Cuddy woke up in a daze, her head felt like it was inside a vice, it was only when she sat up, that she noticed a glass of water on the coffee meza, jedwali in front of her, with a Vicodin tablet inayofuata to it. Cuddy looked at it confused, but then a smile came across her face.
Cuddy: House?
Cuddy called out, but there was no reply. She was alone. Picking herself up, she slipped into the kuoga and began to remember what happened last night. She bowed her head; the water from the showerhead dripping down her face and back. It was the only time she allowed herself to cry; the water could hide the tears.
When she stepped into her bedroom, she get dressed, and looked at herself one last time in the mirror. Smiling with enthusiasm, before her frown re-appeared.
Meanwhile…
House had driven back nyumbani on his motorcycle at around one o’clock in the morning. As he slumped onto his side, in his bed, he checked the time on the alarm clock. It read eight o’clock, still too early for him. Before he could go back to sleep, he smiled at the image of Cuddy sleeping softly in his arms. House would normally relish the thought of being in that situation with any other woman, but not with Cuddy. Instead, he felt different. With a questionable look on his face, House took a mental step back and thought for a moment. Was he feeling something more, something deeper, for Cuddy?
Sitting up in his bed, he closed his eyes and his mind immediately jumped to the kiss they both shared months ago. He felt a sinking feeling inside his stomach, and he finally connected the dots; he had fallen for her, after all these years, he had finally found the missing piece of the puzzle.
