I'm back with another chapter! Yay! You know the saying: "A New Broom Sweeps Clean"? Yeah, that's kind of the situation that I'm in right now. Got into Fanfiction, do Fanfiction. You don't? Aw, that's a shame.
Thanks for the reviews, you guys (I really wasn't expecting any in the next 24 hours)! I have a problem with stage fright, really. It's something about me. I also tend to aim my goals too low, I'm an eccentric person in real life.
Now, I'm going to answer a question before it's even asked.
Yes, this story was inspired by multiple others. Though, what I plan on doing is making some lesser-known pairings more well-known. I've hinted at that in the last chapter.
Anyways, back on point. This chapter will be, once again, a bad one, considering I'm pretty new in this field. Sorry, I'll try my best to improve every chapter.
This one will have to rely on my creativity a lot, though. Considering it is a very unpopular ship. I've never seen in anywhere apart from two stories. But I'm doing it, so it's going to be in three stories now! Yay!
It's Suki and Guy Diamond.
Yep.
Before we start, I'm going to be telling you that this is a weird and strange chapter. Sad.
I actually have this strange headcanon that Guy Diamond stops speaking in his auto-tune voice when he's being serious. I mean, when he was shooting glitter at that crocodile thing, "Eat glitter" technically was auto-tune-ish, but it didn't really sound like it to me. Also, if I had him speaking in auto-tune for this whole fanfiction, it would sound weird for the most part. It would make zero sense anyway considering he's a quiet character. I mean, you can still imagine him speaking as so, but... you know what? This is boring.
Okay, let's just get to the point here. Reviews and criticism are highly appreciated. Warning: Story might be clichéd. Hope you enjoy it anyway!
Disclaimer: I don't and never will own DreamWorks Animated's movie Trolls. It's sad, but true. The truth hurts.
Chapter (II): Love Makes Life Wonderful
"What if she doesn't like me?"
"What if she doesn't think of me the same way?"
"What if she rejects me?"
"What if... she's already in love with somebody else?"
Guy Diamond sighed. It's two in the morning and he hasn't had any sleep yet. At all. At first he thought it was just insomnia, but then he realised, it was something much, much more different.
He was in love.
With the famous DJ herself.
He's not really a romantic troll. Sure, he understands that between Branch and Queen Poppy was true love, but he never really understood how it happens. Some say it's just like magic...
While others say it's like hard work.
That second saying worried him. How hard will he have to work in order to get Suki to fall for him? Like him? Or even just think differently about him?
Negative thoughts were filling his brain, he was just imagining the words she'll say if he attempted to confess.
"I'm sorry, Guy. I'm... not really ready for a relationship with anyone yet."
"I'm sorry, Guy. I... already have a boyfriend."
"I'm sorry, Guy. I can't do this with someone like you."
"I'm sorry, Guy..."
The next day, Guy woke up at 12 o' clock. He sighed as everyone else would already be awake an hour earlier. He went into the bathroom to wash away his drowsiness before eating that leftover pizza from yesterday. He headed outside, many trolls looking at him, dazed and confused as to why a troll would be leaving their pod at one in the afternoon. He planned to meet Cooper for a game of chess, maybe watch a movie or two after that. Have a great time together, like the best friends that they are. Maybe they can watch Trek, maybe Trollzen, hey, how about Trolltopia? Ooh, maybe they can see-
"Ow!"
Guy wasn't looking where he was going, and accidentally bumped into Suki. Seeing her smile put one on his face, but made him feel sad as the negative thoughts flew into and out of his head again.
"Hey, Guy. What are ya up to today?"
"Oh, nothing much. I was just going to Cooper's to go out for a movie or something."
"Oh, I know which one you should get the tickets to. Try Troana. It's about an adventurous teenager that sails out on a daring mission to save her people. It's really awesome. I've watched it before and I loved it!" Troana, huh?
"I've heard of that one before, but I've never really had the chance to watch it. You wanna tag along?"
"Sorry, Guy, but I have to practice for the concert tonight."
"Concert?" The silver troll was confused. There weren't any concerts in the village for months!
"Yeah, don't you know? It's to celebrate one year since bergens and trolls made peace with each other."
Guy thought about it for a moment before realising what the date was. He was a really forgetful troll anyway.
"Well, that's a shame."
"Sure is. Maybe I can come tomorrow?"
"Sweet! I have to go now. Good luck with the concert!" Guy ran off enthusiastically, yet internally slowly.
"See ya, Guy! Hope you can make it!"
It really was a shame Suki couldn't come to the movie. Guy Diamond really wanted to spend more time with her. The mere thought of that made him blush a bright red, very obvious under his silver skin.
Finally, after what seemed to be just 2 seconds of walking, he reached Cooper's pod.
"Hey, Cooper. I was bored, so I decided to come over and do something with you. You have any ideas?"
When he actually saw Cooper's face, he was a bit shocked. His face had 'I know what you did' written all over it.
"Umm, Cooper? You okay, buddy?" Cooper's face showed that he was going to commit a crime.
"Do you like Suki?"
Guy's face turned into a ripe tomato in an instant. He knew that face had something suspicious written on it!
"U-umm, no, I don't."
"You like her."
"Y-y-you don't have any evidence!" He started stuttering. Stuttering means bad.
"You're blushing, you were blushing when you talked to her, you were blushing when you bumped into her, you blush every single time we talk about Suki!"
Guy sighed in defeat. There was no point hiding it in now. He was busted.
"Okay, maybe I do have a crush on her, but please, don't tell her. I'm begging you!"
"Of course I won't tell her! I'm not an evil person!"
"Phew," all the stress was suddenly gone.
"So, you want to go out for a movie or something?" He was thinking of watching Trolltopia first, them watching Troana.
"Nope."
"Grea... Nope!? What do you mean 'nope'!?"
"GD, my man, we are going to spend this whole day giving you a lesson on how to get a girl."
All of Guy's blood rushed to his skin. It's almost as if Cooper dumped a can, no, a barrel, still not enough, a mountain, yeah, a mountain of red paint onto him. You can barely tell he has silver skin at this point.
"I... fine. I do need someone to ask help from anyways."
"Good! Let's start!"
"One, always be yourself. Don't act around. From what I know, girls don't like people that have no real life. It doesn't matter if you're ugly or stupid, which you are neither, so you passed that. Anyways, be proud of yourself. It doesn't matter what other people think. Remember that guy who called you stupid because you were shiny?"
"Yeah, kind of."
"Yeah! Don't let that affect you. It's your mind. Not theirs."
Guy knew this was helpful, but it was really boring. I mean, if he wanted to win Suki's heart, he'd had to listen, but it was just... boring.
"Two, make her your main priority."
Priority. He hated that word. He was pretty much a carefree troll, so the word never really came to his mind.
"Girls don't like guys that don't care about them. If you want to get a girl to like you, you have to care for them. Let's say, a girl fell down and hurt herself. Are you going to pick her up or just leave her there?"
"Pick them up, of course! I'm not a heartless person!"
"What if the girl was Suki?" Cooper teased.
"I... s-shut up!"
"Just kidding, buddy. But seriously. That'll be one of the things you'll have to do."
Guy sighed once more. He knew this was going to be a long and boring lecture.
"Three..."
After a long and admittedly boring day, Guy finally learned what it takes to be the perfect man. (*)
"Hey, thanks for the lesson, Cooper."
"No problem! I hope I helped."
"Yeah, but it was kind of-"
"Boring? I know. But it's just what happens for the best."
Guy wasn't sure how he managed it, but Cooper suddenly seemed like a wizard of some sort. He never actually expected the reddish-colored troll to be so smart!
After a bit of walking, the duo saw Suki talking to Queen Poppy.
"C'mon, she's right there. Go and talk to her. Remember rule number eleven?"
"Make the first move?"
"Yep! Now, go! Good luck, buddy!"
Guy walked towards the two girls. When they noticed him, Suki gave him a wave.
"What up, Guy? How was the movie?"
Guy Diamond just realised that he didn't go to the movies at all. He just decided to make a small white lie... Wait, that's not the right thing to do!
"Well, umm, we actually never got to go to the movies."
"Look at the bright side. At least we can enjoy it together when we have the chance."
"Yeah... together... urgh, I mean, yeah! That'll be way more fun!" The nervousness was getting to his head.
Poppy noticed Guy's blush and immediately knew what was going on. She looked at Cooper and saw an 'I know' face. Now all that's left is to know if she would accept him.
"So, when is the concert starting?"
"In an hour. It's the same place where we had that party before Chef attacked us last year."
"Cool! See you there!"
"See ya!"
Guy left the scene right after that, rushing to the venue where the concert will be held.
"So, you're going to confess to him tonight?"
"Yeah, I'm a bit envious of you and Branch. I hope it works out for us too!"
"Not sure about that, you're a bit chubby." (**)
"Enough, Cooper." They all chuckled. Who knew that both of them actually had feelings bottled up for each other?
Literally everyone.
Meanwhile, at the venue, pretty much the whole village was there. If you'd look up from above, all you'd see was just colorful dots of fluff. There was noise everywhere, mostly from the excited and optimistic trolls that just can't wait for the concert to start. The bergens of Bergentown were gathered by the tree as well, eagerly anticipated for the show to begin.
When the clock struck ten, lights started emerging from the "stage", followed by a bit of smoke and beats starting to sound.
"Are you guys ready to get this show on the road?"
The crowd went wild with 'woo'-ing and 'hoo'-ing. Followed by oddly synchronised 'yes's'.
"Then let's start this, yo!"
For about an hour, trolls and bergens were dancing to the beat, happily celebrating their first year of no directly assaulting each other.
For the next hour, plates of delicacies and bowls of juice and fruit punch were handed out to both bergens and trolls, excitedly feasting on the meal before them. It was about twenty kilograms of food and twenty five litres of drinks. Talk about a meal.
When it was half past twelve, a voice came from the speakers once more.
"Alright, everybody! Now, we've got a special song, err, lyric, err, theme coming up next to celebrate 365 days of peace between bergens and trolls that have been at 'war' for the past century! Let's hit it!"
Music started playing and Branch came out of the smoke, dressed in a special outfit, both hands holding a microphone.
"Stand together like we're rocks in a wall
Growing stronger everyday, even more
Stand together in the eye of the storm
And show the whole world who we are
Oh..."
Soon enough, Queen Poppy herself joined to sing with Branch.
"Keep on walking to the sound of the drums
Feel the fire run through our lungs
Find our treasure in the light of the sun
And show the whole world who we are
Oh..."
With that, the music stopped. The couple gave a bow before walking back behind the "stage" that was covered in leaves.
Applause came from the audience immediately.
"Alright! Now, we've actually got a special song from DJ Suki herself, dedicated to her best friend, Guy Diamond!"
The crowd started cheering so loud, it literally sounded like someone shouted through ten megaphones at once.
"Here we go!"
Guy Diamond was flustered and his cheeks were flushed with red. The crowd looked at him as if they caught him doing something wrong red-handed, in this case, red-faced.
Suki walked onto the "stage", blushing extremely hard, not noticeable at all under her red skin. She turned on the microphone and started singing with a wonderful voice.
"Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you?"
Guy was shocked. Suki had a crush on him all this time? If he'd known earlier, he wouldn't have been under so much pressure! Well, the truth was revealed. It's out. Her secret, at least.
"Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand,
Take my whole life, too
For I can't help falling in love with you."
As Guy kept on listening, he noticed her voice was more beautiful than ever. (***) He heard a few voices from the crowd, eventually starting to sing along with Suki. He did so as well, not taking the fact that his auto-tune voice will be more noticeable than the other ordinary ones into consideration.
"Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand,
Take my whole life, too
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you."
The song ended, and so did the voices. The next thing Suki said had the greatest impact on Guy's life (as of right now).
"Guy Diamond..."
"I love you. Will you be my... boyfriend?"
The crowd started sounding like that certain TrollTuber (****) that screamed songs for comedy purposes. They were cheering for the start of this beautiful relationship. The one between trolls and bergens, and the one between Guy Diamond and Suki.
Guy ran up the stage immediately to answer that very question.
"S-Suki, I-I don't know w-what to say..."
His face was completely red right now, even more than ripe tomatoes. His blood was starting to betray him.
"It's okay, Guy. I know you don't have any feelings for me," she started walking back and behind the leaves, tears forming in her eyes.
"N-no! Wait!"
Suki turned around to meet Guy's lips. This was their first kiss, causing her to open her eyes in shock. Suki's lips were softer than a pillow, sweeter than candy. The perfume she applied was fragrant and delicate, tempting Guy to just lick it off of her face. Suki wrapped her arms around GD, deepening the kiss even more. Sadly, they weren't able to lock lips forever, as their bodies were being jerks to them, begging for air.
"I love you, Suki. I always have."
"I love you, too, GD."
It's a good thing they were "backstage". Public Displays of Affection are probably going to make the crowd lose their appetite (There was still food!).
After the concert, Suki decided to sleep with Guy Diamond for a night. She didn't mind the fact that he was naked. It never bothered her, really.
Finally, the clock struck three.
"I think we better sleep, Sooks. Good night."
"Good night, GD. Love ya," she said, giggling at the new nickname.
"Love ya too."
As he drifted off to sleep, he realised that life wasn't beautiful on its own. It's love that make it wonderful.
Yes! 5 or 6 hours were spent on this chapter. It's finally done! Yay!
This is probably the first thing that's ever been dedicated to this ship, so... yay! Correct me if I'm wrong, though.
Yeah, I think that's probably going to be it for this chapter. Reviews and criticism are appreciated a lot.
I guess that's it for now! Sorry if the plot here was a bit strange. I wasn't actually sure how it would work out. I suck at writing.
I'm not sure how trolls are supposed to be blush, exactly. We've never seen anyone blush or bleed in the movie, so we don't know. The only hint is Poppy, really. We're still not sure.
I also don't know how concerts and parties really work. This is kind of, something where the guests have something to eat supplied by the host, and a place where singing and dancing on a stage are permitted, also by the host. I'll call it a concert because I suck at language. Sorry.
I'm not sure what I really did here. Again, Guy Diamond was actually one of the quieter characters, but one that likes to participate in chatting nonetheless. Very sorry if I got his character description wrong. But you all won't find this wall of text because nobody reads down to here.
One more thing I want to mention is the fact that I think I've heard GD speak in a normal, non auto-tune voice at certain points in the movie. Maybe its just me, because I think I have something from listening to way too much songs associated with memes. Memes are amazing.
Also, one more thing. Because there aren't too many characters in this movie, maybe I'll try writing part two's to certain pairings. You all want to see Poppy and Branch have a child, yes?
"Trek" was a reference to DreamWorks Animation's "Shrek".
"Trollzen", "Trolltopia" and "Troana" are references to "Frozen", "Zootopia" and "Moana" respectively, all belonging to Disney.
"Can't Help Falling In Love" belongs to Elvis Presley.
"Unity" belongs to TheFatRat.
Sorry, I love TheFatRat. I've been playing too much of Geometry Dash, which belongs to RobTopGames.
(*): I'm not actually an expert at love. This is what I thought were the keys to it, at least.
(**): Compare Suki's body size to Poppy's. Hopefully you'll see a difference. If you don't, I'm colourblind.
(***): Trolls have beautiful voices cliché.
(****): Get it? TrollTube? YouTube? Internet trolls? No? Sorry, I suck at comedy.
See you all in the next chapter!
