    Summary

    "Maybe they wouldn’t listen if we just told them to do all this, but what if we showed them we had a change of heart? Nothing would change their minds more than if their famously rivaled captains.. dated?”

    Glinda blinks, opens her mouth to say something, closes it again, and then guffaws. She wipes a tear from the corner of her eye, face flushed with amusement, and then catches the grimace on Elphaba’s face.

    “Oh, you’re serious. Oz, I don’t know what to say, you’re just not really my type. I mean I’m flattered, really, but the whole enemies to lovers trope is really a little corny. Unfortunately I actually can’t stand you, not in the romantic secret tension way. Though that would’ve been so chic if you were literally anyone else.”

    Elphaba squints, and then lets out a sigh of frustration. “Jeez, Glinda, no, I’m not asking you out. I’m saying we fake date."

    OR

    It's a well known fact at Shiz Regional High that basketball captain Elphaba Thropp and cheerleading captain Glinda Upland do not get along. But when they try to save their teams by faking a relationship, maybe they'll find they never really loathed each other after all.

    Summary

    Galinda pulled the door open. “I’m perfectly capable of opening my own door,” Elphaba said as she stood.

    Galinda looked genuinely confused. “No, see—that’s actually my job.”

    Elphaba gave her a dry look. “I don’t remember hiring you.”

    Galinda grinned. “It came free when you married me. Duh.”

    Summary

    She didn’t even really ask a question when she told Elphaba what she’d done, when she told her about the house, the biggest purchase of her life: a safe place; a place where, if she’s horrendibly honest, she imagines that maybe they could grow old. Galinda never saw the appeal of it before, of the ache in her bones or the aging lines on her face.

    But looking in the mirror lately, they’re there— and she doesn’t hate it. She doesn’t hate knowing she’s changed. That they both have.

    (Or, a post-canon fix-it. Elphaba comes back to her. Galinda buys them a house. The eroticism of a gentle life.)

    Summary

    The bell rings, shrill and abrupt before Elphaba could open her mouth to complain again. The blonde beams, casting her one more look, “I’ll look forward to seeing where our schedules overlap, lab partner.”

    Elphaba nods, suddenly feeling like her cheeks might catch fire. “I’ll see you.”

    And for the first time in recorded history, Elphaba Thropp walks into her next class — Latin — grinning ear to ear.
