High School Isn't Easy
Snowgre saw jocks teasing a blonde haired kid.
He was wearing a frilly shirt, slender and was dramatic.
"Hey leave him alone!
What did he do to you?" Artie said to them.
"He's a geek like your ogre friend.
He's a walking carpet." They sneered.
Shrek was in the lunch room cooking.
He was skilled at culinary stuff.
It helped the depression go away.
Snowgre knew he hurt because Fiona wasn't here.
"What're you cooking?" HE ASKED HIM.
"pasta, potatoes, veggies.
You're going to love the dessert.
It involves your favourite song." Shrek answered.
Snowgre got excited.
"You rock!" he replied to him.
Artie saw the blonde kid in Home room.
"Hey I'm Artie.
Who're you?" he asked him.
"Charming, Prince Charming.
My mother says good to mix with peers." He answered.
"Uh-huh.
You'd better keep that on the down low.
The others find out, they'll hate you." He told him.
Snowgre saw somebody enter the home room.
It was a female ogre like him.
She had white fur, light blue skin, brown eyes and was slender.
Artie laughed at that.
"So he's finally in love!
Maybe I should help him." He thought.
"W-Who're y-you?" Snowgre asked her.
"I'm Snowflake.
I started here today.
Who're you?" she said giggling.
"I-I'm S-snowgre." He told her.
"Nice to meet you.
We're the same.
Maybe you'd….. want to have lunch with me?" she told him.
"He'd love to." Artie said for his friend.
"Great." She told them as the bell rang.
"Artie I think I'm in love." Snowgre said to him.
He then saw Shrek putting things in his locker.
He saw sunflowers in there.
"I wonder who put them there?" Shrek thought.
"Snowgre maybe you shouldn't talk about Snowflake around Shrek.
It might make him upset." Artie told his artic ogre friend.
Shrek wondered what was wrong with Snowgre.
"Let's just say he found somebody like him." he asked Artie.
"Yeah he wants to be with this person at lunch." the prince told him.
"Oh I understand." Shrek said, his ears drooping sadly.
"I think he needs help with this." Artie thought as he walked to lunch.
He saw Snowgre with Snowflake.
He seemed happy.
But Artie was gone too.
He felt more alone than ever.
He then heard Fiona's voice.
"You're not alone
Our hearts are joined together.
That's why you can hear me even though I'm not with you.
The bracelet I gave you is enchanted." she told him.
Suddenly the lunch room faded and he found himself beside Fiona in her tower room.
"You came.
I'm.... sorry." she said touching his face gently.
"Sorry?
What did you do?" Shrek asked her.
"I left you.
Because of that, I hurt you in here." she said pointing to her heart.
"..... I-I forgive you.
You'll always be my Nakama." Shrek replied to her.
"That word, it's pretty.
What does it mean?" she asked softly.
"It means friend.
That's what I found in you and more." he told her.
He then heard something roar.
"What is that?" he asked.
"The.... dragon that guards me.
It destroys any intruders in here." she answered sadly.
Shrek saw sadness in her eyes.
He wanted to stay with her forever.
"Shrek.... just forget about me, okay?
Go be with another girl.
I don't want you to suffer because of me.
You haven't been yourself since I left." she told him.
He was about to answer when he heard somebody calling his name.....
"Shrek can you hear us?
Wake up!" Snowgre said shaking him awake.
Shrek's eyes opened slowly.
"He's awake!
Thank goodness!" Artie told him.
"You okay?
You look dizzy." Snowgre told him.
"I'm fine." Shrek said to him.
Snow sighed as she was in her dorm room.
She missed Fiona along with Doris, Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella.
"If it wasn't for Rapunzel, Fiona would still be here.
I miss her so..... much!
I never told her how I felt." she sobbed into a pillow.
Snowgre had gone out with Snowflake that night and Shrek was alone in his house.
Artie felt sorry for him.
He found him eating soup by an ear wax candle he'd made.
"Why be alone?" he asked him.
"Sometimes it's better to be alone especially when your heart is breaking into two.
You wouldn't understand." Shrek replied sadly.
"You freaked us out eariler when you were lying there on the floor.
We thought the worst.
What happened?" Artie replied.
"I was in her tower.
We were together for a few minutes but being with her was like heaven.
She's alone too, hurting like me.
I'm gonna find her toert snd free her myself!" Shrek said.
Artie was getting worried for him.
He felt like he couldn't leave him but had to.
That night Shrek lat awake seeing the wishing star.
"I won'r forget you.
I'm gonna find your tower and one day we'll be together.
That I promise." he thought drifting off......
