Simba & Nala’s Telepathic Hearts
I was about to head home from my best friend’s house. It’s only across the street and we had been studying for finals for hours. “Goodnight Simba”
“Goodnight Nala” Those are our nicknames for each other. Here’s where it began…
*9 years earlier*
“Mommy put it in!!! please!!” That’s me, when I was 5. My best friend, Nick, was 6. WE had just bought the movie The Lion King and couldn’t wait to watch it. My mom put the dvd in and we watched the whole movie. Not pausing it once! It was great!!! We loved it!
“I wanna be Simba!” Nick said
“Yeah, and I’m Nala. Because we’re best friends!!” I said. We started relaying the movie but as kids, not lions. While my mom and Nick’s mom were talking.
“You know, it makes me wonder what will happen when these to grow up. They are so close. And they woud be perfect together” My mother stated.
“Yeah, they could go to high school together. Watch each others backs and also we wouldn’t have to worry about other girls or boys they dated.” Denise laughed. “It would be a dream. No worries with those two.” My mom agreed as they turned to watch us play.
*present time*
Now, I’m fourteen and he is fifteen. We’re best friends, nothing more; though truthfully I’ve had a crush on him for the longest time. I just never got the time to tell him. He is always going out wit some girl. I said goodnight and started crossing the street to my house; these thoughts going through my mind and the memories of when I didn’t have to worry about crushing on your best friend.
The next day I got to school and went to my first class. We had this period for studying for the class’s final. I took at my study sheet. Not to study, it was only for looks. Nick and I studies enough last night and I was ready. No, this period is one period I have with nick. We’re always passing notes. I looked over towards him to find him passing notes with his new girlfriend. He always p*CENSORED* one to me right when the bell rings and it rand 3 minutes ago. I suddenly felt sick. It wasn’t physical sickness. No, it was heartbreak. I went to the office and called my mom, telling her I was sick. She cam and picked me up. When the intercom turned on and asked for me for check out, nick gave me a confused look. I ignored it and left. When I got home I ran to my room and cried myself to sleep. While I was sleeping I had a dream…
In my dream, Nick was holding my hand, leading me through this tall grass. I recognized it to be our old secret hideout. WE went there everyday when we were around the ages of 7 and 8. We haven’t been there in years. While we were there he kissed me. He just leaned over and kissed me. It was amazing! He told me he missed me and wanted me to be his girlfriend…
Then I woke up. I thought about my dream, wishing it was reality. Then I got u and changed, finding a note from my mom telling me she went back to work. I decided to take a walk. I ran outside and just started walking. I didn’t know where I was going. Just walking…and thinking. Thinking about Nick. No, not Nick…Simba. Because I liked Simba better than Nick. Not the lion Simba. The Nick simba. The old him. I wasn’t paying attention to wear I was going but when I looked up I found myself right outside our old secret hideout. I stood there for what felt like an hour, until I decided to go inside. I went in to find it…well…abandoned. We hadn’t been there in ages and it looked like no one else had either. I sat down in my usual spot and thought about all the good times we had. After about ten minutes I looked at my watch, realizing that school got out thirty minutes ago and Nick was probably at my door, knocking. That’s if he still cares anymore. I sat there for five more minutes, not wanting to go home. When suddenly, someone walked in. I turned around only to come face to face with Nick. “Julia” he whispered.
I couldn’t believe he was here. “How did you know I was here?” I asked.
“I don’t know.” He sat down, thinking hard. “After you checked out I kind of…felt…lonely. So I called my mom and told her I was sick. She came and checked me out. I went straight to bed, not knowing what else to do. I had a dream…a dream about this place. You led me here and, we kind of…hooked up I guess.” Nick stood up as I felt a look of shock spread across my face. “Julia, it felt so right. Just you and me…together…like Simba and Nala!” We both froze, gazing into each others eyes. We didn’t know what to do. It was like we exchanged dreams. No…I know what it was. It was telepathic hearts. Showing each other how we truly felt. Suddenly, he kissed me and I kissed him back. After we stopped h just held me, for the longest time. He was right, it did feel right...Just so...perfect. Like…a movie…with a happy ending. I was so happy. He confirmed to me that he broke up with his girlfriend. And how he realized that he always needed me. Nick. No…Simba. He’s mine and I’m his. Together, we’re just like Simba and Nala just with telepathic hearts. “Simba” I whispered. “Nala…I love you” he whispered back. “I love you too, Simba.”
ok. that was probably stupid but thanks for reading!!
