Elphaba was sitting on a rock near the water with her monkey friend, Chistery. "That beautiful face…I can't get it out of my head. I've looked everywhere for, Chistery…Where can she be?"
Not far from Elphaba, Galinda laid in the shallow water with her blonde hair covering her face. She wiped it away and looked in shock as she saw her legs. She lifted one up and wiggled the toes. She smiled happily but her happiness was short lived as her winged friend, Scuttle (I don't own him either!) came down.
"Well, what do we have here? Princess Galinda, on land? Shame on you, your father would be furious." He said as he landed on her legs. "Wait there's something different about you. Don't tell me, it's your hair right?" Galinda shook her head smiling.
Scuttle kept on guessing but was stopped by Sebastian. "She's got legs, you idiot! She gave up her voice to the sea witch to be a human!"
Scuttle, by that time, had flown and sat on a rock by the crab. "I know that." He said sheepishly.
"She has to get the human she saved to fall in love with her!" Flounder said excitedly as Galinda stood up shaking, trying to get used to her legs.
"And she's only got three days!" Sebastian added as Galinda fell, splashing water all over Scuttle. "I mean look at her! On legs, human legs! This is a catastrophe! I'm gonna got get her father, like I should've done before!" but before he could leave, he was picked up by Galinda, who was shaking her head and looking at him desperately. Sebastian sighed, "Alright I'll help you get your love…" Galinda's face broke out in a big smile as she set the crab down. "What a soft-shell I have become…" he muttered.
"Ok Galinda. To get her to fall in love with you, you gotta dress like her!" Scuttle exclaimed as he picked up an old sail.
Elphaba was walking around on the sand with Chistery, when he ran off. "Chistery," she screamed as she ran after him. She turned the corner and saw Chistery screeching about something. "What is it? Oh," she said as she saw Galinda, who had a sail wrapped around her body, sitting on a rock. As soon as Galinda saw the girl, she tried to fix her hair as Elphaba walked over to her. "Sorry if he scared you. He does that sometimes." Her eyebrows furrowed. "You seem familiar to me. Wait, have we met before?" Galinda nodded as Elphaba grabbed her hands. "I knew it; you're the one that saved me! What's your name?" Elphaba asked.
Galinda tried to tell her but she forgot that she couldn't speak.
Elphaba noticed her distress. "What is it?" Galinda tapped her throat. "You can't speak?" The mermaid princess shook her head. "Oh…then you can't be who I thought…" Elphaba said, disappointed.
Galinda sighed but tried to sign out to Elphaba what happened to her but she ended up falling in the other girl's arms.
"Whoa steady!" they stared into each other's eyes. "Wow you must have really gone through something bad…Don't worry I'll help you. Come on." Elphaba picked up the blonde girl and carried her bridal style to her mansion.
Later:
Galinda was sitting the bath, playing with the bubbles as Elphaba's maid, Nanny, was washing her hair.
"Washed up from a shipwreck, you poor thing! Well, I'll get you all tidied up," she said as she picked up "dress" that Galinda had on. "I'll...just get this washed for you." She said falsely as she left.
Elphaba was staring out the window, listening to Boq.
"Honestly Elphaba, girls don't just go saving random people and then disappear!"
Elphaba turned around. "I'm telling she is real. I'm going to find her and marry her, Boq." Before Boq could retort, Galinda walked in with a light pink ball gown on, which caused Elphaba's jaw to drop. "Uh…you look beautiful." She said, causing Galinda to blush and smile as she sat down.
Nanny brought out the trays that were filled with crabs.
"Hmm maybe our lovely guest would like to see the city, in something in a tour?" Boq said to Elphaba.
Elphaba was staring at Galinda so intently that she didn't hear Boq talking to her. "I'm sorry. What was that?" She looked at her friend.
Boq frowned. "You can't spend your whole time moping. Get out, have life, do something!"
"Easy, easy. It's not a bad idea that is if she's interested." She looked over at Galinda and asked sweetly as she best she could, "What do you say? Want a tour of my kingdom tomorrow?" Galinda's head bobbed up and down furiously. "
"Wonderful, now let's eat!"
Later after the sun had set, Galinda was watching from her balcony of her room, the beautiful green-skinned girl, playing with Chistery. Galinda giggled silently but jumped when Elphaba looked up at her and waved, smiling. Galinda waved back, embarrassed that she was caught and headed into her room. Elphaba's smile grew as she watched the beautiful blonde disappear.
Galinda sat on her bed, which was so soft that it sunk in. She smiled gleefully and laid her head on the pillow and closed her eyes.
Sebastian was pacing on her bedside table. "Now we need a plan to get that girl to kiss you." But before he continued, he saw Galinda was asleep. "You're hopeless. You know that? Completely and utterly hopeless." He said as he fell asleep next to her.
