Oh, Brother?

Battle of the Bands Round 2

The week before the contest has been a whirlwind for Gunnar. He has his full schedule at NAYDA, work, band practice and Kaya. She's been distant lately and he's unsure why. He's been so busy that he doesn't notice until he realizes they haven't had sex all week. Usually they go at each other 2-3 times a day. He has to talk to her. He doesn't like this feeling. He had it once before, when she had a flirtation with Taylor. It almost broke up the band as well as them and Taylor. They are too close to that demo for him to let anything or anyone get in the way. Even Kaya. He loves her with everything he is, but even she can be replaced.

Gunnar is sitting on the sofa playing COD with some guy online called McKinleyQB#5. 'He's pretty good' Gunnar thinks they are evenly matched. "Dude" Gunnar yells into his headset. "Fuck watch him" he hears back. Kaya comes into the apartment bags in hand. "Got to jump off QB, my girl just walked through the door with food. Food before COD" "Play again soon, man" QB#5 says and then signs off.

"Hey bunny, how was class?" Gunnar asks while walking up to hold her from behind. He wraps is long arms around her waist placing soft wet kisses along her neck. "Frustrating. Gunnar stop I'm so not in the mood." Gunnar pulls back from her neck then turns her around to face him. "Ky, what's up with you? You are walking around here like a snotty brat. You don't have time for me, US! Are you cheating on me? Because I swear to God, Kaya, I don't think I'd be able to forgive you this time." Gunnar says. "No I'm not cheating on you. I promise you this time I'm not. It took us a long time to get back from that. I wouldn't jeopardize us or the band. I'm just jus..." she is searching for the word "Off. I'm just off" Gunnar pulls his girlfriend into a hug against his giant frame. "I'm sorry baby. What can I do? How can I help?" Gunnar tells her concerned. Kaya looks up at him, blue eyes meet brown "I'm so sorry I –I don't know. I'm so sorry." She's crying now. "Hey, whatever it is we will get through it together." Gunnar reassures her. "I think I'm pregnant" Kaya says.

Gunnar thinks he heard her wrong "Pregnant? With a baby?" "No a monkey. OF COURSE A BABY! God how could we have been so careless." She screams pacing back and forth. "Did you take a test?" he asks. "Not yet, that's what's in the bag. I bought four just to be sure." "Well, no time like the present" Gunnar tells her picking up the back and her hand leading her to the bathroom.

"God damn you're beautiful to me, Ohhh

Yes to me, Ohhh

Finn finishes the song with the last piano note, then waits for the band to react. He looks over to Rachel she's beaming, of course she got a preview the other night or should he say morning and she loved it. He looks to his brother Kurt. He has tears in his eyes. He looks at Sam and Puck. "Wow Finn that was WOW" Sam says. "Whipped" Puck grumbles which means he totally liked the song. Artie never really has much to say he just nods at Finn. "Thanks it means the world to me." Finn says standing from the piano to get back behind the drum kit.

"I think we should totally do that song for our Original at the Mercury" Puck says. "Totally" "I agree" "hell Yea" he hears at the same time. "Rachel what do you think?" Finn asks. "I think the song is beautiful and I think you should sing it with you and the piano for our original while we all harmonize in the background, because we are going to kick some serious ass with it." She says running behind the drums to Finn's lap giving him a kiss.

"Ewee" "That's 10 bucks in the jar" Kurt says as Puck reminds them of their no make out rule during band rehearsal. "No fair, HE just wrote me a beautiful song he deserved a kiss." Rachel pouts. "That lip and those eyes don't work on me Berry. I learned long ago those belong to Hudson. Now pay up" Puck says holding out his hand. "Fine!" She huffs, standing from Finn to find her purse. "Here happy now" "Yes now when I come over to kick your boys' ass at COD I can bring beer." Puck chuckles.
