"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."ORIt'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.
