Cheer Up, Biq!
A/N: Wow, thanks for all the response from the last chapter, I really appreciate it...:) And I might starting another Wicked fanfic, which involves us teenagers putting up a play production of Wicked in a local theater. If I do post that, then what part will you guys play? Oh, and if ever I do put up this fanfic, I'd need a Glinda and Elphaba standby, and since I want it to happen, I'll need a Nessa standby, too. I'll update you guys on this project soon:)
Disclaimer: I don't own Wicked. All rights go to their respective owners, and not me, I just like writing and reading fanfiction, thank you very much:)
The gang were playing a game of truth or dare. When the arrow pointed to Boq, Glinda asked, "So, Biq."
"It's BOQ!" He yelled, making everyone stare at him in surprise. He was never that sensitive of his name. And another reason on why they were surprised was that he was shouting like that to Glinda, of all people.
"Are you alright, Boq?" Nessa asked in concern. She never saw him that upset over his name before either.
"I'm fine. And sorry, Glinda, I didn't mean to yell at you " He replied.
Glinda nodded understandingly but then asked, "Now really Boq, is everything alright? You seem moodified today."
They were guessing Boq responded because for 1) Glinda was showing genuine concern for Boq, and 2) Glinda actually called him by his real name.
"I-it's just that. I was really close to my father and...well, he died today."
Everybody suddenly felt sympathetic for Boq as they expressed their condolences.
"How many years ago has it been?" Emily asked.
"Well, around ten." Boq responded after a few minutes.
"Oh Boq, you could've told us earlier." Hope said, making Boq manage a small smile.
"It's alright, it isn't any of your fault, anyway. If you excuse me, I'm going to my room." He said, standing up and quietly heading to his room.
"Wow, he must've been really close to his father." Nia mused.
"I'm surprised too. In most stories I've read he was close to his mother." Elisa said, being careful not to use the word "fanfiction" in front of Elphaba so that no replay of yesterday would happen.
"Yeah, I want to do something for him, I think we all do." Chantal said, making the rest of them nod. So for a few minutes, all of them thought hard on what to do for the Munchkin boy.
Glinda gasped and squealed in a very high octave, making Elphaba have to cover her ears. "Glinda, what did I tell you about screeching in front of me?"
"It's squealing, Elphie. And sorry, I just thought of an idea on what to do for poor Biq." She said.
"What is it?" Nelly asked.
There was a soft rap at the door. Boq sighed before saying, "Come in."
Nessa wheeled herself in, holding a pen, paper and a few other stationary things. "Hey, Boq." She said, making Boq smile slightly.
"What are those?" Boq asked curiously.
"Well, we decided that you write a letter to your father, send it to your home in munchkin land and ask in the letter for it to be placed on your father's grave. Chantal said that once you put this stamp, it will immediately go to the location of where you want it to go." Nessa explained, making Boq brighten up a bit.
"Remind me to thank all of you guys later." Boq said, making Nessa chuckle.
"Do you want some privacy? I can go if you want." Nessa offered, but Boq shook his head and said, "No, stay please."
Nessa was actually shocked at that. She didn't think that Boq would be that umm...possessive is too harsh, longing's the word. Longing for her.
"Of course, Boq."
Sooner enough, Nessa and Boq managed to finish writing his letter.
My dear father,
I hope you're happy wherever you are now. I'd just like to thank you for the times that you stood up for me despite my quirks. Father, thank you for teaching me so many useful lessons in life. I promise to apply this in my daily life. I hope I make you proud, father, that's actually one of my main goals in life. And to mother, I hope you're happy and safe. Please place this on father's grave, in honor of him. I love the both of you.
Sincerely,
Boq
"Ready?" Nessa asked. Boq nodded and they sealed it with a stamp. And then they watched together as the envelope blew to where it needed to be.
"I'm glad it went well." Madison said, making the others agree.
"Well step one's done. For step two, Fifi, you ready?" Glinda asked, making the Vinkun prince nod.
"Okay, we'll do that in about five minutes, and for step three, Julie?"
Julie nodded and replied, "We'll prepare the food in about two hours."
"Okay then!"
"Fiyero, what are you doing here?" Boq asked as Fiyero entered his room.
"I wanted to talk to you about something."
Boq raised an eyebrow in curiosity, which signaled for Fiyero to go on. "It's just that. I've come to notice that your life is missing one special aspect."
Boq's eyes grew a bit wide but he said nothing.
"Oh you know what I mean Boq." Fiyero said, feigning a scolding manner,
Once he really understood what Fiyero had meant, he started to blush deeply.
"I can see that you're starting to fall for Nessa, Boq, It's quite obvious, well to me. I mean, if you were still head over heels over Glinda, then, not to offend but you would be more. Well...lovesick, Don't you think?"
Boq's blush deepened but he then nodded. What Fiyero was saying was right.
"My friend, the time has come for you to ask Miss Nessarose out tonight, don't you think?"
If it was even possible, Boq's blush turned even deeper but he eventually nodded.
"B-but how?"
Fiyero smiled before saying, "I'd be glad to enlighten you."
"Come on." Nat all but dragged Boq to the dining room.
"Nat why in Oz are you in such a hurry?" Boq asked, trying to catch his breath.
But his question was left unanswered because he basically dropped his jaw at the sight before him.
It was all of his dear friends gathered around the table, smiling at him. All of his favorite food and drinks were there, and he couldn't help but smile at the accuracy of his favorite food.
"Wow, you guys are accurate," He said, making the rest of them laugh.
"So before we start eating, I have two announcements to make." Boq said, making all of them nod curiously and Fiyero smile, knowing what one of the announcements would be.
"First, I thank all of you for helping me today, I really appreciate it. So, thank you so much."
"And second.." He said standing up and moving to Nessa, who was two seats away from him.
"Miss Nessarose Thropp, I'd like to tell you that though I'm just a mere munchkin, munchkins have feelings too, and I'd like to express my loving feelings for you. Would you do the honors in being my girlfriend?"
Nessa just sat there, her jaw dropped. Glinda squealed again, but Elphaba didn't protest because she was giving a thumbs up to Nessa in approval, Fiyero's grin just got wider, while the teenagers either cheered or 'awwed' at the sight.
"Yes!" She said, and everybody cheered.
A/N: I hope I made some Bessa shippers happy:) Please review and tell me what you think! And I'd like to acknowledge Vanessa, who I didn't really put any dialogue in, I'm sorry (the same goes for the others who aren't mentioned. My apologies, I'm doing my best to fit everyone in.) Okay, back to Vanessa (ThatFunnyGirlDefyingGravity), that I thank you for making me laugh and shudder at the same time at our very fulfilling PM conversation. And please tell me your reaction on my idea in the first authors note. That's all for now, bye!
