Chapter 5

The crash had been a glass bowl that Clara had dropped and Fiyero volunteered to help her clean it up. He was happy to do it because he got out of Melinda's game and baby name talk. Glinda wasn't as lucky however. It was nearly two hours before Glinda was finally able to get away from her mother's baby name discussion. But it was only because Melinda decided to go out that very night and pick up a more updated baby name book. Melinda just wouldn't quit about this baby thing, but then again, it was never wise to underestimate a Upland.

There was no doubt Glinda was feeling somewhat drained, but as she got into her bedroom and locked the door a feeling of desire struck her like lighting. She prayed that Elphaba would be in her normal spot at this time, and when Glinda opened the door to the closet she wasn't disappointed.

"Boo," Elphaba said, only to have Glinda launch herself at the green woman so their lips could crash together in passion.

"Oh, Elphie, I need you so badly. I can't help myself. Last night was just so wonderful." Glinda said, her breathing ragged once the kiss was broken. "Please, take me. My mother isn't here. She's out so let's make the most of this."

Elphaba needed no further encouragement as she brought their lips together in turn the blonde moaned. The green witch then pressed Glinda against the closet wall with a bit of force. Glinda only moaned louder as a result of the rougher foreplay.

It wasn't long before they moved their way out of the closet and over to the bed. The two woman continued to kiss fiery as they tumbled on to the bed.

"Do you want to act out your fantasy?" Elphaba asked, in between showering her wife's neck with kisses.

As tempting was it sounded Glinda knew they didn't have a lot of time so she answered, "Let's wait to act it out until after my mother leaves. I would hate to rush through it."

"As you wish," Elphaba whispered, as their passion heightened and pink and green came together.

...X...

The next day Melinda sent Glinda and Fiyero off to have a nice relaxing walk together. They didn't argue about taking the walk. It was just going to be relaxing to be away from Mrs. Upland and her baby discussions.

As Melinda watched Fiyero and her daughter leave her sights she decided she would be helpful and clean their bedroom. Mrs. Upland walked into the room and began to neat up. Elphaba was in the closet at the time and hear the sound of someone in the room. The green witch opened the closet door just a crack to see Melinda.

"Oh damn." Elphaba whispered.

If Melinda saw her who knows what would happen. Just then Mrs. Upland began to neat up the bed, but as she pulled up the covers something black caught her attention. Her eyes narrowed in confusion as she picked it up from the bed sheets. It didn't take her long to figure out what it was. Elphaba gulped nervously and knew things were going to get interesting, for Mrs. Upland had just found her black bra from the night before.

Melinda gave a sharp gasp as she covered a hand with her mouth before saying, "Fiyero is cheating on my little girl! Sweet Oz, he's cheating on her!" With that Melinda ran out of the room with bra in hand.

"Damn, this is not good," Elphaba whispered as she held her head in her hands.

...X...

When Fiyero and Glinda came back from their walk they found Melinda sitting at in the livingroom nursing a cup of tea.

"Did you enjoy your walk?" Melinda asked, as she eyed the Prince.

"Yes, it was quite fun," Glinda replied. "Well I think I'm going to freshen up a bit." With that the blonde left the room. Fiyero was going to follow her but Melinda stopped him.

"Not so fast, Fiyero, I need to have a word with you."

"All right," Fiyero answered, he missed the anger in Mrs. Upland's voice.

"Do you love my daughter?" Melinda asked suddenly.

"Um, of course, I do." Fiyero said, as he tried to keep his tone strong.

"And you would never break her heart, right?"

"Never," Fiyero replied. "I just want her to be happy,"

"Then explain this!" Melinda spat as she jumped up from her chair and held up the black bra. "I found this in your bed! I know my Glinda and she never wears black! Who have you been seeing? Is it that maid Clara? Tell me now!"

"I haven't been cheating on your daughter!" Fiyero stuttered, he pulled back slightly.

"You tell me the truth you bastard!" Melinda screamed, at the Prince, as she grabbed him roughly. "Are you cheating on my daughter? Tell me!"

"No, of course not!" Fiyero answered, in fear. Mrs. Upland's eyes were consumed by rage and there was no telling what she was going to do next.

"Well you just listen to me, you Prince, if I ever catch you cheating on my daughter I will hang you from the tallest tree in Oz! I'm not going to forget this," Melinda spat as she shoved him away. "I'm watching you. Mark my words I will find out who this black bra belongs to!" Melinda added, before walking away.

"Sweet Oz, I'm in way over my head," Fiyero whispered, as he wiped some sweat from his brow.

"Master Fiyero is everything all right?" Clara asked, as she came into the room and rushed to his side. "I heard Mrs. Upland yelling so harshly."

"I think so." Fiyero replied. "Can you tell me where Glinda is?"

"In her bedroom," Clara answered.

"Thank you," Fiyero said, as he hurried upstairs to find her.

...X...

Glinda was brushing her hair when a knock came from her behind her door.

"Come in," Glinda called out hoping it wasn't her mother.

Fiyero wasted no time entering the room. When the blonde turned around she saw Fiyero was breathing heavy and his eyes were wide in fear.

"Fiyero, what's wrong?"

"Glinda, things are getting out of control!" Fiyero said, his voice wild. "Your mother just attacked me and asked me if I was cheating on you. She found a black bra in your bed this morning!"

"Sweet Oz, she found Elphaba's black bra from last night! What did you say to my mother?" Glinda asked, her voice was now consumed by worry.

"Of course I'm not cheating on you! We aren't even married anymore! So how can I cheat on you?" Fiyero retorted. "Glinda, this has to stop. You're mother is crazy!"

"I know she is, but she won't leave." Glinda answered, as tears started to slip down her face. "I don't know what to do!"

"Glinda, please, don't cry," Fiyero replied, his voice softer. "We'll think of a way so your mother can leave. Then you and Elphaba can go back to having more amazing sex without worrying that your mother is going to hear." That got a giggle out of Glinda as she wiped her tears away. "Don't worry, there must be a way." The Prince added, as he gave the blonde a smile.

"Well Elphaba is looking for a spell in the Grimmerie that could help. But she has had no luck yet." Glinda answered.

"Help with what?" Fiyero asked. "Is she looking for a spell that would make Melinda disappear?"

"No," Glinda replied with a giggle. "She's looking for a spell that would help Elphaba and I start a family together. If I get pregnant my mother will leave." With that the Good Witch handed Fiyero his coat. "But for now I would suggest you get out of the house, well, at least until my mother cools off a bit."

"I think that's a wise idea." Fiyero answered, as he took the coat and gave the blonde a quick hug. "Don't worry things will work out." Just then a loud scream could be heard from downstairs.

"Glinda! Glinda, where are you?" It was Melinda.

"Leave out the back door so my mother doesn't see you," Glinda said, as she hurried out her room and headed towards her mother's voice.

...X...

Glinda made it downstairs to see her mother pacing around in a wild fashion as she held Elphaba's bra in a white knuckled grip. When Mrs. Upland saw her daughter she hurried over to her.

"Glinda, I have some devastating news!" Melinda wailed as she fell into her daughter's arms.

"Mother what is it?" Glinda asked, playing along.

"I think your husband is cheating on you!" Melinda replied, in an over dramatic tone, as she pretended to almost faint. "I found THIS in your bed!" With that the older woman held up the black bra.

"Oh Sweet Oz." Glinda whispered.

"He denies seeing anyone. But, if that's the case, then where did this come from?" Melinda asked, as she shook the bra. "I know this isn't yours. You don't wear black."

"Maybe...maybe it's Clara's bra," Glinda suggested.

"So your suggesting he's sleeping with the maid?" Melinda asked.

"No, I mean she could have let her bra in my room by mistake when she was changing, I mean, one never knows. And one should never jump to conclusions so quickly." Glinda said, as she hugged her mother tightly in the attempts to comfort her.

"Oh, Glinda maybe you're right," Melinda replied, as she pulled away and gave her hair a toss. "But Fiyero does stay out late at night. Oh, yes, he says he's working, but well it just wouldn't surprise me if he was cheating on you now that I found this. Don't worry, my dear, I will keep a close eye on him."

"I wouldn't worry about it," Glinda answered, as she gave a sigh and went to leave but her mother stopped her.

"Where is Fiyero now?"

"I sent him off until you cool down a bit. I didn't want to see you thrown in jail for the murder of a Winkie Prince." The blonde replied.

"You're a smart girl," Melinda said, as she held her head. "All this excitement is making me quite flushed I'm going to lay down."

"Good idea, Mother, I will have Clara bring you a cup of a tea," Glinda replied.

"Make it wine," Melinda answered, as she hurried off. Glinda gave her mother a smile as she headed off to her own room to be with her green wife.
