Author's Note: I don't like the new team very much so I'm just gonna invent my own team for House and also sorry about the not following plot thing.
Chapter 2
House entered the conference room of the diagnostics department to find it completely void of doctors. He put Matthew down and watched as he ran into his office to find something to play with before he went over to the coffee machine. He was just about to put his favorite red mug to his lips when one of his fellows walked in, a Dr. Kirk Rae.
Rae was tall blonde and fairly good looking and had been working for him about two years now, ever since Chase became Head of Surgery and Intensive Care. According to the nurses He had nothing on Chase but he was definately more unbearable than Chase.
"Should you be drinking coffe?" Rae asked.
"I don't see how that's any of your business," House said taking a large gulp of coffee to make a show. The coffee wasn't as good as Cameron's but it wasn't as bad as Chase's either.
"I just thought with your..." Rae answered trailing off when he saw Matthew exit House's office.
"With my what?" House challenged the younger man.
"You know your...thing," Rae said feeling a bit nervous.
"You want to stop now before I find somewhere creative to put my cane?" House asked keeping his language clean for the sake of his young son who was only a few feet away from them.
Rae fidgeted and quickly moved to take a seat around the glass table. House smirked and continued to drink his coffee, it had been three months since it happened and his own wife gave him coffee and it was definately none of Rae's business what he put into his body.
"Daddy," Matthew said running up to his father, "can we go steal some toys from uncle James' office?"
"Maybe in a little bit Mattie," House told him.
Wilson had started keeping toys in his office ever since he started getting more and more reference from other hospitals for juvenile cancer patients. House and Matthew had made it a habit of stealing toys from him when they got bored.
"Okay daddy," Matthew said. He took House's favourite ball, the oversized red and gray tennis ball, and went underneath the glass table to play.
"Hi Rae," Matthew said waving up to the man.
Rae waved back with a fake smile, "Hi demon spawn," he said under his breath so House wouldn't hear.
Matthew only smiled sweetly back.
House didn't like Rae much but he decide to leave him for Matthew so he went into his office to listen to his iPod carrying his coffee mug. He was at his desk for barely five minutes when his other two fellows entered the conference room. Dr. Joel Corrodus a freckly red haired doctor who had been working for him almost four years since Foreman became Head of Neurology and there was also Dr. Parker Rerrie who was attractive in an over the top way, the only female on the team and had been working for House only three days.
Rerrie was the eight doctor to get the position on the team in the five years since Cameron had left and taken over the Immunology department. House was having a problem replacing her, a very big problem.
House was keeping an eye on Matthew so he saw them enter and he also saw the file which Corrodus,who he called Herring, was carrying. Still House chose to remain where he was hoping they would take the hint and leave him alone.
Of course they didn't, they sent the newbie in to get him.
"Dr. House," Rerrie said nervously.
House took out his headphones, "What?" he said forcefully causing Rerrie to jump, "This better be good."
"We have a patient," Rerrie told him nervously.
"And I care because?" House asked rolling his eyes.
Rerrie stuttered over her words trying to answer him.
"Herring!" House called for his fellow.
Corrodus came into his office and Rae made to follow him, but upon getting up he found himself falling face down. House watched him fall and smirked, Rae's shoelaces were tied together tightly. House couldn't help feeling proud his son, there was no mistaking that he was his.
"Rae pick yourself up you idiot," House said then turned on Corrodus, "Aren't you suppose to be teaching 'Trailer park Dr. Barbie' how to be less of an idiot?" he asked the man.
Rerrie looked disgruntled.
"Sorry Dr. House," Corrodus said.
"Yeah, yeah," House said, "patient tell me."
"23 year old female present with fatigue, double vision, hand tremors, joint pain and insomnia," Corrodus filled him in.
"And this is the best you got?" House asked.
"Cuddy said we had to take it," Corrodus said, "something about a broad member's relative."
"Really?" House asked excited, "You think it could be Doug Whittingham?" he asked, "then we could just let her die."
Rerrie looked disgusted, "Dr. House," she said taken a back.
Rae chuckled and Corrodus rolled his eyes.
House got up and limped out of his office and into the conference room, he grabbed one of his markers and wrote down the symptoms on the white board.
"Herring take Rerrie and get some blood from the patient while the class clown over there can get a complete history," House told them, "if the she's dying I'll be in the clinic."
"Seriously?" Rae asked in disbelief.
"I need some time off next week," House told them, "come on Mattie," House called as he left the the conference room.
Mattie rushed after him carrying the ball.
"Who is the kid?" Rerrie asked.
"House's son," Rae told her.
"Wait," Rerrie said surprised, "someone actually procreated with that guy?"
Rae and Corrodus laughted, Rerrie wasn't as bad as House made her out to be. Maybe she would last longer than the last woman who worked for House.
In the clinic:
"Alright Mattie," House said, "you got it? Just wait a little bit for daddy to go in the exam room and then come in ok?"
Matthew nodded. House smile and walked up to the nurse's station.
The Head Nurse handed him a file, "Exam room three," she told him, "and please be nice Dr. House."
House gave her his best innocent smile, "Me, I'm always nice," he said before limpimg off to the exam room.
"Jeff Reid, I'm Dr. House," he said entering the exam room, "what's the matter?"
The thirty something man on the table looked up at him, "Are you my doctor?" he asked.
"Wow!" House said, "Is it all idiots eve or something?" he asked, "What tipped you off? Was it the doctor part infront of my name?"
The man was about to reply when the exam room door was pushed opened by a nurse and Matthew came strolling in with his hands behind his back. The patient watched as the small boy walked up to the man infront of him.
Matthew cleared his throat, "Gregory," he said giving his best Greg House impression, "what are you doing in here?" he asked.
House screwed up his face and gave his best impression of a naughty six year old.
"Up," Matthew said still imitating his father, "go find your mother and do it now Gregory."
House eased of the the stool he was currently sitting on and looked down at his son giving him his best puppy dog eyes. Matthew pointed to the door and House limped out.
Matthew sighed and rubbed his forehead while he gave the tennis ball a bounce, "Children," he said looking up at the man on the table, "Do you have any?" he asked.
The shook his head.
"Well don't," Matthew told him before exiting the room leaving the man confused.
Outside the exam room Matthew ran up to his father and threw his arms around his good leg. House patted his son's head and chuckled, he could do this all day if just to see the patient's look of confusion again.
House took out his prescription pad and scribble on it, "Give this to the gaping idiot in exam room three and tell him to quit taking those little blue pills that he doesn't need, at least until he get his heart checked out.
The nurse took off to see the patient while House grabbed a file off the top of the pile on the nurse's station.
"Cathy Masters, Exam room one!" he called out.
A teenage girl got up and headed towards the room.
"Come on Mattie," House said smirking, "time for more fun."
Matthew giggled as he trailed behind his father as they headed to the exam room, "Daddy you are funny," he said as he bounced the ball and walked after his father.
House smiled, "So let me get this straight," House said, "daddy is funny but mommy knows best?" he questioned his son.
"Yes!" Matthew said with a hugh grin on his face.
House chuckled, "I can live with that," he said as he entered the exam room his son following behind him.
