"S-s-s-shrek?!?!" She shrieked.
"Hello.. my familiar little cutie patootie snowball meatball honeypie.." He slurred, inching his way closer.
"I-I-I-I-I thought y-y-you were in j-jail!" He backed away, clenching the twig in her small hands.
"You're still so adorable.. you haven't changed since 4 years ago.. Is your mother well?" He grabbed her wrist.
"D-d-do not! Talk a-about m-m-my mother." She snapped, his grip tightening on her shaking wrist.
"You've gotten brave." He smirked, and Renesmelisamirandadiana's heart dared to skip a beat. "Boys. Here. Now." He motioned his finger to come over.
People who looked like the spitting images of him all obeyed his instructions, their emotionless faces becoming clear in the moonlight.
"W-w-w-who are t-they..?" Renesmelisamirandadiana nervously squeaked.
"My minions." He chuckled darkly.
"I cloned myself about 696969 times, and scattered them all throughout the world.. at the smallest chance.. of finding you." He looked up at her, a glint of hope in his glossed over eyes.
"Y-y-y-y-y-you did t-t-that f-for me..?" She made eye contact with him.
"Of course. Anything for you." He smiled, a soft look now painted on his greasy face.
"Years, have I spent looking for you. Oh, what I would have done just to see your smile, to be in your warm embrace once more."
He gazed at the sky, the shimmering light of the stars, making the oil on his face stand out even more.
He softened his grip on her still trembling arms, and he eventually let go.
"Kneecaps," He started.
"Stop. D-d-do not c-call me t-t-t-that. You a-are not a-a-a-a-allowed to call m-me that anymore. N-not since.." She didn't have the guts to finish her sentence.
"Leave. I d-do not want to s-s-s-s-see you again. Y-y-y-you betrayed me." She looked away, breaking the eye contact.
"Please, my kneecaps. I.."
"You what?" She harshly said.
"I-I.. I can't say it. I'm afraid, you will hate me even more." He looked down at his big, muscly hands.
"W-w-w-what can you p-possibly say to m-make me hate y-you more than I-I-I-I-I do now?"
"Will you please not hate me, even if you do not accept what I say?" He looks back up at her, now on his knees.
"Fine." She looks down at him, an unfamiliar sense of power in her tone.
"I am sorry, kneecaps. For all I have done. I know it was an unforgivable act that I committed, but time has changed. I have changed. I guarantee it. And I know I was a player, a notorious heartbreaker back then. But I will never, and I mean never in the entirety that I will live, will let that happen again. Kneecaps, I'm sorry, but I am in love with you."
Tears were now falling down to the ground and Renesmelisamirandadiana's hands were in his.
"I love you, kneecaps. Always and forever."
Renesmelisamirandadiana's eyes widened at the familiar phrase that Shrek and her would say to each other every day when they were younger.
Always and forever.. Always and forever..
The words replayed in her head, and she couldn't believe what she was thinking.
She had forgiven him, and deep deep down, had she realized, that she was in love with Shrek too.
