A/N I like this updating everyday thing. I think I might just stop going to school, and write all the time... All though I don't think my mom would like that..., or my teachers...
Disclaimer: At the beginning of this I said that I would own House when pigs flew. My sister threw on of my many stuffed pigs at me today, and I thought I'd own House for a moment. Then it hit me in the face, with reality, and I knew I never would.
"Yeah, I'm at Remy's. No I'm fine, I just couldn't be there anymore." Remy woke up to Allison's voice, she forced herself to sit up even though she really just wanted to sleep. She looked for the blonde when she had determined that she was no longer in bed.
She stood leaned against the door frame. Phone cupped to her ear. Remy pushed the blankets off, and stood. Legs shaky, and her vision blurry. Her body still half asleep. Allison sunk into the hand she placed on her arm. Resting her head against the brunette's shoulder. The little sleep she had gotten had done little to fight off the exhaustion she was feeling.
"Yeah dad. I'll be there in the morning." Remy wrapped an arm around Allison's middle leading her back to the bed. It was three thirty in the morning, and they still had quite a bit of sleep that needed doing.
"Okay... You go to sleep, I know mom won't want you staying up when she has nurses to take care of her." She rested her head against Remy's shoulder as the brunette lay them down, her eyes falling shut briefly before she forced them back open to keep from falling asleep. "Yes you do. Mom will need you in the morning, and so will Jason and Anthony." Remy pulled the blankets over the two of them again. "Goodnight dad.." Her eyes fell shut for a moment again, in which Remy took the phone from her hand. Her fingers attempted to retain her grip on it, but she soon gave up, and moved the hand to rest on the warm body next to her's hip.
Remy checked the phone, only hearing the plain dial tone, Allison's dad had already hung up. She hung up the cell, set it on her bedside table and snuggled back up to Allison.

"Hey give it!" Anthony Allison's youngest, brunette brother called. Punching his brother in the arm. Jason the middle child lifted the chips that the smaller boy wanted higher over his head.
"Boys." Catherine, their mother scolded. In a feeble broken voice. That instantly had their submission. Jason handed over the chips, and took the free seat in the room next to his father. Catherine turned her attention back to her daughter. "You don't need to be here. I'm fine, the doctors think that they need to watch me like hawks to make sure that I, I don't know, get in another car accident in this bed." The older blonde flashed a smile.
"I want to be here mom." Allison insisted, gripping the edge of the bed.
"No one wants to be in a hospital." Catherine responded. Moving her casted arm that rested on her upper stomach trying to find a more comfortable position.
"You know what I mean. I mean that I want to be here with you." Allison put on her own smile.
"You're a wonderful daughter. Is Remy here?" The injured woman looked to the door, and then back to her daughter. Obviously knowing the answer.
"Yeah, she's in the waiting room. She said she didn't want to intrude, that it's a family thing or whatever." Allison looked away, she had really wanted Remy to come in here with her. Something about seeing her mother, all broken like this made her feel like she was just about to fall apart. But Remy didn't have the best record with hospitals, and she definitely didn't want to make her uncomfortable.
"Tell her that she is family, and she wouldn't be intruding." Catherine patted her daughter's hand with her undamaged one.
"I love you." Allison stated touching her mom's arm. Unable to remember the last time she had told her so. Instantly wondering if she would have thought about that had the accident been..., worse.
"I love you too sweetie. Now go get your girlfriend, I know I wouldn't want to be in a hospital waiting room all alone." Allison nodded smiling at her mother's intuition. The woman knew nothing about Remy's family, or current lack of, or how it had gotten that way, and yet she knew that she shouldn't be left alone. Also she may be smiling at the fact that her mother had said her girlfriend like it was most the normal thing in the world.
Allison entered the waiting room, and found Remy asleep seated on one of the couches. She smiled, creeping up on the brunette. She gave her a small nudge. Resting her hands on her girlfriend's forearms.
"Rem, wake up."
Remy fought down the urge to open her eyes, and tell her that she had never been asleep. Instead she leaned forward, miscalculating and landing a sloppy kiss on her cheek. Allison let out a small giggle, and kissed Remy briefly on the lips.
"I thought you were asleep." Allison giggled again. Remy peeked out at her through one open eye.
"I wasn't." The brunette replied. "Do you even know how many times I've slept in a hospital waiting room?" Remy sat up straighter, kissing Allison on the cheek again. This time purposefully.
"Not really." Allison frowned. "My mom says you can come in with the family. You don't have to sit out here all alone." She pulled on Remy's arms.
"Aw, I'm fine really. You should be with your family." Remy slid her hands up to hold Allison by the forearms. Using the leverage to pull herself up to stay eye level with her girlfriend.
"Come on." Allison rolled her eyes at Remy's insistence. Tugging the brunette to the room.

"Allie baby girl come here." Lisa wrapped her best friend in a bear hug.
"How are you doing?" Lisa pulled back from her a few steps. Still gripping her upper arms.
"Fine." She gave her head a little shake.
"And your mom?" Lisa asked.
"She's doing fine." Allison glanced to Remy, who had her thumbs hooked in her suspenders. Watching her closely. She wished people would just stop talking about it. Her mom was getting better. She would be coming home from the hospital tomorrow night, and things would go back to normal.
"I was worried." Lisa hugged her tightly again before releasing her.
"Stop it you're going to make me start crying again." Allison shook her head, as if to rid the tears she could feel building in her eyes.
"No. You're not allowed to cry." Remy wrapped her arms around Allison from behind, and slowly started swinging them from side to side. Mumbling something against her neck. Lisa smiled at the way that Allison seemed to calm. Sinking into the brunette.
"Keep your hands to yourselves." A teacher commanded as she walked past. Remy groaned, but grudgingly released the blonde.
"Agh, stupid PDA rule." Allison groaned, leaning against the locker next to her. She slid her hand into Remy's tugging her closer.
"You two really do, touch..., a lot." House showed up at Lisa's side, holding her bag at arms length. "Here, next time I'm not getting it out of your car. So don't forget it." Lisa took the bag, tucking it into the crook of her arm.
"Thank you." Lisa leaned onto her toes and gave him a kiss on the scruffy cheek. Ignoring his complaints. Allison turned her back to the locker behind her.
"We should do something after school." Allison stated. Everyone seemed to know she was avoiding going to the hospital. "Like the mall. I haven't been to the mall for awhile." Lisa nodded. Patting her on the shoulder.
"Alright. Let's go to the mall." Lisa spun back around, lightly smacking House in the stomach. "We're going to the mall." Allison smirked at the way Lisa didn't ask just told him. Before pushing herself off of the lockers and heading for homeroom. Remy following close behind.
Lisa stopped Remy at the door to their class. The taller brunette turned to her with raised eyebrows.
"Allison and her mom... They used to be really close. So she's having trouble with this, and she seems pretty much fine right now. But the thing is Allison cares about everything and everyone. So she's going to probably just break down. Not only about this too. Little things make her cry, and big things sometimes seem to not effect her at all." Lisa paused to see if Remy was still listening. She was, so she continued.
"I used to be there when she broke down. Now she'll go to you. Like she did Saturday night. You just need to be there. I need to know that you're going to take care of her, because I know she's going to take care of you." She finished with a small smile.
"Of course I will. I'll always be there for her." Lisa let out a small breath. Shaking her head.
"I knew that." She seemed to be telling herself that not Remy. "Just, I'm protective of her." Lisa looked at the quickly filling classroom. "You're both just so jacked up." She gave Remy's bangs a ruffle, before entering the classroom.

"You should get it if you want." Remy commented on her girlfriend's current discussion with herself, while looking at belts.
"I mean I don't even know if I fit in that acronym..." Remy turned around to see the patch that Allison had been thinking about getting to add to her messenger bag.
"I do..." Remy trailed off. Pulling one of the LGBT patches from the rack.
"Do you think you really want to label yourself?" Remy looked at the other various rainbow colored patches. Resting a hand on Allison's hip from behind.
"Well I don't really know what to call myself. I mean... I'm definitely attracted to you." Allison grinned looking her up and down, and taking a step closer. Remy felt heat come unexpectedly to her cheeks. Sometimes when Allison caught her off guard like this. It could just get her all worked up.
"But I don't even know about anyone else right now... But if I'm a girl, and I like a girl. I guess I fit under here." She snagged the patch from her girlfriend going to the cash register. House showed up from the back of the small store next to Remy.
"Were you two just discussing her gayness?" He asked looking from the blonde at the cash register to the brunette next to him and back again.
"I think so." Remy looked a bit puzzled before shaking her head and catching up with the blonde who had just finished paying.
A/N It's so short it kills me. Sorry. It's really just the continuation of last chapter. This one might be nearing it's end. As in around three more chapters. Unless I have an epiphany as where to take this next. But don't fear I have a couple other story ideas brewing in this strange little mind of mine. Also a couple one-shots I want to write.
I wasn't going to ask you to review. But I didn't on that one chapter and a lot of you guys didn't so. I think that I should just keep it up. If you read this, you have to review. It's the law, and if you don't you will be a fugitive.
