Grabbing His Cane

Title: Oh, Tannenbaum
Author: Housepiglet
Spoilers/Warnings: No spoilers. Set in an altogether happier and AU place. A mild and tiny bit of House/Wilson slash :)
Characters: Mainly House & Wilson, but a quick flash of Cuddy and a baby!
Words: Approximately 2,000
Summary: Christmas fluff :) Wilson chooses a Christmas tree, House decorates it and Cuddy brings a baby to Christmas dinner. So extremely fluffy, in fact, that I've developed a cough just from writing it! A dash of crack at the end.
Notes: Many thanks to angus_honey for reading it through for me, making helpful suggestions and locating The Mandatory Missing Word. It was a little sneaky of me to ask, since this is her Christmas present, and her reward for reading my angsty s!W stuff when she really doesn't like angst ♥ Cuddy with baby is for hihoplastic ♥ And thanks to blackmare_9 for supplying the names of places in which Wilsie's parents might plausibly be living ♥

“They’re over there against the wall. Frasers on the left, Douglas in the middle and Balsams on the right. Call me when you’re ready, and I’ll come over and wrap it for you.” The young man waved an arm towards what remained of the Christmas trees, and tucked his chin down into his collar as he turned and made his way back towards the barn.

“Thanks,” said Wilson, jamming his hands deeper into his pockets and starting to pick his way carefully across the snow-covered grass.

Four o’clock on Christmas Eve was a little late to be collecting a tree. Normally Wilson had one chosen and decorated at least a couple of days in advance, but Christmas chaos had started early at the hospital this year. Between juggling his normal caseload, and squeezing in extra Clinic hours to help out with the annual pre-Christmas flu epidemic, Wilson hadn’t left his office before 8 o’clock all week, and it had been almost two before he’d been able to get away that afternoon.

To my LJ for the rest...

I posted an earlier version of this a while ago, but I got some enormously helpful concrit and decided to re-write it. I'm very glad I did, as I'm much happier with it now. Major kudos to those who help out with betas, concrit and encouragement around here :) You're worth your weight in gold! *huggles*

If you read it, I hope you enjoy :)  As ever, comments and concrit both very happily and gratefully received.


(The crunch of heavy wheels on gravel built rapidly to a crescendo and just as suddenly died...)

This way to the fake cut.

"Wilson?" House closed the door behind him and stared across his living room.

If you read it, I hope that you'll enjoy it! Comments and concrit very gratefully and happily received.

The alarm sounded, and Wilson opened his eyes. He’d been barely asleep, and he reached for the clock, now, and set it onto ‘snooze’. Pausing briefly, he realised he felt no less exhausted than he had the night before, and he heaved himself up against the headboard and lay back for a few moments, surveying the room.
