Ch 3
Snow was lying in the snow making snow angels. Fiona and her family had gone Christmas shopping. She didn't mind. Lai then stopped his steed as he came to the castle. His heart was pounding faster when he saw Snow lying in the snow like that.
"Wow she's more awesome than Charming told me! I'd better tell her about myself. I hope she likes me." He thought as he approached her. "Hi I'm Lai. I don't know who you are but I think you're amazing." He told her. Snow shivered at that. Nobody had ever said that to her. "You really mean it?" she asked him. "Yes I do." He replied. "I'm Snow White. I've… never met a guy like you before." She said smiling. Her heart was beating fast too.
Artie was worried about this. "Something isn't right. This guy shows up and claims to like Snow. I'd better tell Fiona when she comes back. I'd better keep an eye on them." He thought as he went back inside. Snow led Lai inside to get warm. He was feeling weird but good weird. Fiona then came back and noticed Artie was ticked. "What's wrong that you're so mad?" she asked him. "Your girl friend is hanging out with a prince named Lai." he told her. She then followed him into the living room where Snow and Lai were drinking hot chocolate and eating cookies. Fiona was mad when Lai wrapped his arms around her. "Ah! Ogre!" Lai said running off.
"Oh you'd better run because if I find you here again, you're so dead, not even Rapunzel would find you hot!" Fiona yelled as Lai ran off. Shrek smiled at her. He could tell she was jealous of Lai. "It's okay to be jealous especially when a hot guy is digging on your girl friend. But Snow seems really happy with Lai." he said to her. "You're right. I'll talk to Snow later." she replied. Snow saw Fiona sitting in the dining room and decided to talk to her about Lai.
"I know you were a little upset about me with Lai but we'll always be in Love. It's... just I've never had a prince to call my own before and Lai and I like each other and have lots in common. You understand right?" she told Fiona hugging her. "Sure. I understand. Go be with him." she said but Snow didn't notice the depression in her voice as she ran off to find Lai. Shrek heard Fiona crying and felt sorry for her. "Mommy sad?" the triplets asked him. "Yes guys. Mommy very sad. Let's give her some alone time." he told them as they went outside.
Snow couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong with Fiona but dismissed it. "She said she was fine with it, right?" she thought as she found Lai resting by a tree. "Hey I'm sorry about Fiona. She was just... a little jealous. It won't happen again." she said to him. "I know she is just like my brother is with her. Let's kiss." he told her leaning in to kiss her but she hesitated. Something about this wasn't kosher. "Don't you want your Happily Ever After?" he asked her. Her eyes went wide at his voice. "You're Charming's brother! I'm sorry but I... don't think this will work. I can't love the brother of a prince who wears leotards and tries to hurt my friends." she told him heading back to the castle. She found Shrek waiting for her when she got back.
"Where's Fiona? I... need to talk to her." she asked him. "She's in bed asleep. She was tired after crying herself to sleep because of you! She's emotionally hurt and I'm worried. I know you guys are in Love but what you did eariler hurt her badly." he replied. Snow sighed as she climbed the stairs and entered Fiona's room. Fiona was asleep in bed in a night gown. Red rims were around her eyes from crying too much. "Hey Fi... Look I'm sorry what I did upset you but you were right about Lai. He's Charming's vrother. Please talk to me." she whispered. She was about to leave when a hand grabbed hers.
"Don't leave... I forgive you." she heard Fiona say. Snow then climbed into bed beside and wrapped her arms around her. "Thanks. I don't wanna do anything that'll upset you again. What we have is too special to destroy." she said as she kissed Fiona on the cheek...
