A/N: Hey guys. Wow thank you so much to everyone who reviewed I did not expect that many!

Musicalgal3: yeah it is a bit weird but I'm basing Elphaba of what my experience will be. I will be starting university when I'm 17 so Elphaba did the same. Galinda will explain the rest.

Again huge thanks to Exoticpeachblossom. If you haven't read her stories go check them out. They're amazifying.

Fiyero awoke the next morning with a slight headache. He hadn't drunk as much last night as he normally would which was strange. Grunting he sat up in his bed, everything that had happened in the last day came rushing back. With a groan he fell back on to the pillows. First days of school suck! He turned to sneak a look at the time and sighing, reluctantly got out of bed and stumbled into the bathroom.

He emerged from the bathroom minutes later showered and dressed for the day in a smart white long sleeve shirt with a blue vest and another pair of those ridiculously tight off-white pants. Before he left the room he stole a quick glance at the mirror. Satisfied with his appearance he left the room.

As he strolled across campus in search of coffee he came across the blonde from the night before looking at some flowers.

"Hi." He said nervously

She looked up and smiled when saw him. "Hello there. What can I help you with?"

"Oh um I was hoping you could point me in the direction of coffee."

She laughed "I was actually on my way to get some myself." She stepped closer and looked him over. "Come on I'll show you."

"Thank you. I'm Fiyero by the way." He liked this blonde.

"Oh sugar I know who you are." She says laughing. "I'm Galinda but when I'm teaching I'm Miss Upland."

"You're a teacher?" gasps Fiyero in shock.

"Yep this is my second year. I teach fashion design. It's a fairly new class." Galinda said frowning slightly. "It took a lot of persuasion to get Morrible to agree." Her smile finally returning. Fiyero chuckled at the blonde. She sure was funny.

They walked across the campus towards a small yellow building not far from the Main Office, talking and laughing at each other's observations. Though he was enjoying their conversation, Fiyero was so curious about the green woman he had seen twice since arriving at Shiz that he had to ask.

"Who was that girl you were with last night?" He asked suddenly startling Galinda.

"Oh Elphie, She's my best friend."

"Elphie?" Fiyero asked slightly confused.

"Elphaba actually but again if she's teaching she's Miss Thropp." She said proudly.

"She's a teacher too?" gasps Fiyero.

"Yeah this is her third year. She teaches political science." Chuckling she says the next part more to herself than to Fiyero, "She always was good at that." Jerking back to reality she turns back and smiles at the prince. "I believe she told you she was a teacher last night."

"Yes she did." He said mentally slapping himself. "I don't mean to offend but you two look a little young to be teachers."

Galinda laughed. "Yes well Elphaba being the genius she is finished two years early and she helped me be proud of being not as...well blonde as everybody else thought I was and I ended up finishing a year early too."

"Oh." Was all Fiyero could say. Luckily they had reached the small cafe saving them from an awkward silence.

The cafe looked small from the outside but inside it was quite large. It was warm and inviting. The walls were a deep purple with greenish brown vines on the walls. It had three different rooms but somehow they were all joined. In one room were tables for couples, the next room was for parties and in the last room, there were tables for different size groups and a bar-like area minus the alcohol.

Galinda led him to the third room. It was rather empty so it wasn't hard to find a table to sit at after they got their drinks. After a few minutes of silence Fiyero decided to learn more

"So what made you become a teacher?" He asked Galinda.

"Well I never wanted to growing up. I had always planned to marry a prince or someone of high social standing and live happily ever after." She said as she took a sip of her drink.

"So what changed that?" he said thinking that was a perfectly normal plan.

"Miss Elphaba Thropp did." She said with a laugh.

"How?" he asked genuinely interested.

"Well she helped me realise that there was more to life than money and dresses and who you're married to. She showed me another side to me, a side that wanted to help people. So here I am." She finished with a gesture towards herself and Shiz.

"Wow. You sure speak highly of this Elphaba."

"Well of course. She changed me for the better." She said with a smile, suddenly it faded, her eyes widened and she gasped.

"Galinda?" he asked cautiously.

"Oh my Oz I'm going to be late! I have to go it was lovely talking with you Master Tiggular but I'm afraid I have to go. Goodbye. Have an amazifying first day!" She said as she practically flew out of the cafe. It took Fiyero a while to figure out exactly what she had said because she had said it so fast.

Suddenly it dawned on him to that he was going to be late too. He ran as fast as he could to his room to grab his map, schedule and books. Running as fast as he could he reached the building of his first class with barely a minute left. As he opened the door and ran through he bumped into someone and they both went sprawling backwards, books and papers flying everywhere.

"What in Oz name doing you think you're doing running like that?" he heard someone say. When he sat up he gasped it was the green girl... what's her name... Elphaba.

"Well." She snapped.

"Hey why don't you use those glasses and watch where you're going or does being green make you oblivious to your surroundings?" snaps Fiyero.

"Excuse me!" Elphaba said her voice dangerously low and dripping with hatred.

Fiyero immediately regretted what he said but hearing her tone now made the hairs on the back of his neck stand up.

"What? Does the green affect your hearing?" Oz dammit Fiyero shut your mouth you brainless fool.

By now Elphaba had risen to her feet and now towered over him still on the floor, a menacing glare in her eyes. She pointed her finger right at his face.

"If you think just because you're a prince you can say whatever you want you're sorely mistaken Master Tiggular." The fire in her eyes was enough to make anyone run scared. He gulped and shifted uncomfortably under her gaze. "Now get to class before I give you a detention or something much worse." She said pointing in the direction of the classrooms.

He scrambled to his feet, gathered his stuff and made his way into the classroom never looking back. Oz if he gets her as a teacher he's dead meat.

He made it through the class only falling asleep twice. The rest of the day went well. No more run ins with Miss Thropp, which he was extremely grateful for. Now he only had one more class to get through and this day would be over.

Making his way down the hall he thought about what he would do tonight. He was a prince after all, and he had a reputation to protect. He was pulled from his thoughts when he reached the door. Taking a deep breath he opened it. Come on Tiggular last class you can do this. On the other side of the door though was his worst nightmare.

Standing at the board was none other than Elphaba Thropp in all her green glory. He stopped dead in his tracks mouth wide open. This will not be good.

"Master Tiggular I wasn't aware you were a bug catcher." Her voice pulled him out of his state of shock. She didn't even turn to look at him. How did she know it was him?

"Are you coming in or do you plan to be our personal Vinkun statue?" That brought him out of stupor. Walking in, he quickly found a seat and took it. This is gonna be a long class.

Elphaba had just finished having a meeting with a few of the other teachers about the upcoming school year. They had discussed a lot of the things she had hoped they would. As she reached the door she was thinking over all the things they had discussed. Her minds still on the meeting, she reached the door. Suddenly it flew open and she was knocked to the ground. All she saw was those silly tight off-white pants and she immediately knew who it was.

"What in Oz name do you think you're doing running like that?" She said feeling rather irritated. Does this guy want to get any more annoying?

He didn't answer which annoyed her further.

"Well." His next sentence however both shocked and infuriated her. She could feel the anger rise within her. It took all she had just to keep her powers in check.

"Excuse me!" she said making her anger clear in her voice. Oz this boy really wanted to get hurt. Then he had the audacity to insult her again. This time she almost lost it. She got up and stalked towards him. She bent down and stuck her finger in his face.

"If you think just because you're a prince you can say whatever you want you're solely mistaken Master Tiggular." Being a prince gave him no right at all. She was so angry at him it was a wonder he wasn't on fire already. He squirmed under her intense gaze which pleased her immensely.

"Now get to class before I give you a detention or something much worse." And that I know I'll regret. To be honest she would have liked to unleash her powers on him but she liked her job too much and had worked way too hard to get it. She watched him leave and let out an annoyed sigh. She hoped with every fibre of her being that dear princey would not be in her class.

She made through the rest of the day with minimal trouble. Yeah there were the usual jokes and teasing about her skin colour but she expected that and her encounter that morning helped her ignore them, after all none of them were worse than what was said then. She was actually happy with this year's bunch of students that came into her class. A lot of them were hard-working students who were here to learn and not just socialise like a lot of the other kids were when she was a student.

Now it was time to prepare for her last class of the day. She had not seen the prince since their little run that morning and for that, she couldn't be happier. If she never saw him again she could die a happy woman.

It was right before class started and most of the students were already here. She stood at the board writing her name for the current class to see. The door opened again and out of the corner of her eye she saw a much too familiar face. And I'd almost made it through the day without seeing him again. He had his mouth wide open and she couldn't resist.

"Master Tiggular I wasn't aware you were a bug catcher." She said smirking. She watched as his eyes widened in wonder. This was too good.

Finally she turned to face him and sighing she said "Are you coming in or do you plan on becoming our personal Vinkun statue?"

That seemed to get through to him. She watched him take his seat. This is gonna be a long class...and year.
