Friends Make You Stronger
A/N Thank you for the reviews!
I got the inspiration from the song If Only from the Little Mermaid and it made me think of Harold because he's only thinking of himself by sending Fiona away to the dragon guarded tower but basically he's only saving his own skin and being a baka but I hope you like this chapter.
Harold sighed as he tossed and turned that night in bed.
He had a feeling it was to do with sending Fiona away to the dragon guarded tower but he knew that it wasn't for his daughter's good.
But for his own good.
His eyes opened full of sadness mixed with fear as he got out of bed.
He walked onto the balcony looking at the stars in the night sky looking for help.
"Maybe it's not too late to change your mind Harold.
You care about Fiona, right?" his heart said.
Harold knew it was true but he couldn't stand up to the Fairy Godmother and tell her he wasn't sending Fiona away but would he really give up being a human and return to being a frog just so Fiona could be happy?
He sighed as he knew it would be a long night........
Later that night Snow noticed that Fiona was still awake.
She had a feeling her friend was thinking about what she and her parents had been talking about while she had been with Hinata and their other friends as she saw the ogress sit up looking out the window looking at the stars in the night sky.
They always seemed to entice her especially when she couldn't sleep.
"Fiona?
Is everything okay?
You seem sad.
Is it about what you and your parents were talking about?" the ebony haired princess asked.
Fiona nodded.
"Mmm-hmm Snow.
It was.
It's........ just I'm a little scared." she answered.
Snow had a feeling she wasn't good opening up her feelings but was waiting patiently for her friend to go on.
"I'm afraid that when I leave, I'll never see you or my other friends ever again.
You see my father said I couldn't come home until my curse was gone forever and it could take a long, long time which means you and our other friends will grow up and forget about our friendship and everything that changed for the better because we became friends.
But I have this feeling my father isn't doing this for me but for him.
Sometimes I think he's hiding something from me and my mother but I can't figure it out but everytime he sees frogs, he gets all annoyed but afraid like they know him.
But I'm not so sure Snow." she confessed as she looked at the night sky from her balcony with Snow by her side.
A silence filled the two of them for a few minutes.
"We would never forget you Fiona." Snow said breaking the silence.
"Y-You won't?" Fiona replied surprised.
"Nope.
You're something special, always speaking her mind, loyal and willing to help but accept others and that's what makes you better than the average princesses in the kingdom.
We would never forget somebody like you.
Never forget that." the ebony haired princess told her.
"Thanks Snow." Fiona replied hugging Snow.
Harold then walked into Fiona's room but heard laughter coming from the balcony.
As he peeked from the door that opened onto the balcony, he saw Fiona and Snow together.
But he noticed something different about Fiona when she was with Snow.
She was laughing, being happy and carefree like any normal girl her age.
Sometimes he knew that she'd always been alone and bearing the weight of the kingdom on her young shoulders including what he thought of her because of her curse but sighed watching them so happy together.
Sometimes he felt guilty for being so cold towards his own daughter because of something she couldn't control.
But he knew he had to leave before Fiona came back in and saw him there.
He hoped she would forgive him one day when she was older but doubted it as he returned to his and Lillian's room but fell asleep dreaming of what it could've been like if he did change.......
