Love Will Find a Way [Completed]
Character(s): Kovu and Kiara
Content: Our two young lions have something they really need to talk about...
Setting: Jogo da Crianca
Time: Morning, after this thread and this thread.
Warnings: ...Emo lion.
Only a few minutes after Riku left the park, Kovu decided to settle down to sleep. Kiara would be back soon, and she should have been able to find him without a huge amount of trouble. Sleep came very slowly though, without her by his side, and it was fitful at best. Dreams of Scar and Simba made him toss and turn, until the false sun finally made him wake up.
Drowsy and not exactly ready for a new day yet, Kovu noticed that Kiara had laid her head over his neck. "Kiara..." he whispered softly, trying not to wake her up. As a cub, no amount of thrashing or bad dreams would have ever gotten him this kind of attention, not even from his own mother. Carefully, and very slowly, Kovu pulled his head out from under her, using his muzzle to lower her slowly to the ground so that he wouldn't disturb her sleep. He walked a small distance away from her, making sure she'd be able to see him if she opened her eyes, then put his black box thing on the ground and turned it on.
When he was done with that (and after what was almost an awkward conversation with Simba), Kovu nudged Kiara gently with his nose. "Time to wake up, sleepyhead."

no subject
He stopped talking. He couldn't even think of anything to say. With his eyes shut as tight as he could, he turned his back on Kiara. His whole life, his mother had been lying to him, and training him to take revenge on Simba, and convincing him that it was all Simba's fault that they had to live in the Outlands, and...it was Scar? Kovu didn't want to admit it, but...it hurt. Scar wasn't...he wasn't Kovu's father, and he'd hardly ever really acted like one. But that didn't...Scar was still part of him, even if he didn't like it now. But to find out one day that Scar didn't remember his heir at all...and then the next that Scar had done something so horrible...He'd even made Simba blame himself for it! It was too much. It was just...too much.
"...I gotta go." With a deep breath, but without saying anything more, Kovu started walking away from Kiara. It was the second time since they'd gotten here that he'd found himself wanting so badly to just...leave. How could he look her in the eye after learning that someone he'd always looked up to had been a killer? And had put her father through so much torment? It was best if he just...left her alone.
