It's Christmas Eve and yet they have to work some hours in the hospital. When they get home after a hard day of work, they make their Christmas dinner together and sit at the table. Some time later they finish eating. ‘Wow I'm full...’ Lisa says.
‘Yeah... you look like a turkey in Thanks Giving...’
‘Your compliments are getting worse with time...’
‘I mean... like the most beautiful turkey in a farm...’
She chuckles. ‘That doesn't make me feel better...’
‘Fuck... well... I tried...’
‘You wanna eat something else?’
‘Nope... don't wanna know how a turkey feels like...’
She looks at him pretending she is angry. ‘After all those awful things you're saying I don't know if I should give you what I have for you...’
‘If it's wild and savage sex I take those words back!!’
‘Hmmm I wasn’t thinking about that right now, but maybe later...’ Cuddy takes a bag and gives it to Greg. ‘It’s a silly thing...’
He stares at her. ‘You shouldn't have bought this, you know I haven't bought anything for you...’
‘Yes, I know, and I don’t need you buying anything for me... Open it, it’s stupid, but I saw it and I had to buy it.’
House opens the gift and it’s a wooden train. He chuckles. ‘It's... perfect... I' don't feel frustrated anymore...’
Lisa smiles looking at him. ‘You like it? Really? So you now you don’t have anything against Santa, do you?’
‘I do have something against him... it took him over 40 years to give me this!’ He smiles and kisses her.
‘Well, sorry Santa, I tried.’ Lisa says joking.
‘Oh, he must feel so disappointed right now...’
‘Poor Santa... Actually I don’t care about him, I’m glad you liked it.’ She smirks. ‘Today I can say it: Merry Christmas.’
‘Okay, now I'm serious. Stop it...’
She looks at him serious. ‘Okay... I'll try.’
‘If you don't stop it, I'll make you put 5 bucks in a jar every time you say it, and afterwards, I'll be rich...’ He smiles at her. He doesn’t want to admit it, but these are the best Christmas he ever had, well actually this is the first time that he cares about Christmas.
‘But it’s Christmas, I can say it, and I’m happy.’ She smiles widely. ‘And I know you’re dying to say it as well…’
‘Okay, enough... give at least 25 dollars for all the times you've said that sentence tonight... now I'm angry!!’ Greg says kidding.
‘Hmmm’ Lisa approaches to him a little. ‘Nope.’ She gets a bit closer. ‘Say it, it’s easy.’ And gives him a kiss.
He approaches more to Cuddy. ‘I'm not gonna say it and you have to pay me...’ And gives her a kiss.
‘I’m not gonna stop until you say it.’ Lisa gives him another kiss. ‘I’m not gonna stop saying it, I mean.’
He chuckles. ‘I'm not gonna say it...’
‘Oh yes you are...’
‘Sorry, but no...’
She gets closer and starts tickling gently his neck. ‘Why not?’
‘Why yes? Because everybody else does? I don't need to say it...’ He kisses her again.
‘It’s a way of wishing people to be happy, is not that bad...’ She kisses him. ‘And you can make people happy with such a silly and easy sentence.’
‘But it's a meaningless sentence for me... I can make you happy in other ways...’
‘Such as?’
He gives her a kiss. ‘Is that an answer for you?’
She smiles and kisses him back. ‘An “I love you” would have been nice too... Is it also meaningless for you?’
‘Well... it depends on the person who I'm saying it to...’
‘I think we're alone now, so there’s no other person.’
‘In that case, it wouldn't be meaningless...’ They kiss again.
‘I love that you make me happy.’
‘I'm still learning how to do it...’ Says House.
‘You’re doing great.’ They stare at each other.
‘Thanks... I'm doing my homework every day.’
She chuckles. ‘You’re getting an A.’
He chuckles too. ‘ I love you...’
‘You’re getting and A+++++’ She laughs and kisses him. He hugs her and they stay that way for a while.
‘Let's go to bed, I'm tired and I guess I won't have a day off tomorrow, right boss?’
‘You know me well’ Cuddy smirks. ‘Let’s go to sleep.’
They go to bed yawning and turn off the lights.
‘Goodnight, Greg... And Merry Christmas.’ She smiles slightly and closes her eyes.
House smiles and whispers. ‘Merry Christmas...’
She holds his hand in the dark and some time later they fall asleep.
