One day Po and Tigress were in the training room, there was no one else around, they were all doing some other training or chores. Po didn't like the awkward feeling he was getting from being around tigress, Mantis had ticked her off today and she wasn't letting it go, so he decided after training he would try and cheer her up.
About an hour later Tigress left to go to the peach tree, so Po followed her, "hey Tigress, I noticed you weren't in the best of moods today, and I probably shouldn't be bothering you right now, but I thought maybe I could cheer you up, so, would you like to come hang with me, maybe," Po said with a shy smile "Tigress didn't look at him but replied "if I was to, as you say, hang with you, how could you possibly lighten my mood?"
"well I dunno, our training is done and its almost lunch, maybe we could swing by my dads noodle shop and grab something, maybe just take a walk and talk?" Tigress sighed but complied, so she followed Po as he led the way to the noodle shop.
At the shop everyone stared and whispered, because in the past they had never seen one of the furious five just walk into the village casually. So Po led Tigress to a seat and pulled out a chair for her, she sat and Po started to talk "so, before Shifu adopted you, did you ever have an interest in kung fu?" "Not really, I did always like the idea of being a hero instead of an enemy, but I was always afraid of hurting anyone and becoming more hated around that place" Tigress answered.
"Ah, I see, so you enj-"Po was cut off by his dad coming in and interrupting their conversation with a "oooh, master Tigress!, Po!, it's so nice to see you've made new friends my son!, it's such an honour to have one of the furious five in my restaurant!"
All Po could do is hide his face in his hands a say "daaaaaad!" "Tigress chuckled and said "thank you, its always nice to have a compliment, Po brought me down here because I wasn't having such a good day, and he succeeded in his self assigned mission to cheer me up, I never thought he could, but your son is full of surprises"
"oh, well I'm happy to hear your back in a nice mood again, Po you make sure she stays happy, and all the other masters to, I will not stand for you not helping out a friend in need " "I know dad, can we talk alone now please!" Po said while holding his head up with his hand and arm resting on the table, giving his dad an annoyed look.
"alright son I will let you get back to your date now, good bye my dear" Mr. ping said while waving at Tigress and leaving "it not a date!" Po called after him, Tigress giggled and said "well, thanks for trying to boost my mood Po, it really worked, but its time to go back to the palace before Shifu gets worried" before she left she got up, walked around the table and kissed him on the cheek, and surprisingly no one noticed, then she left and all Po could do was site there dumbfounded while Tigress left the premises, when she was gone Po uttered a silent "yes!" and began his trek back up to the palace.
I know this was a short story but please, please, REVIEW!
