In the doorway stood a late 20s woman with short dark hair and pale green eyes. A guy with short sandy blonde hair and blue eyes stood behind her. These were my girlfriend's parents? Weird. On the other hand, they were also Snow White and Prince Charming. I better get used to weird.

They looked at me. And blinked. Then they blinked some more.

"Hi, I'm Remy. I'm... um... Emma's-"

"Girlfriend." Emma broke in. "Hi, mom. Dad. I'm bisexual."

They just stood there, frozen.

"Surprise!"

Her mom recovered first. "Okay, do... do you wanna come in?" Emma took my hand and I held onto hers tightly. We stepped past her parents. We heard a grunt and turned around. Emma's mom had elbowed her dad in the ribs. I bit my lip to keep from laughing. The door closed. No turning back now.

Dinner was set out on the table. We all sat down. Her mom was the first to speak. "So, Emma, you like girls?"

"Uh, yeah..."

She sat up, a questioning look on her face. "Is that why it didn't work out with Graham? Or August? Or Neil? Or Hook?"

"Mom!" Emma interrupted her. I raised one eyebrow. Looks like me and Emma have some catching up to do. "I'll explain later. And, no, that's not why. Graham died, August turned to wood and Neil got me sent to prison."

"Looks like I should watch my back, then." I joked in an attempt to lighten the mood. It didn't work. "Wait, Hook? As in captain Hook?" Emma blushed and said nothing. Oh yeah, I really have to have a talk with her later.

"So, Remy, what do you do?" Emma's mom asked me, I guess she hates awkward silences as much as I do.

"I'm a doctor at Princeton Plainsboro Teaching Hospital."

"Oh, that's nice."

More silence.

"How did you two get together?" Emma's dad. He sounds like he's done this before, the whole questioning-his-daughter's-partners-thing.

She gives me a look that means you take this. My look means don't make me. Then she gives me the famous I'm Allison Cameron, don't mess with me look.

I clear my throat and speak. "Well, Allison and I-"

"Who's Allison?" The parents said in sync. Creepy.

"Allison Cameron is actually the name my foster parents gave me."

"Oh."

"Anyway, Allison, sorry, Emma and I both worked at PPTH."

"You were a doctor?"

"Yeah, head or ER. Before I was a bounty hunter, but after prison. Being a doctor was fun. Despite the socially repressed ass of a boss."

"Sounds like your type, what with Hook and all OW!" Emma's mom elbowed her dad in the ribs. "What? Just saying." Emma had gone bright red.

"I actually had a thing for him. We went out one time." She muttered. At my questioning look she qualified, "before you started working at the hospital."

"So, we were out of cases, and House, sent me down to the ER to get us a new case. He usually sent Taub or Foreman, but he's a pervert and had heard a rumour about Allison and a female nurse, so he sent me, 'cause he knew I was bisexual. I got my case, but while I was down there I saw Chase leaving Allison's office, looking upset. I went into the office, and Ally was crying. Now, I had had a crush on Ally for ages by then. I went up to her, and asked her what was wrong, and she told me she had broken up with Chase. Not gonna lie, I was kinda waiting for her to break up with him." I stopped and smiled at Emma, who looked mildly offended. But in a cute way. She gave me a peck on the cheek to show all was forgiven. My mind went a bit foggy. I shook myself. I couldn't form complete sentences. "I...um...well...you see..."

Emma laughed. "Remy won't be able to talk for a few minutes. Anyway, I told her I broke up with Chase, and she comforted me and left. For the next few days she was spending as much time in the ER as possible. About a week later, I found a secret admired letter on my desk. Not gonna lie, I was sorta creeped out. I wasn't ready after Robert. Then a week later there was another one. It went on for about a month and a half. By then I had figured out that it was a girl, that they knew me well, and that they worked at the hospital. Then she left flowers on my locker with a card that said, 'meet me tonight, 7 o'clock, at the parking lot, if you don't show, I'll leave you alone.' It was pretty stupid of me, but I went, with pepper spray." I half smiled at this, while her parents started laughing. "I saw Remy, waiting by her car, I got in with her after she revealed it was her. We went to a restaurant, and a movie, got to talking, and the rest is history." I gave her a kiss and her reaction was similar to mine. I smirked.

"Wait, who's House?" That was Emma's mom.

"My boss, her ex-boss, she worked for him, then she quit when Chase, her ex husband, got fired. He wasn't her ex husband then." I clarified.

"You were married?" Her dad asked, leaning forward.

"Yeah. Robert Chase. He was a doctor on House's team the same time I was. It... It didn't end well." Emma looked a bit sheepish.

"Why did you divorce him?" Emma's mom tried to salvage the situation.

"He killed a man."

"Oh."

The rest of the meal was eaten in relative silence. At the end of the night, Emma drove me to the B&B.
