"Come on, Elphie! We're going to be late!"

Elphaba reached for her cloak and started down the stairs after Glinda. Together, they walked down the street, hand in hand, where the parade was just beginning. They shoved their way to the front and stood along the curb. Down the road, they could see the Wizard's hot air balloon floating awkwardly along the parade route toward them. As he passed them, Glinda kissed Elphaba for luck, and Elphaba threw her cloak into his basket, hitting him square in the face. Hand in green hand, they disappeared into the crowd, laughing.

A/N- Thank you to "Paige Halliwell" for the review! I know you're all dying to know what happens to Glinda and Chuffrey, and what will happen to Glinda and Elphaba, since Glinda is a sort of celebrity. And maybe the Wizard's reaction, hmmm? PM me if you'd like to see further development of this... =)

And I promise "The Koi" is still in the works!
