Lisa Cuddy finally ended up at trang chủ after a long stressful ngày at the hospital thanks to House upsetting another parent of a patient. She spent the whole ngày cleaning up his mess trying to keep the parent from suing House and the hospital. In order to relax she went and started a bubble bath to ease all the tension from the ngày away. After the bath it was late and she was tired so she decide to get ready for bed.

At 2 a.m. she is woken up bởi someone obnoxiously knocking on her door and ringing her doorbell. She sighs knowing exactly who it is and wonders why he is here. She thought maybe 'if I ignore him he might lose interest and leave'. After twenty phút he was still going at it knowing she was inside. Letting out a big sigh she gets out of giường and puts on a quần áo, áo choàng to cover herself. Walking down the hallway she again wonders 'what is he doing here he doesn't have a case.' After reaching the door she slowly opens it and to no surprise House is on the other side.

She sighs "What do bạn want House?"

House smirks at her câu hỏi "You know what I want Cuddy."

Cuddy looks up perplexed at what he could want at 2 o'clock in the morning, but before she can di chuyển hoặc say anything else House quickly gives her a peck on the lips and backs away. They gazed into each others eyes and before thinking about it Cuddy reaches up and pulls Houses head down for a long passionate kiss. Both of them fighting for dominance their tounges fighting each other until they both had to break off so they could breathe. House pulled her into another Kiss and backed her up into the house shutting the door behind him with his foot. He turns around and pins her to the door. kissing and nipping at her neck. They are both so Mất tích in passion they are tearing each others clothes off as quickly as they can. While House was trying to get her pants off she realized and thought 'What the hell am I doing?!' Quickly thinking she needed to stop this before it went to far she did the only thing she could think of, and that was to push him away. House went tumbling to the ground.

After the shock registered House looked up 'What the hell Cuddy!? I didn't start this bạn did!'

Cuddy looked down at him with tears in her eyes. She wanted this so much, to much but the last time she let him in he broke her tim, trái tim and she never wanted that feeling again. 'House please leave.'

House stood stone still in the middle of her doorway 'Make me leave we both want this why are bạn pushing me away?'

Cuddy couldn't help but laugh in disgust at his comment. 'I gave bạn everything last time and bạn left House. How do I know your going to be serious this time? How do I know I'm not just going to be a fuck buddy?'

House looked away quickly and tried to contain memories of a happier time in his head. When he was happy and in tình yêu but he couldn't. House actually felt guilty about what he had done to Lisa Cuddy.

'Lise...' he tried but was cut off.

'Don't bạn dare bạn son of a bitch. Don't try and get all warm and feelings with me now I wanted it twenty years cách đây dammit. House just leave please before we say som ething we don't mean hoặc do something we'll regret.'

House finally relented turned around and opened the door. He turned and took one last parting glance at Cuddy trying to hiển thị her with his eyes that he was really and truly sorry about all those years ago. Then turned and walked out. As he was putting on his mũ bảo hiểm he could feel the trail of tears coming down his face. As House started the engine he wondered 'How did I let her get away, and how can I get her back after I screwed up?'

Once she heard him rev his engine she locked the door and finally let the tears fall. She slid down her door thinking about how much she wanted the man that would never tell her he loved her and if he did would she be to afraid to let him in again?
