This is my first story I've written.

'COME ON!! MOVE IT!!' The Gale Force was growing stronger than she. Already outnumbered, they gained on her. Faster, faster. I can do it. Just...keep going. She glanced behind herself to see about 15 Gale Forcers armed with guns, and long knifes gaining even more on her. She could only go so fast, but she was holding up. "WE ALMOST GOT HER! KEEP GOING! GO GO GO!' She couldn't help but let out a chuckle. Almost got her? Ha. She spit in the faces of Gale Force, and the Wizard. She thrusted out all her energy and bolted around the corner of a large building. All the streetlamps had blown out except one lone one in the distance. She looked one last time behind herself and the Gale Force was gone. Puzzled she kept going, but all of a sudden there was a crash, a shriek, and everything went black.

'Hello!? Is anybody here? HELP!' Screamed a distressed blonde. 'I do NOT appreciate this treatment!' She huffed and plopped down on the small bed in the corner of the room. 'Glinda Upland will not stand for this.'

The Gale Force had broken into her palace quarters, and taken her in the dead of the night. Looking out the window, the moon was high in the sky, nowhere near dawn. All she remembers is being woken up violently, torn from her bed, told to dress warmly, and thrust over a soldier's shoulder. Now, she guessed she was in some kind of holding cell. What were they going to do with her? All she hoped was that they did not find Elphaba at any cost. Being confined to this small, cold, damp room she couldn't do much. Placing her face into her hands, the door was thrown open. Glinda looked up immediately.

'You bastards! Get off of me, NOW!'

'Oh god.' Glinda whispered to herself. She knew that voice anywhere.

'Shut up! Get in there!'

An enraged green girl was thrown into the room. Following that the door slammed closed and was locked from the outside. Elphaba banged on the door, no give. She turned around and saw her best friend Glinda, standing there staring at her with a tear in her eye.

'Elphaba..' Her worst fear had been confirmed. They had found her. She ran to her, and embraced in a long tight hug.

Elphaba loathed hugs, but let Glinda continue. After moments passed she peeled herself from her friend.

'How did they find you?' she asked quickly.

'I was out and about. I only go out at night, and when I do I am completely hidden. I'm not sure how exactly. But it happened.' Elphaba returned.

Glinda returned to her place on the bed, and motioned for Elphaba to sit. Elphaba denied it. 'Elphie, come here. There is no use trying to escape. The door is impossible to get out of. The single window is too high for both our reaches and there is no other way out.'

'I'm not just going to stop trying.' she said rather loudly.

'It's only going to waste energy we may or may not need. We don't know what is going to become of us.' Glinda argued.

'I'm not going to argue with you right now Glinda.'

Glinda sighed loudly and layed on her stomach face down on the bed. After a moment she felt a touch on her back. 'I hate fighting with you, you know that.' Elphaba was sitting next to Glinda tracing circles on her back.

'I don't like it one bit either. Hell. We act like a married couple sometimes.' She said rolling over to her back.

'We could be.' Elphaba said very quickly. Elphaba had fallen for Glinda awhile back, but has been too scared to every say anything. She'd hinted at it a few times, but nothing too drastic. She had a feeling today, in this very room her love for Glinda would be revealed. The thing is, she didn't know if Glinda liked let alone loved her back. She didn't know if it was worth it risking their friendship. There was a chance Glinda would feel the same about her. But then there was the chance that she wouldn't and would be completely wierded out and not want to talk to her anymore. It was a chance she was going to have to take.

'What's that? Sorry, didn't catch it.' Glinda said.

'Nothing..' she said turning her gaze to the wall.

'Elphaba?'

'Yes?'

'You can tell me anything, whatever it is.'

Secretly Glinda loved Elphaba, simple as that. She'd never dare say anything to her though. She was way too scared. She loved the way Elphaba was so strong, and her outlook on everything. Just her. She loved everything about her. Glinda doubted she felt the same, so she was kept to secrecy. Little did she know Elphaba was going through the same thing she was.

A worried look came upon the blonde's face. '...Elphaba?' she said with sincerity in her voice.

'It's nothing. Don't worry about it.' Elphaba snapped.

'Forgive me..' She sighed and layed back down on her side staring at the wall. Not even looking up at Elphaba.

Immediately Elphaba felt guilty about snapping. But she couldn't help it. It wasn't her fault, well it was, but it wasn't. She was so confused and had no idea what to do. Shit. Elphaba thought. She was going to just take the plunge now, and hope for the best. Why keep this anticipation going? She layed herself next to Glinda, no response at all. Not a single word. Elphaba decided to keep going. She reached for a pale hand and enclosed it in her own green one.

Glinda rolled onto her back and looked into Elphaba's eyes. She tried to read her expression; it was a confused yet determined expression. One of which she couldn't read with much ease.

'I'm sorry, Glinda.' Elphaba said stroking Glinda's hand gently.

Glinda's stomach turned inside out and back again. She didn't know what to do about all this. What action to take. She wanted Elphaba, she wanted her badly. To call her own. But, is it what she really wanted? She was beginning to doubt herself, second guessing wasn't good.

Glinda forced a smile on her face and just tried to think things through. But, she didn't have much time. Time is basically a bitch to her. To everyone with a human body, really.

Elphaba was literally shaking in anticipation; she had no clue what was to come. She quit trying to foresee it, it wasn't happening.

She swallowed hard and said, 'Glinda...I..'
