Simba looks at his best friend Nala, who is lying on the grass beside him she is asleep and every time the wind blows by she shivers and scoots closer to Simba, and every time she moves closer Simba thinks even harder about how great it would be if he could be her mate, instead of whoever he was "Betrothed" to he heard his parents talking about it once, but he didn't catch the name…

"Simba" Nala whispered Simba looked down at her confused as she opened her eyes and stared at him he stared back and no matter how hard he tried to look away he couldn't, he didn't realize how close they were, or how intimate their position was,

"Nala" he whispered back then looked out over the Savannah but looked back when he felt Nala's tongue grace the side of his face, he looked at her in shock but she lowered her head and looked up a little seductively, she wasn't trying to it was just the way her face turned out.

"Simba, can I tell you something" she said louder he nodded and scooted off of her and a little to the side she rolled her eyes and pounced on him pinning him in a second then she laughed softly "That doesn't mean you have to move" she said smiling Simba nodded quickly, she relaxed on top of him, her front paws going over his shoulders and her back ones on the side for support so she doesn't fall,

"Nala, I love you" Simba said suddenly realizing what he just said, then he looked sheepishly away, but Nala would have none of that she maneuvered her face in front of his, and made him look up at her. She smiled at him and moved her lips dangerously close to his ear

"I love you too Simba" she said moving her lips to his and kissing him passionately little did they know that Serabi, Simba's mom, was watching them when she saw this she ran back to her husband Mufasa, and Nala's mom Sarafina, and told them everything she just saw

Nala looked deep into Simba's eyes as she got off of him they laughed and walked back home, side by side,

That night Nala snuck away from her mother and crawled into the cave next to Simba, who was fully aware that she did, Simba maneuvered his head so it was right next to hers and put his right paw on top of her left one. They both slept peacefully that night.

They were both still asleep when Sarafina ran up to the cave and bumped, literally, into Mufasa and Serabi as they were walking out of the cave

"Have you seen Nala, I woke up and couldn't find her" she said calmly knowing that if she was anywhere she would come back, but still mothers worry was taking over.

"Yes follow me" Serabi said quietly and showed Sarafina Nala and Simba inside the cave, very happy with what she saw, she left the young cubs to themselves…

They are both still cubs in this version, so just in case you were wondering I was going to make them older but thought it would be better if they were just young and in love R&R!
