Five came around quickly for the House and his team, and everyone was thankful. Chase had been going on the rest of the day about being flirted with by their patient. Apparently he was proud of it and wanted to share. House stood in the main lobby while he waited for Cameron to finish up her last clinic hour for the day.

The receptionist looked up from the clinic's lobby and noticed that House was leaning against the counter. "Dr. House, Cameron is with her last patient now, she won't be much longer." She said kindly, a smile on her face.

House looked over at her and nodded. "Thank you." He answered quietly. At his 'thank you' the receptionist smiled wider and nodded before she turned back to the files in front of her as she entered things into her computer. 'Great, they'll think I'm going soft.' He sighed and shook his head, but couldn't hide the small grin that came to his face.

Cameron stepped out of exam room one and turned to shake the hand of the young woman that she had been seeing. "Your script will be ready this afternoon." She said with a smile before she turned and walked over to the receptionist counter. "Birth control for Ms. Harrid, make sure she gets her call for her annual visit's results."

"Sure thing Dr. Cameron." The receptionist replied with a smile. When Cameron looked up from signing the file, she saw the receptionist glance to the other side of the counter, and that's when she noticed that House was leaning on the counter across from them.

"Thank you Mindy." She replied and walked around the counter to stand in front of House, a smile on her face. "You were waiting for me?" she asked softly. House nodded, staying quiet, although the small grin stayed on his face. "Are you ready to go?"

"I'm ready when you are."

Cameron nodded and patted his hand, which rested on the counter. "Alright, let's go then." She turned to Mindy and smiled, "I will see you tomorrow Mindy."

"Have a good night you two." Mindy replied.

The drive to Cameron's apartment was uneventful and when House stepped through the threshold of her apartment and shut the door behind him, the only thing he could hear was the loud meow of Cameron's cat. "Someone is hungry."

Cameron chuckled as she walked over to the fridge and retrieved his food. "He's like this every time I come home."

"Where is he?" House asked as he walked over to sit at the kitchen table. "You keep his food in the fridge? Too pampered to eat kibble?"

Cameron rolled her eyes as she grabbed his dish from her sink from last night. "He eats Fresh Pet every night so he gets the omega fats that he needs for his skin and coat. I keep kibble out all day for him."

House chuckled as he watched Cameron open the container and proceed to spoon the food into the tiny dish when he felt something lean against his legs, causing him to look down. He met the bright green eyes of a solid white cat. "Someone is spoiled... and out of hiding."

Cameron turned around to see that Everest was leaning against House's legs, looking up at him. "He can be quite shy; he'll warm up to you by the end of the night." She walked over to where his other food dish sat and placed it on the mat. "C'mon Everest, dinner time bud." She cooed to the large cat, causing him to turn his head and pad over to her. Cameron scratched his head before leaving him to eat his food. When she looked back up at House, he was smirking at her. "What?" she asked.
