House walked into his and wilson's condo and threw his keys down. He couldn't believe he had actually admitted that to Cuddy. It's not like she loves me back, he thought, Now things are going to be really awkward.

He walked over to the piano and began to play hoping to get his mind off of things, but it didn't seem to be working as his mind kept going back to thoughts of her.

House went to the cuisine to get a glass of water when he heard a knock at the door. He was curious who could be here this late at night. He walked up to the door and looked through the peephole to see none other than Cuddy on the other side of the door. He sighed and started to walk away from the door when she began banging on it again.

"House open this door now," yelled Cuddy. "I know your in there...come one House we need to talk."

House figured he might as well get this over with and unlocked the door and opened it. He leaned up against the frame not letting her in, but at least putting him in her view.

"Now what exactly would be so important that toi would come here this late at night? Shouldn't toi be at accueil with your boy-toy and your daughter," House asked.

"I came here because we need to talk and I'm not leaving until we do."

House sighed and rubbed a hand down his face. "Ok so talk," he commanded.

"Can I come in," Cuddy asked trying to look past him.

"No. Because this way if I don't like where the conversation is going I can just close the door. This is my way of physically and metaphorically keeping toi out."

Cuddy sighed, "House please."

House huffed out a breath and walked towards the living room leaving the door open. He went and sat down on the canapé and turned on the tv.

"House please," Cuddy a dit as she gestured towards the tv.

"Fine," House a dit as he turned the tv off and looked at her. "Now say whatever it is toi need to say."

"House...what toi a dit to me before...did toi mean it?"

"If I didn't mean it I wouldn't say it," House answered honestly. He figured being honest would make this conversation go faster getting her to leave quicker.

Cuddy just nodded and sat there for awhile quite. House just looked around the room at anywhere, but her.

"House...I do l’amour you-" Cuddy began, but House cut her off.

"Bullshit Cuddy. toi haven't shown once that toi do and I'm not gonna listen to toi lie to me for whatever reason," House a dit as he got up off the canapé and headed towards the door. Just as he was about to walk past Cuddy she grabbed his arm and spun him around to face her.

"House listen to me. I do l’amour you! It may not seem like it at times, but for some unknown reason I do. After all the crap you've put me through and I just can't seem to get over you."

"But...," House encouraged.

"But as much as I do l’amour you. We just can't be together. We would both just end up getting hurt and I can't put myself ou toi through that. I found someone who is there for me and truly loves me and isn't afraid to montrer it." Cuddy tried looking into House's eyes to read his emotions, but he kept his gaze away from her.

"Ok then," House a dit coldly. "Is that all ou is there plus toi need to say to hurt me with before toi leave."

"House I'm not trying to hurt toi I'm just trying to get toi to understand-"

"Understand what exactly? That toi "love" me, so toi say, but I'm unsuitable for your l’amour so we can't be together. I understand toi loud and clear Cuddy. toi can montrer yourself out," House a dit as he went to walk away from her, but Cuddy grabbed his arm again.

"House please. I do l’amour you, but it just wouldn't work. I'm trying to get toi to see that. I want to fix this so our friendship doesn't suffer." She kept trying to get a glimpse of his face, but he kept it hidden from her view.

House just bitterly laughed and finally looked at her. His eyes were cold, but full of hurt at the same time. "What friendship Cuddy? toi obviously don't support me, toi aren't there for me anymore, and now your telling me toi "love" me while at the same time basically telling me to leave toi alone. I'm not seeing the friendship there. toi can't fix what isn't there so your better off forgetting about it right now."

Cuddy couldn't get over the cold stare he was giving her, but she didn't feel she had made her point yet.

"House whether ou not toi think it I do consider toi a friend. Maybe not always a good one, but I do consider toi one," Cuddy stated as she put her hand on his shoulder. House just shrugged her hand off and walked away towards the window.

"House please just talk to me. I want to fix this," Cuddy tried again. House just remained silent not answering. He was hoping she would just give up and walk away, but it didn't seem to be working when she walked over to him and put her hands on his shoulders in an attempt to spin him around. He refused to turn around, but Cuddy didn't remove her hands.

What neither of them knew was that Lucas was outside the door. Being a P.I. he got access to gadgets needed to spy on others. He had a camera under the door looking in and all he saw was Cuddy with her hands on House's shoulders. He quickly stood up ready to confront them, having heard the précédant conversation, and picked the lock.

Lucas burst through the door and Cuddy and House quickly turned around to see who the intruder was. House just rolled his eyes while Cuddy stood there shocked and confused.

"Great now it's a party," House muttered.

"Lucas! What are toi doing here and why did toi just break in," Cuddy demanded.

"Well I was gonna come see toi after work, but toi weren't in your office so I went up to ask House if he knew where toi were when I saw him walk out of his office and toi standing there crying. Just as I was about to go rip into him though, I saw toi rush out of his office grab your stuff and leave. I followed toi and toi came here so I was sort of curious why my girlfriend went to another man's house. Let me tell toi it was quite the interesting conversation I heard."

House once again just rolled his eyes, but Cuddy on the other hand was furious.

"You had no right to treat me like one of your cases. toi don't get to spy on me just because your curious," Cuddy yelled.

"Oh really? I'm sorry if I was suddenly worried why my girlfriend was going to another man's house when he had just left her crying not that long beforehand," Lucas yelled right back.

House once again rolled his eyes beginning to tune them out. He thought this was stupid and he couldn't believe it was happening in his house. Just as he was about to walk away Lucas stalked up to him.

"I want toi to stay away from my girlfriend. toi got that," Lucas warned.

"That's kinda hard to do considering we work together there smart one," House sarcastically replied.

"Then find a new job because toi will not continue to be around her."

"Oh really? Isn't that kind of her choice and not yours," House asked as he gestured towards Cuddy, who just stood there watching the exchange.

"Don't mess with me House. I mean it. Stay away from her," Lucas warned.

"Oh and what are toi going to do," House challenged.

Before House knew it he was on the floor with a bloody nose. He hadn't honestly expected Lucas to hit him, but he had. Cuddy gasped and ran over to House to aid him.

"Leave him," Lucas demanded. "Let's go."

"What the hell has gotten into you! I'm not leaving especially not with you! We're done toi hear me," Cuddy yelled.

"What!? Your seriously going to break up with me because of him," Lucas asked.

"No I'm breaking up with toi because toi have suddenly decided toi get to make my life decisions and also because toi need to learn to accept the choices I make. toi obviously don't like the decision to keep House in my life, so before things get worse I'm ending it. Goodbye," Cuddy stated and she turned back toward House who was beginning to get up off the floor.

"Fine," Lucas stated as he walked out of the door and their lives.

"Are toi okay," Cuddy asked as she tried to inspect House's face. House just turned his head away and walked towards the bathroom off of his bedroom.

"Let me do that," Cuddy a dit as she reached for the washcloth House had picked up. She sat him down on the toilet and stood in between his legs cleaning the blood of his face. House would hiss in pain once in awhile, but it didn't take long to clean his face up since the bleeding had stopped.

"Thanks," House croaked.

"No problem," Cuddy a dit as she remained standing between his legs.

"Can I get up now," House asked as he looked up at her. He was beginning to feel awkward having her so close to him and the look in her eyes didn't help the feeling.

Cuddy put her hands on House's shoulders and leaned down towards his face. House sat there La Reine des Neiges unsure of what to do. He felt Cuddy's lips gently brush up against his and responded, but just as quickly as he responded he pushed her away.

"Don't do this," House a dit as he got up and walked out of the bathroom into his bedroom

"House what is it," Cuddy asked confused. She couldn't get over how right that Kiss had felt.

"You got here and toi were telling me how we can't be together, and now that your boy-toy just broke up with toi your s’embrasser me. I can't do this. I won't be your back-up," House a dit as he sat down on the lit and Cuddy quickly joined him.

"House. I understand why this seems confusing, but after that whole ordeal with Lucas, I realize what an idiot I was being. Why would I give up the person I l’amour just to settle? I don't know what I was thinking honestly," Cuddy a dit as she looked towards House.

"Cuddy..just give yourself a few days and toi will be feeling like an idiot again for wanting anything with me. Just forget anything ever happened and go accueil to your daughter," House a dit not making eye contact.

"House please. I want this. I know it may not exactly be the perfect time, but I don't wanna waste anymore time. We've already wasted so much," Cuddy a dit as she grabbed House's chin and forced him to look at her.

"Cuddy toi don't want this. toi just broke up with your boyfriend. toi aren't exactly in the right state of mind to be making decisions like this."

"I honestly don't feel anything. I know I should feel hurt after that break-up, but I don't. The only thing I'm feeling is what I feel for toi and I don't want to let that go. Please can we just try this," Cuddy pleaded.

"I don't get you. toi just kept saying when toi got here how we would just end up hurting one another and it's just not worth it, and now toi want to try it anyways. Your confusing me Cuddy," House stated honestly.

"I know it's confusing, but I honestly had no idea what would happend if we did get together. I see no reason not to try now. There is nothing stopping us except ourselves. So will toi please give us a try," Cuddy pleaded as she grabbed House's hand.

House sat there in silence unsure of what to say. He wanted to be with her so bad, but he didn't want her to regret it later. The last thing he wanted was to be a mistake to her.

"Cuddy the last thing I want to end up is a mistake to you. I don't want to end up hurting you, but....I'm willing to give us a try," House a dit as he looked up at her.

"You've never been a mistake House," Cuddy stated as she grabbed House's face between her hands and kissed him passionately.

He didn't know how things would work out, but if things felt the same as they did now he wouldn't have a problem with it. It was their version of happiness that nothing else could ever surpass.
