It wasn't like Mike could get pissed off and huffy that Sebastian didn't tell him about his brother. It really hadn't come up, but it just felt like information he should somehow have known before now. This was a whole lot of awkward he really didn't care for because he was usually so chilled about things in general. And now both Quinn and Mercedes knew he had been getting his dick sucked, and that was just downright embarrassing. He might be an underwear model and was far from modest, but it wasn't too much to hope for a little privacy, right? All because of Blaine's untimely car crash. What the hell would have happened it that hadn't gone done?!

He massaged the tips of his fingers against his forehead. He could feel a headache coming on, and was it any fucking wonder? He pointed at Sebastian. "So, you are gay and don't like tits, but your brother is... straight and does? He likes Quinn's tits and oh holy shit, how is he still alive? I'm surprised Kurt hasn't handcuffed him somewhere so he can't touch her, but that's beside the point."

"Booty call... yeah..." he went on to confirm with a confused frown. "At least that was the intention until I got Puck's voicemail telling me about Blaine. And not that there is anything wrong with that! We're both consenting adults, you know!"

[woman_or_a_girl]

Seriously? Was it entirely necessary that Sebastian announce that she and Jeremy were having sex? Or had had sex... It wasn't exactly like Jeremy's health had been conducive to "getting busy" since he'd come down with mono. And then Mike was talking about Jeremy liking her tits, and could this conversation be any more awkward? The blonde turned her gaze back to Mercedes, seeking the one person in this situation who knew her side of things, and who wasn't talking about her tits.

Moving closer to Mercedes, she turned back to Mike with a slight nod. "Jeremy and I are... Sort of unofficially dating. He's a sweetheart. But I didn't... I knew he was Sebastian's twin, clearly, but I had no idea that Sebastian was even in London."

Putting her hands up, she shook her head. "No... Nothing wrong with it... Just... can everybody just..." She was about to say calm down, but honestly? Calm down? When Blaine was going to have to have surgery, and she'd just kissed a mouth where Mike's dick had been, and the whole damn world knew the "who"" of her sex life, and Sebastian was doing Mike?

How the hell were any of them supposed to calm down?

[dapperdevious]

"Yeah, about that," Sebastian began as he looked up at Quinn with an eyebrow quirked. He gestured casually in the general direction of her stomach. "Your whole... situation is making him feel like he shouldn't be intruding or getting up in anyone's breeding business, so if you're waiting for him to be the one to make it official, you might want to get onto that sooner rather than later, because Jeremy is a fucking awesome guy worth a hundred times his weight and there are a lot of non-pregnant chicks in Britain who I am sure would tap that in a heart beat. I'm sure I could help him find one or two while I'm here."

Oh yes, his bitchclaws were out in full force, and this time, it wasn't just for the hell of being a bitch because he felt like it. This was Sebastian in full protective-twin mode. He did not want Jeremy getting hurt, and he was sure as hell not going to let this woman be the one to do it because of her awkward situation. There was no way in hell he was going to let a pregnant chick use Jeremy for her own devices, only to turf him inside to play happy surrogacy families when push game to shove. "Next time I'm in London, I'll be absolutely sure to check in with you... only not. I wonder why he didn't tell you, though... huh..."

Maybe he was rubbing salt into things, but if she wanted Jeremy, she was going to have to prove to Sebastian she was willing to fight for him. In Sebastian's eyes, Jeremy was worth that.

[gotstarpower]

Talk about laying down the gauntlet. Mercedes probably would have jumped in by this point passionately and honourably defending Quinn, but there was something telling her that Sebastian's words weren't just vindictive for the sake of saying bitchy stuff to aggravate the situation. In fact, he mostly seemed indifferent to the situation on a whole, it was his twin he was focusing on. And that was it right there. He was trying to protect his twin, but probably in the best way he knew how.

It was hard for her to imagine Sebastian with a carbon copy who was actually a decent and kind person. Quinn had sung his praises, and now here the other half was singing them too. But Sebastian himself was such a devious snot when he wanted to, to see his face on someone acting sweet had to be sort of amusing. In saying that, she was still sure she could see a human streak in him here with Mike. She couldn't put her finger on what, but there was something, and she tilted her head just a little in contemplation. Still, a Mike and Sebastian booty call? That was hot, and now for some reason Mercedes brain was going to take her to the notion that if Sebastian and Jeremy were identical twins, that probably meant they had identical packages, so that meant Mike and Quinn both knew what the Smyths' had below the belt, and that was mindboggling.

"Oh no, I can't think it would be anything to do with the fact that the dude you nearly blinded and tried to steal off his boyfriend is the baby daddy of the chick he is digging on. That ain't awkward at all," she had to say sarcastically, though. She was pretty sure she could understand why Jeremy may have kept his twin's presence on the hush for a bit.

[justwants2dance]

This whole damn thing was one giant awkward moment, as far as Mike was concerned. At the time, he did not see absolutely anything wrong with have a bit of a tumble with Sebastian. The guy was hot and it's what they both wanted, but he had no idea about any of the rest of this crap. Sebastian having a twin... who was dating Quinn, whilst Quinn was having a baby for Kurt and Blaine, who Sebastian tried to screw over six ways from Sunday back in school? Mike fucking Sebastian really wouldn't have had any distinct bearing on Kurt and Blaine's situation at all. A casual fling was a casual fling, and that's where it would have ended, but now it was suddenly all messy and complicated, and Mike hated when casual sex got messy and complicated. It ruined the damn fun.

And above all, they still blatantly knew Mike's dick had been in Sebastian's mouth very recently.

"Do Kurt and Blaine know about any of this? I certainly didn't know about any of it. I'm pretty sure by this point, they have just a tiny..." he waved his hand in the direction of Quinn's baby bump, "bit of invested interest in this whole thing, and to be honest? The way Kurt is right now? I do not envy a single one of you when he finds out. At all. Nada. I'm glad it's you and not me, no offence. I still have whiplash from the bitchpls he gave me when I tried to tell him the apple pie didn't belong on the Big Mac."

[woman_or_a_girl]

Quinn's hazel eyes darkened with anger as she met Sebastian's gaze. Sure, it was a seriously screwed up situation, and she could understand Sebastian's being worried about Jeremy, but he didn't have to be a total bitch... Even if Quinn had smacked him, it wasn't like she'd been operating with the full knowledge of exactly what was going on. Her voice was trembling just a little, but she managed to keep it under control as she spoke. "My friend was in a serious accident tonight, and yes, he's okay. But I'm really not in the mood for a bitch fight tonight. Jeremy is very special to me, Sebastian, and you may not think so, but then again, you haven't seen me in years, and you didn't really know me, even when you did see me last. I'm not using Jeremy. He's a beautiful person, inside and out, and he makes me happy. And I want to make him happy, too... Maybe you can't see that, but honestly, it's not about you. It's about me and Jeremy. That's it."

Mercedes's response to Sebastian made Quinn feel better, if only for a moment. She was grateful as hell that she had her dear friend close by. Her hand reached out blindly to give Mercedes's hand a squeeze as she faced Sebastian bravely. That was when Mike spoke up, and the blond turned to look at him. In her pregnant brain, Quinn halfway wanted to bitchpls him, because it felt like he was taking Sebastian's side, although, if she were rational, she'd realize that nothing he'd said was taking one side or another. It was more just a question and an observation. "They know I'm seeing someone, but at the time, I didn't realize that Sebastian was going to choose this of all times to show up in London. I didn't know how to tell them, that it was Sebastian's twin, but honestly, Jeremy's his own person. Yes, they're twins, and they have a deep connection, but that doesn't mean that Sebastian has to be a part of everything he chooses."

She sighed, shaking her head and putting up a hand. "I will be the one to tell Kurt. It's my choice to be with Jeremy, and that's what I want to do, so... I'll be a grown up and deal with the consequences of it."

[dapperdevious]

Sebastian held up his hand. "No, you don't get to get up in my face. You bitch me out without need, and I will make it my job to make sure Jeremy has nothing to do with any of this. So, don't even get up on your holier than thou high-horse, Fabray, and spout the guilt trip about Blaine, because I doubt even he would appreciate being brought into this farce of a mess. Oh really? I'm supposed to believe he is oh-so-special to you when the first conclusion you jumped to about him was that he was cheating on you with cock? Seriously? Yeah, don't even go there. I will believe you want to make him happy when I see it in action, girlfriend. I could care less about you or what you have been doing in years. I care about what you do to my brother, and that's it."

"And that's where you're wrong," he added with a sneer. "Jeremy is part of me, and it's always going to be about him and me. Don't like that or understand it? You're toying with the wrong guy. Don't even begin to fucking think you will come between us on any level. No cock or pussy has ever come between us, and I'm not about to let it start now. We're a package deal. Take it or leave it."

[gotstarpower]

Mercedes frowned with a shake of her head. "Why do you have to be such a goddamn bitch about all this? It would be a hell of a lot easier for everyone if you just chilled." She could see what he was saying, and she did understand why he was being so protective... and now also defensive, because it was obvious seeing it play out now that the twins must be really close. But couldn't be be a little more nicer about the whole thing?

Obviously a clash between Sebastian and Quinn was inevitable right now because he had no idea about her intentions towards his brother, but it was Mike Mercedes was feeling for here. He was sitting hunched over in the seat and barely saying anything, and it was impossible for her to tell what was going through his head. It wasn't like Mike to be embarrassed, but he did seem to be on some level. Then, if she got a booty call interrupted, she might be a little frustrated too, but Mike was such a peacekeeper in general, this was probably really doing his head in.

"Look, y'all just need to chill out right now and take this up some other time. It's a hospital and we ain't even sure how Blaine is right now, or what's all gonna come of it. Whatever feelings are at play here should just be set aside, for tonight at least. If it was any of us laying in there after being in a damn car crash, we wouldn't be wanting our family and friends out here at each other's throats."

[justwants2dance]

Mike wanted to stay out of this. He really, really did. In fact, he wanted to go and try to find someone who would give him news about Blaine, because clearly he wasn't getting it here and that was the whole reason he had come to the hospital in the first place. Puck or Finn had to be around here somewhere.

He just through his hands up. "I'm not even going to pretend to now any solutions to any of this, and I'm not getting in the middle or taking anyone's sides, because all I wanted was a bonk, and I didn't even get that. But 'Cedes is right. Blaine is hurt, and Kurt is going to be stressed out because of that, so there is no way any resolution on this... thingo is going to come tonight. You guys are going to have to figure out where you stand another time, and with Jeremy around to give his thoughts and feelings on the whole thing too. It's only fair. Marking your territories on him when he's not here would piss me off, so I can only imagine it would piss him off too, no matter how nice a dude he is."

[woman_or_a_girl]

There was a very strong part of Quinn whose palm was itching to connect with Sebastian's face again, but she fought off the urge. Two bitchslaps in one night couldn't be good for her record, and as much as she and Jeremy had enjoyed each other's company, she was pretty sure that bitchslapping his twin twice in one night would rub Jeremy the wrong way. "I care about him, Sebastian. That's all I'm saying. I'm not perfect, but I don't have any intention of hurting him."

She was about to throw back at Sebastian that Jeremy didn't have to clear his dating choices with him anymore than Sebastian had to clear who he fucked with Jeremy, but that was when Mercedes stepped in again. Having a sassy diva as one of her BFFs was something Quinn would forever be grateful for, especially days like this. As much as she wanted to fight back, Mercedes and Mike were both right. This wasn't the time or place, and Jeremy didn't deserve to have his life and relationships decided for him without even asking for his input, or his presence for that matter.

Despite everything in her yelling to stamp her foot like a little girl, or to insist that she was right, and to hell with the ass in front of her who just happened to share a face and DNA with the person she cared about, she couldn't do it. She just couldn't. Not with Blaine hurt. Not like this. "You're right," she finally agreed, though her arms crossed defiantly over her chest, and her facial expression dared Sebastian to say another damn word. "This is a talk for another time... With Jeremy. But I'll be damned if I'm going to put him in the middle of some stupid fight between us. He deserves better than that."

Turning her attentions back to Mike and Mercedes, she changed the subject altogether. "I think it's okay if you go in and see Blaine. I've been in, Puck and Finn are with him now, and clearly, Kurt..."

[dapperdevious]

It dawned on Sebastian then that he really had no idea why he bothered coming here. At all. At first, he hadn't really thought twice about it when Mike asked him to. It seemed right, but now? It just seemed fucked in the head and if he had to stand here and watch Fabray try to act like she was God's gift to all men who clearly couldn't live without her supposedly extensively caring and nurturing ways (only not, because she thought they would cheat on her at the drop of a hat), he was really going to vomit. If she thought she could have anything over him with his brother, she had another thing coming. "Too late, sweetheart. You already did put him in the middle of more bullshit than he deserves." He gave a pointed but bland look at her stomach and then just rolled his eyes.

He looked at Mike, standing with the two woman, and just gave a shake of his head. He had no fucking reason to be there. So, he just pointed to the exit of the waiting room. "This is a joke. I'm out of here." And without another word or even a glance at Mike, he left so he could get a cab as far away from that shithole as he could.

[gotstarpower]

Okay, so Mercedes could understand why Sebastian would be touchy over the whole thing. Clearly, he wasn't happy about his brother either dating a pregnant chick or dating a pregnant chick that was Kurt and Blaine's surrogate. Considering the history, she could see the aggravation there. And then Quinn not only kissed him when he was gay and with a guy he had just been trying to get his booty on with, but then she turned around and slapped it, which led to a rather nasty bitchfight from both sides. It wasn't a good situation at all, and if Mercedes was honest, she wasn't sure what the resolution could be. If Sebastian believes that Quinn was going to hurt Jeremy just from the situation, it could be hard to waver him because he was really stubborn and clearly his twin meant the world to him. She was pretty sure he would throw anyone under a bus to protect his brother... maybe even literally if the need arose.

And then there was the Mike factor. Had it really just been a booty call, or was there something there both guys had wanted to continue, and that's why Sebastian was even here in the first place? Because that really was weird and the biggest question mark. Why had Sebastian come when he apparently knew what the situation was with it being Blaine as a patient? She watched Sebastian's back disappear as he stalked from the hospital waiting room and turned back to Mike and Quinn. "Nothing ain't ever easy for us, is it? Mike, why the hell did you bring him here? You gotta have known it was gonna cause some sort of friction."

[justwants2dance]

Mike's lips were tight as he tried to keep a lid on his frustration. When Sebastian left, he let out a rough sigh and gave both of the girls an exasperated look. "Because maybe I don't think any of us deserve to be tarred with the same brush we all were in high school! Maybe I feel like we've all grown up over the years! Maybe I actually enjoyed his company! Maybe when I got a fucking voicemail hearing that Blaine had been smashed in a car wreck, I didn't want to be alone!" he snapped and shook his head. It was uncharacteristic of him to get upset like this, but he was and he couldn't help it. Maybe he was just tired, but he felt the whole situation was unfair and seriously not his fault for 'bringing Sebastian there' when he didn't have the entire information and he had actually been enjoying himself.

He held his hand up. "I'm not leaving it like this. He's not the same guy he was in high school and just because this is a whole fucked up situation with the surrogacy stuff going on, and how horrible he was to Kurt and Blaine in the past, doesn't mean he hasn't changed like the rest of us have. I didn't actually think it would cause any friction actually, because there I was thinking we were all adults that could just set differences aside when a friend was hurt. And I know this going to piss you off, Quinn, but I'm sorry... sometimes, you just have follow your gut instinct with something." And with that, he spun around and ran out of the waiting room, calling Sebastian's name before he hopefully got too far away to try and figure some of this out.

[woman_or_a_girl]

As Sebastian walked away, Quinn was literally shaking with anger. Jeremy had known she was pregnant with Kurt and Blaine's baby when they met, and he had invited her to Brighton anyway. Because he enjoyed spending time with her. Not because she'd somehow finagled her way into his good graces. They'd just hit it off really well, and as far as Quinn was concerned, there was absolutely nothing wrong with that. She was carrying Kurt and Blaine's baby, yes, but she was still Quinn, and with that came the desire to have someone special in her life, and Jeremy hadn't just looked at her and seen the pregnant chick. He'd looked at her and seen someone special, and she felt very much the same about him. So why the hell did this all have to be so hard?

Sebastian walked out, and Quinn turned to Mike, just as Mercedes started in on him. But from the look on Mike's face, Quinn was pretty sure she already knew the answer. Maybe it had been intended as casual sex, but Quinn really didn't buy that casual was all it was. She was pretty sure, if you hooked up with someone casually, and then got a call that a friend was in the hospital, unless there was something more to it, you just put the casual sex partner out of your place. But clearly, this wasn't a "normal" situation, and Mike was actually pissed off... on Sebastian's behalf?

Not that Quinn really had a right to say anything about having extremely awkward choices in sex partners of late, but part of her was hurt that Mike went after Sebastian. Then it struck her that it clearly meant a lot to him, and holy fuck, this could get more awkward than ever if... No. That wouldn't happen. Once he was gone, Quinn turned to Mercedes, still shaking, and her stupid hormones turned her from bitchy to weepy in two shakes. Tears flooding her eyes, she held her arms out, needing a hug.
