Hey guys! It's NCMS here, with another story! I got this idea while working on a project for school while watching Shrek 4...weird ways to get ideas...and I really wanted to write this. Ok, this is more of a fairy taleish instead of my usual drama/oh my god stories. I want this story to be full of love and humor, with fluff. To summarize it, a romantic comedy, with a side of fairytale. Anyways, enjoy!

Eli's POV

My love, perfectly represented like this:

It was many and many a year ago,

In a kingdom by the sea,

That a maiden there lived whom you may know

By the name of Clare Edwards;

And this maiden she lived with no other thought

Than to love and be loved by me.

I was a child and she was a child,

In this kingdom by the sea;

But we loved with a love that was more than love-

I and my Clare Edwards;

With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven

Coveted her and me.

And this was the reason that, long ago,

In this kingdom by the sea,

A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling

My beautiful Clare Edwards;

So that her highborn kinsman came

And bore her away from me,

To shut her up in a sepulcher

In this kingdom by the sea.

The angels, not half so happy in heaven,

Went envying her and me-

Yes!- that was the reason (as all men know,

In this kingdom by the sea)

That the wind came out of the cloud by night,

Chilling and killing my Clare Edwards.

But our love it was stronger by far than the love

Of those who were older than we-

Of many far wiser than we-

And neither the angels in heaven above,

Nor the demons down under the sea,

Can ever dissever my soul from the soul

Of the beautiful Clare Edwards.

For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams

Of the beautiful Clare Edwards;

And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes

Of the beautiful Clare Edwards;

And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side

Of my darling- my darling- my life and my bride,

In the sepulcher there by the sea,

In her tomb by the sounding sea.

Ok so maybe that poem's not entirely true. I'm Elijah Goldsworthy, one of the demons who lives in Far, Far Away. Cheesy name, huh? People fear me, no, I'm not Shrek. It may seem like it. Shrek's just a story that parents use to get their kids to get to bed. Clare is the daughter of Queen Helen and King Randal. Though divorced, the two rule the kingdom together. Then there's Prince Jake, and his father Glen, how's known as a 'Fairy God Father' stupid right? How Clare and I fell in love?

It was many and many a year ago

In a kingdom by the sea…

You may have heard of the poem, "Annabel Lee" by Edgar Allan Poe. I replaced Annabel Lee to Clare Edwards, and there's going to be more. Just some drabble and intro. I'll post the second chapter either tomorrow or Monday, review please! Free cookies for reviewers! -NCMSBear
