Hilson

Hilson is a combination of the names House and Wilson and refers to the two doctors being romantically interested in each other.

Hilson is not a canon relationship, so when a brief Hilson moment occurs in an episode. Fanfiction is also a popular outlet for the hopeful Hilson fans who are unsatisfied with House and Wilson's current "just friends" relationship.

However, in The Down Low (the episode title African-American slang for seeking out homosexual sex), the residents of Wilson's new condo become convinced that House and Wilson are in a relationship and House plays into their misconceptions.

Wilson: Pants that hang like a skirt."

Wilson: Look, House hates musicals and fashion and meringue. This whole thing is an act designed to earn your trust... in order to sleep with you.
Nora: I get it.

Nora: You're jealous. You know, if you want to spend more time with Greg, you should just tell him."

―The Down Low

"House: The jealousy is... killing me.
Nora: Well... he clearly cares about you. Very much.

"Wilson: Fine, you've known him since Cub Scouts. The more interesting question isn't what you dreamed but why? I'm guessing you're longing for either a renewed relationship with your dad or a new relationship with one of the Village People.
House: He was in the Navy not the Marines.
Wilson: I thought your dad was in the Marines?
House: The guy in the Village People.
