Your POV 

I stopped at my house on the way home, before going over to House's. Needing to grab a few things, maybe I should just move in with him. I practically live there already, be cheaper than having to pay on this place while I'm not even here. Sighing gently as I walk through the living room, trying to remember where my stuff is in my own home. Hearing the doorbell, I shake my head and walk over to the door. 

Opening the door, I stop in my tracks. He smiles at me as he shifts on his feet slightly, he was uncomfortable. But who wouldn't be when you're standing on the porch of the woman you cheated on. He opens his mouth to say something, I cut him off. 

"No."

"I didn't say anything." 

"You were going to, I don't want to see you." 

Grabbing my stuff, I step outside and close the door. Locking it before rushing past him. He follows as I put my bag in the backseat of the car, opening the driver door to get in. 

"I just want to talk." 

"We did, it's just not what you want to talk about." 

"Baby bird-" 

"No, you don't get to call me that. Go home." 

Getting into the car, I start it and leave him in my driveway, pulling my phone out I dial House's number. Holding it to my ear, it rings for a minute before he answers. 

"Tell me you're home?" 

"I would be at work, but you're not there." 

"Greg." 

His voice lowers, the slight tinge of worry. "What's wrong?"

"I'll tell you when I get there." 

Hanging up, I pull up in front of his apartment. Wiping my face I get out and grab my bag. Going inside and reaching  for the doorknob to House's apartment. Before I could grab it, the door opens and House is looking at me. Pulling me inside he wraps his arms around me, holding onto him, the tears fall. 

"What is it?"

Shaking my head as I lean into him more, shaking slightly. He rubs my back as he leans on the back of the couch, trying to get me to calm down before asking more questions. Wiping my face as I sit on the couch, House sits next to me. Pulling me close to him again, holding his hand as I he puts his arm around me. 

"When I was getting some things from my place, my doorbell rang. When I answered it, I felt my heart go through the floor. Michael was at the door, he wanted to talk." 

He sighs as he rubs my arm with his hand. "I know a guy, who knows a guy, that can get rid of him." 

Shaking my head I look at him. "I'm sorry he showed up. I was really sure he wouldn't have." 

"My ex shows up married, wanting me to fix her husband and now works at the hospital. Yours shows up, but we don't know what he wants." 

Sniffing slightly I smile. "We're both giant messes aren't we?"

He shrugs. "At least your legs work." 

Hitting his leg lightly, he smirks before kissing me. "Why don't you sell your house?"

Looking at him I blink for a moment. "Are you asking me to move in?"

He looks down before nodding. "It's a win win, I can have sex with you whenever I want, and Michael won't be able to find you." 

Smiling I kiss him gently. He pulls me closer to him and smiles to himself. "Is that a yes?"

"It is. I'll get the house appraised soon. Do you think there's room for me here with you and your ego?" 

"Was that a shot?"

"Just a little one" 

He laughs as he looks at me. "I love you, I wont let him come around you." 

I smile gently as I nod. "I love you too, and if he does, don't catch a charge." 

He shrugs slightly, smirking as I know he'll promise nothing on that regard. Getting up I follow him and he glances at me, raising his brow before hugging me gently. 

"I'm not going far, you can relax." 

"I know, just anxious from him being in town." 

"If he doesn't know you have a new boy toy, doesn't know where i am, then he can't find you." 

Nodding gently, I look at him. "Why must you use your logic on me?"

He shrugs as he pulls me into a hug. "It's what I do."

The next days were uneventful. That was until Wilson came into the office to ask me if I knew why House needed to borrow 5 grand from him. 

"You gave him that much money?"

He rolls his eyes at me. "He said he was going to by a new car." 

"There's nothing wrong with the dynasty. She's an old girl, sure, but runs fine." 

Wilson watches me for a second before it hits me. "I'm going to kill him."

"What did he do?"

"He bought a motorcycle, a couple weeks ago we were walking home, he test rode one after Andie's case." 

"Can I help you kill him?" 

Sighing gently, I look at Wilson. "I'd rather you not be an accomplice, Julia would kill us both." he nods gently before sighing. 

"I'll make sure he gives the money back, if he's alive anyway." 

He nods before walking over to me. "House mentioned your ex is in town, Michael." 

"Did he tell you my period started too?"

He shoots me a look, and I sigh before nodding. "He showed up at my house the other day, so I'm going to be moving in with House, and getting the house appraised." 

Nodding he looks at me. "Are you okay? I know what happened when you two were together."

I shrug slightly. "I'm fine, lets just hope he doesn't have a new wife he wants me to fix." Wilson smiles as he nods. 

"Would you? If he did?"

"No" 

He raises his eyebrows in surprise at my quick and firm answer. "That was quick."

"Why should I help him after what he did?" 

Wilson sighs as he nods, giving me a quick hug he looks at me. "Let me know if you need anything," 

Nodding he walks out of  the office and back to his, looking at my pager as it beeps I make my way to Cuddy's office. Getting into her office she gives me a look. "What's that look for?"

Before she can answer, I hear Michael. Turning to look at him I cross my arms. "I want to talk." 

"So you show up at my job? Get my boss involved?" 

"If that's what it takes." 

"Oh, no." I chuckle slightly as I look at him. "I want you so far from me, if god existed he would be jealous on you being higher than him." 

He sighs as he looks at me nodding slightly, I turn around to see House walk in, turning I look at Cuddy. "He wants to talk to him too?" 

"I wanted to see the new lucky man, shame he's got a cane." 

House looks over at him. "She likes the hard wood." 

Shaking my head Michael looks at me. "Leave the cripple and come back to me." 

Grabbing House's cane, I push him onto the couch, handing the cane to Cuddy, I walk over to Michael. Staring at him. 

"He may have a cane, but he's twice the man you will ever be." 

"Looks pathetic to me." 

Gritting my teeth, I punch him in the face. He hits the floor and looks at me. "You ever come anywhere near me again, i'll have you arrested for harassment, do I make myself clear?" 

He looks up at me, nodding slightly before I grab House's cane, giving it back to him as he stands up. His eyes on me, mine staying on Michael as he's on the floor. Walking out with House I shake my hand slightly. 

He stops to grab it, looking at it for a moment and sighing. "Let's get you an x ray." Nodding I follow to the procedure room so he can make sure it isn't broken. Sitting on the stool next to me he rubs my leg. 

"Do you have any idea what he wants?" 

"He just wants to talk, and apparently insult you." 

"You have a mean right hook." 

Smiling as I look at him he smirks back. "You enjoyed me hitting him, don't lie." 

"it was hot, I'll admit." 

Cuddy walks in and sighs at me. "You busted his left zygomatic." 

"Oh yes, I should have known that punching someone in the eye would break something. My bad." 

She looks at me and shakes her head. "You two are so much alike. No care for consequences." 

"No, I've told him to stay away from me, then he shows up, insults House. He's the one who ignores the consequences." 

She crosses her arms at me. "You don't even know what he wants." 

"Is he pregnant? Pretty sure it isn't mine." 

House looks at Cuddy, shrugging slightly. 

"He wants you to be his cardiologist." 

"Oh is his heart broken? There's no fix for that." 

"(y/n)." 

"I said no, he can find another cardiologist. We're a dime a dozen."

"Not one that also specializes in Hematology, Endocrinology, and Immunology." 

Looking at Cuddy I shake my head. "I've said no. No means no."

This has nothing to do with the seasons, just thought it would be fun to introduce the ex boyfriend officially, threw in your specialties too, so its more clear and you aren't just a random doctor on the team.
