Meanwhile MacEnzie broods on his revenge. He’s furious and well determined to get Cuddy back. I was too kind with her last night, tonight she will understand who the boss is, and this Dr. House too! I’m going to show him that he should never have challenged me, especially when it comes to women like Dr. Cuddy. As he thinks of her, of her beauty, of the sweetness of her skin, of her lips, his anger calms down. Fortunately none of his colleagues seem to have noticed his internal struggles. They just pointed out to him with a wink that he was very late this morning, what he answered smiling he had a restless night. His colleagues wanted to know 더 많이 about it, and after they begged him, MacEnzie told them proudly that he “slept” – if they saw what he meant – with Dr. Cuddy. His colleagues couldn’t believe it, they thought MacEnzie was lying. A little vexed, he decided to show them that Dr. Cuddy was crazy in 사랑 with him as soon as he met her.
-Hey! MacEnzie! Still dreaming? Dr. Scott asks him and punches him gently on the shoulder.
-Hm? What? What did 당신 say?
-I said that 당신 were still dreaming… hm, let me guess… of Dr. Cuddy?
-No, no, I …, MacEnzie replies and blushes.
-Your nose is growing, Scott says mockingly.
-Shh!
-He, he, MacEnzie has the hots for Dr. Cuddy, his colleague repeats in the hall of the hospital.
-Stop saying stupid things, MacEnzie replies amused and flattered.
-Don’t blush MacEnzie, she’s stunning, I’d 사랑 to have her in my bed, adds Dr. Laurence with a wink and a big smile full of allusions.
-MacEnzie has the hots for Dr. Cuddy! his colleagues now repeat in chorus and laugh.
-What the hell is this noise! they suddenly hear someone yell. They turn and see Dr. Cuddy. She looks wonderful but seems to be angry too and to wait for an explanation. Do 당신 forget you’re in a hospital? she adds in a cold voice. They all look down at their shoes, murmur some excuses and go back to work. Doctor MacEnzie, I want 당신 in my office right now! she says irritated and heads to her office. MacEnzie remains a few 초 petrified, then he follows her trying to recompose a virile attitude.
-What happened? House asks to Dr. Scott.
-Oh, Dr. House, you’re here, I didn’t see you.
-Well, 당신 know, we’re in a hospital, I’m a doctor and I work here, do 당신 remember? House replies sarcastically.
-Yes, sure, I’m sorry, I …
-Don’t mind, it’s ok, so what happened? I think I heard Dr. Cuddy?
-Yes.
-And why did she yell like a dragon?
- She… she was angry because we were teasing MacEnzie too much loud. House gives him an amused look.
-Really? 당신 were teasing MacEnzie… and may I know why?
-Because he told everyone that last night he slept with Dr. Cuddy…
-Oh, I see… and do 당신 believe him? House replies staring at Scott.
-I don’t know, Dr. MacEnzie is a boaster and Dr. Cuddy is the new boss here, she’s gorgeous and a lot of us would like to spend a night with her …
-Pay attention on what 당신 go to say, House replies in a threatening tone. Scott looks at House surprised and a little scared.
-I… You…, Scott stutters.
-Dr. Cuddy and I are together, never forget it and spread the word around you! And for your information she didn’t sleep with him, she sedated him! And she won’t sleep with whoever excepted with me, House says and heads to Cuddy’s office. I don’t want her to be alone with this moron if he barks everywhere that he slept with her, he might be dangerous. But his pager rings, the ER may have a case for him. House hesitates a few 초 and decides to go to the ER. Cuddy is in the hospital, there are a lot of people around, MacEnzie isn’t stupid, he won’t do anything against her. And he needs a new case, a new puzzle to solve to forget a little the pain in his leg. He had thought that with the comeback of Cuddy, his pain would decrease, and effectively it had for a while, but her weird situation with MacEnzie is a 출처 of stress, anguish and fear, and his leg hurts again.
-Ok, I’ll do it…, Scott says to House’s back. Wow! MacEnzie shouldn’t have yelled he made 사랑 to Dr.Cuddy, House seems to be very angry and I wouldn’t like to be on MacEnzie’s place, even if he’s limping, House scares me. I’d rather explain the guys that they have to forget Dr. Cuddy…
-Dr. Cuddy, I’m sorry, 당신 know the colleagues like to tease me, we like joking…
-Dr. MacEnzie, I don’t care! Cuddy replies coldly, but anger fills her voice too. I just want 당신 and your colleagues to behave like doctors in a hospital and not like students at the University, I won’t accept prank. If 당신 don’t want to accept my rules, then I’ll gladly accept your resign, she adds with a smile, waves in the direction of the door to make MacEnzie understand he has to go right now out of her office and without any contestation.
-But… Dr. Cuddy, he says and tries to touch her, yesterday 당신 were so…
-I think 당신 should go, she says firmly and gives him a black look.
MacEnzie looks at her surprised, but doesn’t dare to add anything else and goes out. His colleagues were waiting for him.
-And…? What did she want? Scott asks with a smile. A passionate kiss? A sensual embrace?
-Did 당신 calm her with your irresistible charm? Laurence adds mockingly.
-Shut up! MacEnzie replies and fails to contain his anger.
-Oh oh! The beauty seems to have the upper hand over the beast, Scott replies ironically.
-It seems that our MacEnzie just received a slap in his face! Dr. Cuddy seems to have forgotten how sweet 당신 were last night, Laurence adds amused.
-I said shut up! MacEnzie replies.
-Maybe we can have a chance with her now that she dumped 당신 like a sock! Davis says with a smile.
-You’d better not, MacEnzie says coldly and gives Davis a threatening gaze.
-Hey, it’s a joke, Mac! Davis says. Calm down! Women are complicated, 당신 know. It’s her first 일 here, it’s not easy for her, she has to prove us she’s the boss...
-Yeah…, 당신 may be right, MacEnzie says after a while, his anger gone.
-Of course, I’m right! Davis adds. I’m sure she’ll apologize tonight when you’ll be alone with her, don’t worry…
-Yes…
-And it can be a good thing for you… if 당신 get what I mean…, Laurence says.
-Yes! MacEnzie replies with a smile, thinking of Cuddy.
-Don’t 당신 agree, Scott? Davis asks.
-Hm, yes, yes, certainly.
-Well, I have some work to do guys, see 당신 later, MacEnzie says and leaves his colleagues. He needs to think about a plan to get rid of House and to show Cuddy that she has to show him 더 많이 respect. And I know what I’m going to do… he thinks with a devilish smile.
-Hey Scott! Davis says.
-Yes?
-You seem to know something about MacEnzie and Dr. Cuddy…
-Hm… MacEnzie is a liar.
-What? exclaim Davis and Laurence. Tell us!
-Well… I met Dr. House a few 초 after Dr. Cuddy send us back to work…
-And?
-And MacEnzie hallucinated his night with Dr. Cuddy, she sedated him… and 당신 can forget her as a girlfriend…
-What did House tell you? asks Davis who fancies Cuddy.
-He told me that he and Dr. Cuddy are together and that if someone tries to ask her out, this someone will have problem with him… and I can assure 당신 that he wasn’t joking at all.
-Well, I knew that he and Dr. Cuddy were together but I thought it was over between them… Davis says disappointed. However, I don’t understand why a beautiful woman like Dr. Cuddy is with a man like House.
-He has a certain charm and he’s very charismatic, Scott replies. That’s what the nurses say, he adds seeing the faces of his colleagues who are amazed.
-Maybe, but he’s limping and I don’t find him very friendly, Davis replies.
- And he can be a real jerk, Scott adds.
-I’m not afraid of him, Davis says.
-Do 당신 think we should tell MacEnzie? Laurence asks.
-No, let him dream… and let us have fun, replies Davis with a wink.
Cuddy sits at her 책상, 데스크 and is 로스트 in her thought. Suddenly her door opens and House comes in.
-I see that 당신 still don’t know that 당신 have to knock at the door and wait for me to say “come in”, she says ironically.
-You know… the rules and I are not… good friends, he replies and smiles.
-What do 당신 want? she asks and gives him a tender glance.
-Nothing…
-Really? Each time 당신 storm in my office it’s either because 당신 want to practice a risky procedure on a patient, 또는 because 당신 want something … unusual for a hospital like a TV wide screen for your office… or…
-I just want to know how you’re doing, he replies, sits on her 책상, 데스크 close to her and gives her a tender gaze.
-I’m fine, I have a lot of work as 당신 can imagine but it’s ok.
-And MacEnzie? he asks and scrutinizes her face.
-What MacEnzie?
-I heard 당신 yell in the hall…
-Oh! Some of your colleagues were too loud for a hospital, nothing very important.
-Hmm… Do 당신 know what MacEnzie says everywhere in the hospital?
-No, she replies and tenses up a little.
-He tells everyone that he slept with 당신 last night…, House replies and looks at her straight in the eyes. He can see how her eyes darken with anger.
-What?! I can’t accept it! He’s going to hear from me! she says her voice filled with anger and stands up. House grabs her wrist and holds her.
-Cuddy, I … I need to know…, House says in a worried tone, and Cuddy can see jealousy and fear in his eyes.
-House! How can 당신 only imagine…, she replies amazed and upset.
-Cuddy, I need to know, I trust 당신 but…, he repeats and tightens her wrist a little more.
-No, House, no, 당신 don’t trust me…, she says in a low voice and looks sadly at him, she feels so hurt.
-I do, Cuddy, I swear I do, but I don’t trust MacEnzie and he could have drugged 당신 …, he adds torn up inside.
-I thought I could do this, I thought we could start again…because I 사랑 당신 and I know 당신 사랑 me… but I was wrong…, she adds and wipes some tears in her eyes.
-Cuddy… House says, lets her wrist and gives her an intense, but painful gaze.
-House, she says and looks at him straight in the eyes, I sedated MacEnzie and nothing happened between he and I, I don’t like him, he’s one of my employees and that’s all, and I’m going to clarify the situation right now, she says firmly, gives him a painful glance and leaves her office. House remains on her desk, unable to 옮기기 또는 to say something. He saw the pain in her eyes, he knows he hurt her, he knows he shouldn’t have asked her but… but he can’t help it.
What type of man does Cuddy really like?
