GRANDMA'S BIRTHDAY🎂💗(A Broppy Fanfic)

Part 6:-Nightmares😭

-"Branch watch out!"

*and i need you now tonight.....*

-"Branch!!"

"No,no"

*and i need you more than ever...*

-"I'm done,I'm sorry"

-"Fine I'm out of here"

"No...no"

*and we'll only be making it right....*

-"When you miss me,you can wear this;it'll be like I'm right here with you"

*"Grandmaaa!!!!!"*

"No,no, *noooo!!!*"

Branch sat up in bed,sweaty all over. His vest slipped from his arms as he tried to breathe properly and calm his nerves. He took in deep breaths which helped him a little to relax.

Turning his head around the room,he saw poppy sleeping contently by his side,drooling from her mouth and face content, and branch sighed.

He laid down again beside her and tried to sleep. But whenever he closed his eyes,those horrid painful flashbacks came back to him.

-"It's not your fault,baby branch"

-"Dude, that is exactly what happens when we follow your lead"

-"If we can't reach the perfect family harmony, we aren't perfect,and if we aren't perfect,we're nothing!!"

-"Branch,watch out!!"

"No,no,no,not again"

Branch got out of bed,his mind in a daze and his legs wobbly due to the nightmare. For some years he had been getting nightmares a few nights, but they weren't this worse,as for the past couple of days he had been getting nightmares,but he hadn't told poppy,because he knew she'd worry a lot,and he didn't want her to,especially when she was sick.

He scanned his eyes around the dark room and finding his way across,went to the cupboard and took out a torch. Then he slowly made his way to the door and glanced once at the clock :- *4am*

He looked towards poppy,seeing her asleep in bed,and his mind thought that she might worry about him when she woke up.

Groaning,he took out a pen and paper and scribbled a note and kept it on her desk before going.

The village was silent as he walked off to a place where only him and poppy knew about,his feet rustling on the soft grass,as his mind flashed more painful memories and one or two tears slipped out down on the ground.

*An hour later*

Poppy groaned in her sleep,the lack of warmth beside her quite relevant now as she opened her eyes slowly. She was quite surprised to see branch wasn't there by her side and sat up,her dishevelled hair falling on the pillow.

"Branch?"

No answer came. Poppy got up and scanned her eyes around the room,hoping that branch was playing a trick on her. He wouldn't go,would he? He had promised her he would stay the night. While she was pondering over this,her eyes flicked upon the small sheet of paper peeking out from her desk. She almost ran over to it,hoping it was from branch. It was!

"Princess,I'm sure you will be mad at me right now,but if you find this letter,and if you're wondering where I have gone,you can come to the place I showed you quite recently or more specifically,the day before my grandma's birthday"

Poppy thought over the location when it came to her. Taking out another torch,she practically ran out to find him,not even taking the time to do her hair.
