A/N: Thanks for all the reviews! You guys make my day. Sorry this chapter's a little shorter but it's 2:30 and I'm really tired.
For a week nothing happened, but Elphaba didn't forget about the letter or about Rosali, unlike Galinda who seemed not to have a care in the world other than Fiyero and the latest fashions. However, it did appear to Elphaba that Galinda was becoming more frazzled as the week went by and more obsessive over her wardrobe. Galinda went from spending her normal two hours getting ready to spending three and even four hours only to decide in the end that it was no good and want to start all over again. One day near the end of the week when Galinda had been shut away in their bathroom for nearly four hours when Elphaba decided she couldn't take it anymore,
"Galinda," She said knocking on the door, "this has got to stop; this is ridiculous come out of the bathroom." The door opened and there stood Galinda curling her already very curly hair with her wand.
"Oh Elphie tell me what you think, I curled this side of my hair with the wand, and this side with the curler, which looks better? I think the magic gives it a little something extra don't you?" Both sides of Galinda's hair looked exactly the same to Elphaba so she decided to ignore the question,
"Galinda, seriously, you have to come out of the bathroom, you've been in there for four hours."
"Alright Elphie, I'm almost done give me five more minutes." Galinda said turning her head from side to side to look in the mirror. But Elphaba wasn't deterred, she knew what "five more minutes" meant and frankly she had to pee.
"Galinda if you don't come out of that bathroom right now, I'm going to make you come out." Galinda sat down her wand and looked at Elphaba with wide irritated eyes.
"Elphaba, I told you I'd be out in five minutes."
"Galinda I know that you use fixing yourself up to deal with stress, but honestly! This can't be healthy, and I have to pee."
"Whose stressed!? I'm not stressed. And 'pee' is not a very nice word Elphaba, you should 'I need to use the ladies room-,'" But Elphaba didn't wait to hear the end of what Galinda had to say she grabbed Galinda's arm and pulled. "No! I won't leave, this is my bathroom too, and you can hold it for five minutes!" Galinda Grabbed the wall with her free hand and resisted Elphaba,
"Let—go—Galinda!" Elphaba said pulling with all her might.
"No!" Galinda yelled back getting her leg around the wall too to hold her in place. Then Elphaba wrapped her arm around Galinda's waist with her free arm and tried to pick her up. As Galinda was smaller than Elphaba this wasn't difficult but Galinda still maintained a firm grip on the wall. "Put me down Elphaba Thropp!"
"Not until you—come—out—of—there!" And with one final pull Galinda lost her grip. Elphaba lost her footing, and Galinda came falling down on top of her. Galinda was straddling Elphaba with her legs slung over the green girls hips so that their pelvic bones were pressing against each others. Galinda's tooth hit Elphaba's lip hard and then their faces were mere centimeters apart; they were both breathing heavily
the air was blowing against each others faces. Then their eyes locked and both of their breathing hitched. Galinda's curls were shrouding Elphaba's face so that they were hidden it their own cocoon of blonde ringlets. Neither moved nor said a word, they both just stared into the ferment storm of each other's eyes. Galinda's were like a stormy blue see deep with unrequited yearnings, while Elphaba's were like a dark cyclone swirling in uncertainty. Elphaba shifted slightly under Galinda which caused Galinda to issue a strange throaty noise passed her lips, Elphaba froze again. Then Galinda dropped her gaze to Elphaba's green lips which were parted in shock, and then she dragged her eyes back up to Elphaba's as if to ask permission. Elphaba stopped breathing, and then Galinda leaned it—but at that moment,
There was a knock on the door.
