Lucas and Cuddy smile. For a little 更多 than a 月 Lucas and Cuddy visited their baby in the NICU

Lucas kisses the baby forehead before Cuddy puts him back on the cot.
- Thank 你 Doctor –
________________________________________
- So I'll take a couple of days off to be with the baby –
Cuddy says to Lucas as they walk to her office.
- 爱情 the idea –
- 你 can stop smiling, can you? – Cuddy says to the detective.
- Well…-
- Dr. Cuddy – Jonah interrupts – 你 had a message, apparently is an emergency –
Cuddy frowns – From one of my patients? – She takes the piece of paper
- No – Jonah responds – A Dr. James Wilson from Princeton Plainsboro called, he 说 it was urgent –
- I'm not longer smiling – Lucas says.
____________________________________________
- This is ridiculous – Foreman 评论 with anger – We should act now –
– If we just take our time, you'll see that you're jumping to conclusions – Chase tells him
They are in the hospital. House is sick, unconscious and in the hands of his team.
-I'm with Chase – Taub says. – What makes 你 so sure? –
- I'm right – Foreman 答案 – Wilson, choose the treatment 或者 let her choose – The doctor points to House's girlfriend. A woman in her early forties; sitting 下一个 to House's bed.
- I'm not his medical proxy. I can't make that decision, besides the board is scrutinizing this case. We're doing this 由 the book –
- For God's sake – the girlfriend says – you're his best friend and doctor –
- I'm not House's proxy –
- Who is it then? – Chase asks
- I called her an 小时 ago…- Wilson checks his watch.
- Seriously Wilson… – Cuddy enters the room –… 你 could just forge my signature –
- Cuddy? – Chase is astounded
- She is House's proxy? – Foreman asks.
- Believe me Foreman, I'm as surprise as 你 – She walks to center of the room; observes House on the bed. – What do 你 want me to sign? –
Wilson is dead serious. – Actually, we haven't chosen the right treatment. Foreman thinks…-
- Wait! – Cuddy interrupts him – 你 want me to make the final decision? –
- Well, yes – Wilson 答案 – You're a doctor, 你 understand, you're his proxy –
– I can't believe 你 – Cuddy says – 你 called me because 你 don't want to make a mistake –
- I called 你 because is your obligation – Wilson tells her. Building 更多 tension in the room. – House is dying –
- I'm not longer in his life, I don't know his wishes –
- So we're back to square one – Chase complains.
Cuddy notices the woman holding House hand – Who are you? –
- I'm House's girlfriend…not that it matters here –
Cuddy walks to her. – I'm Lisa Cuddy…I used to be their boss – She smiles
- Yeah, I know – she 答案 – I heard much about 你 –
- How long have 你 been dating House? –
- Uhm…Since New 年 –
- Are 你 living together? – Cuddy asks
- Not yet, we're talking about it. Taking things slow –
- Wise decision – Cuddy says – Have 你 hear the options of treatment? Have Dr. Chase and Dr. Foreman explained them to you? –
- Yes, I understand them–
- Then 你 chose – Cuddy says – Eric, Robert and Chris admire House too much, James is over protecting, and me…well…too much baggage. So it has to be you. You're the one who will live with the consequences. Just keep in mind that 你 爱情 him and that you're saving his life –
The woman looks at Cuddy – I think that Dr. Foreman is right –
- 你 made the right decision – Cuddy says to her, the same way she told Stacy so many years 以前 – 你 heard her – Cuddy says – Foreman, go ahead. I'll sign the forms –
Foreman nods.

Cuddy steps out of the room. Wilson follows her.
- I need to talk to 你 –
Her cell phone rings, she gets a text message from Lucas. – I have to make a phone call –
- Alright – Wilson tells her – 你 can use my office –
___________________________________
- How's everything over there? – Lucas asks her – Is House okay? Have 你 talk to him? Anything happened? –
- 你 sound paranoid – Cuddy tells him
- No, I'm not. But just to be clear, if 你 leave me for House...again. I'm keeping the children. I asked Zach, is feasible –
Cuddy laughs – Good to know – She is sitting in her old office.
- But I'm worried because it's May –
Cuddy takes her time – Lucas…Why does May worry you? –
- Bad things happened to House in May –
- What? That's not true –
- It is true. Today he's sick…last May he crashed his car into your 首页 and went to jail, when he was shot was May, Amber died in May, and he drove himself mad in May –
- I think…you're right – Cuddy says
- See? Be careful –
- I am – Cuddy smiles
– When are 你 coming back? –
- I…– Wilson enters the office and stares at her – I'm going to see if House wakes up and talk to him, so maybe in 2 或者 3 hours –
- Okay, tell House I say "hi" – Lucas says – Remember we have a big 日 tomorrow. 爱情 你 –
- Yeah, me too – Cuddy hangs up. Wilson is in his 超人 pose.
She stands up – So dean of medicine. Who did 你 have to sleep with to get it? –
Wilson doesn't laugh. – 你 disappeared – he finally speaks
- Wilson, don't start –
- 你 quit your job, sold 你 首页 and left in a freaking day. No even a phone call. I found out that 你 were still living in New Jersey because I saw your name in a charity pamphlet last week! –
- I had to leave – Cuddy says – I had to. Just like 你 had to leave after Amber died –
- I came back! –
- Because 你 wanted to –
- We were 老友记 – Wilson says – I understand that what happened was terrible for 你 and that 你 won't forgive House… –
- It was no longer about House! –
Wilson frowns.
- I was in 爱情 with House, I broke up with him and hurt him and he hurt me back – Cuddy stops to choose her words – But Wilson, when I saw that hole in my wall; I knew it was about me…I had to leave. Try to be happy somewhere else. –
Wilson sits down
- And I knew it meant to sacrifice my job and our friendship – Cuddy sits 下一个 to him – Good things can't last forever –
The oncologist sighs.
- Wilson, I have a son – Cuddy says with a smile. Wilson's jaw drops. – I had a baby boy, a little brother for Rachel. There were some issues with my pregnancy, 你 know for my age, and he was born premature but he's fine now. We can take him 首页 tomorrow –
- We? Who is "we"?–
- Me and the father – Cuddy responds
- Oh…so 你 have a husb…– Wilson mumbles – 你 know a guy –
- Yeah, my guy –
_________________________________________
- Did I ever tell 你 how I met your mom? – Lucas asks the little girl
- No – Rachel responds.
They are in the kitchen. Lucas is making a snack
- I was in the cafeteria with House…not a house, a man named House… – Lucas explains –…anyway Lisa enters the room she was wearing a dark blue 衬衫 with flowers, a dark blue skirt, and red shoes. She didn't even notices me, but as she walked away I gave her a compliment, and she saw me and right there…I knew I had to have her in my life –
- Then what? – Rachel eats a grapefruit
- Then nothing happened – Lucas frowns – But I got a 秒 chance. A 年 later –
- A year? – Rachel has no idea how much time a 年 is
- Yeah – Lucas sits down – That time I went all in –
- Here's your check – Cuddy hand over the paper to Lucas.
- Thank 你 – the private eye 说 – So now that I don't work for you…wanna go out for a date? –
It was the summer of 2009 and Cuddy hired Lucas to find out who was stealing in the accounting department.
Cuddy smiles – I'm flatter but my life right now it's…- she looked at the cute guy smiling back at her –… You're giving me that look –
- What look? –
Cuddy shook her head- Listen I can't –
- 你 can't? – Lucas got closer to her – You're not married, you're not engaged…you do like man right? –
- Lucas…do 你 really want to 日期 me? –
- Well first, I want to take 你 首页 tonight and make sweet 爱情 to 你 –
Cuddy eyes opened wide – I think I should slap you're right now –
- But 你 won't – Lucas told her – Because I'm being honest; 你 already know that I think you're sexy and smart. I want to 日期 you, be a proper boyfriend. … And I'm good with kids –
Cuddy just looked at him, trying to figure it him out. She grabbed him 由 the collar, pulled him closer and kissed him, kissed him hard.
- I had to know if I like 接吻 你 –
- And? –
- Let's go out tonight – Cuddy said.
- Maybe in 20 years, your mom will tell 你 that story – Lucas tells Rachel. – Anyway, she broke my heart…and now, I guess the third time's the charm –
- Can I have 更多 grapes? – Rachel 迷失 interest in the story a long time ago
- Finish your carrots first –
________________________________________
- He's awake – Foreman announces, after a few hours, House is awake and on his way to recovery.
Cuddy watches through the glass wall. She sees Foreman checking the vitals, Wilson smiling and the girlfriend holding hands with House.
- Are 你 Dr. Cuddy? – Two young women are standing 下一个 to her. Cuddy nods. – We are in Dr. House team, and we want to tell 你 that…you're like a legend around here –
Cuddy raises an eyebrow; then looks at Taub and Chase. They just shrug
– A legend? – She finally says
- Yes first woman as dean of medicine, 秒 youngest. Thanks to 你 PPTH got in the 最佳, 返回页首 10 teaching hospitals in the US –
- And 你 were the only one who could put House in his place…or so we were told – the other doctor says.
Cuddy smiles – Thanks for the ego booster – Her attention goes back to House; he's now looking at her.
_______________________________________
She steps into the room.
- We'll give 你 a moment – Wilson says. Everybody leaves the room.
It's a weird sensation to see each other after so long.
- That's my girlfriend, 由 the way – House says – She is a super model and a secret spy –
- Great combo – Cuddy tells him – How you're feeling? –
- Like I almost died – House 答案 – 你 know how it is, 你 get a patient with a bizarre disease and 你 end up sick yourself –
- Yeah…I remember – Cuddy stands 下一个 to his 床, 床上 – So how did I end up as your proxy? –
House makes a face – I appointed 你 after we broke up, I thought one 日 I would use it to make 你 feel guilty –
- Sounds like your kind of plan –
- I didn't think 你 would pulled a 'Thirteen' and disappear without a trace – House says – Actually, 你 did a better job –
- Thank 你 –
- So Wilson told me 你 had a baby –
- Not even 5 分钟 and Wilson is already gossiping –
- He's like a 13 年 old girl – House says – He also told me you're not married. Why is that? Baby daddy not good enough? –
- Not at all – Cuddy 答案 – He just doesn't want to marry me, because I broke off the 前一个 engagement and he ain't gonna ask again –
House frowns, he figures out who she's talking about – Him? Really? –
Cuddy smiles – He says "Hi" –
- He's a fool for taking 你 back –
- Well, he's my fool –
- Awww. Look at you. In 爱情 and having his 婴儿 – House jokes
- No, only one baby – Cuddy says – We named him Donald –
- After the duck? –
- After the philosopher Donald Davidson – Cuddy 答案 – He was one of Lucas' professors –
- So 你 finally settle for a boring normal suburban life –
Cuddy crosses her arms –Hurm… I'm in a relationship with a Private Investigator, who has a suspicious past, an odd sense of morality, and is years younger than me. We have two little kids with different last names…Yeah boring normal suburban life –
- Admitting it's the first step –
- Besides, look who's talking. 你 and the secret model –
- Secret spy, super model – House tells her – Get it right, Cuddy –
Cuddy smiles, this wasn't as bad as she anticipated.
- Cuddy…I'm sorry –
- I don't need to hear an apology –
- But I need to say it – House responds – I felt like a failure, I felt like the one good thing in my life was skipping away. I was angry and sad, I did something really stupid. I wanted to breakaway –
- I sent 你 to jail –
- I deserved it – House tells her – Funny thing…I pushed away everyone in my life at least once my parents, Wilson, Stacy, my team, but 你 never left. When Wilson told me 你 were gone…I knew it was forever –
- 你 hurt me House, and I hurt you. It was a vicious 圈, 圈子 –
- Now it's over –
- People leave your life, 你 can't help it, but that doesn't diminish your happy times with them – Cuddy tells House with a smile.
- We've had our moments –
- We certainly did – Silence between them – I should go now –
- Goodbye –
- Bye – Cuddy walks to the door
- Cuddy? –
- Yes? –
- Are 你 happy? – House asks her.
- I think so…yes, I am – Cuddy 答案 – Are 你 happy House? –
- I'm getting there –
___________________________________
Cuddy encounters Wilson on her way out.
- 你 aren't staying – Wilson tells her with sadness
- No –
- I could give 你 a job…maybe head of a department – the oncologist insists
- I have bigger things on mind – Cuddy says – Goodbye James – she gives him a 吻乐队（Kiss） on the cheek.
The rest of the team watches her walk away, Cuddy just waves goodbye. Some nurses and doctors stops her, they want to say hi. When she makes it to the lobby, takes a good look to what used to be her world. This time she's not running away, this time she leaves with her head up.
_________________________________________
- Please tell me 你 haven't watch "Blue's clues" all day? –
Cuddy says when she sees Lucas and Rachel on the living room.
- Mommy – Rachel runs to hug her mother.
- But its classic "Blue's clues" with Steve, not with Joe – Lucas tells her – and it's not all we did, I help her with a drawing. Go Rachel, 显示 your mom –
Rachel drew her family with crayons.
– That's me, and that's Luke and that's Donnie and that's 你 mommy – the girl says very proud of herself
- Oh look at 你 Lucas – Cuddy says – you're green –
- Yeah, but she got the hair right – He points out at the drawing. – Want dinner, baby? I made 茄子 Parmesan –
Cuddy never liked when men call her babe, sweetheart 或者 gorgeous, but she likes it when Lucas does it.
- Not hungry – Cuddy responds – I think we all should go to 床, 床上 –
After putting Rachel to bed, Lucas and Cuddy get ready to catch some sleep for they big 日 tomorrow.
- So everything is alright? – Lucas asks
- Yes – Cuddy sighs – I got closure, I needed that –
She looks at Lucas sitting on the edge of the 床, 床上 – Does it still bother you? That I dumped 你 –
- It's not a happy memory for me – Lucas tells her – But it was better this way. We could've gotten married, have kids; I've could been the best man in the world, and 你 would've been thinking 'What if?'–
- 你 know I always cared about 你 –
- I know it –
– And I don't know about the whole world, but I think you're the best man I've ever known –
- Wow! That's a high praise – Lucas says – I am happy with being in the 最佳, 返回页首 5, with your father, that teacher 你 told me about, and 你 know…other doctors 你 met…–
- You're so cute when 你 bumble – Cuddy tells him. – And yet, I don't want Donnie to talk like that –
- Hey! –
She goes to her dresser and takes off her earrings – 你 know? Tonight is the night we can have sex again. If you're in the mood… – she turns around – and you're already half naked. How did 你 get your clothes off so fast? –
- I'm really in the mood –
_________________________________________
The 下一个 day. In the baby's room.
- You're such beautiful baby – Cuddy is holding Donnie, she is sitting on the rocking chair. – Yes 你 are, yes 你 are –
- 你 know 你 don't have to hold him all the time – Luca says
- I have to go back to work in a few day, 你 are going to be with him all 日 – Cuddy says – Your dad is going to take real good care of 你 –
- Rachel, what do 你 think of your baby brother? –
- I like him, but he doesn't do anything – Rachel complains
- Don't worry, he'll grow up real fast and you're gonna have lots of fun with Donnie – Lucas tells her – Of course in 10 years he'll be annoying to you, but after high school everything will be cool –
- Okay Luke – Rachel says – Can I give him kiss? –
- Sure –
Cuddy watches the interaction between her kids. Lucas takes a picture of the moment.
Lisa Cuddy smiles – I never thought I'd have this life with you, but I'm happy to have it –
Lucas walk to her– Don't listen to your mom, I always knew –
- Really? – Cuddy smiles
- Okay, almost always –
They kiss.
The end
____________________________
YAY! Happy ending!
I think I accomplished what I wanted it. A) Give Cuddy a happy not quite normal life and closure with House and B) Make Lucas interesting and a good paring for Cuddy (I always thought that, the writers and 粉丝 didn't)
If the writers do as little as just hint that Cuddy is with Lucas, I'll be the happiest fangirlin the world (but I'm not holding my breath)
Thank 你 very much for reading.
Please leave a review in any language.

- But I need to say it – House responds – I felt like a failure, I felt like the one good thing in my life was skipping away. I was angry and sad, I did something really stupid. I wanted to breakaway –
- I sent 你 to jail –
- I deserved it – House tells her – Funny thing…I pushed away everyone in my life at least once my parents, Wilson, Stacy, my team, but 你 never left. When Wilson told me 你 were gone…I knew it was forever –
- 你 hurt me House, and I hurt you. It was a vicious 圈, 圈子 –
- Now it's over –
- People leave your life, 你 can't help it, but that doesn't diminish your happy times with them – Cuddy tells House with a smile.
- We've had our moments –
- We certainly did – Silence between them – I should go now –

- No –
- I could give 你 a job…maybe head of a department – the oncologist insists
- I have bigger things on mind – Cuddy says – Goodbye James – she gives him a 吻乐队（Kiss） on the cheek.
The rest of the team watches her walk away, Cuddy just waves goodbye. Some nurses and doctors stops her, they want to say hi. When she makes it to the lobby, takes a good look to what used to be her world. This time she's not running away, this time she leaves with her head up.

- Please tell me 你 haven't watch "Blue's clues" all day? –
Cuddy says when she sees Lucas and Rachel on the living room.
- Mommy – Rachel runs to hug her mother.
- But its classic "Blue's clues" with Steve, not with Joe – Lucas tells her – and it's not all we did, I help her with a drawing. Go Rachel, 显示 your mom –
Rachel drew her family with crayons.
– That's me, and that's Luke and that's Donnie and that's 你 mommy – the girl says very proud of herself
- Oh look at 你 Lucas – Cuddy says – you're green –
- Yeah, but she got the hair right – He points out at the drawing. – Want dinner, baby? I made 茄子 Parmesan –
Cuddy never liked when men call her babe, sweetheart 或者 gorgeous, but she likes it when Lucas does it.
- Not hungry – Cuddy responds – I think we all should go to 床, 床上 –
After putting Rachel to bed, Lucas and Cuddy get ready to catch some sleep for they big 日 tomorrow.
- So everything is alright? – Lucas asks
- Yes – Cuddy sighs – I got closure, I needed that –
She looks at Lucas sitting on the edge of the 床, 床上 – Does it still bother you? That I dumped 你 –
- It's not a happy memory for me – Lucas tells her – But it was better this way. We could've gotten married, have kids; I've could been the best man in the world, and 你 would've been thinking 'What if?'–
- 你 know I always cared about 你 –
- I know it –
– And I don't know about the whole world, but I think you're the best man I've ever known –
- Wow! That's a high praise – Lucas says – I am happy with being in the 最佳, 返回页首 5, with your father, that teacher 你 told me about, and 你 know…other doctors 你 met…–
- You're so cute when 你 bumble – Cuddy tells him. – And yet, I don't want Donnie to talk like that –
- Hey! –
She goes to her dresser and takes off her earrings – 你 know? Tonight is the night we can have sex again. If you're in the mood… – she turns around – and you're already half naked. How did 你 get your clothes off so fast? –
- I'm really in the mood –
_________________________________________
The 下一个 day. In the baby's room.
- You're such beautiful baby – Cuddy is holding Donnie, she is sitting on the rocking chair. – Yes 你 are, yes 你 are –
- 你 know 你 don't have to hold him all the time – Luca says
- I have to go back to work in a few day, 你 are going to be with him all 日 – Cuddy says – Your dad is going to take real good care of 你 –
- Rachel, what do 你 think of your baby brother? –
- I like him, but he doesn't do anything – Rachel complains
- Don't worry, he'll grow up real fast and you're gonna have lots of fun with Donnie – Lucas tells her – Of course in 10 years he'll be annoying to you, but after high school everything will be cool –
- Okay Luke – Rachel says – Can I give him kiss? –
- Sure –
Cuddy watches the interaction between her kids. Lucas takes a picture of the moment.

Lucas walk to her– Don't listen to your mom, I always knew –
- Really? – Cuddy smiles
- Okay, almost always –
They kiss.
The end
____________________________
YAY! Happy ending!
I think I accomplished what I wanted it. A) Give Cuddy a happy not quite normal life and closure with House and B) Make Lucas interesting and a good paring for Cuddy (I always thought that, the writers and 粉丝 didn't)
If the writers do as little as just hint that Cuddy is with Lucas, I'll be the happiest fangirlin the world (but I'm not holding my breath)
Thank 你 very much for reading.
