"I like this view." House said as he sat a 상단, 맨 위로 the roof of Ariel's apartment building. She sat down in the chair beside him and handed him a beer.
"Thanks...I use to always hide on the rooftop at the hospital." He said.
She smiled as she drank some of her own beer.
"Your own hidden sanctuary?"
"Sort of, but I was always found."
"It's chilly tonight... maybe we should have stayed for the 11:15 showing." She said as she leaned further back into her chair.
"No movie can match this." He said as he pointed the the lit up skyscrapers and the full moon above.
She turned to look at him. He had a soft smile playing on his lips. He turned his attention away from the skyline and on to her. He took off his blazer and handed it to her.
"Thanks." She said softly.

"Why did 당신 disappear last night?" She asked him as she handed him a bowl of popcorn. They both had retreated from the roof to her apartment living room.
He propped his foot on 상단, 맨 위로 of a 베개 and sighed.
"Wasn't in the mood for rejection."
"You wouldn't have been rejected. I was kind of annoyed 의해 the fact that 당신 were x-raying me with your stare, but I would have heard 당신 out."
He nodded in thanks.
"This is the longest 'outing' I've ever had." He said as he looked at the clock to find it was 1am.
"It has been kind of endless." She said with a smirk. He playfully rolled his eyes.
"Would 당신 like to have 공식 만찬, 저녁 식사 at my place tomorrow, 또는 technically tonight?" He asked her.
"Yes. That would be nice."
The two just smiled at one another for a moment.
"Good...I should probably get going."
She walked him to the door. He leaned in to 키스 her on the cheek, unsure of how far she'd let him take things. At the last moment she turned her head so that his lips met hers.
"You tricked me." He said with a pleased grin on his face. She gently stroked his cheek and then backed away.
"Goodnight, Greg." She said with a smile.
"Goodnight, Ariel."
