house x doctor!reader (you're also together 😛😋- around season 2!)
knocking on greg's office door, you sip your coffee, just praying you can go home soon.
this patient's case is so incredibly hard to crack and yet- all five of you- cameron, chase, foreman, house, and yourself, don't even know what this could be.
therefore, you've been at the hospital all since 9 this morning, from when cuddy had called you about rhis one of a kind symptom list.
your boyfriend, house, smirks as you sit on the chair across from the desk he's sat at.
"so tired." you murmured as he throws that red ball that he loves to play catch with, right at your face.
flinching at the sudden hit, you look at him, annoyed and unimpressed. "oops. must've hit ya." house grins as he says that.
"must've." you groan, an ache above your left eyebrow.
"yeah. you look like shit. when's the last time you've slept?" he asks, his gruff bastard act turning into genuine concern. only for you.
you take a moment to think about it, even if your brain is currently at 5 speed. "this morning, when i woke up in your bed."
he nods, sitting up slightly as he knows it's 12:30 in the morning, already incredibly late to be working, but this case was too hard to crack.
"i don't like that. go home. my home. you're more comfortable there than at your shitty place, anyways." greg directs as you shake your head.
"i cant! we need to know what's wrong and the diagnosis is too-" he cuts off your complaining, and you sigh.
beginning to stand, you find yourself agreeing with his orders. "should i wait up?" he shakes his head, "absolutely not. get some sleep, okay? i'll be there soon."
nodding, you walk out of his office.
greg comes home around 1:30, and hour after you had eventually left. he sees you awake, barely, sprawled out on his bed.
he begins to slip off his blazer and shirt, staring right at you, comfortable in his bed and in his clothes. "late night, huh?"
