Disclaimer: I don't own anything, except a dog and a house, oh wait, we're talking about Wicked here, I don't own that either.

Author's note: Sorry this is so short, I do plan on making this multi-chaptered, though it might not be updated that often. This is my second fanfic, hope its good, or at least acceptable.


It came out of nowhere, really, it did. She might be blonde, bubbly, and let's not forget cute, but she was not oblivious to the world around her. She had been walking with Shenshen and Pfannee, of course, when all of the sudden, they were gone and she heard someone yelling out her name.

"Miss Galinda, Miss Galinda!"

Now really, who was shouting so rudely at her? Those pretty blue eyes of hers darted towards the interruption in her day. Oh, drat, it was that Biq boy, when will he learn to leave her alone! But he wouldn't, in fact, he was heading straight for her. "Biq, really, enough already!" Frustration permeated her otherwise lovely voice.

"Watch out!" Boq grabbed her by the arm and waist as he ran past her, pulling the usually frilly pink clothed girl to the ground on top of him.

"Why I never!" She fumed her otherwise perfect skin flush with anger, just then, a carriage rolled past at an alarming speed.

She then heard two distinctive screams that sounded an awful like Pfannee and Shenshen. "Miss Galinda," they say in unison as they run up to them, "Are you alright, we saw it all! He saved your life!"

"What?" Incredulously, Galinda stared at Boq. He had scrambled back and was standing now, holding out a hand to her. His sweat drenched golden hair was messy and stuck to his forehead, his face red with the sudden exertion.

But the beautiful, and still well dressed, Gillikinese girl didn't notice the stains on his pants, nor the fact that her dress was soiled with dirt as well. All she saw was her savior. "Biq, you saved me?"

"It's Boq," Almost a little irked, almost, "And yes," he glanced down the way the carriage had gone. "I guess I did." The Munchkinlander grinned, maybe this was his chance! Oh dear Fate, how I love thee! Thought Boq.

Galinda took his still offered hand, pulling herself up. Arms wrapped tightly around the shorter boy and she placed a well deserved kiss on his cheek. "My hero!"

Boq beamed.
