House stood there paralyzed, he hadn't thought of what to say to her.

"Hello? Who's this?"

"Um, hi this is Greg from the speed-dating thing."

"Oh hi, I was wondering when you would call." She said with a smile, which he could hear in her voice. It relaxed him a bit; it showed that she was aware of that she could've called him sooner.

"Me? Why do women always assume that we men have to make the first move?" He said with a smile, it was nice to hear her voice again.

"Yeah, sorry about that but my dog ate the card with your number." He could hear the sarcasm in her tone.

"Uh, great deflection there. I like that." Holy shit, am I flirting with her? It had been a while he wasn't quite sure. He hadn't even flirted with her at the speed-date.

"You still there?" She asked, snapping him out of his thoughts.

"Yeah sorry" Again he was apologizing, what's with today?

"So why are you calling?"

He chuckled "Like you don't know"

She laughed, which did melt him a bit. "Mmmh, you're calling to tell me you fired your employee?"

"Good guess, but no. And this is probably going to shock you, I'm calling to ask you if you would like to have a drink with me or maybe watch a movie with me tomorrow night?" He asked and for the second time he was nervous. This was what he dreaded, what if she said no?

"Yeah I'd love to. I just have to see if I'm free tomorrow night. Otherwise we could meet on Saturday."

"Yeah sure, if Saturday is better for you. I don't really care. My therapist says I just have to meet you." The last part slipped out of House's mouth before he could stop himself.

"Therapist huh?"

"Yeah I didn't mean to tell you that just yet. Um, are you sure you still want to meet me?" His heart was pounding in his chest.

"Don't worry I'm sure I have some stuff that would shock you too." He relaxed visibly, but was curious of that other stuff was she mentioned. "Well anyway I'm free tomorrow night, so let's meet at the cinema on 30th street and there's a bar right across it, so we could do both."

"Yeah that sounds great. So I'll meet in front of the movies at 7:30?"

"Yeah, I'm looking forward to see you again." And with that she was gone. He knew now what people felt like when hung up before they could say something and it wasn't a nice feeling. But he also smiles, because he couldn't wait to see her either.

Later that night Wilson and House had just finished eating their dinner, when House decided to tell Wilson about tomorrow.

"So what are your plans for tomorrow? It's Friday you got a date?" House asked even though he knew that would be spending the night at the hospital, because of a patient that needed to hold Wilsons hand.

"I have to go to work. So you can spend the whole night with your porn-collection!"

"No need for that. I've got a hot babe waiting for me." House said waiting for Wilson to give him a lecture about inviting hookers to the loft.

"What?" His voice rising a bit "I told I don't want one of your hookers here."

"What's the problem? You're not going to be here." It was fun to see the annoyed face that stared at House right now, it was very hard not for him to smirk.

"I don't care. This is my loft and I don't want your hookers here."

"Oh relax. Actually I've got a date." With that said House limped to the kitchen and started to put their dishes in the dishwasher.

"You've got… Seriously?" Wilson asked him following him into the kitchen.

"Yeah. You know the woman that laughed at me actually left me her number and I called her today." He said without looking at him, because he knew that Wilson was grinning like an idiot behind him.

"Well this is great… Where're you going?"

"Movies and drinks later."

"Great. Are you nervous?"

"A little…" Finally looking up at Wilson "But I'm tired of not having someone in my life. Now that Cuddy has moved on, I want to do the same."

Wilson was shocked to get an honest answer from House. But he was also happy for House that he finally could move on from Cuddy.

"Well I'm happy for you." And with that said Wilson left and went to his bedroom.

"Yeah me too." House said quietly to himself with a smile on his face.
