Office Hours

[jquayle.livejournal.com]

After his class, Justin is shuffling about in his office, he's got a handfull of tissues as his nose is still running. He feels a bit down in the dumps at the moment but he is more than welcome to any guests, especially ones bringing treats of some sort.

"Yeah, it does." He thought of Vogler, though the situation was completely different. Vogler, who didn't care about patients so much as profit. Vogler who got a taste of his own medicine when he tried to oust House from the hospital and found out House was a lot harder to get rid of than he ever thought.

Clearing his throat, it hurt a bit and he winced, "So, how have you been? I haven't seen you in a while." he had started to miss him, very much so.

"I've been around. Dr Wilson's been sick, I spent some time in town with him. Mostly I've been working my clinic hours or reading. I've been sitting in on Professor Chaucers lit classes. Sometihng of a refresher for me, I guess. I've gotten away from reading so much, and I'm tying to get back to it."

"That sounds very nice. My classes have been moving slowly, earlier in the week I just couldn't teach at all so I gave them a short story to write." he sighs, "What are you up to this weekend?"

"I have to write a sonnet for the poetry class, but I imgine I can do that while I'm on the clock in the clinic." House scratched his chin. "In other words, I have no concrete plans."

Justin sneezes into a tissue, "Excuse me. Sorry." he apologizes lightly, "A sonnet? Is my dear Greg turning into a poet?" a small gleeful smile, he wouldn't mind recieving a poem.

"Chaucer is teaching me, yeah." He grinned a little grin. "I'm fascinated by words, you know. And how words can be manipulated to evoke a feeling. If I wasn't a doctor, I'd likely have been a musician."

It's possible, but shush. You don't need to over think these things. *g*

"How riveting. I'm sure you'd make such a lovely musician. If you ever get the chance, I wouldn't mind a poem myself." and he wouldn't mind have an feelings envoked either. Rawr.

"You never know, do you?" House gave him a lusty-eyed sort of look.

[jquayle.livejournal.com]

Oh God, how that lusty-eyed look was returned rather seamlessly. Justin found himself blushing quite brightly before stuttering to speak, "I've planted some new seedlings in my garden.." he gulps, finding himself really lost in Greg's blue eyes...

[gotcanewillpoke.livejournal.com]

"Have you? I'll have to come by and see them. I'd think it would be too early yet, for planting." House licked his bottom lip rather impulsively.

[jquayle.livejournal.com]

"It's never too early." he answered, a cold sweat coming out over his brow as he watched Greg lick his lower lip, he instictively licked his own.

"See, i have so much to learn about plants and gardening." House smiled. If his leg wasn't aching, he'd suggest they make the hike to Justin's place right thenand there. But he knew he wouldn't make it. or he'd make it, but it would hurt his leg quite a bit.

"That's why you have me. I can teach you anything." a small smile, he felt a rather lusty nature come over him but he didn't want to be too forward.

[gotcanewillpoke.livejournal.com]

"My dear, I'm sure there are things I can teach you as well." House answered, almost challenging.

[jquayle.livejournal.com]

Justin felt himself leaning forward, "Is that so? Dear doctor, what will you teach me?"

[gotcanewillpoke.livejournal.com]

"That, my friend," House tapped his cane on the floor, "depends on what you wish to learn. For example, I could teach you how to assist a cripple in walking back to his apartment." He arched a brow, clearly indicating there was much more behind the suggestion than a simple walk across campus, no matter how complicated it would be.

"What a jolly good suggestion. I'd love to assist the amazing Doctor to his apartment." Justin stood and held out his hand.

[gotcanewillpoke.livejournal.com]

House held his gaze as he pulled himself up, holding the hand with his left and his cane with the right. Once on ihs feet, he did a little hop to get his weight off the right as much as possible.

"Leg's giving me fits today. I had a crisis in the clinic last night, it's fine now, but I didn't use my cane and the leg tends to make me pay for that later. You should stay a little to my right, but walk normally."

He really should have gotten his crutches out, and he knew it. He just hated those things, and the weakness they represented.
