Memory Lane!

Tiana and Naveen are relaxing in their king sized bed. Tiana is snuggling deeply into Naveen's chest feeling all warm by his body heat and Naveen was enjoying having Tiana close to him, he loved the way she felt against his skin. He had one big muscled strong arm wrapped around her waist as the other is stroking her gorgeous long black curly hair.

He was grinning happily.

Tiana looked up at him and raised an eyebrow.

"Oh you are just enjoying this aren't you?" Tiana said.

"Oh…yes." Naveen said. "You are like a soft cushion that I can squeeze all day.

To prove his point he squeezed her even tighter.

Tiana felt too suffocated like a snake was squeezing the life out of her.

"Naveen…can't breath!" Tiana said wheezing her eyes popping out.

Naveen looked down and chuckled.

"Oops!" Naveen said loosening his tight grip. "Sorry my love."

Tiana started panting heavy while she glared up at him.

"You know when a man shows too much love to a woman it can be quite worrisome."

Naveen was currently in a trance as he stared at Tiana but he shook his head.

"I'm sorry what?"

Tiana huffed.

"Oh you see!" Tiana said pulling away from him and sitting up crossed her arms. "Prince charming…I seriously worry about you sometimes…and I am not kidding around."

Naveen grinned and sat up then wrapped his arms around her waist.

"And I am not…please don't get angry with me." He said gazing into her eyes.

Tiana looked at him.

"Hm…hm…hm" Naveen hummed at her, while looking like a lost puppy.

He always knew how to make her laugh.

Tiana grinned and laughed.

"Okay…okay please stop that!" Tiana said toughing his cheek. "Gosh you are such a crazy kid!"

Naveen pulled back with widened eyes.

"Kid!"

"Yes a kid." Tiana said. "When I look into your eyes I see it.

Naveen grinned.

"Well…I'm sorry to break this to you Tiana but you've seen how far I prospered over the years." He demonstrated by flexing his arm muscles to prove a point.

Tiana looked at him.

"Umhmm…yep." Tiana said. "I must admit that you did change a lot over the years."

"And?"

Tiana sighed.

"And matured!...yet"

"Yet…what?"

"I see an inner child in you…in fact it does look vaguely familiar…like…"

"Like…"

"I had seen you before…once."

At this Naveen raised an eyebrow and thought about it. Had he seen her before many years ago?

'Hmm' He thought.

He closed his eyes deep in thought…when.

His eyes widened.

"Ah!...yes I remember you." He quickly jumped off the bed and ran to the dresser and checked the draws…

"Huh…what?" Tiana was confused.

Naveen finally found what he was looking for and hurried back to his wife.

Tiana looked in his hand and spotted an old photograph.

"This…photo is us when were younger!" Naveen said.

Tiana took a good look at the photograph and saw them…probably about five or six years old. But it was defiantly them back then and smiling happily.

She noticed that they were hugging around the shoulders.

Tiana thought back and remembered a flashback…

()()()()

15 years ago…

Tiana and her mother were walking hand in hand in New Orleans heading to the park for some fresh air. The morning sun was blazing down them due to it being summer and there wasn't a cloud in sight. Tiana didn't really want to go as she wanted to see her father at the café; he worked at in the French Quarter.

Tiana sighed.

"Mama…" A five year old Tiana said looking up at her mother.

"Yes babycakes." Her mother Eudora said smiling, while looking down at her daughter.

"Can't we see daddy today."

"No…babycakes." Eudora said. "Your daddy has a lot of work to do today as it's the busiest time of the month, but you can see him later on."

Tiana sighed again.

"Oh cheer up babycakes…you could use some good fresh air and meet other children to play with or a friend." Lately, Tiana's mother has seen how antisocial her daughter is all the time except with Charlotte who is her best friend. But it wouldn't hurt to try and communicate with others at her own age every once in a while.

Eudora sees her daughter act grown up and mature for her own age which isn't very healthy.

"Mama…I am just fine."

Just as they reach the gate leading into the park area.

"Now go run along and play!" Eudora said smiling. "I'll be sitting at that bench over there."

Tiana looked at her mum.

"Well go on…off you go!" Tiana's mother patted her back to encourage her to go off and have fun.

Tiana then moved and walked up to the swing set.

She sat down on the swing set and rocked slowly while checking out her surroundings, she sees other children playing happily, yet she was alone.

She sighed and looked down.

"Hey there…you look ssad." A young accented voice spoke to her.

She looked up and saw a six year old young foreign boy. He had curly black hair that covered his golden brown eyes, tan brown skin. He wore a princely outfit, like royal attire. He grinned cutely at her.

Tiana huffed.

"Oh leave me alone…I wan to be alone!"

The young boy looked confused.

"Why?"

"Because…be…" Tiana paused as she thought. "I don't know…I just like the quiet…"

The boy looked like he understood.

"Oh…well you look like you could use a friend."

Tiana looked up at him.

"You wanna be my friend."

He nodded his head and grinned.

"Yeah!" The boy said enthusiastic.

Tiana smiled and giggled.

"Hehehe…you're funny." Tiana said. "Well…my name is Tiana and yours…"

The boy coughed and straightened his posture then gave a graceful bow.

"I am…Priince Naveen of Maldonia!"

Tiana giggled.

"You talk funny."

He shrugged.

"I guess it is my culture."

"Well it is an honour." She then cutely curtsied.

Naveen grinned and laughed.

They stood their for a while…when Naveen decided to break the silence.

"Hey you wan me to push you on the swing." He said

Tiana smiled.

"Sure!"

Naveen then went behind Tiana and pushed her gently as she went back and forth yet going higher and higher.

"Hehehe…higher Naveen!" Tiana giggled.

"Okay!"

After a while, they swapped places on the swing, then played many other games like, tag or hide and seek, on the monkey bars, skipping rope…

It was now sunset and they were sat on the grass watching the sunset together.

Tiana looked at Naveen and found him looking cute as he looked at the sunset. His eyes shined a bright golden brown as he was smiling happily.

She blushed.

"Naveen I'm glad were friends."

He looked at Tiana grinned.

"So am I…Tiana." He hugged her with one arm.

Tiana's blush hardened.

Suddenly, a voice was heard!

"Naveen!"

Naveen heard and stood up worried.

Tiana looked up.

"What is it Naveen?" She asked, but she also heard the voice.

"Naveen…Naveen darling where are you?"

Naveen heard the vice properly and sighed sadly.

"It's my mother…she is calling me, we are going back to the ship and heading home…"

"Oh…"Tiana said sadly.

"Don't worry we will meet again." Naveen said the smiling. "Friends…forever."

Tiana smiled.

"Yeah…" They then hugged each other and then pulled back.

Naveen's eyes widen in realisation.

"Oh…my camera!"

Tiana looked confused for a moment but then saw him pull out a small camera.

"Let's take a picture of us together…that way I won't forget about you." He said smiling.

Tiana then smiled.

"Okay let's do it." They drew close to one another and gave a shoulder hug but smiled happily, as Naveen held up the camera and took a snap shot of them.

They pulled away and looked at each other.

"I will miss you Tiana."

"Me too…"

Then with a wave goodbye they went their separate ways…

Tiana smiled.

Naveen looked questioningly at Tiana.

"Tiana…" He called out quietly.

Tiana looked at him and hugged him.

"I can't believe you kept this all these years."

Naveen smiled.

"You…were my first ever friend I had Tiana and being a prince I never got to make any friends because I had duties, studies and events to attend to." Naveen said and sighed.

"Well to tell you the truth…I never forgot that day we met." Tiana said smiling genuinely.

Naveen grinned.

"You were the kindest and sweetest boy I had ever met or called a friend."

Naveen laughed and rubbed his neck.

"Well I wouldn't say adorable…per say!"

Tiana looked up at him.

"No really…and to be honest I may have had…" Tiana paused for a moment.

"Naveen raised an eyebrow curious.

"Had…a crush on…you."

Naveen's eyes widened.

"What!"

Tiana shrugged.

"Yep…me crushing on a guy…crazy huh."

Naveen's gaze went back to normal and he smiled.

He put his one of his fingers under her chin and made her look at him.

"No…I don't…" He leaned forward and kissed her lips then pulled away.

Tiana smiled.

"You will always be my dearest friend Tiana and now my…true lover."

She slowly leaned forward and kissed him.

And he kissed back…
