Author: Hey again guys, ^.^ Like i said, i wanna post chapters more faster so that u guys can enjoy :D btw. Please Review PLS cuz i wanna hear ur comments on my story. Good, Bad, Neutral. I dont mind. i would just appreciate if u review. but if u dont review, i also dont mind, due to the fact i rarely review too. Sorry. Lets get to the story.

Nala POV

I was talking to 'The Special 7'. However, this day was gonna be horrible because they saw me and Simba, 'Cuddling'. My face was hotter then the intense heat in the Pridelands. Seriously, its like a tomato + The Sun.

"Sooo, what did you do with 'Simba'" Tama smirked. 'I hate that smirk' was what i thought. Though i was confused about her question.

"What do you mean?" i tilted my head?

"You dont know?!" Kula gasped. Tama just gave me a sly smile and continued "You know... Sleeping together..". I still remained oblivious and replied "Yeah so? we cuddled in our sleep and slept in each others embrace." Unfortunately, they laughed and i just rolled my eyes and told them im gonna go take a drink. When i reached the waterhole, i just realized something. Where's Aibu? and Simba? The thought of those two together made my heart ache. I ignored the fact and just lap my tongue on the water.

'He doesnt love love me. He only loves me as a friend' I thought, trying not to get over-confident about the fact. After i was done, i was about to get up from my 'drinking position' but suddenly, i felt a nudge behind me and i fell into the shallow water. However, to me, shallow is 'DEEP'. Finally, i resurfaced and saw who nudged me. I saw SIMBA. My temper was starting to calm and i sighed in relief but he didnt heard it because he was too busy 'LAUGHING', Luckily, it was just Simba. Not 'The Devil Sikia'.

I wanted to get back to Simba, but i didnt know how. Suddenly, i thought of an idea but i didnt know if it would work. However, i just went with it.

Simba POV

I continued to laugh because her reaction was priceless. She was like 'imma kill whoever did this' and when she see's me. She changed her mind. Like seriously, who would kill me. Im Brave and Strong. Suddenly, i saw Nala walk to the shore of the deep end of the waterhole, but there were still some space between her and the water.

I was curious until, I heard her sob. I felt bad because she never liked getting her fur soaked in water and she hates swimming. I walked up to her slowly. She was looking at her paws and her back was facing me.

"Hey Nal, Im sorry, i didnt mean to make you this sad. Turn around" I apologized, but she refused to turn around, so i walked past her and i was now face to face with her. I was about to speak up again until i saw her smile. In a blink of an eye, she nudged me and i fell into the deep water. I quickly resurfaced and gasped for air. Seeing a rather, 'HAPPY' Nala.

"HAHA! WHOS THE PRANKSTER NOW? IM THE PRANKSTER NOW. IM THE BEST!" Nala shouted in pure excitement. Though i didnt wanna lose my title, so i protested.

"That was luck, im still the best" with an annoyed look

"nope"

"yup"

"nope"

"yup"

We argued until finally, I gave in my title. TO NALA. That sweet innocent girl, that has a mean-fun side. Arghh. But still, I cant argue with Nala. She somehow has a way with words. I just smiled seeing her exaggerate. I then decided to joke around.

"You may take my title, but i still have one more title" I joked which caused Nala to stop laughing.

"which is?" She asked with curiosity.

"I have the 'MOST HANDSOME-EST COAT' in the whole of Pridelands." I boast, but i didnt expect Nala to have a sad expression. Then it hit me, before we were friends, everyone hated her coat. I realized what i've done, so i went up to her and said what my father always said to me, so that i could cheer her up.

"Nala, past is just a memory that reminds us of what we used to be. The past isnt all that bad, even if it sucks. It shows who you really are, so dont be sad. Your coat is also beautiful." I smiled which caused Nala to become wide-eyed.

"Your father told you that? right?" Nala asked, just to make sure.

"Yeah... Wait, what does that mean? Are you saying im not wise" I gave my mischievous grin. "Well,..." She thought for a second before continuing. "Yup"

I had an expression that clearly says 'Seriously?'. She laughed at my reaction before we decided to find for our friends.

Aibu POV

I finally reached my 'small group' it took 3 - 4 hours to get here from the 'Pridelands'. There's not much in my group, only 6 of us, including me. Ni, our leader. Mheetu, his son. Sukari, a lioness cub from Priderock that belongs to Jicho and older sister to Chumvi. She followed us because of personal reasons. Laila and Mirza, Sisters and brothers that lost their home. And finally, me. They found me when i was unconscious beside a river. I seriously love water.

Our 'small group' was hidden in a cave that was guarded by a Jungle. Finally, after i was at the opening of the cave. "Hey Guys!" I shouted. Suddenly, Sukari and Laila came running to me and jumped onto me. We were the best of friends. Slowly after that, Mheetu and Mirza came out and sighed in relief. Finally, Ni came out of the shadows and approached me. He's seriously scary, but he has a soft and kind heart too.

"Aibu, where have you been? I was worried." Ni asked, clearly worried. I wanted to lie, but i know i would fail. No one can lie to Ni, seriously, no one. He knows when we're lieing.

"I umm I was at umm..." I couldnt finish, due to fear slowly creeping its way towards my entire body.

"You were at?" Ni asked. I couldnt take it anymore so i just blurted out. "I was in the Pridelands!" I shouted and quickly curled up into a ball. Its so effective. Mheetu and Sukari gasped while Mirza and Laila just stared. Ni was about to get mad, but he just sighed and said "Why in the world would you go to the Pridelands? To blow our cover?" Ni said in a rather harsh tone, but i didnt blame him for doing so. Besides, he's our leader.

"I was just curious and it was an accident." I replied with a very soft voice but clear enough for Ni to hear. "And your accident was?" Ni asked.

"I was being chased by hyenas on the way over to the Pridelands. But luckily, King Mufasa's son saved me, sort off." I looked at Ni and he looked sad. Probably, because King Mufasa was his good friend and he misses Sarafina.

"Dont go there again okay? without my permission" Ni warned. I nodded and he just sighed before returning to his den. Mheetu continued to look at me and asked "How does my sister look like?" I smiled at the thought of Nala. "She looks very pretty and like your mother." Mheetu smiled and i swore i saw him shred a tear. He was 1-year old and i was 8 months old, i think.

Then, Mheetu and Mirza continued to talk. Suddenly, Laila went up to me and asked "Is the 'prince' Handsome?" I smiled and nodded. Then our days was filled with talking and talking and talking. Mostly, gossip. For the girls. Laila had a light brown fur with orange eyes. Sukari had greyish-blue fur which is pretty rare. Mheetu had tan cream fur but slightly darker then Nala's. While Mirza has greyish- gold fur. Which is a nice combination.
