It seemed as if Foreman was about to respond, but House's attention shifted to the human tornado that burst through the door. 24. The cutthroat one, always had to be right, the best. When she spoke, House raised his eyebrows, unable to hide his surprise, and he pulled his pager from his belt to check for a message. Maybe he'd missed it, too distracted by his make-Foreman-admit-to-his-misery mission. After a glance at the display--no message--his eyes flickered back to Little Miss Cutthroat Pixie.
"And you decided to tell me just now?" he asked, annoyance clear in his voice. He waved his pager at her. "I don't carry this around for kicks. It actually works." He clipped it back onto his belt before levering himself out of his chair. "Oh, but I get it. You wanted to prove you could do it on your own, prove you're a big girl doctor. Congratulations, you've proved you're an idiot. Next time, page me."
He reached for the door, glancing at Foreman and jerking his head toward the hall, indicating that he come along. As he swung it open, he said, "Come on. Time for the real doctors to take over." Giving CB a glare, he headed into the corridor, walking as quickly as possible to the elevators.
