Today, both Rachel and Mr. Shue got sick and had to miss glee. I bet Rachel is yelling at her Dads that she shouldn't be missing glee, even as she throws up.
Kurt chuckled and crossed his legs. Then he realized how much that tiny chuckle broke the silence of the room. The rest of the glee kids were sitting in their maroon chairs and looking awkwardly around the room.
Kurt sighed and stood up, brushing his bangs out of his face.
I guess I'll have to be Rachel today.
He walked to the centre of the room and stood with his right elbow resting in his left hand and his right hand in the air.
"All right people, as much as I enjoy sitting here examining the dust on the floor, we really should start thinking of ways to beat vocal adrenaline for next time. If we slack off, you all know very well what could happen."
A few people groaned and mumbled.
"So... ? Are you all just empty batteries waiting for Mr. Shue and Rachel to charge you up?"
Kurt put his hands on his hips.
"Come on, lets... think of songs. Or even just a genre?"

Puck wasn't even paying attention to what kurt was saying. His mind was afloat somewhere else, thinking of hot cougars. And well, besides that, he was thinking of Quinn, and their baby.
Yes, their baby girl... Now what name would suit her now? He thought, scratching his chin, deep in thought. Wait a minute--what the heck was his problem? He was thinking about naming his daughter? That was so unlike him. Ah, screw it, Quinn can name her whatever she wants, he scowled to himself.
He sighed, and stretched his legs. What a slow start to the day, this rehearsal was getting boring.

Finn sighed. Rehearsal was much more fun with Rachel here. He decided that he would go to her house later and see what was wrong. She was probably furious that she wasn't at school. Then he remembered, Kurt had just asked a question about songs or genres.
"I don't know. I like classic rock, but that's just me."

Kurt dropped his hands and sighed with relief. Someone had spoken. And it was his beloved Finn.
Kurt must have given Finn an intense look of admiration, because Finn shifted awkwardly and coughed.
Kurt straightened himself up.
"Thank you, Finn. Yes, it might be nice to take baby steps away from all the showtunes. Hmm... well my dad listens to a song called Undun by The Guess Who all the time. It's nice. An easy listener. It would sound good in Finn's voice. Maybe Rachel could arrange it into more parts."
Kurt drummed his fingers on the top of the piano.

"Yeah. I know that song it's pretty cool. Now that we found a song, what else are we supposed to do?" Finn asked. Things in rehearsal where going pretty good. Finn decided that Rachel and Mr. Schue weren't needed to be productive.

Puck looked up at the ceiling, wondering what he should do next. Should he go up to Quinn and tell her he really wanted to keep the baby? Or should he shut up and mind his own business? He pulled at his mohawk. This was getting frustrating.

"Well Artie, you have your guitar right?"
Artie nodded.
"I can look up the chords for the song on my laptop. And Finn could try singing it... "
Everything about Kurt screamed confidence, but he was slightly nervous trying to be a leader. A Rachel.
He was about to get his laptop out of his leather messenger bag, when his phone rang.
"Hello?"
Kurt asked, in a confused and sarcastic tone, considering whoever called him called him during school.
"It's Rachel. She's kind of hysterical. she wants to talk to you, Finn."

"Okay." Finn said with a confused look on his face. He took the phone and put it to his ear.
"Hey Rach, what's wrong?" He asked.
"Finn, this is propsterous. My father's are keeping me home because of the flu! Just the flu! I need to be there. We are never going to suceed if I can't be there to help. Are you guys even doing anything?"
"Take a breathe. Don't worry, go to bed, and were actually doing great. Kurt took over and he's actually pretty awesome at this leader thing."
"Oh. Well I must speak with him; i'll be the judge if he's awesome or not."
"Kurt, she wants to talk to you." Finn said as he held the phone out to Kurt.

Puck rolled his eyes, rachel's voice was so loud in boomed out of the phone. Trust Rachel to be worrying her butt off over glee when she was at home, having the flu.

Kurt took the phone cautiously, as if it had caught Rachel's sickness.
"What?" He said impatiently.
"So, you're Mr. Schue today, hmm? Well, I can't stand to miss a day of practice, and I don't want all the rest of you not to take advantage of this time. What have you accomplished so far?"
Kurt leaned back on the piano and rolled his eyes.
"Well, I believe we have chosen a song. We were about to practice it, when you called."
"What?! You picked a song without me? How can you make a decision without consulting the entire group?"
"What else were we suppose to do? Don't tell me you would have thought it fine and dandy if I had told you we were sitting around doing nothing. Besides, you normally make all the decisions."
There was a moment of silence.
"Give the phone to Puck."
"And why would I do that?"
"I printed off some sheet music i was going to give him today, if I wasn't sick. I was going to make him- I might suggest he sing Stars from Les Miserables. It's in his range."
Kurt sighed dramatically and handed the phone to Puck.

Puck looked over at kurt's outstretched arm. "me?" he asked, cocking a brow. Shrugging he took the phone.
"yeah?" he answered in his what do ya want voice.
"you don't have to sound so hostile, puck. Anyway, I hope you haven't been slacking away in a corner thinking about girls while Mr Schue and I aren't around.." she said wistfully.
Puck wanted to laugh, she knew exactly what he was doing.
"so what if I have? You ask to speak to me so you can lecture me?" he asked, clearly amused.
"sadly, no. Though I'd gladly do that when I'm back in school tomorrow, this flu isn't going to keep me cooped up at home. It's killing me," she said theatrically
"uh huh, so, enlighten me. What's the reason for wanting to speak with me?" he couldn't help but smile a little. She was unbelievably amusing.
"I was thinking that you should sing stars from the Les Miserables. I wanted to pass you the score today, but since I'm stuck here it looks like you should do some background research by yourself first.. After all-"
he cut her off. "wait- you want me to sing a granny song?" he scoffed into the receiver.
"Noah, it's a really meaningful one. It isn't a granny song, I listen to it all the time! Besides, it's your range!" she exclaimed into the phone excitedly, and ended up having a coughing fit.
Puck rolled his eyes. Since he was feeling nice, and she was sick, he'd humour her.
"yeah okay." he stretched his arm, "I'll do it, just let me go already.."
"you sure? You're giving in already?" her voice peaked in suspicion. He could imagine her brow furrowing at the other end of the line.
"don't make me change my mind," he told her in conclusion.
Shaking his head with a small smirk, he tossed the phone back to kurt and leant back in his seat.

Kurt put the phone to his ear, slowly.
"Err... hullo?"
But Rachel had hung up, similar to the way she storms out of rehearsal.
Rachel will probably be back tomorrow.
For some reason, that was a bit relieving to Kurt, but he'd never admit it.
"So, Puck, you're going to sing one of Rachel's showtunes, are you?"
Kurt asked as he examined his fingernails.

"Yeah Puck, show them what you got!" Finn hollared teasingly. He tried to get everyone to laugh; this rehearsal was getting boring. He really missed Rachel's nagging and constant bossing people around. At least you could laugh at the victims expressions.

Santana barely looked up from the mirror she held closely to her face to understand what that sudden outburst of excitement really was. She decided it was nothing of interest and went back at fixing her makeup.

Puck smirked, "depending on my mood, I have to go back and give the song a listen.." he looked I've at santana fixing her makeup and rose a brow at her. But he couldn't help letting his gaze linger a little longer than usual. Oh, she was hot. That's why he flirted with her in the first place.
