Hello! I'm really happy! This is the chapter you have all been waiting for... *laughs evilly*

Wickedly Hope Pancake: Yayayayayayay! Well, you already know the secret sooooo...

WickedFrenchHorn: Don't think otherwise...

Doglover645: Haha, Thank goodness!

iamgoku: Yes, yes she is. Hah, I loved writing those parts, I thought it was really cool! Well, don't die! You're gonna find out now anyways! No, he doesn't know, so he isn't acting suspicious.

Warning: This chapter is really short. I wanted to go on, but I liked leaving you with a wicked cliffie was better. I'm so nice!

Disclaimer: Why, just why?

After escaping Galinda's bear hug, Arietta smiled. Finally, she was here. Honestly it was hard being able to see and hear everything, but no one being able to see or hear you.

"It's good to have you back, Ria." Cierrah said.

"It's good to be back, Cierr." Then she frowned and her hand flew up to her neck. "Where is it?" She demanded. Cierrah looked down and shuffled her feet.

"He took it."

"What!"

"Sorry." Cierrah said.

"That is the last thing I have left of my family!" Arietta shouted. Cierrah scoffed lightly, making the brunette send her a warning glance that clearly said: Don't.

Cierrah sighed. Sometimes her friend had so many secrets she couldn't keep up.

"Come on." Elphaba said. "Let's get to class."

Arietta made to follow her, but Galinda grabbed her arm. "Are you sure you should be walking?" She asked, her voice filled with concern.

"I'm not an invalid, Galinda!" She snapped, instantly regretting seeing Galinda's face. "Sorry, Glin. I'm just a bit on edge."

More than a bit.

Fiyero had been improving. He no longer felt like a ton of bricks were pounding inside his head wanting to get out. The only downside was that now he didn't have an excuse not to go to school. Sighing, he sat down in his usual desk in Dr. Dillamond's class and looked at Arietta's desk wistfully. He saw Elphaba grinning joyfully.

"What is it?" He asked.

"Nothing." She answered grinning coyly.

In walked Arietta moments after taking her spot next to him. Fiyero watched the brunette with her mouth agape. Without turning to him, she smirked. "Close your mouth, Fiyero. You'll catch flies." She said making Fiyero smile.

During the class, Elphaba could see Cierrah and Arietta exchanging notes. At first, Arietta looked annoyed with her blonde friend, but then something that Cierrah had written made her stiffen. She quickly scratched something back and refused to write anymore.

What are they hiding? Elphaba thought. The urge to find out overpowered her common sense. She turned to go follow them but Dr. Dillamond stopped her.

"Miss. Elphaba?" He asked.

"Yes, Dr. Dillamond?"

"I heard about your friend. How is it that she is ok?"

"It's tricky business."

"You and your friends cast a spell, right?"

"How did you know?" She asked surprisedly. Dr. Dillamond smiled. "A Goat always knows, Miss. Elphaba." He said wisely.

Elphaba smiled at him, then turned and ran out. She caught sight of Fiyero and caught up to him. "Hey, have you seen Arietta?" She asked, panting for air.

"No, sorry. She ran out quickly holding that note she and Cierrah were writing on." Fiyero told her.

So she's probably by the dumpsters. Elphaba reasoned. She ran over to the closest one just in time to see Arietta throwing something out. Bingo!

She found the paper with ease, and tore it open.

I'm So, so, so glad you're back :D! : C

Yeah, Yeah! Can I concentrate on the lesson now! : A

Have you told them yet? : C

Told who what? : A

Don't play dumb, Ria. Have you told Fiyero? : C

No. : A

Have you told Elphaba? : C

No. : A

Have you told ANYONE?! : C

Let's just assume that for the time being the answer to all your questions are no. : A

You can't hide the truth forever. : C

I know and I don't plan to young samurai. : A

Oz, Arietta T. Sometimes I don't know what to do with you! : C

Don't call me that! What if someone sees! Now stop! I have to pay attention! : A

Then Cierrah left more notes, but Arietta didn't write anymore. But what was there had left Elphaba flabbergasted. Arietta T.? Wasn't her last name Renaldi?

Then realization hit her. It all made sense! Arietta's instant hatred for Fiyero, her odd behavior towards his parents. Arietta's last name wasn't Renaldi.

It was Tiggular.

Dun, dun DUN! Haha! Ok, I know some of you saw that coming, but still. Which ones of you didn't. So yeah. Review and I'll give you virtual MNM cupcakes with whipped cream. (Yes, I'm desperate. But honestly! Over 750 views and literally only 27 reviews?!)
