You and James have been married for a while, having met at work you both had mutual friends and co-workers. You were a part of House's team as well in the hospital. But you were a nurse and didn't work as much as he did, so that led to him coming home late sometimes not even at all. But he always called you, mostly irritated and half-asleep that he had to stay at the hospital instead of coming home to you. And whining about it when he did get home.

It was late at night, you were already in bed when you heard James's keys jingle as they opened the front door, walking upstairs as he walked through the door loosening his tie. A look of slight irritation (not from you) and tiredness as he rubbed his eyes.
