Cuddy frowns – From one of my patients? – She takes the piece of paper

- This is ridiculous – Foreman komen-komen 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 anda so sure? –
- I'm right – Foreman jawapan – Wilson, choose the treatment atau let her choose – The doctor points to House's girlfriend. A woman in her early forties; sitting seterusnya 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 sejak 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 jam ago…- Wilson checks his watch.
- Seriously Wilson… – Cuddy enters the room –… anda could just forge my signature –
- Cuddy? – Chase is astounded
- She is House's proxy? – Foreman asks.
- Believe me Foreman, I'm as surprise as anda – She walks to center of the room; observes House on the bed. – What do anda want me to sign? –
Wilson is dead serious. – Actually, we haven't chosen the right treatment. Foreman thinks…-
- Wait! – Cuddy interrupts him – anda want me to make the final decision? –
- Well, yes – Wilson jawapan – You're a doctor, anda understand, you're his proxy –
– I can't believe anda – Cuddy says – anda called me because anda don't want to make a mistake –
- I called anda because is your obligation – Wilson tells her. Building lebih 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 jawapan – I heard much about anda –
- How long have anda been dating House? –
- Uhm…Since New tahun –
- Are anda living together? – Cuddy asks
- Not yet, we're talking about it. Taking things slow –
- Wise decision – Cuddy says – Have anda hear the options of treatment? Have Dr. Chase and Dr. Foreman explained them to you? –
- Yes, I understand them–
- Then anda 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 anda Cinta him and that you're saving his life –
The woman looks at Cuddy – I think that Dr. Foreman is right –
- anda made the right decision – Cuddy says to her, the same way she told Stacy so many years lalu – anda heard her – Cuddy says – Foreman, go ahead. I'll sign the forms –
Foreman nods.

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 utama 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

She stands up – So dean of medicine. Who did anda have to sleep with to get it? –
Wilson doesn't laugh. – anda disappeared – he finally speaks

- I came back! –
- Because anda wanted to –
- We were Friends – Wilson says – I understand that what happened was terrible for anda and that anda won't forgive House… –
- It was no longer about House! –
Wilson frowns.
- I was in Cinta 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 seterusnya 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, anda know for my age, and he was born premature but he's fine now. We can take him utama tomorrow –
- We? Who is "we"?–
- Me and the father – Cuddy responds
- Oh…so anda have a husb…– Wilson mumbles – anda know a guy –
- Yeah, my guy –
_________________________________________

They are in the kitchen. Lucas is making a snack

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 –

- Yeah – Lucas sits down – That time I went all in –
- Here's your check – Cuddy hand over the paper to Lucas.
- Thank anda – the private eye berkata – 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 –
- anda can't? – Lucas got closer to her – You're not married, you're not engaged…you do like man right? –
- Lucas…do anda really want to tarikh me? –
- Well first, I want to take anda utama tonight and make sweet Cinta to anda –
Cuddy eyes opened wide – I think I should slap you're right now –
- But anda won't – Lucas told her – Because I'm being honest; anda already know that I think you're sexy and smart. I want to tarikh 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 sejak the collar, pulled him closer and kissed him, kissed him hard.
- I had to know if I like Ciuman anda –
- And? –
- Let's go out tonight – Cuddy said.
- Maybe in 20 years, your mom will tell anda that story – Lucas tells Rachel. – Anyway, she broke my heart…and now, I guess the third time's the charm –
- Can I have lebih grapes? – Rachel Lost 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 anda Dr. Cuddy? – Two young women are standing seterusnya to her. Cuddy nods. – We are in Dr. House team, and we want to tell anda 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, saat youngest. Thanks to anda PPTH got in the bahagian, atas 10 teaching hospitals in the US –
- And anda 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 anda a moment – Wilson says. Everybody leaves the room.
It's a weird sensation to see each other after so long.
- That's my girlfriend, sejak 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 jawapan – anda know how it is, anda get a patient with a bizarre disease and anda end up sick yourself –
- Yeah…I remember – Cuddy stands seterusnya to his katil – So how did I end up as your proxy? –
House makes a face – I appointed anda after we broke up, I thought one hari I would use it to make anda feel guilty –
- Sounds like your kind of plan –
- I didn't think anda would pulled a 'Thirteen' and disappear without a trace – House says – Actually, anda did a better job –
- Thank anda –
- So Wilson told me anda had a baby –
- Not even 5 minit and Wilson is already gossiping –
- He's like a 13 tahun old girl – House says – He also told me you're not married. Why is that? Baby daddy not good enough? –
- Not at all – Cuddy jawapan – He just doesn't want to marry me, because I broke off the sebelumnya 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 anda back –
- Well, he's my fool –
- Awww. Look at you. In Cinta and having his Bayi – House jokes
- No, only one baby – Cuddy says – We named him Donald –
- After the duck? –
- After the philosopher Donald Davidson – Cuddy jawapan – He was one of Lucas' professors –
- So anda 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. anda 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 anda 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 anda never left. When Wilson told me anda were gone…I knew it was forever –
- anda hurt me House, and I hurt you. It was a vicious bulatan –
- Now it's over –
- People leave your life, anda 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 anda happy? – House asks her.
- I think so…yes, I am – Cuddy jawapan – Are anda happy House? –
- I'm getting there –

Cuddy encounters Wilson on her way out.
- anda aren't staying – Wilson tells her with sadness
- No –
- I could give anda a job…maybe head of a department – the oncologist insists
- I have bigger things on mind – Cuddy says – Goodbye James – she gives him a Ciuman 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 anda 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, tunjuk your mom –
Rachel drew her family with crayons.
– That's me, and that's Luke and that's Donnie and that's anda mommy – the girl says very proud of herself
- Oh look at anda Lucas – Cuddy says – you're green –
- Yeah, but she got the hair right – He points out at the drawing. – Want dinner, baby? I made terung Parmesan –
Cuddy never liked when men call her babe, sweetheart atau gorgeous, but she likes it when Lucas does it.
- Not hungry – Cuddy responds – I think we all should go to katil –
After putting Rachel to bed, Lucas and Cuddy get ready to catch some sleep for they big hari 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 katil – Does it still bother you? That I dumped anda –
- 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 anda would've been thinking 'What if?'–
- anda know I always cared about anda –
- 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 bahagian, atas 5, with your father, that teacher anda told me about, and anda know…other doctors anda met…–
- You're so cute when anda 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 – anda 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 anda get your clothes off so fast? –
- I'm really in the mood –
_________________________________________
The seterusnya day. In the baby's room.
- You're such beautiful baby – Cuddy is holding Donnie, she is sitting on the rocking chair. – Yes anda are, yes anda are –
- anda know anda don't have to hold him all the time – Luca says
- I have to go back to work in a few day, anda are going to be with him all hari – Cuddy says – Your dad is going to take real good care of anda –
- Rachel, what do anda 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 peminat-peminat 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 anda very much for reading.
Please leave a review in any language.

- 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 anda never left. When Wilson told me anda were gone…I knew it was forever –
- anda hurt me House, and I hurt you. It was a vicious bulatan –
- Now it's over –
- People leave your life, anda 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 anda happy? – House asks her.
- I think so…yes, I am – Cuddy jawapan – Are anda happy House? –
- I'm getting there –

Cuddy encounters Wilson on her way out.
- anda aren't staying – Wilson tells her with sadness
- No –
- I could give anda a job…maybe head of a department – the oncologist insists
- I have bigger things on mind – Cuddy says – Goodbye James – she gives him a Ciuman 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 anda 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, tunjuk your mom –
Rachel drew her family with crayons.
– That's me, and that's Luke and that's Donnie and that's anda mommy – the girl says very proud of herself
- Oh look at anda Lucas – Cuddy says – you're green –
- Yeah, but she got the hair right – He points out at the drawing. – Want dinner, baby? I made terung Parmesan –
Cuddy never liked when men call her babe, sweetheart atau gorgeous, but she likes it when Lucas does it.
- Not hungry – Cuddy responds – I think we all should go to katil –
After putting Rachel to bed, Lucas and Cuddy get ready to catch some sleep for they big hari 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 katil – Does it still bother you? That I dumped anda –
- 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 anda would've been thinking 'What if?'–
- anda know I always cared about anda –
- 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 bahagian, atas 5, with your father, that teacher anda told me about, and anda know…other doctors anda met…–
- You're so cute when anda 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 – anda 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 anda get your clothes off so fast? –
- I'm really in the mood –
_________________________________________
The seterusnya day. In the baby's room.
- You're such beautiful baby – Cuddy is holding Donnie, she is sitting on the rocking chair. – Yes anda are, yes anda are –
- anda know anda don't have to hold him all the time – Luca says
- I have to go back to work in a few day, anda are going to be with him all hari – Cuddy says – Your dad is going to take real good care of anda –
- Rachel, what do anda 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 peminat-peminat 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)
