Note: Written for
barefootpuddles' Literary Drabble Challenge, a camp
sick_wilson activity.
Prompt/Summary: You can tell how fragile a boy is by how ferociously he fights over autonomy (from "Raising Cain: Protecting the Emotional Lives of Boys")
Rating: general (I am so proud of myself). ETA Possibly PG for mention of drinking and driving (thank you barefootpuddles!)
Word Count: 100.

“Good morning.”
“How did you find me?”
“I googled your name. The accident made it into the local news.”
”The sooner you finish your lecture about drinking and driving, the sooner you can go back to Princeton. I don’t need you here.”
That was a blatant lie: he would be discharged soon and couldn't afford a nurse. Nevertheless, Wilson nodded, and House finally noticed the deep lines pain and worry had etched on his face.
“I’m here because I need you.”
