Friendship Is A Precious Gift

A/N Another Shrek the Musical fic, yay!

I had the idea today while listening to the cast recording on my computer as well as having thoughts about both Shrek the Musical and Wicked thoughts in my head today but this is about young Shrek and Fiona meeting and becoming friends.

I love this musical so much and plan to see it sometime because I love it.

But I wish Brian D Arcy James hadn't left the Broadway cast but hopefully he'll return.

I love writing Shrek the Musical fics where Shrek and Fiona are little kids.

I hope you like.

Fiona sighed as she was in her bedroom.

She was bored but wanted to get out of the castle.

She was seven years old with red bangs and a short braid but wore a kelly green dress.

She was lonely because she didn't have a lot of friends and her father and mother King Harold and Queen Lillian were too busy to spend time qith her but she remembered the ogre boy she'd seen quickly in the town square.

He looked so friendly but shy and alone but scared.

She'd wanted to talk to him but her parents pulled her away before she even got a chance but was curious as she decided to leave the castle for a while.

She hoped her parents wouldn't find out.

She was in the forest but heard somebody sigh as she approached them but gasped.

It was the ogre boy from eariler but she saw him flinch and hide behind a tree.

"Please come out.

I won't hurt you!" she said gently.

She then saw a pair of hazel eyes peeking out from behind the tree.

"Y-You won't?

But who're you?" he asked scared.

"My name is Fiona.

Remember me from eariler?

I really wanted to talk to you but my parents pulled me away.

You shouldn't be afraid." she said to him.

"R-Really?

Okay then I'll come out." he said as he came out.

He wore a white tunic with a brown crocodile vest and belt with tartan trousers and little brown boots.

"You look nice.

How come you're out here?

Don't your parents know you're out here?" she asked as the young ogre shook his head.

"N-No they don't.

They sent me away on my birthday.

I was seven last week.

I'm Shrek.

You seem nice too Fiona.

I thought all humans were bad because there are monsters that hunt my kind with their pitchforks and hurt them seriously but they make me afraid to trust humans but you're different." he told her.

"Shrek that only happens to the bad ones.

They won't hurt you because you're an nice one." she told him.

He blushed a little hearing that.

"Aww Fiona that's so cute." he said to her.

"It's okay.

We should be friends." she said to him.

"I'd like that but won't the other grown ups be angry about it?" he said.

"Maybe but some things are worth it but I like you.

I have to go before my parents get worried.

But I'll come back." she told him.

He smiled at that.

"I'd like that." he said to her.

She smiled a very broad smile leaving the forest........

Later that night Harold walked into his young daughter's room.

He wondered why she had a smile on her face while she slept but had no clue she'd made a friend but decided to leave her alone to sleep but knew that for a long time Fiona had been lonely and wanted friends but none of the other kids would play with her because she was a princess but not a spoiled brat like other princesses.#

He hoped she would make friends soon as he left.......
