"No brownies for you. Bake off hater!"

after a previous disaster with rachel almost getting murdered, kurt had decided to get the glee club the substitute that had subbed his english class earlier in the week, which resulted in a lot of excited preparations.

"hey guys!" katy chimed as she walked through the door,

"stop!" puck yelled at her sticking out a hand to stop her moving any closer,
katy stopped immediately, terrified that something was wrong, "is there a bug on me?" she whispered, scared, puck laughed and shook his head,

"nope, ive just buttered the floor and we all know you have trouble not slipping over as it is." explained puck, lifting her gently over the buttered area, though rachel wasn't so lucky.

"did someone say something about a substitu....!!" she questioned, slipping and falling onto her backside, katy went to help her but couldn't she was laughing so much.

"well at least i didn't fall and break my talent!" she said, straightening out her clothes and hair,

"come on rach, let's sit you down," katy smiled gently, leading rachel over to a seat next to her.

"im fine! im fine!" she insisted to a sniggering mercedes, tina and artie.
a few minutes later, a pretty blonde lady slid over the butter casually and into the room.

"oh what the hell!" artie scoffed while puck stood looking dumbfounded at the substitute who had outsmarted him,

"hola class, nothing says Bienvenidos like a buttered floor!" she smirked as puck took the chance to check her out, seemingly impressed.

"lets start with some introductions, my name is holly Holliday what's yours? go!" she clicked, looking at puck.

"my names finn hudson, quarterback of the football team!" puck said goofily, putting on a dopey expression to match finn's,

"and im rachel berry, his loud loud girlfriend." santana added,

"im mike chang!" brittany chipped in, deepening her voice slightly. mike just nodded at her silently congratulating her choice of name change.

"those aren't your names, you know why i know that?" holly said bluntly,

"you're psychic?" brittany asked,

"i know this because i recently watched a video of your performance at regionals, where you came in last. maybe it's because the songs were about 30 years old but..." miss Holliday admitted,

"but those songs are classics!" finn protested.

"those songs were amazing, but they sounded like somebody else's favourite, not yours, just saying." miss Holliday rested her case,

"she speaks the truth." britt agreed. and so did katy, she really liked mr schue and thought he was a great teacher but he wasn't very open to song suggestions that were from their music taste.
"im not your average run of the mill substitute teacher." holly explained, "i want you guys to do things that you wanna do, i want you to have fun in our fabulous but fleeting time we'll have together, what do you say we have class outside today?"

"it's raining outside." mercedes pointed out,

"well then let's take a field trip to Taco Bell!"

katy jumped out of her seat in agreement ready to go. "yes!" she screamed,

"shall we toke up some medical grade marijuana? i wish!" Miss Holliday laughed,

"okay no!" rachel protested, "we can't just goof off all day we have to write a set list for sectionals!"

katy partially agreed with rachel, they had to prepare if they wanted to be ready but at the same time, she would love to have some fun! that's what glee was all about for her.

"okay, what songs would you like to do?" miss Holliday asked them but was faced with a lot of dumbfounded, confused faces, "oh we don't get asked that question that much do we?"

"miss Holliday's right." kurt agreed with her, taking his place on the chairs, "mr schue's great but he sometimes acts as if he hasn't listened to the radio for the last 40 year's,"

"he never listens to what i have to say." puck admitted, suggesting that they sang the new cee lo song forget you, which had been playing round the puckerman household on full blast since it was released.

"cee lo! that's what im talking about!" miss Holliday beamed,

"okay what would you know about cee lo, cause you're like 40?" santana sassed,

"top 40 sweet cheeks! hit it!"

(song- forget you, sang by holly Holliday with artie, mercedes and the new directions)

the whole song katy danced around with brittany, quinn and santana, occasionally trying to get rachel to join in. she had the time of her life, singing one of her favourite songs with the people she loved.

☆

mercedes was furious. she slammed her tray down on the table making katy jump.

"this is an outrage!" she yelled,

"cedes it's not that bad," kurt tried to soothe the girl,

"not that bad!? have you seen what they're doing to my tots!" Mercedes shrieked, pointing over to a group of cheerios who were throwing the trays of tots in the trash. "that's it, i have nothing to live for! if i don't die of starvation in the next 24 hours, kill me."

katy laughed out loud at Mercedes's dramatic expression, but had to stifle it as a sneeze because of the killer glare Mercedes was giving her.

"my poor tots." she sighed desperately, as kurt tried to reason with her.

katy and sam decided to leave the group of glee kids at the lunch table and try and find some tots or something to ease mercedes' pain, they sped down to the local store, in the short time they had and eventually decided on a bar of Hershey's and a pack of strawberry chewing gum, katy's favorite.

when they got back, and had delivered their goodies to mercedes, who smiled for the first time that lunch, they realized how late they were.

"get on my back, ill give you a piggyback, ill get us there, you think of the excuse." sam instructed, bending down to allow katy to climb on his back. they zoomed down the hall, with katy clinging on for dear life.

they were both panting by the time they got to Spanish class, giggling with any spare breathe they had, to their relief it was miss Holliday subbing.

"sorry we're late miss Holliday!" katy panted,

"totally fine dudes! just had a quickie did you?" miss holiday laughed, high fiving a giggling sam as katy blushed,

sam kept his hand in hers, leading her to their desk, relieved that miss Holliday was so chill.

"typical! we could've stopped for a make out session!" sam whispered in her ear, disappointed.

katy giggled, "we can do that later."

"yes!" he punched the air excitedly.
spanish went pretty quickly and sam and katy made their way to glee club, miss holliday in pursuit, telling them to let the club know to go straight to the auditorium.

rachel had finally decided to loosen up, singing with miss holliday on stage, they were amazing and katy danced about excitedly in her seat, delighted that her best friend had finally decided to have some fun!

the rest of the week was generally uneventful, with the only interesting thing happening being mercedes causing a tots riot in the cafeteria.

katy was sat on her sofa watching the british bake off intensely, waiting for sam to arrive. ten minutes later, sam knocked on the door, katy rushed to answer it but was beaten by puck.

"hi!" sam grinned at puck, who crossed his arms,

"before i can go back to being your friend sam, ive got to lay a few things straight, you hurt my little sister and i will hurt you, you do anything that makes her remotely upset and i end you. that clear?" puck said seriously, staring a terrified sam straight in the eyes.
sam just nodded, fully understanding but a bit scared of puck, which was understandable seen as he's just been released from juvie.

"lay off him noah!" katy scolded, feeling for her poor boyfriend, but she understood. growing up without a dad was hard, especially for puck. threatening the boyfriend was usually done by the father and puck was always protective of her, taking most fatherly roles in her life, like threatening the boyfriend and protecting her. puck was a great brother and katy was extremely grateful for him, despite all his mess and idiocy.

"okay, okay! he just needs to know!" puck defended himself, sending sam a friendly smile to reassure him that he wasn't going to be murdered this evening.

katy took sam into the lounge, and they sat down on the sofa together,

"what you watching cutie?" he smiled at her,

"oh just the British bake off, i can watch this later though," she blushed,

"no let's watch it, we can cuddle," sam said, adjusting his position, so katy could lay her head on his chest and cuddle into him.

half way into the show, sam looked down at the very much content katy,
"we could do this. easy. make these so called professional bakers look like amateurs!" sam said, his head whirling with ideas,

"yeah we probably could!" katy agreed, sitting up, "you wanna give it a go?"

"duh!" sam grinned. "what we wanna make?"

they spent the next half an hour reading through old recipe books and recipes on their phones until they settled on salted caramel brownies. they were gonna give them to glee club after their rehearsal the next morning.

"okay, we need some ingredients, let's go to walmart!" katy exclaimed, reading through the list of ingredients in front of them.

when they finally got back from the store, it was 11pm and the couple got a start with the baking. making a huge mess, and laughing their heads off, it was the most fun katy'd had in ages, throwing flour at each other, trying to get the measurements right, trying to stop sam eating all the mixture, she felt like the luckiest girl on the planet.

when they finally put their bake in the oven, sam sat her up on the counter,

"i love you." he said suddenly, wiping some flour off of her cheek,

katy gasped, smiling ear to ear, "i love you too."

she wrapped her arms around him, and they stood there for a while, just enjoying each other's embrace until they were interrupted by a nosy noah puckerman.

"what smells so good at 1 o'clock in the morning?" he said, sleepily,

"salted caramel brownies!" katy beamed, excitedly,

"she made you watch bake off? bro im so sorry, i think it's you that needs protecting!" puck laughed.

katy purses her lips, and stuck her tongue out him,

"it was actually pretty good!" sam smiled, "i mean it made me hungry but hey,"

"she's got you whipped hasn't she?" puck chuckled as sam nodded and laughed in agreement,

"fine! no brownies for you bake off hater!" katy pouted.

puck's face fell immediately and his mouth dropped open, "sis you can't do that to me! that's pure evil!" he protested, upset,

"the princess has spoken." sam chuckled, "you're screwed bro, don't worry ill smuggle you one later,"

"thanks bro!" puck smiled at sam, "you'll definitely pass the brother test if you do that!"

"no you won't evans." katy said, crossing her arms, "diss the bake off, you get the pain."

☆

"we come bearing gifts!" katy announced entering the choir room, as sam held the tub of brownies above his head.

"aww great! they'll be lovely after our performance with miss holliday!" mr schue smiled as they made their way to their seats,

"they're really good guys!" puck added enthusiastically.

katy gasped dramatically, "you didn't!"
sam looked guilty, "you blew our cover puck!"

"whoops?" puck said, making a worried face.

"traitor!" katy muttered under her breath, moving to sit next to Rachel and Finn at the front of the choir room.

(song- singing in the rain/ umbrella, sang by holly Holliday, mr schue and the nds)

after the performance, katy splashed over to sam, straightening his tie,

"how cute do you look! i can't stay mad at you looking like this!" she smiled,

"still love me?" he asked, smug look on his face that he had such an effect over her,

"more than anything."
