Hangovers suck

I woke up this morning with the worst hangover on the planet. My alarm felt like a full orchestra screaming at me. I stumbled out of bed and went to the bathroom, when I looked in the mirror I didn't even recognize myself. My hair was tangled and my eyes had dark circles under them.

I looked at my clock and saw what time it was. 8:48, shit I need to be in by 9:00 I brushed my hair out as best I can and put on the first outfit I found on my floor, I started applying my mascara and put on some concealer. I looked like crap but it was good enough, I could put my hair in a somewhat professional bun at work.

I hopped into my car and drove off. I arrived at the hospital feeling and looking hungover. I walked into the locker rooms and grabbed my things, I didn't bother going to the clinic clearly not being in the mood for some patient to waste my time with a runny nose. I figure I could make up the extra hours tomorrow.

I walked up into the office but it was empty, I guess everyone else was a little hungover as well. Since I had some time I decided to see if Wilson was in. I opened the door to his office and saw him sitting at his desk face down.

"Hey" I said

"Shhhhhhh, I think I'm dying in the midst of the worst hangover of my life" he said

"You also drank too much huh? I barely remember" I said as I sat down

"I remember being at the zoo, did we go to the zoo?" He asked confused

"Nope, maybe that's where you asked the cab driver to take you" I giggled

He put his head back down, hangovers can be bitches.

"I'm going to go get you some coffee, sober you up" I said and started to walk out

"Thank you" he said looking half way up before flopping his head back down.

I could clearly hold down my alcohol a bit better than average people but I'm not sure if that's something I should be proud of.

I hopped into the elevator and took it downstairs. I was also in desperate need of a coffee, though I may not be a lightweight I still had a huge hangover. I walked up to the barista and placed my order.

"2 regular coffees please" I said

"5.58$" said the barista

I handed him the money and he handed me my salvation AKA coffee. I got into the elevator again and right as the doors were about to close a cane stopped them, I knew it was House. He stepped in and looked at the two coffees I was holding clearly wondering why I had two.

"I know you're hungover, but you're not hungover enough for two coffees" he said

"There not both for me" I replied

"Oh how nice if you, getting me of coffee" he said as he reached out. It was sarcasm but he kind of wanted me to actually give it to him. I moved my hand out of the way so he didn't grab the coffee.

"This ones for Wilson" I said holding it up

"Why are you getting him a coffee? He's a big boy he could do it himself"

"Well House, some people like doing nice things for others" I said

"That's a lie, you're getting him a coffee because you want to have sex with him"

"What?!?"

The doors opened and we both got out. We started walking down the hallway.

"People only buy others coffee for that reason" he said

"No, you only buy people coffees for that reason because you're a pervert, I'm getting coffee for a hungover friend. Speaking of it, why aren't you hungover?"

"I'm just special" he said

"In other words you took something, being hungover makes the pain worse and you seem fine"

"As I said, I'm special"

"What was it, Morphine did you double dose on Vicodin"

He didn't even bother to answer my question, he just walked into his office.

I walked into Wilson's office and handed him the coffee.

"Thanks" he said taking a sip

"No problem, I gotta get going back to work. I've got some discharge papers to sign" I said

"Ok, good luck those things are annoying. See you later" he said

"Bye" I said and walked back to House's office. The second I walked in House looked up at me and started talking.

"If you start dating Wilson, I want joint custody" He said

"Will you let this go"

"Nope, I was thinking you get him during the weeks I get him on the weekends"

"I'm not doing this House" I said

"Why, do you have a boyfriend, are you cheating on Wilson?!?"

"First of all Wilson and I aren't dating. Second of all If I was dating someone it would be none of your business"

"Fine" he replied annoyed

"Did you get a case yet" I asked changing the subject

"No, that's your job"

"Actually it's Foreman's" I said

"Well now it's yours"

"Fine" I said as he handed me all the case files to go through. This was going to be a long day. I sat down and popped an aspirin into my mouth to get rid of my headache.

"Hey! what are you doing?!?" Said House

"I'm taking an aspirin"

"I don't think so, there's only room for one pill popping doctor around here and that's me"

"Fine, I'll go grind up some aspirin and put it in my water"

"That's still a pill" he whined

"You never established any rules about consistency" I said and sat back down

As I was looking through the files I started thinking, was House right about this while Wilson thing. Is there anything there?
Damn it, I let House get into my head.
