Feels Like Friendship
A/N Hey this will probably be the last chapter but don't worry there's more coming very soon. Also somebody returns after being away for so long. We also find out what Artie and Marissa call their child.
Lilian watched as Artie and the others were working on the baby's room. The walls had been painted purple and Lillian had put the crib that used to be Fiona's in the room.
Shrek saw a sad smile on her face as they finished later.
"You're missing Dad, aren't you?" he asked gently. He knew how sad Lillian got thinking about Harold.
She nodded sadly.
"I just wish he was here to see Artie and Marissa's child and to be a part of the family." she answered him.
Fiona was returning to the castle with Marissa and the others. The baby was fascinated with Fiona's braid.
Marissa laughed at that as they arrived at the castle. Marissa gulped nervous as they entered making sure none of the citizens saw the baby.
Artie hugged her as they arrived and carrying his and her child into the room he and the others had made for the baby.
They were in awe.
"It's beauitful! Thank you for doing this everybody." Marissa told them.
"It was our pleasure." Shrek answered getting paint off his vest from the paint fight the triplets had while painiting the room.
But then the baby's eyes glowed with blue light like Marissa's did when she used her magic. Suddenly Artie along with Lillian and Fiona gasped as somebody appeared.
"Lillian, Fiona is that you?" he asked them.
"Yes it is us. We're so happy you're back!" Lillian told him hugging him.
It was Harold but he was in human form instead of being a frog.
"Marissa and Artie's child must've magical gifts. I'm not surprised seeing as Marissa is Merlin's daughter." Shrek thought.
"Who's this cute baby?" Harold asked.
"She's ours." Artie answered as he pointed to Marissa. Harold gasped at that in shock.
"A lot's happened since I left, hasn't it?" he asked.
Shrek nodded.
"We're just so glad you're back Dad." Fiona said hugging him with tears running down her face.
He understood how she felt because they hadn't been together since he left them.
"I know." he said softly as they broke the embrace.
Later Artie lay with Marissa in bed. He was thinking about what had happened today. He was not expecting his newborn daughter to have magic like her mother or his uncle coming back.
"I was thinking of names for the baby.
What do you think we should call her?" Marrisa said to him.
Artie was thinking lying there with his arms around her waist.
"I was thinking of the name Leahana or Leah for short." Artie suggested.
"Artie that's perfect.
Leah it is.
We should show her to the kingdom. They should know about their future heir." Marissa said as they kissed.
Harold smiled seeing Lillian wrap her arms around him tightly and understood.
He hoped that he would never leave her or the family again.....
