I'm Not Wicked

Part Seven

"What do you think?" Gabriela asked with an exited tone.

She was holding Eleanor's shoulders as they both stood in front of a mirror in Gabriela's room.

Eleanor was now wearing a dark blue dress that went down to her shin, and the same brown boots with black tights.

Her long, nearly black hair (curled by Gabriela) reaching her lower back, the peaces in front tucked behind her ears. She was wearing some light eyeshadow as well, a bit obstructed by her glasses.

"Is the flower needed?" Eleanor asked, pointing to the pink flower clip in her hair.

"Yes!" Gabriela stated excitedly, adjusting it on the girls head.

Gabriela was wearing a gorgeous blue dress. It was glittery with a very fluffy skirt.

Her blonde hair was also curled, and she was wearing blue eyeshadow. She had also put on a pair of high, sparkly blue heals, and a tiara for her head.

"Oh," Gabriela said, turning Eleanor towards her, "you will have to meet my mom at the party! Oh, and you could meet some of my old friends as well! Everyone from Oz will be here after all."

"Oh, no!" Eleanor mumbled worriedly, going a bit pail.

(Light green?)

"It'll be fine! They'll love you." Gabriela said, now fixing her lipgloss in the mirror.

"It's not them I'm worried about!" Eleanor said, now walking in circles.

Gabriela turned to Eleanor with a confused look.

"Well then, who are you worried-"

"Hello! Are you two in there?" Mal's voice was heard through the door.

"We're coming!" Eleanor yelled back.

She quickly grabbed her bag and Gabriela did the same.

Gabriela walked out with Eleanor as she tried to rack her brain of who she was worried about.

*at the party...

Eleanor wandered around with Carlos, holding onto his arm. At every little sound she jumped. For most of the party she had been staring at the sky.

"Are you okay?" Carlos asked, sounding worried.

"I'm fine." Eleanor answered.

She still seemed stressed out. A nervous expression had been plastered on her face for the past hour.

"Carlos! Ella!" Jay yelled.

The two looked across the courtyard to see Jay waving his hand in the air.

"Come on, maybe doing something fun will get your mind of things." Carlos suggested.

Time pasted and it seemed Carlos was right; Eleanor had calmed down a tremendous amount.

She played a couple games of croquet as Carlos's partner. After a couple games he went to get the two of them some drinks, leaving Eleanor alone.

"Hello," Eleanor heard a voice from behind her.

She spun around, quickly freezing up.

"I'm Madame Morrible." The woman said, reaching out her hand for her to shake.

"I-I..." Eleanor stuttered before trailing off, "I have to go." She said, quickly trying to walk away.

Unluckily, Madam Morrible grabbed her elbow, wrapping her arm around her.

Eleanor tried to push her away as Madam Morrible started walking.

Gabriela was talking with Glinda when she noticed this.

"Mom!" Gabriela said, getting her attention as she smacked her mother's arm.

She pointed to Eleanor with Madam Morrible .
Glinda looked over and set down the drink she was holding.

"Okay," she said, looking at Gabriela, "I'll go get her, you stay here."

"But mom-"

"No buts!" Glinda interrupted.

Gabriela crossed her arms over her chest, pouting.

"Fine."
