Snow Pov:

I wake up in a hospital bed. I have bandages on my head and arms from where the glass cut me. A man in scrubs comes over to my bedside.

"Hi Mrs. Nolan, I'm Tony, I'm a nurse here. You were in an accident but you're okay."

"have you seen my husband" I ask nervously

"Yes actually I have that's why I'm here. He identified you but he is sick. We did some tests on him but now he's awake and asking for you. You can follow me"

I get up and follow the nurse, he leads me upstairs to a hospital room where I see David lying on the bed. I rush over to his side and peck his lips. He grasps my hand tight

"David!"

"Mary Margret, I'm so glad you're okay"

"Why are you in this room?"

"I have an infection or something. I didn't really understand what the doctor said" he says with a cough

"Will you be okay?"

"I don't know yet. Have you found Emma or Henry or everyone else"

"No I just woke up and they brought me here"

"Are you okay"

"Yes just some minor whiplash and scrapes"

I sit on his bed and stroke his hair as he falls asleep. He is really burning up, his face is flushed and he has the chills. 20 minutes pass by and a doctor with a cane walks in.

"Are you the wife" he asks seemingly uninterested as he leans against the doorframe

"Yes? Who are you"

"I'm Dr. House, your husbands doctor"

"Can you tell me how he's doing"

"Well no I can't"

"What?"

"I don't know what's wrong with him. I lost a bet so here I am taking a damn family history"

"Okay well I'd like a doctor who cares about my husbands well being"

"I care.......that I figure out what's wrong with him"

Emma Pov:

I describe the people I'm looking for to doctor Cuddy. She says that there are three unidentified males in surgery and one teenager. I tell her that the teenager is Henry Mills. She doesn't have any updates on his condition. I describe Killian and there was only one male with black hair and blue eyes so she knew it was him. Again there is no update on his condition. So I ask if there is a David and Mary Margret Nolan here in the ER. She tells me that David Nolan is upstairs in his own hospital room because he has a serious infection. I tell Regina where I'm going and head upstairs to find my parents. I take the familiar elevator ride and walk down the hallways just like I used to do everyday. I arrive at room number 108 and see Dr. House talking to my parents, why would he be visiting a patient? I walk into the room

"House" I say somewhat confidently

He turns around and looks at me a bit shocked

"Cameron? What are you doing here"

"I was in a car accident along with my.....brother. He's laying in the bed right there"

"You never mentioned having a brother before, especially the fact that he has a different last name"

"Well maybe you don't know everything about me after all"

"Well I'm just trying to get a family history"

"Since when do you actually talk to the patients"

"I lost a bet with my team"

"That's unlike you to loose a bet"

"I blame it on Cuddy"

"So can you tell me what's wrong with him"

"He has an fever of 103 after a car accident, the ER doc said he was fine when they brought him in. The blood work showed no infection"

"Well then how does he have a fever"

"That's why it's me working on this case, also Cuddy made me"

"Well just let me know what your theories are"

"I have an idea you can just come back to my office and be the talking family history"

"House, I don't work for you anymore"

"Well if you want an accurate family history to save your brother you have to come with me"

He gets up and leaves the room. Damn now I have to follow him. But first I take a couple minutes to explain to my mom while my dad is asleep.

"Emma! You know him? And your name is Cameron? This doesn't make any sense!" My mom says scared

"Look it's a long story that I don't really have time for right now. I was a doctor a long time ago and I worked for that ass of a doctor. I promise I will explain later"

"You were a doctor!"

"Yes, we can talk about this later because I have to go. They need an accurate family history to diagnose dad."

"So he's your brother?"

"Yes sorry that's just the first thing I could come up with"

"Okay just go figure out what's wrong with him"

I leave the room and get back on the elevator. I go up one more floor and walk down the hallway. I see the lab where I used to work, I see Wilsons office at the end of the hallway. I approach House's office and walk inside.
