Prompt: Dantana beating Kurtchel at a board game
Hummelberry was the reigning champion in their Scrabble tournament.
Santana had never once beaten either of them.
That was going to change, though.
Santana had brought home a Scrabble goddess.
"So," Dani asked once the board was set up in front of the four of them. "We'll be doing this in teams?"
They were sat in the middle of the apartment's cramped living room. They had moved the furniture around to make room for them. Santana had suggested they use the stage she set up for their band practice, but Rachel insisted that it was sacred ground. Only good music could be done there, not mindless shouting in Spanish because she beat her at Scrabble.
Kurt nodded as he positioned himself beside the diva. "You and Santana, and me and Rachel."
"You do know that you're going to lose." Santana's grin was blinding.
Rachel's eyes just burned with competitive ferocity. "You say that every time, Santana, and yet you always end up crying and we have to buy ice cream and watch Tangled for you to calm down."
Santana jaw hung open as she glared at Rachel. "I do not."
"Yes, you do. Kurt has video evidence of one occurrence." Rachel answered with a challenging smirk. If there was one thing she learned while living with Santana, that was it.
Santana was not amused when Kurt whipped out his phone and showed said video to her girlfriend. "Are we doing this or not?" she asked petulantly with her arms crossed over her chest.
Dani, who had laughed at her girlfriends antics on the video shown to her, nudged the Latina and placed a chaste kiss on her cheeks. "Don't pout, San. We'll show them who's boss, hmm?" She asked as she snuggled the crook of Santana's neck.
Rachel and Kurt complained about their sweetness rotting their teeth, but neither could hide their smile when Santana visibly relaxed and kissed the top of Dani's hair. Dani was doing good for their friend and they loved her for it.
"Alright! Let's get this show on the road," Santana whooped with excitement. Rachel rolled her eyes. She was already prepared to buy ice cream and had their Tangled DVD at the ready.

Rachel could not believe her eyes.
Dani and Santana were leading by 267 points.
Two hundred and sixty-seven!
Rachel was sure her face was showing just how aghast she was at the score.
When Rachel put down 'abnegate', Dani would counter with 'electroencephalograph'.
When Kurt answered with a 'sanative', Dani would put down 'vexillology'.
And when Rachel was sure that nothing could beat her 'malfeasance', Dani topped it off with 'nasopharyngeal'.
Santana was radiating pride and had a shit-eating grin plastered permanently on her face. Rachel wasn't normally a violent person, but she wanted to slap that smile from Santana's lips. She was a sore loser, but this… This was total annihilation.
Kurt raised his hands up in defeat. "So I guess we're gonna have vegan ice cream today and a Lion King marathon?"
