Sorry for the long wait on this chapter – I had serious writers block!
A few days later Galinda and Elphaba sat in the courtyards of Shiz. The sun was shining down brightly and the trees swayed in the light breeze. Galinda chatted whilst Elphaba tried to read.
"You see Elphie; I don't see why Morrible has to be so harsh!" Galinda emphasised and then paused "Elphie? Helloooo?"
"Mmmh?" Elphaba said not taking her eyes away from the book.
"Are you listening to me?" Galinda moaned
"No" Elphaba quickly responded before she shifted position to lie on her stomach in the sun. She put her book down, it wasn't really that interesting anymore.
"Elphie?" Galinda said.
"WHAT!" Elphaba cried "Is it you're mission in life to constantly annoy me!?!?"
"Maybe? Yes?" Galinda said with a confused look "I don't know!"
"Sweet Oz!" Elphaba mumbled not noticing the giggles coming from behind her as she rested her head on her arms in defeat. Elphaba felt a tap her on the shoulder, she was about to shout at Galinda for being relentlessly annoying. She spun round to lay on her back only to see Fiyero's cheeky grin looking down at her from his seat on the grass next to her.
"Hey Fae" He said before leaning over Elphaba to give her a kiss.
"Hi" She said with a smile as she looked up into his eyes.
"Humph... that's more of a response than I get! It's the first time she's smiled all day!" Galinda whined.
"Give it a rest Glin" Elphaba said as sat up and leaned against the tree they were sitting under "Besides I haven't had reason to smile up until now..."
"Awwww Elphie, that's so cute!" Galinda giggled as Fiyero laid down and rested his head on Elphaba's lap. Galinda quickly got put the camera she had in her bag and snapped the pair smiling at each other. She decided that this picture was definitely going on her wall.
"Do you two want to come to a little party tonight?" Galinda asked flipping through her very busy social schedule planner.
"That would be great!" Fiyero answered earning a glare from his girlfriend "Come on Fae, It'll be fun you need to have a break once in a while!"
"Fine!" Elphaba relented and mentally cursed herself. She knew she was going to regret this later.
"OOOH that's so thrillifying! Elphie, I'll give you another makeover and you can wear one of my dresses!" Galinda got up of the ground and dragged Elphaba up with her "Come on Elphie, we don't have much time its already gone 5! Fiyero, come by our room at 7... BYEEEEEEE!"
"I hope you're happy!" Elphaba called angrily at Fiyero who was laughing hysterically on the ground.
"Bye my Fae, have a nice time!" He chuckled.
Galinda kept a tight hold on Elphabas wrist all the way back to their room because she knew Elphaba would try to get away. Galinda was surprisingly strong for her size. They were soon at their room and Galinda set to work straight away.
"First dresses..." Galinda said as she scanned her closet for something for both of them to wear "Ok I'll wear this baby blue dress with... these shoes.... and this necklace! Elphie come over here and help me choose for you!"
Elphaba obeyed because she didn't want to be stuck in some pink, puffy monstrosity.
"What about this?" Galinda asked holding up a dress that was very similar to the one Galinda was presently wearing only red.
"No way, I'd look like Luralinemas!" Elphaba laughed.
"Hmmmm... this one?" Galinda held up a pink dress that was quite plain for Galinda's standards. But it was still pink!
"Glin, no pink!" Elphaba reasoned "Something a little darker please!"
"Well, I did buy this dress in case of any emergencies..." Galinda flipped through her closet to find what she was looking for. The dress Galinda pulled out was a deep green – almost black. It had a simple pattern on that shimmered in the light and it was definitely perfect of Elphaba "Here go try this on; it will look amazifying on you Elphie!"
About an hour and a half later Galinda had managed to give Elphaba a small makeover and get herself ready too. They sat together as they waited for Fiyero.
"Elphie, you look beautiful!" Galinda gushed.
"Thanks Glin" Elphaba mumbled. She knew it was no use arguing compliments from Galinda – she had tried it many times before. "You look great too"
Elphaba sat in thought whilst Galinda rambled on about the latest new fashion trend in Ozmopolitain.
