Chapter 2: Pressure Has A Boiling Point
Hugh let Jennifer run ahead while he stood there and composed himself. Could it actually be true? Could she really feel the same way about him that he did for her? They both were intelligent enough to realize that the sexual chemistry their two characters had on screen was not entirely an act. Nothing could come off that natural and that strong and be just an “act”. Yet everyone around them continually told them how good they really acted out that “sexual tension”. If they only knew.
Practically from the day he met her, Hugh had been fighting the urge to take her in his arms and give her the loving she so desperately desired and deserved. But he stayed the faithful husband and never pursued her. Then last year Jesse and Jennifer became engaged. Jesse was a nice enough guy, but even Hugh could see there was no spark there….no surge of electricity that starts at the point of contact and works it’s way through your entire body at the slightest touch of the other. When a mere glance into the other’s eyes robs you of your breath and you stand there mesmerized by the fantasies enfolding in your mind. Both Hugh and Jenn had experienced these feelings both on and off stage: but only when they were in each other’s presence.
They knew it existed. They knew it was explosive. Yet they never acknowledged it. And they never acted on it.
But suddenly, Hugh was having second thoughts. He always thought Jenn was in love with Jesse and could never have feelings for an old ‘limee’ who was technically still married (although that was fading fast on the horizon as well). But seeing how depressed she had been lately and hearing her confession of there being problems in ‘paradise’, Hugh began to wonder. And when she all but admitted that the one person who could make her happy was already taken….Hugh knew she had to be talking about him. At least he hoped so. He would confront her tonight once and for all. They had been dancing around this for three years now. It was time to see if and where this was going to go.
Hugh lost count of how many nights he would lie awake at night and fantasize what it would be like to hold Jenn in his arms; to hear her scream out his name as she rode a wave of ecstasy. Just thinking about it now was making Hugh go hard.
And he could already hear them calling out his name for the resignation scene.
When he got to his “office” set, Jenn was already there, sitting in House’s chair. The make up crew had touched her up, but he could still tell she had been crying. Jenn picks up the envelope and gets ready for the scene. Katie yells, “Action!”
They get the first couple of lines off with no problem. House makes a comment about her having a bigger office, and then she hands him the envelope. He looks at her warily and says “these had better be naked pictures”. She tells him it’s her letter of resignation.
And suddenly it’s no longer House and Cameron standing up there. When it’s time for Cameron to walk around and stand close to House and run her hand down his arm, she is suppose to say “I’ll miss you,” while giving him that one and only “Hameron” look. But for some reason, Jenn gets choked up. As she runs her hand down Hugh’s arm, and that all too familiar bolt of electricity shoots through them both…..she just stands there transfixed; tears starting to well up in her eyes. Hugh is lost in her expression and the feel of her hand on his arm as well.
“Cut!” screams Katie. “What is the problem Jenn? It’s not like ‘I’ll miss you’ should be hard to remember…it’s only three words.”
“So’s Fuck off bitch!” cries Jennifer, and runs off to her trailer.
Standing behind her on set she leaves an entire crew completely flabbergasted at her display of disrespect; Except for one person. Hugh Laurie rolled his head back and is laughing the hardest he has ever laughed in his life. Katie couldn’t take anymore….she runs off the set. Now everyone else slowly starts joining in with Hugh laughing their asses off (now that it is safe).
Hugh finally stopped laughing and realized that Katie was probably already seeking out David to cry on his shoulder. He thought he better find him as well to put in a good word for Jenn. After all, HE did wield a little influence around this place.
The show IS called House.
