Sitting in front of Coach Sylvester in their cheerleading uniforms, Kailani finally had a chair to herself as she sat between Mercedes and Alisha, looking to the cheerleading coach as she spun around in her chair to face them, clicking a pen repeatedly.
"Ladies, what we have here is a grade-A dilemma." Coach Sylvester began, looking between the two middle Cheerios. "Firstly, Kailani, you sound like Ariana Grande and Rihanna had a baby with Ben Platt, but I cannot allow you to wear the men's uniform when I have heard enough talk to know you look just fine in the girls uniform." Kailani sighed, nodding in disappointment. "And Mercedes, your vocal cords have had more fantastic runs than a Kenyan track team but that look simply will not do. At first I thought you and Kenya over here wanted to make a subtle homage to yours truly but now I fear it's some sort of ironic comment."
"Ms. Sylvester, I'm just not comfortable in those Cheerios skirts and neither is Kai." Mercedes explained, taking Kailani's hand and squeezing it.
"They just don't fit us right, Ms. Sylvester." Kailani added, as Alisha and Kurt turned towards their friends.
"You guys shouldn't feel embarrassed about your body." Kurt said, as Alisha nodded.
"You're both hot." Alisha winked, smirking.
At that, Mercedes looked away from the girl and shook her head, smirking towards her friends.
"Embaressed?" She chuckled. "No, no. Kai and I are obviously worried about showing too much skin and causing a sex riot."
"Oh, absolutely." Kailani giggled, nodding her head with a roll of her eyes.
The four laughed together, Mercedes and Kurt wiggling their fingers with one another, while Alisha and Kailani laced their pinky fingers and kissed their knuckles, grinning at one another.
Coach Sylvester looked between the Fineapples with a chuckle. "How do you four not have a show on Bravo?" She voiced her thoughts aloud as she leaned towards the group on the top of her desk. "Here's the deal. Skinny Splits magazine, after much campaigning by one, Sue Sylvester, has named me cheerleading coach of the last 2,000 years. In seven days reporter Tracy Pendergrass will arrive on campus and my new star singers will have lost ten pounds and be in a gender-appropirate cheerleading uniform or they are off the team."
"Wait. What?" Alisha frowned. "Ten pounds?"
"In a week?" Kurt gasped.
"Are you serious?" Kailani asked, wrapping her arms around her stomach, brows pulling together.
