Soaring
It was silent in the girl's dorm of Shiz, all apart from one room. If you went close enough to door you would hear a gentle gasp or a low moan or a whispered name and even the occasional whimper. These were the sounds of Elphaba and Fiyero making love. They were entwined on Elphaba's bed discarding the rough woollen blanket and stripping themselves of their clothes before tumbling onto the cotton sheets. Elphaba had once decided she would never let anyone ever touch her like this...not after, well, now wasn't the time to think about that. Yet here she was holding Fiyero close to her trying to press herself to him as he planted kiss after kiss on her, those rose bud lips of his teasing her pliant skin. As he pressed his lips to her skin he traced his fingertips down her side following the protrusions of her ribs (oh how he tried to get her to eat more, still he loved her lithe body) and the gentle curve of her hip until it rested on her thigh. He swallowed at the closeness he had to an area she never let him touch.
"I-I love you Elphaba" He murmured his voice thick with arousal when her back arched as he traced her hip bones with his thumb "I love you too Yero My hero…" She whispered, dizzy with need. He dared to go lower just to her inner thigh so close to that heat he longed to touch. but still she stopped him from touching her, placing his fingertips to her mouth she kissed them, resting his hand on her breast before leaning on and kissing the line of muscle from his shoulder to his throat, then down to his tattoos. She had developed a fascination with them, the deep azure blue matching his eyes and contrasting so starkly with her skin. In a way, it made him like her. Marked, different, of another kind. She whispered his name against his skin, tongue darting out to taste the thin sheen of sweat formed by their frenzied worship of each other.
"El-pha-ba" Yero ground out, it was so hard to speak when she did this, that gentle touch of her mouth on his skin, it drove him wild and it took all his restraint not to rush things and make love to her at her preferred languid pace. She pulled herself up, needing him now. She kissed his lips and arched her back as he pulled himself between her thighs, her back arching again as she felt HIM, on her thigh.
"Do you want me?" Yero Murmured pulling her hips down to meet him. She squirmed as he pulled her even closer, she was so close to him being inside her, that thought of him and her as one pulled the answer from her lips "More- than-anything" She gasped as he slipped inside completing her. Her head tipped forward in ecstasy as they began to move her damp forehead and hair brushing his chest. Yero pushed himself up on his elbows and looked at her stooping to kiss her with "Holy Unnamed God!" on his lips. A hot rush of pleasure shot through Elphaba at the change of angle and she bit her plump lower lip, swollen from kisses, before biting his as he pulled her down to meet his own thrusts. His shoulders started to tremble and explicatives she would normally scold him for tumbled form his lips, but she was to busy enjoying herself to care. He pulled her close as she tipped over the edge, the look of utter bliss on her face pulling him over too. Elphaba fought the urge to scream as the hot waves of pleasure ran up her spine the look Yero's face when he let go was exquisite. She finally stilled her hips as he crumpled on top of her, pushing her hair from her eyes and rolling them over so he didn't crush her before planting a chaste kiss on her forehead. "You don't know how beautiful you are, do you?" He was still gasping, as was she and she had to fight to force out the words "I'm only beautiful because you make me beautiful". Yero rolled his eyes, she would never, ever accept she was stunning to him and to those who truly knew her, the ones that could see past the fact she was green and take in the pouting lips, the dark shining eyes and her gleaming hair as dark as polished mahogany. Even he found the green exotic, exciting, different, special, and not abhorrent like the rest of Oz. He grinned up at her flushed face "explain that one to me, all I see is a stunning woman in my arms". She ran her hands through his hair "You'll never understand my sweet" she murmured smiling gently. Yero stretched lightly and rolled onto his back taking her with him "If I understood you-"He stretched his arms and back out before resting a hand around her waist "That would make me insane".
Elphaba cackled. Not many people found that sound harsh, spiraling sound sweet, but he did, and he would find no fault in her. "You're probably right" she grinned widely showing off gleaming white, slightly pointed teeth. "But I love my crazy green girl" Yero nuzzled her shoulder "She's special". Elphaba yawned daintily placing a hand over her mouth. "You really are amazing, you know that?"
Yero was always up for an ego boost, not that he was a show off…not at all. "I am rather amazing aren't I?" She smiled happily and pulled a curl of his hair before it pinged back into place. "What is it with you and my hair" He chuckled. It was a just a messy tangle of brown curls nothing special, nothing like her radiant locks. "Because-"she whispered twirling yet another curl around her finger "It's part of you and incredibly sexy"
Yero looked deeply into her copper brown eyes "I love you". She pressed her nose to his "I love you more". Here we go the love competition Yero thought. "I love you more than that" He stated pulling her closer. Elphaba thought for a moment "I love you….mostest" Yero laughed. She could be so cute sometimes, but only for him no-one else got to see the cute Fae he saw daily. "That's not even a word" he admonished with a poke to her shoulder. "You're not a word Yero".
"Ah..." He smiled "I'm glad about that, because I was a word, I wouldn't be ale to do this" He all but pounced on her sliding down the bed to kiss the taught flesh of her stomach, now with an opalescent sheen of dried sweat from the pervious activates.
Elphaba giggled, kicking her feet as he kissed around her tummy button "That tickles!"
He frowned, that wasn't supposed to happen; she was meant to be a moaning puddle by now "it's not meant to". Yero switched tactics teasing the sensitive skin with his tongue working in slow circles as he had done with the body shots earlier that night. Elphaba bit back a moan and shivered as his mouth heated her from the outside in…could she want him again already…was it possible?
She felt him smile against her skin "Up for round two hmmm, Fabala Fae?" He said plating kisses up her body nipping at the spot on her collar bone that he knew was incredibly sensitive, "Round two!? Again? You really could go all night couldn't you?" She giggled, that gorgeous little giggle, Yero had to fight the urge to take her again immediately. She kissed him gratefully praying her would do something to combat the rising tide of arousal beginning in the pit of her stomach. "With you in bed I could go for weeks" Elphaba snorted, even as her need for him grew "Now that, Mr. Tigelaar, was a blind lie! Shame on you! I should just up and leave you high and dry" She announced, sticking her nose up in an aristocratic manner. Yero decided to play dirty. Tracing a slow spiraling pattern on the top of her thigh he murmured "not if I do this" The feel of his finger and the tone of his voice made a shiver of pleasure trickle down her spine.
"Was that a shiver I detect?" he was grinning. She wanted him...blatantly. "Maybe... So what if it was?" Elphaba bit back a whimper as the pattern continued an unending spiral of pleasure on her thigh. "Was I the one that I caused it? Or is it the fact you're naked and it's not the warmest in here?" And indeed she was naked, deliciously so and he had no objections what so ever to warming her up. "Bit of both really. Your hands are cold" Cold hands, warm heart Elphaba thought happily. Yero rubbed his hands together "I guess I'll have to warm you up then" He slid his soft tanned hands up her stopping and cupping her perfect breasts. Well they were perfect to him. Not to big, not to small, but nice and perky, fitting in his hands perfectly. "I would love to try those body shots again" he breathed into her ear, squeezing her breast and brushing his thumbs over the nipples lightly "how about you Fae?"
Elphaba licked her lips. A low fire was burning at the pit of her stomach and Yero was only fanning the flames. "Anything for you" she murmured drunk on his touch, arching into his hands. Yero kissed each nipple grinning as they hardened in his mouth and noticed her hands clinging to the sheets, before kissing down her stomach. "Yero, how did you become so perfect?" she gasped as his teeth grazed her hip bone; he was too close to…there. She tensed and Yero felt it. "What's wrong?" he asked tenderly, a single finger stroking her stomach. She sighed "it's just...I'm not used to… being …never mind" she rested her head back heavily on the pillow stroking the defined muscles in his back. "No tell me" Yero said firmly "we tell each other things, Fae" not EVERYTHING Elphaba's conscience whispered.
"I'm not used…to being touched, not like you touch me, every time you do it's like the whole world blurs and everything melts away and you are my world" Yero wondered at her words, So in depth, so analytical. She always analyzed everything, she needed to feel and feel only. He was teaching her that. "Then let go and feel me for now" he whispered into her ear his tongue tracing the elegant curve of the rim. "And you'll be my kite string while I soar?" her eyes tender, her gaze fragile, she melted his heart when she looked at him like that "and you'll be the one who makes me fly" and it was true, she did, just one glance from her and his heart was free, up among the clouds, the otherworld. She smiled that smile that was only for him. A twist of the lips to the one side: a gentle, teasing smirk. When she did that she looked positively…wicked.
He lost it then. The fire erupted in him and he pulled her close tracing her breast with his tongue and sucking a nipple into his mouth "are you sure you want me" he muttered against her skin, wet from his mouth "I can stop and we can go to bed" his mouth switched sides, and God her skin tasted just as good as it smelt, like salt and vanilla and Elphaba. She dug her hands into his hair "Don't stop...don't ever stop" How could she ask him to stop? His mouth was so warm and wet and Oh Lurline, let him do that thing with his tongue again. "I'm yours" he panted pulling himself up to look into her eyes before dropping back to her skin tasting, learning, feeling her pleasure. "For good?" She asked suddenly uncertain. "As long as your mine" he confirmed spiraling his tongue around her nipple. Elphaba's head dropped back, unable to keep watching him any longer her eyes shut and let the sensations overwhelm her. "Are you ready for me?" He always asked her, she wouldn't let him touch her to find out if she was aroused enough to accept him so he asked her. The tenderness of that act always made her heart flutter. She nodded, biting her lip in anticipation. "I love you" He kissed her gasping as he slipped inside her warmth "and I hope you know that". She bit into his lip fighting the urge to moan as he moved inside her in a perfect rhythm that was threatening to tip her over the edge any second, Oh God, so close-
"Don't mind me" Galinda stumbled drunkenly through the door. "Holy -!" Yero exclaimed as Elphaba's kicking and jump of shock threw him off the bed. "Don't you knock!?" He shouted from the floor wincing as he felt his arse was bruised as well as his ego. Elphaba was fuming, Galinda KNEW she and Fiyero would be in here making love, and they had agreed months before, when they agreed the nights Yero and her would spend together, she would stay at Pfannee's, Shenshen's or Nessa's until the next morning "GALINDA!!GET THE HELL OUT!!" Galinda however seemed to have forgotten the arrangement "MY room, MY private suite!" Elphaba wrapped a sheet round her, also realizing she was going to have sneak into the launderette in the morning to avoid having to explain to Galinda's Ama about embarrassing stains on the bed clothes.
"We're kinda busy, you little idiot" she whispered fiercely. Galinda tore her arm out of Elphaba's grasp "No really? You don't say" She slurred, tottering drunkenly on her high heels, She smiled suddenly, touching Elphaba's cheek "You're pretty, did I tell you that?" Elphaba took in Galinda's appearance properly. The normally perfect golden curls were limp and haphazard, her mascara and lipstick where smudged and her clothes were damp from the rain "Galinda? What's wrong with you? Have you been drinking since we left?"
Galinda bolted at the tender expression in her Elphie's eyes "Like you care! You're to busy fucking Yero your hero!" The bitterness in her voice was evident as was the pain and jealousy in her eyes and another emotion that seemed a mixture between want, lust and love made Elphaba's breath catch.
"Now you just wait a clock tick!" She whispered angrily "How DARE you say I don't care about you! Galinda, do you know what I've done for you? What I've given up to be your friend" Her chances of being in a higher class in sorcery so she could help Galinda, spending evenings tutoring her when she should have been revising for mid-terms, and all those rumors that she had heard whispered she's nothing more than a social climber, she's probably cast a spell on poor unsuspecting Lin…probably…one of THEM too, only doing this so she can get into her pretty roommates pants. And all Galinda did was shrug. "I love you, you little idiot" she said slightly more tenderly "Just because I love Fiyero in another way, what's happened to you?" The sparkle that normally was situated in Galinda's startlingly blue eyes was dead. Galinda bit her lip as her eyes welled and suddenly all the emotion that was building up for months burst out in a torrent of anger and tears.
"Watching YOU and HIM" She sobbed pointing a finger and Yero still staring from the floor "Every single day! Touching and kissing and whispering and holding hands and…and" her bottom lip trembled as she whispered "And I want to be the one doing it with you not him"
Elphaba gaped. WHAT! She can't…she…she can't love me! Yero loves me! Two people can't love me! Elphaba took a deep calming breath...not that it worked. "Galinda, you're confused, deluded even! I...I can't be around you when you're like this"
That's right that little voice in her head murmured push her away, you don't deserve to be loved by one person let alone two, and even if you don't love her like that…you've wanted her in the past haven't you, all those lonely nights before Yero, you wanted to kiss her didn't you? You wanted to have someone to love you didn't you? It would have been so easy to slip into her bed and-
"Well that's fine! I don't want to be around YOU when you're screwing each other senseless" Galinda laughed bitterly "I'm DONE. I'm gone...I'm going to Nessas" And she left with the slam of the door. Elphaba sank onto the edge of the bed, head in her hands "What just happened?" She whispered trying to make sense of the swirling emotions in her body: in her heart. "I just don't understand" her eyes welled and she felt the burn of her tears as they slipped out of her eyes, she pressed her hands to her face, willing them to stop, willing herself not to be weak, not in front of Yero. Seeing her tears he slipped next to her and pulled her into his lap soothing her "Galinda admitted she has feelings for you…deep ones" he stroked her hair "shhhh my darling".
Elphaba began to sob "How could she…why would she" This was all too much, far, far too much for her to handle right now. Yero wiped her eyes with the corner of the bed sheet "She's drunk, upset and…lusting after you Fae, that's all, she wants you and I know that's hard to understand right now. But it will all seem better in the morning". Elphaba calmed a little "I love her…she's like my sister, she's my best friend…how can she...It just doesn't make sense" She felt him lie her down plumping up the pillows before resting her head there and wrapping his arms around her thin frame "sleep now Fae, sleep and it will all be ok". So she did: the upset and the exhaustion acting as a perfect lullaby to lead her into a troubled sleep.
X0X0X0X
Fiyero watched as Elphaba's sharply edge features twitched in a distressed slumber. He had been watching her for a few hours, soothing her when ever she flailed too intensely. She started to whimper and mumble in discomfort "Fae, come back to me...it's only a dream" She writhed in his arms as the dream became more intense "No…Galinda…".
He pressed his lips to her ear "Wake up darling" he murmured rubbing her back.
She suddenly thrashed and sat bolt upright, eyes wide and chest heaving "Galinda Don't!"
Fiyero pulled her into a tight hug stroking her hair "it's just a dream Fae, it's fine" He held her until her breathing slowed and her eyes recognized him "Oh God ,Fiyero, it was awful! I dreamed Galinda…Galinda" she lowered her eyes and whispered "…hurt herself". Yero continued to rub her back, as one would soothe a child from a nightmare and felt her start to calm "It was only a dream Fae that's all". Elphaba rested her head on his shoulder and took in his scent letting it calm her further "what time is it?" she said nuzzling into the soft skin where his neck became his shoulder. "7:30…we don't have to be up for another hour". Elphaba grinned and settled back her arms behind her head "Good morning then".
He smiled back gently taking in her sleep mussed hair and still sleepy eyes "Good morning" he said lying back as well and kissing her forehead. She rolled onto her side taking the sight of his gloriously naked form; every inch of him toned and muscled, but not overly so "Why Master Fiyero, I do believe you are naked. The shame" she said ending the cheeky sentence with a wink. "As are you Miss Elphaba" he chuckled running a dingle fingertip down her side, his eyes fixed resolutely on her breasts. "Cheeky!" she gasped, in mock horror, tipping his chin back up so his eyes met hers "Oh well, I guess I'll have to kiss you here then". He pressed a chaste kiss to her lips before pulling away with a naughty smirk. "I think I might have another doze" And with that he rolled over and hugged his pillow. Elphaba raised an indignant eyebrow
"Unsurprising, you sir are a beast". Yero began to snore in an obviously fake manner. "Someone's being rude" Elphaba stated and pinched the bridge of his nose. Sitting up abruptly Yero whined "OW! I was hoping you would wake me up a bit more pleasantly than that!" Elphaba rolled her eyes "Oh don't be such a baby, I barely touched you"
Yero pouted, that pout even Elphaba couldn't resist "Oh for the love of Nanny, come here!" She swooped in and kissed his nose then his lips, she felt his lips relax, her tongue dipped into his mouth caressing the roof making him shudder, when she felt him pulling away and suddenly pin her wrists. "Oh no you little minx, you are going to pay for being so mean to your sexy boyfriend". Elphaba giggled girlishly "Oh my". He looked at her a second more taking in ever aspect of her gorgeous body, how could she not believe she was beautiful? He traced a finger down her side once more making her bite her lip in expectation before suddenly tickling her unmercifully. She squealed with laughter and tried to twist away. "Say uncle!" He tickled harder his fingers skittering over her smooth skin "Never!" she cried defiantly, giggling helplessly "I said say uncle" and he bent over her and pressed his lips to her stomach blowing a long raspberry there making her shriek "OKAY! Okay! Uncle…Uncle U-huun-cle!" She cackled as he did a combination of both. "That's more like it…Now I have a genuinely stunning women pinned to the bed what in Oz should I do?" He said huskily his tone and eyes changing from playful to sexual. "Kiss me too fiercely" she whispered in awe of how dark his blue eyes could turn with lust for HER of all people, it was absurd in all honesty! "Hmmm…she's getting poetic, was hoping for something a little more blunt" She shuddered at the feel of his hot breath playing over her ear, his lips just grazing the curve "like what" she whispered rubbing her fingers down his arm tenderly "You know what you want Fabala, your wish is my command". Elphaba smirked THAT smirk "oooh, this could be fun". Yero sighed against her skin nibbling softly at the curve of her ear "not unless you tell me what you want me to do". She faltered, it was always hard for her to express herself sexually, he had slowly coaxed this new person out of her, the first time they had made love she was silent, didn't even gasp, he didn't even know when she had reached release, he had taught her it was all about letting go of yourself and letting love and pleasure take over for a while, but it was still difficult at times, to let herself be fragile. She swallowed "kiss me like you did last night. Touch me like you always do, just be you… ". She had closed her eyes, soaking in the feeling of his eyes on her. Fiyero kissed each closed lid then her lips "always, always for you". He muttered against her lips as they kissed tenderly "do you have any idea how much I love you?" He slid his hand down her chest, cupping each breast tenderly, shaking his head. She gasped at the warmth of his palms "tell me then" he stated taking a single finger and stroking a circle around her tummy button "Without you I have no world" her eyes had fluttered shut again.
"Then your world is far too small"
"My world is just the right size for me. Perhaps it is your world that is far too big"
His hand crept steadily downwards, and for once Elphaba fought the urge to stop him, she wanted this, he wanted this, he wanted to give her pleasure, she was going to accept.
"No...You are my universe you are my stars and my heaven and I love you is never going to express that" he finally slid his hand between her legs and they gasped in unison, she was so warm, so delicate. Her eyes fluttered open and shut, resisting the urge to move her hips in time with his teasing fingers, he was learning what she liked, where to touch, what made her hips twitch. Finally his thumb brushing somewhere unspeakably sensitive and brought "Yero" in a choked gasp, from her opened mouth. "Is this ok? I'll stop if you-" she fought in desperation not to reach down and grab his hand to make it press more firmly, she finally admitted "its—nice".
Reassured she was actually enjoying this and wasn't bearing it for him, he finally mustered the guts to slip two fingers inside, crooking them ever so slightly, Thanking the unnamed God that her first experience of this wouldn't be of clumsy, fumbling hands, hurting her instead of stimulating her. "Is that all?" he whispered reverently hardly able to believe that he was touching her like this, that he was allowed this privilege. Elphaba gasped. Hard. How –Oh God, that's amazing- was he setting her on fire like this? His fingers inside her kept touching something that made her push down towards him, needing more. "Better than nice?" she could only nod overwhelmed in sensation. He watched her face as he gave her this new form of pleasure, her mouth alternating between gasping, moaning and biting her lip, her neck tipped back. Her hair became messier as her head tipped from side to side and her hands clenched in the sheets. "You're so beautiful" He said pressing his lips to her clavicle "you must know that".
"Don't...I've…I've told you not to lie to me" She whimpered as his fingers grew faster pushing her even closer to that precipice. Then he stopped. Why did he stop! "I'm going to stop this-" he curled his fingers again, making her buck "until you agree that you are beautiful". Elphaba bit her lip, his fingers were still inside her, unmoving but there and she wanted, no needed them to move again or she surely WOULD go mad. "I am beautiful" she said quickly, clearly not meaning it, but Yero decided it would be best to take these things one step at a time, and he started to move again, slower this time wanting to draw it out." Good" He kissed her forehead tenderly and his lips felt a slight beading of sweat on her brow. "Fiyero…why did you choose me" her hips were moving in tandem to his fingers now, but she was still thinking, which really was not on, she should have been a crumpled heap of pleasure right now, but this question was one he could not ignore "I didn't choose you...you crashed into me and you drew me to you. You were so...bold and different…and oddly charming that I couldn't help but fall in love with you"
He answered honestly…well ok he had crashed into her, he still remembered her furious eyes, flashing with sparks of…something, her hair had been pulled back from her cheekbones and she was wearing that ridiculous beanie cap, and realized he had never seen anything more beautiful. Not that he would admit it at the time. It was a melted chemistry set and a detention in which he finally rallied himself up enough to kiss her.
"No, you had someone you loved, why did you give that up for me?" She thought he had loved Galinda? How could she ever think that! The golden boy and girl of the Shiz HAD to be together, whether they liked it or not, it was an unwritten law of society. Still even then, he had noticed Galinda often looked at Elphaba with wistful glances and those longing sighs when they had studied together in the library and she would notice Elphaba in a corner, nose buried in some dusty tome or other…it was so obvious now. "When I did this most girls would have been a puddle...but your stronger...oh right...because she was...there are a hundred other Glinda's in this world, perfect, blonde, squealing, ditzy girls. But only One Elphaba" he kissed her nose "and there is perfection in imperfection Fae, otherwise how could you love me". She suddenly looked indignant, even through that haze of pleasure "don't say that…How many girls HAVE you done this to?" she panted. Oh well done Yero, man's guide to sex, never EVER mention ex-girlfriends when making love to the current. How was he going to cover this one up…the standard be romantic and make her feel so good she forgets anything else "I try not to think on the past" he moved his fingers faster now brushing his thumb over the hardened bundle of nerves at the top, bring a low moan from her lips "I'm thinking of right now...because you couldn't be any more perfect for me now and you always will be" Her eyes fluttered shut, obviously satisfied with his answer. Her cheeks took a darker green tint to them, and she bit her lip with pleasure, attempting to stifle the moans that would make the girls next door bang on the wall.
"Open your eyes" he whispered in awe of her pleasure filled face "I want to see them sparkle". She did as he asked forcing her eyes open, resisting the urge to close them and sink completely into pleasure and looking un-blinkingly into his eyes, his eyes were so deep, like pools she could drown in. "I love you" He was still watching her, observing every moment as he felt her inner muscles flutter around his fingers, she was close, but she was fighting. "I-Oh!" she couldn't manage words right now. "I know, I know, My Fae," He stroked her hair tenderly and kissed her cheek before whispering tenderly "let go". Elphaba closed her eyes but somehow she couldn't do it, there was a wall that was preventing her. "I don't-Oh!-know how!"
Fiyero stroked her cheek gently and worked his fingers still faster. "Yes you do, just…let the edges of your world go fuzzy". He looked deep into her eyes watching them go hazier and hazier with pleasure, waiting for her resistance to break.
Suddenly her back arched and she fought back the scream threatening to spill from her lips as hot, electric pleasure rushed up her spine. Yero quickly wrapped his arm around her, wiping his hand surreptitiously on the sheets before embracing her fully as she shuddered and whimpered "shhhh, I've got you" he whispered pressing his lips to her forehead. She finally relaxed with one last low moan and just panted in his arms. He let her bask in the afterglow for a bit and looked at her, there was a fine film of sweat on her, her hair was a mess and she was panting and flushed….and she had never looked more beautiful. Finally one eye flickered open "Welcome back to Oz Miss Elphaba did you enjoy your trip to the Other World?"
Elphaba opened her eyes, panting, "I…God" her words still escaped her so the only thing she could do was kiss him. "Is that my reward?". Her response was to kiss him harder. "I need to breathe Fae!" She pulled away with a sheepish grin "sorry" she murmured, voice full of satisfaction. "Ah, the green one has speech once more".
"Shut up!" Elphaba glared. Fiyero batted his eyelids "whyyyyyyyy?" If he thinks fluttering those perfect eyelashes over those gorgeous deep blue eyes that I could just-stop it you have to be firm with him. "Because I'll push you out of my room with out your clothes" Elphaba leaned back on the pillows with satisfaction at the look of mild horror passing over Fiyero's features "and then you'll have to explain to Madame Morrible why you are rushing about starkers through the girls Dormitory".
"Oh don't leave me so unsatisfied" Fiyero quoted for the Oziad "fair is fair Fae".
Elphaba smiled that was form her favorite part of the Oziad and Fiyero new that a tale of two forbidden lovers form different worlds, a little like them really "what satisfaction could I give you?" she answered with the response form the story leaning up and placing her hand against his cheek "repeat what you did last night and it will be me that's turned into a shuddering, incoherent mess…much like you a while ago" She smiled gently as she studied his face "anything for you" she whispered as she pressed her lips to his.

Meanwhile in another part of the dormitory, Galinda was considerably hung-over…and having a rather…interesting nightmare "Don't let the lettuce eat me!" Nessarose put down her cup of tea and wheeled herself over "Galinda, shut up! For sake of the unnamed God stop making that racket!" The fully clothed, make up smudged, hair bedraggled Galinda Upland of the UPPER Uplands woke with a start "huh?..." She winced as her head commenced throbbing painfully "Ow…shit" Galinda very rarely swore, except when she was in pain or extremely angry, and the pounding of her head was high up on her pain scale, swearing was acceptable she decided. She leaned forward and pressed her forehead to her knees in hope of alleviating some of the pain "My head feels like someone let a bunch of Munchkins trample over it". Nessarose Glared, sighed and wheeled away again "Please refrain form swearing in my room, Galinda, Papa told me that using obscene words makes the Un-named God weep for disrespect to the language he gave us". Galinda rolled her eyes "Stop being such a bloody prude Nessa, and give me a break, I feel like crap!"
Nessarose span shockingly quickly to face her, apparently furious "Oh I'm sorry Galinda. I don't think I shall be giving you anything, you show up at my room in the early hours, drunk out of your head" She leaned forward breathing heavily with rage "and then profess your love for my sister and pink and white lace thongs. I hardly find the need to give you any sort of thing!" And with that she turned back to her table, her tea and her book of "The Mysteries of the Un-named God". Galinda pouted from her crumpled heap on the sofa "Fine! I'll just go back to my suite then!" She stated heaving herself up.
"You're lucky that I let you stay here in the first place, good thing I'm so kind or you would have been in the cold and rain even longer than you were" Nessa sniffed, licking her thumb to turn a page of her book "Yeah with free nagging" Galinda muttered as she stumbled to the door, feeling oddly warm and slightly dizzy, adding to her throbbing head "right, I'm off". Nessa spun quickly knowing Nanny would wake if- "Don't slam the-" she winced as it banged shut with a large thump "door".

Fiyero buttoned his boots and watched out of the corner of his eye as Elphaba made some coffee in the small kitchenette of the room. She had just bathed herself in oil and was now wrapped in a towel and he could still see traces of it shimmering on her skin. He resisted the urge run over his fingers over her skin just to feel the new softness of it. He LOVED that oil. It was good for more than just bathing as he had shown Elphaba only two weeks ago.
When the door burst open, once again, Yero and Elphaba didn't even flinch, both of them waiting for an outburst, that surprisingly didn't come form the small blonde "Not interrupting anything am I?" Galinda said coldly. Elphaba smiled calmly "Galinda, I was just about to go and search for you and no your not" She tried to take her hand "now have you calmed down a bit?" Galinda nodded silently "Ok, now how about a cup of coffee?".
"Coffee would be good, my head is killing me" She slumped down on the bed pressing her knees to her forehead in an attempt to ease the pain. Elphaba poured her a cup and adding two sugars and a touch of milk, just the way Galinda liked it "I'm not surprised with the amount you drank last night" She gave another cup to Yero, black with one sugar, then her own, milk but no sugar. Yero rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly…this really couldn't get any worse "sooooooo" Galinda's head snapped up "don't pretend like this isn't awkward cos it isn't…I saw you making love it's nothing I haven't seen before" she said quietly and bitterly. Elphaba sighed "Galinda I'm sorry you had to see that but you didn't knock and…what do you mean it's nothing you haven't seen before?"
"I saw you two making love when I woke up in the middle of the night a week ago…your not very quiet you know" she glared pointedly at Elphaba "and you could have at least had the decency to keep to the deal we made". A faint blush appeared on Elphaba's cheeks, "Oh...I um…Anyone for breakfast, I'm famished". Galinda shook her head "No thank you, my stomach my reject its contents if provoked by food…Can we just cut to the chase please Elphie" Galinda swallowed biting back tears that threatened to spill over.
Elphaba didn't want to hear this, not now, not today, not ever "Why don't you lie down Galinda, I'll tell Morrible you can't make the seminar today because you're not well, and you certainly do look off colour and-" Galinda cut her off "I know you don't love me Elphie…and…and I know you never will-" Galinda sobbed slightly "But I'll put my feelings aside and let you and Fiyero be" her slight frame was trembling with the effort of not crying and Elphaba couldn't help but gasp at the amount of emotion in her voice when her knife slipped and cut her palm as she had began to slice an apple for breakfast "Ow…fuck" she hissed gazing at the red blood trickling down her palm. Fiyero hurried to her wiping away the blood with a tissue before pressing a kiss to the wound tenderly. Galinda watched them, they were so close, so in love she could see it in their eyes "you're perfect...he can give you something I can't…but I don't know what it is"
Elphaba turned to her abruptly "Galinda…" she bit her lip, not knowing what to say, What COULD she say to that? Her best friends heart was breaking and it was all her fault.
"Well its true isn't it? But please tell me, why I'm not adequate for you, I loved you first! I loved you the first moment I saw you, I may not have shown it, I may have been with him, just to convince myself I was NORMAL but I was there first! What does he have I don't!?" Elphaba was taken aback by her harsh tone and the way she looked at Fiyero, the jealousy in her eyes taking her breath away. "Galinda, don't be like that your not-"
"TELL ME!" She snapped suddenly on her feet right in front of her eyes full of tears threatening to trail down her cheeks "HE'S A HE. HE'S MY OTHER HALF! AND..." Elphaba took a deep breath realizing shouting would get her nowhere "Galinda you're my best friend, you're a different kind of love, I want to talk to you... Not for you to... it's just because okay?!" Galinda grabbed Elphaba's shoulders, clinging desperately, searching the green girl's eyes for some form of love "NO! It is not "just because okay"! I would have thought that some one as CLEVER as you would be able to tell me WHY you don't love me!? Am i ugly!? Is it because Im stupid! Tell me and I'll change!" Galinda was clasping her so tightly her nails were starting to dig into Elphaba's flesh making her wince…Galinda finally relinquished her, bottom lip trembling "please" she whispered pitifully."Galinda! What am I supposed to tell you? I'm not that way... I don't want a girlfriend when I speak to you, I want a best friend" She whispered kindly tilting Galinda's chin up so their eyes met "someone I can sit and laugh with, and talk bout my problems, I don't want tension, I just want…Galinda my best friend, that's all I ever wanted and all I'll ever need from you."
"I…I…I'm sorry" tears welled in her eyes. Her conflicting emotions tumbled in her stomach making her feel even more confused then she was in the first place! I think Elphie is beautiful, and I love her…but do I love her like a friend…like she says, would I really want to change our relationship? Elphaba wiped a tear from Galinda's cheek with her thumb, letting her hand rest there softly "Galinda…look, if you said this before Fiyero, maybe I would have but I've found my purpose, now, tell me, is this what you want?" And with that she stooped, pressed her lips to Galinda's and kissed her deeply.
Galinda's eyes fluttered closed momentarily, taking in the feel of green lips on her own perfect pink ones. She expected sparks to flow through her being, to fill her with warmth and excitement. Instead all she felt was awkward. Quickly she pulled away from Elphaba, trying to answer the question posed before."Um… that was… nice… I guess." Fiyero's mouth was wide open in shock, and Galinda imagined that seeing your girlfriend kiss another woman could prove to be quite the shock. Elphaba's gaze never left Galinda not for a moment; her face was neutral as it had been before. "But is it really what you want?" she asked softly, voice even. Galinda fiddled with her fingers looking anywhere but at Elphaba. "I'm not sure…" she confessed "what is it supposed to feel like when you kiss someone you love?" she begged for the answer, blue eyes swelling in emotion.
Elphaba's honesty did nothing to help ease her mind, only managing to muffle her thoughts more. "I don't know... Only u can know that... so ask yourself... is it me you want?"
Galinda bit her lip lightly, a trait only done when her mind was clearly troubled beyond reason. "I didn't feel the fireworks or… Or the want I was expecting to feel...is that what you feel when you kiss Fiyero?" she asked hopeful, her eyes filled with such innocence that Elphaba fought to catch her breath, the torment in those eyes. Elphaba shook her head lightly, turning to look at Fiyero, trying desperately to answer honestly. Thinking purely of what he inspired in her, she allowed her gaze to flow over him, from his face to his feet, her heart still beating faster at the mere sight of him. She turned back to Galinda thinking that the words that filled her mind were nothing like the real thing, not even close to the way she felt when his blessed lips met hers. "Galinda... kissing Fiyero it's like my entire world is gone and there is only him, there's tingle and Love and everything just melts away, and it's as though your kissing them for the first time, when you know your not, but that doesn't matter... you feel complete, whole…" she couldn't help the smile that filled her again as she glanced his way, Fiyero's expression held much the same as her own, elation at the thoughts of one another and the emotion they inspired.
Galinda frowned unhappily "I...I didn't feel that…so why did I think I loved you? Have I gone insane?" her hand flew to her head, which now pounded harder than ever. Elphaba noticed how pale she had become in the moments that she had been within their room. "I think you're just confused." Elphaba placed her hands on the sides of Galinda's face, moving her fingers lightly to wipe away the smudged remains of her friend's pretense. "Do you really love me? In that way?" she asked gently, knowing the answer before it left the blonde's mouth. "Yes I certainly care for you… I don't know what I'd do without you" Galinda pulled a face "but I don't know if I…" she changed tactics. "You know how you dared me to kiss the people I wanted to have sex with?" Elphaba nodded slowly "I wanted to kiss ShenShen too! But I thought I was just confused about my feelings for her…." She cried out in frustration, hanging her head in her hands in despair "unnamed God my head hurts!" Elphaba smirked, standing up. "Galinda... you're confused alright... but not in the way u think" she tried hard not to laugh at her friend's blatant miss interpretation of her own feelings. "Stop saying I'm confused don't you think I know that?!" Galinda groaned flopping backwards onto the bed.
Elphaba fought the urge to roll her eyes in frustration, sometimes Galinda was so thick! I meant you're confused about the way u feel for people!!! Galinda think about it... you'll soon understand" Elphaba moved to find a plaster for her hand, perhaps a bit late to do so but the stickiness of blood was driving her insane. "Well I KNOW I don't like boys" Galinda mused strongly, sitting up briefly to look at Fiyero "no offence" Fiyero rolled his eyes "don't worry. None taken" Elphaba smirked slightly, the awkward stance Fiyero took showing how uncomfortable the conversation was for him to witness, as Galinda went on a man bashing rant for the moment. "They're all hard and mean and…" she continued on and on before trailing off to a murmur. Elphaba sprung to action then. "Galinda, Sweetie, you need to sleep a bit, things will be clearer when you've cleared your head." As though on cue, the blonde yawned loudly. "I could take a nap… Nessa's sofa is not comfy." Elphaba moved to tuck her in sweetly, pulling the covers to her chin and soothing back her hair, "You rest" Elphaba smiled at the now half conscious Galinda. "Thank you Elphie" she muttered rolling over onto her side with another yawn before smiling slightly "oh and just because I'm asleep it doesn't mean I can't hear you and your 'kinkiness' at it...I do not want to be awoken by your 'wanton moans' thank you very much" Elphaba smirked lightly, the ease of their friendship once again in place. "Don't worry, we won't... I think that Fiyero and I should go for a walk, check on Boq and everyone... See that they are in the land of the living" Galinda's snore was her only answer, to which she bent down and kissed her forehead softly "Sleep well my pretty."
Fiyero moved round to wrap his arms around her thin waist, smiling proudly. "You handled that well" Elphaba leaned back into his warm embrace, resting her head below his chin, marveling at his height compared to her own. "Believe me; Inside I'm a puddle of mush" it was then that she realized she was still in her towel and practically naked. "I think I'd better get dressed" she pulled away from Fiyero's arms "be quiet" she whispered, kissing Fiyero's cheek and moving to get her dress.
"Why am I going to make noi—"Fiyero's mouth went dry instantly as the towel flowed freely onto the floor, exposing her naked form before his eyes, how beautiful she was. He groaned lightly to her great amusement and she knew she'd made her point. The way he leered over her, his azure eyes following the contours of her body with perfect accuracy. She rolled her eyes lightly muttering "men. So predictable" disapprovingly, to which he replied "women, why are they always so damn irritable? Especially the green ones?" Elphaba giggled lightly, whispering back to him with a smirk "Because, my good man, you're under my spell." Fiyero quickly did a spin in the middle of the floor, singing softly "she's got a spell on me… and the rest of the words don't work…" Elphaba quickly rushed at him, only her undergarments hugging her small frame, she smacked him lightly on the arm "SHH" she hissed "OW THAT HURT!" he whined, realizing that he was now talking far too loudly, he hushed down "sorry"
Elphaba rolled her eyes, quickly pulling on the rest of her garments, and braiding her hair with ease. "Come on then my love" she pulled him to the door quickly. "So… are we going to check on all the hung over people? This'll be fun." Fiyero muttered "Do you think Boq'll be hung over? Or drunk? Half and half?" Fiyero asked stupidly, the subject of Boq sending cringes down her spine. "Ew, I just hope he doesn't try to kiss me again" she muttered. Fiyero shuddered beside her "that was just wrong" a smirk filled his features "although, I did like you begging me for a kiss after." Elphaba scowled"I did not beg you, Mr. 'Can I at least get a kiss to wash the taste out'" Fiyero's eyes flashed then "right!" he quickly swooped her up over his shoulder, pulling her out the door and quickly pinning her to the wall outside the dorm. "Fiyero!" she hissed, glancing nervously up and down the corridors, it would not do to have anyone seeing them like this. Fiyero chuckled softly "everyone knows we are a couple darling...well...I think people heard you this morning" Elphaba shook her head, ignoring him "I know it's just.... what if someone..." Fiyero rolled his eyes speaking over her in his silky smooth voice. "And if we weren't a couple I wouldn't do this in public" he kissed her passionately pinning her even harder to the wall.
A sense of thrill ran though her as she kissed him back, when another thought crossed her mind "wh- if- mm - momoble sees us mossing?"she mumbled against his lips, still firmly pressed to her own. "What?" he pulled back. Elphaba instantly felt panic take her "what if Madame Morrible sees us and catches you? You know you're not meant to be here this time of day!" Fiyero chuckled mischievously "I happen to know from a VERY reliable source that Morrible will be sleeping in today" Elphaba raised a curious eyebrow "Oh do you now?" she kissed his lips softly pulling back "and how reliable are these sources?" she kissed him again, his soft lips intoxicating. He shrugged "I snuck into her room and set her alarm clock for 10:00am" he smirked quickly, lifting her up against the wall, so her legs had to wrap around his waist to keep from sliding down, his lips began tracing her neck softly as she giggled mercilessly "You didn't?!" quickly his lips met hers in an intense kiss that would have shattered the very ground below their feet, her eyes fluttered closed from the sensation, when the kiss broke and his lips flew to her collar bone, which he sucked gently. "Fiyero" she moaned breathlessly, opening her eyes and gasping in shock and horror. "FIYERO! Stop!"
The prince shook his head, still sucking, "not right now, I'm a bit busy" Elphaba felt the mixture of emotions flow through her, his lips felt good but he had to stop! "Fiyero, it's rather important!" she struggled to push him off of her but his grip held her fast.
Too late.
"Fiyero Tigelaar and Elphaba Thropp! WHAT do you think you are DOING!?" Morrible's voice boomed loudly, making the very wall vibrate with the force. Instantly Fiyero froze, quickly letting Elphaba get down to her feet and pulling away from her, a small patch of wet and darker green coated her collar where his lips had once been; quickly she moved to cover it with her hand as though the woman before her had not already seen. "shi—Shiz." Fiyero muttered under his breath, looking very much like a kicked puppy. "I will ask you again... what were you doing?" Elphaba slinked back in embarrassment, wishing very much to melt on the spot and not have to face the wrath of Horrible Morrible. "ummm…" Fiyero muttered guilty as sin. "Sneaked into my apartment did you? Well YOU can see ME in my apartment tomorrow and clean it top to bottom Prince or no Prince of the Arjikis and you Elphaba—"
"But that's not fair!" Elphaba blurted out when Morrible's gaze turned to her she gulped lightly "oops." Morrible looked at her with disgust "I expected better from you. THIS is a hall of learning, not of…" her nose wrinkled distastefully "inappropriate behavior that should be kept behind closed doors."
Elphaba bowed her head shamefully "Yes Madame... I'm sorry Madame, but it's not Fiyero's fault... I made him do it..." Fiyero's head shot up in confusion. "Last time I checked I ENJOYED doing that" Morrible looked back at him and Fiyero flushed bright red, she turned back to Elphaba. "Explain" Elphaba shot Fiyero a look. "Fiyero. SHUSH. I did it Madame, I made him do it.. and I -- told him to sneak in and set your alarm and I was the one that suggested him staying over and coming into the hall, but you see Galinda's not well she's asleep and I was ---"
Morrible nodded curtly "I see...that means you can BOTH clean my apartment 6:00pm tomorrow" Elphaba let her head fall in shame. "Yes Madame." Beside her Fiyero nodded vigorously. Morrible snarled at them both with disgust "Off with you. Go on. Out of my sight!"
Elphaba swiftly took Fiyero's hand, leading him away from the head with a sigh of relief, she pulled him quickly out the door onto the grounds, not saying a word, when suddenly they rounded a corner and Fiyero yanked her harshly to a stop, anger flashing in his eyes. "What the hell Fae?! Why did you take the blame for me? It was my fault!" Elphaba was taken back by his harshness, quickly yanking her hand from his grasp. "Fiyero, I'm her student, I'm the one she's taken an interest in, I couldn't let her punish you, because it would have been much worse" his face softened instantly, his hand flying up to cup her cheek tenderly. "You would do that for me?" he asked softly, almost in shock. She nodded quickly, honest to the bone. "Of course I would" she watched as his anger disappeared and he leaned forward to kiss her tenderly on the forehead, before taking her hand in his own and leading her down the way towards the boys dorms.
"Are we going to find Boq and the others or what?" he asked softly. Elphaba broke out into a grin, thoughts of the rest of the day filling her head and making her happy. "Lets go... Ooh and then maybe we can take a walk through by the park... classes aren't on and we got time to kill... Then maybe we can go to the library and study for that Ozian politics test u have on Monday?" Fiyero groaned loudly "I forgot about that." Then he smiled his dazzling smile, making Elphaba forget to breathe for a moment "If I study well, do I get a reward?"
Elphaba smirked back at him, moving closer and looking out across campus "we'll see."
