Blue and Pink

Chapter 1

     Branch tried to make the glitter spew out like Poppy's scrapbooks would but.... He was new to this,  and he basically sucked.  At this point he has tape on his fingers and nose,  glitter everywhere and glue and stickers stuck in his long blue hair. This is for Poppy he kept telling himself.  He struggled more... This thing had to be perfect. Right when he was about to give up,  glitter spewed from the little heart the paper Poppy and Branch were holding.  Branch fist pumped and started to clean up his mess,  proud of what he just did. Right when he was done,  he heard a knock on his bunker door.

    He dusted the last bit of glitter off of him and opened the door,  there stood Poppy. 

"Branch you aren't gonna believe what just happened to me!"  Poppy said ,  walking into his bunker as he held the door open for her,  he was used to this.

"I bet I'm not."  He replied sarcastically,  closing his bunker door. Sure he was Blue,  but he was always going to be sarcastic,  especially to Poppy.  She quickly rolled her eyes answer started pacing.

"So I was planning this weekends Gala,  ya know,  to celebrate the one month aniversery of our peace with the Bergens and stuff...."  The new queen was stressed out,  again.  Branch just nodded,  listening.

"Well it turns out we didn't order the right amount of cupcakes so now we are ruined and this gala is a bust! Its Wednesday Branch..... The Gala is Saturday! We have no time!  Well I have no time.... But I need-"

   Poppy was cut off by Branch's hand over her mouth. 

"You need me to help bake the cupcakes... Got it."  He removed his hand but the little pink troll kept going.

"Thanks Branch!  But we need party favors.... And where are the bergens going to-"  Cut off again by his hand.

"Cooper and Guy Diamond can do those, Biggie, Smidge, and Fuzzbert can work out seating and what not, Satin and Chenelle can do the decorations,  DJ Suki has speakers so the Beregns can hear the music from outside the tree.... So don't worry. All you have to do is show up and look pretty... And you don't need any help with that."  He said,  removing his hand as he was tackle hugged by Poppy.

"You are my Bestest Friend!!! Thank you Thank you Thank you!" Poppy squealed,  squeezing the blushing Branch half to death.

"Its not a problem Poppy.... Oh Ummm by the way...."  He grabbed his messed up looking scrap book and showed it to Poppy. The glitter spewed onto her bright pink nose.  She giggled and hugged the scrap book.

"I know it's not the best but-"

"I love it."  Poppy interrupted the blue troll,  smiling.  He smiled back relieved that his crush liked his little gift.

"I better go.... Will you have the cupcakes by tonight?  You can swing by my pod,  ok?"  Poppy asked,  heading for the door.

"Yeah,  sure!"  Branch replied not really thinking.

"Great!  See you tonight!"  Poppy waved,  then skipped out the door humming and holding her scrapbook Branch gave her.

     Branch gave a little wave good bye,  then closed the door when she left.  He slumped down against the door,  putting his face in his hands. 

"I'm screwed."  He said to himself.
