Chapter 5: Boyfriend and Girlfriend and Permission

It was the Monday after the date, Tigress was just waking up. She was still wearing the necklace Po gave her. She smiled as the memory of him and the date came flooding back into her mind. She checked her phone,

Oh Gosh! I am going to be late if I´m not ready in 10minutes!

She wasn´t going to be late for school, but she usually arrived to Po´s house at a certain time, and Po knew that. Tigress quickly went to her closet and took out a shirt and jeans. She quickly changed into them and sprayed some perfume on her, since she didn´t have time to take a bath. She quickly brushed her hair. She looked into the mirror and… she was a mess, her hair decided it wanted to get puffy, so it did. Her clothes were so wrinkled, and not to mention her face, it was kind of dirty. She sigh and her reflection, thinking that if Po had met her this way, he would probably have completely ignored her.

She took her backpack from her room and started heading to Po´s house, running all the way there, which only made her hair get even messier.

With Po…

He had just woken up, and unlike Tigress, he had enough time to get ready. He went to get his clothes which took less than 5 seconds. Then he went to take a shower.

After that, he went downstairs, where his dad was already cooking breakfast. However, he saw something weird, there were 3 plates, and there were only 2 of them.

"Dad, is someone else joining us?" Po asked curiously. Mr. Ping turned around and went over to hug his son, then he went back to cooking.

"Well, I just decided to make breakfast just in case your girlfriend, I mean, friend, wants to join us." He said as he was chopping some vegetables. Po was blushing and was about to replied to that comment when he heard someone know on their door. He went over to open it, and when he did, he saw Tigress, he immediately smiled at the sight of her. Even when her hair was messy, she still look cute, maybe even more.

"Hi, sorry about looking really… messy" She said, getting inside his house because Po motioned her to do so.

"It´s ok. I think you look beautiful as always, maybe even more" He said. Tigress smirked. Mr. Ping went over to see who had entered and a huge smile appeared on his face as he saw that it was Tigress.

"Oh, Hello! Come in, come in" Mr. Ping said.

"I actually cooked breakfast if you want to join us" He said, leading the way to the kitchen, Po was going to tell his dad that she already had breakfast, but Tigress talked first,

"Thanks, I would love to" Then she started walking behind him. Po grabbed hold of her hand and gave her a suspicious look.

"I didn´t have breakfast and I am really hungry" She whispered. Po nodded.

"Oh, and have you told your dad, that you know, we are a couple?" Tigress asked, she wanted to make sure it was ok by him. Po completely forgot about that, and honestly, he thought it would be awkward to tell his dad.

"I, actually, haven´t" He stuttered. Tigress looked at him with her serious eyes,

"Fine, we´ll tell him at breakfast" She said, now taking at seat over at the table. Mr. Ping served her some omelets that were still warm, Tigress could smell the spices of the omelet and it smelled really good,

This is probably why Po is a good chef, his dad also cooks.

After Po and Mr. Ping took their seat they all started eating and having a conversation. Tigress was enjoying herself, she never actually had a father figure, or at least one that held a conversation with her and laughed with her. And she certainly never had meals like this.

Po on the other hand, was feeling really nervous, his stomach was twisting, he looked over at his dad and then at Tigress, thinking when or how will he even bring up the fact that Tigress is his girlfriend. He was even more nervous when he was thinking of his father´s response.

Tigress look at the clock and it was almost time to go, she looked over at Po and then at his dad. She cleared her throat to get their attention. Which worked, they were both now looking at her. Mr. Ping was curious to know what she was going to say, but Po knew exactly what it was.

"So, Po had something to tell you" Then she turned to Po, so he could continue. Po shifted his eyes, and then look down at his plate then at his dad, who was smiling and nodding his head as to motion him to continue.

"Well, I... She…Uhh" He managed to stuttered. Tigress rolled her eyes, and then look directly at Mr. Ping´s eyes.

"What he is trying to say is that, well, we are, kind of, dating, and we wanted to make sure that it was ok with you" She said, letting a small shade of red come to her cheeks. Mr. Ping quickly stood up with a big smile on his face,

"I knew it! I knew it!" He muttered, then he went over to Tigress´s side and to Po´s side, basically getting in between them,

"Yes, you have my permission to date!" Tigress smiled, and Po also did, he didn´t feel nervous anymore, instead he was filled by excitement and happiness.

"Thank you very much" She said, still trying to be polite. Po and Tigress stood up,

"However, if you hurt my son," Mr. Ping said in a serious tone, which was the first time Tigress heard him like that, "Don´t worry sir, I would never hurt him" Tigress cut him off, the she looked at Po and let out a chuckle. Po got a hold of her hand, and they both took their back-packs and started to walk towards the door.

"Thanks Mr. Ping, we would love to stay and chat, but we are going to be late for school!" Tigress said before they left,

"Sure, my pleasure, oh and you can call me dad!" Mr. Ping said enthusiastically. Tigress chuckled, and Po was blushing at his dad´s comment.

"Thanks, but I think I will stick to Mr. Ping" She said, and before his dad had a chance to say something else, Po took her hand and lead her outside,

"Bye dad!" was the last thing his dad could hear. Mr. Ping smiled and went inside to the kitchen to clean the dishes, thinking that Tigress was the perfect girl for his son.

With Tigress and Po…

Tigress was still holding his hand. Po was wearing a smile in his face.

"See that wasn´t so bad was it?" Tigress told Po, who just smiled shyly at her.

"No, you are right, it wasn´t" Po said, knowing how Tigress was almost always right about stuff, in general.

She smiled, once they got to the school, they went to their lockers, and took out their binders. They started walking together to their next class.

"Now, we just need to tell Shifu" Tigress said, much less enthusiastic.

"Oh, you mean your dad" Po said, his tone also a little bit shaky.

"Yeah…" She answered in a sad tone, that only Po could notice, he had to admit, she was good at hiding her emotions, but he knew her too well to know when she was hiding something.

As they were walking to their first period, they both had one question in their minds,

What will Shifu say?

TiPo Me: WHAT!? NO, you can´t leave it like that!

Normal me: (Sigh) you will just have to wait ´till next chapter.

Well, that´s it for this chapter! I love to leave it in suspense! (Of course I hate it when it takes too long to update, because like Tigress, I HATE to wait). Anyway, thanks for your reviews and I am glad you are liking the story so far! I will update soon, in about 1-2 days. Ok, so I guess this is good bye until next time!

Oh, and leave your reviews! (Let´s try to do another 5!)
