I Think I've Got You Beat
A/N Here's the next one. It's about Fiona going to the spa for the weekend but Shrek has trouble looking after the triplets. I got the idea from the simpsons.
Artie wondered where Fiona was going as she packed a suitcase.
"I'm going away for the weekend.
To a remote spa.
Shrek's looking after the kids.
I hope he's okay.
They can be a handful." She replied to him.
There was a smirk on Artie's face.
"I can imagine what'll happen this weekend with him looking after the triplets." He thought.
Shrek dreaded the impending weekend.
He knew that the triplets would run wild without Fiona around.
"I'm doomed." he told Fiona that night in bed.
"Aw honey don't say that.
The kids are normal as long as they don't have sugar.
That's sort of why Donkey and Puss aren't baby sitting this weekend.
Not after last time." she replied stroking his arm.
"Don't worry they'll behave." she reassured him.
"I hope so.
I'm not good with kids, okay?
Besides they'll probably going to be crying because you're not here.
I'd better wear ear plugs this weekend." he told her.
"Don't worry you'll do fine.
You did great when they were babies.
I'm sure you can handle it." she said to him.
The next morning came and it was Saturday.
Shrek shivered as he remembered Fiona wasn't here to help control the kids.
"Morning Daddy.
Where's Mommy?" Spam asked him walking into the kitchen.
"Yeah where's Mommy?" Meatballs and Felicia asked him.
"S-She went on a vacation this weekend but she'll be back before school starts." Shrek answered them.
"Why didn't Mommy take us with her?" Meatballs asked him.
"It's just a place for Moms not kids.
Besides you'd be bored if you went." Shrek answered as he made pancakes.
"This is going to be one long weekend.
I hope nothing bad happens." he thought as he saw Spam running around while Meatballs chased him butt naked.
"What did Mommy and I tell you about keeping your pyjamas on?
I don't think the world wants to see your birthday suit." Shrek told Meatballs.
" You can't stop me!" he replied running around as Shrek sighed.
Later that afternoon they were at the park.
Shrek hoped it would tire them out but Meatballs had taken his father's skate board.
"Hey Spam watch me!
The Ogre Rocket is gonna go down this hill and into the village without safety pads.
What do you think?" Meatballs asked his brother.
"Umm... Meatballs?
I don't think it's a good idea.
You might get hurt.
Daddy would be angry and Mommy would be upset when she comes home." Spam replied to him.
"Whatever.
It's time." Meatballs said getting on the board.
"Woo-hoo!" he yelled as he sped down the hill like a speeding bullet.
Shrek was awoken by the sound of skate board wheels.
" Oh no!
I had a feeling he'd try my skate board out.
Plus he's been watching Viva La Bam again.
I've got to stop him before he gets hurt!" he thought catching Meatballs before he hit the road.
"Hey!
What's the big idea?" he said angrily.
"The big idea is making sure you don't get hurt.
It would upset me." he told him.
"Okay Daddy.
I'm sorry." he replied to him.
"I know but you're not ready to skate board yet." Shrek said as they went back to the swamp.
Puss dropped by as Shrek was ordering Chinese.
The triplets hugged him.
They no longer pulled him now that they realised he wasn't a toy.
"Where's your mother?" he asked them.
"She went on holiday for the weekend so Daddy's looking after us." Spam told him.
A smile crossed the feline's face.
"The boss looks tired.
I don't blame him.
They are a handful especially after Donkey giving them candy.
Maybe I should stay and help." he thought.
Snowgre was packing his stuff.
He was going with Artie for the weekend.
Later that night the triplets were in bed asleep but Shrek was asleep in the alligator chair.
The next day passed without much trouble apart from the triplets having a paint fight.
Later that night Fiona returned home relaxed and renewed.
"Thanks honey.
How was your weekend?" she said to him.
"Don't ask." he answered...
What a crazy weekend!
It's a good thing Fiona came back on Sunday night.
