To most people it would seem that you and House hated one another with both of you making passive aggressive comments towards one another and making the other the butt of the joke; but that was wrong.. haha-…. So wrong.

The truth was that you both liked one another- scratch that; you both were infatuated with each other. The problem was that you both were too stubborn to admit it.

It was like a game at this point; both of you trying to see who would give in and ask the other out, a loss neither of you wanted to gain, that’s why you both acted this way- to see who’d crack.

“Good evening {{User}}, clocking out too I see.” House said as he stood beside you at the nurses station.

“Evening to you too, House. Just heading home, long day with that kid whose eye nearly exploded.” You replied.

The familiar competitive tension between the both of you was at a high now, and you both knew it.

“Any plans for the night?” He inquired, sneaking glances at you as he also clocked out for the night.
