    Summary

    Galinda paused, her eyes tracing the soft profile of the girl's face. The way her tears hugged down the crease of her nose, the way her eyelashes, a little damp, fluttered in the soft light, and the way her lips pressed together in an attempt to hide the quivering. She leaned in, forcing Elphaba’s eyes to meet hers. Her heart skipping a little, she dabbed her finger on her cheek, wiping the tears.
    “Well today is your lucky day..” she whispered, “I’m not going home.” Her eyes lit up as she nodded softly at Elphaba. Worried if she spoke too loud or too fast, Elphaba would retreat and close her off.
    It felt too delicate, Galinda chose her words carefully, observing her reactions, cautiously trying to bring comfort to a girl who had never been comforted in her life.
    “We are having Christmas together this year” she paused.
    “What?” Elphaba whispered, turning her head in confusion.
    “A proper one, not a ‘normal day’ type of thing, but proper Christmas Elphie.”
