Elphaba was calmly sitting on her bed reading a book on animal rights, when Galinda ran into the room and collapsed onto the bed, her body shaking with sobs.

"Oh Lin what happened?" Elphaba asked.

"I knew it! I told you he would break up with me! I…" She couldn't continue she was crying too much.

Elphaba was about to comfort her when there was a knock on the door. Galinda seemed too caught up in her sadness to answer the door, so Elphaba got up and opened the door and unsurprisingly it was the Winkie Prince himself.

"Elphaba I…" Fiyero started.

"Save it Fiyero. She doesn't want to speak with you and neither do I!" Elphaba yelled and slammed the door in his face.

There was another knock but she ignored it and walked back to her friend's side to comfort her. Eventually the knocking stopped and Elphaba knew Fiyero had given up and went to his room.

What happens next? Elphaba thought.

The next morning came bright and sunny. Everyone was hurrying to their first classes of the day. The day passed and suddenly it was lunch time. Everyone sat around at the courtyard and started whispering as a very classy carriage pulled up to the school. Madame Morrible exited the building and ran to greet the school's newest student.

"Ah here she is, our newest student Miss…" Madame Morrible started.

"Laytin, Madame, Crystal Laytin." A voice from inside the carriage stated.

The door slowly opened and out stepped a small girl of about five feet. She wore a navy blue skirt that stopped just above her knees, and a white button up blouse underneath a matching navy blue blazer.

"Welcome to Shiz, Miss Laytin. I am sorry to say that all our rooms are full, so do you mind if you share a room with two other girls. Another bed will be added to the room of course."

"That is fine as long as I have as much space as the other two girls."

"Of course we will put you in our largest shared room, Miss Thropp, Miss Upland could you come here a second?" Madame Morrible called.

Elphaba and Galinda were walking towards their dormitory when they were called. They looked at each other and walked up to Madame Morrible and the new girl, who was currently getting her suitcases out of the carriage.

"Yes Madame?" Elphaba asked.

"Yes, I am asking if you would be so kind to allow Miss Laytin to stay in your room for the rest of the year."

"We might be able to squeeze her in." Elphaba said as she tightly grabbed onto Galinda's arm as if telling her not to say a thing.

"Thank you dearies, now I must be off. Miss Laytin I will leave you in their hopefully capable hands." Morrible said as she left.

"Well, roomies let's go!" Crystal said excitedly.

"Now, wait a second! I nev…" Galinda began. Elphaba, sensing trouble, grabbed Galinda's arm and dragged her to the side.

"Shut up, we have to welcome her, treat her well. I don't want her to have the same beginning as us."

"Oh Elphie, that's sweet but she's taking up space in our room! It's already cramped!"

"Oh don't be ridiculous! We have plenty of room. Now let's go show our newest roommate to our room."

She grabbed Galinda's arm and started walking. Galinda was obviously unhappy but didn't protest. When they arrived Crystal had already met Nessarose and started talking to her.

"Well Miss Laytin…" Elphaba began

"Just Crystal please, I feel weird being referred to as Miss anything."

"Right well Crystal we better get back to our room, so you can settle in."

"Right ok, Bye Nessa it was nice to meet you!" Crystal called as she walked away.

"Oh Fabala, don't screw this up!" Nessa said to herself as she rolled away.

"Well, this is our room!" Elphaba exclaimed as she moved her arm in a welcome gesture.

"Wow this is beautiful! I guess I'm taking that bed over there?" Crystal asked pointing toward a plain bed at the far end of the room.

"Yes, do you need help unpacking?" Elphaba said as Galinda walked to her own bed and sat down just watching the two of them.

"She doesn't like me very much, does she?" Crystal asked as she opened her suitcase and pulled out a dress that looked very expensive. Just then they heard a scream. Galinda was jumping up and down pointing at the dress.

"Oh. My. Oz! Is that an Angelo Vito piece?"

"Yes actually, he is a friend of my parents so he let me have some of his designs." Crystal said. Friend, Ha! More like personal designer. Only the best for their little princess, she thought.

"You have to let me borrow it sometime!" Galinda said as she started helping Crystal with unpacking. "If you dress like this you mustn't be all that bad! I think we will get along just fine!"

Elphaba laughed as she backed up and let the two girls talk about fashion while they pack.

Put two crazies in a room. They'll find each other, she thought.

The next day showed up bright and early. Crystal and Galinda were just finishing their outfits for the day when Elphaba stepped out of the bathroom in her usual frock.

"Um, no offense Elphaba but that frock is hideous." Crystal said after she looked at her.

"Elphie, she's right. Oh! Kris show her that pretty black dress you have. It might fit her!" Galinda exclaimed.

Crystal snapped her fingers and started digging through her closet as Elphaba turned towards Galinda.

"Kris?"

"Nickname, you know I always have to have them! I remember Fiye…" She trailed off as she remembered exactly what happened two days ago.

"I found it!" Crystal exclaimed as she pulled out a black spaghetti strap dress that went to about Elphaba's knees. "Well go try it on!"

"Yeah Elphie," Galinda said snapping out of her stupor, "Go try it on!"

Ten minutes later Elphaba stepped out of the bathroom in the dress.

"Oh Miss Elphaba, you look beautiful," Galinda said as she started wiping fake tears out of her eyes.

Elphaba laughed as she remembered that night a year ago. She was suddenly shaken out of her thoughts, as she was shoved into a chair.

"I have this awesome shade of purple that would look beautiful with your skin tone." Crystal exclaimed as she dug into her makeup bag.

Half an hour later three gorgeous girls stepped out of the girls dormitories, ready to get past whatever the day brings.
