The next morning Lisa woke up 5 a.m. She turned around in her bed and reached over to the other side. It was empty. She groaned and turned the light on but didn´t get up right away. Instead she lay on her back and watched the ring on her finger. It was a small but nice ring and didn´t scream `engagement´ at everyone.
After a few moments she convinced herself to get up. The house was dark and quiet. Cuddy walked to her kitchen and found a small piece of paper. It was from Lucas.
L,
I had to leave for a case.
See you tonight.

Lisa smiled and poured herself a cup of coffee. She got ready and waited for Marine to cover Rachel so she could get to work.
Cuddy walked through the front doors at 7:30 a.m. and was greeted by Nurse Brenda. "Good morning, Dr. Cuddy." "Good morning, Brenda." Cuddy answered with a smile. "Oh. You are in a good mood today. Does it have to do anything with that beautiful ring on your finger?" Brenda asked as they walked into Cuddy´s office. As soon as Cuddy reached her desk she turned around. "Well, yes. Lucas and I got engaged last night. But I want to keep this quiet for a while. Not everybody needs to know this." Brenda smiled. "In that case, my mouth is shut. But you need to be careful, if you don´t want anyone to find out yet, because I know at least one person, who would notice this ring right away." Brenda said and walked out of Cuddy´s office. Cuddy´s smile faded and she turned her ring on her finger. She knew who Brenda meant. House was usually someone who´d notice any difference.
Cuddy sighed and sat down at her desk. She pulled the ring off of her finger and placed it in her desk drawer.
It was already 6 p.m. when Cuddy decided to go home. When she started packing she heard a knock on her door and Brenda walked in. "Dr. Cuddy, a crane collapsed on downtown Trenton. They need medical personnel from every hospital to cover the scene." Cuddy looked at her for a second before answering. That meant, that she probably wouldn´t get home as soon as she had hoped. "Alright. Who is still at the hospital?" She asked Brenda. "Well. Most doctors already left. Dr. Foreman is still here as well a few surgeons."
"Ok. Page all the doctors, who already left. Dr. Foreman and I will go to that scene as well as some of the interns." Cuddy said and took her phone to call Marina. Brenda nodded and left Cuddy´s office.
After a few rings Marina answered her phone. "Yes, Dr. Cuddy." Marina answered.
"Marina, I have an emergency coming in. I need you to stay a little longer." Cuddy told her.
"Ok, Dr. Cuddy. No Problem." Marina answered. "Thank you Marina. If you want you can take the guest bedroom ´. I have no idea how long it will take." Cuddy said. "Alright, see you later." Marina said and hang up.
After she called Marina Cuddy called Lucas to tell him that he didn´t need to come over that night. He agreed and told her that he would see her the next morning.
Cuddy grabbed her scrubs out of her closet in her office and started to put them on. When she pulled the top over her head, Cuddy heard a thud on her door following the sound of someone walking into her office. She turned around while tying up her hair.
