A series of drabbles and oneshots on why giving a wand to Galinda was possibly not Elphaba's brightest idea.
Dedications to LittleGreenFae for being awesome and always reviewing Worth Living For and obsessive-elphaba for being amazing and cause I've given up on her birthday video :(

Boq studied the blonde from behind a bush, feeling slightly ashamed of his stalking as he practised what he was going to say to her if he approached her… when he approached her, he corrected determinedly.
"Miss Galinda, what a surprise! I didn't expect to see you here… on the ground of Shizz… here you are… every day…" he shook his head at his pathetic attempt and began again.
"Miss Galinda, what a wonderful day to be having a stroll in the wonderful grounds of our wonderful university…" Wonderful? Really?
"Miss Galinda, how…um…" Boq drooped his head, sighing. Just go up to her, the little voice inside his head encouraged. You'll know what to say when you're face to face!
Right.
This is it.
Boq straightened up, brushing a couple of twigs out of his hat and straightening his striped tie while looking nervously around to make sure Nessa wasn't about to suddenly attack him; for someone without use of her legs, she sure knew how to jump out at him.
Satisfied that he was safe from his admittedly beautiful, but slightly terrifying girlfriend, he drew himself up to his full height (which wasn't very much) and walked with as much dignity as one could after being crouched in a bush for half an hour.
He strutted towards Galinda, who was holding a book of spells the wrong way round in one hand, wrinkling her nose cutely as she tried to understand the upside down writing. In her other hand, she waved her trainee wand, flicking it with growing frustration as it refused to create the little pink bubbles she was trying to produce.
Boq took a deep breath, gave his blue pinstriped uniform one last tug to make sure he looked presentable then cleared his throat.
"Miss Galin-"
"Hiiiiii-yah!" with expert grace Galinda turned, her skirt swirling around her, and flung the training wand straight at Boq with a karate scream. Unfortunately for Boq, her throwing was much better than her spell casting, and the wand hit him directly in the eye. He fell to the ground in shock, clutching his head.
"…Biq?" Galinda leaned over him timidly.
"It's Boq, Miss Galinda…" Boq mumbled, hoping his eye wasn't about to fall out of it's socket.
"…I thought you were a stalker…" Galinda said, ignoring his input.
Boq froze.
"Well," Galinda stooped daintily and picked up her wand, which had rolled next to Boq after hitting him. "Goodbye, Biq," She flounced off, her book tucked under one arm, wielding her wand in front of her like a spear to march through a crowd of students.
Love hurts, he thought to himself as he stood and stumbled to the infirmary. Almost as much as a poke in the eye…
If anyone has any ideas, let me know :)
Don't forget to review!
