>chapter 4<

As time passed, Elphaba realised just how trapped she was.
She couldn't go back to Glinda because, well, she thought she was dead. ConVenieNt
She can't stay here, with Fiyero! It doesn't feel right. But she doesn't feel natural here, Elphie felt... well- bored.

Elphaba's POV
I know it's selfish, and I know I should just stay here, but I can't. It's been perhaps a year and all I can think of , still, is what beautiful Glinda would do in each situation.

Oh no! The tap's broken!
...Glinda could fix it

Ah, I'm so hormonal
...Glinda knows how I feel, she could help

I'm so... bored
G L I N D A COULD CHEER ME UP

B E
Q U I E T

It's gotten to the point where it's low-key annoying. I need her, her smile, her golden ringlets and her ocean blue eyes.
I just need
Her

But to be honest I'm not sure what I could even do about it? She's gone. And so am I. She must've forgotten about me anyway. She has so much and I could never come back... AFTER pretending to be dead. That would just be so cruel. It's ridiculous.

But I can't just live out my time like this! I'm-

"ELLE CAN YOU COME HERE?!?"
Well then. As I walk towards Fiyero, I begin to feel really faint, and my gaze starts to blur.

"Elle..? Are you ok?" Fiyero says, slowly walking towards his girlfriend.

"Yeah, I'm um.. fine-"
Elphie never finished her sentence as she fell to the floor, her jet black hair splayed out around her.

Fiyero worked quickly. He ran over to the Green Girl and cradled her carefully, shaking her to wake her up.
"Elle?? Elphaba?! Honey??! ELPHABA THROPP?!!!??" He screamed getting louder and louder before giving up, she's out cold.

He knew it was dangerous to call a doctor, but he had to do it. She could be dying.
So he called a doctor

And got driven to the hospital

Fiyero s POV
No one did realise that she was green, thank god. They both looked like normal people. Elphaba has cast a spell so everyone they were not closely acquainted to, saw them as normal. So, everyone but each other basically.

I waited outside her room, scared out of my life. What was happening to my little Elle? She couldn't have gotten ill, so what could have-

"Ok Mr Tigelaar, your partner is waiting for you. Do you have any other family members? We have the problem and if there's anyone else they might want to hear?" The doctor said to me. Haha, anyone else. That's ridiculous.

"No, sorry! Just us today!" I said back in the most cheerful voice I could muster. So I got up and walked over to Elle's room. She sat upright on her bed.

"Oh my gosh I'm so glad you're ok!!" I said quietly to her. I hugged her tightly then sat down next to her holding her hand waiting for the doctor to speak.

"Don't look too nervous, it isn't as bad as you may think! Miss Thropp, you..."
