Duty called yesterday so I was unable to write a chapter, but don't worry because I have two for you today.

Breakfast In America

"If you are in love with me, then this conversation is over," House said to Chase. "I have told you a million times I don't want you."

"It is about Cuddy," Chase said. This got House's attention. "I heard her talking to Wilson a couple of minutes ago and she asked him about the lunch you two were having today and I could tell she got upset when Wilson said that you two didn't have plans for today. If you are going to use your friend as a cover for an affair, you might want to tell him next time."

"Why is Wilson at the hospital?" House asked. "He was supposed to go to some stupid seminar."

"It got cancelled," Chase said.

"When is the last time Cuddy has physically seen you?" House asked Chase.

"About twenty minutes ago," Chase answered him wondering what House was thinking.

"Get out of sight so that I can say I went to lunch with you," House said. The last thing he wanted to do was get Cuddy super pissed at him.

"I won't do that unless you tell me what you are doing and why you are lying to Cuddy," Chase said. He didn't want to lie to Cuddy if House was doing something bad. "And who is that girl in the background?"

House quickly thought about what he wanted to tell Chase.

"I am not doing anything wrong and I am at McDonald's right now and there is a really annoying girl in front of me who won't shut up," House said looking at Natalie. "If Cuddy found out what I am doing right now, she wouldn't be mad, but I don't want her to know right now." He hoped Chase would believe that.

"Are you buying her sex toys?" Chase asked with a smile on his face. "Oh, are you buying sex toys for Wilson?" He didn't really believe the story House told him, but he did believe that House wasn't doing anything wrong because he would have told him to mind his own business if he was.

"I am Cuddy's sex toy," House said causing Chase to shiver at the thought. Natalie started to laugh. "Apparently, I shouldn't say sex toy so loud."

"I will tell Cuddy I went to lunch with you only if you do something for me," Chase said to House.

"I will not be your sex toy," House said. "I already told Wilson no, so why would I say yes to you?"

"I want you to teach me how to ride your motorcycle," Chase said. He had always wanted to learn how to ride one, but he never had any friends that rode one, so he had never learned. House thought about it for a second.

"You do realize that it is February, right?" House asked.

"You were just riding it last week and it was colder out then," Chase said. "I want to go for a ride tomorrow morning."

"I will agree to this as long as when I go to Cuddy's place tonight, she believes your story," House said. "If she doesn't, no ride for you."

"Deal," Chase said. "If we don't go on a ride tomorrow, I will tell her that you forced me to lie to her."

"Fine," House whined.

House and Chase spent the next 10 minutes talking about what Chase was to tell Cuddy. Chase left the hospital and came back at 2:00. He waited in the parking lot until he saw House pull in. Chase then made his way into the hospital to make sure he found Cuddy.

"Remind me to never to have an all-you-can-eat buffet with House for lunch again," Chase said as he stood next to Cuddy.

"You went to lunch with House?" Cuddy questioned him. She had spent the last half hour thinking of every place where House could be.

"He forgot that Wilson had some seminar and he took me with him instead," Chase said. "I guess he needed someone to pay." He was saying everything House had told him to say. Cuddy smiled.

"Did he come back with you?" Cuddy asked.

"We took separate cars, but I saw him pull in the parking garage behind me," Chase answered her.

"What did you two talk about?" Cuddy asked.

"You," Chase said with a smile.

"What about me?" Cuddy asked.

"I was just joking," Chase said.

"You better be," Cuddy said.

"House said that he was going to take me for a motorcycle ride tomorrow," Chase said with a smile on his face. Cuddy looked up at him.

"If he agreed to do that, I would be careful if I was you," Cuddy said. "He will likely drive about 100 miles per hour." House had tried to take her for a ride, but she didn't want to go speeding down the road in icy weather. She kind of wondered why Chase would want to do that.

"That would be so cool," Chase said. Cuddy just shook her head. She would never understand guys and their motorcycles. She just hoped that House wouldn't kill himself or Chase. She didn't want two dead doctors.

House's Office

After lunch, House made his way to his office and started looking up different bed and breakfasts. He immediately crossed off the ones that said no TV. He didn't want the weekend to be a total drag. He then crossed off the one's that were designed to look like they were in the 1800's. He wanted to have electricity. He then came across the perfect one. It was actually a pretty huge house with 7 bedrooms. He knew that meant more guests, but he also knew that meant more places to hide from the other guests. It also had a hiking path on a trail around the pond behind the house.

"Nothing like a winter stroll to keep her hanging all over me," House said to himself. The only problem was that the place was 50 miles from Princeton. House would have to somehow think of a way to get Cuddy in the car with him without telling her where they were going.

I will have to think up another evil plan, House thought to himself rubbing his chin with his left hand. Then she will be mine. House picked up the phone and called the place. He lied and told them that they were a honeymoon couple. After House got off the phone, he started to play with his ball and thought up a plan to trick Cuddy into going with him.

"I am a genius," House said. He then looked up and saw Cuddy coming down the hall towards his office. He turned his chair around so that the back was facing the door. He took a deep breath and wiped the smile of his face. He didn't want her to know yet the plans he had for her. He wanted to focus on his plans for tonight with her.
