"So do you like him?" Miguel sat on the sofa next to Gabriela.
She had told him about Andre after he caught her smiling at her phone while texting him.
"I mean, I guess. He's really cute and he's super kind to me. He's a gentleman." She explained
"Sounds like you do. Has he asked you on a date yet?" He questioned, his eyes still on the movie they were watching
"Uh, no. Not yet. Maybe he doesn't like me." She buried her face in her hands.
Miguel turned to look at her. "Hey, no. Look, you're an amazing girl, he'd be stupid not to like you."
"Thank you Miguel." She thanked with a smile which he returned

"Well, Rachel, congratulations. Normally you dress like the fantasy of a perverted Japanese businessman with a very dark, specific, fetish, but I actually like this look. Yay." Santana told her lightly clapping her hands
"Thank you." Rachel said fiddling with her pigtails
"I think what Santana is trying to say, Rachel, though i risk expulsion by saying so, is that it seems Britney Spears has really helped you blossom." Kurt said standing up. "That's all."
"Wait, Rachel. Is that true? I mean you sort of are dressing... differently" Mr Shuester asked her.
"Bouncy, bouncy, bounc-" Artie commented before Finn cut him off, clearly not enjoying Artie speaking about his girlfriend like that.
"All I know is I had a very vivid Britney Spears fantasy at the dentist and since then, it made me feel free to get out of my own way." Brittany nodded along to Rachel's explanation
"I think I've always been afraid to dress like a pretty girl because I've never felt like one before. But now I realise, it's okay to feel that way about yourself every now and then. Maybe it's a good thing"
"Its such a good thing, I can't believe it." Brittany agreed.
"William, a word." Sue said entering the choir room.
"I wonder what happened this time." Gabriela said to Santana who just shook her head.

The glee kids sat in the choir room discussing Artie joining the football team
"I was pretty sure Artie's legs don't work." Quinn said stating the obvious
"Did you get a leg transplant?" Brittany asked the boy in a wheelchair
"Nope. My teammates could push my chair like a battering ram." Artie explained
"Is that even allowed?" Gabriela asked
"Yeah, there's no rules against it. We checked." Finn answered
"I have Britney Spears to thank." Artie said
"You're welcome." Brittany told him. Santana gave her a confused look
"Britney plus nitrous gave me an amazing idea, and it gave me the nerve to tell coach Beiste that Finn and I both really want to be on the team."
"Wait, you're back on the football team?" Rachel asked her boyfriend who nodded "Yeah" He responded
"Suddenly you're way hotter to me. Weird." Santana told him
"Ew" Gabriela said disgusted by Santana's statement
"Wait. I don't get it." Puck said confused as he usually was. "How come everyone's having Britney Spears fantasies?"
"The nitrous oxide dentists use is mild hallucinogen." Gabriela told him, earning a confused look from the glee memebers. "What? I'm good at nerdy stuff." She shrugged
"You're such a dork." Santana giggled. "But its cute so don't worry." Gabriela felt her cheeks slightly heat up at the last part
"Studies have proven that it induces vivid dreams, often the last thing a patient thinks of. Subconscious moves to the forefronts. Since we've all been thinking so much about Britney, it all stands to reason." Artie explained further as Mr Shuester walked into the choir room.
"Okay guys, listen up." He said, directing all the attention to him
"Mr Shue, if i may-" Kurt said raising his hand, the glee teacher cutting him off
"Kurt, I overheard what you guys were just talking about, and I knw what you're gonna say. The answer is no." He told them. They all groaned at the man before he continued. "No, I'm not gonna stand in the way anymore. If you guys want to do Britney at this years homecoming, I'm fine with it."
Everyone erupted into cheers of excitement. Gabriela gave Brittany, Santana and Quinn high fives.
"And, more than that, I am going to perform with you." Mr Shue announced, silencing the Glee club's excitement. "Right?" He laughed
Santana looked at Gabriela who wore a similar expression of disgust.

Santana stood by Gabriela's locker, listening to the girl ramble on about her excitement for the assembly. Santana could barely pay attention, too busy admiring her best friend. The voice of one particular football player pulled her out of her trance.
"Hey Gabby." Andre greeted with a smile. "Santana" He acknowledged. She sent him a deadly glare in response.
Hi Andre." Gabriela greeted in return.
"I was wondering if you were busy friday night?" The boy asked her.
Gabriela turned to look at her best friend who was still glaring at the boy.
"Uh, no i don't think so. Why?"
"Well I was wondering if you wanna go on a date, to Breadstix?"
"Oh hell no." Santana shouted "Listen here idiot-"
Gabriela cut her off "I'll get back to you. Talk later." She shut her locker and grabbed Santana by the wrist
"Gabs, there's no way you can-"
"Santana. No. I know what I'm doing, okay? I think I like him, so I'm going to go on this date. If you don't think I'm doing the right thing, then walk away, because whether you like it or not, I'm doing this."
Santana didn't know why, but the words coming from her best friends mouth hurt her.
"Fine." She muttered tugging her hand out of Gabriela's grasp and walking away from her.
Gabriela stood there watching her best friend shoving through the crowd of McKinley students
Was I a bit too harsh?
