I don't own Wicked..."Hmm... thinks about what it would be like to own wicked..." oh yah...the story... well I almost rewrote this...i still may...well read and tell me what yah think..

Glinda woke up to a new day and to an almost new life. The night before she felt she had connected with someone in a way she had never connected to anyone else. The scariest part is that it was with a girl she had hated. 'Well' she thought to herself 'you sure are growing up'.

She looked over expecting to see an empty made up bed. Elphaba had always usually gone to the library in the morning soon after having a night with one of her nightmares. Instead she saw Elphaba lying there sprawled out across the bed with a…to Glinda's disbelief, a smile on Elphaba's face. It wasn't huge but it was there.

The girl she saw lying under the covers was not the Elphaba she knew. This girl didn't look cold or distant. Well she still looked green, there was no changing that, but this girl looked… hmmm…. The girl looked innocent. Usually Elphaba looked older than she really was, like someone had taken away her childhood much, much long ago. But seeing her lying there with a smile replacing the usual scowl, she wondered whether Elphaba and her were really that different.

She saw Elphaba's arm hanging out over the covers and her gaze followed it down to Elphaba's emerald green hand that lay idle at her side. Galinda had a sudden urge to touch the hand and caress it the way she had last night. She remembered how soft and smooth that hand had felt, it caused tingles on her fingers. She sat there staring at the hand until she saw it start to move.

She looked up to dark brown eyes staring into her green ones. She suddenly felt very hot and embarrassed. She looked down and walked into the bathroom like she was going to get dressed, but when she realized she had not brought clothes with her, she settled on pretending to use the bathroom. She didn't like where that the heat had settled between her legs and tried to ignore it with all of her will power.

Just then she heard Elphaba's morning, slightly slurred voice from outside the door. She couldn't hear a damn thing the girl was saying she peeked her head out of the bathroom door. "What is it your saying" Galinda almost snapped at her.

"I just wanted to know why when I woke up you were staring at me?" Elphaba asked with a bemused look on her face. She still looked slightly vulnerable and had a flushed expression on her face.

Her hair cascaded down the front of her thin sheer black nightgown. Glinda couldn't help but notice this and be infatuated with her hair once again.

Glinda looked down at the floor. What could she say to this? Also the heat hadn't completely left her crotch and it made Galinda feel especially anxious. "Well I was still a little worried about you. You know you really make a fuss in your dream state. Then I noticed you were smiling and well I don't know, I was just wondering what you were thinking." As soon as she said the last part she wished she could take it back. Shit, when she rambled she became somewhat dim-witted. Why did she never know what to say around Elphaba?

Its like Elphaba brought out another side to Galinda. One that was insecure and unsure, but also nicer and more aware of feelings around her, more aware of her own feelings, even if she didn't understand them.

"Well like I said last night I'm fine, its just dreams from my wonderful childhood." She said with a sarcastic grin.

Galinda watched as a hardened expression passed over her face. And just like that she watched as Elphaba aged and shielded herself from the world. This was how she prepared for the day. Glinda wore makeup to hide herself while all Elphaba needed was that cold malicious grin.

Yes they were soon finding out they were one in the same person brought up in two very different worlds now thrown together in the same.

"Elphie if you need to talk… I'm here… ill always be here for you… you know if you have to talk." She once again was staring at the floor. This morning she was becoming quite acquainted with the floor she thought. She felt a smile slip onto her face.

She looked up and saw a smile in the corners of Elphie's mouth. "What is so funny!" she over exaggerated as she threw a pillow in the direction of her roomy. Elphie caught the pillow and quickly threw it back hitting Galinda right in the face causing her to squeal followed by a fit of giggles as she laid back down on the bed.

"I like it" Elphie said catching Galinda off guard.

"Like what?"

"Elphie"

"It suites you" said Galinda threw another fit of giggles as she walked over to Elphie with a pillow in her hand and a mischievous look in her eyes.

"Don't even think about it!" screamed Elphie trying to suppress the urge to giggle.

Just then wham the pillow came straight across her body almost knocking her down. Surprised by the sudden blow Elphie looked up to find roomy cracking up laughing. Ill show her thought Elphie.

She picked Galinda up with almost no trouble at all, threw her on her bed and started to tickle her. Galinda screamed in pain and giggles thriving on the bed kicking. Elphaba had to get on top of her to hold her down smiling down at her with now a mischievous look played across her smile.

Just ten Ama Clutch walked into the room to see what all the commotion was about. Elphie stopped tickling Glinda but was too shocked to get off her.

Galinda sat under her trying to catch her breath, which was not being helped with the fact that Elphie was straddling her.

Ama Clutch gave a puzzled expression for her answer. Telling them to cut the foolishness. "Get dressed, you have classes in an hour" was all she said as she retired back to her room.

Glinda could do nothing but look at Elphie who was still straddling her. Had she forgotten she was on top of her?

Elphie looked down and with a sudden nervous jolt of realization slid off of Galinda. Then gave her an uneasy smile trying to tell her it was ok.

Galinda wasn't buying it.

They got dressed in almost complete silence. Awkwardness whenever they would get near each other to grab something and they'd brush up against each other.

Galinda couldn't handle it any longer and finally found the courage to ask Elphie what's wrong.

"It's nothing. I'm just trying to hurry up before I miss my first class. Ozian history is one of my favorite subjects.' Elphie knew it wasn't the whole truth, but if it was the truth she was accepting right now than it was the truth that Galinda was going to have to accept too.

"Elphie, it's going to have to take some time. Yesterday we were enemies and today were almost…. Friends."

"Galinda we'll talk about this later because right now you have fifteen minutes before you have to be in class and your hair is a mess."

Galinda knew she wasn't going to let Elphie blow her off that easy, but right now she had a point and with her grades she really couldn't afford to blow off another class.

Besides now she really had a reason to stay.
