​If I understand you correctly, you want to delete the gh-pages branch from
"origin" which you accidentally got via a "git fetch"?​

I think you want:

git branch -d -r origin/gh-pages

example transcript:

[tsh009@it-johnmckown-linux source]$ git branch -av
* work                   6778d27 Total rewrite, from scratch, for MSSDCMP
  remotes/origin/master  021833c add version file
  remotes/origin/mckown5 085c839 Added version file to track work vs. home
changes
  remotes/origin/work    6778d27 Total rewrite, from scratch, for MSSDCMP
[tsh009@it-johnmckown-linux source]$ git branch -d -r origin/mckown5
Deleted remote-tracking branch origin/mckown5 (was 085c839).
