Oh. Brother?

I do not own Glee or its characters. I do not own Kaya or its characters. Songs used are not mine, they belong to the wonderful songwriters and singers.

My Gunnar, Kaya muse has left the building. Everyone seems to hate Kaya any way so I'll be doing away with her. I have plans for Gunnar and his drumming, never fear


Chapter 12

Which Hudson Wins?


It was here, the final two rounds of the Battle of the Bands. Ever since the Hudson revelation, Finn and Gunnar have forged a tentative relationship. They've gone out had coffee alone, with Blaine and Kurt, even with Rachel. Kaya always seems to have something else to do. She's been distant. Taking secret phone calls and texts. He knows she's pulling away from him. He just hopes she'll do the right thing before she cheats on him again. Maybe he'll break up with her. Make it easier on both of them.

Gunnar thinks she's still intimidated by Rachel, but what he's seem out of Rachel she seems like a wonderful girl. Kaya is being insecure. Gunnar wishes he could help her.

"Hey, bunny! You home? Gunnar calls out after making his way through the apartment. He hears some whispered voices. He is still walking to the living room and he sees Taylor sitting on the couch with Kaya. They are drinking some beers and sitting a little too close for Gunnar's comfort.

"What's going on? Gunnar asks.

They hear him and are startled. Kaya jumps up and away from Taylor to give Gunnar a hug.

"Baby, when did you get home? I missed you." Kaya says standing to kiss Gunnar on the mouth.

"I was yelling from the door, how could you not know I was home? Gunnar questions

"I guess we were so into our conversation we didn't hear you." She says back to her boyfriend before grabbing her beer and going to the kitchen.

"You want one?" she asks Gunnar. He nods, she looks at their lead guitarist "You?"

Taylor looks at Kaya like she's crazy. He can't believe her. They had just been discussing them and now she's all in Gunnar mode. Why does he let her do this to him, to Gunnar? He should tell Gunnar the truth. He is in love with Kaya. But what good would that do? It would only server to undermine the band. Damn her, why can't she make up her mind.

"Nah, I'm going to bounce. I'll see you two love birds tomorrow night at the Mercury." with that Taylor moves to the door.

"Taylor." Kaya calls to him

"It's fine Ky, you know whatever." he spats out in disgust.

"What was that?" Gunnar asks

"I don't want to talk about Taylor, I want to focus on you and me. I know I've been distant but that's going to change. I'm going to change. I can't let that Rachel girl get into my headspace so much."

"How long have we've know each other Kaya? Don't treat me like an idiot."

"I-I'm not. What do you mean?" Kaya asks knowing Gunnar knows the truth. She just can't bring herself to believe it.

"I know." He looks at his girl, trying to find the truth he knows is there. "I know you're in love with Taylor and he's in love with you."

"I'm –no-not. Gunnar. I" she can even deny it while looking into his eyes.

"Look Kaya, I've loved you since we were sixteen. I don't know any more if it's romantic or friendship love. All I do know is that you're not in love with me. We should do the adult thing and just let us go." Gunnar says in a matter of fact way.

Kaya starts to protest, but can't even find the fight for them. "I think you're right Gunnar. I never meant to hurt you, you know. I do love you Gunnar. I hope you know that. I've been looking at dorms at the BCM since I've been talking to… I can move into one tomorrow."

"That would be fine. I think I'll stay at my brothers tonight. Not Blaine obviously. Finn's" Gunnar turns and walks into "their" room and packs a small overnight bag.

He doesn't look at her, he walks to the front door. Looks back, but her back's to him so he turns the knob and heads out the door. He hears her cry as he walks away for the night. What is she crying for? She is the one in love with someone else.


*KNOCK KNOCK*

"Coming." Finn yells from the bathroom. He takes a towel and wraps it around his waist. Running to the door so the knocking wouldn't wake up Rachel. She has had a rough couple of weeks with the play at school and getting ready for the next battle.

Finn opens the door to see his face staring back at him. He doesn't know if he'll ever get use to that. "Hey Gunnar! What's up?" he asks his twin. Looking down at the bag in Gunnar's hand.

Gunnar looks at his new brother with hurt in his eyes "Kaya and I broke up." he simple says

Finn opens the door wider so Gunnar could walk through. "She's moving into the dorms tomorrow, but I couldn't be in the same apartment with her tonight."

"Crash here dude. Rachel and Kurt won't mind and Blaine will be here anyway." Finn tells him. "Let me get some clothes on then we can talk, or not, play COD or whatever." Finn rushes to his room to change into some clothes.

"Who's at the door baby?" Rachel asks sleepily.

"Gunnar broke up with Kaya." Finn tells her while pulling on his boxers.

"Oh, that's horrible. Haven't they been together forever like us?"

"Yeah, but I don't even know what happened. I was naked. Although dude looks like me I doubt he wants to see my wet, naked body. So I'm putting on clothes and I'm going to talk to him." Finn says zipping up his jeans. Giving his sexy naked girlfriend a kiss. "Put clothes on before you come out." he reminds her.

"Mmmm, tempting two Hudson's. Probably too much for even me to handle." Rachel says seductively.

"Babe, that's my brother." Finn says

"I was kidding. The only Hudson I want has a cute little Fin in his hair and a cute ass." Rachel lifts her head for another his. "Go help your brother." she says swatting Finn's butt.

Gunnar explained what happened to Finn, telling him he wasn't even that upset. He and Kaya were growing apart since she cheated before. Really they were only trying for the band.

"Dude what are you going to do about the contest?" Finn questions

"I haven't talked to the rest of the band, but I'm out. I can't be in the band with the two of them. I know it was a mutual thing, but I'm not okay with watching them two be together." Gunnar says

"You could always join us." Rachel interjects coming from the bedroom, fully clothed, much to Finn's liking. "Radiohead recently ventured into the world of two drummers. Leaving Lima could blaze that same trail. But we'd have an advantage. Our drummers are brothers, not only brothers but twin brothers."

"Why would that make a difference?" Finn asks and Gunnar nods at the tiny girl.

"Sibling harmony is a musical term that refers to the tight - almost inseparable - vocal harmonies generated by members of the same family. And that vocal unity often holds up even when rifts appear in family relationships. Their vibratos are often similar. And the blend of voices sets up overtones and creates harmonies that are intriguing. It is a pleasing and warm sound. The Everly Brothers are good examples. And I know you're both going to say that you didn't grow up together. That doesn't matter. The Everly Brothers were separated for long periods but when they came back together their voices blended still."

Finn and Gunnar sat there and looked at Rachel with shock and awe. "Have you been researching this?" Finn asks his girl.

"In my music theory class, we were learning about harmony and it came up. I'm surprised it hasn't come up in your class Gunnar. You have Ms. Thibodaux for music theory right?" Rachel asks Gunnar.

"Yes, but it hasn't come up. It sounds interesting. But what would your other band mates think?" Gunnar asks.

"They pretty much do whatever Rachel says. It's easier that way." Finn says out loud. Closing his eyes when he realizes it. "Shit." Gunnar laughing at his brother.

"FINN! They do not. Don't make it sound like I'm a tyrant." Rachel huffs

"I'm sorry baby." Finn tries to tickle her, but she rushes out of the living room wanting to be mad at him for a little while longer.

"Think about it Gunnar. I think you might be becoming my favorite Hudson." She says sticking her tongue out at Finn.

"BABE, I said I was sorry." Finn pleads while his brother continues laughing at him. Blaine and Kurt walk in surveying the scene.

"What is my brother being punished for this time Gunnar." Kurt asks shaking Gunnar's hand as Finn gives chase behind Rachel.

"Foot in the mouth disease." Gunnar howling still. Blaine starts laughing and Kurt shakes his head.

"What are you doing her Gun?" Blaine asks his step brother.

Gunnar's laughs fade away and he puts his head down. Blaine knows what's coming so he puts a hand on Gunnar's shoulder. "It's alright. You'll get through this. I know she's my best friend, but she's in the wrong. I'm on your side on this one."

Gunnar looks up at his step brother "Did you know? Did you?" his voice getting louder. "Blaine tell me you didn't know, please" pleading for the truth.

"No, I didn't know. I suspected, but I didn't confront her." Blaine explains.

"Whatever, it's over and I'm done. She's moving to the dorm in the morning and Finn said I could crash here tonight." Gunnar tells Blaine and Kurt.

Rachel and Finn walk back into the living room hands intertwined. "You can stay as long as you need. We called a band meeting tonight to discuss our proposal." Rachel says winking supportively to Gunnar.


About a half an hour later Puck, Sam and Artie have joined the Hudmelberrys and Huderson Brothers at the apartment in Greenwich.

"Puckzilla in the house. There better be food Berry not that rabbit shit you're always trying to make us eat." Puck yells coming through the door.

"Shut it Puckerman. It's healthy. But no, I had two carnivores I had to feed so pizza it is. Should be here shortly, now get in here, shut up and sit down."

After Puck greets everyone. Rachel stays standing to address the boys in the room.

"We want Gunnar and Blaine to join the band." Always to the point Finn thought.

"Why would we want that?" Sam says not being mean genuinely curious.

"Well, things in their band are not working out and since Gunnar is Finn's Brother it makes sense." She argues.

"Kurt already plays keyboard, what would Blaine do?" Artie says.

"Well, yes I play keyboard, I'm not as good as Blaine. I'd step away from the keyboard and sing back up and the occasional lead just like before." Kurt tells the rest of them.

"Two drummers though." Puck hesitantly states.

"Two drummers would rock. Radiohead has two. We could too." Finn says enthusiastically.

"I'm down. As long as they can be ready. Where's that pizza." Puck gives his permission.

"I okay with it." Arties agrees

"If that's what you want, I'm good too." Sam smiles "Pizza!"

"Boys!" Rachel shrugs and leaves for the kitchen.

Finn leans over to Gunnar "See I told you, they do what she says." Gunnar smiles because he could see what Finn could not.

"I heard that Finn!" Rachel screeches. The guys laughing at Finn once again.


After much negotiating on Rachel's part the organizers of the contest agreed to let Leaving Lima restructure their band.

Today was the big day. They had to get through four band to be in the finals and with the set list they have there was no doubt they'd be in the finals.

The first two bands went on and were good. The spot that Crossing Coldwater should have performed in wasn't filled. After Blaine and Gunnar quit Manny and Mike were so angry with Taylor and Kaya they quit. Manny decided to focus on his studying and Mike was focusing solely on his dancing.

It was time to go on. The first song they'd be doing was a Radiohead cover. Homage to the two drummer band and a great way to introduce the fans to Gunnar and Blaine.

"Break a leg." Rachel tells Finn

"I love you too, baby." Finn replies. The rest of the band enters the stage and the crowd goes wild. They have pick up quite the fan base since entering this contest.

Gunnar starts the song Creep by Radiohead

When you were here before,
Couldn't look you in the eye,
You're just like an angel,
Your skin makes me cry;

Finn jumps in:

You float like a feather,
In a beautiful world,
I wish I was special,
You're so fuckin' special;

Finn and Gunnar

But I'm a creep,
I'm a weirdo,
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here;
The brother continue with the song blending perfectly and seamlessly. The song comes to an end with thunderous applause. The brothers and the rest know what just happened was special.

Their Original is a song written by Finn for him and Rachel to Sing:

Finn begins

We didn't care if people stared
we'd make out in a crowd somewhere
somebody'd tell us to get a room
It's hard to believe that was me and you

Now we keep saying that we're okay
but I don't want to settle for good, not great
I miss the way that it felt back then
I wanna feel that way again

Been so long, bet you forget
the way I used to kiss your neck

Rachel harmonizes then takes over the lead.
Remind me, remind me

So on fire, so in love
Way back when we couldn't get enough
remind me, and remind me

Remember the airport, dropping me off
We were kissing goodbye and we couldn't stop
And I felt bad 'cause you missed your flight
but that meant we had one more night

Finn and Rachel are singing on stage and it's like the whole world stops for them. Gunnar notices and is kind of envious that he didn't, couldn't have that with Kaya. He continues to beat the drums to the original song his brother wrote.

Do you remember how it used to be?
We'd turn out the lights and we didn't just sleep
Remind me, baby, remind me

Oh, so on fire, so in love
that look in your eyes that I miss so much
Remind me, baby, remind me

I wanna feel that way
Yeah, I wanna hold you close
Oh, if you still love me
don't just assume I know

Oh baby, remind me
Remind me

The song continued until the end and the crowd roared. Leaving Lima left the stage hot and sweaty but confident that they had just secured their spot in the finals. The group went back to the green room to hydrate and wait the final two performances out. The judges would take time to reach a decision.

They were right they had secured their place in the final round. Manny and Mike were there to cheer their friends in their new band. The Final Round would be in two days and the band would be playing four tunes all originals. They had to practice, they'd do two songs Gunnar wrote and two songs Finn and Rachel wrote. Sure way to that recording demo.


"Come on guys these are not that difficult to learn." Rachel shouts.

"Who died and made you queen, because I didn't get a vote." Kurt sarcastically responds to his best friend.

"Kurt, come on man. Don't piss her off even more." Finn sneers at his brother.

"It's useless to do this until Puckerman gets his dick out of Santana." Sam says.

Gunnar rolls his eyes. These people are crazy, but over the last couple of weeks they have become part of Gunnar's family.

"Puckarone has made it. Practice can commence." Puck screeches.

"DO you even know what commence means?" Blaine scoffs

"Hold it bowtie, he does and I ain't afraid to go all Lima heights on your sorry ass for speaking to my man that way." Santana says following after Puck.

"Santana shut up, you shouldn't be here anyway and Puck you're late again. I can and will replace you. Let's get this shit storm rolling I got other things I want to be doing right now!" Finn yells in exasperation.

"More like doing Berry." Puck whisper to Santana

"I swear to God Puck I will knock you the fuck out. PRACTICE NOW!" Finn has had it with Puck and his shit.

"We've got two days until the finals we need to get these four songs down." Rachel pleads with the guys.

"Let's do this." Gunnar says and the rest follow suit.


The Final Round has arrived and the gang is extremely nervous.

"We got this." Rachel encourages her band mates. "The two songs Gunnar wrote are too good not to win"

"Thanks Rachel, your and Finn's songs are winners too." Gunnar says

"They are right, webare here let's go into this with some positive mojo." Mercedes, one of the back ground vocalist says.

"Leaving Lima on three." Finn says and they bring their hands together and on three yell Leaving Lima.

Gunnar starts

Go to sleep, go to sleep, go to sleep,
You need it more than me
The season changed, but we're the same,
And where we were standing
There's a better view,
There's a better view!
Tell me, tell where you've been?
Where you travelled who are your friends,
You don't need a place to go
Just to call your home!

Chorus:
There's a better view,
There's a better view,
From where we are!
A better view from where we are,
A better view!

They kill this first song and instead of Gunnar getting behind the kit just yet they play his second song with him out front, Rachel singing back ground and harmony.

"For our next song we'd like to sing Sea Sick, I wrote this song when I was sixteen, I hope you like it." Gunnar talks to the crowd then belts out his song.

Some nice air kept me up all night in bed
My eyes are closed but I can see it
Something nicer that shook the ground where I'm standing
All the rights words that she said, she said

Sea sick this better be ocean
Stay close come this far
Sea sick this better be ocean
Stay close

Nicer for many things all start running
Facing my own fears one more time
Some nicer made me feel humor with me
All the hours that she said, she say

Sea sick this better be ocean
Stay close come this far

Sea sick this better be ocean
Stay close
Sea sick, oh, hold your breath
Hold your breath
Sea sick this better be ocean
Stay close come this far
Sea sick this better be ocean
Stay close
Sea sick this better be ocean
Stay close come this far
Sea sick this better be ocean
Stay close come this far
Sea sick this better be ocean
Stay close come this far
Sea sick this better be ocean
Stay close.

Gunnar settles behind his kit to begin the next two songs. Rachel steps up to the mike "Hello New York City! How we doing tonight?" She screams. "Enjoy our next song it called Gone tonight." she starts to sing.

How did I get hung-over without a drink
Why are my eyes so bloodshot
Why do they sting
Sometimes we get so angry
It just keeps coming
How do we stop
Wanna stop
Wanna stop
Oh, we clawed and we fall yeah we doubted along the way
We've been misunderstood
Yeah, it hurts with this fear and pain

But it's gone tonight
Nothing in the way
Go forward, forward
Nothing not to say
It's our world, our world
Trouble's gone tonight
Right under the bridge like water, water
Promising to love you harder, harder, harder

The crowd is loving the song and it's just fueling her performance. Rachel has to hold back tears at the applause given to her when the song ends.

For our last song I'd like to invite our devastatingly handsome drummer, also my boyfriend out from behind the kit to help me with our last song." Finn makes his way from behind the kit. Rachel takes this opportunity to introduce the band.

"While Finn gets a drink and ready for our duet, why don't we meet the fellas?" Rachel eggs the crowd on. Girls start screaming.

"Okay ladies, on lead guitar we have Noah Puckerman, or PUCK!" Puck hits a rift.

"On bass is Artie Abrams." Artie bows with a hit of the bass

"Keyboards we have Blaine Anderson." The girls go nuts. "Sorry ladies that Bowtie is taken." Rachel says

"Acoustic Guitar we have trouty mouth Sam Evans." Sam lifts up his shirt showing his abs. "NO Carpool lane to sexy." he says into the mike and the girls in the crowd are trying to get to the stage.

"Backing me up are Mercedes Jones and Tina Cohen Chang." The crowd yells and the girls get some cat calls from the men in the club.

"Also on back ground and occasionally lead Kurt Hummel." Kurt curtsey and the crowd eats it up.

"I'm lead singer Rachel Berry." She get a thunderous applause. "Thank you, thank you. Now the drinks are good here but you are not seeing double on our dual drums we have one of our twins, Gunnar Hudson, stand up Gun." Rachel tells him. Gunnar bows and blushes at the overwhelming applause. Just as that dies down Finn appears on the left of the stage to take his spot for the final number.

"And last by never least is Finn Hudson our other drummer, twin and my duet partner." the crowd is beside itself, girls are screaming and Finn is blushing.

"Thank you, I'd like to sing this next song with my insanely talented girlfriend Rachel." Finn says into the mike. The opening notes to their next song "Just a Fool"

(Rachel)
Uhhh. Yeahhhh.
Another shot of whiskey please bartender.
Keep it coming till I don't remember at all,
How bad it hurts when you're gone (na na na na)

Turn the music up a little bit louder
Just gotta get past the midnight hour (uh uh)
Maybe tomorrow it won't
Be
This
Hard
Who am I kidding?
I know what I'm missing.

Ohhhh.
I had my heart set on you
But nothing else hurts like you do.
Who knew that love was so cruel? (Yeah yeah yeah)
And I...
Waited and waited so long
For someone who'll never come home
It's my fault to think you'll be true (Yeah yeah)
I'm just a fool (Yeah).

(Finn)
I said that I don't care
I'd walk away, whatever
And I tell myself we were bad together. (Uh uh)
But that's just me trying to move on
With
Out
You

(Together)
But who am I kidding
I know what I'm missing
ohhh
I had my heart set on you
But nothing else hurts like you do
Who knew that love was so cruel? (Christina: Yeah yeah yeah)
And I
Waited and waited so long
For someone who'll never come home
It's my fault to think you'll be true (Christina: Yeah yeah)

(Finn)
I'm just a fool.
For holding on to something that
Is never ever gonna come back
I can't accept that it's lost.

(Rachel)
I should have let it go
Held my tongue
Kept my big mouth shut
'Cause now everything is just wrong, (Together: wrong, wrong...)

(Together)
I'm just a fool (Christina: A fool for you)
I'm just a fool.

I ... I had my heart set on you
But nothing else hurts like you do
Who knew that love was so cruel? (Yeah yeah yeah)
And I
Waited and waited so long
For someone who'll never come home
It's my fault to think you'll be true (Christina: Yeah yeah)
I'm just a fool (Christina: oh yeahhh)

I'm just a fool

I'm just a fool

It's my fault to think you'll be true (Yeah yeah ... yeah)

I'm just a fool.

Finn and Rachel hold the last note and you could hardly hear it because the audience was so loud. The band came off stage elated. They were sure they would be getting the recording demo.

Later that evening the organizers of the event took to the stage.

"The winners of a Sony music recording demo are Leaving Lima." he says.

They are so happy. They have until after the winter break to come up with a six song EP to record for their demo. If Sony likes it, they will sign them and record a twelve song LP and go on tour. Now they could go home for Christmas spend it with their families and get to know each other better.

Gunnar and Blaine would be going to Lima with Finn, Rachel and Kurt. Gunnar would spend two weeks with Carole and then Finn would travel back to Missouri with Gunnar to spend two weeks with Chris. Then they'd all fly back to New York for their recording session.

"Best Christmas Ever." Finn whispers to Rachel late one night, tangled in the sheets of his teenage boy bed.

Rachel smiles and snuggles closer to Finn.


Please Read and Review and if you like this story please tell your friends or read my other two multi-chapter fictions.

I know it kind of sucks but my muse for this story has failed me. I think It will be about another two chapters. I'm running out of plot other than Finn and Rachel Naked. But Finn naked is probably better than nothing.
