He'd been confused about what was happening with Branch and Johnny boy, but he ignored it for now.
They needed to find Clay.
After a few minutes Branch found Clay's old funderdrawers and broke open the glass.
They held them in front of Rhonda until she'd gotten the sent.
Then his older brother allowed Tiny Diamond to press the button.
At that moment, everything was all funny.
Then they stopped at an abandoned bergen golf course.
Branch's face broke his heart into quadruple-millions of pieces.
He was terrified as he walked in.
Bruce watched with concern but looked away when Tiny got his attention, "Move closer!" Tiny whispered.
Bruce looked confused, "What?"
Tiny sighed, "Move closer to Branch!"
Bruce moved closer to Branch, immediately getting his attention.
Branch moved over to him and clung to his arm and hid behind his back a bit.
Just like when he was a little baby..
Bruce smiled at him, "Hey, it's okay, sugar cookie, I promise.."
Branch's ears went up at the nickname and Bruce chuckled quietly, Branch always loved being called, 'sugar cookie' though it sometimes made the others jealous because Branch favored that nickname to the ones they gave him.
Branch clung to his arm, silently.
Bruce was concerned but still adored how adorable he looked.
But that soon went away when a Troll ran up to him and grabbed Branch with a loud squeal.
