Here's the 4th chapter…. I originally was going to combine this with another chapter but then I decided to change that. I know its short but I feel that the tone might make up for it, anyway hope you enjoy : )

Kovu opened his eyes and yawned. He sighed, this was the best night sleep he had had in a while. He looked next to him to find Kiara sleeping against him. Once more he sighed, a sadder sigh then last time. He turned his head and lowered it in shame. Remembering what happened last night.

[That's right,I told her the truth last night….. It wouldn't surprise me if now no one trusted me. And to be honest I don't even trust myself at this rate] Kovu thought.

And with thinking that Kovu carefully moved himself away from his beloved Kiara and started to walk out of the darkened cave that was now being illuminated by the rising sun that was right across. Before exiting the cave Kovu turned back and look at Kiara

"Just remember Kiara…. I love you" Kovu whispered.

Those words were hard enough for him to think but to actually say it made Kovu feel even more depressed.

Walking up to the edge of Pride Rock Kovu remembered first coming here and how happy he was to be with Kiara.

Kovu closed his eyes and began to walk back.

"I know they might still trust me but…" he stopped walking

"If I can't even trust myself how could anyone else trust me" he said tears beginning to build in his eyes.

Kovu walked back to the entrance of the cave and looked at Kiara one last time. After a minute of looking at her, he turned and started to run down the rocks and away from Pride Rock. As Kovu was running tears began to fall from his face and he closed his eyes remembering all the good times he had had with her and how she'd always comfort him when he was down.

Kovu opened his eyes and began to slow down before coming to a complete stop. He turned his head in the direction of Pride Rock.

"Forgive me Kiara… This is the only way…. I love you" Kovu said.

And with that Kovu turned his head and began to walk again not knowing where he was headed but he figured that the farther away the better.

Back in the cave Kiara slowly began to open her eyes. She gave out a great big stretch and yawn. She looked behind her to see Kovu, except he wasn't there. Figuring that he was outside she stood up, took one last stretch and headed out side where it was still early with a cool breeze and the sun not even all the way past the horizon yet. Looking around Kiara tried to find Kovu but couldn't. She figured he must've went to the water hole for a drink so she went there. When she arrived she didn't see Kovu nor anybody else. At this point Kiara sighed wondering where he could be. As she started to walk back to Pride Rock she found her mother taking her daily walk.

"Mother!" Kiara shouted softly as she ran up to her.

Nala turned in the direction of her daughters voice "What is it dear?"

Nala saw in her daughters eyes the she was almost scared.

"Have you seen Kovu mother?" Kiara asked.

Nala paused for a minute.

"Kiara I…" she began

"Mom what is it?" Kiara asked nervously.

Nala closed her eyes and sighed lifting her head then dropping it back to its original position.

"I over heard Kovu talking to himself about how no one could trust him" she said.

Kiara now looked back and forth scared "Why would he say that?" she wondered and also asked.

Nala sighed "I don't know Kiara but he said that if he couldn't trust himself how could anyone else" she explained.

Kiara started to turn around and run but immedietly stopped. She turned her head and body around to face her mother "Mother I'm sorry I have to go" Kiara said.

Nala walked over to Kiara "I know Kiara… Simba explained to me whats been going on"

Kiara looked away then turned towards her mother again.

"Kiara, Kovu is right now confused and lost. He needs you to help him through this" Nala stated.

"But why mother? Kovu should know that's he's good" said Kiara starting to cry.

Nala put her head over her Kiara "We know he's good but don't forget what he went through as a cub. He's still fears of what he was raised to do… And until he admits that that is who he used to be, he won't be able to let go of the past and he needs you there to help guide him" Nala explained.

Kiara took her head away from Nala "alright mother" she said

Kiara turned around and started to walk away until Nala said her name again.

"Yeah mom?" she asked turning her head towards her mother.

"Before Kovu left he said to remember that he loves you" Nala said.

Kiara looked at the ground then to her mother "I will be back later mom with Kovu" and with that Kiara turned and ran off.

Nala watched her daughter go "I know dear".
