Eyes At The Peach Tree
Fiery orange eyes met green laid back ones. The male was staring at the illuminated orange, deciding if whether or not now was a good time to speak. And with the quiet, calming sounds beside the peach tree, now seemed like a perfect time then ever.
However, fiery orange eyes snapped shut and the female tilted her direction just enough to be facing the tree beside them. Leaves drifted at their sides as Po took in a deep breath.
"I hope It will hold its ground for a while longer." And just like that, those orange eyes returned to him. Her paw on the tree, the tiger offered the panda a weak smile.
"Same." He put his paw beside her, as a few more petals fell. "It's been around.. for, like, ever. I can't imagine.."
For over a year now, Po knew he loved his best friend. How couldn't he? Tigress was beautiful, strong, intelligent, and had a good heart. But at the same time, so much more. They had bonded so much over the years from Gongman City to his families village. He valued the time he spent with her, even if -just like this case- was to honor the dying peach tree.
Orange met green and she soon gave him a swift nod. Po scooted closer, using his free hand to pat her shoulder.
A/N : This was a request. They wanted a short drabble focusing on Po and Tigress' eye colors, well they were doing something. I figured It needed to be something holding some significant, so I thought sitting around the dying peach tree would play into that. It's a little too short for my liking, but I'm hoping to roll out some new and longer oneshots soon.
