House's POV

Hearing the alarm I groan slightly as I turn it off and turn over, wrapping my arms around my secret girlfriend. Feeling her hand rub against mine I smile into her shoulder.

"You gotta get up for work."

"I can work from home today."

"No you can't, they'll know something is up."

Groaning I tighten my grip on her before kissing her neck, my hand moving between he legs. My hands find her clit as I rub small circles into it. She squirms a little in my hold as I leave small bruises on her neck. Her breathing hitches after a few seconds.

"House you're going to be la- Ahh~"

Chuckling in her ear as i continue, my finger finding her entrance as he leg goes over my hip.

"It doesn't feel like you want me to stop"

Rubbing her g spot with my fingers, my other hand holding onto her breast as I play with the hardening bud. Feeling her tighten around my fingers I smirk, her releasing soon after. She pants in my arms as sweat beads on her forehead, her face flushed.

She turns to kiss me, turning around as my hand is on her hip. Pulling her leg over me again my length wanting to be buried inside her as it throbs. Kissing her again I hold her close, adjusting her position to be closer to me.

Sheathing myself inside of her she makes another one of her delicious noises for me. Thrusting into her, she uses her leg to pull me closer, my breathing quickening from the exertion and the pleasure.

She wraps her arms around me tightly, her nails digging into my shoulders as she holds on. Feeling the same tightening feeling as before i smirk to myself, knowing she's getting close and the same feeling is getting me closer. Using my thumb to rub circles on her clit, she clenches down around me some more before I feel her release and shake. My own end coming not long after.

Holding her close as I kiss her again she looks at me before smiling. "Good morning to you too." She pants.

"Good morning, that's the best way to wake up."

"Will it hold you over until tonight?"

"Never does. Especially when it's your body I get to hold onto."

She blushes slightly before I kiss her again. Pulling her out of bed with me we head to the bathroom, taking a bath together, relaxing my leg some more in the process. Once we were out I got dressed, wearing a turtleneck as it was getting into the fall months.

Catching her looking at me I raise a brow. "what?"

She shakes her head before kissing me. "You just look good in a turtleneck."

Pulling her into another kiss I smile. "I feel so dirty lying to everyone" she looks up at me sadly.

Moving some wet hair from her face i sigh gently. "I know, but we have to." She nods gently before leaning her head on my chest.

"Why do you wear turtlenecks and not ties?"

"I no issue with bow ties and neckties. Just don't their essential for work, I'm there to do my job not look like a stiff."

My mouth curls slightly as I hear her giggle. "What do you want me to have for dinner when you get home?"

Turning around as I look at her, I hum. "Just you is fine." Leaning down to kiss her again I look at her for a moment before walking out of the door and heading to work, late as usual. Getting to work Cuddy tells me I have a week to figure out who I'm going to fire. I had tried to get out of choosing, taking forever at the very least but she really busted my balls about it. Tomorrow is (y/n)'s last day off and she'll be back, but I won't choose her to let go. She's safe, she's has enough torment for the week.

Breaking the news to the rest, foreman thought it was a mind game, chase and Cameron aren't sure about it. We'll see who slips up enough to be fired. Right now we have a ten year old girl that has a heart attack. (Y/n) burning in the back of my mind, Wilson and cuddy are still annoyed and giving me side glances. I wish I could tell Wilson but he'll go tell cuddy. So for now they get to hate me, but it's not really anything new.

Sitting at my desk as I go over some notes, the three in question come in to tell me that the girl has warfarin induced skin necrosis.

"The warfarin was given after the heparin."

"Who gave the heparin?"

"I did" looking to the Aussie I Barrow my eyes.

"Cameron did you give the warfarin?"

"Yes?"

"Did you measure the dose correctly?"

"Yes."

"Chase did you watch her?"

Silence. His silence was loud.

"Don't try and throw me under the bus!"

"Stop fighting over who messed up and go fix it."

They leave as I go back into my office. Hearing Cameron get on his ass for making her look bad to save his job. Opening the door to my office I look at them.

"Hey! Stop fighting over who screwed up and go fix the patient!"

Going into Cuddy's office, finding her and Vogler. "Who do you choose to fire?"

"Chase?"

"Chase stays." 

"You wanted me to choose, I chose." 

"The deal changed. Pick someone else." 

Looking at the two Cuddy looks down, knowing she can't do anything. Leaving the office I have Foreman and Chase check the kids body with an MRI for Cushing's. Finding the tumor on her pituitary gland in her brain, it gets removed and she's fine. Leaving for the day I sigh getting into the car. Sitting there for a moment before starting the car and driving home. Now I just need to figure out who to fire, Cameron or Foreman.
