Elphaba raised her eyebrows at him. "I am sorry, but are you color blind? How am I the pretty one compared to her?" she asked. Elphaba realized she had just gotten herself into another compliment with her comment against herself. "Sorry, I am still trying to master the whole, taking a compliment thing." she said and looked at both of them. Elphaba knew that she was definatley moving to the Emerald city when older.
Elphaba sighed at his question about her skin. "That is kind of personal." she said not wanting to explain it to him. He asked her to get rid of Lydia. That was sort of rude. Elphaba couldn't do that to Lydia after everything she had done for her. Also where would she go. "And how am I supposed to do that without sounding rude?" Elphaba whispered trying to get a point across that doing that to Lydia would be rude of her.

Adam smiled, “Well,…different isn’t always a bad thing…well, it is if you’re Lydia,” He snickered looking at her. She sighed and looked down at her lap, as he continued. “And I don’t know…Tell her to go hang out with that munchkin kid or something, “ He shrugged. “Or, we could just ditch her and go through the festival ourselves?” He offered,
Lydia sighed, then jolted when she heard a high pitch squill. She looked over and saw a certain curly headed blond girl come running over to the table, with another guy, who looked as if he was being dragged along, “ELPHIE ! !! !I found the PERFECT dress for you today!” She jumped then pulled out a bright pink dress from one of her many shopping bags. “It’ll look BEAUTIFUL on you!” She smiled holding it up to Elphaba’s chest.
The boy with the girl Lydia was taking to be Glinda sighed then saw Elphaba and smiled at her. He waved at her. Was that Fiyero? He’s kind of cute, but eh, Lydia’s more into the shot smart boys. Hmmm…maybe I can get Adam to go off with Glinda while Fiyero stays here with Elphaba, Lydia thought in her mind. Sounded like a good idea…maybe?

Elphaba was about to defend Lydia when Glinda came squealling in. Elphaba gave a small laugh at her friend. "wow...Glinda, it's really...pink." she said and showed Lydia with a small smile. "Do you like it?" Glinda asked. Elphaba put on a smile "It is pretty but, I think you would look much better in it." Elphaba said handing it back to her. It was the one trick that always worked on Glinda. She noticed Fiyero and smiled. "Hey Fiyero." she said.
Glinda gave Lydia a curious look. "Oh, um Glinda, this is my friend Lydia. And this is her brother Adam. Adam, Lydia this is my best friend Glinda and...Fiyero." Elphaba said not sure how to introduce Fiyero. "So what are you doing here?" Elphaba asked them curiously.

Lydia smiled slightly at Glinda, “I know you…” She nodded to the blonde girl, The girl nodded, back, “I’ve seen you around…” She replied then turned to Elphaba. “But Elphie, I bought it just for you, and we can go back to the Ozdust Ballroom sometime, and you can show it off, and everyone will think you’re so pretty when you’re dancing with a date I’ll have to find you,” She said really REALLY quickly, while bouncing a bit.
Lydia cleared her throat then looked at Elphaba, “Did someone spike her drink or is she always this hyper?” Lydia whispered to the girl. Fiyero looked in a daze at Elphaba, Lydia saw him blush a little, but stayed out of Glinda’s conversation. Lydia turned to her brother who was staring at Glinda, also in a daze. Lydia looked around then turned to Adam, “Hey Brother, Why don’t you take Miss. Glinda on a tour of the festival?” Lydia asked.
Adam stood up quickly, “I’d…love to, “He smiled holding his hand out for Glinda to take, while Fiyero sat down in Adam’s spot, “Hope you don’t mind…” He said taking a set next to Elphaba, he smiled at her, clearing his throat. “S-So…about the other day…I …haven’t stopped thinking of you…” He told her. Lydia smiled at the two, while Her brother and Glinda went off. “I can leave if you want me to…” Lydia offered to give Elphaba and Fiyero some time alone.

Elphaba took back the dress not wanting to hurt Glinda's feelings. Lydia asked about Glinda always being this hyper. "It's been worse." she whispered back. She could imagine the torture and pain she would put Lydia through. It was hard to handle Glinda. Elphaba was glad how Lydia got Glinda to leave with Adam. He was making her feel awkward but was being alone with Fiyero a good idea?
He asked to sit next to her. She scooted over to give him more room. "I don't mind." she said softly. Elphaba blushed at what Fiyero said but he was dating Glinda. This wasn't right. Lydia offered to give them privacy. "But where will you..." Elphaba started but Boq came over "hey, Lydia, Want to hang out?" he asked "Where's Nessa?" Elphaba asked alarmed for her sister. "she had to go home." Boq said and started to walk and waited for Lydia at the door.
Elphaba sighed and looked at Fiyero. "Fiyero... You're with Glinda. Do you really think it is appropriate to be thinking of me instead of your girlfriend?" Elphaba said hating how she was doing the right thing. But at least she could spend time with Fiyero and figure this out.

Lydia bit her lip, blushing deeply at Boq then turned to Elphaba, “Should I go?” She whispered to her, though Fiyero seemed to answer for her, he nodded, “Go on, I’ll take care of Elphaba,” he assured her. Lydia glanced at Elphaba then Fiyero. Then stood up to follow Boq. But stopped, “Here’s my number, call me and we’ll meet up later,” She smiled writing down her cell phone number on the napkin before following Boq, “Hey Munchkin,” She greeted him.
Fiyero watched Lydia leave before turning to Elphaba, “I’m sorry…But…I just don’t feel the same as I did when I first met her…” He shrugged, “I’d much rather hang out with you…I mean…you’re so much more interesting than Glinda, and you don’t talk about only yourself.” He said giving her a warm smile. “And…I’d leave her, just to have the chance with you…” He replied sweetly. He hoped he wasn’t sounding too weird to her, as he blushed.

Boq waited by the door for Lydia. Elphaba smiled and grabbed her number and looked at it before placing it next to her on the table. Lydia went over to Boq. "Hey, Lydia. It's been a while. How are you?" He asked and opened the door for her. "Ladies first." he said politely. He was glad that Nessa had to leave so he could spend time with Lydia. ~~ Elphaba blushed at what he said. the fact that he was blushing made her blush more. She smirked "Interesting certainly is an understatement." she said when he complimented her. Glinda was very self-centered but that was who she was. He mentioned leaving Glinda to have a chance with her. "That is really sweet. But you have no idea what you will get yourself into." Elphaba said imagining all the ridicule he would face for being with her. Also how it might ruin her friendship with Glinda.

Fiyero shook his head, “I don’t care what I get myself into…you deserve better than what you’re being treated…” He sighed looking down at the menu as the waitress came to the table. She stared at Elphaba for a moment, until Fiyero cleared his throat as if telling the lady not to stare. She smiled at him, “Sorry for the delay, we’re kind of crowded this afternoon…what can I get you two?” She smiled. Fiyero turned to Elphaba, so she could order first. He liked her so much, maybe even more…Love maybe? He didn’t know, but he sure liked the feeling he had when he was around her.
~~
Lydia blushed and nodded, “It has been,” She agreed then gave a small curtsey when he opened the door for her, “Thank you kind sir,” She replied walking outside into the cold streets of the festival. She hadn’t seen Boq in a few months, but boy was she happy to get some time with him, though she was scared she’d make a fool of herself. What if his girlfriend found out? She wouldn’t like that very much, she was sure of it. She turned to him, “So…what would you like to do?” She asked shyly.

Elphaba looked down and blushed. She knew she was supposed to be treated better. And Fiyero not caring about the consequences of being with her made her like him more than she did. But she was scared to get hurt. The waitress came and asked for what she wanted. "I would like to have water and the Chicken Parmesian please." she said and the waitress wrote it down. "And you?" The waitress asked as she smiled at Fiyero.
~~
Boq smiled as she walked out. "Not a problem lovely lady." Boq replied with a small bow. Lydia asked what they should do. Boq hadn't exactly thought that part out yet. not at all. He wanted Lydia to have a good time. "How about we enjoy the day and Wizo-Mania?" he suggested. It was a great day. One which kept getting better and better. His feelings for Lydia hadn't changed. Unfortunately he was with Nessa and couldn't break it off for some reason.

Fiyero skimmed through the menu quickly, “Um…I’ll have what she’s having…” He replied, not wanting to take the time from the waitress, He closed his menu and handed to her, as she walked away. Then turned to Elphaba. “S-so…Made a new friend I see,” He smiled, trying t strike up a conversation. Maybe it wasn’t best to talk about Glinda right now. “She seems nice and understanding, but that guy with her…seemed…umm…” He didn’t know how to describe him without putting him down.
The waitress brought the food back quickly, a little too quickly. It made Fiyero wonder if it was fresh or just pre made the night before. It smelt very good he licked his lips and took a bite. Didn’t seem fresh but was still pretty good. “Is it good for you?” He asked Elphaba wondering if she liked it.
~~
Lydia blushed at him calling her a ‘lovely lady’ but forced it away, hoping he hadn’t seen. He was still the kind hearted munchkin he’d always been, actually one of her only friends at Shiz. Her heart was beating extremely fast, she thought it would bust any minute. Enjoy Wizo- Mania, ran through her head, “Well…what about Nessa?” She asked. She wasn’t really the type of person to steal someone else’s boyfriend, but if he didn’t like Nessa then she would if she truly wanted to. But there was still Glinda, he probably still felt the same for her.
“Well…how’s Shiz been?...Been on a date with Glinda yet?” She asked in a jokingly way, but still wanted to know. She couldn’t help but feel jealous. She would never be a girl like Glinda, she would never be the girl that Boq would truly want.

Elphaba nodded about her new friend. "Yes. She works at a coffee shop. She is really nice and understanding. It is weird, we kind of have a lot in common." Elphaba said. She never met anyone who had anything in common with her. There weren't many in situations related to Elphaba. Fiyero said about the guy with her. Elphaba gave a small laugh. "Her brother, nothing like her. Flirts with any female he sees." she said not wanting to mention how he flirted with her.
The food came back a little too quickly. Elphaba bravely took a bite of it. "Not bad. Pretty good" she told him. She took another bite. "What do you think of it?" she asked wondering if he liked it. She took a small sip of her water.
~~
Boq heard the first 2 questions she had about him was Nessa and Glinda. "No I haven't been on a date with Glinda yet." he said sort of annoyed. "She said I would be her hero if I took Nessa to the OzDust Ballroom. So I did but she only did it so she could go with Fiyero. And now I am stuck with Nessa." he said. Boq hated how Glinda didn't even care it made him a bit mad but he still liked her.
Then there was Lydia. She was also pretty. Very nice and actually knew his name. She was always there for him. he sometimes wondered if it would be better that he went after her than Glinda. "But other than that Shiz has been pretty good." he answered. He had been getting pretty good grades. "How have you been? Anything new?" he asked her.

Fiyero shrugged, “I’ve had better…then again I’m a prince so, of course you would,” He said slightly annoyed then smiled, “but it’s still really good,” He smiled taking another bite. He loved the fact that he was a prince, and was always bragging about it, But for some reason, he didn’t like bringing it up around Elphaba. For some reason she just didn’t care, that was another thing he liked about her. Not caring what he was, or who he was. “Her brother flirts with all the ladies?” He chuckled then furrowed his eyebrows, “He didn’t…” Fiyero cleared his throat, “Flirt with you did he?” He asked.
Fiyero couldn’t help be feel a little jealous, “You know I can flirt with you too…” He said trying to be better than Lydia’s brother, “Your skin is the color of beautiful spring grass, The fluffy kind I like to lay in and watch the clouds foat by.” He smiled trying to charm her, though he felt a little awkward flirting with Elphaba. He’d much rather just come out and tell her that he likes her, than try to drop hints.
~~
Lydia snickered, “Words of advice…don’t listen to a blonde that cant remember your name,” she said, then put her hand on his shoulder, “Don’t worry…you’ll find someone,” She smiled, I really hope that someone would be me, she thought in her mind, “And that’s nice of you to say…being STUCK with Nessa,” She snickered, it wasn’t nice but then again, just by how Elphaba described her, Lydia knew she wouldn’t like Nessa very much. She sighed after he asked how she had been, “Well…I just found out my favorite teacher was taken away and that my crush is already dating someone…” She replied, she hoped he wouldn’t think he was her crush, though he was, she didn’t want him to know yet. She shrugged her shoulders, “And I was thinking of finishing my senior year of Shiz…maybe coming back.”
“What about you? How have you been?” She asked him, noticing she had been too rude and wasn’t letting him talk. While walking, waiting for him to speak she fiddled with the ends of her white hair, something she does when she’s shy, or blushing.

Elphaba nodded "I guess being a prince you get all sorts of royal treatment." she said hating the fact that he was a prince. mostly because of who she was, what she looked like. Then he seemed to get jealous. Elphaba looked down and took another bite. "Just a little. but completely forgot about me once he saw Glinda." she said. She didn't know why she even brought Glinda into the conversation.
Elphaba shook her head. "You don't have to force yourself to flirt with me." she said "Just do what you usually do around me. Trust me I like that much more." she said. She couldn't find herself liking Fiyero flirting with her. Flirting seemed less...official. But did she really want something official with him? she did.
~~
Boq nodded "If only someone told me that earlier." he said with a humorless chuckle. He smiled hopeful about what she said. he just wanted to find the right girl. the one who wanted him and liked him for who he was. One that actually knew his name. Boq nodded at what she said. "That was horrible." he said about Dr. Dillamond even though he wasn't as affected.
She mentioned her crush having a girlfriend. "who?" he asked curiously. Who did she like? She mentioned going back to Shiz. "you should, I would love to see you every day" he said and slightly blushed at what he said.

Fiyero shrugged, feeling stupid that he attempted to flirt with Elphaba, but smiled, “Yeah I get a lot of treatment…you know I’m sure my family would like you…You should come meet them sometime,” he smiled. Sure his family would probably …stare, but it’s not all about looks, she’s got a great personality. Fiyero took a sip of his water then coughed a little, he was probably getting a cold. “Yeah…you should come…” He nodded, giving a smile. He really REALLY liked Elphaba, he’d do anything for her. But he wasnt sure if she felt the same, or if she did and just didnt want to hurt Glinda. He didnt want to hurt Glinda either, but he couldnt help that he didnt feel the same for Glinda anymore.
~~
Lydia blushed which was extremely noticeable at this moment while she shyly fiddled with her hair. He asked her who her crush was, she shuddered, “Uhh…Y-you …don’t know him…” She blurted out. Nice going Lydia, Lie to him and he’ll never feel the same for you, She said in her mind. Then nodded, “Maybe I will…If you’ll tutor me and get me caught up with where you are at the moment.” She shrugged, it was a good Idea to her. Maybe it would be for him too.

Elphaba drank some of her water when he mentioned meeting his family sometime. She put down her glass and swallowed. She coughed a little. "Your parents?" she asked in between coughs. She managed to stop coughing. "Are you sure that's the best idea? What if they don't like me?" she asked. Since when did you care what people thought of you? she thought to herself but she knew why. His parents not approving of her could impact the relationship she wanted with him.
~~
Boq smiled. She was so cute when she blushed. How she fiddled with her hair. It was really cute. Then she mentioned Boq not knowing him. It seemed like she was lying. So either Boq really didn't know him or Boq knew him but didn't like him. She mentioned tutoring also. Boq smiled. It would be great to tutor her. "Of course I would tutor you Lydia. I would love to have you back at Shiz. I bet Elphaba would also love it" he said. The two girls seemed to have gotten close. "So you two are good friends, right?" he asked curious about how they got along.
