Author's Note: I don't own anything except Shannie is an oc.
A day had gone by and Louis had not returned. Shannie was worried about him and had no sleep that night. Naveen and Tiana spent most of the night looking for him, but they didn't succeed.
There was a knock on Shannie's door and she ran to open it and she came face to face with Tiana. "Oh Tiana," cried Shannie, "I wonder where he is."
"Well we searched most of the night, and we didn't find him. This is so unlike him to do this."
Shannie didn't say a word as she paced around the room and thought hard about what she was going to do. "I'll go look for awhile," Shannie announced as she put on her gray coat and walked out the door.
Shannie walked through the front door and to the outside world. She had no idea where to look, so she went wherever there was water. To Shannie, appearances didn't matter. She had to tell Louis. Shannie spent hours and hours calling for Louis and no sign of him.
She came across a river and saw a bunch of alligators gathering together and she thought they might know Louis. "Excuse me, but do any of you know Louis?" Shannie asked.
All of the alligators turned to look at her and they all grinned revealing their sharp front teeth. "Why do you want to know?" one of them asked.
"He ran off last night when I was trying to talk to him."
"Alligators do not associate with humans. It goes against the rules."
The alligators swam towards her and Shannie felt scared as she began to back up. "I'm feeling hungry."
"Let's eat her."
Shannie began to run away and she was screaming on top of her lungs. This wasn't supposed to happen. She was nearly out of breath and the alligators were catching up. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a tree fell on top of the alligators that were pursing Shannie. They all yelped in pain and ran in the opposite direction. Shannie went to walk towards the tree and gasped when she saw Louis with a chainsaw. "Louis!" she cried as she went to hug him.
He wrapped his scaly arms around her and held on tightly. Louis's heart was pounding and he felt nervous inside. "Why did you run off like that last night?" Shannie demanded.
Louis nervously twisted his hands about and whispered, "I was scared."
"Scared of what?"
"I was scared that I would-"
"Would what?"
"Would lose you. Because of who I am. Because of what I am."
Shannie looked up at Louis and lovingly stroked his face and held onto him again. "Louis, you'll never lose me."
"But Shannie, I am an-"
"Louis, I love you, no matter what. Love is all that matters."
Louis was so happy that he had tears streaming down his face. The woman he loved would always love him no matter what shape or form he was in. That was true love.
Shannie offered Louis her hand and he took it with a huge smile on his face. She began to walk forward but Louis stayed in place as he twirled her around and announced, "I love you Shannie."
And then he kissed her.
