7. Contest

As much as Rachel loved preforming on Broadway she was glad that her run in her latest show had recently finished. It meant that she could spend more time with her girlfriend and her best friend. They had been in a local bar for over an hour now and she had noticed that she's not the only one wanting Santana's attention.

"It looks like you've got an admirer over there Santana" Rachel says.

"It comes with the territory."

"What's does that mean?" Kurt asks.

"It means when you look this good, it's to be expected."

"It's nice to know you brought your ego out with you tonight" Kurt replies.

"It's not my ego, it's just fact. If you're attractive then you get more attention."

"I think people find personalities more attractive than a person's appearance" Rachel says.

"If that's true then how the hell did you end up with Santana?"

"Shut your mouth Lady Hummel before I shut it for you." Santana threatens before turning back to Rachel.

"You're wrong, people are shallow and the first thing they take notice of is looks not whether or not the person is a great conversationalist or has a good sense of humour."

"Why don't you find out?" Kurt suggests.

"What do you mean?"

"You both have an hour to see who can get the most phone numbers by using your preferred methods. Santana you can use your attractiveness and Rachel can use her personality."

"I'm game if you are" Santana says.

An hour later both Santana and Rachel return to the booth they left Kurt in.

"Okay Santana we'll count your first" Kurt says taking the numbers from Santana.

"Six."

"You only got six? I thought you'd get more than that" Rachel says.

"I did get offered a couple of one night stands but they didn't want to give me their number."

"So you went to the classy ladies I see" Rachel teases.

"Rachel Berry are you being sarcastic?" Santana smirks before pulling Rachel into a kiss.

"Okay guy please stop. Rachel it's your turn" Kurt interrupts.

Rachel hands over her pile of phone numbers, made up of scraps of paper and napkins.

"Ten, so it looks like Rachel wins" Kurt reveals.

"How did you get ten?"

"Why are you so surprised?" Rachel asks.

"I'm not, I was just curious" Santana replies.

"Well I met a lovely group of young men that were very willing to give me their phone numbers."

"What group of guys?"

"They're over there sat in that corner booth" Rachel explains pointing over to a table in the corner of the bar.

"Is Santana getting jealous that her girlfriend is hotter than she is?" Kurt teases.

"I'm not jealous and I'm very aware of how hot my girlfriend is. I'm just not happy that a group of guys think they have a chance with her that's all."

"There is no need to worry. You're the only person that I need" Rachel reassures her.

"Well I need another drink, what about you two?" Santana asks.

As she makes her way over to the bar she sees one of the guys from the booth waiting for his drink. She thinks that it's only polite that she introduces herself.

"Hey" she greets.

"I'm Santana. I heard you met my girlfriend before, her name is Rachel Berry."

"Oh you're Rachel's girlfriend. It was nice of her to come over to us. My friends and I are huge fans of hers. She was absolutely amazing in RENT" the guy replies.

From the moment he opened his mouth Santana's gaydar went into overdrive.

"My friends and I are part of a gay group chorus and every month we get together and watch a musical on Broadway. We are always looking out for the next Rachel Berry production. She told us that she has one in the works so we are all very excited."

"We all are. Excuse me."

Santana sends the man a smile before she marches her way back over to the booth where her girlfriend was sitting.

"So I just met one of your friends, turns out Rachel cheated on our contest" Santana says sliding into the booth.

"I didn't cheat."

"Yes you did. You were supposed to get the numbers of people that were interested in you" Santana replies.

"Those guys were interested in me."

"Not sexually they were only interested in your musical talents."

"When we agreed to the contest there was no mention that the numbers had to come from people that were sexually attracted to us" Rachel argues.

"It was implied!" Santana yells.

"I agree with Santana, sorry Rachel." Kurt interjects.

"So if we discount the gay choir, that leaves you with five numbers and since I have six that means I win" Santana says with a smug look on her face.

"Where are our drinks?" Kurt asks.

"Sorry I forgot. I go get you something pink and sparkly with a little umbrella" Santana smirks as she leaves the booth.

"I know you're trying to sound mean but that actually sound delicious" Kurt yells after her.

When Santana returns to the table with the drinks she finds two men standing at each side of her girlfriend.

"Who the hell are you two, are you members of the gay chorus?" she asks.

"Oh these two aren't gay" Kurt smirks.

"This is Jason and Tommy, they wanted to buy me a drink" Rachel answers.

"Well that's okay because I already got her one." Santana says putting down a drink in front of Rachel to emphasise her point.

"If you change your mind" Tommy says slipping his card onto the table in front of Rachel.

"I think we need a recount" Rachel says handing Santana the phone number.

"So you got another number that makes us equal on six each" Santana replies.

"Yes but the other guy slipped me his number before you came over, so you do the math."
