Hi guys! This is my first story, so…yeah. I won't be surprised if you think it terribly horrid. Oh, by the way. This is after the Battle of Reunion, BEFORE Kovu and Kiara are crowned King and Queen.
Kiara stepped out of the cave into the warm sunshine. She looked around for her Kovu, but she found her mother instead. "Hey, Mom," she said, grinning and nuzzling her mom. "Have you seen Kovu?"
Nala smiled at Kiara. "Last I saw, he was having a 'talk' with your father," she said, grinning.
Kiara groaned internally. "I wonder what now…" she muttered.
Nala giggled. "Don't worry, Kiara. It'll be fine," she said. "After all, you two are already married. What could happen?"
Kiara smiled at her mother, reassured. "Okay," she said.
She returned to her normal spot in the cave, just at the entrance. Finally, she saw Kovu and Simba, and ran to meet them. "Kovu!" she squealed excitedly. She put her head underneath his chin and purred, and he nuzzled her. Kovu laughed. "I love it when you randomly hug me as if you haven't seen me in ten years," he said, his green eyes staring lovingly into hers.
"Aww," Kiara said, her own red/brown eyes staring back into his the same way. "If feels as if I haven't seen you in ten years," she said, smiling.
Simba cleared his throat, as if to remind his daughter and son-in-law that he was still there.
Kovu and Kiara swallowed down giggles and looked at Simba. "Yes, Daddy?" Kiara asked innocently.
Simba laughed. "You don't fool me. Just because you are no longer single doesn't mean you are allowed…to carry on about how much you like each other in…my presence," he teased. Simba loved his daughter deeply, and was having a slight tough time realizing that she wasn't really his little girl anymore. She was a grown lioness now, and he was very, very proud of her. "But anyway," Simba continued, "I figured I'd let Kovu tell you what we discussed on his own." Then he waked down the path, to his wife and best friend, Nala.
Kiara grinned. "So, what did you talk about?" she said, barely able to contain her excitement.
Kovu smiled knowingly. He leaned down, as if he were telling Kiara a great secret, and whispered, "He gave us permission to have cubs."
Kiara screamed happily, and tackled Kovu, knocking him over.
