Chapter 10 Los Angeles

"Right everyone off the bus!" Mr Schuester shouted down the bus and up the stairs. "Don't leave anything behind, we'll be getting a different bus on the way home, so anything left you'll probably never see again." Mr Schue said with a smirk, knowing he has succeeded in scaring them all when everyone on the bus checks and double checks everywhere for any lost possessions.

Soon everyone was off the bus and standing in their respective choirs, Mr Smyth, The Warblers chaperone was giving them a speech about good behaviour in the hotel, Mr Schuester was doing the same, adding that no pillow fights were aloud, as he didn't want a repeat of last time.

The two choirs headed towards their hotel 'The Lotus Lodge'. A tall skyscraper like building with twenty floors. A large fountain stood outside the magnificent building pouring water from five spouts at the base ad from the very top where a mermaid sat with Lotus flowers in her hair. This was where all show choirs from the competition were staying, The Lotus Lodge was one of Los Angeles' highest rated hotels, how they convinced to let at least twenty show choirs most full of teenagers stay here for three days was beyond Kurt.

"This is where I'm coming for my 21st birthday!" Rachel proclaimed clapping her hands and doing a little spin like a three year old in Disney land.

"Honestly Rachel!" Kurt said while laughing at his best friend who turned and gave him a huge grin before she continued to prance towards the hotel doors.

Blaine caught up with Kurt and took his hand, smiling at each other they walked into the lobby, a large room with black/silver marble floors and the same black/silver marble on the walls, though there was one patch of wall behind the front desk which was a waterfall, (yes like the one in HSM 2). There were several black leather couches all over the room and a few tables with shiny plastic surfaces.

"Welcome to The Lotus Lodge!" Said a man at the front desk, his name tag told everyone that his name was Flynn R. "How may I help you? Are you guys the last two choirs? Let me see." He paused too take a look at his clipboard. "The Warblers and The New Directions correct?" He asked with a smile to challenge Blaine's.

"That's us." Mr Smyth said in his thick English accent.

"Okay I'll just get you checked in," He said typing something into the computer. "Mr Schuester you have three rooms reserved?" Mr Schue nodded it was all the school could afford unfortunately.

"Yeah I'm going divide them, boys and girls, between the two biggest rooms and I'll take the smallest one."

"That's fine sir, let me get your room keys." Flynn walked to a long rack of keys a few steps behind him and pulled off the keys marked 13A, 13B and 14A. "13A and 13B are adjoining rooms and yours 14A is directly across the hall." Flynn finished explaining and handed Mr Schuester the keys.

"Thanks. Guys! Split up, boys and girls!"

The New Directions immediately divided into their gender groups, Kurt though desperately wanting to join the girls moved to the boys side. Finn smiled at him sympathetically and patted his head good naturedly only to be swatted away and hissed at by a now irritated Kurt, Finn sometimes forgot that no one (with exceptions to Blaine) touched Kurt's hair.

The Warblers appeared a few moments later with their room keys, having a bigger budget than McKinley they were three to a room.

"Which room are you?" Blaine asked sneaking up behind Kurt and wrapping his arms around Kurt's waist.

"13B, you?"

"15A, seems like I'm just down the hall, this I like." Kurt laughed at his boyfriends dopey grin and shooed him away as Mr Schue launched into another chorus of 'behave your selves'.

"Guys, again. No. Pillow. Fights this year I don't" Mr Schue was cut off by a chorus of "We know"s and "You already told us!". "I know, I know I just wanted to be clear. Okay now go find your rooms, we're on floor 15."

Kurt couldn't help but run with the rest of them towards the lift, he would later deny that he was even remotely excited and say that he got dragged into it.

~oOo~

Everyone was unpacked and sitting in their rooms, looking out the window or in Puck's case being pulled back in the window. He, for some crazy reason, thought that hanging out of the window and shouting 'We're gonna win!' at passers by was a good idea.

"Noah what age are you?" Kurt asked walking out of the bathroom, finally satisfied with the way his products were set up. Kurt had walked in just as Finn and Sam had pulled Puck back in.

"What gender are you Hummel? I'm certain that even the Cougars I work for don't have that many brands of moisturiser." Puck said sending Finn a glare as he hit him while giving him a 'Don't-talk-to-my-brother-like-that' look.

"Please I'm more of a man than you'll ever be Puckerman."

"It's probably true man." Sam said with a shrug.

"Sam!" Puck said in disbelief.

"What? I said probably!"

"Okay I'm going now, no one touch my stuff, and watch Artie with the kettle." Kurt told them as Artie almost spilt water all over him self. Mike rushed to take the kettle off the boy giving Kurt a smile of reassurance.

Kurt sighed watching as Finn took the kettle off of Mike and spilt the water on the table before closing the door.

Kurt walked next door to room 13A and knocked on the door, he could hear laughter from inside and there was some fumbling before the door opened to reveal a dishevelled Quinn.

"Hi Kurt," She said breezily. "I figured it wouldn't be long until you showed up."

Kurt took in the girl's appearance and deciding against asking he entered the room.

"KURT!" Kurt was attacked by a still hyper blonde girl.

"Hey Brit, still not worked off those red vines I see." He said laughing.

"Kurt! We were just about to start Truth or Dare you wanna join in?" Rachel asked coming out of the bathroom, she looked a bit pale.

"Sure, Rach are you okay? You don't look very well." Kurt replied walking over and placing his hand on the girls forehead, she didn't feel abnormally warm.

"Yeah I'm fine, come on lets play!" She said sitting down next to Brittany on the bed.

Kurt took a seat beside Mercedes and Quinn, Quinn leaned over and whispered in Kurt's ear. "We were having a tickle fight and the next minute she shot off into the bathroom, I'm pretty sure she was sick."

Kurt was suspicious now, did Rachel have a bug? Or was it something else? "Now that you mention it she used my bathroom before we left and she was in there for about five minutes. Do you think she's ill?"

"Maybe, best to just leave it right now though, she would deny it anyway." Kurt nodded at Quinn they would ask later, besides he should probably ask Finn if he's noticed anything odd lately.

Santana went first asking Quinn, "Truth or Dare Quinners?" Quinn gave her a look of disbelief.

"Quinners? * Sigh * fine Truth."

"What is the strangest dream you have ever had?"

Quinn thought for a second, "Oh I know, it was while I was pregnant, so you know weird dreams are expected. So I was in my room and it was snowing outside and a sloth climbed up on the window ledge and I started talking to it and I talked back! A talking sloth!"

Rachel seemed to think this was particularly hilarious and actually ended up on the floor because she thought it was that funny, everyone just gave her a weird look as Brittany helped her back up onto the bed.

Santana simply brushed her hysterics off. "Well that was lame. Kay Fabray your shot to ask."

"Okay, Kurt Truth Or Dare?"

Kurt was feeling pretty fear less today so he chose Dare. "Hmm..Oh! You need to kiss the next person that walks in the door." Quinn said with a laugh.

"Fine, but if Mr Schue walks in then you need to explain to him why I kissed him. Wait is it on the mouth or cheek?"

"If it's Blaine then mouth anyone else, cheek." Kurt nodded, he actually quite like this dare.

"Right now it's my turn, Rachel Truth or Dare?"

"Huh? Oh sorry I wasn't listening, em, truth?" She said hesitantly.

'This is my chance' Kurt thought 'I can ask what's going on.' so deciding against what he and Quinn had agreed on he asked. "What were you doing in the bathroom just there when I came in? And why?" She looked a little shocked.

Rachel suddenly seemed very interested in the ground. "Em, * cough * Well.."

AN: Ah cliffhanger! Can you guys guess what's going on?
