Title: After the Fourth Wedding, part 1 of 4
Author: Dee Laundry
Pairing: House/Cameron
Rating: PG
Summary: Drabble (100 words exactly)


He tells her all the time how pretty she is.

It’s not a compliment.

It’s code. Code for not clever enough, not humorous enough, not interesting enough. She’s grown stronger over time, established herself away from his tutelage. They are peers.

But not equals.

Not even now, four months into this relationship – this relationship he pursued. She insisted on real dates, and real conversations, and wooing. He wooed.

Now, he tells her all the time how pretty she is, which is code for: You disappoint me. You’re not who I want. I can’t have my equal, so I’m having you.

Part Two

I almost skipped this. Glad I didn't.

I can’t have my equal, so I’m having you
