It was Chloey's second to last day in Frottica and she had to admit that she had so much fun this week. She loved the environment at Galinda's house. Her biological dad and her stepmom were the most amazing people. Their grandmother was also so nice, so welcoming and so funny. Galinda, Elphaba and Tristina had become so close to her and she loved them so much. The girls did virtually everything together that week and Darol wanted the chance to have a little one-on-one time with Chloey before she left. He took her out to dinner that evening and to see a few interesting sights in Frottica. It was a really fun daddy-daughter date and they got to know each other a lot better. Everyone went to the train station the next afternoon to see her off. Darol and Laura reassured her that their doors were always open, she's family, their house will always be a home to her and she's welcome back anytime.
"Bye twinnie. I'm gonna miss you so much! Tell your family that Elphie and I said hi." Galinda said, giving her sister one last big hug.
"I will. I love you guys." Chloey said returning the hug then waving to everyone before she boarded the train and headed off.
That evening was when they brought up the Emerald City trip with Laura and Darol. Of course they thought it was a great idea. They planned to leave Thursday because Triss had therapy Friday morning and an interview at her school that same afternoon. Darol went ahead and ordered three train tickets for them and the plans were all set in stone.

Laura was off work the next day and she was headed out to the gym that morning. Galinda and Elphie were up and she offered them to join to her so they went along. Laura had a membership at an all women's gym in the area. Galinda used to go with her a lot but hadn't been recently. Every so often the blonde would go downstairs to the room in their basement with the wood floor and dance mirror to practice a little. Jemma told her that she should try to stretch and work on her technique several times a week so she wouldn't be too out of it when the school year started.
Galinda's favorite part about going to the gym was getting to dress in some of her cute workout clothes. She wore her neon pink leggings with a matching zip-up sports bra and had her hair in a ponytail. Elphie wore some drawstring sweatpants and plain white shirt. She didn't own any fancy sports bras and also wasn't comfortable wearing one, even if there would only be women there.
It wasn't a busy day at the gym which was good. There was a weight room with all sorts of fancy equipment. There was a separate area with treadmills, elliptical machines and exercise bikes. Then there was an open area with personal mats and equipment for stretching. There were also separate rooms for the aerobic classes, yoga, zumba and other scheduled programs that they had throughout the week. Laura suggested that they get individual mats and stretch to warm up. Galinda was excited because she had been working on her flexibility recently and she finally got her split back.
"That's very impressive, baby doll." Laura said, as she did some of her basic stretches and Elphie more or less followed her lead. Galinda would did a backbend kickovers to stretch her back. She attempted to teach Elphie the other day at home. The most the green girl could do was a bridge, starting on the floor. Bending backwards and kicking over was easier said than done, but Galinda made it look quite easy as she did with a lot of her tricks. After warming up, they burned some calories on treadmill and other equipment and did some light weight lifting. Elphie typically didn't sweat very easily, but in rare situations where she did, her technique was to put a little oil on her face so there would be barrier between her skin and her sweat.
"That was an excellent workout girls, thanks so much for accompanying me." Laura said as they were heading back out to car once they were all done.
"Anytime Mommy." Galinda smiled.
"Yeah this was fun." Elphie said.
"Let's go home and freshen up then if your sleepy head cousin is awake we can all go out for some lunch."
"Yay! That sounds awesome." Galinda bubbled.

"That was a really good workout." Galinda said, entering her bedroom with Elphie right behind her.
"It was, I honestly haven't been to a gym in a while." Elphie said.
"We should start going to the one at Shiz."
"I remember we went once and it never became a regular thing." Elphie chuckled.
"Oh yeah." Galinda giggled then her tummy growled rather loudly and they both laughed. "I'm so hungry. I'm ready for lunch."
"Same."
"I don't even feel like showering. Should we?" the blonde asked.
"Lift up." Elphie and Galinda lifted her arm so Elphie could smell her. It was something they playfully did every so often.
"Great Oz!" Elphie said dramatically.
"Elphie!" Galinda said, quickly putting her arm down. She couldn't help but giggle a little because she knew Elphie was teasing her.
"I'm kidding my sweet, you know I've grown quite fond of the smell your sweat" Elphie winked and Galinda giggled. "But since we're going out for lunch, we should probably wash up."
"True." Galinda agreed. "Will you bring your stuff in here and wash up with me?"
"How about I wash up in my bathroom then I'll meet you back in here. You know how distracted we get…" Elphie said.
"Fair enough." Galinda said then pulled her girlfriend into a kiss. When they pulled back, she made sure Elphie was watching as she unzipped her bra. Her breasts popped right out, she shimmy her chest to jiggle them then gave them a squeeze and pinched her nipples. Elphie blushed deeply and failed at trying to look away. "See you in a bit."

"Laura?" Elphie said, nervously knocking on the entrance to the woman's parlor, later that evening. She had been wanting to plan a date for Galinda before they left later in the week. Their little date at home was a lot of fun but she wanted to go out somewhere this time. The problem was that she wasn't super familiar with Forttica had no idea where to go so she figured that Laura might be helpful in that aspect. Galinda and Triss were downstairs watching a show and the green girl was able to slip away for a few moments. Laura was currently reclined on the chair in her parlor, working on one of her puzzle books. She looked up, surprised to see Elphaba in the doorway.
"Elphaba? Is everything alright?"
"Everything is fine, I was just wondering if I could talk to you."
"Of course dear, come on in and have a seat." she said with a warm smile and Elphie made her way inside and sat on the sofa across from her. "What's on your mind?"
"Well I was just… I mean, I wanted to know if…well, could you maybe um…" Elphie faltered. She hadn't really rehearsed what she was going to say.
"Take a deep breath darling." Laura said patiently. Elphie breathed in.
"I want to take Galinda on a date."she said timidly.
"That sounds wonderful." Laura smiled.
"Yeah it's a little tradition of ours. We alternate between getting each other gifts and taking each other on dates each month. It's my turn to plan the date and I want to do something special before we leave for the Emerald City but I'm just not sure what my options are." she explained.
"Well there are plenty of options for the two of you here in Frottica. There are shops, movies, restaurants you know name it. What type of date is it that your trying to plan?"
"I don't really know. Usually we go to a restaurant for dinner which is always fun but I think I want to do something a little less predictable." Elphie said and Laura thought for a moment.
"What about a picnic?" she suggested. "There are some beautiful parks in the area. It could be a lovely afternoon date."
"I never really considered a picnic but that sounds like a good idea." Elphie said.
"The Wildflower Meadow would be a great place to go. It's a little ways away but I don't believe Galinda has been there in a while. Darol actually took me there not too long ago. The scenery is phenomenal and the river is so peaceful. It's a great place to get away for the day." Laura said.
"Sounds beautiful." Elphie said. "I think I'll take Galinda there tomorrow afternoon."
"Great. I can have Cook a prepare a picnic lunch for the two. Anything specific you want on the menu or should I have her surprise you?" Laura said as she pulled out her phone to send a text to Cook who was already in for the night.
"Have her surprise us. She's good at that." Elphie said after thinking for a moment.
"Sounds like a plan." Laura said as she hit send.
"Thank you so much Laura. You're a big help. I think Galinda will really enjoy it."
"No problem at all dear. I'm positive she will enjoy it. You two will have fun." the woman smiled. "By the way, how is that song of yours coming along?"
"Oh it's actually going well. I recently finished it and my friend is going to start working on the music soon."
"Very nice. Not many people have songs written specifically for them. Galinda is lucky to have a girlfriend like you. You're full of fun surprises." Laura chuckled.
"I try." Elphie blushed. Their conversation carried on and went in different directions. Elphie initially didn't intend to stay long but they ended up talking for a good half an hour. Laura was just so kind and easy to talk to and they even shared a few laughs.
"Laura, I just want to say thanks for being so… accepting. You accepted me as Galinda's friend right away and accepted me as her girlfriend instantly as well. You've been so loving and welcoming and basically let me live at your house. I really truly appreciate everything." Elphie said sincerely.
"Oh Elphaba you're so very welcome. You and Galinda just connect so well and you fit in so well in our household. You're such a special young lady and it has really been an honor getting to know you. I know things aren't very ideal for you back in Munchkinland so we want you to feel comfortable and loved here. We want you to feel at home." Laura said.
"I do, very much."
"I love you and care about you very much darling, you're definitely apart of the family."
"That really means a lot to me." Elphie said as she blinked back the tears that almost began to fall. Laura noticed and quickly handed her a tissue.
"Are you alright?" Laura asked. Elphie nodded but had to wipe her eyes again.
"It's just...as you know, my mom died when I was 8 and... sometimes it's just...hard." Elphie said softly. She had never properly dealt with the death of her own mother, it was just brushed under the rug. She was starting to notice that every moment she had with Laura was filling a void that she didn't even know was missing. Laura came and sat behind her on the sofa.
"Oh darling, I'm so sorry I know its hard." She said comfortingly. "Would you like to talk about it?"
"Not really." Elphie sighed and Laura nodded understandingly. "But anyway, I am very grateful to be apart of your family."
"A we're very grateful for you." Laura said, giving her loving hug. They talked a little more and the conversation took a more lighthearted turn.
"There you are Elphie!" Galinda said popping into the parlor with Triss behind her. "We've been looking all over."
"I'm sorry Lindie, I was talking with your mom and I guess we lost track of time." Elphie explained. Galinda sat down on the other side of her on the sofa while Triss sat down on the other chair.
"Hi Auntie Laura." Triss said.
"Oh yeah hi Mommy!"
"Hi girls." Laura chuckled.
"What are you talking about?" Galinda asked.
"Somehow we ended up on the topic of food. I might end up going on a vegetarian diet sometime soon." Laura said.
"Are you trying to convert my Mama?" Galinda asked her girlfriend.
"I'm not trying to convert anybody. I was just providing information and she can do what she wants with it." Elphie chuckled. The four of them stayed in the parlor chit chatting and laughing until it was really late and Laura had to call it a night.

"We're having a picnic! This is so exciting!" Galinda bubbled. Cook prepared their meal for them and had it nicely packed up the picnic basket. Elphie had an additional bag that had the picnic blanket and other items in it. "What are we eating?"
"I don't know. Cook said she surprised us." Elphie said.
"Can I peak?" the blonde asked, trying to open the basket.
"No." Elphie chuckled shooing her away.
"Well can you at least tell me where we're going?"
"That's a surprise too." Elphie said as she gathered everything and they headed out to the garage.
"So let me get this straight. I'm driving us there but you're not gonna tell me where we're going?" Galinda said.
"Correct."
"Elphie!"
"My sweet, I have the GPS on my phone. I'm going to provide you with directions but you won't be aware of the location until we get there." Elphie said. "I wish I could drive us but unfortunately you're the only with a license."
"I can teach you." the blonde suggested.
"I'll take a rain check. Let's get going." Elphie chuckled, giving Galinda's bottom a tap
"Fine, fine." Galinda giggled.

"The Wildflower Meadow! Oh my Oz!" Galinda exclaimed once they drove through the gate.
"Surprise." Elphie chuckled.
"I haven't been here in forever. How did you know about this place?"
"Your mom suggested it. That's what we were talking about in the parlor last night."
"This is the perfect place for our picnic date! It's so beautiful here." Galinda said. She parked the car in the gravel parking lot. There were only three other cars there. It was never a really crowded place, especially on weekdays. They got the basket, blanket and other things out of the car then Galinda locked the door. They had to a little bit of walking to find the perfect picnic spot. They found a nice sunny area among the pretty flowers with a lovely view of the river. They spread out the blanket and made themselves comfortable.
"Now lets see what Cook packed us. I'm starving." Galinda said. Elphie opened the basket.
"Looks like pasta salad." She said as she pulled out two tupperware bowls. The one with chicken was labeled for Galinda and the one with tofu was labeled for Elphie.
"Yummy! What else?"
"Fruit kabobs."
"Ooooh!"
"Chips." Elphie said pulling out the full bag of chip along with another container. "With guacamole."
"Cook's guac is the best!"
"And we have trail mix." she said, pulling out two ziplock bags of nuts and dried fruit.
"That'll be good for when we go exploring." Galinda said. "What's to drink?"
"Fruit punch." Elphie said pulling out the pitcher of punch along with the plastic cups. There was also an additional bottle of water for Galinda and a bottle of coconut milk for Elphie. That was a drink they found worked well for her and helped her stay hydrated during the summer.
"Yay! What are we waiting for let's dig in!" Galinda bubbled. Elphie passed her a fork and poured the drinks. They talked and laughed with each other while they ate and playfully fed each other fruit. Once they were full, a little bit of cuddling and kissing took place. Then Elphie pulled out some card games she had brought for them to play. After a few rounds they decided to go for a walk. They grabbed their trail mix and water bottles and explored down some of the different paths that were available for walking. During their walk they also discovered where the restroom facilities were, which was convenient. After taking several different trails, they ended up sitting on a little stone bench right by the river and had a deep conversation. After a while, Galinda's tummy rumbled so they headed back to their picnic spot to finish up the chips and guac. They played a few more games and just relaxed while enjoying each others company.
"Are you excited to go to the Emerald City?" the blonde asked as she was laying across Elphie's lap.
"I am. I've only ever been there while traveling between Munchkinland and Shiz. I never really got to experience it though." Elphie said.
"I'm excited too. I've only been a few times to visit family. I've never been to ECU or Lani and Triss's apartment or anything. And there's still so much of the city that I haven't seen. It'll be fun."
"I'm sure it will." Elphie smiled.
"This was really fun by the way. This date." Galinda said.
"I'm glad you enjoyed it Lindie." Elphie leaned down to kiss her.
"I love this. I wanna stay here all day."
"Me too my sweet. Although the family will probably be expecting us home for dinner."
"I'm sure they'll save us a plate. Can we stay until Sunset at least? It'll be so pretty."
"Of course my precious." Elphie said, running her fingers through her girlfriend's curly hair. They continued talking and enjoying each others company. They liked to talk optimistically about their future and plan dreams to together.
"Ouch!" Elphie exclaimed, startling her girlfriend. Galinda sat up, concerned. Elphie hissed again when she felt another drop of water on her skin
"What the-" she said as they both looked up at the sky. They had been so distracted that they did not notice the dark clouds that had formed until now.
"Oh no." Galinda panicked as a few more drops began to fall. Elphie was trying to protect herself but she was wearing shorts sleeves and they had no umbrella.
"Its picking up. We have to go. " Elphie said flinching at the pain, trying to pack up the stuff. Galinda scrambled through her bag for the car keys.
"Elphie don't worry about the stuff, go to the car!" Galinda said giving her the key. She tossed all of their stuff off of the blanket.
"Here cover yourself and hurry!" She put the blanket over Elphie as rain started coming down more.
"But wait-"
"Go!" the blonde demanded. Elphie compiled and ran all the way to the car, covering herself as best she could with the blanket. Their car was the only one left in the parking lot. The other visitors must have gone home already. By time she made it in the rain was pouring down. Elphie took a moment to examine the damage. Her clothes were kind of damp but not wet enough to seep through. She also had a few slight burns on her arms and face. She used her spare bottle of oil to treat them immediately so they would heal quicker. Then she anxiously waited for her girlfriend while feeling completely useless. It was ten stressful minutes later when a soaked Galinda arrived at the car.
"Oz it is really pouring out there!" she said as she got into the driver's seat, and the bag's in the back then noticed the burns on Elphie's face. "Oh no, sweetheart are you alright?"
"I'll be alright Lindie, I already oiled them."
"I had no idea it was going to rain like this today. I was so scared for you." Galinda said, tearing up. She imagined that this amount of water would basically melt Elphaba.
"Its okay my sweet, I'm okay and I'm so glad your okay." Elphie said.
"Why wouldn't I be okay?"
"I was worried. What if you had fallen and got hurt or got lost finding the car? I wouldn't be able to come help you. I wouldn't be able to be there for you if you needed me."
"Elphie, don't worry about the what ifs. I can't even bare to think about the what ifs. But what is important is that we're both here and we're both okay. I'll always have you, you'll always have me and we'll always have this." Galinda said then kissed her lovingly. They didn't make much contact because Galinda was rather wet. The blonde used the hair tie around Elphie's wrist to tie her wet curls back and used their left over napkins to dry her face and arms off.
"I'm sorry our date had to end this way." Elphie said after they kissed again.
"I had fun anyway. We should definitely come back here… and check the weather forecast first." Galinda said and Elphie agreed. "I think we should wait for it to lighten up some before driving home. So in the meantime if you wanna kiss me some more don't mind" she giggled and Elphie smiled and compiled as they kissed slowly and deep. They figured it would be awhile before they hit the road so they moved to the backseat to get comfortable and have more room. They tried to work around the fact that Galindas clothes were wet but it wasn't easy.
"I could always just take them off."
"Lindie! We're in public."
"We're in the car and it's just us. There's literally no one else around."
"You have a point." Elphie said after looking around again. She watched Galinda remove her tank top and slide out of her shorts. Then they kissed again and again. Galinda maneuvered into a straddle position on Elphie's lap. The green girls hands strokes her backside as their tongues explored deeply in each others mouths. They were both becoming rather worked up and knew it. Galinda reached behind Elphie's back and unhooked her bra then slide it off her arms and out from underneath her shirt. Her hands found their way beneath the shirt and onto Elphie's hardened nipples. The green girl squirmed and moaned as she pinched and twisted them. She eventually pulled her shirt up, exposing her perky green breasts and not hesitating to put her mouth on them.
"Oh Lindie…" Elphie said breathlessly. She loved the feeling of Galinda's soft wet lips closing around her nipples and sucking on them. It sent sparks of pleasure through her. The blonde's teeth traced around the hard green nipples which elicited a whimper from Elphie. The blonde kissed her way back up to Elphie's neck.
"Are we really doing this?" Elphie said between sighs.
"Do you want to stop?" Galinda asked with a seductive smile.
"I don't." Elphie said desperately kissing her again and reuniting their tongues. She sucked on Galinda's neck a little longer and harder than she had ever done before which resulted in some deep moans from the blonde that sent shivers down Elphie's spine.
Galinda gasped when Elphie's hand ended up between her legs. She could feel Galinda's warmth and wetness through her underwear, knowing that she was quite wet herself. She slowly began to pull down Galinda's underwear and they chuckled a little at how hard it was to get them off in their current position. Elphie's hand brushed against Galinda's bare wet center and Galinda moaned with anticipation. She straddled above Elphie with her weight on her knees. The green girl raised her hips slightly and the blonde pulled her pants and underwear down. Elphie gasped and moaned when Galinda's fingers started caressing her below. She brought her own hand back between Galinda's legs and they both teased each others wet centers. The mutual moans and breathy sighs turned them on all the more. They communicated with their eyes and inserted their fingers at the same time matching each other's pace. Galinda was moaning loudly and Elphie was gasping and panting. Galinda raised and lowered her hips against Elphie's hand while simultaneously trying to keep a steady rhythm inside of Elphie. They were both so close to the edge. Galinda came first with Elphie close behind. They all but collapsed against each other afterwards still trembling and sighing from their climaxes. They made out some more as they calmed and Galinda's phone vibrated, startling them slightly.
"Who texted?" Elphie asked.
"Mommy. She said the rain is going to lighten up but it's supposed to storm hard later and we should get home as soon as possible." after reading and responding to the message.
"It has calmed down a bit. I guess we should take advantage of that." Elphie said looking out of the window.
"I suppose." Galinda said, but ended up kissing Elphie deeply again.
"Lindie." Elphie breathed after a few minutes. "Believe me, I really don't want to stop this. But we should go while we can because I don't want you driving home the storm." she said and Galinda agreed after a few more passionate kisses. They began to assemble their clothing then climbed back into the front seats.
"Did that really just happen?" Elphie said.
"I guess we can cross car sex off of our bucket list." Galinda giggled.
"I wasn't aware that we had a bucket list." Elphie chuckled.
"Well we should make a bucket list and put car sex on it then cross it off." Galinda laughed. Elphie was about to laugh but her eyes widened when she noticed a purple bruise on Galinda's neck where she had been sucking.
"Did I do that?"
"What?" the blonde asked and Elphie pointed to her neck.
"Oh wow Elphie you really got me good there." Galinda said as she looked in the mirror examining the hickey.
"I am so sorry my sweet." Elphie said feeling guilty.
"Do not apologize sweetheart, you sucking on my neck like that felt amazifying."
"But Lindie what are your parents gonna say?"
"They're not gonna say anything because they're not gonna know. It'll heal in a couple days and I have plenty of concealer to cover it. Don't worry."
"If you say so." Elphie said as Galinda started the car and they were on their way. "By the way you did something different to me that I found rather pleasing as well."
"What was that?" Galinda asked intrigued.
"The way you traced your teeth around my nipples before closing your mouth around them." Elphie with a slight blush.
"Ah, I'll keep that in mind." Galinda winked.

"Hello girls. I'm glad you made it home safely. We saved you some dinner." Laura said as they entered the house. Galinda had planned to just go straight up stairs to cover her hickey and kind of annoyed that her mother just happened to be right by the door as soon as they got in. But she was thankful that the light wasn't on in the foyer.
"Hi Laura." Elphie said.
"We'll back down soon to eat." Galinda said.
"Where are you off to in such a hurry?" Laura asked.
"Umm we got caught in the rain and Elphie has a couple burns that need to be treated."
"Oh goodness, darling are you okay?"
"I'm fine. They're not bad. I have special oils to help."
"Alright well you two go get settled. I'll take this picnic basket to Cook so she can get the dishes washed."
"Thanks momsie." Galinda then hurried up the stairs with Elphie behind her.

Elphie went into her room to change her clothes and treat her burns again. Galinda went into her own room to do what she had to do.
"Hey Gally." Triss popped in once she heard they were home. "You and Elphaba were gone all day I missed you guys."
"Aw I missed you too big sissy Trissy. What have you been up today?"
"Working. I made almost 40 real estate phone calls for your mom today. Let me tell you, people can be so fucking rude." Triss said then ranted for a bit. "But anyway, how was your day?"
"My day was awesome. Elphie and I had a picnic date at the Wildflower Meadow. Its was fun."
"Nice. That hickey on your neck tells me that it was a lot of fun." Triss said and Galinda blushed.
"Is it bad?"
"I've seen worse. Don't worry little cousin we've all been there." She chuckled. "You're just like me. You bruise like a peach. I have some cream that'll have that thing gone by tomorrow. Want me to hook you up?"
"Yes please." Galinda said as she followed her cousin into her room to the bathroom. Triss got the cream out of one of er toiletry bags and gently applied it to Galinda's neck.
"I like that. It has a cooling sensation." Galinda said.
"It works like magic."
"Where'd you get it?"
"My friend Bella gave it to me. I'm not sure where she got it but it definitely came in handy last year when I had five huge hickeys right before coming home for Lurlinemas break."
"Oh my Oz, five?"
"Yeah it was a crazy one night stand. He was determined to make sure I had something to remember him by but now I don't even know if I remember his name." Triss chuckled.
"Wow." Galinda laughed. "But wait...you just met him that night and you slept with him?"
"Alright don't judge me it was one of my dumbest mistakes."
"I'm not judging at all. I just had no idea about this."
"We didn't use protection either. I was so stressed I that bought a pregnancy test and even went to get tested for STDs. Thankfully I'm clean and not pregnant. The moral of this story is don't have sex with people you don't know."
"Got it. I won't do that." Galinda chuckled. "But have you ever had sex in a car?"
"Yes Gally, I lost my virginity in a car. I thought I told you that story." Triss said.
"Oh yeah I remember."
"Have you?" Triss asked and Galinda nodded. "Like today? Is that why it took you guys so long to get home?"
"We were the only ones in the parking lot and it was too rainy to drive. We had to kill the time somehow." Galinda giggled and blushed.
"You little freak." Triss said playfully.
"Well you're a freak too." Galinda laughed.
"I guess it runs in the family" Triss laughed.
"Also please don't mention to Elphie that I've told you about our sex life. I know she doesn't mind me talking to you about anything but she's very easily embarrassed so it's probably best she doesn't know."
"As long as you don't ever mention to Lani that I basically hooked up with a stranger. She never knew about that and I'd definitely be in for a stern lecture about safe sex and common sense." Triss rolled her eyes and chuckled.
"I won't." Galinda chuckled. "I should go grab Elphie so we can have dinner. Mommy said there's leftovers."
"Yep. Cook made stuffed pasta shells. They were so good I think I want seconds." Triss said. They stopped back by Galinda's room so she could properly cover her hickey and they found Elphie in there waiting. Then all three of them headed downstairs to eat.

That night the storm was in full force. The thunder was so loud and forceful that it woke Triss up from her slumber. She thought about Galinda. The blonde had been afraid of storms since they were little. They used to huddle together in bed at Nana's house until the storm passed. She didn't know for sure if Galinda had grown out of that or not but she figured if her cousin needed her comfort tonight then she wouldn't hesitate to come to her. But it didn't seem like that was necessary so she went back to sleep. Laura on the other hand was also not worried. She knew from past experience that Elphaba had a way of helping Galinda get through stormy nights.
Meanwhile both of the girls were cuddled up in Galinda's bed and Elphie was singing their song.
"When you are scared or frightened, just know that I am here. I'll be right beside you to dry away your tears. It's safe to say that this storm won't last forever. You are my love and I will love you for good."
"I love you Elphie." Galinda said, snuggling a little closer when the thunder clapped again.
"I love you too my precious girl. You haven't even cried tonight. You're so brave." Elphie kissed her.
"It's because I'm with you. You make me feel so safe and protected." the blonde said and Elphie smiled.
"I'm glad you feel safe my sweet. You'll always be safe with me." Elphie said then started singing again.
"You gave me wings and taught me to fly when I was out there on my own. You gave me wings and brought me to life and now I need to know if you wanna fly cause I wanna fly…"
