A/N: Okay, this chapter is on the shorter side. I admit, this is horribly written, but I had severe writers block towards the end of this chapter. Sorry it took so long to updat. Well, read and review! Toodles!

Disclaimer: It would be wonderful if I was popular and owned Wicked. But I'm not that girl and I might as well just keep dancing through life.

Luckily for Fiyero and Elphaba, almost all of the students were out of the room when he felt the urge to kiss her. The one student that was still there was the one that they had to worry the most about because he would surely tell his beloved Galinda of what he had recently witnessed. That snitch happened to be the very boy to tell Fiyero to follow his heart in the first place.

Boq could not believe his own eyes. He knew he had to tell Galinda at once because her boyfriend that she had trusted and had kissed the outcast who Galinda had befriended. He knew that when he told Galinda, she would be completely heartbroken. She would want a shoulder o cry on, and he would be there to comfort her. Boq thought that this devastating news could help him replace Fiyero and be with Galinda forever. We deserve each other, he thought, and when she sees how I am there for her in her time of need while Fiyero is off dong Oz knows what with Elphaba, she would not be able to resist me.

Boq decided to approach the two who were still talking in the middle of the room. They were holding each others hands and were oblivious to his presence. He cleared is throat in order to draw attention to himself. Elphaba jumped, letting out a faint scream, and then she turned to face Boq.

"Boq, hi," Elphaba said, turning a darker shade of green from embarrassment, "have you been here the whole time?" Fiyero's eyes enlarged realizing that he could be in a serious dilemma if Boq had indeed been standing there all along. His fear was confirmed by Boq's high pitched voice.

"Why, yes Miss Elphaba, I have been her the whole time when you were kissing Miss Galinda's boyfriend." Boq said it almost as if it were a joke, as if he knew that he had the power in the situation because he could let the information that he knew leak and cause hell to rise between the collegiate friends.

"Boq, listen. You can't tell Galinda what you just saw," Fiyero pleaded.

"And why not? She would be impressed with my loyalty to her, a quality that you do not seem to have." Boq folded his arms over his chest, trying to seem tough. Fiyero stepped in front of him in an intimidating manner. He did not like when people gave him an attitude. He seized Boq by the shirt with one hand and held up his fist. Elphaba grabbed his arm, stopping him from punching Boq in the face. Fiyero unclenched Boq's shirt.

"Fiyero, what in Oz are you doing?"

"Fae, I am only doing this because I do not want him to tell Galinda." This was Elphaba's turn to get irritated. She placed her hands on her hips and stepped between Fiyero and Boq.

"Why don't you want to tell Galinda? You understand that she has to find out sooner or later. Why not now?"

"I don't want Boq to tell her now because it will cause unnecessary drama between her and me and drama between you and her also. Plus, he is only going to tell her so he can get in her skirt!" Boq's face turned the color of a chili pepper.

"I am not trying to do anything dishonorable with Miss Galinda! I simply love her."

"Okay, keep saying that. But Boq, I am the one that needs to tell Galinda what is going on with me and Elphaba, not you. Understand?"

"Yes. Now, if you excuse me, I have somewhere I have to be." Boq left in a hurry, leaving Elphaba and Fiyero all alone in the classroom.

After a moment of silence, Elphaba spoke.

"Do you think that Boq would tell her?"

"I doubt it. I think he is afraid that I will kick his ass if he lets it slip." They both laughed.

Fiyero took his arms and wrapped it around Elphaba's tiny waist. He placed a kiss on her temple.

"What was that for?" She inquired.

"It was for simply being you." Elphaba giggled, but it was not reassuring of her happiness.

The light-heartedness of the moment was broken when Fiyero and Elphaba's eyes met. He looked into Elphaba's dark eyes recognized that were filled with what he thought was worry. Elphaba never seemed to worry about anything, whether it was big or small. Truth be told, she was afraid. She was afraid of losing the only real friend she had, the only person who was truly there for, the only person who listened. Well, Fiyero was there for her now also, but it was not the same of having a girl that she could depend on because she never really had one due to her mother's death and Nessa finding her strange.

"I really think that I should be going," Elphaba said, flatly.

"Do you want to do something?"

"Yero, we just got caught by Boq. If we are continually spotted together, it would make people suspicious. Oz forbid that any word of it gets around to Galinda, she will slowly chop off our heads and place them on a silver platter. You can't just cheat on people."

"Thank you Elphaba for filling my mind with lovely pictures of my severed head."

"That was not the point!"

"Fine, Elphaba, what was the point of it all? Are you saying that this thing between us is completely wrong?"

"I was not saying it was wrong, I was saying it was wrong for you to cheat."

Elphaba straightened herself up. She smoothed out her dress with her palms, making sure that she looked somewhat decent and kept her eyes fixated on the floor of the classroom. She tried her hardest to not say anything because she always liked to have the last word in an argument, if she could call what was going on between her and Fiyero as an argument. Fiyero, who was just as stubborn as Elphaba, wanted to add something to the conversation.

"So then, you do not think this thing between us is wrong?" Fiyero asked, in reassurance.

"Are we a thing?"

"Darling, we're everything," Fiyero said.

And with that, Elphaba melted on the inside, knowing for once that she could experience true love, the thing she never thought that she would have, however long her life turned out to be.
