A/N: I'm glad people are enjoying Thanks for the reviews!!! I figured I should probably address Thirteen's Huntington's at some point…Also, not really following the show storyline. Artistic license, right?

"You know this won't be perfect forever, right?" Remy asked, propped up on her arm in the bed, watching Cameron get undressed.

"What do you mean?" Ally turned to her, frowning.

"I'll start deteriorating at some point." Remy said bluntly. "You're literally going to watch me fall apart."

Ally nodded. "I know." She murmured softly.

"Are you sure that's something you want to deal with?" Remy asked her honestly.

Ally frowned at her, coming to sit on the bed. "Would I be here if I wasn't prepared to cope with it?" She examined Remy's face carefully. "Do you think I'd just disappear when things get bad? I've been here before."

Remy looked down. "I'm just afraid." She admitted. "I've never…"

Ally wrapped her arms around her gently. "I'll be here, Rem. No matter what happens."

Ally had finally gotten all of her stuff moved in. It may have taken her two weeks of visits in which she avoided Chase at any cost, making sure to head to the apartment only when she was sure she was on duty, but she'd finally done it. Her stuff was all at Remy's. Or, as she now referred to it: Home. Ally smiled.

Foreman wasn't speaking to either of them when he could avoid it, having found out that he took their side against Chase without knowing what was really going on.

House was ecstatic and made no attempt to hide it. While they tried to be discreet, he had developed a habit of appearing whenever they were having coffee or lunch and announcing to whoever was present that they were lesbians. They had both concluded it was easier to find it amusing, especially as Taub and Kutner had decided to follow suit.

Chase wandered around the hospital glaring at basically everyone, his face turning an interesting shade of puce anytime someone mentioned one of their names, which House also seemed to enjoy taking advantage of, especially after he managed to get Chase to explode in front of Cuddy one day.

In the meantime, Ally and Remy seemed to exist in a vacuum that no-one could break into. After much discussion, they had agreed to enjoy the time they had to it's fullest until Remy's symptoms started appearing. They would need to start coping soon enough.

"If you had to pick one place in the world to visit, where would it be?" Ally questioned. They were sitting on the balcony wrapped in blankets as they watched the stars.

"Hmmm." Remy thought for a while. "Somewhere different. Somewhere with lots of history. Egypt? Latin America?" she turned to Ally. "You?"

"Somewhere warm." Ally laughed. "There are so many places I want to see." She looked at Remy, eyes twinkling. "¿Hablas español?" (Do you speak Spanish?)

Remy chuckled. "Poquito, y muy mal." (A little, and very badly.) Ally snuggled up to her under the blankets.

The next day, she called Dr. Cuddy and asked a favour.

"Rem!"

Remy turned to see her girlfriend running towards her with flushed cheeks. "What's up, Al?" she chuckled, kissing her.

"I have a surprise." Ally was glowing. Remy raised an eyebrow. "Close your eyes." Remy rolled them once before obeying. "Hold out your hands." Ally instructed.

Remy complied and felt paper being placed into them. Her eyes fluttered open. Two plane tickets rested in her hands. "What's this?" she asked, a smile growing on her face.

Ally was beaming. "We're going to Mexico!"

Remy's mouth couldn't help but drop a little. "W-when?" was all she could come up with.

"Next weekend. I've booked us each 10 days off."

Remy was simply dumbstruck. "Wow." She moved forward slowly to envelope Ally in a giant hug. "Oh my God." She whispered, a smile growing on her face. "We're going to Mexico."

"So where exactly is Cuernavaca?" Remy questioned as she attempted to fit everything she needed into her bag.

"An hour or so from Mexico City." Ally replied. "It's a good location to get to lots of interesting places from. Not to mention all the historical stuff there."

"Do you have an itinerary planned?" Remy raised an eyebrow, chuckling.

Ally blushed. "Sort of."

Remy wandered over to wrap her arms around the other woman. "So what are we doing?" she questioned, moving Ally's hair aside to kiss her neck.

"Mmm." Ally leaned back to give her better access. "I don't think I'm going to tell you."

Remy rolled the computer chair away from the desk to straddle Ally's lap. "Oh?"

"Well, there's rather a lot of time on the plane where we can't be having sex, you see."

Remy smiled into Ally's neck. "You don't want to join the mile-high club?"

"I'm trying to give up illegal activities." Ally joked, raising Remy's chin so she could kiss her.

They arrived in the city at about 10 pm, dropping off their bags at the hotel before wandering into the zocalo to locate an interesting looking restaurant.

"This is amazing." Remy couldn't stop grinning and looking around them. They were in a little Italian place they'd found, a converted house with a giant garden full of tables.

"So do you want to know the itinerary now?" Ally teased her, reaching for her hand over the table.

"Give me the first couple of days." Remy sipped her glass of wine.

Ally grinned. "Well, tomorrow we're going to explore the city. There's a beautiful waterfall apparently, called the Salto de San Anton, and apart from that I thought it would be fun to just wander around the market and stuff."

Remy nodded. "Sounds great."

"And on Sunday, we're going to Las Estacas, a giant natural spring, to have a nice relaxing day. I figured the pyramids and caves and stuff would be less busy during the week."

Remy grinned. "We're going to see caves?"

"Yup. And to Tenochtitlan and Taxco, and Mexico."

"Wow."

Ally glowed again, squeezing her hand. "I'm so excited!"

Remy leaned in and kissed her across the table. "Me too."
