Come on Life

This fan-fiction starts during Bombshells, you'll understand it when you start reading the first few lines. No break-up in sigh, not at all. This is a vaery shot chapter, barely reaching 605 words; I consider it an introduction because I want to know if you guys want me to keep writing this story or not... So, leave a review telling me if I should keep writing it or not. Thanks :)


Chapter 1

"I brought you something." he said, his hands reaching for something hidden in his pocket. Cuddy smiled surprised at his sweet gesture. "Say hello to your tumor!" he said, smirking while handing her what had been extracted from her kidneys during the surgery. Her smile immediately faded, replaced by a very disgusted expression. He was about to retrieve his hand when her hands meet his, stopping him.

"Wait!" she said. She took the tiny glass box in her hands, her eyes locked onto it as if wondering how such a little things had made her so scared. She sighed. "There are so many things I could be afraid of and most of the time I manage to lock them up behind doors." she said, gesturing with her hands to the benign tumor she still held in her hand. "I had a lot of time to think about my life, about the choices I made along the years." she started, her left hand reaching for his. "I have a daughter now, whom I love more than my own life and with my job I provide her whatever she needs. But I realized that I've missed so many things because I was way too worried about settling down and have a family on my own. In the past few years I have barely had fun: I never go out with friends, I don't travel any more, I haven't gotten drunk nor smocked weed since college..." she said, chuckling.

"You've never been to Las Vegas..." he said, adding this to Cuddy's mental list. She laughed and nodded.

"You're right..." she confirmed. "And since we got together I managed to accomplish some of the things I missed along the years, and I shall thank you for this." she thanked him, smiling sweetly, squeezing his hand in hers tightly. "And after this almost near-death experience I want things to change. I want to live a little." she concluded.

House stared at her, obviously confused by her girlfriend's words. "What do you mean?" he asked dumbfounded.

"I want to take some time off, spend it with my daughter and with you. I want to go out more, meet my old friends, travel all along the world, maybe Europe and perhaps I'll finally learn Italian..." she said laughing. House kept staring at her more shocked and confused, not believing what Cuddy had just said.

She lifted their still intertwined hands and kisses his knuckles, smiling softly at him. He could see the glee in her eyes, which were silently telling him that she was waiting for an answer. "Are you serious about this?" he asked, his face emotionless.

Cuddy stared at him, a feeling of uneasiness starting to feel his chest. She knew he was not going to accept her plan and she didn't want to leave him now that they were finally together after all those years. "Yes, I am." she replied.

His eyes were still locked onto hers. "Lisa, are you sure?" he asked again. She frowned a little upon hearing him call her by her first name.

"I am." she answered again.

"Then I'm okay with whatever you want to do from now on." he replied, a small smile coming to his lips as her eyes widened and her hands reached behind his neck drawing him closer to her body into a slow kiss.


Again, leave a review telling me if I should keep writing it or not. Thnx
