 Dubwana had returned to the large rock where he had last seen Gouta, his mate. Or at least he considered the male his mate. He wasn't sure how the sandy lion felt about him and that worried him. While he knew that the lion liked him- they had spent that night together after all- he wasn't sure just how much the other male liked him. Or even if he would consider being his mate. The big black and white lion sighed, he was never good with problems he had always found that brute force worked better than thinking. This time though he had the feeling that brute force would be the worst way to go.
The rogue sprang up onto the large boulder, not even wincing as he landed on all four paws. His back leg had healed up nicely even though he hadn't taken the best care of it. He was lucky that he didn't have a permanent limp. The male sniffed the air and not catching the scent of any other lions he opened his maw, letting out a few short roars before a long loud roar escaped his maw. He wasn't sure if Gouta would hear or recognize him but he could only hope.
Listening to his roar echo across the Savannah he waited for a moment before repeating himself wanting to make sure there was more than once chance for his lover to hear him. Then he curled up on the rock, his head on his paws willing to wait for him, gold eyes always watching.

A familiar roar echoed across the savanna, and it hit Gouta like a storm. Jumping up instantly, he stood his ground, expecting a vicious creature of some sort to make it's appearance. It took quite a few minutes for him to realize that he had recognized the roar. As he had heard it many a night a go...while he and Bwana were...
ANYWAY. Thinking something might be wrong with his dear friend, he bounded away towards the roar. Heading to where he had last seen Bwana. His home, his rock.
---
As he approached the large boulder, Gouta noticed the familiar black and white male resting atop. With a smile the lion asked:
"Didja call me?"

 Bwana sighed as he waited for his lover. The sandy lion sure was taking a long time, or maybe Bwana was just impatient. The black and white rogue had a feeling the latter was most likely true. His tail twitched, anxious, what if Gouta didn't hear him? Should he roar again?
He was just about to sit up and do so when he noticed a lion moving towards him. His gold eyes narrowed and he grinned when he saw it was Gouta moving towards him. Standing up on the rock he waited until his lover came closer to grin down at him. "Yes," And with a playful growl he jumped down from the rock, tackling the sandy lion. Bwana couldn't help but rub his large head and mane all over Gouta's neck and muzzle, purring loudly. He still had his worries about how much Gouta cared about him, but upon seeing the sandy lion he couldn't hold himself back and ended up throwing himself at him, literally.
"I missed you," He lifted his head to bite and tug at the other male's ear gently, a smile on his maw. He was standing over Gouta, his tackle had knocked the other male onto his back giving Bwana access to his chest and neck- access that he readily exploited licking and nuzzling the male's fur, and burying his head in Gouta's mane.

Gouta stood there in front of Bwana's boulder silently. First of all, he was amazed he could actually tell one roar from another. It's not like he had followed a call before. Expecting the black and white lion to be calm, cool, and collective and pretend like there was nothing between them. Gouta was soon proved wrong!
Being pushed into the thick grass, Gouta was reminded of the cheetah he had met a few days before. But the way she had reacted at first was violent, and Bwana? Well, he might as well be barfing rainbows from his mouth. The sandy lion didn't mind the male's rough loving as long as he didn't start suffocating him. There was a thing as loving someone to death.
Deciding he wouldn't hold his feelings back either, Gouta purred at Bwana's tender nips to his ear. It kinda felt good, you know. An actual relationship.
"Aw, I missed you too, sweetie." Gouta cooed, allowing Bwana finish up his lickings and he rolled over to his stomach. "I wasn't expecting so much attention."

For a couple moments Bwana was lost in the other male's scent, taking it in. His golden eyes were closed as he rubbed his head against his mate's fur. He couldn't help himself, his mind was telling him he needed to pull back and talk about things but his heart was telling him that he was in the perfect place.
Hearing his lover's purrs, he grinned and the lion managed to draw back to look down into Gouta's face. Being called sweetie was usually something he would balk at, but in his affectionate mood it just made him smile. He didn't back off as Gouta rolled over, standing over his back now. Leaning down he nuzzled the back of his lover's ears before speaking, a chuckle in his voice.
"I couldn't help myself, I actually wanted to talk to you, but when I saw you...well you saw what happened." He laughed, his chest rumbling. Giving the sandy lion one last nuzzle he stepped off him and moved around until he could lay in front of him. Bwana crossed his paws and laid his head on them, his mane creating a black halo around his face. He was silent for a moment, gold eyes glittering as he looked into Gouta's. When he did speak, his words were soft.
"Gouta...." He paused, he wasn't good at talking about his feelings. He was good at acting upon them. "I know we like each other a lot, obviously." He chuckled at that before continuing. "But, what if I want more, what if....what if I want to be with you forever?" He had never felt as awkward as he had right then and there. He had never had to talk about his feelings before and he had a feeling that he wasn't doing it well.

Gouta gave Bwana a smile as the larger male continued to give him lickings and nuzzles. It sent shivers down his spine, and really, it was lovely. It felt like they did indeed belong together. Forever was a long time, and Gouta hadn't even thought about time other than the current and past. However, he knew future was lurking around somewhere.
Gouta's own gold eyes, matching Bwana's, sparkled as they looked into each other's. Waiting for Bwana to make his proposition. Gouta couldn't help but think about how handsome Bwana was and how lucky he was to have such a charming man. This guy could have had anyone! Anything! But Bwana chose him. Luck had a name and it was Gouta.
The sandy lion's ears perked curiously as Bwana proposed.
"I! I wanna be with you. You're the only lion I've ever really known, and I already know you're the only one I'll ever love." Gouta's eyes began to fill with happy tears. "I...I love you."
Frowning, as the words escaped his mouth the pitiful lion burst into tears of joy. Wailing at the top of his lungs.

After he spoke Bwana was almost holding his breath, scared that the other lion would reject him. Watching his ears perk up and then hearing his response, he exhaled all at once, relieved. A grin lit up his maw , happier than he had been since the last time he had seen Gouta.
"I love you too Gouta, more than anything in the world." He could see the sandy lion's gold eyes watering up and he frowned. Did he say something wrong?
When the watery eyes blew up into full on bawling Bwana's eyes widened. "Gouta?" He shuffled forwards, licking at the other males face and rubbing his head against him. "Please don't cry, love," He shuffled forwards a little bit more so that he could tuck his head under Gouta's chin, pressing against him. He wasn't sure why the other lion was sobbing. He obviously wasn't as in touch with his feminine side as his mate was. "I'm sorry if I said something wrong, I just wanted to tell you how much I loved you" He kept his head pressed against Gouta's chest, being able to hear his heart beat even through the lion's wailing.

Oh it was so emotional for Gouta! Every word Bwana said made him let out a loud cry. Love yes love. Love is what he felt, nothing was wrong! Males were always taught never to show their emotions, but apparently Gouta missed that lesson in life. After Bwana had stopped talking for a second, Gouta paused his sniffles and heaved a deep sigh.
"Everything...is...fine...!!!" He began crying again, but quickly snapped out of it this time. "I mean, I do. I do want to spend the rest of my life with you. That's why...I'm...cry...ing..."
The sandy lion held back his tears of joy and paid more attention to all the cuddles Bwana was giving him.
"I'm fine, we're good, I'm fine." Gouta said excitedly, nuzzling his face against the to of Bwana's head.

Bwana was at a loss, he didn't deal with his emotions well and he dealt with other's emotions even worse. He had a feeling that he needed to get used to it if he was going to stay with Gouta, the sandy lion seemed overly emotional. As the sniffles started to die down and theo ther mal egot a hold of himself Bwana didn't move. He just kept close to his mate, it was actually comforting when Gouta wasn't wailing.
Hearing his words the black and white lion smiled, happy that they wanted each other in the same way.
Bwana chuckled and purred feeling Gouta's nuzzles. "Good," Lifting his head he smiled at the sandy male. "I was afraid you were going to start a flood for a second there" Laughing he lifted a paw beginning to groom himself.

True, Gouta was the girl. Gouta was the woman. The bride. The lion's thoughts raced as the thought about their potential future together. Where would they live!? What would they eat!? What were his thoughts about cubs?! It wasn't like the two could have children together. Would they be able to find a female who'd give them those gifts?
Puzzled with all these questions running through his mind, Gouta flopped over and stuck his nose in the dirt. Heaving a sigh and making the dirt stir in little clouds.
"Say Bwana. Can males breed?" Gouta gave the larger lion a serious look. The sandy lion wasn't exactly sure if it was true or not.

Hearing his mate's sigh Bwana paused his grooming and looked down at the other male, an amused smile on his face. Hearing the rogue's question and noticing his serious look the expression on the black and white lion's face went from amused to thoughtful. He wasn't the smartest lion around but he had a grasp on basic lion habits and bodily functions and it only took him a moment to shake his head.
"We can have fun together," He smirked and gently bumped heads with Gouta remembering all the fun they've had. He gave the lion's ear an affectionate n** before lifting his head and being serious again. "but, we can't have cubs. Only girls can have cubs." He tilted his head slightly, a thought hitting him. "Why do you ask?" Did Gouta want cubs?

Gouta looked up at Bwana with curious gold eyes. Why can't only girls have cubs? He wanted to ask, but know that would be an even sillier question. Gouta longed to be a mommy someday.
"Of course we have fun" The sandy lion stated, winking at Bwana. "...but someday. It'd be cool to have kids. Offspring. Someone that can take care of us as we age."
If it wasn't obvious already, yes. Gouta did want cubs. But at this moment it seemed impossible. There weren't any girls around. Hell, Gouta had only met one girl before and she was so mean to him! That cheetah...what was her name again? Shani. After that experience, he never wanted to be around females again.
"I want babies." Gouta said, giving his lover a frown. "But nevertheless, I'm happy with what I have with you. Even if it is just our love."

Bwana grinned when Gouta said they had fun, the two lions had tons of fun. When eh went on to say he want cubs the black and white male blinked. A family? He wouldn't mind a family, he had given up on the idea of family when he fell in love with Gouta, two males just couldn't have cubs.
"I wouldn't mind a family," He laid down, his head next to the sandy male's. "But, we can't have cubs without a girl involved." He shifted, the side of his head pressed up against Gouta's, their manes combining to make one big black sandy mass.

Gouta thought hard about what Bwana had said. Girls. Girls...Gouta didn't like girls that much. But maybe Bwana liked them well enough? They had never discussed this before, Gouta just assumed that males were the only ones Bwana cared for.
"Know any girls?" Gouta asked, nudging his head against his. "Maybe there's a girl out there that wouldn't mind sharing her baby-making talents with us!"
The sandy lion couldn't help but chuckle at the comment he just made. Bwana would probably think he was crazy...crazier now.

Bwana thought about his lover's question. He knew two girls, he wasn't sure if they'd be willing to help them make a family.
"There's a cheetah named Shani I know, and a lioness named Lumusi....I don't know if they'd help us though." He shrugged as well as he could while lying down. "I suppose it couldn't hurt to ask them..."
