembered Elliot had told her that she and her fiancé Keith had broken up. But beyond that point, she was drawing a blank.

By the time she had made it to Eric's car, she still had no clue, so she decided that she would have to ask him what had happened. The thing was, she had to do it in a manner that was inconspicuous , or he'd drag her to his hospital and insist on doing a bunch of tests on her, and Sam really couldn't handle that right now. Luckily, she wouldn't have to bring the subject up, as Foreman spoke first.

"So what do you think about Elliot and Keith's breakup? I really thought that she was going to marry him."

"So did I," Samantha admitted, "But with Elliot's track record…" Sam had thought that maybe Elliot had gotten over her commitment issues. She had sabotaged every relationship that she'd been in that had become even remotely serious. So when she had dated Keith for two years, it was easy to believe that her best friend was ready to settle down, and start a family. But instead, Elliot had decided at the last minute to kiss JD. She didn't even end up kissing him, but it was enough to ruin the relationship.

"Why would she want to kiss JD?" Eric asked, "I mean, I know they have history, but they'd been over forever."

John Dorian, or JD to his friends, had a brief fling with Elliot while they were interns, but it was obvious that they were better off just being friends. In fact, they had both moved on, with JD having a kid with Kim, and Elliot's engagement to Keith. She couldn't answer that question, so she just shrugged.

"So, how you feeling' this morning?" Foreman asked with a smile. "I'm surprised you can even walk, not to mention that you haven't gotten sick at all. I've never seen you drink like that before."

So that could explain some of her memory loss. She had been drinking. Samantha didn't drink much because she tended to get wild when she did. She was told she was an amusing drunk, laughing, singing, dancing and just generally being loud. She really hoped that she hadn't made a fool of herself. After all, she had a reputation to protect.

"Was I really that bad?" She asked lightly, hoping he wouldn't actually realize that she'd no memories of even going to a bar, let alone drinking.

:Not too bad, You and Elliot kind of ignored JD and I for a while, dancing and acting silly, but, we got you all lined out."

JD had been there? Was he dating Elliot again? How had Foreman "lined her out" and how did it lead to her waking up naked in his bed?

Once Foreman dropped her off at work, Samantha had made up her mind. She had to take care of some things. With resolve, she headed straight for House's room, not even stopping to unlock her office. She found him on his bed, ankles crossed, tossing a ball and catching it.

"We need to talk!" She insisted, and House sat up.

"That we do. I expected you sooner."
