Poppy couldn't believe it, but it was true. She brought happiness to Bergen Town and is now Queen of the Trolls. Like her father, King Peppy, Poppy proved herself to be a true hero. After everything that happened, she had a feeling everything would be smooth sailing.
And she couldn't be more wrong.

Just a few days after being crowned queen, Poppy found out there was more to it than smiling and waving. She had to sign a treaty with the Bergens and help the Trolls get settled in as they moved back into the Troll Tree. King Peppy was retired so she didn't have much help.
Fortunately, her friends were there for her.
"Poppy, you need a break," Satin suggested.
"What makes you say that?" she asked groggily.
"Your face is white," Chenille pointed out.
"Yeah, you're awfully pale," Satin agreed. "How about we get some lattes?"
"No, thanks," Poppy said. "I have more paperwork to take care of. Plus, if I drink anymore coffee, my head will explode."

Once the twins left, Poppy continued with her work. After a couple hours (which felt like years), Poppy decided to get some fresh air. She stepped outside of her pod and onto a tree branch. To keep her head up, she began to sing a little ditty.

Poppy almost fainted and fell. But all of a sudden, she felt something grab her ankle. She looked at her feet and saw Branch using his hair to hold onto her. They smiled at each other as he pulled her up.
Poppy and Branch hadn't even kissed yet, but it was obvious they loved each other very much.
"You okay?" Branch asked.
"Yeah.... no," Poppy replied, sitting down. "I can't get any sleep, I've been skipping lunch for two days... I don't know why I thought I could do this."
"Oh, Poppy..." Branch sighed, pushing the hair out of her face. "I could help, if you want. But first, I want you get some rest."
"Branch, you're so sweet," Poppy sighed. She then wrapped her arms around his neck and nuzzled his face.
Branch felt the urge to kiss her, but he just picked her up and carried her back to her pod.

Poppy had already fallen asleep by the time Branch put her to bed. As he tucked her in, Branch couldn't help but notice how cute she was. He lied next to her and held her face.
“I love you, Poppy," he whispered, kissing her forehead.

Sorry this was short... and that I suck at writing romance/fluff.

I will do more of these, but in case you're wondering, I am not bringing back Creek. Mmm-mmm. No way.

Until next time. ✌
