*Renn walked into the clinic, a sheepish, guiltyish look on her face. She'd kind of stopped showing up for work after Eponine died the second time, and, House had known she was pregnant at the time...
She desperately hoped that he wouldn't be the doctor on duty when she walked in. It would be too awkward.*

*House walked into the exam room with her chart.* "You have crappy work ethics," *he said, pointing at her with his flame cane.*

*House's line of sight went right to her lower abdominal area.* "I bet it did," *he said with a knowing smile.*
"Two/three months?"

"Yeah, well. Was, being the operative word," *she said with more than a little bitterness.*

*She gave him a "no shit, Sherlock," look, and continued.*
"That's why I'm here. I don't want it to happen again. It can't happen again!"
*She ran a hand through her hair with a sigh.*
"If there's anything wrong that can be fixed, I need to know. And if there's something wrong with me that caused it..."
*She broke off with a shrug.*

*House stared at her for a few seconds, intruigued by her desperation.* "I'll do a full prenatal work up," *he said as he paged Wilson. 25 gauge needle and 30cc test vials to exam 3.* "Did you pee since this morning?"

*She stood there kind of awkwardly, nerves and apprehension mounting. She tried to tell herself that everything was going to be fine, but...*

"I'm going to do a procedure called an amniocentesis. I'm going to stick a giant needle into your uterus, get some fluid, then sent it to the lab to test for genetic problems your fetus might have. Questions? Comments? Objections?"

"Giant needle. Lovely. I get local anesthetic, right?"
