I ran up to my mum. She smiled sweetly at me. "Hello dear how was your day?" She asked softly. I beamed at her.
"Well I made some friends! Honour, Stark, Simba, Mica and Lauren!" I shouted.
"That's lovely dear." I snuggled to my mother's side and instantly dozed off to sleep.
When I woke glanced around and saw Simba lounging on his back. After an inwards argument I decided to go up to him. He must have heard me approaching because his practically rolled into the back of his head when he glanced at me. "Err hey Simba," I smiled shyly.
"Hey gorgeous," I turned to see Spark walking towards us. My heart skipped a beat. I've had a crush on Spark since I was five weeks old.
"Hi Spark," I did my sweetest smile. Simba suddenly frowned. I guess all the blood was finally going to his head because he was going red. We talked for ten minutes.
"Well I have to go maybe we can meet behind the den later?" He winked. I was still staring at the door of the den when Simba cleared his throat.
"So you wanna play?" He said crouching and smiling mischievously. I matched his crouch and suddenly bolted away. I heard him laugh as the chase began. After about a minute I knew I had I enough distance I found a place to hide. I leapt on to a branch and climbed to another branch. I watched him intently as he sniffed the ground below. I stifled a giggle. I leapt down on to his back. "Gottcha!" I laughed. We were chasing each other for hours before I dropped to the ground panting.
I looked at Simba and by looked I mean really looked. He was so cute when his tuft of mane flopped over his eye.
"Nala? What are you looking at did I get dirt stuck on my face?" He began to twitch nervously. I wiped to goofy grin off my face.
"Um yeah just here." She licked her claw and stroked his face. He let a purr. So did I. Suddenly we both froze and leapt to our feet. I began to cough and Simba ran his paw through his mane.
"Well it's really hot out here. Wanna go for a swim?" He asked nervously. I froze. I'm not what you'd call a water cat.
"Oh yeah you're scared of water," He shot me an apologetic look. "I could teach you to swim!" I nodded happily. We ran to the water hole laughing and pouncing at butterflies. We finally reached the water hole. I glanced at the shady tree and saw Honour, Mica and a group of other girls.
"Hey Nala," Honour waved. I smiled and waved back.
"You ready?" Simba asked. I nodded shuffling uneasily. He grabbed my paw and my heart picked up about a million times in pace. Did I like Simba? That thought was cut short by me being dragged into the water. I began to kick my legs rapidly but I wasn't moving up I was sinking down. I felt some one grab me by he scruff.
I coughed up a lot of water when I got to the surface. "Nala!" I looked up to see Sparks blazing blue eyes staring into mine.
"I'm okay." I coughed. I slowly got to my feet. Spark stared at me for a minute before turning and walking over to Honour and the girls. Simba came and stood beside me. "I'm so sorry." He said his eyes became all watery.
"It's alright Simba how bout we play more chasey?"
"Sounds good to me," He said smiling. I pounced on him laughing. He growled playfully. I took off towards the forest. I attempted to jump a log but face planted.
"Are you ok Nala?" I smiled and nodded.
Simbas P.O.V:
When Nala and me arrived at the water hole all the girls were around the shady tree. Honour and Nala were waving at each other. Gosh she's pretty. I took her paw and saw red flush in her cheeks. Maybe she liked me to? I shook the thought away and dove in. As soon as we hit the surface of the water Nala realised my paw. I quickly swam to the top.
"Nala! Nala!" I screamed over and over but I still couldn't see her until a flash of gold leaped into the water and dove under. The next second Spark surfaced with a choking Nala.
"I'm okay," She coughed.
"Nala I'm so sorry." I said feeling terrible.
"Its alright Simba how bout we play more chasey?" She said brightly. "Sounds good to me." She suddenly pounced on me. I turned and growled back. We were running and laughing before she fell and hit her head.
"Are you ok Nala?" I asked worried. She smiled and nodded. We were giggling as we both leapt onto a near by branch.
"Nala you're my best friend." I randomly blurted out. I started to get really embarrassed until she said.
"Your mine to." She came over and licked me on the cheek. The tree branch suddenly began to groan in protest of our weight. We quickly leapt off but the branch had already snapped and it was about to fall on Nala! I leapt and shoved her out of the way but not in time to move myself, the branch fell straight onto me. "Simba!" Nala shrieked. I let out a cry of pain because the tree wasn't the only one making snapping sounds…
