Fiyero jumped back in shock, "Woah! Green! Why are you green?"
"Fiyero!" scolded Galinda, "You can't just ask someone why they're green!"
Elphaba scoffed and rolled her eyes, "Its fine Galinda, let the Winkie think what he wants to think."
"Fiyero…" said Galinda warily, "Apologize. Right now."
"Well, I would, if it wasn't for the fact that I have to go…to….Narnia. On…an important trip, involving…chocolate."
Fiyero you genius! I am so good at coming up with lies!
"Fiyero!"
"Can't talk dear, must be getting on my way." Fiyero kissed Galinda quickly on the cheek and ran, no, sprinted off.
"Elphie I'm sorry, I'm sure he didn't mean it."
"No, it's fine Galinda. Really, I'm used to it."
As much as Galinda wanted to help, she knew that it wouldn't be easy for her to convince the Winkie Prince.
"Well…ok then." Mumbled Galinda, "Oh wait! Elphie, I know we aren't really that close but um, would you mind if maybe…I gave you a makeover?
"Yes."
Galinda squealed happily, "Really? For truly and honestly, no lie?"
"Yes." Said Elphaba, "Yes I would mind."
"Oh. Never mind then." Sighed Galinda dejectedly.
"But well, didn't you say something about shopping earlier this morning? I guess I just need something else to do, the library's closed after someone filled it with purple jello."
If the girls listened carefully at that very moment, they might have been able to hear a certain Munchkin laughing manically at his 'brilliant' plan.
Of course they weren't listening for such a thing for Galinda had jumped up and started going on about how they were going to have ever so much fun shopping this weekend.
Ohhh, here we are! At the Ozmopolitan; my absolute favourite store ever! OhmyOz those pink sweaters are ADORAAAABLE.
"Isn't this fun Elphie?"
"Uh, sure I guess."
"Come here! Help me pick out a jacket, I was thinking about this nice pink one with pink sparkles and pink feathers!"
Blah Bla Blah Bla Blah Bla Blah, OOO! Pretty black hoodie!
Wait what did Galinda say? Sheesh Elphaba you should be paying attention to what she's saying. Cried Logic, Oh that is pretty black hoodie…
Yes, I know, but I don't really feeling like spending money on clothes. I have clothes. I don't need more clothes.
"Oooo, Elphaba you should totally get that! It's prettiful! But in pink. Everything's prettier in pink."
"Maybe…but no to the pink part."
"Just wait here then, I'm going to go try some of these on!"
Elphaba sighed.
After what seemed like seventy thousand hours, there was still no sight of Galinda.
I wish I had ADHD, maybe then I wouldn't be able to count the all the minutes. How many clothes does she have if it's taking her this long?
As Elphaba roamed the store aimlessly, she accidentally rammed head on into a mannequin. Only it wasn't a mannequin, it was Fiyero.
Oh well, that's an odd looking green hood- OHMYOZ IT'S ELPHABA.
"Uh. Hi."
"Aren't you supposed to be in Narnia? Aslan doesn't wait no matter what the circumstance."
"What are you talking about?"
THE LIE, THE LIE YOU FOOL! Screamed Fiyero's almost non existent shallow brain.
"Oh right! Uh, I …he sent me here... to get…scarves…" stammered Fiyero.
"Who do you think you're fooling?" asked Elphaba spitefully, "That was the most ridiculous excuse I have ever heard!"
"That doesn't mean much coming from the cousin of the Jolly Green Giant."
Although it shouldn't have, Fiyero's comment made hurt Elphaba, and she walked off without a further word.
Well…that went differently from what I expected. Thought Fiyero
I hate him, I hate him so much, I absolutely LOATH Fiyero Tiggular! Angrily thought Elphaba
Galinda chose that particular moment to finally exit the change rooms.
"Elphie, what's wrong?"
"Nothing."
She's obviously sulking about something, but what?
Galinda then saw Fiyero a few meters away looking at assorted hats. She wanted to beckon him to join them, but then she realized what must have happened.
"It was Fiyero wasn't it?" asked Galinda
"…Yes, yes it was. I just can't stand him! I don't understand how you can possibly like him Galinda! He's shallow, self absorbed, ignorant, and…and…a jerk!" yelled Elphaba, fuming with rage.
"Don't worry Elphie, I'll go talk to him"
"Wait no! It doesn't matter, really!"
But Galinda had already pranced off.
