Chapter 9- Test Results
Elena Amber, flashback 2014
It had been only five weeks since Seth died and we buried him. James Wilson and I had started dating after the funeral. James had shown up to comfort me and I had spent quite a bit of time crying on his shoulder that day but he did not say anything but just rubbed my back and let me get out my feelings.
I drove to the hospital and parked before going to James' office. I knocked on the door and he answered. "What are you doing here?" he took a look at me from head to toe, "Elena, what's wrong?"
I didn't say anything but I sank to the floor and began to sob. "I don't know, really," I said and he got on his knees and took my face in his hands.
"Come here," he said and swung me up in his arms and brought me into his office.
"What if I have it too?" I finally asked.
"Elena, only five percent of cases of cancer like Seth's are inherited. Most are environmental factors we have control over," he kissed my hair, "but we can test you if you like. House!"
A moment later House came through the door. Somehow I knew House knew this was serious. "What do you need?"
"Order an MRI for me," I heard James say.
"Okay I'll get Chase on it," House said and then pulled out a syringe and told me, "Look at Wilson, Elena." I did as instructed and James leaned in and kissed me. "Good," House said.
"What was that for?" I asked.
"It's to sedate you for the MRI."
I expected House to come back with a snarky comment after that not snarky answer but he did not. Instead he handed James a cup full of liquid, "To help relax her. Once you give it to her keep a hold on her. She'll be wobbly," and he held an oxygen mask over my nose and mouth.
"Elena," James put my head on his shoulder, "drink this for me, okay?" House lifted the mask from my face as I did as I was told and then put it back.
"Breathe in steadily Elena," House told me as he continued to hold the mask over my face and I breathed in the air. The room started to spin and I had a hard time finding James' face. James kept a hold on me with his right arm around my waist.
"Will it make me fall asleep?" I asked.
"Yes. Just close your eyes and go to sleep," James said and curled me up in his lap, "I'll take care of this."
"What if I have it?"
"We'll think about it if we have to," he said and I felt my body start to fall asleep under House and James' grasps and I gave in.
When I woke up I had lost sense of time but I was still in James' office sitting on his lap with his arms around me, but now I was in a hospital gown so that told me the tests were over. "Wilson, the MRI was clean," House was telling him.
"Elena, did you hear that?" James pressed his lips to mine softly like I was Aurora waking up from a deep slumber. "You're fine Elena. You're perfect. You're going to stay here for the rest of the day."
"I don't have it?" I asked.
"Nope," House said looking at the images as if they could change, "still no."
I laughed, "Go diagnose people."
House gave me a mock salute, "Yes General Victor," and he walked away. I laughed, that was more like House. James smiled at me and put something around my neck. It was a heart made from diamonds and a sapphire in the center.
"I had been meaning to give you this," he said, "and now is the perfect time; it's you're MRI gift."
"It almost gives the hospital attire I'm in a flashy look," I said.
"You pull it off well."
