A Lovely Flashback


Everything was going well in the Pridelands. Vitani and Mheetu were back and were married, and the cubs were healthy and strong. At the moment, Simba and Nala were sharing a rare moment alone. Simba looked into the eyes of the lioness he had always loved.

“Well, beautiful, thank you for sharing this moment with me,” he said.

“Anything for you, my king,” Nala replied with a purr.

Simba gently licked her cheek. He smiled, a memory flowing through his mind.

“What is it?” Nala asked.

“Do you remember when our love first began?” he asked.

“How could I forget?” Nala replied.

The memories began to flow through Nala’s mind as well. It took them back to a time before their cubs, to before the deaths of Mufasa and Sarabi, to before the fight that took the life of Scar. It was their adolescence.


[Flashback]

Simba had grown into a handsome adolescent. His golden fur had become shinier and he now had the scruffy beginnings of a mane. At the same time, Nala had grown as well. She had now become a gorgeous adolescent. Her eyes, once aqua in color, had turned a dazzling sapphire blue that shone in the sunlight. Simba had fallen for her and her for him. Even though everyone was still reeling from Nuka’s betrayal, Simba had decided to be brave and tell her how he felt. That day, as they hung out near the waterhole, Simba decided to speak.

“Nala, can I talk to you for a moment?” he began.

“Yes?” she replied.

Simba looked at her.

“Uh, I don’t know how to say this, but I’ve kinda…fallen in love with you,” he said nervously.

Nala sat still for a moment, a shocked look on her face, before suddenly jumping up and pinning Simba to the ground.

“Simba, I feel the same way about you. I was hoping you would tell me soon,” she said excitedly.

Simba gently pushed her back.

“Uh, thanks,” he said.

They walked back to Pride Rock together. Upon arrival, they stood at the base together. For a long moment, Simba and Nala looked into each other’s eyes. Then, without warning, Nala leaned in and licked Simba’s face. Simba looked shocked for a moment before leaning in to do the same. It was a perfect moment, but was soon shattered.

“Simba loves Nala! Simba loves Nala!” a familiar female voice said from above.

They looked up to see Vitani standing on the ramp leading up to the den. Simba was furious.

“I’ll get you, ‘Tani!” he shouted as he began to chase after her.

Vitani laughed as she ran into the den. Nala merely chuckled.

“Oh my friends,” she said.

Nala looked into Simba’s eyes.

“Yes, handsome, we’ve had a wonderful relationship,” she said, her eyes sparkling in the sunlight.

“Indeed we have,” Simba said.

They rubbed heads and watched the clouds move by.

Do you think it would be a good idea for you to maybe consolidate your RP poems into a topic and your RP oneshots into a topic? You have so many of each of them that they sort of inundate the forum. :3

The story was nice, I like the idea behind it. However, it seemed to pass by very quickly. Could you maybe flesh it out a little bit? There must be more to that special moment than just a few words. And... what is Vitani doing in the Pridelands? Is the RP AU? :3

[KingKovu44]

Yes, the RP is AU. In this, Vitani was raised as Simba's sister.

[Azdgari]

And the other idea? :3

[KingKovu44]

It was basically that Mufasa lived to see Simba grow up and died of natural causes rather than being killed by Scar. Meanwhile, Scar and Zira were exiled for being caught plotting to kill Simba. Vitani was their daughter and Mufasa and Sarabi raised her.

[Azdgari]

Haha, I was referring to maybe consolidating your RP fics and RP poems into single topics. xD

[KingKovu44]

Ok, I'll do it next time. I'm working on something with Kovu and Kiara for the next one, so I'll do it then.
