The Chapel supposedly had a good mini-TV reception but that wasn't the reason why Sierra was currently standing in the middle of the hall, staring at the decor. The place seemed very peaceful, tranquil and for some reason she felt the need to disturb the eerie silence with the sound of her own voice. It wasn't that she liked the sound of her own voice or anything, it was more to do with the fact that she was frustrated. Very frustrated and she didn't know what to do. Hitting herself in the head with her own hands, Sierra slid to the floor and screamed. Silent tears ran down her cheeks as she sat there, in the chapel. Good thing there was no-one around. |

Cuddy was returning to her office from a lunch meeting with another doctor when she heard the scream. Her eyes narrowed as she attempted to figure out where the sound had come from. Glancing around, she noticed the door of the hospital chapel was ajar. Quickly, she made her way there and pulled the door all the way open.
A girl was sitting there. She hadn't seen the girl around the hospital before, and she was obviously a patient. Cuddy wasn't sure which ward she belonged to, but she would find out. And then she would call in someone.
"Are you alright?" she asked softly, walking slowly into the chapel, her shoes hardly making any sound on the floor. Cuddy knelt down next to the girl.

Well, she had thought that there hadn't been anyone there. What she hadn't accounted for was herself leaving the Chapel door ajar. Cursing herself silently when she heard the voice, Sierra wiped her tears away with the back of her hands and looked up, hoping that the new person wouldn't touch her. As usual, when she opened her mouth, Sierra's words were whispered. "I'm... fine." I think. She added mentally, taking in the sight of the other person and the position that she was in. Instantly, Sierra shuffled backwards slightly, gaining a distance that she was comfortable with between herself and the woman. Just... just don't touch me. she pleaded in her head, not really expecting the woman to hear her thoughts. Although, that'd be creepy. |

Cuddy's eyes narrowed in concern. People who were fine didn't scream like that. But she wouldn't jump to conclusions about where this girl belonged just based on that. Something in her cracked when the girl backed away from her. It was obvious to Cuddy that she was scared, so she tried to calm her down.
"I'm not going to hurt you. I just want to help. I'm Doctor Cuddy." she said softly, not moving. The last thing she wanted to do was scare her more. She had to make sure the girl was calm before doing anything. It would make everything a lot easier on both of them. "Who's your doctor? Do you want me to call them?" Again she didn't move, didn't raise her voice. Tried to show the girl that she could be trusted.

She wasn't exactly scared, more wary of the other person in front of her. Having not really had a lot of contact with other people during her fifteen years of being alive, she had grown to be very wary of the others around her. Hating contact of any kind, even if it was a slight pat on the shoulder, or an accidental knock; she hated it and would continue to hate it until she got over it. "I, It's... House, Dr. House and Dr. Wilson, I think. I don't know." she mumbled, keeping her eye on the woman in front of her. Silently apprasing her for the choice to not move further towards the blonde girl, she had a habit of lashing out at people who came too close.

So that was it. She was from the cancer ward. But what was she doing all the way down here? Cuddy momentarily ignored the mention of House's name. She couldn't recall him having a cancer case, much less passing one on to Wilson. She'd ask him about it later. Right now though...
"Do you want me to call Doctor Wilson?" she asked, her hand moving very slowly and very discreetly to her pager. "I'm sure he's wondering where you've gone." She touched the numbers, hiding the gesture with her arm and lab coat. Cuddy held off pushing the 'call' button until she had an answer. "What are you doing down here, anyway?" She tried to keep her voice even, trying to make the girl more comfortable around her. It would be easier to get answers that way.

Do you want me to call Doctor Wilson? The woman, Doctor Cuddy asked her. Sierra, honestly, wasn't so sure that she wanted to have her doctor come down her and take her back to her room. He was the type of person to touch you, affectionate, and Sierra hated being touched. I'm sure he's wondering where you've gone. The blonde shook her head at that, she wasn't so sure, she hadn't seen him since this morning and he was a busy man; or so she thought anyway. What are you doing down here, anyway? Sierra looked up, this woman was trying too hard at keeping her voice even, from cracking and making her uncomfortable. "It's okay, you don't have to keep your voice even talking to me. I'd rather you didn't call Doctor Wilson, he might be mad at me for leaving my bed and I just wanted to see the Chapel, hope you don't mind." |

Nodding, Cuddy moved her hand away from her pager. The call would cancel itself if the button wasn't pushed, so Cuddy didn't have to worry about erasing the number.
"I don't think Doctor Wilson would be mad. He doesn't get angry very easily..." Cuddy shrugged slightly. "But he does get worried easily." She figured the girl knew that, but she didn't know what else to say. "It's not a problem if you wanted to see the chapel. I wouldn't even have known you were in here if you hadn't screamed."

Sierra shrugged, she had an ability to rile people up something cronic when she wanted too and she had no doubt in her mind that she was going to end up pushing Doctor Wilson's buttons at some point during her stay here, at the hospital. "Well, to be honest. I thought that the Chapel was just a little too quiet, I didn't mean to scream, I just thought of something and it turned into something.... something bad, thus the scream. I'm sorry for disturbing you."
