Wow guys, thanks for answering my pick last time! It really made me feel encouraged. I tried to push प्रशंसक fic लेखन to my sched, and guess what, I was able to do it. Seriously, I was about to give up but since आप asked, here it is:

Hugh slowly pulled the car in front of Lisa’s house after a fun-filled दिन with her and their daughter. True, the drive back घर was tiring since they passed द्वारा two traffics jams but that wouldn’t paired up with the laughter they shared that day. Lisa was about to have the same thought as Hugh’s and call it a दिन when she spotted Dan standing द्वारा their porch stairway with both hands landing his hips just like what Wilson in [H]ouse do. The look in his eyes, though far, made her gulped in silence before turning back to face Hugh as she landed her hand on his arm.
“I think it’ll be better for आप to take Bess for the night.” His eyes and mind wanted to ask why but the moment the woman beside him leaned closer to the car seat, the clear view of Dan answered his questioning thoughts before he looked at her again.
“I’m sorry. I really don’t want to put responsibility on आप but really, I –“ Lisa tried to explain but words became stammers before Hugh placed his finger on her lips.
“Shh, it’s okay,” he assured and looked back at the car सीट where Bessie was sleeping who had been knocked off since they got caught up on the first traffic jam. “I’ll take care of her.”
“Thanks,” she forced a smile when he looked back at her again, “I’ll get her first thing in the morning.”
“Just take your time and don’t worry, I’ll call आप up if ever she looks for you.” With that, Lisa nodded and thank you’s were exchanged before she finally opened the car door and made her way to the porch where a long night will begin.

The moment Hugh’s car vanish in the street’s horizon, Lisa stepped in the house without saying any word to Dan that just fuel the flame of his obvious anger. When the last shoe touched the honey wood flooring, he forcefully grabbed her arm that made the woman turned her head to face him.
“What the hell,” Lisa uttered with eyes burning up just like her blood’s.
“How could आप do this to us, Lisa?” Dan gritted the words between his teeth.
This?, she thought, what the hell is ‘this’?. She tried to yank her arm away from him but his grip weren’t loosening up, it was actually getting tighter. “You’re hurting me!” she yelled at him.
“Then what do आप call about the thing you’re doing to me?!” he spat back.
“I don’t know what you’re taking about, Dan! If आप have problems in the hospital, don’t take it up to me!” With that he finally let her arm go but let out his anger slip through his leg and ended up smashing an ottoman and a तालिका, टेबल together. She watched him went to the drawer and snatched three tabloids. All have her and Hugh’s चित्र when they met up during the दिन when Bess didn’t come along. The papers have different font styles and wordings but all have the same meanings, Hugh Laurie and Lisa Edelstein is having a sex-ond time around affair.
“Oh really?! आप don’t know about this?! This?! And This?!” he threw the three papers one द्वारा one and was careless with the last which unfortunately landed on Lisa’s cheek. When she looked up to meet his stares, Dan finally saw the mark the tabloid spine left on her rosy face but he was too mad to care.
“Now tell me आप don’t know what that is!”
“I couldn’t believe you,” Lisa faked a chuckle, “you were able to threw papers to me, snatched my arm like I was a toy आप owned and yelled at me over this?! A rumor?!”
She waited for him to spit something back, द्वारा word या द्वारा any means, but there was nothing only deafening silence between them. She shook her head before looking down as her mind could barely comprehend how shallow the topic of their fight was centered at.
“From now, yah, lets call it a rumor but things are certainly going to end up like that anyway,” Dan firmly said, “it’s just a head start for me, for Bess ---“
“Don’t आप dare put up my daughter’s name on this! She has nothing to do with your stupid insecurities damn it!”
“Of course she has!” Dan shouted rolling his eyes before doing so that made Lisa look sternly at him. “Because there’s no way she’ll go out of this house without my knowledge and so do you! And that man better savor this night because this will be his last chance to spend it with her!” with that he turned sideward and began walking towards the empty hallway, leaving Lisa nothing but teary eyes and slightly bruised face.

Dan didn’t know Lisa slipped away that later that night. It didn’t matter if the clock just struck one in the morning, she just wanted to get away from the house she thought she’s sharing with the man who’ll respect her. It might really been a bad दिन at the hospital but Dan’s outburst were just so brutal. So brutal that it didn’t only hurt her physically but emotionally and mentally as worst.
Half an घंटा later, Lisa gently closed Hugh’s bedroom door, careful not to wake their sleeping daughter inside. The moment she reached the end of the hallway, a cup full of चाय was placed on the center table, waiting to be drank.
“Thank आप for letting her sleep in,” she कहा when Hugh appeared from the रसोई, रसोईघर bringing in a box that seemed to be a first aid kit.
“That’s the third time आप कहा that word, Lise,” he replied with a smile while opening the box before him, “come here,” he added as he invited her to sit beside him. She complied after giving out a sigh.
“What are आप doing?” she asked, eyeing the cotton ball being held up द्वारा his fingers.
“I’m about to clean आप bruises, what does it look like?” he delivered, “now don’t move.” Once again, she did what she was told. She shivered the moment the cotton ball touched her once-pinkish cheek as he repeatedly but gently brush it over her face.
“You not really up to call Women’s Right या call it quits with him?” he asked after a brief pause while still working on her minor injuries.
“This is the first time this happens, Hugh. Maybe he’s just really tired from work.”
“Yah, let’s call this first and I don’t doubt there’ll be second, third and so on,” he looked away as he grabbed another iced-soaked cotton ball, “who knows how many nights will he come घर tired and pissed at his patients and obviously, you’ll be the one who’ll be his ‘tac-siapo’ wall.”
“Hugh,” Lisa calmly warned as she held his hand before the सेकंड cotton ball land her face again.
“I’m sorry,” he took a quick glance at her before eyeing the carpet below them, “I overstepped.” She nodded signaling her acceptance of his apology.
“I’m just glad Bess wasn’t there,” Lisa said, “god forbid what might happen if आप didn’t take her early this evening.”
Hugh returned a smile before saying, “so, my plan to have joint custody with आप with my daughter is pretty much on hold.”
“Why would it be?”
“We all know such cases need doctor’s authorization that indeed I am Bessie’s father and...”
“Then we’ll find another one,” Lisa cut him off the moment it dawned on her that it was Dan who took her daughter and Hugh’s paternity test before the two fled to लंडन weeks ago. After all, he was a doctor and Bessie’s pedia to add more. His signature validates whatever Hugh’s claims will be. “And whatever it is that is running in your head right now, knock it off, you’re Bessie’s father and आप have every right to decide what is the best for her,” she added when his silence still screams doubts. He smiled in return before they let themselves sunk in another phase of awkward silence.
“There’s no reason for आप to think that she’ll be a burden if she stays for another week with me,” Hugh got Lisa’s attention after her constant head turn towards the bedroom. This man beside her just knows her enough to know the things she doesn’t even want to inform herself.
She stammered but thank him anyway, “Are आप serious? Because I could,” her own sight cut her off when she noticed the man’s blue eyes were intensely looking straight to her grey ones. In less than a minute, Hugh’s lips were gently crashed on hers. Their mouths opened before their tongue began to dance with the other. Both eyes were shut as he grasped the back of her neck to हटाइए her closer to his face, deepening the किस as they go along. Her arms, as expected, began engulfing them together in a blissful embrace.
When reality struck Lisa, she was the one who broke the किस but still let her forehead touch his. “I don’t want आप to go through that door,” Hugh admitted.
“You want me to stay?” she asked, he nodded with a shy smile curving his lips.
“But I don’t think it’s a good idea. Staying here with आप will just…”
“Fuel the flame, I know.” He gulped and watched her pull away and gathered her things together.
“I’ll be here to check up on Bess tomorrow,” she informed before giving him a quick peck on his cheek before finally heading back home.


It might not be great as the पूर्व ones, but I'll make it up to आप as soon as I can. BTW, 'tac-siapo' दीवार is a kind of दीवार found in one of the restaurants here in the Philippines where आप could throw anything (seriously, ANYTHING) against it whenever you're mad to whoever. I just thought it fits with what Dan did with Lisa (bad boy) So, that's all for now! Thanks for reading!
