"You drugged me!" House stated as he entered Cuddy's office.
"It was for your own good. You were being an idiot. Anyway, it all worked out for the best. The trial separation is finally over, and your better half is back," she said smiling.
"It only took one weird road trip for him to realize he couldn't live without me," he said with a dramatic shrug of his head.
"I'm glad you two have both figured out how important you are to each other."
"Don't get all Lifetime channel on me, Cuddy."
Rolling her eyes, Cuddy started to pack up her briefcase and purse to head home.
"You know, for a minute there, I thought my mom had called you," he said as he walked to stand next to her.
"Don't worry House, I'm not on her speed dial."
"At first, I thought my mom had some ideas about my relationship with you."
"What ideas?" she said turning her face up to look at him.
"That you're more than a boss, she-Devil incarnate, pain in my ass..."
Cuddy broke into laughter. House looked at her questioningly.
"You thought that she thought..."
Cuddy couldn't even finish her sentence without laughing.
"It's not that funny."
"A little funny considering all the hell you put me through following the infarction which your mom was witness to."
"I wasn't that mean to you."
"You were mean enough. I remember alot of swearing, comparison's to me as Dr. Mengele which was very odd considering I am Jewish, and one incident in which you called me and Stacy heartless banshees."
"The pain in my leg was raw... I didn't mean half of it. By half I mean the half directed at you. You just did what you were supposed to do as a doctor."
Cuddy looked taken aback by his statement. It was his way of saying he forgave her without having to say it.
"Well, I'm glad that's how you see it."
House nodded and began to leave the room.
"House?"
House turned toward her once more. Cuddy wasn't exactly sure what she wanted to say so she instead walked up to him and hugged him. He of course stood limp afraid to pull her closer, but she did feel him lean into her a little.
Pulling back, Cuddy saw a slight blush on his face. She started to blush a little herself.
"Can I go now or will you have your way with me next?" he said in a slightly higher tone than he intended.
She simply nodded with a sly grin. House walked out of the office and turned to leave through the hospital entrance. Wilson was waiting for him by his car. They had planned on celebrating their reunion by bowling.
"What's with the smile?" Wilson asked.
House hadn't realized he was smiling.
"It was for your own good. You were being an idiot. Anyway, it all worked out for the best. The trial separation is finally over, and your better half is back," she said smiling.
