SIMBA

Marriage, really? is that really the next step we have to take to just so we can live together. doesn't that seem a little ushed to anymore? or is it just me. After breakfast yesterday morning Kye had a very insightful conversation with me. I mean, I know where he is coming from this is his cub was talking about. fathers and daughters have a very strong relationship. So I've been told my Kleo. You can't just up and take someone's heart.

No matter how much he trusts me or likes me. and again I get that and honor it. I think I'm more freaked out about it happening so soon, too damn soon. we've been together for a year. we've grown close, we know each other secretes...well most of them. The ones we are willing to tell. Look Kenya was something new and different for me and she doesn't need t know about my past, at all.

Nothing good would come from it anyway. anyway, I just think she's taking this a little fast. I get she wants to leave and be on her own. But she can wait a while, can't she? I can't see the harm in asking. I guess, the last thing I need to do is put pressure on her to change her mind, and I'm the male after all. We're supposed to do what our lionesses want.

Provide them the life they want. Even if we don't want to. you can't call yourself a true lion if you don't. You're more like some overgrown adolescent cub." great...".

I was at the riverside this morning. I needed the fresh cool air, plus I didn't get a lot of sleep last night as you can imagine. this is the one place I can go to relax and clear my mind. it was weird looking at my reflection from the water. I felt like I didn't know the lion I was even looking at. Was that really me?

I looked the same... I sure as hell didn't feel it. "ugh, what have you gotten yourself into Simba..."

Splash!

I doubled back from the sudden eruption of water. something was thrown into it, or should I say someone threw something in it. " wat a gud reaction my friend!" great as if my day could get any more annoying.

" And just when I thought i had gotten rid of you."

"oh no, ya can't get rid of friends Simba."

"We're not friends and-" wait a second " how do you know my name," I asked looking up at the old mandrill as he hung from a tree. "I've never told you?"

" Oh, no need ta tell ma! I already kno."

" And how is that possible?-hey !" Splash! "stop throwing that!" dammit I hate monkeys, they are so annoying. they lack the ability especially this one, kings what wrong with him? he can't take the hint that he is not wanted here. "Look you'll get water everywhere!"

"Well dats why we hav water, to get slasphed!"

"I'm not even going to argue with you anymore." it was time for me to go back to my reality. I needed to figure out what I truly wanted to so in this situation. I began to turn and leave. And not to my surprise, that damn monkey was following right behind me. swinging from branch to branch. "well you stop following me around, creepy little monkey."

"it looks like to meh, you need some company ma friend."

"for the last time, we are not-"suddenly he landed right in front of me. Kings what was that like 30 feet from in the air, how is that even possible? "friends..." the mandrill who looked familar to me, I just couldn't place him- anyways he dusted himself off, picked up his staff- apparently he's had that staff this whole time as well. he placed a hand on my shoulder.

"Now tell me wats could be ya, problem boy."

"I hope you know I can choose to eat you anytime I want."

"yes, ya can. But ya won't."

"Don't be so sure." Man, we just look ridiculous right about now. A lion and a mandrill walking together side by side. " My calm demeanor hides a real killer on the inside." why did he laugh at this, it's true. "anyways, if I tell you my problem will you leave me the hell alone."

"sure ting."

"ugh, let's just say I have this problem, it's with a great lioness everything perfect about her, but it's still a huge problem with something she wants. And as a result, I feel i'm not ready for it. And you can't force someone to be ready for something there not right."

"oh yes, a problem with da heart."

" there's no problem with the heart, the problem is what I have to do to keep her."

"well deres only one tings I can think of, when dis problems comes at da end of da week. You'll hav ta face and accept the challenge or forvea run a mis ya purpose."

"I didn't ask for this challenge. So I don't think it's fair. And what do you mean end of this week? and purpose, what the hell are you talking about? I'm just not sure i want to rush into marriage. That's all, it isn't that deep."

" trust meh, it is da deep."

"whatever, I'm not sure of what you're talking about. purpose and end of this week? this is what I get for entertaining a crazy monkey."

"hahah lets jus say, i hav a good whisperer in ma ear son. but seriously, ya time is coming in very soon, yu gonna hav to make a choice. Ta stay or go"

"You know you're really creepy?"

"hahah! i get da alot sumtimes."

" Right. well, thank you for wasitng my time and not helping me with my problem. Not that I expected you to help anyways." I made a sharp turn,and left the mandrill hanging.

"Hey where ya goin?"

" can't you see away from you."

"But son ya can't run from ya problems! they wil turn aroun and cum back at ya, it's who our world goes!"

"Sure, whatever. See ya later." Again why did I waste my time talking to the forest fool.

"Remember ya surprise is cumin at da end of da week!"

RyanSquad - lol I always wondered how you were able to review as soon as I posted lol and technically they could be a thing in different fanfic maybe lol.

KawaiiCutie12- Well, you can't say the lion doesn't have big ambition. He might go at it a terrible way.
