Disclaimer: I don't own House which is probably for the best.
Wilson stares at his door and lets his mind wander. He really should be doing his work but he can't seem to concentrate. What is taking House so long? True it had only been, he checks his watch again, two minutes and seventeen seconds, but still. He gets up and paces. Not much room, but pacing helps clear his mind. He is sure House is fine. No reason to panic, it's just been two minutes and fifty-five seconds. Wilson heaves a frustrated sigh. He can't go on like this. He needs to take action.

Brenda sticks her head out the exam room and sees Cuddy just coming out of the stairwell walking towards the clinic. She ducks back in and leaves the door slightly ajar. Soon enough she hears Cuddy's kick ass pumps clicking on the floor. When she sees Cuddy walk right pass the door she reaches out and pulls her in.
She closes the door and puts Cuddy's back up against it. Brenda looks at her catch. Absolutely stunning. Her eyes rove around on Cuddy's face. She stops when she gets to her lips. She feels an intense desire to kiss those sweet tender lips. When Brenda's face is only a few centimeters away she breathes in deeply. In that moment Cuddy pulls on the door handle and they both tumble out.

Foreman and Taub don't find Cuddy in the clinic so they try her office. After a tentative knock and poking their heads in they confirm she isn't in there either.
"Now what?" Taub asks and before they can come up with any plans they hear a commotion out in the clinic. They rush out there and see Cuddy and Brenda on the floor.
"Looks like we found them," Foreman says and offers a hand to Cuddy while Taub offers one to Brenda.
"Uh, House needs to see you," Taub says awkwardly to Cuddy. She nods and looks relieved. This may the one time she is thankful for his interruption. Not that she would tell him that.
When their elevator finally gets there, only one person gets out. Foreman sees who it is and is unable to give a bright, "Hi Chase!"
Chase gives a slightly confused hi back and goes on his way. Foreman looks after him for a second before he reminds himself that he is not in love with Chase. He gets into the elevator and pointedly ignores Taub's smirk.
Foreman turns to Cuddy and asks, "Dr. Cuddy, I know this is going to sound bad but, did Nurse Brenda kiss you?" Why is it always him that gets the bad end of the stick?
She looks outraged for a second then suspicious. House must have something to do with it, she deduces. "No. Why?"
"Well…we'll explain it when we to the office," Foreman says.
Cuddy nods. She can wait but she's going to get an answer. Even if she has to beat it out of House with his own cane.

Cupid types his message to Aphrodite while Kutner watches and Thirteen just sits there. He is sending it through his e-mail account at . The name is kind of obvious but someone had already taken . He presses the send button when Cuddy walks in with Foreman and Taub trailing her. She sends a questioning glance to Cupid but says nothing.
"Alright," she begins when she sits down, "explain this."
All of the team, even Thirteen, who sort of turns her head, looks to Cupid. He takes a deep breath and starts to explain the whole ordeal to Cuddy.

House pauses at Wilson's door before turning the handle and walking in. He sees Wilson standing in the middle of the office and obviously deep in thought. About him he's sure.
When Wilson sees House, a wide grin breaks out on his face. House grimaces and closes the door behind him.
"Well? What do you want?" Maybe if he keeps his voice sharp, Wilson will take the hint that he doesn't want to be here. He doubts it, but has to try.
Wilson gets a puzzled look on face. He knew he had some reason for asking House to come to his office but as soon as House had walked in, being 6'2'' of gorgeousness and hot, he lost all thought.
Wilson lets his eyes sweep over House's body. He moves up and stops at his eyes. He has always appreciated those eyes. They were just so…so blue damn it. But that's where most people stop on his face even though he has so much more. A perfect nose; a long, deep philtrum, which he knew, because he likes knowing odd facts, the ancient Greeks called the love charm which he is now thinking has some merit; and lastly, those lips. Wilson suddenly feels he needs to meld with those lips, make them his.
"Wilson, if you're not going to say anything-" House is abruptly cut off by Wilson grabbing him and kissing him roughly. He freezes, in complete shock, then shoves Wilson away.
"Damn it!" House exclaims. Wilson gets a hurt expression on his face although House doesn't know this. He had cast his eyes downward as soon as he thought of it.
"House," Wilson chokes out and finds he can't finish his thought.
"Wilson and need you to guide me back to my office," House finally says.
Wilson is about to ask why, but decides not to. He feels like leaving House on his own and tending to his own broken heart but he knows he can't do that. After all, this is all his fault.
