Till the casket drops,
Till my dying day,
Till my heartbeat stops,
Till my legs just break,
Whoa, oh, whoa,
whoa, whoa, oh,
Whoa, whoa, oh,
Till the casket drops,
A house made out of glass will surely shatter,
So we built a fortress of red bricks and ladders,
The ground, it started shaking,
The bombs are falling,
We could've walked away,
We had a warning,
(ZZ Ward - "Till The Casket Drops")
Chapter 22: The end and the new beginning Pt. 1
House and Cameron woke up late that morning and the minute they awoke they ravaged each other. When they were finished they laid there naked and content.
"We are definitely having a lazy day, Baby." She nodded and they both went back to sleep. Around noon, their stomachs woke them and they proceeded to order some room service. They left the cart outside before going back to the bedroom. Stripping themselves of their robes and climbing back to bed. They slept once more before finally waking up around five to take their shower together. House was dressed in a black suit and white shirt but no tie. He wore some nice dressy shoes. Over the couch, laid the light grey double breasted wool coat. As per usual, House sat waiting for his wife to finish. He walked back into the bedroom and saw that she was wearing a lace white V-cut bodysuit teddy. The string on her crotch more noticeable as he saw her while getting dressed. She was leaned over the mirror and had just finished putting on some makeup.
She turned around while she was taking her dress off the hanger and saw him. She smiled before blowing him a kiss. Her dress was a lacy navy blue sleeveless that was backless. She slipped her legs in and pulled the dress up and walked up to him. She turned around as a silent prompt to zip her up. He complied and she turned around before walking to find her shoes. She found her red high heel shoes and put on her long black dressy single button trench coat. On the way, she picked up her silver clutch and walked over to him. They left the room and drove to the restaurant. They were going to see "Dido: Queen of Carthage" at the Globe. The showing was at seven thirty and the play was a little over two hours long. It was a short play so they would change and check out then they would head to their flight. They would end up in flight from London to JFK and Wilson would be picking them up to drive them back to their house. The family would be coming over Monday evening to allow them rest.
The car dropped them off and they walked into the Globe. They dropped off their coats in the cloakroom before going deeper into the theatre. Thousands of people were situated of all ages. The place was crowded and because they bought their tickets late, the only tickets available were the standing ones in the back. House gritted his teeth because the kids were unruly and the parents allowed them to be without consideration for other people. Cameron could feel the tension radiating off of House. Cameron pulled at House's hand and led him away from the noisy kids. He looked at her puzzlingly and they kept walking until they saw the bathroom sign. Cameron went inside to check for occupants and yanked him inside. She pushed him into the handicap area and locked the door. She led him deeper into the stall so if anyone would walk in they would not be able to fully see them.
"I could feel the tension off you. Those kids will never be ours and you will never be John."
"I know but it annoyed me how inconsiderate their parents were and how easily they forget their manners. I wonder if these kids even learned. Those poor elderly and I could see their frustrations."
"Try to ignore them and soon it will be over hm? We arrived early so how about a little fun? Hm?" His eyes gleamed. "This is going to have to be fast though okay?"
"Plenty of time. Strip, Baby." She removed her dress and she saw that he hung his jacket. He began removing his pants and shirt leaving him in his underwear. She walked towards him and he backed her against the stall door. Before she knew it, he ripped the offending material off and pulled his underwear low. "Wrap your arms and legs around me." She did and he pushed roughly inside her.
They heard noises outside so they moved swiftly towards the other side of the stall and continued on. Their mouths connected to prevent them from making anymore noises and they felt themselves become hotter. In and out, they moved together until they found their release. He eased her down and pulled his underwear up. He smirked at her before walking over to the trash bin that was just below the toilet. He quickly dressed and watched Cameron put on a white lace floral bra set as she continued to dress in front of him. "I think you're doing this on purpose, Ally."
"So? I like it when you watch me dress. It turns me on."
"Duly noted." She pulled her dress back on and walked out of the bathroom stall. House had a little skip in his step and Cameron leaned into him more as they walked back to where the play was held. Soon, it began and ended then House and Cameron were back to their hotel room. They were already packed and ready to go but decided to change for the flight back home. House changed into a plaid red and blue shirt and blue jeans topped with a grey sweater with three top buttons. He left them open as he pulled on his brown boots. He sat on the bed while he watched her get ready. She had just put on a pink and white lace eyelash bra which had rhinestones and little bows in the middle. She winked at him before picking up the matching underwear. She slid one leg in and then the other. She could see his eye darken but she continued on as she added the garter belt then added the nude thigh highs. She put on a short long sleeve grey turtleneck dress and slipped on her black suede shoes and her hobo bag. She wore her black military style jacket she had earlier that week before nodding she was ready.
They took a cab to the airport to realize that the flight was delayed because of engine trouble. They checked in their bags and waited for their flight to board. House texted Wilson to tell him and they leaned into one another to try to catch some shut eye. Cameron shivered and leaned to House more and House wrapped his arms around her and she wrapped her arms around his middle. Her head rested on his chest as she tried to sleep. She sighed before looking up.
"Can't sleep?" She shook her head. "It looks like they are about to board us." They heard another announcement to reveal that it would be another hour. Her eyes grew wide and House texted Wilson again to let him know.
"I surely hope whatever the problem with this plane is will be fixed soon." He nodded. "Wanna eat?" Walking over to one of the airport restaurants, they held onto each other before finding a booth seat. They ordered some burgers and fries and waited for it to arrive. They looked at the clock to see that it was just passed midnight. She placed her head on his shoulder but still found herself too awake. Finishing their food, they threw it away before walking back to the waiting area. They saw someone leave what looked like a closet and sneaked in. They began assaulting one another and soon their clothes fell to the ground. They looked around and saw that it was a small office and House picked up Cameron. He plopped her on the edge of the table and they attacked one another's lips once more. He stood between her legs before entering her wet center and time flew by as they ravaged one another. They had just climaxed when their flight was calling them to board in fifteen minutes. Quickly, House dressed and saw Cameron throw another set. "Hm! I didn't really like this one anyway but Greg, don't ruin this one okay?" She showed him the set. "Just don't rip it. I want to wear it again." He nodded. It was a black open back with Swarovski jewel detailing. She put the set on and saw his immediate reaction. "Okay, just try. I can always get another but I like this one." He spun her around and saw the crystals shine in the light.
"Are those decorated in the string too?" She nodded. "Comfortable?"
"Surprisingly, yes but ask me later." Her dress was quickly slipped on and they snuck out of the room and handed the flight attendants their tickets. They were situated in first class and found their seats. He gave Cameron the window seat while he took the aisle. The flight looked empty but the leather seats looked so comfortable. They were handed some champagne and they drank from the glass. The flight took off and the glass was refilled. Soon they drained the third and fourth glasses. They found that the chairs reclined so they pulled the lever and House pulled up the arm rest. She snuggled to him as their blankets draped over them. Her dress hiked up and House could see her underwear. He reached over to play with it. His hand went further down and he began pulling and tugging at it. Her eyes bulged but leaned further into him surprisingly turned on when his finger went inside her core. He pulled it and she saw the juices out of it. He licked it then kissed her so she could taste herself.
"Baby, I really like this one. Pull the dress higher up." She did and found his fingers in them as he kissed her while he circled her clit. She gripped his sweater as she felt herself let go while he pulled out his fingers and lick them dry. Their eyes filled with wanton desire. She fixed her dress and unbuckled her seatbelt. She picked up her bag and got up. She walked to the aisle and walked into the bathroom.
She looked around and saw how much bigger this bathroom was in comparison to the regular ones. She shook her head before pulling her dress over her head and soon she heard him knock. He entered and started to remove his clothing. Each time, getting closer and closer to her. His index finger urging her to come to him. She walked closer to him and his hand yanked her forward.
"Fuck hot, you are wife."
"Ditto, husband."
"I think I'm going to fuck you while you wear this little number. Do you mind?" She shook her head no. "Turn around, Baby and hold onto the counter okay?" She did and before long he was behind her as he pushed the string to the side and shoved himself inside. "Look at us, Baby." She looked up and saw how hot they were. She reached behind and pulled her bra off. "OOOH! Your perky breasts bounce as I fuck you from behind." He went deeper and she met his thrust as she swirled her hips. Faster and deeper they went and she pushed him a little to angle herself. She let go of the counter then and laced their fingers together. Following some thrusts, they came hard. They tried to regulate their breathing and Cameron pushed off of him to remove her underwear. She saw a bench and pulled him towards it before going on top of him. Her legs wrapped around him while they waited a few minutes. They began kissing and she reached below to stroke his penis. He hissed as she pumped him up and down. She flicked the tip and realized how stiff it became and aligned herself and slid down.
"Wow! You really are horny."
"Only for you. Your little act just turned me on and because of this flight I have to settle for two rounds of bathroom sex. I mean look at this bathroom. It is huge. There is a shower and this bench is comfortable as hell."
"I know, Ally. When we get home. We might not have our alone time like we did here but I promise we will okay?"
"Okay." She used her hand to stroke his forehead before leaning forward so hers would touch his. He began moving once more and she followed suit to move with him. "Oh Greg!" She kissed him passionately and her hands around his neck pulled harder. She arched her back while on top of him but brought her lips back to his as they felt themselves reaching their mountain peak. They continued for a few more times before finally stopping while their breathing slowed down. They were still kissing, their tongues touching and dancing with one another. They finally pulled apart and Cameron got up and looked through the cabinets. She found a little plastic trash bag and put her black set in. She smiled for their favorite set was saved. She tucked it inside the pocket of her bag and pulled another set. "I found it interesting that I knew to keep some sets in my bag. Do you think it's weird I put extras there?"
"No. Knowing us, it was definitely a necessity and besides we're not like normal couples so why bother comparing us to them. Hm?" He walked over and tipped her face. He kissed her lips and she smiled. "Go on. Let me see what you have for me." She showed him the set and he handed it back to her. She started with a black floral triangle gallon lace bra then slid on the little panty, which had a strappy detail.
"Do you like it?" She did a little spin before standing still in front of him.
"Yes. I do but then again I like most things you wear..most meaning except that horrible bathing suit." She laughed before pulling her short dress on once more. He gave the dress a little tug before reaching under to touch the string. "You don't mind do you? If I keep my hands under there while we are on the flight?"
"Are you hard again?" He nodded. "We have to take care of that. Go on. I'll be out in a few minutes. Make sure to bundle the blankets okay?"
"What do you have planned?"
"You'll see." She watched him walk out and hoped that they would not get caught with what she had planned. She followed him out and went to her seat. She pulled the blankets to secure them before making him turn his body to hers. She pulled her dress up to her waist while pulling him to her. "Unzip and line it in. We have to be careful because we can't get caught okay?" He nodded and slowly he unzipped and pulled himself free and pulled her underwear to the side once more before sliding in. They quietly moaned but did not move. They kept their positions that way while they slept through. There were more coach fliers than first class. In fact, they were the only ones. They were awakened and were told about the little room. It had a mini-shower and a decent bed. They had a change of clothing in their carry-on and brought it with them. They were too tired so they wore their underwear and resumed their positions from before and slept. Halfway through the night, they managed to have some passionate sex and cuddled soon after. They were awoken to get ready. They woke up and got into the tiny shower and somehow they made it work. Coming out of the bathroom, House pulled on his boxer briefs and socks while pulling on a white dress shirt and clean black jeans with his sneakers. He sat on the bed. Cameron was leaning against the bathroom counter adding some make up on. She had a teal mesh and lace trim bra that was tied in the back with a matching g-string. She walked over to the bed and House tugged on the string around her waist. She giggled before pushing him away so she could dress. She pulled on a black sloping v-neck dress and pulled on her suede boots once more. There was a knock just as they were finished and were told that they only had an hour left before landing. Cameron smiled and pulled House back to their aisle seats. Cameron looked on apprehensively but excitedly. She wondered about the possibilities but hoped for the best. House pulled her to his back and hugged her from behind. He was playing with the hem of her dress but kept his hands on top of her dress. She looked behind him to see that he too was thinking. She gave him a quick kiss before snuggling to his embrace.
The flight landed and soon they found themselves in the baggage claim. Wilson stood there next to Rachel and as soon as the couple neared them they hugged. Rachel embraced her sister.
"How was the honeymoon?"
"Short."
"So given that I know how you two are I will be surprised if you are not pregnant." Cameron shrugged and looked behind her to see House. "We talked about it and if it happens it happens but we prefer it be next year." Rachel nodded.
"So, what you get me?"
"Rach, we found this nice little shop in Paris and they have a website. Marie, the co-owner is so sweet. It is where we bought your presents." She looked at Rachel and Wilson.
They walked towards the car and loaded up their bags. Rachel commented that they seemed to have bought more since they bought two more luggage. Cameron reminded her that their family was big and they needed to buy souvenirs for all of them. Wilson told House and Cameron that Tyler and Lizzie took Chase's old apartment while Joyce and Blythe took Cameron's old apartment that was surprisingly vacant once more. House and Cameron looked at one another and then shrugged. They were informed that they were not due back in until Thursday that week so to use it to adjust with the time changes. They stopped over to the DMV and social security office to change their statuses from single to married. Cameron also decided to update her passport since it expired that very same year. After a few hours, they were on the road once more and on the way back to their house.
Upon arrival at their house, Wilson told them that the house was fine and Mozie missed his parents. They went inside and turned off the alarm system. They were greeted by Mozie. Wilson and Rachel left them to rest and were informed that the family would be in to see them tomorrow. There was already food but it needed to be heated up so Cameron turned on the oven and went upstairs to change while House let the back door out for Mozie. She changed into a sheer black halter babydoll that also had a hook closure as well as a tie just above her underwear. It looked a bit of an apron and giggled because she remembered House wanting to see it. She tidied up around their bedroom and bathroom before going downstairs to pop in the lasagna that Blythe and Joyce made. She was tidying up downstairs and began vacuuming. House looked at his bride and smirked. He had just come back downstairs just as he stripped to his boxer briefs.
"Baby?" She looked up. "What are you doing?" She stopped what she was doing and pulled the lasagna from the oven.
"I was cleaning." He nodded. House grabbed some plates and added some lasagna to them. He carried the plates to the table while she grabbed some wine glasses and he uncorked the wine before pouring it into the glass. "I just want it nice for when we have visitors again tomorrow. I know they have been in the house since then but I just feel the need to clean up. You know?"
"Sure and I'll help." He pulled her to him and had her sit on his lap. "Then later, we'll have some couple time. Hm?" She nodded enthusiastically as she ate her food. He kissed her head before resuming eating. Once they were done, they worked together to clean up the kitchen. When they were finished, she walked to the laundry room and began doing the laundry. House began unpacking their luggage and then took the laundry out of the dryer. He began folding them on the couch while watching television and Cameron came in to help. Once that pile was finished, they put it away and waited for the next load of laundry to fold. Snuggling in front of the tv, Mozie came up and hopped up to them. He snuggled to Cameron while she petted her baby.
"You missed us didn't you, Mozie? Mommy and Daddy missed you too." They heard the beep of the dryer and House went over to get the next load with the hamper. They folded it together with Mozie in between them. Hours went by and found them having more left over lasagna and soon it was time for bed. House locked up and let Mozie out once more while Cameron tidied up around the house once more. House came back to find Cameron lying down on their bed. They had just changed the sheets - Blythe had taken their comforter to the dry cleaners. They could smell the clean smell of the comforter. He lied next to her and reached over to turn off the lights. Mozie jumped up next to Cameron to snuggle next to her while House pulled Cameron to him. She arched her little tush as if she knew what he needed. He reached under the ties and tugged the underwear to the side. He pulled himself free and slid inside her from behind. He reached under her babydoll to cup her supple breasts and gave them a little squeeze. Despite all of his movements, she did not wake up. Pulling her close and kissing the back of her head, she sighed as she slept on.
The next morning the couple found themselves waking up earlier despite experiencing some jet lag. They showered together and House put on clean underwear and opened the back door for Mozie. Cameron changed into a stretchy lace teddy with Rhinestones which were situated down the center. The sexy little bodysuit exposed more of her breasts as the lace went straight down on both sides forming a large V and the lace panels were supported over the neck as well as the bow right below the string on her waist. She put on a short kimono robe and loosely tied it. She would let him open to see what she had underneath. She grinned. She saw him as he was making breakfast for the both of them and walked over to him. She embraced him from behind and felt him reach over to turn off the flame. He had just finished making some omelets for the both of them. He pushed the pan up front before spinning her around. He untied her robe and his eyes grew wide and began assaulting her neck creating another mark. He moved them to the counter near the sink and picked her up while she wrapped her legs tightly around his waist. Pulling on his neck, she pulled him close and took her hands long enough to drop his underwear low before replacing it back to where it was. His eyes roamed her and he felt her palm him. She gave his member a little tug to let him know what she wanted.
"Okay. Okay. Bossy today? Aren't we?"
"I think the teddy made my intentions clear what I wanted, Greg." She smirked and moaned when he entered her. He pounded her hard and quick. He picked her up and backed her against the refrigerator and continued on. He picked her up once more and set her over the counter as she allowed him to continue to fuck her right then and there. He attacked her breast as he added new marks on both her breasts as well. "Ohhh oooh ooh! Greg! GREG!"
"ALLY!" He didn't pull out of her and continued to kiss her. After a while, they fulfilled their third round screaming each other's name while unhearing the door open. They were still preoccupied with one another and were about to go again when they heard a sound.
"And I got pregnant? The way you two go at it and I'm the one who got pregnant? How unfair is that?" The couple looked at Jen in shock. Cameron quickly covered herself with the kimono and righted House's underwear. She refused to look at Jen out of embarrassment and quickly dashed up to the bedroom.
"You're pregnant?" Jen nodded.
"She's upset. Isn't she?" He sighed before nodding.
"You know how sensitive she gets with what people think of her. She already did not like how you all spoke to her that spa day." He looked up and sighed again. "I'm going to check on her." Right on cue, Rachel came in and noticed the tension. They quickly filled her in and Rachel sighed as well.
"I'll go check on her." House made a move to go after his wife. "Greg, it's fine. You can come check on her in a few minutes okay?" He nodded but kept looking up to where Cameron went. Rachel went upstairs to check up on her sister.
"I am sorry, Greg. I'm hormonal. I didn't mean for it to come out this way." She rushed after Rachel. House stood there in shock and wondered what to do. He decided to give them a few minutes before going up to check on the three women.
Cameron was lying down hugging Mozie to her. She was quiet and unmoving until she felt the bed dip forward twice.
"I heard what happened Ally. Don't think anything of it. We are just picking on you. We are so happy for you and sometimes we are a bit jealous but really we mean no harm. I am sorry you felt uncomfortable over the spa and I wished you told us about it but I get why you didn't. Our family really did a number on you. I'm sorry baby sister." She hugged her sister from behind.
"Ally?" Jen asked. "I'm really sorry. I've been hormonal and this thing with Robert has me so confused. It is inexcusable but I just wanted to tell you I'm sorry." Cameron nodded. "You look really hot in it. I get why Greg attacked you." She smirked.
"We attacked each other. We are still newlyweds after all and we turn each other on. I love him and he loves me."
"There is nothing wrong with it and I'm sorry we made you feel that way. I'm sorry I made you feel that way just now. I did not mean it. I really did not."
"It is okay Jen." She slid up to sit up and picked up Mozie. "It's okay, baby. Mommy is okay." She looked at the two women. "He came after me when I ran up here."
"Just like his daddy. Greg is pacing you know?" Cameron nodded and she looked down. "Ally, I'm pregnant but I get this feeling Robert isn't ready."
"What do you mean he's not ready?"
"He's acting funny and I feel like we moved a little too fast."
"Did you talk to him about it?"
"No but I see the signs everywhere. I am not sure he loves me, Ally. I want what you and Greg have and I feel like he might not love me like he loved you."
"If he does not then it is his loss. I am not leaving Greg for him. I told him that when I asked for annulment. It was a mistake and it was always Greg. I've always been his."
"And I've always been yours." They turned to see an anxious Gregory House. Cameron smiled at her husband. "You okay, Baby?" She nodded. Her hand reached for him and the girls scooted over to make room for him. She snuggled close to him. "I love you, Ally."
"I love you too." She felt misty. "I'm okay but misty." She smiled up at him. She turned to Jen and Jen nodded. "Greg, Jen was telling me about what happened with her and Robert."
"I heard as I came up. You can stay here, Jen. You know you can." His cousin nodded.
"You two just got married and I do not want to intrude."
"You are not intruding and if you want to you can stay here until you get yourself sorted."
"Okay. I just do not know what to do." She was crying then and Rachel and Cameron wrapped their arms around her.
"Is this what you were hiding from us?" Asked House.
"Part of it. You missed so much because we did not want to interrupt your honeymoon."
"I get that but we are a family and you can't keep stuff from us and expect us not to worry." Cameron stated. "I was so worried."
"What did we miss?" Asked House.
"Maybe we should call everyone. This might be easier if we tell you two together." House and Cameron nodded. Rachel and Jen left the bedroom so that House and Cameron could get dressed. They showered together quickly and House put on a black and white stripped dress shirt with grey jeans. He put on his black shoes while he waited for Cameron.
She was just putting on a black and white floral print bra that had a front hook detailing as well as back enclosure. House was watching her slide up the matching g-string panty and smiled how beautiful she is. She didn't realize it but she was so beautiful. She put on dark leggings and he pouted. She saw him through the mirror as she put on the black and grey half-sleeved sweater dress. It had an open back but the dress had two buttons. She buttoned them before slipping on her black suede strappy shoes.
"No thigh highs?" he asked. She giggled pulling him to his feet.
"Greg, our family is coming and I do not think they would appreciate you feeling me up in front of them."
"Hm…"
"I'll make it up to you later okay?" He grinned widely. They picked up their presents and walked down the stairs. They saw Rachel wiping up the counters and the refrigerator. House and Cameron saw that the pan was now clean and put away. "Thank you, Rach." Rachel nodded. The group came in with food as they began to sit down. House and Cameron resumed their sitting arrangements while they saw their plates placed in front of them. Cameron picked up House's and turned around to give it to him. She pecked him before turning around to pick up her own food. House kissed her head as he resumed eating. He was rubbing her thighs but inadvertently smudged them with food. He smirked and she gawked at him. He was picking at it and caused a tear. She got up from his lap and excused herself to go upstairs.
Upon arriving upstairs, she smirked while removing her shoes.
"I guess he gets his wish after all." She removed the ruined leggings and threw them in the nearby trashcan. She went to her dresser and pulled open the top drawer and pulled out black thigh highs and slid them on. She shrugged at not having a garter belt and then slipped her shoes back on. She walked over to the mirror and checked her reflection. Feeling satisfied with her reflection, she went back downstairs.
The group looked up upon her return but she did not pay them any mind as she placed herself back on House's lap. She turned her head and whispered in his ear.
"You got your wish, my sexy husband." She turned her head and House pulled her closer. She could feel his hot breath but picked up her plate once more to finish eating. After a while, she and Rachel began picking up everyone's plates and went to retrieve the dessert, which was a carrot cake. The cake was cut and passed around the group. House and Cameron shared their piece with one another as they fed each other pieces of the scrumptious cake. A piece of icing was on the side of Cameron's lips and House kissed her lips.
The group looked at them and wondered how long the couple would realize they still had company. Rachel cleared her throat.
"Anyway…" Rachel spoke while smirking. "We wanted to speak to you about what happened. We waited because what we are about to tell you is pretty bad."
"Why don't we clear all of the table and pass out wine or coffee for anyone who wants it?" Blythe suggested. They all agreed and Cameron went upstairs to go to the bathroom since Jen occupied the downstairs.
House followed her inside as she was washing her hands. He came behind her and felt under her dress. He moaned when he felt her underwear under. He pulled the dress higher to see the string.
"Greg? Baby, they are waiting for us."
"Just a few more minutes…" He pushed her against the sink and kissed her hard. He was still playing with her underwear before Cameron pushed him gently.
"We'll play later. I promise. You can have your fun later. I promise." He nodded resignedly. She pulled her dress down after fixing the string a bit before washing her hands once more. "Wash your hands, Greg and let's go back downstairs." Upon seeing his dilemma, she sighed then smiled. She quickly unzipped him and pushed both items down to his feet. "We are going to do this fast, Greg." He nodded before pulling her dress over her head and shedding her set off her body. Picking her up, he entered and they soon were riding each other fast. He put her on the counter.
"Put your legs on top of my shoulder. I can't hold it, Baby. I'm sorry."
"It's okay. I'm right with you." She did as he asked and he pounded into her hard and fast. To muffle themselves, they kissed while they continued to ride their orgasms. She looked at the clock and saw that they were gone for over ten minutes. "Ten minutes, Greg…" She laughed before quickly putting her underwear in the hamper. "Hurry and get dressed." He pulled his pants back up while she rushed over to pick up another set. She quickly put on another fishnet cage bra that had a cut-out design with a mesh band while doing the same on the underwear. House handed her her dress and kissed her. "Thank you."
"No, thank you my hot wife." He eyed her set before looking away. She pulled him to her.
"We'll play more later." They smiled at one another and she quickly put her dress back on. They walked out the room and down the stairs.
They walked back into the room hand-in-hand a few minutes later and situated themselves in the dining room once more. The group acted like they did not notice and were quietly drinking their beverages.
"Okay, what is going on? Why is everyone so quiet and why are you all looking at one another?" House asked. The group was so hesitant and the room was filled with tension. They were also suddenly refusing to look at House and Cameron.
"Greg…"
"No, Baby. Something is up and they are acting funky."
"Ally?" Rachel cautioned forcing Cameron to look at her. "Mom, Dad, and Eve are coming next week."
"What? Why?" Her facial features changed and her breathing became rapid. House was rubbing her back and she turned her body so she could rest her head on House's chest.
"Shh...Breathe. Ally. I'm here. Shh...Breathe. That's it. Just listen to my heart beat and use it as a guide." He felt his shirt moisten and tipped her head to will her to look at him. He wiped her tears away and pecked her moistened lips. "I promise you, whatever they do will never drive me away from you. We'll deal with it together. Hm?" She nodded and he pecked her lips once more. He was rubbing her back as she leaned into him once more.
"Ally, Uncle Hal and Aunt Helen are dead. Helen died in the fire up at their family cabin while Hal died in prison. It is why Mother is coming. She is coming for the funeral and memorial service." Cameron looked up and her eyes bulged open.
"What?"
"They died a few days ago but we didn't know how to tell you and we decided that maybe this conversation was best face-to-face. We didn't want to tell you by the phone. It didn't seem right at all." The words passed through her but her head wasn't in the now. She tried to get up and made it a few steps before fainting. She faintly heard House calling her name as she felt him hold her in his arms. Then it all faded as she allowed the world to temporary fade away.
