Author´s note:

HI! So first of all I want to say that I am so excited for this chapter because in my mind it seems so cool! Ok, besides that, well I don´t have, much to say besides the usual, I hope you enjoy it!

Oh yeah, this chapter is on a Friday, just so you know, it will make sense on future chapters. And also, some of you expect Po to beat up Nyuk, so SPOILER ALERT! Nyuk IS going to get… well, a lesson, but from someone else.

Chapter 9- Deserve better?

The next day, Po was feeling much better. He was with Tigress, Nyuk wasn´t going to take her away or anything like that and Tigress was with him. They were both walking hand in hand. Tigress was laughing at one joke that Po told her. She also felt better knowing that Po was doing ok and she was glad he knew that she only loved him. And that Nyuk was just a friend for her.

Tigress also thought Nyuk wasn´t dumb enough to ask her out knowing she had a boyfriend. And he didn´t seem like the kind of guy who would ruin her relationship or say something to her boyfriend in order for him to break up with her. At least that what she thought.

As Po and Tigress were walking to their fifth period class, (I will give a shout out to the person who knows which class is their 5 period! Hint, it was on my other story). They were both smiling. They both took their seats, Po had noticed that Nyuk was transferred into his class just yesterday, and somehow this time, it didn´t bother him. He was ok with it, he had gotten over his jealousy, or mostly he didn´t got jealous over little things. And like Tigress said, she just treated Nyuk as a friend and nothing more.

As they were both chatting on class, the teacher called for their attention to announced that they were allowed to work on their homework with partners, Po and Tigress looked at each other (like when you look at your friends) and nodded. But Nyuk already had an excuse to work with Tigress. He went over to the teacher and told him he didn´t understand, he knew that Tigress was the smartest girl in the class, so as he planned the teacher paired him up with Tigress….but what he didn´t plan is that Po was also going to be working with them.

Nyuk was frowning the while time. Po and Tigress were laughing throughout the class, trying to cheer Nyuk up, or at least said they tried. Nyuk just faked smiles at Tigress but when she turned around, he went back to the frown Po was familiar with. After the class ended, Nyuk didn´t accomplish anything of his plan, but he really needed to have another ´talk´ with Po, if he asked him, he would probably just said no. So he decided to wait until after school was over, so one) no one else could listen to their conversation, and two), so if his plan succeed then he had all weekend to go with Tigress and make her his girlfriend.

Minutes before 7 period, meaning almost at the end of school…

Tigress and Po were laughing. Tigress was teasing Po about the drawing he tried to make during his art class. Po was not like Tigress, who was very artistic, he was kind of the opposite, the best he could do was stick figures.

Po was going to Tigress locker, he already had his back-pack with him, so Tigress only needed to grab her stuff before walking back to her house with Po. They were both really excited for the weekend. Tigress was talking to Po as she was putting some books inside her back-pack and stuffing some other notebooks inside her locker. Po then remembered something.

"Hey. Meet you here in a couple of minutes, I forgot my book in 5 period" Po told her. Tigress chuckled knowing how Po always forgets his books.

"Sure, I will wait here. I still have to clean up my locker, so that will give me time" Tigress responded kindly. Po nodded and started heading got his classroom, where Nyuk was waiting for him. Nyuk was the one who purposely took Po´s book and set it back into his desk without anyone noticing.

Once Po got to the classroom, Nyuk was standing there with his book on his hands, a small evil smirk on his lips. Po frowned and took one step forward and crossed his arms.

"What do you want?" He said calmly but slightly annoyed.

"Oh, nothing, just wanted to talk" Nyuk replied, playing with the book in his hands. Po raised his brows suspiciously,

"What about?" Po asked.

"Well, do you think you are the perfect guy for Tigress?" Nyuk said with a usual tone.

"What do you mean by that?" Po questioned him.

"Oh you know, you are not exactly the typical jock Tigress deserves. And you don´t have muscles. And in my opinion, Tigress deserves someone better than... you." Nyuk said. Po got mad at this.

"Oh, and since when do you know what kind of guy Tigress likes" Po replied. Nyuk raised his hands as of trying to protect himself.

"No, no. I was just saying"

"You should think about it. Tigress is the captain of lots of clubs. She had won tons of awards. She is the smartest girl on school, and the prettiest one. And what are you? Does Tigress deserves someone like you?" Nyuk said, leaving Po thinking about that. He set his book on a desk near him and then exited the room.

Before fully leaving the classroom, he took a quick glance back where Po was, and smiled at the confused boy. Then he started heading over to where Tigress was.

With Tigress (and Nyuk)…

Tigress finished cleaning her locker, and was now pacing back and forth, waiting for Po.

"How long does it take a person to grab a book? Well, this is Po, so that is quite unpredictable" She told herself.

"Hello, good-looking" Tigress turned around to see who was calling her that, or if that person was even talking to her, since she was the only person standing in the hallway, she did it mostly for the first reason.

"Hi, Nyuk." She answered, not paying attention to his second comment.

"So what are you doing here, by yourself" He asked her. His eyes were looking all over Tigress and he had a smile on his face, knowing that his plan was going like he planned.

"I´m not by myself, at least not for long. I´m just waiting for Po" She explained.

"I can wait with you, sweetie" Nyuk said, taking one step closer to her. Tigress´s eyes widen, then she took one step backwards, keeping distance within them.

"Mmmm, please don´t call me that." She said.

"Why? If it´s true" He said, again attempting to get closer, but getting the same reaction from Tigress.

"Because I already have a boyfriend, so just don´t" She told him strictly.

"What if I took you out on a date?" He said, giving her a dreamy look.

"Sorry, I don´t cheat on my boyfriend" She said, and as she was going to explain something else, she was cut off,

"Tigress, I like you… a lot" Nyuk said, his tone was almost pleading. Tigress sighed.

"Nyuk, I like you… as a friend. I´m sorry." She said, she was looking into his brown chocolate eyes. Nyuk took a deep breath, and decided to take a risk. He quickly leaned forward, Tigress´s eyes widened, she had good reflexes so she quickly put her hand in front of her, stopping Nyuk from kissing her.

Nyuk leaned back again, looking again into her eyes. He had a small smile on his face, thinking that he was close.

"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!?" Tigress yelled at him.

Meanwhile with Po…

He was in the classroom, thinking about what Nyuk just said to him…

He is right, Tigress had done and accomplished lots of things. And I am a nothing in the school, I don´t play sports, I am not any kind of jock. I am not an artist like she is, and I am not a really smart person. She deserves someone better, someone like Nyuk, but nicer I guess.

Hold on, she loves just how I am. If not is like she said to me, she would have already broken up with me.

He smiled. He took his book and started heading to where Tigress was waiting for him. He still wanted to talk about that topic with Tigress, but right now he only wanted to be with her and hold her hand. He was walking, but when he got close to where Tigress was standing, he heard her talking with… Nyuk.

What are they talking about? He hid behind the wall, and started listening, he couldn´t quite make out what they were saying, but he heard some words.

Cheating, Boyfriend, sweetie

What is going on here!? He thought, he poke his head to see and his mouth dropped open, Nyuk was leaning to kiss Tigress!

He dropped his book and went away, tears forming in his eyes.

He was right! I knew it! Tigress was just too good to be true! Ughh! She is cheating on me! He stomped to his house, his heart broken.

With (A really upset) Tigress…

"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!?" She yelled at Nyuk, who was smiling.

"ANSWER ME!" She yelled, really upset. She was breathing heavily. Nyuk chuckled,

"You know, I thought you deserved better, someone like me, not Po" He said. Tigress was confused.

"Ok, that had nothing to do with this, Why did you try to kiss me, you knew I had a boyfriend!" She yelled not angry like she was before, still upset but now also confused.

"Well, are you sure you have a boyfriend? And even if you do, I still love you"

"I DO have a boyfriend, and I don´t care if you love me, I already have someone I love and that loves me back, you are not making sense!" She said, now pacing back and forth. Nyuk was enjoying this, he was looking at Tigress with a seductive grin.

"Oh, you mean that guy with those green eyes? Yeah, he might not love you" Nyuk said casually.

"What do you mean!?" Tigress turned around, staring at him with her eyes full of fury. She was getting impatient.

Nyuk was just leaning into the wall, not paying attention to her question, and not bothering to answering her. Tigress was reaching past her point. She took a deep breath, and thought that if she wasn´t going to get answers by talking, she would get them by force, she was now willing to use her Kung Fu skills with him if it would get her answers. (This is the part most of you have been waiting to happen!)

She took a step closer to him, he looked up at her and smiled at first,

"So you decided you do want to kiss me?" he said. But then his grin wore off, he saw her eyes, he saw that it was no longer the same Tigress. She took him by his shirt and pushed him against the wall. She put her face close to his, she raised her arm, threating to punch him,

"I WANT ANSWERS AND I WANT THEM NOW!" She demanded, still holding him by his neck collar of his shirt. Nyuk was impressed by her strength. She seemed thin, but she had an unbelievable strength. You could hear a loud gulp coming from Nyuk.

"WHAT DID YOU TOLD HIM!?" She screamed. She was glad that the school was empty, if not, she would have gotten detention.

"I-I-I" Nyuk looked away, but this only made Tigress pushed him against the wall harder. Nyuk was stuttering but he managed to explain the whole thing to Tigress, and it all made sense. Tigress was shocked and even more upset with him.

"How could you tell him that!?" Tigress was upset, but she was worried and part of her was afraid of what was going to happen with Po.

"You know, it doesn´t really matter, he thinks you are cheating on him" Nyuk said nervously.

"It does matter! And why would he think that?" Tigress said, her body telling her to punch him in the face.

"Because he saw me trying to kiss you" Nyuk replied. Suddenly Tigress couldn´t feel her legs anymore. Her whole world was spinning and she wanted it to stop. She wanted to go to Po´s arms and make sure everything was going to be all right. She wanted to hold his hands, but she couldn´t, he wasn´t here to tell her to calm down, to breathe in and out, and to assure her everything was going to be fine. She focused back into what was happening, she knew she had to fix things with Po, but there was something she had to do first.

She let go of Nyuk´s collar, but she was still standing in front of him. She went near him, and then raised her arms and punch him across his face.

"THAT´S FOR WHAT YOU TOLD HIM!" Then she took a step back and then raised her arm, and slapped him across his face.

"AND THAT´S FOR TRYING TO KISS ME!" She said, then stormed out of there, towards Po´s house. Nyuk was now on the floor, rubbing his cheek, which was all read.

As Tigress was heading out, she saw the book he had forgotten, she picked it up and then smiled at it. She then continued walking, now grabbing her necklace, which she was still wearing, and opened it to see the photo. She sighed, she needed reassurance that everything was going to be work out well. And right now, the photo gave her enough.

TiPo Me: NOOOOO! You have to continue it! I NEED to read more!

Normal Me: Sorry, that´s it for this chapter.

TiPo Me: *pushed me over, takes over computer and starts typing*

Normal Me: *on the floor* Oh well.

Ok, I hoped you like it! I know some of you wanted to punch or kick or hit Nyuk, I let Tigress take over that, hopefully she did a good job (I think she did). Anyway, I hoped you enjoyed the story so far, this has been the longest chapter I think! Also thanks for your reviews. And I will be updating soon since I don´t have school this Monday and Tuesday! (Also as you read before, my TiPo self already got a head start on the next chapter).

Oh, and in this chapter I told you guys that if you remembered what the fifth period of Tigress and Po was, then you will get a shout-out, and you will. SO is you remember just put the number 5 and an equal sign then the class (Example: 5= class) in your review. If I see lots of people get it, I will only do a shout-out to the first 4 people!

That´s it for now. Thanks and leave your reviews! (Help me get 4 more!)

-Peace out
