A/N -
Hey! Sorry for not posting the 4th chapter in ages but I've been busy with school and haven't always had the time to write. But I'm on a 2 week break so I've had plenty of time to continue writing. I always end up continuing to write these chapters really late at night so I am sorry if this chapter isn't the best. Hope you enjoy :)

After House kissed you, you were blushing so hard and smiling like an idiot as you walked over to your taxi.
'Back home, please.' You said to the driver as you got in.
The man clearly noticed you were happy.
'Were you on a date, miss?' He asked.
'I was, actually.' You replied.
'Went well, I see.' He said.
Your face then went really red as you realised you couldn't really hide the way House made you feel.
'You should see him again.' The man added.
'Eh we work together and it would be awkward for all of my other colleagues if we were to start dating. If we broke up it would be even worse because I'd have to see him everyday.' You said with a sigh.
You both stayed quiet for a while.

The taxi drive went by quickly as you spent most of the journey thinking and talking about House.
As soon as you got home, you thanked and paid the driver and went straight to bed.

- the next day -

You walked into the hospital and saw Foreman and 13 hand in hand down the hall.
You walked up to them with a wide smile.
'Hey guys, I take it the date went well for you.'
You said.
'Yeah it did, we're going on another date tomorrow night. Catch a movie or something.' 13 said with a smile.
'Wow that's great!' You said.
'How about you and House?' Foreman asked.
'It went well, yeah but knowing House, he's kind of a one-time guy. I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't do this again.' You said.
Foreman pointed behind you, indicating House was there.

'Hey y/n.' He nodded as you turned around.
'Hey you called me by my first name.' You smiled.
'Yeah, hi there's a patient you've gotta deal with.' He said as he handed you a clipboard.
'Wha-'
He cut you off by putting his finger to your lips and pointing at the room the patient was in.
You looked at the room and turned back to him.
'Have fun.' He said before walking off to his office.
You rolled your eyes and walked to the room.
You were half-surprised that he didn't start talking about last night and that he wasn't hungover.

You dealt with the patient and walked to the canteen for your lunch break. You met Wilson in the queue and greeted him with a smile.
'So how'd the date go?' He asked.
'How did you know?' You said.
'House told me last night.' He said.
'Oh, Right, Ok. Yeah it went well, I don't think we'll do it again though.'
'How come?' Wilson asked.
'Well for starters he's a one-time guy. Second, when I saw him today he acted like last night never happened.' You said.
'Go and talk to him again, he's over there.' Wilson said as he pushed you a little towards House.

House was sitting alone at a 2 person table stacking his Vicodin tablets like Jenga towers.
You sat down at the table, knocking the tower of medicine over as you sat down.
'Well done.' House said sarcastically as he looked up at you.
'You're so childish, you know that?' You said as you rolled your eyes.
House stuffed the tablets back into the pot and took a couple as he put them in his pocket.
'Sooo last night?' You started.
'What about it?' He said, tapping his cane.
'Are we gonna go out again?' You asked as you raised your eyebrows.
House sat back in his seat before looking up at you again.
'Nope.' He said quickly as he got up and left.
You were a little confused.
Rude.
You thought.
You saw Wilson looking over at you.
You just shrugged at him as you both looked confused and you got up to leave the canteen.

After a long day of working, you were finally ready to leave. Before you got to the front door of the hospital, you ran into House.
You tried your best to avoid him but he stopped you.
He grabbed your arm and pulled you into his office.
You were about to start talking when he cut you off by kissing you deeply.
You were shocked yet you started to kiss him back before realising what happened earlier and you pushed him away.
'House, what the hell?!' You whisper shouted.
'Ok I lied, I wanted to see you again.' He said.
'Then why didn't you say you wanted to before?' You asked as you folded your arms.
House sighed.
'I don't know.' He said as he looked at the ground.
'Come over to mine, I'll order takeout and put a movie on. I think I have some dusty dvds in a drawer in my closet somewhere.' He said.
You were still pretty mad about him embarrassing you at lunch but you did want to see him again.
'When?' You sighed.
'Tonight.' He said quickly.
'House, I can't. My car is here and I've got things to take home.'
'Then spend the night.' He said.
There was a brief pause.
'Sure.' You finally said.
