Chapter 1- Lee won't say she's in love

Weeks passed since the fairytale creatures landed on the swamp that belonged to an ogre named Shrek. They thought he would help him but he didn't. So they left and decided to stop for the night. Lee leaned against the tree and smiled as she saw Pinocchio gathering wood. He was so strong. Lee thought, "He's strong, he's brave, he's handsome, what else could you look for in…..No. NO! I am not in love! I can't be!"

~flashback to the first day they met~

The guard blew a whistle real loud and we separated into two separate groups. "WHEN I CALL YOU'RE NAME STEP FORWARD! PINOCCHIO THE PUPPET!" yelled the guard.

He walked forward and whined, "IM NOT A PUPPET, IM A REAL BOY"

Next thing I knew his nose grew. She leaned backed and freaked out knowing that can happen. Pinocchio saw the look on lee's face and frowned with disappointment.

~end flashback~

Lee quietly started to sing.

If there's a prize for rotten judgement
I guess I've already won that
No man is worth the aggravation
That ancient history,
Been there done that

Three blind mice appeared and sang

Who'd'ya think you're kiddin'
He's the Earth and heaven to you
Try to keep it hidden
Honey, we can see right through you
Girl, ya can't conceal it
We know how ya feel and
Who you're thinking of

Lee sighed and sang in regret

No chance, no way
I won't say it, no, no

The mice sang again

You swoon, you sigh
why deny it, uh-oh

Lee sang as she crossed her arms and looked away

It's too cliche
I won't say I'm in love

Lee looked at Pinocchio and thought of his first boyfriend. A giant who was a jerk

I thought my heart had learned its lesson
It feels so good when you start out
My head is screaming get a grip, girl
Unless you're dying to cry your heart out
Oh

One of the mice put a hand on her shoulder and sang

You keep on denying
Who you are and how you're feeling
Baby, we're not buying
Hon, we saw ya hit the ceiling
Face it like a grown-up
When ya gonna own up
That ya got, got, got it bad

Lee looked away and sang

No chance, no way
I won't say it, no, no

The other mouse sang

Give up, but give in
Check the grin you're in love

Lee, stressed out as they pushed her towards him, sang

This scene won't play,
I won't say I'm in love. You're way off base
I won't say it. Get off my case I won't say it!

The mice slowly disappeared as they sang

Girl, don't be proud
It's okay you're in love

Pinocchio walked up to lee and smiled. "hey lee. Ready to go to sleep?" he asked. "Yeah, totally, I just think I'm going to wait a bit" said lee as she saw him looking at her so kindly. He nodded and walked away. She sighed dreamily and her heart sped up. Quietly she sang…..

"At least out loud,
I won't say I'm in love"
