Lost All Resistance

Dear Daughter,

I have gotten word that your fiancee has arrived at Shiz University.

Your wedding is scheduled for this Sunday.

Sincerely,

Your father Frexpar

Elphaba immediately started to panic, what would he be like?

"Elphie...What's wrong?" asked her best friend, and roommate Galinda

Elphaba handed her the now tear soaked letter.

"Well that's great.."

"We've been betrothed since I was two, and we've never met."

"Do you even know his name?" Glinda asked shocked

" It's Fiyero Tiggular."

"WHAT? He's only the most popular boy at Shiz...and he's very cute, I've never seen it, but I've heard he has blue diamonds all over his body ."

Elphaba smiled a rare smile " I'll be sure and tell you if that's true. Oh, I'd better get to Dr. Dillamond's class, Fiyero's gonna be there." she got off the bed only to have Glinda push her back down

"Elphie, if you fiancee is gonna be there you gotta make a good impression. So, I'm giving you a make over" she sat behind Elphaba and started to undo her tight braid.

She handed Elphaba a floor length sparkly black dress "Change!"

After Elphaba did as she was told Glinda applied blush, eye liner, mascara, and lip gloss.

She walked into class just before the bell rang.

Dr. Dillamond was standing with a very cute boy with sandy blond hair and blue eyes.

"This is Fiyero Tiggular., he is the prince of the Arjiki Tribe, and he is marrying the Eminent Thropp Ms Elphaba."

Elphaba blushed and sank back in her seat.

"The ARTICHOKE!" a boy named Avaric yelled

Elphaba began to cry softly hoping no one would hear.

Fiyero walked over to her and picked her up bridal style , and walked out of the room..

He didn't stop until he reached his dorm.

He sat crossed legged on his bed. " Are you alright Elphaba?"

"I thought I would get used to that." she muttered looking at him

Suddenly he saw her cheeks were bleeding. "Are you allergic to water?" he asked

She nodded as he grabbed a tissue and dabbed at her eyes "There there. See all clean"

She blushed "Thank you..Yero my Hero."

"You're welcome my beautiful Fae."

"Don't..call..me...beautiful..Please!"

He smiled "but you are." he kissed her then not allowing argument.

" Who in the HELL told you your not beautiful?"

"My father called me an 'Ugly Thing' my whole life..and after 17 yrs. I believed him."

Fiyero sighed "Oh, I have something for you." he reached and picked up a box from his bedside table "Open it."

Inside the box was a ring that had an emerald in the center with sapphires around it.

"It's beautiful." Elphaba exclaimed as Fiyero slipped it on her finger.

"Elphie...Elphie..." the far away voice of Galinda called

Elphaba groaned 'just when I wanted to not see her' she thought

"Who is it?" asked Fiyero looking puzzled at her expression.

"Galinda Upland my best friend...who decided to be annoying right now." Elphaba rolled her eyes.

He laughed

"ELPHABA MELENA THROPP WHERE ARE YOU?" Galinda screamed

" I think I'd better go before Galinda either ruins her voice or has an aneurism."

Fiyero laughed again as Elphaba got up and walked to the door.

"Wait!" he exclaimed running to her.

"I'll see you tonight at our engagement party at the Ozdust" he said before kissing her.

She nodded before slipping out the door and joining Galinda.
