Chapter 3
Elphaba smiled. She thought, "Well, at least we can say that we met up together and helped each other. She doesn't have to know that we helped with finding classes and he held me by the waist..." Her thoughts trailed off, since her body felt like it was walking on air ever since he had held her.
"Do you want to go out tonight?" He quizzed her.
"Of course, I do!"
"So I'll pick you up at eight?"
"Sounds awesome. I'll just tell Galinda I'm going to the library. That won't raise attention, except for the fact that I'll be dressed up better. I can say I'm going to a lecture on the Stage Arts of..."
"I've already planned everything: where we're going to eat, what we're going to do, how to lie to her, what to say..."
"Oh, you're so nice and considerate. At least, to me."

"Elphaba..."
"Anyway, thanks for walking me back. I'm not letting you in the room, there's no point for you to see what I look like without... yet."
"Are you suggesting what I think you're suggesting?"
"Oh, yes. If you will love me that much, and in that way."
He laughed. She left his presence then, walking into the room, making him feel as if he had been visited by a ghost. An emerald one that had filled him with happiness. Two minutes later, Elphaba walked in the dorm. It was easy to tell Galinda lies.
