drama drhouse fanfiction gregoryhouse housemd housexwilson jameswilson

Dr. James Wilson has always been the voice of reason at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital-the steady hand, the compassionate heart, the doctor who cares too much. Dr. Gregory House is his polar opposite: brilliant, caustic, and determined to keep everyone at arm's length. But beneath their professional facades of the caring oncologist and misanthropic diagnostician lies twenty years of friendship that's beginning to crack under the weight of unspoken feelings.

As they navigate their complex relationship through late-night consultations, shared secrets, and unspoken understanding, both doctors find themselves questioning the boundaries they've carefully maintained. House's newest medical mystery becomes intertwined with Wilson's personal crisis, forcing them both to confront the one diagnosis they've been avoiding: their growing feelings for each other.

Set against the backdrop of life-and-death medical drama, this slow-burn romance explores the fine line between friendship and something more, between professional distance and personal intimacy. As House and Wilson orbit each other like binary stars, they must decide whether to maintain their safe distance or risk everything by drawing closer.

In this compelling medical romance, every symptom points to love-but sometimes the hardest person to diagnose is yourself.

Perfect for fans of medical dramas, slow-burn romance, and complex character studies who enjoy watching walls carefully built over decades slowly crumble in the face of undeniable chemistry.

Against Medical Advice. // G.House x Female Reader by ZiaFern04

You came to Princeton-Plainsboro to start over - not to fall into a dangerously addictive push-pull with the hospital's most brilliant and emotionally unavailable doctor. Gregory House doesn't want you on his team, in his space, or under his skin... and yet, that's exactly where you end up. Between late-night cases, sharp tongues, and one regrettable night with another collegue, everything spirals - fast. What starts as tension becomes something deeper, darker, and far harder to survive.

Chronic Pain: A Battle Within by we1rd_b0nes

Trigger Warnings: Self-harm (graphic descriptions of nail marks, bleeding, and compulsive behavior) Addiction & Relapse (Vicodin dependency, withdrawal, emotional and physical consequences) Chronic Pain (descriptions of physical suffering, pain-induced behavior) Mental Health Struggles (depression, isolation, hopelessness, intrusive thoughts) Dr. Gregory House has always lived with pain-physical, emotional, and the kind that keeps you awake at 3AM. After years of pushing people away, chasing numbness, and drowning himself in pills and sarcasm, the cracks are starting to show. Wilson sees it. Thirteen suspects it. House? He's not ready to admit he's falling apart again. As the battle within his own body turns into a war inside his mind, House has to confront the ghosts of his past, the addiction he can't outrun, and the people still trying to love him through the wreckage. Pain was always easier than healing. But maybe... just maybe... he doesn't have to fight alone this time.

Her new cover places her in the unpredictable world of Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital, right under the nose of the infamous Dr. Gregory House and his diagnostic team.

The Mouse And The Cane by fenrir099

New chapters every Wednesday and Friday at 8 pm GMT+1 He wanted to be a doctor. House wanted a distraction. Neither expected the damage-or the connection that would follow. Dr. Elliot Rees thought transferring to Princeton-Plainsboro was the next logical step in his medical career. He didn't expect Dr. Gregory House: brilliant, infuriating, and impossible to ignore. As Elliot fights for his place on the diagnostics team, he also faces the ghosts of his past, the mystery of his own worsening health, and a connection with House that becomes harder to deny. A story of wit, wounds, and the spaces between- where vulnerability meets brilliance, and survival is sometimes more than just medical.

Utopia (A Hilson Fanfiction) by queen_mycroft

Disclaimer: massive spoilers for the series finale. Triggers for pretty brief suicidal thoughts. They both know it. They say it to each other in looks and tentative touches, when House is rubbing Wilson's back when he feels as if he's about to hack up his lungs. In those moments, he doesn't have enough headspace to think, "House loves me," but sometimes he doesn't have to think it. Sometimes it's just his touch on Wilson's back and a few gentle words swathed in sarcasm. He knows. They both know. And what if Wilson was a star? And what if House was the universe, and what if he loved Wilson and let the oceans of time dwindle so he could be with him; only him, forever? What if there was a utopia?
