Notes/Disclaimer-I'msosorry for the lack of an update! The only character I own is Raha.
A dark-gold lioness, the same age as Taka, padded up to Uru and her son."Hey, Taka," she said, eyeing the cub curiously.
"Hey, Sarabi," he answered back. He then noticed the look on her face. "Oh, the baby. Her mom died in the storm."
"Oh. You know where Mufasa is?"
"No. Probably avoiding love-sick girls like you," Taka teased.
"I do not love him."
"Well, then, if you don't love him, he's probably embarrassed for sending you those flowers."
"So he's the one that sent me those!" Sarabi hurried after Uru, who was just going into the cave. Taka rolled his eyes as he walked to the watering hole. Another cream-colored adolescent lioness was next to him, lapping up the water.
"Hey, Sarafina, you doing anything tonight?" he asked.
"Um, I don't think so," she replied."Oh, I have a date with Raha."
"You do?" Taka whined.
"Yes, she does," came a voice behind them. Raha was light brown colored with a darker brown mane that fell over his right eye, even though it was just beginning to grow. "Quit trying to steal my girlfriend, Taka."
"I am not trying to steal your 'girlfriend'," Taka said defensively.
"Yeah right." The two males started to argue. (I'm not writing the actual argument out, because it is unimportant.)
"SHUT UP!" Sarafina finally shouted. Taka and Raha stopped and stared at her, blinking with surprise. She was usually quiet. Sarafina took a deep breath. "Taka, no offence, but I've never had a crush on you. We can just be friends. Raha, I know I'm you girlfriend, but if your going to argue over me like I'm some kind of...some kind of piece of property, then I will have to dump you." With that, the teenager lioness went back to Pride Rock.
"Look, no hard feelings, right?" Raha asked as he followed her.
"Yeah, whatever," Taka muttered.
When he got to the cave, the baby was asleep next to a stuffed animal. When Taka was a young cub, Uru had found a teddy bear that some unfortunate child had dropped on the savanna. Taka had become quite attached to it.
"You stay away from Mr. Fluffy," he said as he pushed the baby away. Why can't I make any friends? He wandered as he drifted off to sleep.
More notes- Whoa. That was like the worst chapter ever. I swear, I HAVE improved my writing since this. Promise. Ahem…reviews? Constructive criticism?
