Buckin' Branch

Val's POV

Branch and I are in the village getting coco.

But screaming gets our attention. It's from Biggie. We look up to see Mr. Dinkles holding onto a tree branch.

"Mr. Dinkles! Somebody help him!" Biggie shouts in fear.

"Looks like we're going to have to take this coco to go-go." Branch says to me before we run over towards Mr. Dinkles.

Mr. Dinkles was slipping and he soon falls.

"Branch! Launch me!" I say to Branch.

Branch grabs me with his hair and throws me towards Mr. Dinkles.

Before Mr. Dinkles can hit the ground, I grab him and land next to Biggie.

"Oh, thank you Val." Biggie says before grabbing Mr. Dinkles and walking off.

That was pretty fun. I love saving people.

"Well dang, y'all. We come down here to get some coco to go-go, and the next thing I know this cutie doing the finest critter wrangling this side of Lonesome Flats." Holly says to me as she and Gust walk over to us.

"Me? Well, I don't know about that. I mean, I wouldn't have done without Branch's help." I say to them shyly.

"Don't me modest, Val. You and Branch got something special." Gust says.

Special?

Branch's eyes are filled with stars while my eyes.........dilate.........again.

Why is this happening to me?! First it happened with Lownote Jones, then Dante, then Synth, then Demo, and now Gust! Could it be that I........................Nah, it can't be that.

"Me? Special?" Branch asks.

He does know that Gust said him and I right?

"I know it in my gut. And I always listen to my gut." Gust says.

Just then, Gust's stomach started to gurgle.

"Good thinking, gut. You two should come try out for our rodeo." Gust says.

"That's a great idea. Why, Gust's gut, you are the most insightful digestive system I have ever had the pleasure in knowing." Holly says to Gust's gut.

"What do you say, Val and Branch? Care to try out?" Gust asks Branch and I.

"You really think we can do it?" Branch asks.

Gust's gut gurgles again.

"Does that answer your question?" Gust asks.

Branch and I were a little confused since we don't know what Gust's gut said.

"See you there, cowboy and cowgirl." Gust says before he and Holly walk away.

We stand there for a minute, thinking about the rodeo tryout.

Branch and I decided, and we are going to try out for the rodeo.

But Branch insisted in wearing a cowboy outfit.

I decided not to.

We are standing by a cactus waiting for Poppy and Smidge to arrive.

A few minutes pass and we see Poppy and Smidge walking towards us.

"Morning, ma'am, tiny ma'am." Branch says to Poppy and Smidge in a country accent.

"Uh, Branch?" Poppy asks in confusion.
