Title: Evening/Velvet/Tingle
Fandom: House
Characters: Stacy/Cuddy
Prompt: 13 - Yellow
Word Count: 119
Rating: G
Summary: She loves them.
Author's Notes: Bit bored, thought I’d do a few.



Stacy loved evening primroses. She loved the soft, delicate petals and the contrast against the stem. The dip, the way the colour faded outwards. The way the flower opened so briefly, as though allowing its secrets to be shown for only a second.

On her wedding day, she wanted to carry a bouquet of them, but her mother clucked her tongue and Stacy ended up holding a bunch of pink roses. She liked them but felt they were lacking something.

So when she finds a single evening primrose on her desk the day she starts work at the hospital, with a card with a simple ‘L’, Stacy can’t help but smile and grab a glass as a makeshift vase.

Summary: Determination is the key to success.



Lisa was wearing green the first time they met. She only remembers it because she wanted to reach out grab a handful of her skirt and feel the deep velvet under her fingers. In the end, Stacy only managed to feel it when Richard, her boyfriend at the time, stumbled, slightly tipsy, knocking Stacy over into the then thirty-three year old Lisa at the party. Stacy had reached out and grabbed Lisa’s shoulder, feeling that material under her hand.

She never saw that dress again (most likely because later that evening a glass of red wind had been knocked over into Lisa’s lap, ruining the dress possibly forever), but after Lisa invites her over for dinner one evening, Stacy peeks into Lisa’s bedroom after going to the bathroom and finds a velvet jacket hanging over the foot of her bed.

It’s then she’s determined to see Lisa in it.

Summary: It's just a meeting between friends.



It wasn’t really a date. It wasn’t really anything, actually. It could just be considered as friends having a lunch and catching up over things they’ve missed. Anyway, Stacy’s married and Lisa hasn’t been seriously considering anyone to date for a long time.

So they have their coffee and Lisa orders a sandwich and Stacy mulls over her scones. And they talk about the weather and the news and what’s been on the TV. And it’s not until a family with a screaming baby enter the cafe does Lisa ask if Stacy wants to leave.

Neither asked if they wanted to return to Lisa’s. Mark had been in a terrible mood- Lisa knew, Stacy told her- and it just seemed like an unspoken agreement.

Her house is quiet, so Lisa turns on the radio. Stacy meanders into the living room, plopping her bag down as she sits, grabbing a magazine. Lisa returns with a coffee, handing it over as she eases down next to her. Their arms brush, hips touching, and even though nothing happens, Stacy can feel her lips tingle.
