Chapter Text
Foreman was about to attempt to try to raid House's office once more, this time however, when he entered the room the older man was sleeping in it. When he caught sight of the snoozing man Foreman turned to leave, but then an idea struck him. Walking as softly as he could, he made his way over to House. Picking up a pen from the man's desk, he inched closer to him. Sticking the pen lightly under the doctor's shirt collar, Foreman fished around with it- using all of his surgical experience to not wake his boss- finally pulling it out with a ring hooked around it. Holding his breath to suppress a gasp, Foreman eyed House to see if he was still asleep. Leaning closer, he managed to make out an inscription on the inside of the wedding ring.
Loving you always. -J
Foreman was startled by a grunt as House shifted in his chair. Placing the ring back under his shirt, Foreman hurried out of the office, heading off to find Chase and Cameron.
Later, when the ducklings were convened in their work room, Foreman told them his discovery in a hushed voice.
"J?" Chase questioned.
"When he was on the phone last week he said he called them J when I asked about it." Cameron recalled.
"Do we know anyone with J as their initial?" Foreman asked. As if the universe was answering their question they heard a shout from the hallway.
"Jimmy!"
The three of their heads snapped to look out into the hall, and they were met with the sight of House walking to catch up with a stopped Wilson, the later with an eyebrow raised in question.
"What is it House?" Wilson replied exasperatedly.
The ducklings looked at one another, disbelief filling their eyes and expressions.
"No. It couldn't be him." Foreman denied.
"You think maybe?" Chase puzzled.
"No. Definitely not." Cameron said.
"Then who could it be?" Chase asked.
"I don't know, but I think the next step is to break into his house." Foreman reasoned.
"When can we do that?" Chase questioned.
"Tomorrow two of us can go in the morning." Foreman responded. "I think it should be me and Chase, no offense Cameron but if you do like him then that would be even more creepy then what we're already doing."
"Alright." Cameron agreed, though she looked a bit disappointed.
The next day Chase and Foreman made their way to their boss's apartment, Chase having stolen House's keys from his office earlier. As they unlocked the door and stepped inside, they were surprised to see how neat it was.
"Let's find his bedroom, that's probably where the most evidence is." Chase reasoned.
They made their way down the hallway, opening doors as they went. Finally the last door they tried revealed a king sized bed, two bedside tables and some sets of drawers. As they entered the room they each split off to search in different areas, Chase going to the closet and Foreman going to the bedside tables.
As Foreman knelt down and opened the drawer he was grossed out to see yet another box of extra-large condoms and a bottle of lube next to the two books in it.
"Jesus, why do I always have to find this stuff!" He exclaimed. Moving to the other side of the bed he checked that drawer too, only to find a box of large condoms and some pill containers full of Vicodin. realization began to dawn on Foreman just as Chase called out.
"There are only male clothes in here." And as Chase turned around a picture on the wall caught his attention. It was a wedding photo of Wilson and House in tuxedos with their arms wrapped around each other, broad grins across their faces. "Oh shit. It really was Wilson."
"And I know what size condoms they use..." Foreman said, completely disgusted. "Uh, that image is burned into my mind now."
"I can't believe he's gay. Damn. And with Wilson, though now that I think about it, it does sort of make sense." Chase thought out loud.
"They do make a nice couple, if a bit destructive." Foreman agreed.
"Wait until Cameron finds out." Chase said, trying to suppress a chuckle.
