Poppy was sitting at a table booth with Holly trying to find ways to tell Barb the truth about everything. Especially her

"Holly, what if she hates me after this?" Poppy asked

"Well that's her loss Poppy. Look, you're lyin' but it's for a good costs. You've been here for a few weeks. Why should that change just because you're Pop?" Holly asked

"Yeah. Yeah! Yeah you're right Holly. I'll go tell her." Poppy said

"Good luck!" Holly said

Poppy got up and waved bye to Holly going to Barbs room

Barb was walking back and forth in her room trying to get any idea to ask Poppy out

"Hey! Poppy! How about you and I go out for dinner tonight?" Barb asked herself with a smirk

Barb shook her head

"No that's stupid and too cliché." Barb said

Barb kicked the wall and something fell. It made her flinch and immediately back away. Barb stepped closer to it then picked it up

It was Thrash's old list. Barb sighed and put it back

"Could've sworn that would've never come out again." Barb said

As she was putting it up, the door open to reveal Poppy

"Barb!" Poppy smiled

"AHHHHHHH!!" Barb screamed

Barb fell off the ladder and fell on the floor. They both heard a creak

Barb looked up and saw the guitars coming lose

"Oh no.." Barb said

The guitars fell on her. Poppy winced

"Oooh ouch." Poppy said

Poppy went over to Barb to help her out. Barb dusted herself off as the two put the guitars back. Barb looked at Poppy and cleared her throat

"Hey umm Poppy?" Barb called

"Yeah?" Poppy asked

"Umm... I know yesterday was over the top, but I was wondering if you wanted to umm go out for dinner?..." Barb said

"With you? Well I came to tell you something." Poppy said

"Yeahhh you know, who cares about dinner! We can- umm... we can just hang! Like friends..." Barb said

Poppy looked at her, totally forgetting about what she was about to tell her

"You know what, I'll just- I'll umm..."

Barb ran to hide under her bed again. Poppy looked down at the blanket, lifting it up

"Barb?" Poppy called

Barb looked at her and just crawled deeper under the bed close to the dark

"Um..." Poppy began

"Mmmm I'm sorry about yesterday Poppy." Barb said

"Yesterday? Oh, you don't have to be sorry Barb." Poppy said

"I went wayyyy to far with that whole song yesterday." Barb said, getting further in the dark

"It was a great song Barb." Poppy said

"Yeah it was, but you looked like you didn't enjoy it." Barb said

Poppy went under the bed with her

"Well I did, but you were just... singing it to me in front of everyone, and plus you're my best friend Barb, I didn't mean to hurt you." Poppy said
