Elphaba stood staring out the window. Fear that she had never felt before rose within her being as she looked down upon the crowd that was anxiously awaiting the introduction to their new king and queen. Slowly a silver chain with a cursive word made its way in front of her face and down to rest on her chest. Gentle fingers fastened the necklace and trailed down the slopes of her neck, over her shoulders, down her arms, and laced into hers as he gently kissed the pulse point behind her ear drawing a soft sigh from her.

"Come look at it," he breathed into her ear as he led her over to a mirror.

"Oh Fiyero! It's beautiful!" It was a simple silver chain with a charm that read 'Fiyeraba'.

"Well I wanted to give you something that symbolized our togetherness. What better than combining our names and hanging it around your neck? Happy Coronation, Fae!" She smiled weakly. "What's wrong?" he asked turning her to him.

"I don't know, Yero! It's just… I'm scared. I can't believe it! I've been through worse! I hid for five years as a fugitive before my name was finally cleared and we returned to Oz, for Oz's sake. But put me in charge of a country and I flip out! I'm so sorry, Fiyero. I know this is not what you need right now but I'm terrified. I don't know the first thing about running a country." He could see the fear in her eyes and he was taken aback once again by how comfortable she was with him. The sentiment made his heart swell with love for her and he pulled her closer placing a kiss on her nose.

"And you think I do?"

"We're doomed!" she exclaimed in a very Glinda-like fashion throwing her forehead onto his shoulder.

He chuckled as he lifted her face. "No we're not. That's why mom and dad coronated us now. So they have time to teach us the in's-and-out's and do's-and don't's of being rulers."

"And here I thought it was because they wanted to enjoy that beautiful beach house of theirs in Ix," she scoffed.

"Well they did but they'll be here to teach us for a little while and when they are away they will only be a phone call away. They won't let us ruin their country, Fae." He brushed a loose curl away from her cheek so he could kiss it. "Our country, Fae."

Silently, Serena walked into the room. She was reluctant to break up the tender scene between her son and his wife. The girl had become like a daughter to her, far from the typical daughter-in-law. Their relationship stemmed from the yearning in both women for a mother-daughter relationship. Serena's husband Syntra had also created a strong bond with the woman making them truly one big happy loving family. "I am sorry to interrupt but we are introducing you in twenty minutes," she stated walking towards them and enveloping both of them in a hug. "Elphaba, dear, I know I said this before but you really do look gorgeous."

Elphaba was dressed in a dark purple strapless gown that had a two foot train. Her hair was curled and pulled up away from her neck. Her crown was silver and stood out greatly with her black hair and green skin. Fiyero gave his wife a very appreciative once over. He couldn't wait to remove that dress and- No Fiyero, not now.

"Thank you," she whispered humbly.

"You are welcome. Now your father is waiting for us in the other room. Let us go!" she exclaimed walking hurriedly out, Fiyero and Elphaba close on her tail.

"I love you," he whispered in her ear.

"I love you too." Elphaba stopped at the door, a smile across her face and tears brimming in her eyes as she watched her mother and father-in-law.

Serena walked up to her husband and encircled her arms around his waist from behind. Syntra turned in his wife's arms and his face lit up as he kissed her before taking her hand, kissing it, and turning to the door.

"Your parents really love each other," she whispered to him.

He slipped his fingers through hers, "Baby, that's you and me in fifty years."

"I heard that, Fiyero!" came his mother's voice.

Both younger people laughed as they followed the older couple out onto the balcony and into the rest of their life.
