After speaking to Doctor Dillamond Galinda wrapped up in her winter clothing to begin her hunt for the books in the nearby stores. Having free periods was always handy for her as it meant shopping was only more inevitable.

She trudged through the snow and managed to fall a few times since wearing an extensive coat only made the possibility of tripping more likely. Having fallen she readjusted her ear muffs and rubbed her hands in her gloves. Only when she stopped the heat making did she hear a familiar voice calling her name. It wasn't a happy one either. That voice could only be Milla's...

Milla decided to walk over to the blonde since it was evident to her that she didn't want to talk. Despite Galinda's blatant ignorance towards her she didn't believe herself obliged to back off and turn the over way; she had other intentions.

Milla blurted.."oi! I'm talking to you Galinda, I wish to speak to you." Galinda simply rolled her eyes and ruffled the collar of her coat into her neck area further, preventing the sharp wind from catching her skin. In disdain she replied-

"Well I do not wish to speak to you! Have you thought of that implication or are you to dim to comprehend that I don't think you are worthy of my time." The blonde squeaked most of her answer out in annoyance, arms waving about as she said it.

"You are worthy of the air I breath," Milla shouted as she swiftly grabbed Galinda and pinned her gently to the building on the corner of the bustling high street. "Now I wish you to breath it."

"Now look Milla! You know damn well what will happen if you touch me again or even lay your eyes on any private matters that I do not feel you should be obligated to!" The blonde looked Milla dead straight into her irises which began an unpleasantly numb feeling to begin to form in her fingers. Her anger must have begun to spark her inner magic. The blonde panicked. Milla looked at Galinda in a sympathetic way as she let go of her and sighed.

"I don't wish to harm you Galinda. I know I was wrong in what I had done. I still can't believe I had done it but you see...that's how you make me feel, i just expressed it in the wrong way." Milla eyed her carefully.

"If that's the only explanation you can give in regards to that..ex...ex...expolitation!" The blonde became flustered in her speech and had begun to stutter, "then you must be exceedingly superficial and self serving to say the least. I am not yours to toy with." Milla rolled her eyes, this wasn't going as she had planned. She realised her comment had made matters worse but she wanted to make it clear that she actually did like her.

"I'm sorry Milla but you blew any chances...actually, to be quite frank, you didn't have any to start with either!" Milla snorted at that and let out a throaty laugh.

"We know it's not because I'm a woman."

"Just because I look at you does not mean I desire you or any woman."

"It's obvious that you desire women Galinda don't deny it, you're likeness for Elphaba is obvious to be something more than just a friendly relationship. I'm not stupid."

"Whether it is or not, it doesn't concern you."

"Ah so you're not denying it! You know full well you like her." Milla shook her head in both directions. Her eyes were narrowed and sharp, all she had to do was wait for the right words to come out of the blonde's mouth. Milla made herself look annoyed at the fact that Galinda desired the emerald woman and Galinda was buying it.

"No I don't like her, I love her with all my heart! you're just jealous that it isn't you! but you know what that doesn't even phase me your not even my type!"

Milla smirked, happy that she had gotten the confession from Galinda, now she could just tease her as she pleased..."Oh am I not? So green vegetables are more to your taste are they?"

"Don't you dare speak about her like that." Galinda said sharply, she had had enough of Milla's sulking and snarky remarks.

"That's very hypocritical of you Galinda."

"those times are behind me and Elphie now."

"Ooooh it has a pet name too? Why would you even name a cabbage. In all honesty why doesn't someone put it out of its misery and have it-" Galinda didn't give Milla time to finish that sentence. With a whistling slap to Milla's face she snarled and grabbed the munchkinlander by her jacket.

"I think you are forgetting who you're talking to! I am Galinda Upland! Who happens to love Elphaba Thropp, an emotion I could never show you, not with that FROZEN interior you possess. Are you sure that you are not the blonde one here becasue you are such a ditz that you even said those horrible things about Elphie in front of me!" Milla simply glared back at her with cold vapour heaving from her nostrils as she exhaled.

"Let go of me Galinda before I do something I regret!" She had no idea what she was going to do, she wouldn't dare hurt Glainda knowing that if she did Elphaba would have her head and also she didn't really want to hurt her. Not in that way anyway.

"FINE" as the blonde said it her magic forced Milla to be thrown backwards and plummet into the snow. Milla shot up from where she landed and drew her wand out, of which Galinda then withdrew with a wave of her hands under the force of magic. It leaped into the air whilst it's brittle splinters began to tear into a shattering of wood...it was gone. Galinda had never seen Milla look so vexed or startled; she found it quite pleasing.

"Galinda...all I wanted to do was sort things out and actually talk to you about what happened." The frottican had begun to sense a strange aroma in this whole situation. This just wasn't adding up.

Galinda sighed to hear that come from the girls monotone voice. First Milla wants to seduce her, then apologise, annoy her, then go back to forgiveness? The blonde scowled at her defiantly. It was all too peculiar and she did not like it one bit. Now was the time for her to decide to carry on and do her Lurlinemas shopping.

"You and I both know that wasn't your intention otherwise me hurling you into the air and snapping your wand wouldn't of happened. I don't want to speak to you, allow me to carry on before Elphie finds out about this. I'm already late as it is!"

"Fine, Galinda, if that's how you feel."

"Yes it is indeed!" The blonde glared at her, she couldn't listen to this anymore. Shaking her head vigorously she walked off in the direction of the bustling High street. Milla watched her walk, her eyes analysing the frottican's feminine form as she walked.

"What a stupid blonde you are sometimes." She whispered to herself, followed by an evil grin to conjure onto her features. She flipped the recording that she had in her hand several times before putting it into her purse. Now all she had to do was edit out some of her areas of speech and play it to Morrible. In this time and age, no one was going to take a liking to the intimate indulgence two people were to make amongst themselves, especially not those of the same gender. If she couldn't have her, why should Elphaba?

The charmed circle had come out of their other lectures and met back at the library before making their way to the Peach & Kidneys.

"Bloody hell Fiyero, you take anymore pictures of us all together I'm sure everyone's face will crack." Elphaba had eventually come to terms with Fiyero since their disagreement, which Fiyero was extremely grateful for. It was better to have a friendship rather than not, and become someone's foe. Elphaba was surprised at how receptive the Vinkan was being, not that she was complaining she found herself to feel accepted. she looked at him just as he was about to answer.

"Sorry but the charmed circle are just that photogenic and you Miss Elphaba...well I must say it captures your emerald complexion considerably." At that Elphaba rolled her eyes and beckoned him over.

"Get over here Fiyero before the camera finishes its timer, I won't be holding this position for much longer-" The raven tressed woman said. Fiyero ran into the view of the camera lens and jumped up on Crope and Tibbett, laying his body along their laps to fit in before the timer had finished. They both pushed him simultaneously so as the camera flashed he hit his head on Nessa's wheelchair before colliding with the floor. Nessa gasped as she saw Fiyero laying beside her wheelchair. The young Thropp sister wheeled backwards to allow him up from his spot which only resulted in her crushing his fingers slightly under the wheel.

"AAAHH!" Fiyero yelped, calling out in his native language as he shot up from the spot cradling his fingers.

"Oh Fiyero I'm sorry, from the unnamed god I pray for forgiveness, I really didn't mean to!"

Putting his finger between his lips to cool it he nodded to indicate that she shouldn't fluster.

"Nessa, honestly it's fine, I assure you. You're not the one who pushed me in the first place." His voice grew louder as he said it, his dark brown eyes drawn towards Crope and Tibbett.

Crope just poked fun of him as he explained that is was a foolish idea to jump into the photo in the first place.

As the two finished their ranting, the charmed circle all looked at the person who was now behind the camera cackling away to herself. Nessa scolded her which only made her cackle more. As the camera unfolded the new photo Fiyero ripped it from her and frowned at it. The camera showed a picture of Fiyero yelling on the floor and his fingers beneath Nessa's chair; whose face was horror struck in the frame. Before he could say anything she ripped it back from him.

"Don't you dare rip this one up Fiyero, this is a keeper."

"And that it shall be," Crope singed as he took it from her nimble fingers. "Don't ask me why but this is going with the other pictures."

"How come I don't get to have them, what about the ones of me and Galinda?"

"All in good time Miss Elphie dear," he crooned. Elphaba made a face and shook her head in dismissal. Her suspicions about these photos had begun to rise.

"For Lurline's sake, what on earth are you doing with these photos?"

"It doesn't concern you!"

"Well it does because I'm in bloody all of them!"

"You'll find out soon, please just don't spoil it."

"Pffffft, " was all she replied in response to that. Shenshen got up and grabbed her bags, signalling that she was off somewhere.

"Where are you going Shenshen, if I may ask?"

"Yes you may ask that of me...I'm going into the Highstreet to go and meet Galinda." Elphaba's eyes raised at the sound of her girlfriend."

"Oh okay I'll come with you."

"NO YOU WON'T-" everyone replied in unison. looking at each of them, completely perplexed, the emerald woman ran a hand through her inky black locks before folding her arms across her chest.

"What is this bloody nonsense, what aren't you telling me?" Crope piped up.

"Like I said it's nothing that concerns you!"

"Well...it does-" Tibbett mumbled, earning him a kick to the calf nearly making him keel over; it didn't go unnoticed by the chocolate orbs that were Elphaba's. She narrowed them showing that she was onto them.

"Fine, carrying on with whatever you're doing-" she stated to no one in particular. " we'll see you back at the Peach & Kidneys Shenshen and tell Galinda that I'm still waiting for her, she'll know what I mean." That said Shenshen looked to her side and nodded.

"...Okay then...see you guys soon." They all bid her good day for the time being.

( o )

Shenshen made it out towards the corridors and placed her coat around herself before she plunged into the blustery winter air. As she turned the corner she saw Milla and Pfannee advancing in her direction as they spoke. It appeared that they were about to go into the quiet study areas of which she proceeded to follow, mischief sprouted from their faces and didn't look good at all. Slowly creeping forward towards the room she craned her head around the door slightly. As they turned round she braced herself against the other side of the room again. Chancing this time now, she looked back round, Pfannee and Milla were sitting in the far corner too busy whispering to each other. She used this time to swiftly pace around to the other entrance of the quiet study, hunched over and scuttling behind the large bookcase that was beside the two socialites. Keeping quiet she listened in on their conversation.

"Did you manage to get that recording in the end Mills?"

"Mhm-" she replied wiggling it infront of Pfannee who smiled with snide.

"Wow you actually got the blonde to confess about her romantic feelings towards the vegetable, oh this is deemed to be too great!" The girls sniggered at each other as they revelled in their trouble making.

" she practically gave it to me she's that stupid. She gets angry immediately when anything is said about the bloody green bean."

"Well atleast it made it easy, good on you after she treated you that way. I can't believe she come on to you."

" like wise, I think it's appalling!" Shenshen stopped listening in for a moment. Her head snapped away from the bookcase as her mouth fell open; she knew that wasn't true, she knew the truth about what happened between Galinda and Milla and now the munchkinlander is trying to cover it up to protect her own identity. Oh vengeance was going to be good.

"I never thought she would be that way...our Galinda of that...way...I don't understand."

"Me either." Milla agreed.

"Well...not to worry now that we've got the recording what's your plan."

"Well I was going to hand it into Morrible and imply how this confession can begin to revert people's implications of sexuality, woman would come of different age and it is of no influence that should be regulated in our school. It would be all over the press within seconds. Morrible will approve of this, I know she will."

"Ah good thinking Milla...well that's that then, revenge is sweet isn't it not?"

"Isn't it just-" Milla laughed at the thought.

"Anyways I'll see you later Milla, now we have that sorted I'll be on my way, I'll see you after my club and we can think about doing it then, cheerio."

"See you later, Pfan." She waved her fellow socialite goodbye. Clicking her neck from left to right she got off her seat and stretched. Shenshen moved from the bookcase slightly which caused a book to fall off. Milla stopped abruptly to survey the area before she quickly put the recording in the chest that was lying on the highest shelf of the bookcase and within good timing too as a few students walked in. Deciding she needed a toilet she quickly walked out the room, knowing no one would look in there. However there was now one exception. Relieving a breath she forgot she was holding, Shenshen got up from her spot and went over to the chest to find the recording deposited in there. An evil glint surfaced in the glazing of her eyes.

"Well said Pfannee...revenge is sweet." Shenshen said quietly as she took off with the recording.
