So hey I attended the funeral so sorry for late writing, So shall we get started

A week later... It was a casual mourning, nothing special was happening during the day. Branch was just taking a good nap because of the day before, he worked late in collecting needed materials. Poppy was already up and was about to hand Branch an invitation to another party.

Poppy was just out side the bunker, searching for Branch. "Branch where are you?" Poppy shouted, finding Branch. No foot steps was outside the mat so she thought Branch was inside. "Poppy what are you doing, its still early, go to sleep" Branch said as he opened the eye hole. He closed it off again just before Poppy can say anything.

"BRANCH!" Poppy shouted again. "Poppy you are going to wake everyone up, have some respect" Branch scolded. "Well, I have another invitation for you" Poppy said. Why won't she just leave me alone, can't she tell I'm not in the mood, can't she tell that I would never go to her parties. Branch tought just before saying "Poppy why won't you give up like the rest of the other trolls would... Besides there's only one thing that would make me come to one of your parties". More like three dump Creek, confess true love and just stop asking about my sadness problem. Branch thought. "Well what is it, I'll do anything" Poppy said. "Do you really wanna know" Branch asked as he opened the mat for her to come in and give it to him properly and quietly. "Mhmm" Poppy said, landing the invitation on his table.

Branch wanted Poppy to know that he loved him but he was afraid of the consiquences of his choices if Poppy would deny him so he said "NO". "What?!" Poppy said. "I said no, Poppy. I would go to this one if you would stop asking about my problem, but just this time since I'm not going to do anything today. Plus I want to keep the party safe" Branch answered her.

"Okay" Poppy said.

Later that day, Branch was at the party and Poppy got excited. The party was wild and it was a good thing there were safty rules and "enough liquid in the area for hydration" because Branch would freak out about there safety.

Once they met at the party, Poppy immidiatly holded his hands and pulled him onto the dance floor. Branch shyly rubbed his arm and backed away blushing while Poppy dances infront of him.

The party was the birthday party of a young girl, almost as old as Poppy but slightly younger. Just before the the girl got to blow her birthday candle, Branch was startled by the sound of loud thuds and he thought it was a bergan so he got paranoid, again.

"The Bergans are coming, raaaaagh" Branch shouted waving his hands and pushing the table where the cake is. Everyone started to panic but soon they thought that there couldn't be a bergan this far away from bergan town. "Don't panic, I'll talk to Branch about this, BRANCH!" Poppy shouted so the party can here as she pulled Branch to a more private location.

"Poppy, sorry if I ruined the party and the cake, you should't have invited me" Branch said afraid of her more than bergans. "Can you -please not ruin this party, it's a birthday of my friend, your friend" Poppy pointed out.

"YOUR FRIEND, I don't have friends" Branch said. "I'm your friend and... There your friends too, don't fight it" Poppy told him. Then Branch decided to leave for the greater good.

"Hey Branch, is it about something I said" Poppy asked. "No, just thinking how fun this would be for all of you if I wasn't around to ruin it" Branch told Poppt of the truth. "Wait, but...*sigh* okay, just never forget that I'm always around to help you okay?" Poppy said as Branch nodded.

The loud party was over when he got to his bunker. Well, I guess I ruined the cake so they have to shut it down early. Branch thought as he sat down at the head area of the bed. Crying, Branch started to hug his knees. No I won't do this anymore, I know what to do to cheer 'em up again. Branch thought as he gathered baking materials.

Branch knows that Poppy will go to him every night to say goodnight so she was part of his plan to cheer 'em up. When Poppy was infront of Branch's not so well coming mat, Branch popped out holding a beautiful and delisious cake. "Hey Poppy, can you give this tp the others to say sorry and please tell them that for me, thank you bye, oh yeah goodnight" Branch said closeing the hatch again as Poppy stood quiet "well, goodnight" Poppy said with such small opened mouth.

Branch couldn't help but still feel sorry for the things he had done. He felt inspired again over this feeling and started writing a new poem.

Friends

Friends are always there for you

What friends are for, I have a clue

They are there to help in any way

With them around, you'll have a happy day

When friendship has just began

Helping one another is eachother's plan

-note I should stop writong my name since you know who writes this

That day, got the feeling of success and fulfillment through friendship so he slept for the night.

Meanwhile, Poppy was thinking about Branch because today is the day he started wearing the necklace but other trolls didn't notice it. Poppy felt asleep but can't sleep through thoughts.

Will the other trolls forgive Branch!? Will Poppy be inlove with Branch again and again each day?! Will Branch deny the love he feels for Poppy?! Will Poppy know of his love?!
