It was 圣诞节 night and House was flipping through his 电视 trying to find something to watch.
"Damn, all 圣诞节 movies," he 说 as he turned off his tv in disgust. The last thing he needed was another reminder that he was alone during this time of family, peace, and happiness. Deciding to calll it an early night, he headed towards his bedroom when he heard the phone ring.
"This better be an emergency," House answered the phone.
"Hi, Greg, it's me," 说 the voice on the other end of the line.
"Hi, mom. Merry Christmas," he managed to say through his surprise. His mother hasn't called him on 圣诞节 for years.
"Merry Christmas, son. Don't hang up yet," she 说 as House was about to hang up the phone.
"What else is there to talk about?" he asked.
"Well, as 你 know, this is my first 圣诞节 without your father," Blythe House said.
"I know," House 说 feeling rather uncomfortable.
"I figured now was as good a time as any to tell 你 the truth, because if 你 can't say it on Christmas, then when can 你 say it, right?" she 说 hesistantly.
"What are 你 talking about, mom?" asked House.
"Your real father is not John House. He's actually-"
"Mike Collins," House cut off his mother.
"How did 你 know?"
"I figured it out when I was twelve. Dad, 或者 should I say stepdad, was deployed to
Okinawa at the time I was supposed to have been conceived; his 秒 toe is bigger than his big toe and mine isn't; lastly, I have a birthmark on my scalp that matches Mike's birthmark.
"I guess I should explain," 说 Blythe.
"There's no need for that. I understand. 你 hated him so 你 cheated on him," 说 House. Blythe chuckled at this.
"No, that's not how it was like at all. 你 see, I met Mike at a military ball, the same place I met John. They were best friends. Mike looked so handsome in his uniform and the way he smiled at me, it just melted my heart. I guess 你 could say it was 爱情 at first sight," Blythe said.
"Mom, I'm really not in the mood for story time," 说 House annoyed.
"Would 你 just listen for once?" his mother shot back at him.
"Fine," House 说 exasperated.
"Unfortunately, Mike was very shy. He didn't dance with anyone the entire night. John ended up asking me out even though I wished it was Mike instead, but 你 can't always get what 你 want. One thing led to another and John and I ended up getting married, but through it all, Mike and I still kept in touch; he was John's best friend after all. Then one day, I got a call from the Army. They 说 that the fighter jet John was on crashed. They couldn't find his body, but they did find his dog 标签 in the midst of the wreckage. I was devastated. I thought John was dead so I turned to Mike for comfort. We spent a lof of time together during the weeks that John was missing. Then one night, he professed his 爱情 for me. That was the night 你 were conceived. 由 the time I found out I was pregnant, John had been redeployed to Germany and Mike was deployed to I don't know where. It wasn't until a few years later when John and I moved back to Kentucky that I saw Mike again. He was happliy married. That's when it hit me. I couldn't tell anyone that 你 were his child because I'd be breaking not one, but two families. It was easier to let John think that 你 were his son who was born one 月 prematurely," Blythe finally finished.
House was speechless. The sordid 爱情 story his mother just told him was not what he was expecting.
"Greg, are 你 still there?" Blythe finally broke the silence.
"Yeah, I'm still here," House answered.
"Good. If 你 learned anything from this story, Greg, learn this: don't wait to tell someone 你 爱情 that 你 爱情 them because then it could be too late and you'll forever live to regret it," his mother said.
"Ok, mom, bye," House said.
"Bye, son," his mom answered.
House sat on his 长椅, 沙发 and thought about what his mother just told him for a few moments. Then, as if possessed, he got up, grabbed a piece of paper and a pen from his desk. He scribbled down a note, which he folded and tucked into the inner pocker of his jacket. He then got his keys and cane before heading out the door.
Fifteen 分钟 later House arrived at Cuddy's house. He felt a chill run down his back as he remembered what happened the last time he went to Cuddy's house.
"No, this time I'm going to ring her doorbell," he told himself. He stood in front of the doorway for a 秒 and then rang the doorbell.
Inside the house, Cuddy had just finished tucking in her baby girl again (she was quite a crier) when she heard the doorbell ring. She answered the door and was surprised to find no one there.
"Stupid, stupid, stupid," House mentally chastised himself. "Never again," he told himself, "never again."
"Damn lousy teenage pranksters," Cuddy muttered to herself. She was about to close the door when she noticed a slip of paper underneath a rock, which was presumably there to keep the note from blowing away. She unfolded the piece of paper and couldn't believe her eyes. The message on the paper read:
Because it's Christmas, I just thought 你 should know that I 爱情 you.
-Greg House
Cuddy quickly put on a pair of shoes and ran out the door. She managed to catch up to House, who was still limping towards his car.
"House," she called out to him and he turned around to face her. She then pulled him into a kiss.
"Because it's Christmas, I just thought 你 should know that I 爱情 你 too," she 说 smiling at him.
*A/N: I tried to stay as true to the characters as possible and make sure the facts that we've been 给 on 前一个 episodes match up with what presented. That being said, I did have to take some liberties to stray from the 显示 a little in order to make this fanfic work, but hopefully not too much. If 你 felt, I've made some factual errors please let me know. Also, please rate and review as this is my first attempt at a Huddy fanfic, thanks.
