Chapter 12 : a meeting at the airport, first step.
Rachel is so excited to take a plane and to see House, that it’s hard to keep her quiet during the flight.
-Rachel, you’d better sleep a little o you’re gonna be too tired to play with House, Cuddy tells her and caresses Rachel’s head.
-Ok, mommy, but you’ll let me play and watch the Pirate cartoon with House tonight! Rachel says and puts her head on Cuddy’s shoulder. Cuddy puts her arm on the back of the little girl and begins to sing softly. After a while, Rachel falls asleep and Cuddy tries to rest.
Ladies and gentlemen, please attach your seatbelts, we begin the landing.
-House! House! Where is House! I want to see House, mommy, Rachel says and jumps in the hall where they’re waiting for the luggage.
-Yes, Rachel, wait a little. But don’t be too disappointed if he’s not there, I don’t know if he’ll pick us up at the airport, we may have to take a cab, Cuddy says.
-Why? Dad has to be here for us!
-Rachel! He has maybe a lot of work and we’ll see him later, ok? Cuddy says firmly and rolls her eyes.
-No, I want to see him now! Rachel respuestas and pouts. I hope he’s waiting for us, Cuddy thinks, o I’m gonna have a bad-humored Rachel for the rest of the day.
Once they got back their luggage, they head for the exit.
-Mommy! He is there! House! Rachel suddenly shouts. Cuddy doesn’t have time to react that the little girl already runs towards him. Cuddy follows her with the eyes. She sees House and Wilson. Good old Wilson, he knew very well where House was. House looks at her straight in the eyes. Then Rachel tightens him and he caresses her head with a smile, he’s happy to see the little girl, he missed her.
-Hey! How is my little pirate doing? he asks.
-House! I missed you, where were you? Why didn’t tu play with me? Rachel says and keeps her little arms around House’s leg.
-I’m here now, don’t worry, we’re gonna play and watch the pirate’s cartoon! House replies. Rachel, do tu remember Uncle Wilson? He wants to buy tu a big ice-cream, go with him.
-And tu and mommy? Don’t tu want an ice-cream?
-Later, mommy and I have to talk about certain things, but we’ll meet tu and Wilson. Go now!
-Ok, but tonight we play!
-I promise, House says.
-Come, Rachel, I want to mostrar tu something, Wilson says and goes away with Rachel. Here is Kate, my friend, she’s coming with us, she knows a place with big ice-creams and a lot of games.
-Bravo! Rachel shouts, she’s happy, she saw House and now she’s gonna have a big helado with Uncle Wilson.
Cuddy sees all the scene but doesn’t move, she seems petrified. She can’t help but look at House. He’s wearing his blue camisa, camiseta and a black jeans, he’s tanned and even más beautiful and sexy than in her memory. Her corazón is racing, her legs are weak, she misses him so much! She wants to jump in his arms, to put her hands around his neck, to go through his hair with her hand, to kiss his lips, to get close to him. But she can’t move. She watches him coming towards her. She’s wearing a black falda and a low cut parte superior, arriba which emphasizes her breasts. She’s gorgeous, a real stunner, House thinks. His corazón goes faster in his chest, he’d like to take her in his arms, to caress her hair, to smell her scent, to kiss her neck, to let his fingers go slowly on her cheek, then on her neck, on her back… Fortunately I’m here to pick her up and not MacEnzie! She’ll drive him crazy for sure. I don’t know if she’s aware of the effect she has on men, I’m sure a lot of them fancy her. He stands now right in front of her, but neither speaks. They look at each other, Cuddy is lost in the deep blue of House’s eyes, House tries to rate Cuddy’s feelings towards him, she seems quiet although a little tense. Both would like to embrace the other, but they’re afraid of their reaction. Eventually House says with a smile, still staring at her:
-Hi, little sunshine.
-Hi, House, Cuddy respuestas in a soft but tender voice.
-You don’t seem surprised to see me here.
-I would have been if tu were not.
-Cuddy, I … , House begins but can’t go on, he’s too afraid to say something wrong, to hurt her o to make her angry.
-Where is Rachel?
-Hm, she’s with Wilson and Kate… Wilson’s new girlfriend, House adds when he sees the questioning look of Cuddy.
-Oh, Wilson has a new girlfriend…
-Yes, and they go to eat an ice-scream with the “lesser Cuddy”, if tu don’t mind.
-And we?
-Oh, I didn’t think you’d like an ice-scream, respuestas House with a smile in a slightly mocking tone. I promise I’ll buy tu one later if you’re a good girl.
-I forgot how funny tu could be, she says and smiles.
-You know what?
-No.
-I didn’t think I missed your smile so much.
-Wow! What disaster is going to occur?
House looks at her but isn’t sure to understand what she means. Cuddy laughs at House’s face. It’s good to hear her laughing, he thinks, that’s a good point, that means she isn’t too mad at me.
-Don’t worry, House, it’s a joke! tu never make me compliments for free, I’m just surprised.
-Oh, I got it. I’m sincere, Cuddy, I missed your smile, your laugh, your sarcasm…, House says and comes closer, but still doesn’t dare to take her hand.
-House, I… we need to talk seriously, calmly, Cuddy says and looks tenderly at him.
-Yes, I know. When?
-Why not now? Rachel is with Wilson, we’ll be quiet to talk. Do tu agree?
-Where do tu want to go?
-Well, I don’t know, she respuestas and looks around her.
-We can go in a bar or…, House says and looks at her straight in the eyes. He’d like to go to his apartment, but it would be too soon, they need a neutral place, he’s ready to be patient because he doesn’t want to go too fast and to screw up one más time.
-Ok, let’s go in your bar, she says. She hoped he would invite her to him, but she knows he’s right, it’s better to go in a public place without any pressure. She has to be patient, to go slowly with him if she wants it to work.
Meanwhile MacEnzie waits for Cuddy and Rachel. Malcolm told him this morning that Doctor House would pick her and her daughter up at the airport, he was a little disappointed, he had planned to mostrar them the city before to go to him, but… well, he thinks, they should arrive soon now, except if their flight was delayed. Maybe I should call the airport… Don’t be stupid! Even if the flight is delayed, they’ll eventually arrive and then tu can mostrar them Apton por night! Their room are ready, he went shopping, everything is ok to welcome them. He just has to wait. His mood up, he decides to watch TV.
House and Cuddy sit in House’s favorito! bar, the barman made him a sign of encouragement with a big smile when he saw him with Cuddy. House used to talk a lot about her when he sat at the counter late at night. They sip their drink silently.
-Cuddy, I … I know I’ve done stupid things, that I went too far this time, and I’d understand that tu can’t forgive me…
-House!
-No, please, let me speak. I know that I deeply disappointed you, I lied to tu but never on personal things, just for the work, I’d like tu to know that I work again with Doctor Nolan, my therapist, in order to get better, to learn to deal with my demons, my fears, my pains…
-House, she says and takes his hand. I’m not an angel, I have a part of responsibility in this disaster… you’re not the only one guilty.
-Cuddy, House says and looks at her. His eyes are wet, his throat is tied. I want tu to know that I regret, I regret not being there when tu needed me, I regret all the horrible things I’ve done to you, I hope that you’ll be able to forgive me one day, I hope that tu agree to work with me again, I hope that tu agree to be my friend again like in the old good time…
-House, I told tu you’re not the only one to have made mistakes, to have made things which he regrets… I owe tu too apology for my behavior, I know I was sometimes bitchy, but … I thought I’d be able to deal with your “bad sides”, I hoped that you’d open up to me, that you’d talk to me about your pain but tu didn’t, tu never expressed your feelings, your fears o your needs… Sometimes I had the impression I was your mother and not your girlfriend! I don’t want to be your mother! I want to be your girlfriend, your lover, your confident…I want tu to tell me how tu feel, what your fears, your hopes, your pains are… I want and I need tu to be there por my sides every day, House … I … I can’t live without you… And Rachel needs tu too. She asked every día where tu were, why tu didn’t come… She loves tu House, she calls tu her Dad…, Cuddy says and wipes the tears which roll on her cheeks.
-Cuddy, if tu want me to be por your sides, every day, I’ll be there, for you, for Rachel…I swear… I really try to improve myself in order to be the man tu need, the man tu deserve… and I missed her too…, House says and puts his hand on Cuddy’s cheek. Both perfectly know that Rachel is a way to tell the other how much they missed each other. They remain so without talking, just looking at each other a while, House caressing Cuddy’s cheek and Cuddy still holding House’s other hand. Do tu want to hear a crazy but nice story? House suddenly says.
-Of course, Cuddy respuestas and smiles.
-When I went to the hospital to ask for a job, I told Doctor Malcolm I had a wife and a daughter, House says and looks at Cuddy straight in the eyes.
-Oh! Well, you’re effectively married, but I didn’t know tu had a child, I didn’t know indeed that tu want to have a child, she respuestas with a smile.
-Cuddy! Don’t laugh at me! tu know why I married Dominica; as soon as she got her green card, we fill the file for divorce! I didn’t speak about her and tu know it!
-Oh, really? And about whom did tu speak then?
-Do tu really want to know? He says and takes her hand.
-Yes, I have an idea, but … I need to hear tu say it…
-When I told him I had a wife and a daughter, I thought of tu and Rachel… I wish it was true, he adds in a low voice, still lost in Cuddy’s grey eyes.
-Maybe one day…
-Yeah, maybe…
Forget your troubles, com’on get happy
-Oh, I’m sorry, Cuddy says, it’s my phone. I don’t know this number, I wonder who calls me…
-Let me see, House says and takes Cuddy’s phone. That’s MacEnzie, he says in a slightly jealous tone. You’d better answer him, he’s a real leech.
-Ok, then… Doctor Cuddy on the phone, she says coldly. She’s no más Cuddy, House’s lover, but Doctor Cuddy, Dean of Medicine. House admires her, he admires her skill to change her attitude in a segundo according to the context and to the people. He’s sure now, MacEnzie has no chance with Cuddy, he doesn’t need to worry, Cuddy still loves him, even if she didn’t tell him explicitly.
-Doctor Cuddy! It’s Doctor MacEnzie, the pediatrician in Apton. Where are you? I called the airport and they told me your flight was on time, did Doctor House pick tu up? o has he forgotten? If this is the case, I come immediately…
-No, no, it’s ok, Doctor House was on time. I’m sorry, I should have called tu but I hadn’t your phone number, we are … friends and we’re having a drink, don’t worry.
-Oh, I see…, why is House still with her? She should be here with me! MacEnzie thinks upset and jealous. And do tu still come to me or…?
Cuddy looks at House. He seems quiet. Yes, I think we’re going to you, so see tu soon. She hangs up. He seems to be a little upset, how is he? What can tu tell me about him?
-Well… he’s kinda handsome, he’s single…
-House! What are tu thinking of! I’m not interested! I don’t need a man, I’ve got already one and that’s enough.
-Oh, tu already have a man, House says ironically. May I know his name?
Cuddy rolls her eyes and respuestas sarcastically: Well, it’s not really the truth, I had a man, the most selfish son of perra on the face of this planet, but also the most incredible man I’ve ever known, the perfect lover… we got some… “problems”, at this time we’re still not together, but … it seems on a good way… and I hope that we’re gonna reconciled very, very soon… because I need him, she adds tenderly.
-But tu didn’t tell me his name, House notes.
-House! she says and pretends to be irritated.
-I think I know him… People say about him that he’s brilliant, funny, handsome, sexy…
-Stop! Your head will explode if tu keep on, she laughs.
-Ok, let’s go to MacEnzie, but…
-But? she says a little anxious.
-Promise me to be careful, I don’t trust this guy, he seems to intend to seduce you… If he tries to …, call me and I come and I smash his face.
-House, don’t worry. Everything’s gonna be ok, I’ll stay por him only for two days. And he’ll be working at the hospital… and Rachel will be with me.
-Promise me, Cuddy.
-Ok, I promise tu to be careful, I’ll wear my nun costume, ok? she adds with a little smile.
-Yeah.
-But…, she adds a little upset.
-But? What’s the problem Cuddy? tu can talk to me, I made a lot of progress, I know how to listen to people now, he respuestas with a smirk.
Cuddy looks at him, he really seems to have worked on himself. House, I want tu to know that I’m not happy to go to MacEnzie, even if it’s only for two days, I don’t know him and what tu just told me doesn’t speak in his favor. Promise me to keep quiet, not to get angry o jealous.
-Thanks, Cuddy, House says and gives her a little peck on the corner of the mouth.
Cuddy feels warmth in her body as House kisses her gently, she’d like him to kiss her passionately, to take her in his arms and to take her to his place…, but she just asks him: Why?
-To tell me that you’re not happy to go there… Maybe I can…
-No. I understand your point of view, I know why tu don’t accommodate me and Rachel, it’s too soon, we have to work certain things first, then…
-Yeah, that’s right. We have to go slowly to be sure that it works and that this time that lasts. But if tu have the tiniest problem with him, call me.
-Ok.
-So let’s go.
Rachel is so excited to take a plane and to see House, that it’s hard to keep her quiet during the flight.
-Rachel, you’d better sleep a little o you’re gonna be too tired to play with House, Cuddy tells her and caresses Rachel’s head.
