     Branch and Barb bickered, as they shoved each other around in the backpack.

     "This is my side of the bag! Get your own spot!" Barb shouted, shoving Branch away. "There's no sides!" Branch argued. "I'm staying right here!" He shoved her back.

     Everyone in the plane was looking at Molly, as she sat, awkwardly, yelling and fighting sounds coming from her backpack.

     "Um..." she said, smiling innocently. "It's... my phone... It's been acting up lately."

     The fighting continued, getting louder, as everyone continued to stare.

     "I'll just... shut it off," Molly said, punching the bag, hard.

     "Ow!" both trolls yelled from inside, immediately going back to yelling at each other.

     Molly chuckled, quietly.

     "Must've his the wrong button. I'll try again."

     She punched the bag again.

     "Ow!" both trolls yelled again.

     "Hey! Knock that off!" Barb yelled from inside the bag.
"Than stop fighting," Molly whispered back, as she punched the bag again.
"Ow!"

     The fighting stopped, as everyone slowly went back to minding their own business.

     "Ow! Hey, hey, hey! That's my ear!" Branch suddenly yelled from inside the bag, as Barb pulled his ear. "Quit touching me!" He pushed her away, crossing his arms, as he turned his back to her.

     Slowly, Barb moved her finger closer to Branch, as she smirked.

     "I said, stop touching me," Branch grumbled, angrily, still looking away from her.
"I'm not touching you," Barb replied with an evil smirk.

     She was holding her finger right next to his face, but wasn't quite touching him.

     "Stop..." Branch complained, trying to push her away.
"I'm not touching you," Barb replied, continuing to hold her finger next to his face.

     "Molly!" Branch whined, like a little kid complaining about their sibling to their mom. "She's touching me!"
"I am not," Barb yelled.

     "Leave me alone!" Branch yelled, trying to move away from her, but she kept holding her finger next to his face. "I'm not touching you," she teased.

     "She's touching me. She's touching me!" Branch shouted, pointing at Barb's finger.
"I'm not touching you," she replied, smugly, rolling her eyes, keeping her finger next to his face.

     "Ah! Your touching me!" Branch screamed, loudly.
"Not touching," Barb smirked.
"TOUCHING ME!"
"It's free air..."

     Suddenly Branch licked Barb's face.

     "Ew!" Barb screeched, tackling Branch.

     Everyone started staring again, Molly shrinking down in her seat, as she covered her face.
