Lila's POV

"This place is beautiful, thank you for letting me come" Orion tells me smiling. We were going to meet Sina and Carl near the water fall. Aunt Nala was looking after Taka until Mum returned. Kiara and Kovu were out practicing her hunting skills. I know it's quick introducing him to my sister and her mate, but I think I love him.

"I want you to met my sister and her mate, then maybe you can join our pride" I say smiling.

"You know I'm not good at taking orders" he reminds me.

"What if you were one of the two giving orders?" I ask.

"What are you saying?" he asks.

"I like you a lot Orion and think you maybe the one" I say looking into his eyes.

"I feel the same way" he states as we reached the water fall.

"Lila, I missed you" Sina says tackling me and we begin to play fight.

"Orion, is that you?" Carl asks.

"You've grown into a remarkable king Carl" Orion states smiling.

"You both know each other how?" I ask as I stop play fighting Sina.

"We're second cousins, I thought you'd died Orion" Carl explains. "Now look at you, with one of the most beautiful lionesses in the pride lands" he chuckles.

"You've done well yourself Carl" Orion states.

"We should introduce them to Kiara and Kovu" Sina suggests.

"How did you know Kovu was here?" I ask.

"Rafiki told me and he has something in mind for tonight, you guys up for a little fun and music?" she asks.

"Sure why not? We don't have anything else planned" Orion says shrugging.

"Hey Sina we still have time, why don't we go catch an antelope" I suggest. She agrees and we leave the boys to reconnect. We managed to catch an adult male and dragged it to the other two. "Dinner is served" I announced.

Once we'd eaten we search for Kiara and Kovu to find them star gazing. "Mind if we join?" Sina asks and they sit up. "Kovu you've grown since I last saw you" she states.

"Kiara, this is Orion" I say and he bows his head. We all end up laying on our backs pointing out shapes. "Hey look there's a bunny" I say pointing.

"Yeah, I see the fluffy tail" Kiara says giggling and Sina giggles along.

"Look at that one" Carl says pointing.

"It looks like two lions" Orion states.

"Yeah fighting for a scrap of meat, I've never done this before" Kovu states.

"Really?" Sina and I ask looking at him.

"My father and I used to do this all the time" Carl announces.

"Same here" Sina, Kiara and I states.

"He told us all the great kings of the past are up there" Kiara explains.

"Do you think Scar's up there?" Kovu asks then gets up walking away. Kiara follows him and soon Rafiki appears Sina says it's time for some fun. So we all run after Rafiki who was being followed already by Kiara and Kovu. "Where's he taking us?" Kovu asks as we all stop looking at the beautiful waterfall.

"Go to a special place in your heart, called Upendi" Rafiki tells us as he and two monkeys make us face each and link our mouths. We all end up on giant leaves with Rafiki behind Kiara and Kovu. While the other two monkeys are behind Sina and Carl along with Orion & I.

"There's a place where the crazy moon
Makes the monkeys sing and the baboons swoon
And the sultry scent of the lotus bloom
Will carry you awayWhere the hippos swing from the jungle vines
And the rhino rumba in a conga line
And the pink flamingos are intertwined
As the stars come out to play (we go down a minnie waterfall)
In Upendi
Where the passion fruit grows sweet
And it's so divine
That you lose your mind
As it sweeps you off your feet (Sina, Kiara, Carl and I eat a passion fruit)
In Upendi
Without a worry or a care
It just takes two
To make it true
Your heart will lead you there (the boys had pink hearts put on them and they remove them)
In Upendi
In UpendiYou better watch your step 'cause the path is steep
Better hold your breath cause the water's deep
It's a long way down over Lovers' Leap
But falling's half the fun! (we fall off the giant leaves onto a fountain of water)
In Upendi
Where the passion fruit grows sweet
And it's so divine
That you lose your mind
As it sweeps you off your feet 
In Upendi
Without a worry or a care
It just takes two
To make it true
Your heart will take you thereYou can beat the bush like there's no tomorrow
From Tanganyika to Kilimanjaro
But you'll find Upendi wherever you are
Oh, underneath the sun ("Upendi means love doesn't it?" Kiara asks)
Welcome Upendi
Where the passion fruit grows sweet
And it's so divine
That you lose your mind
As it sweeps you off your feet (we jump off the fountain into the pond)
In Upendi
Without a worry or a care
It just takes two
To make it trueWe'll take you there (we are going down a small stream after each having a fruit)
UpendiDown in Upendi
Way down
In Upendi!Down in Upendi
Way down
In Upendi!Down in Upendi
Way down
In Upendi!Down in Upendi
Way down
In Upendi!" Rafiki finishes singing as we floated down to the ground safely. We all walk back to pride rock singing the song laughing quietly. I lead Orion over to the cave my family and I used to use. Sina and Carl entered the den while Kiara said goodnight to Kovu.
