A few Hours later Fiyero and Elphaba were walking down a long corridor when Galinda skipped up to them excitedly.

"Hey Elphie, hey Fiyero!.... OH MY OZ Fiyero... did you draw those blue things on yourself with crayon..."

"Um... No... They're tribe markings..." Fiyero said quietly, Elphaba saw his discomfort so she looked at him with sympathy and took over.

"They're really something aren't they Galinda?" Elphaba asked hoping to get a positive response from her.

"Well... I think that they look really weird... no offense Fiyero! When you take me to the party tonight you'll have to cover those up!" Galinda said as she saw the glare that Elphaba was giving her.

"WHAT? I'm not taking you to the party tonight! What gave you that idea?" Fiyero asked with a puzzled look.

"Me silly, who wouldn't want to go with me... I had so many offers so you should be thankful..." Galinda considered.

"Well, I can't go with you because..." Fiyero paused as he tried to think of an excuse "I'm taking Elphaba!"

"WHAT?!" the two girls shouted in unison.

"I'm taking Elphaba" He shrugged as he shot a pleading glance at Elphaba "isn't that right?"

"Um... yes" Elphaba mumbled.

"Well, I suppose I'll leave you two to make plans then... BYE!" Galinda stomped off as for once she hadn't got her own way.

"Fiyero, why the hell did you tell her that!" Elphaba shouted as she folded her arms.

"Well, I didn't want to go with her AND I thought it might be fun!" He said as he held his arms up in defence.

"Galinda is NEVER going to speak to me again now you idiot!" She said in a hushed tone so they didn't draw attention to themselves.

"Look, I'm sorry but please say you'll go with me?" Fiyero pleaded. He really did want to go with Elphaba and it would give him a chance to spend some time with her.

"I told you parties really aren't my thing and..." Elphaba paused as she looked at Fiyero. She had never been invited to a party before let alone be invited by someone like Fiyero; she knew his heart was in the right place "Um... Alright BUT on one condition, we can go when I want to go"

"That's fantastic!" Fiyero smiled triumphantly at Elphaba as he gave her a hug to show his thanks. Elphaba stiffened slightly as she wasn't used to being touched but she found his embrace strangely comforting...

Fiyero and Elphaba parted both thinking about the night ahead of them.
