Chapter Thirteen: Okay, Two Questions

After checking how Cuddy was doing, Thirteen headed back to House's office. She found him in his chair, hunched over the computer.

"Compelling porn?" House turned around slowly.

"That offends me. How could you possibly phrase that as a question? It doesn't even deserve an answer." House faked a hurt expression. Thirteen refused to smile at it. Don't give him the satisfaction. "How's Cuddy?"

"You know about that?" Her surprise lasted less than a second.

"The atmosphere of the hospital changes when her huge ass enters. I went to investigate."

"So you already know how she is." Thirteen was irrationally intrigued. "Why did you ask?"

"Fine, new question." House showed he was thinking bu scrunching up his chin. "Okay, two questions. Which would you like first?"

"Uh, the first one?" She shook her head and rolled her eyes at his idiocy.

"How's Cameron?" House searched her eyes for any reaction or expression. Nothing.

"Second question." She looked refreshed, as if pretending to start anew, refusing to answer the question.

"Why are you here?" He lent back in his chair and picked up his ball.

"I wanted to keep an eye on Cuddy."

"Are you sleeping with her too?" House's eyes shot open and he sat on the edge of his seat. He didn't realise how cliched his current position was.

"No! I'm not... I'm not sleeping with... No!" She was annoyed, mainly at herself for practically giving away that she was sleeping with someone.

"Cameron then?"

"No! Just leave it House. If I were getting any action don't you think I'd find a way to torture you with it? Maybe some censored pics...? Or a sound recording with no video?"

House stared at her. "So you are sleeping with a woman." Thirteen glared at him."Fine. See you tomorrow." He knew she was lying to him, but he could spend a little longer interrogating her.

Cameron was sitting at Cuddy's bedside when Thirteen entered. Cuddy was fast asleep, and Cameron looked tired as well. She smiled when Thirteen walked in, but didn't feel the need to get up. Thirteen walked over to the tiny couch that the blond was curled up on. She sat next to Cameron, and lent on her. They stayed there together, comfortably fitting together, perfectly. Neither acknowledged that they were still at the hospital, and did not seem at all shy of cuddling together on the small one-person couch.

They were both almost asleep when Cuddy woke up. She couldn't help but smile at the sweetness of the moment. The two women laying perfectly together, as if there wasn't a care in the world. She wasn't surprised when her eyes became slightly teary. Cuddy hoped desperately that nothing bad would happen to this relationship, but then she remembered all the hardships they were yet to face. She thought about the troubles if they did stay together. Being a gay couple could not be easy, but Remy was strong and proud, so Cuddy was optimistic. Cameron, as far as she knew, was straight, so she would need to face a few things on her path. And then, what would happen once everyone found out?

Cuddy finally realised that they were still in a public place, and Remy and Cameron were very 'cosy' together. The blinds were not quite shut, she saw Cameron's eyes flutter slightly. She thought about waking her and reminding them about the position they were in, but she just couldn't disturb them.

As she thought that, her face fell. She whispered to the two women, trying to rouse them, all the while keeping her eye on Chase, who happened to have glanced into the room.

Think about the cake! Please review. I did get a few people saying they wanted to know how Chase would react, let me know if that's what you want to see. Or do you think House should find out first? I also have some ideas for Cameron, but please let me know if you have any too =]
