Summary
It keeps her up at night, wondering whether Elphie felt the same— like something else, after university, after all of the hurt she’d endured, could exist, and if she picked Fiyero to have that with, and not Glinda. It keeps her up at night because she misses him too, how he held her; it was nice to be held. She misses everything, and she knows she can never get any of it back. Everybody who knew her, really knew her, is gone.
Or so she thought.
(Or, Glinda (and Elphaba) after canon. Another fix-it.)

Summary
Greta Gill has always been laser-focused on her career, rising through the ranks to become one of the youngest CEOs in her city. Despite her success, she's often left feeling isolated, uncertain if anyone truly knows her beyond her public persona. When she meets Carson Shaw at a bar, she's taken by the brunette's unapologetic determination and vulnerability, a far cry from the business circles Greta knows too well. Carson, still searching for her place in the world, is captivated by Greta’s confidence and the mystery behind her polished exterior.
As their worlds collide, Carson becomes Greta's source of unexpected warmth and trust, a break from her demanding life. Yet, insecurities run deep on both sides. Carson wonders if Greta’s feelings are real or a brief reprieve from her high-stakes world, while Greta fears losing Carson if she can't reconcile her career with the needs of a relationship. Through moments of longing and misunderstandings, they’ll need to answer the question: Is their love strong enough to transcend their insecurities?
