Summary: Post 7x22, Wilson is staying with House to help him gradually reduce Vicodin. AU, possibly crack, mild spoilers for S7.
Rating: adult for implied sex.
Note: I took prompts #3 (speed, tent, soft) from yarroway’s Drabble Challenge for Camp sick_wilson.

Wilson’s heart rate had gone up, worse than on amphetamines. He hoped House would brake until the crash - then fell, pain shooting through his right arm.

“Wake up! Now!”

“House, what happened?”

“You tell me. I wasn’t the one shouting.”

“Sorry. Did I wake you up?”

“Unfortunately no, my leg was keeping me awake.”

Wilson checked the time: still twenty minutes to the next Vicodin. House’s hands were clenched on his bandaged thigh, but Wilson’s attention focused on the misshapen boxers.

“Maybe I can help you relax?”

When House swallowed his pill forty minutes later, his underwear looked comfortable again.

Now I bet if Wilson started prescribing *that* as a method of pain relief he'd have a lot of new patients:)

He could drop oncology and switch to pain management. However, the healthcare companies may have billing trouble.

Thank you for reading and commenting!

Teehee. Wish Wilson would help House relax like that on the actual screen...

[damigella-314.livejournal.com]

It might be a bit hard on the rating :).
Thanks for laughing!

I love fics where it was all only a dream, or in some other way unreal.

Endogenous opiates are some of the strongest stuff around, and would definitely help in pain management. :)

[damigella-314.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the technical support, and for the particularly provocative prompt ;).

[yarroway.livejournal.com]

You're welcome. :)

[pgrabia.livejournal.com]

I'll take that brand of medicine, please!

Lol, that was great! So glad Wilson was concerned about the comfort of House's boxers!

[damigella-314.livejournal.com]

When you read the prompt "tent" you thought of camping - all I could think of were House's boxers :).

Glad you liked it, I'm trying to write happier fics.

[pgrabia.livejournal.com]

Oh, I thought about House's boxers but I had difficulty making it work with the other prompts for some reason.

[damigella-314.livejournal.com]

I think it was the combination of "tent" and "soft" that did it for me. But what you and Brindlewolf did (using all the prompts in connected drabbles) is much better.

[pgrabia.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

*snort* Wilson is always willing to lend a hand! *hides from her own bad pun*

[damigella-314.livejournal.com]

LOL. You don't need to hide from puns, and thanks for reading and snorting ;).

[brindlewolf.livejournal.com]

I love it! You used the prompts without using the WORDS! LOL <3

[damigella-314.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I thought hiding the words was fun. Especially tent and soft :).

[julefontane.livejournal.com]

Wilson is so generous and clever! ;)

[damigella-314.livejournal.com]

A good doctor, if in this occasion not altogether selfless. I'm not even sure, to quote selkie3's pun, that he just lent a hand instead of other body parts ;-).

Thank you! [And how about writing a little drabble yourself, on any topic, to celebrate if the US wins the world cup? - I'm the most annoying person ever, I know.]

[julefontane.livejournal.com]

LOL you have the best ways to try and convince me to write stuff! - O.K., I WILL write a little drabble if the girls win! - Maybe House and Wilson watch the World Cup together! I think House would hit on Hope Solo... ;)

[damigella-314.livejournal.com]

House would hit on Hope Solo, and Wilson would be hit on by the non-lesbians of the team ;).

Now I have to support the US, LOL.

[julefontane.livejournal.com]

Yay! But maybe I'll just write something, no matter who wins, and make it a 'choose your own adventure'-like story with two outcomes! So you can continue to root for Japan!
I can't help but think of Hope as Han Solo - the boyfriend keeps calling her that; he's a Star Wars boy...

[damigella-314.livejournal.com]

That's great news! And I'm happy I'm not the only one to think of Han Solo - I thought it was yet more evidence of my advanced age :).

MROWW!!! I love it :D

[damigella-314.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it.
