They pulled into the condo driveway.
"What time is it?" Tina asked loudly.
"5:37" Shelby answered.
"I'm hungry" Puck said. A loud rumble was heard. "See?"
They laughed.
"Well, how about I order us all some pizza?" Will said.
"Yum!" Finn said, with two thumbs up.
"Can you maybe get pizza that isn't molded in grease?" Kurt asked.
"Kurt, it's pizza! It's either greasy or it's not baked yet!" Artie said.
"I'll ask them to go easy on the grease, okay?" Will said, smiling at Kurt.
"Thank you."
They all got out of the bus. Artie was lowered down.
"Your condo or ours?" Mike asked the girls casually.
"Umm, yours! But...we have to drop off our stuff, first" Rachel said quickly, holding up her shopping bags.
"Okay" Mike said. The genders parted and went to their condos.
"Rachel, when you lie, it's totally obvious" Mercedes hissed in her ear as they walked away.
"Sorry" Rachel bowed her head. "But they are mostly too dumb to notice."
"And we are lucky because of that" Mercedes sighed. The girls got inside their condo, and right away, Rachel got into leader mode.
"Okay gals. Listen up! We have to perfectly execute this prank plan!" Rachel shouted.
"I agree. Being stuck in two small spaces for an extended period of time makes me want payback, even if they aren't to blame for my second trapping" Santana said, with a wicked grin.
"Hear, hear!" Sugar clapped enthusiastically.
"Quinn, what did you get?" Rachel said, eyeing the bags.
Quinn smiled proudly and rummaged through the bags, pulling out the twenty bags.
"Woah!" Mercedes smiled, looking at the packages.
"Good job, Quinn" Tina nodded to her.
"Okay, so we have everything, we just have to plan how to set it up. I really want this plan to work!" Santana said.
"Me too" Mercedes nodded.
Rachel ran off to the misfit closet and came back with the first item.
"Mercedes, you're in charge of this. Go to the bathroom at one point to set it, then put it in your bag, then 'forget' your bag in the main room, go back to get it and actually set this up" Rachel instructed.
"And hide it a bit too, so they'll have a hard time finding it" Quinn said.
"Oooh, smart!" Brittany said. "This will be the best prank ever!"
"The best part is, they won't see part two coming!" Tina smiled evilly.
"How are we going to set up all these?" Sugar asked, holding up two of the twenty packages that Quinn had purchased.
"And how are we going to make sure that all the boys are going to be there to open it?" Mercedes asked, looking at Rachel.
"We could sneak over and set it up?" Tina suggested.
"How are we suppose to 'causally' bring twenty bags over, too?" Mercedes added.
"I say we sneak in...that way we can bring the bags" Santana said.
"But what if we can't get it? Or what if they hear us?" Quinn asked.
"How about this? We bring the bags and because the boy's don't greet us at the door, we just leave them in the kitchen. Then, Santana and I will find an excuse to leave and we'll quickly set it up" Rachel said, thinking it through.
"Good plan, but one thing's wrong" Tina said.
"What?" Rachel frowned a bit.
"If you and Santana go, the boys will totally know something's up. You two are normally at each other's throats so if you both leave in a happy mood, they'll know it's fake" Tina said with a shrug.
"I agree with Tina" Quinn said. "It's gotta be believable."
"Fine, fine. Mercedes, you come with me instead" Rachel said, looking at her.
"Sure" Mercedes nodded.
"What'll be your excuse? We should know so we accidentally mess it up" Sugar asked.
"Ummm" Mercedes hummed as she thought.
"I could spill something on myself and need to change?" Rachel suggested
"Rory did that the other day. And also, why would Mercedes come?" Quinn pointed out.
"True" Rachel sighed.
"Oh, Rachel could injure herself and be bleeding and have to get band aids?" Santana suggested.
"I am not willing to physically inflict pain on myself!" Rachel gasped.
"Hear me out. Just trip or something, and use ketchup to make blood" Santana said.
"What about me?" Mercedes asked.
"You could trip her or push her or something accidentally, then feel so bad for doing so and go with her to get band aids" Santana said. "But you'll have to be really convincing, Mercedes, because Finn will want to help her."
"Don't worry, I got it" Mercedes smiled.
"Okay, we have a plan!" Brittany clapped.
"Now to execute it perfectly..." Quinn muttered. She'd never admit it, but she didn't think they could pull it off. There were too many things that could to wrong or interfere with it. Plus, the boys were cunning. They may figure it out first.
Rachel came back with a tiny plastic bag of ketchup.
"This will be enough to be believable but not enough to go to the hospital or something" Rachel said. "And as for Mercedes' previous question as to how to get all the boys to be there for part two, I think we should get Tina or Sugar to call them tomorrow morning and get them to open it. You could be all 'there is something crazy in there' so they'll all be curious."
"Good idea" Tina nodded, happy to be a part of it.
"Okay. Come one girls, we have to pull off this prank!" Sugar said.
The girls cheered and got ready to go.
"Holy cow, it's freezing in here!" Sam said as the boys got inside their condo.
"Oh my gosh, what happened?" Finn asked. "Why is it so cold?"
"The AC must have broke" Kurt said, shivering.
"I'll get Mr. Schue" Mike said. He ran out of the building. Suddenly, the outside felt to much hotter, even though rain still lightly fell.
Mike knocked on the door, which was immediately opened by Shelby.
"Hello, Mike" Shelby said.
"Um, there's a problem. Our condo is freezing" Mike stammered.
"Really?" Shelby said, titling her head. "Well, I'll send Mr. Schuestser over." Shelby disappeared for a moment and re-appeared with the curly-haired man.
"I hear your condo is cold?" Will said to Mike.
"Freezing" Mike confirmed.
Will put on his shoes. "Well, let's check it out."
Mike led him back to the condo.
"Woah, it is a bit chilly" Will chuckled as he walked inside the boys' condo.
"Oh, Mr. Schue, you're here!" Rory said, when he saw him.
Will waved and walked to the control panel for the AC. Will pressed the buttons, then frowned.
"I can't get this working" Will muttered.
"Oh, no" Artie said. "We'll freeze to our death!"
"Not to worry, I'll call the landlord and get the number for the AC company" Will said. "Put on some sweaters or something and just chill out...get it? Chill out? 'Cause it's cold? Chill?" Will laughed.
The boys looked at each other then faked a laugh.
"Good one, Mr. Schue!" Sam chuckled.
"Hilar" Artie said, laughing.
"Okay, well I'll go call, and I'll give you an update in a while" Will said, walking down the stairs. "Bye!"
"Bye" Finn called, hearing the door slam shut.
"I'm off to find a sweater" Puck shivered. "Or three."
"Do we knock?" Quinn asked, standing outside the boys' condo.
"No. We have to just walk in to we can drop off this stuff" Santana said, holding a bunch of packages.
"Oh, yeah" Quinn nodded. Tina opened the door.
"Hello!" Tina called to the boys.
"Hey" was Sam's muffled response from upstairs in the large room.
Tina cautiously walked up the stairs, making sure the coast was clear. When she saw no boys, she signaled for the girls to come up. They hurried up and hid the bags behind the armchair.
"Is it just me, or is it really cold in here?" Mercedes asked.
"It's like an igloo" Brittany smiled.
"Oh, how about instead of the fake fall, Mercedes and I volunteer to get sweaters for all of us?" Rachel whispered to the girls.
"Okay, good idea" Tina nodded as they walked into the main room where all the boys lay.
"Hello" Blaine greeted them.
"What's up with the coldness?" Sugar asked.
"Dunno. Air Conditioning is stuck" Sam shrugged.
"On full blast?" Quinn demanded.
"I guess so" Finn said smiling.
"Come on, sit down" Mike said, opening his arms for Tina, as she snuggled next to him.
"Well, the coldness is good for cuddling" Tina said as Mike's arms closed around her.
"Yeah, Rachel, hint hint" Finn gave a cheeky smile. Rachel rolled her eyes but smiled and sat next to him anyways. He put his arm around her and she rested her head on his chest.
Mercedes went and sat in Sam's arms. Also Santana and Brittany settled down together in a small chair.
Quinn looked at Sugar with an eye roll, then glared at everybody else.
"Thank you for making single ladies like Sugar and I feel totally depressed as you all snuggle up to each other" Quinn said, with her hands on her hips. She was partly joking, but she did feel sorta lonely as she watched the couples.
"Quinn, I'm sorry" Tina said honestly.
Quinn looked at the sorry in Tina's eyes. It wasn't her fault, but she still felt bad for her friend.
"It's okay" Quinn assured Tina.
"You ladies are more than welcome to sit with the Puckzilla" Puck smirked. He patted his knees. "Look, I got a knee for each of you!"
Quinn rolled her eyes in disgust at Puck. Instead she sat on the couch next to Rory and Artie. Sugar, however, smiled coyly and sat with Puck.
"What are we going to watch?" Kurt asked.
Sam flipped through the channels. "The Lightning Thief?"
"Yes!" Tina and several girls exclaimed.
"I've never heard of it" Finn said.
"You'll like it" Mercedes said. Sam set the remote down as the movie played.
"So hot" Sugar said, staring at the main actor on the screen.
"Pizza's here!" Beiste called, opening the boys' condo door.
"Yum!" They all stood up.
"Woah, it is cold in here" Beiste said walking in the room and setting the pizza down on the table.
"Yeah. Any news yet?" Finn asked, opening a box.
"Yeah, Mr. Schue called and he said he'll be over in the next few hours" Beiste said.
They all took pizza slices from the box.
"Great" Mike said, his mouth full.
"So, Coach, how do you like Florida?" Rachel asked sweetly.
"I like it. It's really warm, which I like" Beiste smiled. "But I burn easily, so I need lots of sunscreen!"
"I know what you mean. I burn easily too" Sugar said. "But I still look super hot with a tan."
Beiste chuckled. "Well, enjoy your pizza. And also, Mr. Schuester told me to tell you that we'll be waking you all up earlier so we can be ready to go to Orlando. Well, Bye!"
"Bye, okay and thanks Coach!" Artie waved as Beiste walked out of the room.
"Is the pizza to your standards, Kurt?" Mercedes asked with a smirk.
"Not entirely. But the grease is reduced" Kurt said, nibbling his slice of pizza.
Mercedes laughed.
Within a matter of fifteen minutes, all the pizza was devoured.
"What? No more?" Santana asked, going for another slice, but only found the bottom of the grease stained cardboard box.
"Nope. I ate the last piece" Rory said, holding up his half eaten slice.
"Darn" Santana frowned.
"I'm cold" Rachel announced loudly.
"Same" Quinn nodded, catching on.
"Do you want to wear one of my sweaters?" Finn asked his girlfriend.
"I...uh..." Rachel stammered.
"Do you have an extra sweater for me too? Santana asked Finn.
"And me?" Sugar asked.
"I think I only brought like two" Finn said.
"You know what? Don't worry about it. I'll just hop over to our condo and grab everyone's sweaters" Rachel said cheerily.
"Do you know where mine is?" Quinn asked Rachel.
"I do" Mercedes said, standing up. "I'll come with you, Rach."
"Okay" Rachel shrugged.
"Bye" Tina waved to them, trying to sound casual.
"I'll come too!" Santana said, jumping up. Everyone gave her an odd look. "My sweater is in a place you'll never guess, so I'll just get it myself."
"S-sure" Rachel nodded dumbly, trying to understand why Santana decided to come.
Santana joined Mercedes as Rachel as they left the room.
"What's going on?" Mercedes hissed quietly to Santana.
"Well, I want to help, so I'll go get the sweaters while you two the job" Santana said. "That way, it'll be less suspicious when you two take a long time to get seven sweaters."
"Okay, great!" Rachel whispered to Santana.
Mercedes and Rachel ran to get their hidden supplies while Santana noisily ran down the stairs.
Quietly, but efficiently, Rachel and Mercedes ripped open the packages. Rachel cleared out the cupboard quietly and very, very carefully, Mercedes put the small plastic items in the cupboard. After a while, it was hard to get more and more in without them falling out, but they managed. Once, one fell and landed on the floor with a 'clink'. Rachel quickly picked it up, muttering swear words under her breath.
Finally, the cupboard was loaded and set. Mercedes and Rachel smiled proudly. Then Rachel noticed the pile of plastic wrap lying on the floor. She, without speaking, motioned to Mercedes, silently asking her what they should do to dispose of them. Mercedes frowned in thought, then pointed to the garbage can. Rachel shook her head. Time was running out. Rachel, as quietly as possible when dealing with noisy wrapping, scooped them up and put them back in the hiding spot.
"We'll deal with them later" Rachel quietly muttered to Mercedes.
Then the two girls tip-toed to the top of the stairs. They decided to slide down the banister, to prevent any sounds if they walked.
Sliding was fun, but Rachel's arm accidentally hit the wall as she went down.
Mercedes tried to open the door quietly, holding her breath as it gently creaked. They left the door open and ran outside, meeting Santana on the sidewalk. She carried a large multi-coloured pile of sweaters.
"Took you long enough" Santana said, handing some sweaters to them.
"Sorry, you try stuffing those things in a freaking cupboard without making an sounds" Mercedes said.
"Whatever" Santana rolled her eyes. "Now talk and laugh along as if we've been together the whole time."
"Okay" Rachel said, as they entered the house.
"Then my brother was like 'are you colourblind?' and so I pushed him" Mercedes said randomly. Santana and Rachel laughed as if it was hilarious.
"And what did your mom say?" Rachel asked, still forcing a laugh.
"She screamed at me, because my brother's shoulder tilted the picture on the wall" Mercedes laughed. They walked into the room where their friends sat.
"Took you long enough" Sam said.
"Sorry, Quinn, your sweater took a while to find" Rachel said in a cheery tone.
"Uh, sorry" Quinn played along. "I should have warned you."
"So, Santana, where do you keep your sweaters?" Puck asked the girl.
"Uh...in...my pillowcase..." Santana said. "It's...comfier that way..." She stuttered, fumbling for a realistic answer, and ending up being quiet proud at herself.
"Oh, sweet" Puck said.
The girls put on their sweaters.
"Mmmm toasty warm" Sugar said, hugging herself.
"I'm bored" Artie moaned. They were just watching old music videos.
"Same" Finn agreed.
"We can play spin the bottle?" Rachel suggested, shifting in Finn's embrace.
"No!" Kurt and Blaine both yelled at the same time.
"We're not drunk, anyways" Sam said.
"True..." Rachel said quietly.
"Charades?" Rory suggested.
"No..." Sugar said, shaking her head.
"Honey, I Love You?" Tina suggested.
"I love you too" Mike smiled down at her.
"No, I mean the game!" Tina rolled her eyes.
"There's a game called Honey, I Love You?" Puck asked, in disbelief.
"Yes. What you do is, you say 'Honey, I love you, won't you please, please smile?' and the person, without smiling, has to say 'Honey, I love you, but I just can't smile'. If you smile, you're out" Tina explained slowly.
"How do you win?" Rachel asked.
"Whoever doesn't smile and can say it, wins" Tina said.
"I'll play!" Sam said.
"Yeah!" Rory nodded.
"So we all in?" Tina asked the group, looking around hopefully.
"Yes!"
"Okay!"
"I'm gonna win!"
"In your dreams, Puckerman!"
"Sure!"
"Yay!" Tina clapped.
"Wait, hold up!" Santana said. She looked at Tina. "What if someone else who's not involved says something funny and we smile? I don't wanna lose because Puck or Brittany say something funny."
"Well, if you are not in it at that moment, you can't do anything to distract the players" Tina said slowly. She glared at Puck. "Okay?"
"Why are you guys accusing me of stuff I haven't done?" Puck smirked.
"Of all of us here, you'd be most likely to do something like that" Quinn answered.
"Well, that may be true..." Puck said.
"See? He doesn't even try to deny it!" Rachel rolled her eyes.
"Whatever. Let's just play" Mercedes said.
"Who's gonna go first?" Quinn asked.
"We'll go in a circle but you can't ask the same person twice" Tina instructed.
"I'll go first!" Sam said. He looked around the room.
"Wait!" Rachel exclaimed. "Can the person who is asking make funny faces?"
"Yes" Tina nodded. "You can make funny faces, but no hand gestures."
"Okay" Rachel nodded.
"Okay...I pick Sugar" Sam said with a smile.
Sugar nodded. "Okay."
Sam cleared his throat. "Honey, I love you, won't you please, please smile?" He asked, while blinking fast and making goofy grin.
Sugar stared at him. "Honey, I love you, but I just can't smile." She said slowly.
Quinn clapped. "Good job, Sugar."
"Oh, and also, you must look at the person. You can't be looking off at the wall or something while they speak to you" Tina said.
"I pick Finn" Sugar said. "And Finn, when you lose, don't cry!"
"We'll see who cries" Finn said with a smirk.
"Honey, I love you, won't you please, please smile?" Sugar asked in a really high voice. She made a face as she spoke.
Finn almost smiled, but bit his lip to keep from doing so. "Honey, I love you, but I just can't smile."
"Aww" Sugar pouted.
"Puck" Finn said. As much as saying 'I love you' to a guy would be weird, he figured that Puck would be easiest to crack.
Finn put on his silly face and whispered in a sultry voice, "Honey, I love you, won't you please, please smile?"
At first, Puck's face remained straight, but once Finn said 'please' in a low, droning voice, he lost it. Puck burst out laughing.
"Yes!" Finn cheered at his accomplishment.
"Puck is out!" Santana said.
"I'm sorry" Puck said. "I tried, but Finn's voice was so..." Puck started laughing all over again.
"Finn, pick someone new" Santana said.
"Kurt" Finn said.
Kurt looked at him, an amused grin on his face. "Okay then." Kurt put on a straight face and prepared himself for Finn's words.
"Honey, I love you, won't you please please smile?" Finn asked in the same low and smooth voice.
Kurt blinked. "Honey, I love you, but I just can't smile" he said without a smile.
Finn frowned and swore. Kurt just smirked.
"Okay, Kurt, take your pick!" Quinn said.
"Oh, Rachel!" Kurt said in a sing song voice.
Rachel blushed and giggled.
"Come on, Rach. Focus" Finn said to her.
Rachel took a deep breath and let it out through pursed lips. "Okay. I am ready."
Kurt smiled and spoke in a raspy low voice. "Honey, I love you, won't you please, please smile?"
Rachel opened her mouth to speak, but then her face went red, as her withheld laughter came out.
Rachel actually rolled on the floor, in hysterics. Everyone else laughed too. Finally, Rachel sat up, wiping the tears from her eyes.
"You okay there?" Tina asked her.
"Yes, yes, I'm fine" Rachel said. She looked at Kurt. "That voice you used was so different from your normal voice. That's what killed me."
Kurt chuckled. "That was the idea."
"Okay, Kurt, pick again" Mercedes said.
"I pick you."
"Me?" Mercedes' eyes widened.
"Yup."
"Fine."
Kurt bared his teeth and made a hilarious face. Then he spoke in a lower tone. "Honey, I love you, won't you please, please smile?"
Mercedes began laughing before he had even finished speaking.
Kurt rolled his eyes. "Way to keep focus, Mercedes."
"Sorry!" Mercedes giggled. "Gosh, Kurt, you're good at this game."
Kurt smiled. "Sorry, I can't help but pull focus." Blaine chuckled and squeezed Kurt's hand that he was holding. Only he knew the true meaning behind Kurt's words.
"Well, pick again, Kurt" Puck said.
"Blaine" Kurt smirked.
"What?" Blaine gasped.
"You heard him" Tina smiled.
Kurt and Blaine shifted so they could face each other.
"Honey, I love you, won't you please, please smile?" Kurt whispered while batting his eye lashes and giving Blaine a small smile.
Blaine just smiled and blushed.
"Nice job, Blaine" Santana said sarcastically.
"Sorry!" Blaine whined. "Kurt cheated!"
"How so?" Tina asked, very amused.
"He knows my weakness is when he does that eye thing!" Blaine said.
"It's not cheating" Tina started.
"It's being smart" Kurt said. "Isn't that the point of the game?"
"You're mean!" Blaine pouted. "If it was anyone else, I could have done it. But you...no."
Kurt just hugged Blaine.
"Stop the snuggle-fest and move on, Kurt!" Sugar said loudly. Kurt let go of Blaine, but took his hand again. "Fine. Tina."
"Darn" Tina frowned.
"Honey, I love you, won't you please, please smile?" Kurt asked in a whiney voice.
"Honey, I love you, but I just can't smile" Tina replied.
"Yes!" Mike yelled and hugged Tina.
"You beat Kurt!" Blaine congratulated her.
"Whoo-hoo!" Tina fist pumped. "Take that, Kurt!"
Kurt frowned.
"Okay, Tina has to pick her target now" Santana said.
Tina looked at the people left: Santana, Brittany, Rory, Artie, Quinn and Mike.
"Mike" Tina said. "I pick you."
Mike pouted, but sighed. "Fine."
Tina made her voice really high and squeaky and made a deer-in-headlights face. "Honey, I love you, won't you please, please smile?"
"Honey, I love you, but I..." Mike began, struggling to keep a straight face, but he eventually couldn't hold on. He burst out laughing.
"Oh, so close!" Artie said, shaking his head.
"Next, I pick Brittany" Tina said. Brittany looked at her and Tina smiled. "Honey, I love you, won't you please, please smile?"
"Honey, I love you but I just can't smile" Brittany said.
"She did it" Artie said.
"But I lied. I actually can smile. See?" Brittany gave a really wide grin.
"Brit, pick someone" Kurt said.
"Rory!" Brittany said. "I pick my leprechaun!"
"What?" Rachel whispered to Mercedes.
"No clue" Mercedes said with a shrug.
Brittany stared at Rory and gave a clueless expression. "Honey, I love you, won't you please, please smile?"
Rory took a deep breath and answered. "Honey, I love you, but I just can't smile."
"Yeah, man!" Finn shouted and gave Rory a highfive.
"I pick Santana" Rory said.
"Oh, it's on!" Santana said with a smirk.
"Honey, I love you, won't you please, please smile?" Rory asked in his Irish accent, but he also said it in a lower voice. He also wiggled his eyebrows each word he spoke.
Santana's expressionless face held for a moment, but she smiled.
"Ha!" Rory shouted. "You lose!"
Santana rolled her eyes. "I know, I know. Your accent threw me off. Plus the eyebrow thing was hilar."
"Sure, sure, blame it on the accent" Blaine said.
"Shut it, Anderson!" Santana snapped.
"At least she got my last name right. I was sure you all still thought it was Warbler" Blaine laughed and said to Kurt.
"I'm pretty sure some of them still do" Kurt responded with a chuckle.
"I pick Quinn" Rory announced.
Quinn smiled at him. Rory smirked back.
"Wait, who's left in the game?" Sam asked.
Quinn, Rory and Artie raised their hands.
Rory looked at Artie. "My next victim" he said.
"We'll see" Quinn said confidently.
Rory stared Quinn in the eye. "Honey, I love you, won't you please, please smile?"
Quinn blinked, but kept her smile away. "Honey, I love you, but I just can't smile."
"Darn it" Rory looked heartbroken.
"Artie, it's just you and Quinn now" Puck said tauntingly.
"Girl, you're going down" Artie said with a grin.
"It's not over just yet" Quinn replied.
Quinn dramatically cleared her throat. "Honey, I love you, won't you please, please smile?" she asked in really, really high pitched voice.
Artie just laughed.
"Sorry, that voice was just too hilarious" Artie said, laughing.
"Rory's last one standing" Sugar said.
"Good job, bro" Sam smiled at the blushing Irish boy.
"That's a funny game" Rachel said to Tina.
"I know plenty more. When you got a summer job as a camp councilor, you gotta know this stuff" Tina laughed.

Hello gleeks (or I assume you are if you are reading a glee ff...)
Thanks for the comments...I love them all :)
In the next chapter, which I am about halfway done writing, the girls' prank is in effect...MWAHAHAHAH! Sorry...I had an evil moment
And I've also got some big plans for Orlando, which I hope you like too, but that doesn't mean you can't suggest idea and stuff because I love hearing them, and as long as it's not totally crazy like mutant alians come and shoot them all with lazer beams or something random like that, I'll probably work your suggestions in to the story.
Love you all (inset heart here)
