"Does anyone want some еще champagne?" Lila asked before going back into the kitchen.
"I'd Любовь some." Cate replied.
"Cate, how has it been being back at Princeton Plainsboro? I mean after being in Nepal last год do Ты miss the exotic locales?" Kutner asked.
"Sometimes I miss the excitement of a new place that is far removed from our own society. Studying different psychological adaptions in such areas is intriguing but it has been nice to be Главная again too. I forgot what a luxury it is to have whatever kind of meal I want when I want it. I got so use to the bare minimum."
"I envy you, Cate. I always wanted to do Doctors Without Borders." Cameron сказал(-а) as she took a mouthful of chicken curry.
"Maybe we could sign up together this summer." Chase suggested as he accepted the pepper from her.
"Oh, Ты two Любовь birds always wanting to save the world from misery." House сказал(-а) as he gulped down his drink.
Cameron rolled her eyes, and Chase just smirked.
"Here Ты go, Cate." Lila сказал(-а) as she reappeared with an open bottle of champagne.
"Thanks."
"So, Luke how did Ты and Lisa meet?" Lila asked as she took a сиденье, место, сиденья Далее to Wilson.
"Oh, well it's not really the greatest story..."
"Not a great story? This doesn't bode well." House сказал(-а) in a sarcastic tone.
Cuddy glared at him. Cate kicked House's foot under the table. Lila looked at the two couples noticing the tension building and decided to change the subject.
"So, Taub when is the baby due?"
Taub's face lit up instantly at the mention of his daughter to be.
"One еще month. We've decided on a name finally."
"Sexy Sadie? Layla? Roxanne? Oh, please tell me it's not Mandy." House said.
"Clarissa is what we settled on." Taub answered unphased by House's comments.
"That's a beautiful name, Taub." Wilson сказал(-а) absentmindedly as he watched House stare at Cuddy with intense concentration.
"House, I need your help in the kitchen." Wilson сказал(-а) suddenly.
"You do?" Lila asked confused.
"Yeah, why do Ты need me? Lila, made dinner."
"I need Ты to help me with the cake."
Lila shook her head in agreement. House reluctantly moved out of his сиденье, место, сиденья and followed Wilson.
**************************************************
"Why are Ты so focused on Cuddy?" Wilson asked as he took out the plates for the cake.
House sat down on the stool.
"I'm not. Give me the damn нож so I can cut the cake."
Wilson held the нож out to him.
"You're practically x-raying her."
"Am not."
"House, tell me what's going on."
"It's nothing."
"I know it's not nothing but I also know that you'll tell me in your own time. Just don't do anything rash until we talk."
"Yes, mother." House replied as he put the sliced pieces of cake on each plate.
**************************************************
The party had moved to the living room and everyone was sitting around enjoying their dessert. The conversations were трещина, сплит amongst the couples. Cameron and Chase chatted with Foreman and Thirteen while Lila and Wilson talked with her brother's and their wives. Taub and Kutner laughed about a bet they made a few days earlier.
Cuddy and Cate were having a lighthearted discussion about their Избранное designers while House and Luke sat quietly across from one another.
Lila saw House sitting somewhat by himself and decided this would be the perfect time to steal him away for a follow up to their earlier phone conversation. Getting up she motioned for House to meet her in the kitchen. He caught her signal and headed over. He excused himself by saying he that wanted to get a cold пиво for the road.
**************************************************
"So, I got the spot at the end of the night to perform." Lila сказал(-а) as she got a bottle of water from the refrigerator.
"I can't believe I agreed to this."
"You Любовь playing piano. I Любовь to sing. It's a natural progression that Ты accompany me at the club. Anyway, it's a surprise for James."
"You Пение one of his Избранное songs acheives what exactly? Ты already got him to say yes." House сказал(-а) as he went in to the fridge and got out a пиво anyway.
"It will make him happy. It shows him how much I care. It's romantic. Do I really need to explain this further,Greg?"
"I hate that Ты call me Greg."
"It's your name. So, I call Ты it." She сказал(-а) with a smirk.
"If Ты weren't Wilson's soon to be wife..."
"You'd still accompany me because Ты Любовь performing just as much as I do."
House grinned at her and then took a swig of beer.
"So, I'll Показать up at your place tomorrow at six to rehearse." She said.
"Sure. Just don't expect me to dress up for the big night."
"I wouldn't dream of it." She сказал(-а) with a chuckle.
**************************************************
Lila left House alone in the kitchen. He wasn't ready to go back into the lions логово, ден quite yet. Looking for something to do, House started looking through the drawers for anything incrimintating to use against Wilson later.
"What are Ты up to?" Cuddy asked as she suddenly came through the кухня door.
"Looking for hidden treasure."
Cuddy rolled her eyes and went into the refrigerator for a water bottle.
"Your little snide Комментарии toward Luke aren't necessary. He already hates you. Ты don't have to keep trying so hard to make his shit list. You're already there."
"Yeah, but I want to be number one on that list."
Cuddy sat down on the стул Далее to House.
"You always get so territorial when I'm dating someone. Ты have someone. A great someone. I'm sure she's picking up on this pissing contest of yours. She is a psychiatrist afterall."
"This isn't about Cate. This about you. He's a poor man's version of me."
"Actually, I think he's a rich man's version of you. He's not a strung out, drug-addled, misanthrope." Cuddy сказал(-а) as she leaned into House's face.
House hadn't been this close to her in a long time. He could smell her perfume. It was a mixture of vanilla and honey.
"No comeback, House?"
House saw a piece of hair suddenly fall over her eye. Before she had a chance to Переместить it his fingers smoothed the strand back behind her ear.
"No comeback." He сказал(-а) as he slowly took his hand from her hair.
Cuddy let out a soft breath at the action.
"Ummm, I better get back." She сказал(-а) as she looked down at her water bottle.
"...Yeah. I should probably get Cate and head out."
"Yeah..."
House limped out of the кухня before the moment could get anymore awkward. Cuddy soon followed.
"I'd Любовь some." Cate replied.
"Cate, how has it been being back at Princeton Plainsboro? I mean after being in Nepal last год do Ты miss the exotic locales?" Kutner asked.
