By the time Wilson got to the reception it was all but over. He waved a goodbye to Chase and Cameron with the rest of their guests and then turned back to the bar to grab himself a quick drink. Cuddy was there, holding Rachel and she came straight over to him. She took one look at him and the tears she had been supressing all day began to fall. Patiently he drew her up against him and held on tight.

"Shhh.. it will be okay Lisa, he’ll be fine, he’s getting the help he needs now."

"I know, its just so..."

"Yes, I know." He pulled back and brought out his handkerchief to wipe her tears away. "Come on, I’ll come back to your place with you and we’ll have a cup of coffee and I’ll tell you about it."

She nodded gratefully and within half an hour they were at her place and Wilson was brewing coffee and rustling them both up a snack while she settled Rachel down for the night.

When they sat down together she smiled at him.

"Thank you Wilson, you’re so thoughtful."

He smiled at her and patted her hand gently.

"Anything you need Lisa, I’m here for you."

She rested her head against his shoulder and closed her eyes, exhausted. Wilson smiled to himself, stroking her hair. With House away maybe this was the perfect opportunity to get a bit closer to Lisa

After all, she seemed like she needed someone.
