Day Four (Finale)
Cameron stroll the halls getting ready for her daily check up on Jennifer. She reaches their room, but notices the door is locked. The brunette stares around at all the blinds as she digs into her pockets for the keys. She figures they’re still asleep, so Cameron decides to walk in quietly and see if Jennifer is about to wake up or not. She unlocks the door and slowly slides it open. The doctor makes her way past the white blinds and looks into the room. She notices Eve’s bed is empty, only to discover a split second later the lump on Jennifer’s bed is bigger than normal. Then realizes Eve is snuggling in bed with her roommate. Cameron’s eyes widen and the brunette quietly takes a step back out of the room. She slowly closes the door behind her and locks it again. She walks off with a stunned look on her face.

In another part of the hospital, House has his elbow leaned against a counter, looking at a list on a clipboard. He spots Cameron walking up to him. “I assume you have something to tell me?”
“Yeah, um…” Cameron has trouble making eye contact. “I was going in for my daily inspection on Jennifer Jareau and she and Eve…” She begins to whisper, “Are sleeping together.”
“Together?” House raises an eyebrow. “As in the same bed together?” Cameron nods. “And you’re certain they had sex?”
“Their door was locked, their snuggling under the same blanket, and their underwear are dangling on the edge of the beds.” Cameron answers.
House gives Cameron a look, “Okay give me a minute. I really have to picture this one.” House closes his eyes and the image of Eve and Jennifer having wild sex while ripping off their clothes enters his head. “Ohh yeaahhh,” he says slowly.
“So what should I do?” Cameron asks.
House’s head snaps back down and he looks at Cameron. “Let the love birds sleep of course. Check back on them in an hour or two.”
Cameron nods to House’s suggestion and walks off.

It’s later in the day and Jennifer and Eve are in the main foyer, about to leave the hospital. Eve stands with her back against the wall. Her bags slung around her shoulder. She waits for Jennifer to finish her phone call. After some final words, Jennifer hangs up the phone.
Jennifer hands the phone back to the receptionist on the desk, “Here you go.”
Eve takes her back off the wall and walks up to Jennifer, “So what did they say?”
“I told the guys over at the BAU that I’ll need a week to fully heal,” Jennifer answers. “And they said yes. They’re allowing me to stay here an extra week before I go back.”
Eve hugs Jennifer, “That’s great news.” She pulls back to look her girlfriend in the face, “I’m sure Melissa would love to meet you.”
“Does she know about me?”
“Some parts. She knows you’re my roommate, but not my girlfriend.” Eve gives off that wicked grin, “I want to see the reaction on her face in person when I tell her.”
“Hey I’m just wondering did you decide what to do with the baby?”
“I decided I’ll follow your suggestion and put it up for adoption. There’s a lot of good people out there who can’t have a baby. I’m sure some of them can give it things I’ll never be able to.”
“I’m glad that’s your choice. By the way, we’ll be staying at your place for the week, but what about the long term? Do I move here to New Jersey or do you come over to Virginia?”
Eve thinks about it, “I’m sure we’ll be able to figure it out. Come on. Let’s get out of this place.”
“Elle will be arriving soon, so we should be stepping outside.”
“Do you still need any help to walk?”
“I’m not feeling much pain in my stomach, but I’ll still like it if you held onto me.”
Eve smiles and leans beside Jennifer. She puts one of her hands around the FBI agent’s waist and uses the other to hold onto Jennifer’s hand. The two women begin to move.
Cuddy and House watches as the silhouette of the two blondes walks out of the main entrance and through the first set of doors, about to enter the daylight sun. Cuddy turns her head to House and notices the facial expression on the typically disgruntle doctor.
“Is that a smile I see on your face House?” Cuddy asks.
There’s a pause between them, then House finally speaks up while still focusing on the two women. “Another happy ending thanks to girl on girl action.” He lets out a sigh, “This is how Romeo and Juliet must be like if it didn’t suck.”
*****
As Eve and Jennifer walk into the daylight sun, its light beams down on the two women, almost blinding. They stroll up to the sidewalk. Jennifer is able to spot Elle’s SVU pulling up. The brunette FBI agent steps out of the vehicle and onto the sidewalk.
“Well, well. You look great JJ. Hard to believe you were shot less than a week ago.”
“Thanks Elle.”
Elle looks at Eve, “So are we going to be dropping off your friend here along the way?”
“Eve Carter I want you to meet Elle Greenaway, my coworker. Elle meet Eve, my girlfriend.”
Elle looks at them and notices the way they’re holding each other’s hand. Right there Elle knew exactly what Jennifer meant by girlfriend. The brunette’s eyes widen as a sense of surprise fills her body. She never thought Jennifer was the type. Elle stood completely still as her eyes dart up and down, staring at the two women. Eve and Jennifer can’t help but crack up a bit by Elle’s drawn out reaction.
Finally Elle speaks up, “Nice to meet you Eve.” She holds out her hand as a welcoming gesture.
Eve lets go of Jennifer and takes a step closer to shake Elle’s hand, “Pleasure to meet you Elle.”
Jennifer’s pleased with what she’s seeing. The darkest hour is just before the dawn, and this is a dawn both Jennifer and Eve are looking forward to.
