Hi everyone, first off I will thank all of those who reviewed, favorite, followed and clicked on this story. I'm grateful to all of you.
P.s: i got this idea from a one Shot. I dont remember the name, but in that po asked tigress to kiss him but tigress told him to wait. I just formatted the situation, style and tigress's reason. That's all I got to say.
Chapter two:
"deserve part 1 "
Po had his back towards the peach tree as he stared ahead in the valley beyond. The thick layers of white clouds were hiding the stars. the valley was filled with the sound of humming as mothers sang their children to asleep. The cold breeze could make anyone shiver, and someone sensible would prefer to be in his or her home with a hot cup of coffee whether then being outside. Po turned his head around to see tigress. Her eyes were closed,as the moon light made her face calm and peaceful, less sullen. Her features soften. Till now the moon was doing a wonderful job : making the most beautiful women more beautiful. She sat, legs crossed and was too listening to the sweet sound which roamed around here and there.
She opened the corner of her eyes as she sensed him staring. " what?" she asked raising an eyebrow."nothing" po replied. after a pause " you look beautiful". Tigress smirked,"this is the fifth time tonight, you said that"
" what! its not my fault you look so beautiful" po laughed " What do you want me to do as a thanks?"
"a kiss" Po said as a matter of fact tone. And time stood still. Tigress eyes widen as she Realized what he had said. She looked away uncomfortable. Po understood and regretted " sorry, I didn't mean to make you uneasy".
"oh, it's ok. Actually i was expecting you to say that for a while" tigress mumbled. Po looked at her, confuse he asked " why?".
" it's been a year since we are in a relationship right?"." yeah" po replied.
" so what kind of girl friend doesn't kiss her boy friend?" tigress said "no one except me". Sighing, She looked down, her ember eyes fixed at the ground. Po opened his mouth but quickly closed it as tigress looked up, " I just don't like this kissing stuff, isn't there anything else two people who love can do?" she asked.
" yes, like how we spend our time" po replied. Tigress smiled, he was understanding or trying to. "exactly!" she shouted but intensely controled her voice level as she continued " exactly, because I love you more then I could ever do if we would have just spend our time kissing". Po nodded, and motioned her to continue. " it might sound weird but I.. I just don't feel to kiss, I want us to be different po, different then the others. Others who spend most of their time kissing. But then break up on small things that you and I don't even count as issues. Their love isn't true, our love is". Po smiled a sad and a happy one. Sad because tigress was in no hurry to meet her lips with his, but happy that tigress considered his love, their love true. " continue" he said.
She nodded " we sit together for hours. Joke, laugh, argue, discuss our problems, our worries, talk about countless things, meditate and sometimes hug because of that we understand each other, we both know what the other is thinking, if one of us is upset. And things like that"after a pause, tigress added " and besides, I think kissing continuously reduces its value. I'd saved our first kiss for a special moment po, a moment that we would never forget no matter what. Till then we just have to wait, we just have to be patient. We are on the same page right?"
" yes, but I think you are a few lines ahead" po said as he rubbed the back of his neck. Tigress chuckled. " you think I'm pretty weird, don't you?"
" yeah, you are" po said. A small grin appeared on his face " but you know, I kinda love that weird part of yours"
Tigress smiled. " I really love you" she whispered." I love you too" he answered, his blood was also racing towards his face. This never gets old! He excitedly thought. He felt a little weight in his side pocket. His eyes widen as he remembered the promise he made to him self before inviting tigress to meditate with him. "hey tigress".
"Um?".
" I.. I" po stopped. He didn't knew whether he should continue or not. But decided that he really, really need to ask her. Taking a deep breath he continued. " I got something for you".
" okay"
Po took the small box out. And held it in front of tigress. The box was small but big enough to keep a necklace, it was white, pure white in colour and was beautifully decorated with glitters. It was pretty decent and appealing.
" what is this?" tigress asked as she took it and proceeded to open it only to be stopped by po. " wait, first I want to ask you a few questions" he said nervously. Tigress nodded.
" tigress do you love me?"
" yes"
" how long do you think we both can last together? Don't get any wrong ideas"
" I.. I don't really know. But I don't want us to be apart. If it ever comes to that , you or I will just slap each other to bring us back to our senses"
" that's good, I was thinking the same thing. Now for the third question. How long do you think forever is?"
"why are you even asking me that? Anyway I guess it's pretty long"
Po took a deep breath. No turning back now. He thought before asking the final question. " would you mind spending it with me as your husband?"
Tigress was shocked. She was not expecting him to propose her not now to be exact. " what?" she whispered in disbelief.
" you can open the box now". With out any farther due, tigress opened the for box to find a small, beautiful diamond ring. She looked at him.
" you...you want me to be your wife?" she whispered.
" why not? You love me, i love you. As you said right now we both understand each other like no other couple could. So why wait any more?" he answered. Slowly po took her paw in his." tigress I love you. Love you enough to know that your the one for me."
Tigress eyed him for a moment until a small piece of memory flowed in her mind. " po, if you marry me. You'll lose your title, you won't be the dragon warrior" she sadly said.
" I know, being the dragon warrior was the greatest thing that ever happened to me. Because of that china respects me. Because of that I will be remembered in history. Because of that I had a cool master like shifu, cool friends, I had you. But tigress your worth it. I can imagine our life. And all I can see is happiness. You, me our future life is worth it"
Tigress looked away, unsure. "tigress what's wrong?" he asked but got no reply. " it's okay" he said " I understand if your saying no".
Tigress looked at him and tighten the grip on his paw. " no po, I know I love you enough to spend forever with. I want nothing more then to become your wife. In the end i know what my answer is but po, i.. I just need some time to think, to think about my answer"
Po smiled. Tigress was sure but she was unsure. All he had to do was be patient and in the end she will be his. " take all the time you need".
Tigress smiled, " you understand right? You'll wait for me?" she asked.
" the answer to both of your questions is yes" po replied.
" thank you " tigress whispered. And slowly she wrapped her arms around his neck and rested her head on his chest. Po wrapped his arms around her in a reflex.
They stayed in the same position for a while. Until a yawn escaped from po's lips. Chuckling, tigress declared that the time has come to call it a night. Saying goodbyes to one another the two unique loves proceeded towards their beds. Sleep found its way through the thoughts for one of them. While the other's ember eyes were recalling what had happened earlier. She still couldn't sleep. She needed to think. Going back to the peach tree was out of the question so instead tigress climbed her way to the roof only to meet shifu.
Xxxxxxx
Thats it. I think tigress isn't the type of girl who'd like to kiss. And this is the best reason i could think of. If Dreamworks ever decides to make po and tigress a couple, I think there won't be many kisses in the movie. Please, please, please, please, please, please, please review. You guys know how much they mean. The next chapter will be a father/ daughter one.
