Loathing

~3rd Person POV~

Elphobus walked into the living quarters and looked around for the room he would be staying in. As he walked by, students leaned to get a better look at the green-skinned boy.

Galinda looked through the peephole of the door and squeaked before opening it and smiling at Elphobus. (Y/n) was by the balcony door, folding all of her fancy (F/c) themed clothes. Elphobus stared at the two before Galinda opened the door wider. "Come in."

Elphobus walked in and observed the room. The left side was covered with pink clothes and suitcases and the right side had (f/c) clothes and suitcases everywhere.

"The rest of my bags should be arriving shortly." (Y/n) stated as she continued to unpack, not turning to face her new roommate.

Elphobus couldn't look away from all the things the girls brought. "Do you really think this is fair?" He questioned.

Galinda quickly stood in front of him. "I do not, as we were promised a private suite. But thanks for asking." She gestured to herself and her sister.

Elphobus stared at the open balcony door and took a step around Galinda, making her yelp and flinch away, resulting in Elphobus and (Y/n) also flinching.

"Wait!"

"What?"

"What is it?"

Elphobus gestured to the door. "I was just gonna... close the door."

(Y/n) swallowed her smart remarks and stepped onto the balcony. "Oh, do you mind leaving it open? We so enjoy... air." Wind magically appeared and blew through her hair.

Elphobus just stared at her.

(Y/n) walked back in and smiled the best she could. "We saved you some space, by the way." She walked into a corner of her room and pulled back a mix of hers and Galinda's clothes, revealing a nook with a bed. Elphobus walked over and stared at her before leaning in to stare at the minimal amount of space he had.

Elphobus did not look pleased as he looked back at (Y/n).

Galinda leaned in beside her sister. "It's great." She whispered.

Elphobus walked through the clothes and sat on his bed. "It was nothing. Roommates do these things for each other." Galinda explained. "So we've been told." (Y/n) added.

Elphobus pulled down the sheets that covered the windows and coughed at the dust surrounding him. Galinda took this chance to offer a deal. "And in return, perhaps you could-- let's see-- put in a good word for us? With Madame Morrible? Deal?"

Elphobus ignored her and started grabbing pink and (F/c) suitcases and moved them away from his space. (Y/n) took a step towards him. "That was you down there. Who made all that happen."

Elphobus grabbed a handful of (f/c) clothes and moved them onto (Y/n)'s bed. "You heard Madame Morrible." He said dismissively. He grabbed one of (Y/n)'s suitcases and closed it before (Y/n) quickly placed her hands on the other side of the suitcase to stop him. "How did you do it?" The (h/c) questioned.

Elphobus yanked the suitcase away, but (Y/n) wasn't having it. "We can keep a secret." Elphobus glared at her and shoved the suitcase out of the way.

(Y/n) huffed. "Fine. Be that way. I asked politely." Elphobus put more things away. (Y/n) followed after him and gestured to the drawers. "My sister even saved you a drawer--"

Elphobus snapped and turned around. "I don't know! I've never known!"

The door slammed shut and one of the doors cracked and broke from the force.

(Y/n) and Galinda jumped in surprise at the noise before snapping their heads back to the boy in unison.

Elphobus bit his cheek and regained his composure. He looked at the broken door before smiling at (Y/n). "There. Enjoy the air." He brushed passed her and walked into his cubby.

(Y/n) stared at him before looking back at the broken door. How did he do that?


That night, Galinda sat on her bed in one corner of the room, (Y/n) laid on her stomach in her corner of the room, and Elphobus sat in his cubby. Galinda had a pink nightgown, Elphobus wore a white loose nightshirt with matching pants, and (Y/n) had a (f/c) robe covering her night clothes.

"Dearest darlingest Momsie and Popsical..." Galinda wrote.

"Dear Mama and Papa..." (Y/n) wrote.

"My dear father... Thank you for agreeing to let me stay." Elphobus wrote.

"Guess what?" Galinda muttered.

"You won't believe who I'm dealing with..." (Y/n) whispered.

"In regards to your request that I move in with Nessa--"

"I can't hear your guesses because this is a letter." Galinda chuckled.

"Really. You won't believe it." (Y/n) added.

"I know she wouldn't want me to--" Elphobus crossed that out. "I know how much she wants to be--" He crossed that out too.

"So I'll just tell you," Galinda stated.

Everyone paused what they were writing.

"There's been some confusion over rooming here at Shiz..." They all wrote in sync.

"But of course, I'll care for Nessa," Elphobus mumbled.

"But of course--" (Y/n) started.

"We'll rise above it!" Galinda lifted her pen in the air.

"For I know that's how you'd want me to respond, yes... There's been some confusion for, you see, my roommate is..."

Galinda wasn't sure what to write. (Y/n) threw words onto the paper that came to mind. "Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe..." She looked over at Elphobus as he looked up.

"Blonde." He summed up. "And... ambitious."

Everyone placed their notebooks down and Elphobus placed his green elixir under his pillow. Everyone turned off their lights to go to sleep, but (Y/n) couldn't seem to. She rolled over and turned her bright (F/c) light on, disturbing Elphobus.

(Y/n) laid on her back as Elphobus lay on his side. "What is this feeling, so sudden, and new?" (Y/n) muttered.

She moved to her side and Elphobus laid on his back. "I felt the moment I laid eyes on you," Elphobus stated.

They switched again. "My pulse is rushing..." (Y/n) felt her neck.

Elphobus felt his head. "My head is reeling.."

(Y/n) glared at him. "Yeah, well--- My face is flushing!"

"What is this feeling?"

They both got up and put on their robes as Galinda sat up with confusion at all the noise.

"Fervid as a flame, does it have a name?"

The (H/c) and green-skinned boy glared at each other. "Yes.."

They stomped to each other, stopping a few inches away. "Loathing!"

"Unadulterated loathing."

She pointed a finger in his face. "For your face."

Elphobus moved her hand down. "Your voice."

"Your clothing!" (Y/n) quickly shot back.

"Let's just say... I loathe it all."

Elphobus moved over and yanked (Y/n)'s (f/c) lamp out of the wall and the girl gasped, angrily chasing after him.

"Every little trait, however small. Makes my very flesh begin to crawl."

Elphobus knocked a suitcase of (Y/n)'s over and she grew angrier.

"With simple, utter loathing. There's a strange exhilaration."

That morning, Elphobus woke up and his eyes widened at his cubby being covered from floor-to-ceiling with (f/c) clothes and suitcases.

"In such total detestation. It's so pure, so strong."

Elphobus stomped out of his cubby with a (f/c) parasol in hand, glaring at a smug (Y/n) as she turned off her lamp.

Elphobus angrily threw the parasol on the ground.


"Though I do admit, it came on fast. Still, I do believe that it can last."

(Y/n), Galinda, ShenShen, and Pfannee returned to the sisters' dorms later in the day and her eyes widened at hers and Galinda's belongings being piled up in one corner of the room. (Y/n) glared at the man on the balcony and shoved her books into Pfanne's hold, stomping over to the balcony.

Elphobus stood up and smirked at the angry (h/c) before brushing passed her.

"And I will be loathing. Loathing you my whole life long."

As Elphobus walked by, he flicked his hand in Pfannee's direction, causing the boy to flinch and lose his glasses.


Down in the quad, (Y/n) and Galinda were walking to the lunchroom with a group of students walking with them in sync.

"Dear Galinda, you are just too good."

"(Y/n), How do you stand it? I don't think I could."

(Y/n) smiled with a small 'oh..' and hit her books along with everyone else.

"He's a terror, he's a Tartar, we don't mean to show a bias."

The sisters ran ahead of the crowd.

"But you two, you're a martyr."

(Y/n) and Galinda stood in front of the lunchroom's door and the light made the door seem like a halo.

"Well, these things are sent to try us." The two harmonized and the crowd 'awed' at their kindness as the sisters smiled.

The lunchroom door opened the sisters immediately noticed the green boy. Everyone in the lunchroom snapped their heads to the girls before looking over at Elphobus. "Poor good sisters, forced to reside with someone so disgusticified."

The two made it to a table and (Y/n) plopped her books on the surface before sitting.

Elphobus looked around at all the dancing and singing students.

"We just want to tell you, we're all on your side!"

"We share your--"

"Loathing!"

"What is this feeling, so sudden and new?" (Y/n) and Elphobus sang in unison.

"Unadulterated loathing!"

"I felt the moment I laid eyes on you!" (Y/n) smiled as she cut her food.

"For his face, his voice, his clothing!"

"My pulse is rushing, my head is reeling." The two made eye contact and (Y/n) dropped her knife to feel her neck.

"let's just say we loathe it all!"

"Oh, what is this feeling?" Elphobus and (Y/n) harmonized.


In a classroom, (Y/n) and Elphobus stopped at the entrance and noticed only one desk was available. The two made eye contact before rushing to the desk.

"Every little trait, however small."

The two had a tug-of-war for the desk until another student sat in it. The roommates only glared at each other.

"Does it have a name? Yes..."


"Loathing."

Another class was sports and (Y/n) and Elphobus were unfortunately partners. (Y/n) wore a (f/c) fancy workout outfit and Elphobus donned a blue and black outfit. They bowed before fighting with school-given poles.

"There's a strange exhilaration." They sang as they fought.


Back in the classroom, they continued to glare and circle each other with other students dancing around their desks. "In such total detestation!"


They continued to fight in sports class. "It's so pure, so strong."


In the cafeteria, the sisters sat on one side of the table, and Elphobus sat on the other side of the table. "Though I do admit, it came on fast." They glared as Elphobus opened his napkin and (Y/n) cut her food.





They still fought for a desk before (Y/n)'s back pushed Elphobus off of it. "Still, I do believe that it can last." Elphobus was baffled.


The entire student body danced in the quad as Galinda and (Y/n) walked through the courtyard. "And I will be loathing. For forever, loathing."

They sidestepped into the middle of the quad. "Truly deeply, loathing--" (Y/n) paused and stopped her sister at the sight on the balcony. Elphobus was talking with Madame Morrible and hugged her with excitement. "You..."

(Y/n)'s jaw clenched.

"My whole life long..."

The sisters rushed back to their dorm.


In the sports class, Elphobus used his pole to throw the girl off her feet.


Elphobus raised a cup to the siblings and they awkwardly did the same.


Galinda moved to her bed and (Y/n) stayed by the door, sighing to herself at what she saw. The door opened and Elphobus poked his head into the room. "Boo!"

(Y/n) screamed at the sudden voice.

Elphobus laughed and shut the door before the two moved to opposite sides of the room.
