Author: Ebony-Jayne

Summary: Chapter Two of my little songfic. Song is 'Am I Not Pretty Enough?' by Kasey Chambers. I heard it at work the other day and in my head it sounded good for this chapter.

I Only Want To Be With You

Part Two

Am I not pretty enough?

Is my heart too broken?

Do I cry too much?

Am I too outspoken?

Don't I make you laugh?

Should I try it harder?

Why do you see right through me?

Allison Cameron sighed heavily as she sorted through House's mail. As she placed the 'important' pile on his desk she slipped another envelope into the middle of it. Her letter of resignation. She wasn't even entirely sure why she was doing this. 'Don't kid yourself Allison' her brain told her. 'You're resigning because he broke your heart and dragged it through the mud'. Allison sighed again and took a long look around the office before leaving and putting into effect her plan to avoid House for the rest of the day.

I live, I breathe, I let it rain on me,

I sleep, I wake, I try hard not to break,

I crave, I love, I've waited long enough,

I try as hard as I can.

Am I not pretty enough?

Is my heart too broken?

Do I cry too much?

Am I too outspoken?

Don't I make you laugh?

Should I try it harder?

Why do you see right through me?

Allison sat on the roof going over herself in her head, trying to figure out why House hated her so much. She recalled him saying that he was damaged and thought that maybe she was the damaged one. Maybe she had been all along. She had always gotten into relationships where she knew before it even began that she was going to get her heart broken. When she was sixteen she went out with a boy who she knew was on a rebound, and who had promptly ditched her and gotten back together with the other girl. Then there had been her husband, Jack. She had known Jack was dying when she met him. He had been diagnosed with cancer at the same time as a friend of Allison's. She had fallen in love with him and married him even though she knew he was going to die. It had taken her years to get over the intense pain from that one. Maybe that was why House didn't like her. Maybe she was just too broken.

I laugh, I feel, I make believe it's real,

I fall, I freeze, I pray down on my knees,

I hope, I stand, I take it like a man,

I try as hard as I can.

Am I not pretty enough?

Is my heart too broken?

Do I cry too much?

Am I too outspoken?

Don't I make you laugh?

Later, as Allison drove around aimlessly she recalled an incident that had happened in the carpark…

She heard the steady thump, thump, thump of a cane behind her as she walked to her car. She turned and came face to face with the person she was trying to avoid.

"What does it look like," she responded, her voice as bland and emotionless as she could make it.

"You can't resign!" she noticed that House actually sounded desperate.

"I can and I have," she responded in the same dull voice.

"Why?" he asked like a petulant child whose mother wouldn't let him have a candy bar.

"You are a bastard, Dr House. You insult me, you treat me like I'm an idiot and I don't know what I'm doing. You…you use me. I've had enough. I'm leaving," she was furious with herself as tears began to run down her cheeks.

"I…I don't want you to go," he whispered.

"Why not?" she asked in defeat. She just didn't know what to do. He sounded as though he was going to start begging her to stay.

"Because I love you," Allison almost couldn't hear him. She wasn't sure if he'd just told her that he loved her or if her ears were playing tricks on her.

"What did you say?" she asked her voice shook slightly.

"I love you," he repeated louder. He leaned in and pressed his lips to hers. Only for a second though before he pulled away. "Please, Allison, don't go," then turned and walked away.

Oh god. Now her world was turned completely upside down. She couldn't go but she didn't know how she could stay either. Now it was messy.

As Allison pulled her car over she switched off the radio. She'd never been Kasey Chambers' biggest fan anyway. Suddenly she realised exactly where she was. She was outside his house and she was getting out of the car. Almost as though she was in a daze she walked up to his building. She climbed the stairs instead of waiting for the elevator and suddenly she was in front of his door. She raised her arm to knock when the door opened and House's shocked face was staring down at her. She sucked in a breath.

"Hi."
