Promise
A/N Here's more. Oh yeah Fiona kisses his hand but the spell isn't on her yet. I hope others like this.
It was dawn as the kingdom of Duloc woke up ready to start a new day. In a forest unaware both young Shrek and Fiona were still asleep with their arms around each other.
The sunlight hurt the young princess's eyes as she woke up. She realised she had to go home bewfore her parents and her governess woke up and realised she was missing. She couldn't leave Shrek, not right now.
But she had to tell him.
"What's wrong Fiona?" he asked her softly.
"I've got to go or my parents will be worried and search for me but if they do, they'll hurt you and I don't want to see you hurt." she answered him softly looking into his hazel eyes.
".... But you'll come back later, right?" the ogre boy asked nervous.
"Yes I'll come back, okay?" she replied as she kissed his hand before leaving him.
He blushed at that and saw her leave the way she'd came.
"T-That's the first time somebody besides my Mom did that.
She cares about me." he thought as he looked at the blue sky above.
King Harold was confused as he opened his daughter's door and found Fiona asleep in a night dress on her bed still asleep. He wondered what his daughter was doing still asleep. But he had a feeling she'd snuck out again but wasn't too mad.
"At least she didn't meet anybody who would hate the kingdom. She seems happy in sleep.
I wonder why?" he thought as he closed his child's door softly. He knew that Fiona liked to leave the castle and explore the forest when he and his wife Queen Lillian were asleep along with her governess. He knew she was lonely and craved friends but that's what happens when your parents are the rulers of a kingdom. Lillian saw him join her in the dining room.
She was drinking tea and eating breakfast as usual.
"Good morning dear.
Is Fiona okay?" she asked him softly.
"Yes she's fine. She's asleep in her room. She must've snuck out again. Oh well at least she's safe and sound but she seems happy. I don't know what caused it. " he answered her. Lillian had a feeling her young daughter had met somebody in the forest and befriended whoever it was. She smiled seeing Fiona asleep as she checked on her.
Fiona didn't wake up until later whenever she snuck out to be in the forest. She hoped her daughter would stay happy for a bit longer.
Shrek smiled hiding in the oak tree. It was something he always did because people were in the forest or picking fruit and flowers. He then heard something. It was the foot steps of hunters. That scared him but hiding here made him safe from the hunters. He hoped Fiona would come soon. For some reason thinking of her made him feel better.
"Maybe she'll be here later.
I know it." he told himself.
"Do you see anything?" a hunter asked.
"No I don't.
Whatever it was, it must've been gone by now." the other one replied as they moved on.
Shrek trembled in fear after they left.
"Dad is right. Hunters are monsters especially with their pitch forks. Maybe Fiona can help stop them since she is a princess, right?
I hope so." he told himself as he heard somebody calling.
"Shrek?
Where're you?" it called. The young ogre smiled with delight.
It was her.
"I'm coming Fiona!" he replied coming out of his hiding place as he found her in the middle of mud. He smiled. He loved nothing better than playing in the mud. He then saw her throw mud at him. Suddenly it hit him in the face and he gave her a look.
"I-I'm sorry Shrek I didn't mean it." she told him but she saw an evil smile on his face as he threw more at her.
"Hey!" she said laughing at the game. Harold saw the two playing happily and gasped in awe but also shock. He felt strongly against his daughter playing with their kind but Fiona didn't have that prejudice yet.
He then saw the look in Fiona's eyes as they played. That ogre boy was the reason Fiona was happy recently as they kept on.
"Maybe not all of them are bad.
Besides this one is just a child. What harm can he do?" he thought leaving them alone. But somebody else was watching. It was a witch in a hooded cloak. She'd been banished by Fiona's father and had revenge in her heart but smiled seeing Fiona with an ogre boy.
"Hmm..... this is perfect! I can use her as my instrument for revenge." she cackled as she watched them play. Fiona saw worry in Shrek's hazel eyes and wondered what was wrong.
He pointed to an old woman. He could tell there was something about her he didn't like.
"What's wrong?" Fiona asked him sensing his concern.
"By night one way, by day another
This shall be the norm
Until you find True Love's First Kiss
And then take Love's True Form." the witch said as the magic hit the young princess. Shrek was worried as the woman vanished into thin air. He wondered what happened to Fiona.
"I'm fine Shrek.
Trust me." she told him reassuring him. Shrek calmed down as they continued playing but Fiona felt strange as they kept playing.
"What did that spell do to me?" she thought as they were having fun but soon it would make sense....
