Now that Mvumo was officially in a pride again, he seemed to stand taller as he walked along the savannah, eyes scanning the area for signs of his beautiful brown mate Aadil. He was so excited, and eager to tell her that their future was complete. A part of him wished that the rest of his family could be there, but he knew the storm god was protecting them now. It was up to him to continue some of his traditions in these Pridelands.
When he spotted the trees that they usually stayed under, Mvumo started walking toward them, hoping that Aadil would be there.

"And where have you been Mister Mvumo?" she teased playfully, she in fact was not in the trees they had been staying in, she was on her way back from the watering hole, after a morning nap.
She was young and the idea of being pregnant was something that was slightly out of reach. She had noted she was getting a little pudgy--but atributed that to eating so much recently. Also her lower stomach had the feeling of guppies swimming around in it. She thought this was all together normal..but a female friend had said it could mean she was with child.
she rubbed against the length f his body with hers.

"I have been speaking to King Mufasa," Mvumo said, nuzzling her in return. "I am officially a member of the pride, so you don't have to hide me anymore," he explained, half-jokingly.
He noticed the slight pudginess to her form, but didn't pay it any mind. He had been eating better in these lands, so his frame was slightly larger than it had been before. It only made since that the same would apply to Aadil. The idea of her being pregnant, so soon, would have blown his mind had he been thinking about it. Of course, he wanted it to happen in the future, but he wasn't expecting it right this instance.

A large grin spread across her maw, teeth sparkling in the sun. Hiding him? Surely she wasn't; she had not caught the joke.
"I am not hiding you, just keeping you to myself! A pridelander! we should move closer to the rock," she noddedher head motioning to Pride Rock. This was thrilling they were pridelanders, in love, and if her thoughts were correct soon to be parents.
"I have this silly..well.. I, " her voice caught in her throat. How was she going to tell him she may be pregnant and turn around and she might not be..?

"Closer to the rock would be nice," Mvumo agreed. "I've met a new friend who may be able to help us."
Now what was going on? Aadil was acting strangely all of a sudden; usually she was quite talkative, but now her speech was slow, halted. "Nothing you say can be silly," Mvumo said. "What is it?" In an attempt to make the situation a bit more light-hearted, he added, "You didn't see a pack of ostriches, did you?"

Aadil could not help but laugh, ostrich was the first thing he had told her 'as a secret.' Excited that he remembered such a thing, her mother had said men were forgetful.
"I saw an entire flock! They were sticking their heads in the sand evilly," She giggled and then turned to him on a more serious note, "I believe that I may be..you know..umm.. pregnant..?" She sat down quickly hoping it was alright to say it, just like that, no elaboration, just blurting it out.

Mvumo's eyes widened like giant saucers, and for a few moments his mouth hung open until he was able to control himself. "Pregnant? You...we...?" So much news was happening so quickly! Could she really be...? The thought was amazing!
"If you are, I'm sure our pride will protect our cubs from the evil ostriches," Mvumo said. It was probably a very silly thing to say, in retrospect, but the brown lion was in shock at the moment.

"You are not mad? I know we planned cubs..but so soon? Is this alright?" Obviously there was at this point no turning back, lonliness had braught them together, and maybe had expanded their family.
"I'm sure Mufasa is large enough to scare away any ostrich," She smiled. She was concerned about his shock, surely he expected comes sometime soon...no /too/ far into the future?
"We'll move closer to the rock and when our cubs are born...live happily ever after, as they say?"

"Mad?" Mvumo asked, his voice reflecting his surprise at the very idea. "I cannot be mad, Aadil. It was always a possibility; I would have been worried if we were both still rogues when this happened, but we're in a pride as mates. This is perfectly natural."
In retrospect, Mvumo would probably realize that this was one of the longest phrases he had ever spoken. But none of those words were wasted; he had to tell Aadil that, though it was a shock, it was a happy shock.
"I am glad that I to be a father to your cubs. I don't think I can live anything other than happily with you and our children."

Aadil beamed proudly and shifter her weight so that she may lean against him. She had never ehard him speak so many words and for a moment the shock of just that took over. She wanted him to talk like this all of the time, express himself in the only way Aadil could understand actions /and/ words.
"Then it is settled, we will live together with our children as long as the gods will allow," she purred dreamily and started to lick his side affectionately, "Do you think I'll be a good mum?" a silly question, but it was something she worried about. "Nelu is like my sister and she said that I will make the best mother ever."

Mvumo settled contentedly, smiling as he felt the soft weight of Aadil leaning against him. Everything felt so...perfect.
"You will make a wonderful mother," Mvumo said, a bit shocked that anyone could think differently. Of course, when the subject was brought up, a question of his own was brought up. "Do you think I'll be a good storyteller to our children? I know you said I'd be a good storyteller during one of our first meetings, but time has passed for us..."

"You will be an amazing story teller and an even better father to our little ones. It will be an awe filled ocassion actually seeing you speak more than three lines though," she sighed thoughtfully thinking of what the little things in her belly would look like, certainly like him and a ltitle like her..right?
"So, want to take bets no how many? I think they'll be four," there was no way for her to know that two fetuses lay in her womb. "All girls, just to torture you!"

"I think, perhaps, three," Mvumo said. His family history was full of extremely small litters, but if Aadil was guessing a high number, perhaps the combination of their genes would balance out to an average litter. "I do not know the gender, though."
The thought of a son or daughter that looked like a perfect combination of himself and Aadil was enough to make him smile. "I suppose we should meet more of the pride members with cubs or expecting cubs now. We don't want our cubs to grow up without any friends."

"Having a small litter would be nice, but I do hope there is more than one. Know the pain of being an only child, no litter mates!" She giggled and thought of Nelu suddenly she would have to visit her, have to ask if she was an only child, they after all had become like sisters.
"I think I will make a trip to see my friend," she mumbled and stood up suddenly, "I'll be back my dear, no worries." She licked hi nose affectionatly holding in a little giggle, it was nice to be so personal with someone, be able to touch him and have him return such favors.
(MY WRITING IS CRAP! XD -falls over-)

"Girl talk?" Mvumo asked, smirking at Aadil before nuzzling her. He never thought those two words would come out of his mouth. Then again, he never knew so many words could come out of his mouth as the words he had been using recently. He found that conversation had been most enjoyable of late. "I know you will be," He trusted her, and besides, she was so worried about him potentially leaving. There was no possible way she was going to leave.
"Have fun. I will be waiting here for you, when you shall return."
((Mine is worse. xd ))
