Meanwhile MacEnzie broods on his revenge. He’s furious and well determined to get Cuddy back. I was too kind with her last night, tonight she will understand who the boss is, and this Dr. House too! I’m going to 表示する him that he should never have challenged me, especially when it comes to women like Dr. Cuddy. As he thinks of her, of her beauty, of the sweetness of her skin, of her lips, his anger calms down. Fortunately none of his colleagues seem to have noticed his internal struggles. They just pointed out to him with a wink that he was very late this morning, what he answered smiling he had a restless night. His colleagues wanted to know もっと見る about it, and after they begged him, MacEnzie told them proudly that he “slept” – if they saw what he meant – with Dr. Cuddy. His colleagues couldn’t believe it, they thought MacEnzie was lying. A little vexed, he decided to 表示する them that Dr. Cuddy was crazy in 愛 with him as soon as he met her.
-Hey! MacEnzie! Still dreaming? Dr. Scott asks him and punches him gently on the shoulder.
-Hm? What? What did あなた say?
-I 発言しました that あなた were still dreaming… hm, let me guess… of Dr. Cuddy?
-No, no, I …, MacEnzie 返信 and blushes.
-Your nose is growing, Scott says mockingly.
-Shh!
-He, he, MacEnzie has the hots for Dr. Cuddy, his colleague repeats in the hall of the hospital.
-Stop saying stupid things, MacEnzie 返信 amused and flattered.
-Don’t blush MacEnzie, she’s stunning, I’d 愛 to have her in my bed, adds Dr. Laurence with a wink and a big smile full of allusions.
-MacEnzie has the hots for Dr. Cuddy! his colleagues now repeat in chorus and laugh.
-What the hell is this noise! they suddenly hear someone yell. They turn and see Dr. Cuddy. She looks wonderful but seems to be angry too and to wait for an explanation. Do あなた forget you’re in a hospital? she adds in a cold voice. They all look down at their shoes, murmur some excuses and go back to work. Doctor MacEnzie, I want あなた in my office right now! she says irritated and heads to her office. MacEnzie remains a few 秒 petrified, then he follows her trying to recompose a virile attitude.
-What happened? House asks to Dr. Scott.
-Oh, Dr. House, you’re here, I didn’t see you.
-Well, あなた know, we’re in a hospital, I’m a doctor and I work here, do あなた remember? House 返信 sarcastically.
-Yes, sure, I’m sorry, I …
-Don’t mind, it’s ok, so what happened? I think I heard Dr. Cuddy?
-Yes.
-And why did she yell like a dragon?
- She… she was angry because we were teasing MacEnzie too much loud. House gives him an amused look.
-Really? あなた were teasing MacEnzie… and may I know why?
-Because he told everyone that last night he slept with Dr. Cuddy…
-Oh, I see… and do あなた believe him? House 返信 staring at Scott.
-I don’t know, Dr. MacEnzie is a boaster and Dr. Cuddy is the new boss here, she’s gorgeous and a lot of us would like to spend a night with her …
-Pay attention on what あなた go to say, House 返信 in a threatening tone. Scott looks at House surprised and a little scared.
-I… You…, Scott stutters.
-Dr. Cuddy and I are together, never forget it and spread the word around you! And for your information she didn’t sleep with him, she sedated him! And she won’t sleep with whoever excepted with me, House says and heads to Cuddy’s office. I don’t want her to be alone with this moron if he barks everywhere that he slept with her, he might be dangerous. But his pager rings, the ER may have a case for him. House hesitates a few 秒 and decides to go to the ER. Cuddy is in the hospital, there are a lot of people around, MacEnzie isn’t stupid, he won’t do anything against her. And he needs a new case, a new puzzle to solve to forget a little the pain in his leg. He had thought that with the comeback of Cuddy, his pain would decrease, and effectively it had for a while, but her weird situation with MacEnzie is a 情報源 of stress, anguish and fear, and his leg hurts again.
-Ok, I’ll do it…, Scott says to House’s back. Wow! MacEnzie shouldn’t have yelled he made 愛 to Dr.Cuddy, House seems to be very angry and I wouldn’t like to be on MacEnzie’s place, even if he’s limping, House scares me. I’d rather explain the guys that they have to forget Dr. Cuddy…
-Dr. Cuddy, I’m sorry, あなた know the colleagues like to tease me, we like joking…
-Dr. MacEnzie, I don’t care! Cuddy 返信 coldly, but anger fills her voice too. I just want あなた and your colleagues to behave like doctors in a hospital and not like students at the University, I won’t accept prank. If あなた don’t want to accept my rules, then I’ll gladly accept your resign, she adds with a smile, waves in the direction of the door to make MacEnzie understand he has to go right now out of her office and without any contestation.
-But… Dr. Cuddy, he says and tries to touch her, yesterday あなた were so…
-I think あなた should go, she says firmly and gives him a black look.
MacEnzie looks at her surprised, but doesn’t dare to add anything else and goes out. His colleagues were waiting for him.
-And…? What did she want? Scott asks with a smile. A passionate kiss? A sensual embrace?
-Did あなた calm her with your irresistible charm? Laurence adds mockingly.
-Shut up! MacEnzie 返信 and fails to contain his anger.
-Oh oh! The beauty seems to have the upper hand over the beast, Scott 返信 ironically.
-It seems that our MacEnzie just received a slap in his face! Dr. Cuddy seems to have forgotten how sweet あなた were last night, Laurence adds amused.
-I 発言しました shut up! MacEnzie replies.
-Maybe we can have a chance with her now that she dumped あなた like a sock! Davis says with a smile.
-You’d better not, MacEnzie says coldly and gives Davis a threatening gaze.
-Hey, it’s a joke, Mac! Davis says. Calm down! Women are complicated, あなた know. It’s her first 日 here, it’s not easy for her, she has to prove us she’s the boss...
-Yeah…, あなた may be right, MacEnzie says after a while, his anger gone.
-Of course, I’m right! Davis adds. I’m sure she’ll apologize tonight when you’ll be alone with her, don’t worry…
-Yes…
-And it can be a good thing for you… if あなた get what I mean…, Laurence says.
-Yes! MacEnzie 返信 with a smile, thinking of Cuddy.
-Don’t あなた agree, Scott? Davis asks.
-Hm, yes, yes, certainly.
-Well, I have some work to do guys, see あなた later, MacEnzie says and leaves his colleagues. He needs to think about a plan to get rid of House and to 表示する Cuddy that she has to 表示する him もっと見る respect. And I know what I’m going to do… he thinks with a devilish smile.
-Hey Scott! Davis says.
-Yes?
-You seem to know something about MacEnzie and Dr. Cuddy…
-Hm… MacEnzie is a liar.
-What? exclaim Davis and Laurence. Tell us!
-Well… I met Dr. House a few 秒 after Dr. Cuddy send us back to work…
-And?
-And MacEnzie hallucinated his night with Dr. Cuddy, she sedated him… and あなた can forget her as a girlfriend…
-What did House tell you? asks Davis who fancies Cuddy.
-He told me that he and Dr. Cuddy are together and that if someone tries to ask her out, this someone will have problem with him… and I can assure あなた that he wasn’t joking at all.
-Well, I knew that he and Dr. Cuddy were together but I thought it was over between them… Davis says disappointed. However, I don’t understand why a beautiful woman like Dr. Cuddy is with a man like House.
-He has a certain charm and he’s very charismatic, Scott replies. That’s what the nurses say, he adds seeing the faces of his colleagues who are amazed.
-Maybe, but he’s limping and I don’t find him very friendly, Davis replies.
- And he can be a real jerk, Scott adds.
-I’m not afraid of him, Davis says.
-Do あなた think we should tell MacEnzie? Laurence asks.
-No, let him dream… and let us have fun, 返信 Davis with a wink.
Cuddy sits at her 机, デスク and is ロスト in her thought. Suddenly her door opens and House comes in.
-I see that あなた still don’t know that あなた have to knock at the door and wait for me to say “come in”, she says ironically.
-You know… the rules and I are not… good friends, he 返信 and smiles.
-What do あなた want? she asks and gives him a tender glance.
-Nothing…
-Really? Each time あなた storm in my office it’s either because あなた want to practice a risky procedure on a patient, または because あなた want something … unusual for a hospital like a TV wide screen for your office… or…
-I just want to know how you’re doing, he replies, sits on her 机, デスク close to her and gives her a tender gaze.
-I’m fine, I have a lot of work as あなた can imagine but it’s ok.
-And MacEnzie? he asks and scrutinizes her face.
-What MacEnzie?
-I heard あなた yell in the hall…
-Oh! Some of your colleagues were too loud for a hospital, nothing very important.
-Hmm… Do あなた know what MacEnzie says everywhere in the hospital?
-No, she 返信 and tenses up a little.
-He tells everyone that he slept with あなた last night…, House 返信 and looks at her straight in the eyes. He can see how her eyes darken with anger.
-What?! I can’t accept it! He’s going to hear from me! she says her voice filled with anger and stands up. House grabs her wrist and holds her.
-Cuddy, I … I need to know…, House says in a worried tone, and Cuddy can see jealousy and fear in his eyes.
-House! How can あなた only imagine…, she 返信 amazed and upset.
-Cuddy, I need to know, I trust あなた but…, he repeats and tightens her wrist a little more.
-No, House, no, あなた don’t trust me…, she says in a low voice and looks sadly at him, she feels so hurt.
-I do, Cuddy, I swear I do, but I don’t trust MacEnzie and he could have drugged あなた …, he adds torn up inside.
-I thought I could do this, I thought we could start again…because I 愛 あなた and I know あなた 愛 me… but I was wrong…, she adds and wipes some tears in her eyes.
-Cuddy… House says, lets her wrist and gives her an intense, but painful gaze.
-House, she says and looks at him straight in the eyes, I sedated MacEnzie and nothing happened between he and I, I don’t like him, he’s one of my employees and that’s all, and I’m going to clarify the situation right now, she says firmly, gives him a painful glance and leaves her office. House remains on her desk, unable to 移動する または to say something. He saw the pain in her eyes, he knows he hurt her, he knows he shouldn’t have asked her but… but he can’t help it.
Feel the tension!!
