Chapter 7

The next few days were fairly relaxed, they both went to their classes, and met every night in their room. Glinda saw Fiyero a few times and went to look for Elphie because she was scared and Elphie comforted her with a soft kiss on her lips and a tight hug.

They had good days and almost good nights not counting the one that Elphie woke up almost screaming and Glinda helped her go back to sleep drying her tears and humming a baby's lullaby.

"oh thank's god it's Friday" Glinda said as soon as Elphie entered the door.

"I know, I'm happy too my sweet" She said giving the blonde a whisper kiss on the lips.

"Goodie!" Glinda said almost bubbling away and Elphie chuckled at the expression.

"My sweet girlfriend… I think we should go on a date…"

"YES!"

"Let me finish my sweet, I think you'll like the idea even better"

"Ooohh! Tell me"

"I think we should go on a date… right now" she said winking

"I love it! Yes! But where?"

"That my girl, is a surprise"

"I love suprises!"

"I am aware that you do my sweet, go get changed into casual clothing alright?"

"okie Elphie!"

She said and started taking off her clothes making Elphie blush and Glinda giggle.

"Oh Elphie, this is beautiful" She said looking at a beautiful park, with a lake and some benches.

"Nothing is more beautiful than you, but I agree, this is very nice" She smiled "and we are here, because in 10 minutes the sunset will start"

"Really Elphie?" She looked at her love with sparkling blue eyes.

"I take you like the idea?"

"Oh, I do, I do!"

"I'm glad" The sat on a bench facing the lake and cuddled when they realized they were alone.

The sunset started, the sky turned into a bunch of colors and Glinda sighed happily.

"I really love you Elphie" Elphie heard Glinda say with her little girl's voice, smiled kissing the top of her head and said "I love you too my sweet girl"

They spent the rest of the sunset in each others arms quietly, just feeling their company and love. When the sunset was over, and it was getting dark Elphie wrapped an arm around Glinda's waist and walked together to their dorm giggling about anything and everything.

"I am so tired!" Glinda said pouting a little.

"Let's change into our nightclothes and I'll show you something"

"Ooooh! Okie!" Elphie chuckled and changed into nightclothes a little nervous about showing her what only her father knew, and hurt her with it.

Glinda came out expectantly and kissed Elphie softly. "I'm ready whenever you are" she said wiggling.

Elphie took a deep breath "This is for you my sweet" she said and started singing.

The whispers in the morning

Of lovers sleeping tight

Are rolling like thunder now

As I look in your eyes

I hold on to your body

And feel each move you make

Your voice is warm and tender

A love that I could not forsake

'Cause I am your lady

And you are mine

Whenever you reach for me

I'll do all that I can

Lost is how

I'm feeling lying in your arms

When the world outside's too

Much to take

That all ends when I'm with you

Even though there may be times It seems I'm far away

Never wonder where I am

'Cause I am always by your side

We're heading for something

Somewhere I've never been

Sometimes I am frightened

But I'm ready to learn

Of the power of love

Glinda stood still, speechless, she couldn't believe Elphie, her Elphie had that voice, powerful yet sweet and comforting. She could sing as well, but never like Elphie could.

"That- tha-that…. Was a- amazing, I- I mean…"

"Thank you my sweet I am flattered" she said blushing a little.

"when did you learn? How?"

"That's a story for later my sweet, now let's sleep, you are tired remember?" she smiled

"I'm impressed but I agree, I am a little tired" She said and laid down in her bed, Elphie tucked her in, kissed her softly and went to her own bed.

"Elphie?" She heard Glinda say after a while.

"Yes my girl?"

"I've never loved anyone like I love you"

"Well, I've never loved anyone like I do you" She smiled and Glinda drifted off to sleep.

/ The song Elphie sings is "The Power of Love" by Celine Dion.
