Lucas thoughts about the finale

May 2010

"Give another one" Lucas zei to the bartender.

"okay" The man served him another shot "But u better slow down. u don't want to end up passing out"

"That's pretty much my plan" the P.I. ansewered "I'm not an alcoholic of anything like that, but tonight I just want to forget this last year"

"A woman?" the bartender asked.

"Yep" Lucas took a sip and then sighed

"That bad eh?"

A couple started to fight. Interrupting the conversation
"You don't undertand!" yell the young woman.
"The hell I do!"
"Hey! Keep it quite over there of get out" The bartender warned them. Then he nodded at Lucas so he...

Chapter 04: Party

- This is not what it looks like – Lucas zei – I needed a datum for the wedding so I invited her, and we were just talking. She has her own room –
The woman looked at Cuddy – Okay –
- Hi – Cuddy approached the woman – Dr. Lisa Cuddy, nice to meet u –
- I’m Jessica Jones –
They shook hands.
- I was about to introduce u – Lucas zei – Jess is my girlfriend –
- I got that – Cuddy told him – I’ll go back to my room now, goodnight –
Cuddy walked to her room and closed her door. She put her hand on her forehead Of course he has a girlfriend

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 volgende 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 meer 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 u had I would broke up with u 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 meer stable with their relationship, which is weird considering that she is 6 months pregnant.
- So when are u 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 bed – I can still do my job – Lucas gazes at her, admires...

- How are u 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 vraag –
The girl is sitting on an oranje 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 u forget to pay her? –
- I was investigating a case – Lucas says.
- Sure, u 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 u 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 keuken-, keuken –
____________________________
After a few minutes, Lucas goes to the kitchen.
- Coffee? – Cuddy offers
- No, thanks – Lucas antwoorden – I have to go…I have a job in Pennsylvania –
- Really? –
- I’ll be back door tomorrow...

Two weeks later, Cuddy feels so much better, emotionally that is. Physical, she is exhausted.
- u could nap in here– her assistant tell her – I won't tell anyone –
- No, the dag is almost over –
Cuddy is sitting on the little divan, bank 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 u 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 u 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 u stop kissing 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 u okay? – She zei – Did they let u go? –

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

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

- Cool. Thanks, door 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 u going back home? –

- I don't want to leave u 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 door me – the homicide detective says – Besides, we got the guy under custody –
Kelly is sobbing quietly...
