Lucas opens the door of his apartment.
- Hi – He smiles to Lisa and lets her in – Were we supposed to meet today? –
- No – Cuddy sits on the couch.
- Something wrong? –
Lucas sits seguinte to Cuddy.
- He is under custody, and his hearing its Thursday – she tells Lucas. The P.I. realizes she is talking about House. – They don’t need me there, right? –
- The police took your statement, there are mais witnesses –
- He is going to jail –
- The charge is malicious destruction of property so depending of the amount of damage; he’ll be in jail a…while –
Cuddy sighs – This is so…argh….I...

- I never had sex with a pregnant woman before –
- Good! If you had I would broke up with you right now –
Begging of February, and Cuddy and Lucas find out the sex still is fun.
After Rachel birthday in December and Cuddy birthday in January they feel mais stable with their relationship, which is weird considering that she is 6 months pregnant.
- So when are you gonna stop going to work? – Lucas asks Lisa – I don't think pregnant women are supposed to be in hospitals –
- Not yet – Cuddy says as she slowly gets up from the cama – I can still do my job – Lucas gazes at her, admires...

- How are you feeling? –
- I don't longer cry myself to sleep thinking about my dead boyfriend –
Lucas is visiting Kelly at her mother's house.
- Okay, dumb pergunta –
The girl is sitting on an laranja coach, the P.I. on a chair.
– Thanks for bringing me my things – Kelly says. – What happened to your eye? –
Lucas has a black eye.
- A prostitute hit me – he responds.
- Did you forget to pay her? –
- I was investigating a case – Lucas says.
- Sure, you were –
- Talking about investigating, I can help find out who was behind it, ask some questions… –
- Don't – Kelly interrupts...

Lucas wakes up, for a second, he forgets where he is.
- Good morning – Cuddy walks in from the other room. Lucas smiles when he sees her. She is already dress up for work.
- Hi – Lucas sits down, looks to the alarm clock. Its 7 am
- Do you want to take a shower? –
- No, I’m fine. I’ll just dress –
Cuddy walks to him and gives him a kiss. – I’ll be in the cozinha –

After a few minutes, Lucas goes to the kitchen.
- Coffee? – Cuddy offers
- No, thanks – Lucas respostas – I have to go…I have a job in Pennsylvania –
- Really? –
- I’ll be back por tomorrow...

Two weeks later, Cuddy feels so much better, emotionally that is. Physical, she is exhausted.
- You could nap in here– her assistant tell her – I won't tell anyone –
- No, the dia is almost over –
Cuddy is sitting on the little sofá in her office. Moments like this, she misses her old office.
The phone rings. – I'll get it – Jonah says – It's Mr. Douglas –
- Hi –
- Hi Lisa, I got your message, I couldn't answer –
- It's okay…Are you busy tonight? –
- Well…I'm watching the game with Tony and Zach –
Cuddy wonders why men say "the game", like everybody knows what game is on....

"I'll be back before you know it"
That's what Lucas told Cuddy over a week ago. He took a case two months ago; in behalf of Rachel's teacher; Jenny. It turned into a much complicated and long case.
Lucas ended up in Virginia. Cuddy, now 8 months pregnant, was not happy about it.
Now he's back home. He's tired and he just wants to cuddle with Cuddy and to fall sleep.
At 3 in the morning, Lucas enters quietly into the house. He sees the light on.
- Lisa? –
Cuddy is sitting on the edge of the bed. Her hands clenching the bedspread, she's in pain. – Ufff – She groans – I need to go to the hospital...

Lucas is fooling around with Kelly in his apartment. After all, what is the point of having a pretty girl as your neighbor?
- Come here – the girl kisses him and pulls him to her. They fall on the couch.
The phone rings, but they both ignore it. The answering machine picks up.
Hi Lucas, it’s me, I guess you’re not home… Cuddy voice makes Lucas stop paying attention to Kelly.
- way…I want to talk to you, about what happened. Call me, please. Bye –
Lucas gets up from the sofa. – Why did she call me? –
- Why did you stop beijar me? – Kelly asks as she sits down. The private investigator...

Chapter 06: Bad liar

Now
- Hello – Cuddy answered her phone. She was on her way to the lobby.

- Hi Lisa! –

- Lucas are you okay? – She said – Did they let you go? –

- No, they are being stubborn and they don't like me – Lucas told her – Did you call my sister? –

- Yes. She said she'll sent a lawyer a soon as possible –

- Cool. Thanks, por the way you're my one call – he told her – That's pretty special –

- Okay, uh Lucas; I'm checking out of the hotel –

- Oh, I forgot its Sunday. Are you going back home? –

- I don't want to leave you here –

- I'm fine. I'll be out of here...

Chapter 05: Self-defense

- Please ma'am, stand back – one of the police men told her.
- Lucas, what’s going on? –
- Nothing, I’m just like their prime suspect of a murder –

10 hours before…
- Good night Lisa –
- Good night –
Cuddy closed the door. Lucas turned off the tv and sat in the dark and waited for couple of minutes.
His cell phone rang.
- What up Fowler? –
- He’s still in the party –
- Some nerve. Getting drunk on the party of the couple he is blackmailing –
- But why? – Fowler asked.
- His real name is Malcolm and he has history with...

Cuddy observes the scene around her. The police, the yellow tape, the noisy neighbors, and the forensic team. She remembers when House got shot, when House was a hostage, and of course when House drove his car through her window.
She also recalls when Amber died, because just like now, a young person died for no good reason.
- I think we had enough – Zach, being part of the district attorney office; helps with Kelly and Lucas statement. – We don't need to go downtown, detective –
- Fine por me – the homicide detective says – Besides, we got the guy under custody –
Kelly is sobbing quietly...

It turns out the premiere is in October (I only like write fanfiction during hiatus), so I won’t update as fast, lets take our time.
____________________________________
Cuddy likes the thrusting, the heat, and the sweat. She lets go everything and enjoys sex.
She finally moans, louder then normal, and collapses on the mattress.
- Happy birthday – Cuddy says with a big smile
Lucas tries to catch his breath – Best birthday present ever! –
It’s a lovely Saturday morning in September, and today is Lucas’ birthday.
- Does that mean that I don’t have to go to your party? – Lucas’ friend,...

- Reddy to go? – Lucas is on time to take Cuddy to see a play.
- Actually, no –
Cuddy takes Lucas por the arm and pulls him into the house.
- The nanny it’s late, and I’m in a conference call… –
- Okay, what can I do? –
- Can you watch Rachel for a minute? –
Lucas sees Rachel sitting on the living room, playing with some blocks.
- Uhm…I don’t think it’s a good idea. She's not familiar with me –
- Non sense – Cuddy pushes Lucas to the living room – Just 5 minutos –
Lucas sighs.
- Hi Rachel – He sits on the couch. Rachel looks at him.
- Hi – she responds.
- What are you...

It’s almost noon, and Lucas is just waking up. He spent all night at stake out. He gets up from cama and walks to his kitchen, when someone knocks at his door.
- Hi – it’s Lisa Cuddy – I hope you’re hungry, I brought you lunch –
She walks into the apartment.
- Ergh…Hi Lisa – he says with surprise – What are you doing here? –
- Lunch – Cuddy points the brown bag. She sits at the cozinha counter. Lucas sits in front of her.
- So you’re just here to feed me? – Asks Lucas –With lasagna apparently –
- I got a job, nice hospital, no management position just me being a doctor...

The seguinte morning Lucas thinks it was all a dream, and Cuddy never called him to “rescue her”. But an early call proves that it wasn’t a dream. Cuddy wants to see him at the hotel’s restaurant.

He dress up and leaves the apartment, on the hallway, Lucas encounters his neighbor, a woman in her 20’s named Kelly.
- Are you just getting home? – Lucas tells her
- I had an awful night – the girl grabs Lucas por the arm – I need you to console me –
- Sorry, I got work – the P.I. smiles, he likes the way Kelly teases him – Have some coffee, and you’ll be fine –
