"Kovu.."

"Elizabeth? Yes?"

This can't be real|| Elizabeth, Kovu, Li

"Princess, help!" Kovu exclaimed, almost trying to punch her front door open. "I think I'm going mad! Princess, please!"

Kovu may have still been in shock from the very sight of seeing Li, his ex, in town, but hidden behind the infamous apple tree, Li's heart sunk as she spotted Kovu seeking refuge in the arms of another woman. Her plan to win him back was going to be much more difficult than she had originally thought.

She didn’t want to hide it from him - no….she did. She wanted to hide everything from him. Everything she’d done since she’d left, every single inch of skin on her body, every buried emotion that he unknowingly roused in her.

Love.

The word was sickening, now; nauseating. Hard to swallow, tasting like the bitter and acidic bile that touched her tongue too many times a day. She couldn’t remember the last time she said it - but she felt it, now. She felt it for the first time in years.

"Do you like it?" She asks, pushing aside his question, letting the word ‘dancer’ slip free from her tongue. He didn’t have to know that, either. She kept her hands tucked behind her back, collarbones and scapulae protruding from the thinness of her light, almost sheer blouse.

He understood it now. He understood why people settled, why love was overrated. It wasn't about it being weakness. It was about love being a sick fascination, an itch not to be scratched. Scratching it always led to more pain, pain that would never heal. 

Just be civil. She's just someone you knew. Someone you once knew, nothing else. 

He repeated those words to himself over and over again as he stared back at her. 

He hated the way she had such power over him. She always had. It wasn't even magic. It was the way she could smirk and he would do anything for her. It was the way they took enjoyment in irritating each other, and it was the way she could be cruel one moment and all his the next. All she had to do was say it, and he would go with her. It was sick. It was unhealthy. It wasn't going to happen again. 

I don't love you. 

"Of course," he muttered under his breath, rolling his eyes slightly– not answering his question. How typical.

                                                        –"It's fine. It pays the rent– y'know?"

the-mills-prodigy replied to your post “—Ž - Do you love me?”

A smirk rises to her deep purple-painted lips, the temptation of yet another question proving too strong..yet she would wait. Patience.. "Mm.." She purrs, approaching him and resting her palms against his chest. "I like it when you're frustrated."

Kovu groaned, rolling his eyes as his gaze fell to the floor for a moment. "Well, I don't like it," he huffed, crossing his arms over his chest. What was her deal? Why now? Why couldn't they go back to just know they loved each other without having to really say it?

◎ - Do you love me?

My muse will answer any question you ask them. Even if its secret.

"What do think?" he exclaimed, throwing his hands in the air. “Jesus! You’re all I think about. I see your face when I wake up. I see your face when I dream. But you push me away sometimes and I hate that. But, goddamnit, Princess, what do you think? I’m so in love with you I can’t even think like a normal goddamn person!"

MOST BEAUTIFUL PERSON AWARD! Once you are given this award, you are supposed to paste it in the ask of 8 people who deserve it. If you break the chain, nothing will happen, but it’s sweet to know someone thinks you’re beautiful inside and out. <3

Headcanon: Loss

Loss

Something he likes to pretend he handles well in his life.

In reality, loss is something he constantly fears. Or perhaps, he really fears feelings not being returned whether it is romantic or just the love of a family so when he finds these things he often fights it and leaves just when things are going well. He hates to stick around as things come crashing down because he doesn't know how to put things back together again so he's certain he'll just lose it all.
