This was exceptionally stupid, but when Danny left again House kind of missed him.

No, he told himself, he missed having someone cook eggs and tidy up. Insisted to himself, really. Because obviously House was not lonely.

He did, however, actually smile when there was a knock at the door and Danny was on the other side.

"Well," he said. "That took you long enough."

"Never had cake when I was growing up. Did you?" Danny asked.

"Oh... occasionally," House said. "My uh... my father was in the kings guard. The old king. Same one I worked for, though by then he was very old. Anyway, cake, sometimes. Though my father wasn't really a fan of anything that might actually bring someone joy."

"I get that," Danny nodded. "Pretty sure my parents only had cake when I wasn't around, if they ever did at all. ...Sour people, my mum and dad."

“Here’s to daddy issues,” House said with a snort. “Okay… have a bite.”
