Chapter 8: Talking with Wilson
.
Wilson entered his darkened office and switched the lights on.
"You know, these photos are really interesting if you ask me." Sounded House's voice making him jump slightly in surprise.
"Are you ever going to stop sneaking like that on me?" Wilson asked in frustration "And how long have you been here?"
"Sneaking on people is fun; I'm not going to stop." He said matter-of-factly looking up from the photos he was holding.
"You know what? You are not going to spoil my good mood." He said and went to sit on the chair behind his desk.
"And the big question here is, why are you in a good mood?" House inquired from his position on the couch.
"Because I am a human being and human beings tend to be in a good mood sometimes. I thought you had learnt that by now." Wilson replied making House roll his eyes.
"Seriously, you have to stop trying to sound sarcastic." He stated and looked at the photo in his hands again.
Wilson raised an eyebrow inquisitively, all the time watching him.
"What are you holding there?" he asked and House smirked smugly.
"I thought you would never ask!" he exclaimed and sat properly on the couch.
He took all the photos out of the envelope and searched for one in particular.
"In my opinion this kiss is the best of all." He said showing the photo to Wilson who looked at it with wide eyes from the shock.
"Where did you…"
"Get that?" House concluded seeing that his friend had a difficult time forming full sentences.
"You have no idea what you can get if you pay someone." He explained and Wilson shook his head, confusion evident in his eyes.
"What?" he asked in bewilderment watching House intently.
"Well, I didn't exactly pay for him, Cuddy did." He said confusing Wilson even more.
"What?!" he asked again in a high pitched tone.
"Relax, she doesn't know why I hired a P.I." he said seriously.
"And this is supposed to help how?" Wilson inquired.
"She doesn't know that I have proof of her relationship with you." House replied and Wilson buried his head in his hands, trying to calm down.
"You are unbelievable!" he exclaimed, his voice almost muffled.
"Tell me something I don't know." House stated with a smirk and Wilson just looked at him.
"This is not funny!"
"Oh, but it is…" House countered, the smirk never leaving her lips.
"House! You hired a personal investigator to follow me around to see if I was in a relationship with Lisa, how is this funny?" Wilson asked in frustration.
"Aha! You called her Lisa." He said triumphantly making Wilson groan.
"I need some air… or a drink…" he mumbled and got up from his chair and walked to the door.
"Close the door on your way out." He said to House and left without waiting for an answer.
House just stared at the door with a frown on his face.
He quickly stood up and followed Wilson out.
"You could have just told me." He said walking next to Wilson now.
"The thing is that I didn't want to tell you!" Wilson exclaimed, throwing his hands in the air in frustration.
"Why?" House inquired making Wilson stop dead in hi trucks.
"Do you remember what happened when I told you about every single one of my other relationships?" Wilson asked, looking seriously at him.
"What does that have to do with this one?" House said questioningly raising his eyebrows.
"It doesn't?" Wilson demanded.
"No!" House exclaimed and Wilson looked at him in confusion.
"Why?" he asked genuinely confused and curious now to hear what he had to say.
"Because I never liked the women you dated. I knew that every single one of your previous relationships was going to end disastrously! The one time I believed that it was going to lead you somewhere was with Amber. Although I didn't like her either…" he explained and Wilson just stared at him.
"What about now?"
"Do you remember what you told me when you found out about me and Allison?" he asked with a smirk and Wilson nodded.
"That it was about time…" he recalled.
"Exactly! It's about time!" he exclaimed and started walking away but stopped abruptly.
"By the way, you can have those, I don't need them anymore." He said with a wink throwing the envelope to Wilson who caught it.
Wilson shook his head a smile finding its way to his lips.
"You are crazy House!" he shouted and House waved his hand dismissively.
"Tell me something I don't know!" he called back and continued walking towards his office leaving a very amused Wilson behind.
"Look, it's my favorite black guy!" he exclaimed when he saw Foreman coming his way.
"Really mature, as always." Foreman commented with a smirk.
"You know me; I'm the king of maturity! Ask Allison, she will definitely agree." House replied, smirking back. "Where are you going anyway?"
"Allison asked me for a consult." He explained "With all these cases that Cuddy gave her she is swamped."
"I already knew that." House replied.
"Where are you going?" Foreman inquired.
"I'm going to pick up Beth from school!" he exclaimed and started walking towards his office again.
Foreman just stared after him for a while and then continued his way to Cameron's office.
He was searching for his keys on his desk when he heard a voice.
"House you have to…"
"Pick up Beth from school!" he exclaimed without turning to look at Cuddy and continued looking for his keys.
"Yes, that too, but I think I told you that the hospital wouldn't pay for an investigator just because you got bored of your other toys and you want a new one!" she almost yelled at him.
House looked up to look at her, her arms crossed in front of her chest.
"It was the last time you paid for him, I promise." He said with a smirk.
"House I need an explanation!" she demanded.
"U huh!" he exclaimed, ignoring her.
"What?" she asked him in confusion.
"Nothing, I just found my keys." He explained with a shrug.
"House…"
"Have you talked to Wilson lately?" he asked, interrupting her and she frowned.
"No." she replied, confusion evident in her voice.
"Then go talk to him and… don't come to find me, I will be busy. Goodbye Cuddles!" he shouted and exited his office, leaving a very confused Cuddy behind.

"Daddy!" exclaimed Beth and ran towards House who was waiting for her.
"Hey angel!" House said and took her in his arms.
"I thought that mommy was going to come and pick me up." Beth said with a small frown.
"She is really busy so she sent me! You don't want me?" he asked, feigning hurt and Beth kissed his kiss.
"I want you daddy!" she said with a big smile making him smile back.
He put her down and together they walked to the car. He helped Beth get into her car seat and he got into the driver's seat.
"I have a great idea. Why don't we go for a milkshake?" he suggested and Beth grinned in delight.
"Yeah!" she said happily and he started the car.
"Off we go then."
A short drive later they arrived at a small coffee shop and went to sit at a table inside the shop.
Beth decided to have a banana milkshake and House ordered a chocolate milkshake.
"Your mom is going to kill me." He commented, taking a sip from his shake and Beth smiled.
"Nah, mommy loves you." She said making House smile.
"So, what did you do at school?" he asked Beth.
"Not much. But I made a really good picture! It's in my bag." She replied with a smile and pointed at her bag.
"What did you draw?"
"A dog!" Beth exclaimed.
House reached for her bag and took the picture out looking at it.
"It's really good!" he commented, smiling at his daughter.
"I'll give it to Uncle Jimmy! He said that he was the only one who didn't have a picture in his office." Beth explained seriously.
"I think he is going to love it." House said.
His ringing phone caught his attention and he looked at the screen only to see Cuddy's name written on it.
"O oh…" he mumbled and switched of his phone.
"What happened daddy?"
"Nothing sweety, just Dr. Cuddy looking for me." He explained and Beth giggled.
"Does she want you to go to the clinic again?" she guessed and he smirked.
"Hey, I did my clinic hours… yesterday." He said and Beth laughed.
"Are you done with this? Mommy will be looking for us." House said and Beth nodded.
She took her bag that was resting on the chair opposite her and they walked back to the car and they drove straight to the hospital.
"Mommy!" Beth exclaimed when she saw Cameron at House's office.
"Hey sweety, how was school?" she asked and pulled Beth into a hug.
"Ok I guess." Beth replied "I made a picture for Uncle Jimmy!" she said happily and handed the picture to her mother.
"It's beautiful! Uncle Jimmy is going to love it." She said with a smile earning a grin from Beth.
"Why don't you go and give it to him? We are going to head home in a while." She said and Beth nodded vigorously.
She gave Cameron a kiss and then ran off to Wilson's office.
"Ok, where did you two go?" she asked House with a raised eyebrow.
"You got us…" he said, pulling her into a hug and kissing her forehead.
"We just went for a milkshake, that's all." He explained.
"Did you talk to Wilson?" she asked in concern and he nodded.
"Yeah, we are fine. I explained my reasons." He said and she looked at him questioningly.
"I'll explain later." He said kissing her lips softly. "What are you doing here? I thought you would be in your office." He commented, never letting her out of his embrace.
"I brought you a file… It seems immunological but something doesn't fit." She explained tracing the outline of his jaw.
"Goody, let's see it then!" he exclaimed and walked towards his office.
"You are gonna have to let me go you know." She said with a smirk, placing her hands on his chest.
"I don't need both my hands to read a file." He replied, his left arm remaining around her waist.
"Fine, do whatever you want." She said, resting her head against his chest as he read the file.
Meanwhile Beth was at Wilson's office. She knocked on the door and waited for an answer.
"Uncle Jimmy, are you there?" she shouted and the door opened revealing Wilson behind.
"And I wondered when you would come to see me!" he exclaimed when he saw Beth and picked her up.
"Don't I get a kiss?" he asked her and she wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him a kiss on his cheek.
"Hello Dr. Cuddy!" she exclaimed when she spotted her sitting on the chair in front of the desk.
"Hello Beth" Cuddy replied with a smile.
"I brought you a picture I made for you!" she told him, showing him the drawing she was holding in her arms.
"That's beautiful Beth! Thank you." he exclaimed, studying the drawing she handed him. "This goes straight on the wall." He said, smiling widely and putting her down.
Beth went to give Cuddy a kiss as well and then sat on Wilson's chair behind his desk.
"I think it's great here!" Wilson commented, studying the picture again.
"It's great." Replied Cuddy making Beth grin.
"I can make one for you too!" she said enthusiastically.
"That would be great." Cuddy said, smiling back at her.
Wilson moved to sit on the chair opposite to Cuddy.
"Your dad is here?" Wilson asked.
"Yeah, he is with mommy in his office. He said that you were looking for him." Beth said looking at Cuddy with her big blue eyes, so much like her father's.
"Great, now I won't be able to stay mad at him." She said making Wilson laugh.
"What did he do?" Beth asked curiously.
"Nothing sweety, he just has to give me some paperwork he hasn't done yet." Cuddy said and Beth nodded.
"Ok! I have to go now; mommy said that we would go home in a while."
She got up from her chair, kissed both of them and ran to the door.
"Bye Uncle Jimmy, bye Dr. Cuddy! I'll bring the drawing tomorrow!" she shouted as she left to head to House's office.
"She is absolutely adorable." Commented Cuddy with a smile and Wilson nodded.
"I don't think there is a single person that can say no to her." He said, a smile forming on his lips as well.
"Come on, let's go for lunch." She said extending her hand.
He smiled, took her hand and followed her out of his office.
