This one is for LifelongLeahstar, who asked for a drabble where "Galinda gets a pimple/zit/acne/that ugly thing/whatever you want to call it". (I love your word choices XD). I hope this does your idea justice! And sorry it took so long for me to get this up! I'd give an excuse, but I don't really have one, so SORRY!

Elphaba was awoken by a high pitched scream. Shooting up in bed, she immediately feared the worst. Her vision slightly blurred, mainly because she was still half-asleep, she swung her head around, searching for something that could be wrong. But nothing seemed wrong. Everything was in its place, even Galinda, who sat in front of her vanity. She believed for a moment that she had imagined it and made to lay back down, but then her blonde roommate let out yet another high-pitched noise.

"Elphie, help me!" She cried, and Elphaba assumed something was wrong. Swinging her legs over the edge of her bed, she tried to find a problem.

"What's wrong?"

"This!" The blonde exclaimed, turning her head so that the green girl could see the small-but-ever-so-present pimple on her face.

"Oz, Galinda, I thought you were dying!"

"I might as well be!" The blonde huffed dramatically, extremely upset. "I'm going out tonight! What am I supposed to do? I mean, look at it! It's hideodeous!"

Elphaba couldn't help but let out a small laugh. "You'll be okay. It isn't that big of a deal."

"Not that big of a deal?" She cried. "You might as well say that it isn't a big deal if someone stops breathing!"

"Glin, can't you just cover it up with makeup?"

The blonde looked at her friend like she was crazy. "You think I should cover it up? Is it that ugly?" She started to cry a bit.

Elphaba sighed and reached out for her friend's hand. "Glin, I'm just saying that, if you don't want people to see it, you can always cover it up. But I'm not saying that I feel like you need to. It's just a pimple. Everyone gets them."

"I don't."

Elphaba chuckled a little. "Welcome to the club."

The blonde looked confused. "What club?"

"Never mind." The green girl said, smiling and shaking her head. "Look, you'll be okay. Don't worry about it. It's just a pimple. It'll be gone in a couple of days."

The blonde smiled a little. "Okay. Thanks, Elphie."

"Any time, Glin."

The green girl sighed. Finally, she had actually gotten some sense into that blissful blonde brain of her friend's.

"What are you doing?" She asked when the blonde locked their dorm room door and pushed a chair in front of it.

"Duh, creating a barricade. What does it look like I'm doing?"

"Why, though?"

"I can't risk someone walking in on me when I'm looking like this!" She pointed at the pimple on her nose.

Elphaba just nodded. She should have known it wasn't possible to change the blondes feelings about what it took to stay popular.

If you haven't already, PLEASE do check out my blog. The web address is in my bio. I'd really appreciate it! It's a way easier way to update you guys on what's going on with my stories.

A real quick update: I'm working like crazy on a new fic. I had a sudden need to write something less fluffy than what I've been doing. So I'm writing an AU based off of my favorite book series, Darkest Powers by Kelley Armstrong. It should be up within the next two or three weeks, so keep your eyes peeled. It will be almost entirely prewritten.

And I'm on a real writing high, so maybe you'll get your 'Galinda's Guide' and 'Thank Goodness' updates, too. No promises.

Don't forget to give me your prompts!

Sorry for the long A/N. Bye!
