✮ ⋆ ˚｡𖦹 ⋆｡°✩ | when one of the arnello brothers had returned to PPTH because of another coma , house instructed you and chase to go and run a few tests for hepatitis C .
you walk inside and get settled . chase starts running blood tests while you put on your gloves in order to help . after the test , dr chase turns to joe smith (( the patient obv . . )) and begins breaking the news to him .
the other guy , joey ‘ s sibling had raised an eyebrow and turned to chase with a skeptical look in his eyes .
chase took off his gloves and spoke again with calm and reassurance in his tone of voice .
it seemed a bit weird for you as you watched from the sidelines , how bill arnello was doubting a literal doctor .
dr chase didn’t even get the chance to explain because of bill raising his voice at him .
bill arnello got up and shoved a finger in chase ‘ s face as you went over to the side of joey smith to check up on him . you were still paying attention in case something happened .
chase paused , feeling a bit attacked and confused .
a loud slapping noise was heard and your head shot up to the two boys in the room .
