Cuddy: I have this, wonderful bundle of joy House. Her feelings come before mine now.
(House and Cuddy stood just an inch from each other, the sexual tension between them was magnetic—but they were both too stubborn for their own good.)
Cuddy: I want to, but I don’t think I’m ready to go all in yet.
House: I’m surprisingly good at waiting.
(Cuddy laughed softly, and looked House up and down flirtatiously)
Cuddy: I know.
(House smiled for a second, before his eyes caressed Cuddy’s face gently as he pulled her in close. House lifted Cuddy off of her tip-toes as they shared one last passionate kiss, with Cuddy’s hands grasping at House’s face lightly. Then House gracefully placed her back down to Earth.)
House: I can’t think of anything to say after that.
Cuddy: Me neither.
(They smiled one last time at each other, before their faces went back to normal, their guards raised once more. House turned around and left, whilst Cuddy sat back down at her desk, and looked at the 照片 of her and Rachel, smiling.)
--
(House was in bed, the clock on his bedside 表 说 3:30am.)
Knock Knock
House squinted at the clock, before getting up and reaching for his cane.
House: Its 3 in the morning. Why aren’t 你 at home?
Cuddy: I couldn’t sleep.
(House sighed, and looked at what Cuddy was carrying.)
House: 你 brought the kid along?
Cuddy: I couldn’t leave her alone. Are 你 going to let me in 或者 not?
(House reluctantly stepped to the side, and Cuddy rushed in and immediately put baby Rachel on the coffee table; sitting down on the 长椅, 沙发 in front of her as she was sleeping.)
(House sat on the armchair, and watched Cuddy smiling at Rachel.)
House: Why did 你 come here? Because when I can’t sleep, I usually stay inside the house I actually sleep in.
Cuddy: Can I have a coffee at least?
(House gave Cuddy a look, before limping to the 厨房 to make some coffee.)
House: 你 came here for coffee? 或者 你 came here for something else.
(House gave Cuddy a mug of coffee, before sitting 下一个 to her.)
Cuddy: I realised, after everything that’s happened. The happiness I get from Rachel; it’s the same.
(House looked at Cuddy calmly)
House: Same as what?
(Cuddy looked at House.)
Cuddy: Same happiness I get from you, when 你 decide not to be a jerk.
House: It’s always a special occasion.
(Cuddy smiled.)
House: So you’re content. With family orientated love, as opposed to an actual hot and steamy 爱情 affair.
Cuddy: Maybe a couple of months ago, I would say no. Now, yes.
House: However, you’d immediately drop this kid the 秒 an opportunity showed up at your door step, with a dozen 玫瑰 along with a box of chocolates.
Cuddy: What if I 说 yes.
House: I’d say 你 were lying.
(Cuddy turned towards him.)
House: Lessons have been learned; 你 turn away from her, for a man, who 你 can’t figure out. It’s a game 你 can’t win.
Cuddy: This whole life is a game. Somebody’s got to lose right?
(Cuddy fixed Rachel’s blanket and hat, and House gave a thoughtful look at her as she drank her coffee.)
House: 你 haven’t lost. 你 haven’t won either; but that’s beside the point.
Cuddy: She’s worth it.
House: So you’d sacrifice getting it whenever 你 want it, for a baby that’ll most likely turn out to be a brat anyway-which will leave 你 feeling completely blindsided until she eventually leaves 你 to die, alone.
(Cuddy looked kindly at House, who didn’t expect this reaction from her.)
Cuddy: Is playing the devils advocate worth living the life 你 choose to lead?
(They both smiled.)
Cuddy: I have work in 4 hours.
House: I have work in---6, maybe 7 hours?
(Cuddy gave a flirtatious look at House.)
