I'm soooo sorry I've been on holiday all week and had no freaking wifi so I haven't been able to update the story but here is the next chapter.
Chapter 6
Poppy's POV
I could explode with happiness. BRANCH LIKES ME BACK! I've honestly never been this happy and when I looked down, I realized our feet were glowing."Branch.. what's happening?" I looked in his eyes hoping for an answer."Because, were made for eatchother" He looked down blushing realized what he had said. I giggled, grabbed his vest and pulled him into another kiss. He stroked my hair making me giggle again. We broke apart and he stood there a little startled from the sudden kiss."Poppy will you be my girlfriend?" He went all nervous again and I just jumped in his arms showering him with tiny kisses." I'll take that as a yes" He laughed. Oh I love it when he laughed it was like the whole world had stopped and it was just me and him. Nothing could ruin this moment.
Creeks POV
Ah there they were my Poppy and that twig collector Branch. He was nothing more than a sly grumpy troll that has tricked Poppy into liking him. Well I have a plan to fix it all Poppy will be mine. NOT his.
Branches POV
I never thought I'd be able to feel like this. Not only am I blue but I glow and even brighter blue when Poppy is around. I never wanted this moment to end but it was starting to get dark." Poppy I think it's time I got you back to your pod" I knew she didn't like the idea"No. I want to stay here in this moment forever" She stomped her feet as to say I'm in charge."Well then I'll just have to do this" I picked her up and chucked her over my shoulder as I walked to her pod." Branchhhh put me down" She shimmied around trying to find a way to break free from my arms. "Argh your freakishly strong Branch" I couldn't help but laugh." Well I can let you down now your highness because we're here" I placed her down on the ground."Pleaseeeee stay with me Branchie" She looked up at me with pleading eyes and a trembling lip. " You do know I live 10 steps away right?" I joked. "Yeah but in my pod your closer"
"Fine but I'm only staying for tonight thats it"
"Okie dokie" She grinned and pulled me inside.
I always liked Poppy's pod. There was something about it that made me.. happy. "So Branchhh what do you want to do" Poppy asked. "How about you get some sleep" Poppy looked at me like I had said something totally crazy. "But I'm not tired
" Poppy exclaimed whilst letting out a big yawn. "I think you are come on" Poppy had sat on the floor as a sign of protest. "That does nothing" I said as I picked her up and carried her into her room and sat her on her bed.
"Branch you need to stop doing that"
"Why, it works" I laughed and so did she but.. something felt weird, like someone was watching us. I shook of the feeling. "Okay Poppy I'm serious now you need your sleep"
"So are you going to leave now" she said looking sad that she'd have to be alone. "No I'll be in the next room if you need anything okay?" She nodded and climbed into bed. "Branch"
"Yes?"
"Thank you.. your so perfect" I laughed and tucked her in.
"So are you" I went into the other room and made a quick drink. I couldn't stop thinking about how lucky I was that I had Poppy.
Creeks POV
Branch had left the room and Poppy was finally alone. "Time for my plan to go into action" I wisperd to myself. As I climbed through the open window I heard Poppy. "Branch..is that you?" I came out from the shadows. "No Poppy it's me"
