The Fifth Time King Peppy see's a hickey on Poppy's neck is when she was late for dinner but he didn't really mind at all.
He noticed how tense his daughter had been this past few weeks and he wanted to spend a little down time with her. "Sorry I'm late Dad, I took a little nap and wanted to sleep a little longer but Branch woke me up." The Pop Queen immediately sat across from him not really aware about three big red marks across her neck. He honestly can't tell if she knows it's there or if she doesn't really care.
He should really have a talk with both of them about covering up. "It's okay I just wanted to give you a break away from your troubles." The old troll smiled warmly toward her which she looked relieved. Poppy said as she made herself comfortable on the chair. "I must look like a completely mess right now." The Pop Queen joke causing him to smile and nod. "Yes dear, have you seen the hickeys on your neck?" He said while pouring a cup of tea for Poppy and himself. He was having such a good time teasing her.
The Pop Queen immediately took out a mirror that was stuffed in her hair and checked herself out. Her eyes widened in shock. "Dang it Branch!" Poppy grumbled. If Branch was here right now he would probably be laughing. She immediately shook her head and took a sip of her tea while completely made her relax. "I'm really sorry about all of this!" She said motioning to her neck but he knows deep down that she wasn't afraid to hide it and that's what he admired about Poppy.
"That's okay, It's really not any of my business." He heard Poppy let out an uncomfortable laugh as she took another sip of her tea. "Is it weird knowing that Branch and I are intimate and all that stuff?" The Pop Queen asked and he stared at her with a serious look. "No, It's completely natural. And you don't seem like a 'waiting till marriage type of girl' you're more of a 'I know what I want and I'll get it type of girl' if you know what I mean." Poppy nodded and smiled at him. He was glad she felt a little better about this topic.
"Also, I can be a protective father over Viva because she's a huge mess." The former King joked causing Poppy to laugh. She grabbed both of his hands and held them together. "Thank you for everything you do Dad." Poppy smiled at him and he kissed her hand. "Anything for you my dear." He said happy about being completely successful in getting his daughter to relax and enjoy their time together.
