So here's the next chapter as promised. Thanks to Wickedly Hope Pancake, who reviews every chapter she reads. This is for you! Also for some reason, whenever I post a new chapter it doesn't appear new. You can only tell if there's a new chapter if you click on it again. Can anyone answer why?

P.S it's not that much longer than the last one, but still. It's something.

Disclaimer: I wish

"It's a gift for you. A hat. It's really... Sharp! And, and this years pink is black. look, you two deserve each other. You're both so, uh, smart. So here! Out of the goodness of my heart." Galinda rambled on and on about Elphaba's gracious gift given to her by Galinda herself. She didn't want to take it, but Galinda had helped Nessa get a date, so she decided to give her roomate the benefit of the doubt.

Arietta on the other hand, definitely knew something was up. She could feel it. And not those normal feelings that you get and are usually wrong about, Arietta's feelings were different. To make a long story short, the 10- year old had learned to trust her intuition. Sho she knew something was up. She just had to figure out what it was before Elphaba became a victim of the blonde's wrath.

"Why, thank you Galinda. This is unusually kind of you." Elphaba said

Arietta snorted. "Yeah unusually being the key word." Galinda sent her a glare then turned back to Elphaba and smiled. "Yes, well I do believe that this hat will beautyficate you." She said.

"That's not a word." Arietta and Elphaba said at the same time. "Yah ok. Woah! I gotta go get ready for the party tonight! Remember it's at the Ozdust!" She said running back to the dorms. (A/N they're at the library. Sorry forgot to say it.)

Arietta sighed. "Galinda, the party is in four hours." she said. Galinda turned around frantically. "I know! I'll barely have enough time to get ready!" She yelled. Alright master plan set in motion. Now all the green bean has to do is wear that hideous hat, become even more of a laughingstock and move out of my dorm and Shiz! This better work. I'm wasting time thinking!

Elphaba rolled her eyes. "Blondes."

"Tell me about it." She responded then turned to the green girl. "You're not actually going to wear that hat, right?"

"Why?"

"Because this is Galinda we're talking about. She hates us. Especially you. Why would she do anything nice for us?" Arietta reasoned.

"Look Aria, I don't trust Galinda as far as I could throw her, but she did something once for my sister. I'm only returning the favor."

"By accepting a gift?"

Elphaba sighed. "By getting her into my sorcery seminar with Madame Morrible."

Arietta gaped at her. "Madame Morrible? The creepy fish-lady!? Why would you do that!" She yelled.

"Like I said, returning the favor!"

"Elphaba!"'she yelled and a nearby vase exploded. Arietta visibly blanched while Elphaba stared at the broken remains of the vase then back at Arietta while opening and closing her mouth. "H-how did you do that?"

Arietta sighed. "Yeah, uh, funny story..."

Oooh the plot thickens. Yay my first cliffie! Yay even though it's not a very important one. But still. Reviews make me update faster! And like always, what were your fave lines?

Virtual cake to those who review. :))))
