For an hour or so, the two girls just chatted and debated random things. Elphaba discovered something shocking about Galinda. She actually had a brain and was very capable of using it. "So, I really don't get what people have against Animals or animals." The blond shook her head, blond curls bouncing.

"Humans just don't understand that there really are no logical differences other than the fact that some Animals have fur." Elphaba replied.

"Well, in all due respect, I have been called a Cat before. I certainly do not have fur."

"I've been called Donkey, but I doubt it was the least bit complimentary." Elphaba muttered sarcastically.

Galinda smiled. "Well, Elphie, you certainly don't seem like an ass to me. If you care so much for the Animal's I'll have you know, our family is vegetarian. It's an old family tradition. You'll very well like it here."

After a moment of silence to ensure it was alright to start a new subject, Elphaba said, "I thought I saw an insane man running through the streets. He had this weird blue diamond pattern on his arms."

"Blue diamonds? Fifi didn't get out of the carriage did he?" Galinda asked herself.

"Guilty." A voice yawned, and two arms stretched up from the back.

Elphaba looked at him, trying to keep all looks of recognition off her face. "Don't they usually keep hay for the horses to eat back there?" She muttered.

"I see you're still a sarcastic twig, Miss Elphaba." The man dusted himself off.

"I haven't a clue what you mean. Since you already know my name, what's yours?"

The man raised an eyebrow. "You don't remember me. Seems you did at the store."

"Galinda, dear, is this Fiyero. He's confusing me to no end." Elphaba turned away, her eyes would fail to remain blank. Knowing he remembered her just as well as she him.

"Fifi, stop confusifying Elphie! This isn't your childhood friend; she lived in Munchkinland. She'll be staying with us until your father calls you back to Vinkus."

"Really now? I didn't realize there were two green girls named Elphaba." Fiyero rested on the side of the carriage.

"Criticize my skin, Mister Fiyero! I don't even know you well enough to see if this is a joke! You've certainly gone down on my list." Elphaba turned back around, away from her best friend whom she was trying to find. Why she didn't "remember" him was a different story. It would break Galinda's heart. The Galinda she just met was dating her husband. Galinda had already done so much for her, why couldn't she help out.

"Sorry, Fae." Fiyero looked down.

Elphaba's eyes widened at that name. "What?" She croaked.

"Fae." Fiyero smiled, knowing well enough that she recognized it. "Remember?"

"I believe not. No one's called me that since before my mother died." She tried to make it seem like her mother called her that, but in actuality, it was that same prince to call her that.

"Fiyero! Leave the poor girl alone!" Galinda snapped, sending fierce glares at her boyfriend. "Elphie, please ignore him. He's not usually this cruel. Fifi's just a little grumpy from waking up."

"Funny thing, I wasn't ever asleep."

"Then why would you decide to wake up?" Elphaba muttered.

"Cuz you girls started talking about me." Fiyero wrapped his arms around the two.

While Galinda struggled to escape the grasp, Elphaba simply grabbed his hand to hers, put his thumb in her mouth, and bit it.

"You might want to wash your hands."

"You haven't changed at all." He commented. Shaking his hand in the back seat.

"Oh very much so. You just can't see because you're a psychopath." Elphaba glared at him. How dare he. A married man dating another girl. If Galinda knew about their marriage, she would go insane. Terribly, terribly insane.

"Why, Miss Elphaba, I didn't expect you to say such a thing. You were always SO good at controlling your temper." He smirked in her face.

She continued glaring, and he continued smirking. Galinda glared at Fiyero and hissed for him to stop. "I'll get you good at home!" She turned away, rejected. Elphaba soon following.

"You ruined the game." Fiyero said.

"Unlike you, I care about Galinda's feelings and would much rather assist her than stare at you all day." Galinda hmmph'ed at Fiyero, and the girls began talking again.


"Momsy! Popsicle! I'm home!!!" Galinda cooed into the large estate.

"I think you made yourself clear." Elphaba muttered, carrying in the load of dresses Galinda had bought her. "And I still don't see why it's necessary you bought me all of these."

"Oh, Elphie! You will!" Galinda smiled brightly. "Trust me."

"Galinda, my sweet girl!" A man came rolling up in a wheelchair. Elphaba was reminded of her sister and brother. "How I missed you so!"

"Daddy, I was only gone for the weekend." Galinda giggled hugging her father tightly. Elphaba felt a pang of jealousy in her heart.

"And whom is this beautiful friend of yours?" He seemed to be completely oblivious to her skin. Even the sweet Galinda had been a bit shocked out of perfection from this phenomenon.

"Elphaba Thropp, Thropp Third Descending. It's a pleasure meeting you Mister Upland." Elphaba bowed respectfully.

"Daddy," Galinda said sweetly, almost innocently. "She's got nowhere else to go. She can stay with us, right?"

"Watch this." Fiyero whispered to Elphaba. The green girl frowned slightly at him. "She bats her eyes... 'please, Daddy?'"

"Please, Daddy?" Galinda begged.

"Quivering lip... and..."

"Okay, sweetheart." Mister Upland sighed defeatedly.

Fiyero gave Elphaba an amused smile. "Works every time." Elphaba gave him a smile.

"That's why she didn't get it when I mentioned my spoiled sister." Elphaba commented.

"Nessa? How is she nowadays?" He asked her.

"I don't know what you mean."

"Fae, I just heard you say you were the Thropp Third Descending. Nessarose Thropp. Melena Thropp. Frexspar Thropp." Fiyero gave her a hopeful look.

"Are you a stalker, Fiyero Tiggular?" Elphaba snapped.

"You may not remember me, but I remember you." He looked down for a bit before locking her gaze. "But I'll make you remember me somehow..." Elphaba closed her eyes in order to not blow her cover.


That's all I have written in advanced. The rest was stupidly deleted because of a phone stupidly not being able to handle a fall and breaking so I had to get a new one and apparently it didn't remember how far I'd gotten in this... Grrr it was really good, too!
