They dropped into bed exhausted, House in his pj's and Cameron somehow acquiring one of his shirts around her body while her girl boxers settled tightly around her hips. Their bodies seemed to find each other of their own accord and press together from head to toe as House spooned behind her.

Sleep came easy for them and laid in the minds thick, heavy and peaceful like the warmest blanket.

The alarm blared loudly in the early morning much to House's chagrin, though feeling Cameron stretch against him was practically worth the early awakening. He tightened his arms around her as she reached over and shut of the alarm.

"Where do you think you're going?"

"Work."

"No, stay." He murmured hugging her tightly and nuzzling her neck sleepily.

"Take your pills and I'll stay in bed until you fall asleep again." she said by way of a compromise as his pills rattled in her hand as she passed him the bottle.

"Hard bargain but I'll take it." he said taking his time as he swallowed his pills and then kissing over her neck as he stretched over her to set the bottle on the bedside table. "What if I stay awake?" he asked with a grin.

"Then I guess I'll have to stay." she mumbled enchanted by his touch.

"We should take a vacation sometime, cause I know it'll be the only time I'll every really get you all to myself." He said against her neck. "And I want you all to myself." he growled possessively his arm curling around her and hugging her hip.

"Greg." She breathed wanton with sudden need.

"I've discovered a new and interesting fact about you Allison Cameron." He said kissing her neck.

"What?" she answered just as lost for breath as before.

"You're horny in the morning." He growled as he rolled over her and slid between her thighs as he pinned her hands to her pillow on either side of her head.

She moaned loudly beneath him and slid her legs around his hips. "Exceedingly."

"But you said you wanted to take it slow didn't you?" he murmured huskily.

She whimpered loudly as his lips moved over her neck. "I did. I do. But I want you too." Her legs flexed and pressed him to her core harder. She tipped her head back and groaned. "I'm so confused."

"Sh." He cooed softly kissing her chin then lifting his body to look down into her eyes. "It's okay. Just take your time and we'll see how it goes okay?"

She nodded gently and relaxed a little more into the bed and his grip, her hands still pinned beneath his and her body pressed to the mattress by his. She used her right leg to rub along the back of his left as she felt his lips move down over her neck once more.

He moved her hands so he could hold them with only one of his so that the free hand could pull at the neck of his shirt that sat loosely on her body so that he could kiss her collar bone to his hearts content then cup her breast through the thin material.

"Greg." She moaned beneath him.

"What?"

"Let my hands go I want to touch you." She murmured.

House grinned against her skin. "Just don't touch Maximus you remember what happened yesterday."

"Okay. He's safe. I promise." She answered with a gentle smile as she felt him release her hands allowing her to slide them over his back.

"You are wonderful you know that? Utterly magnificent." He said his lips returning to her collar bone once more, his teeth scraping over her skin.

"Oh Greg." She breathed gripping his shirt and lifting her hips to his once more.

He sighed softly and stopped his touches. "You're going to be late."

"So are you." she shot back.

"Do you even know what you want Allie?" House asked softly his hands smoothing through her hair.

She sighed and closed her eyes. "I want you. But I want you for longer than just some quick fuck. I want you, all of you for as long as I can have you and I want to do everything I can to make sure of that."

"Which I guess means we take it slow then." House answered gently.

"As much as I'd like you to rip all my clothes off and…"

House pressed his lips hard against hers; he couldn't take anymore of her desperate and lustful words. The kiss was deep and long. Their bodies pressed together as tightly as possible and moving in ways that didn't leave their desires to the imagination.

"I'd like that too." He said pulling back from her, his breath harsh as it refused to stay in his oxygen deprived body. "But I want us to last more. Just promise we won't be waiting too long."

"You have my word." She said with a wide smile and slightly hazy eyes.

"Good." House said pressing his lips gently to hers once more before rolling off her and curling against her side. "Stay."

"I'll stay until you fall asleep." She murmured curling her arm around his neck and stroking his hair soothingly as their hands joined over her stomach.

"Em'kay." He replied sleepily almost dreading the prospect of waking up alone.
