  Creek walked onto the party floor along with the snack pack,  Everyone happy,  singing and dancing. Creek walked up to Poppy who was standing looking for a certain troll.

"Thanks for giving me another.... Chance."

"It was No problem Creek!"  She smiled,  still looking.

"Who are you looking for your highness?"  Creek asked as DJ Suki and Guy Diamond approached behind him wondering the Same thing.

"Oh.... Notroll...."  She said smiling at them.

"Branch is in his Bunker?  I can go get him...."  Guy Diamond offered. Poppy shook her head no.

"I should do it. He's my friend too...."  She said,  walking off towards Branch's bunker.

      Branch..... Who was in his bunker staring at the blue suit.  He hummed Total Eclipse of the Heart as his own heart was breaking. Wait a minute.... He didn't like Poppy!  Why was he.... Branch then sat up hearing knocks at his door.

   He stood up and grudgily walked towards the door,  he then opened it.

It was Poppy. 

   Branch stood blushing as his friend was wearing a sparkling blue dress along with a matching head band.... In his book blue was her color.

"I was hoping you would join me and my friends at the gala...."  She said standing twisting her hair in her finger.

"Thanks but.... I'm.... I'm ok...."  He replied closing the door,  but Poppy stopped it with her foot.

"I know you don't like Creek.... At all.... But I think Everyone deserves another chance....I even gave you one so.... Just...."  she slipped a special invitation through the door.  "Think about it."  He then heard her foot steps walk away.

    Branch stood there holding the invitation he didn't want to open it....But he did. It had a poem in it.

When you were grey
You were never ok
But Now I'm glad
that you're this way
I know that every day
You have to always say
That you are ok
But you're not
So I'm Here to say
I love you either way

   Branch stood there blushing then looked at the blue suit that lay on his bed. He looked back at the invitation and placed it behind his red curtains. 

"You suck at poetry Poppy.... Stick to scrap booking."  He mumbled in good humor,  then grabbed his suit and put it on. He looked at himself in the mirror.

"I'm No Creek but.... I'm blue so...."  He said,  walking away from the mirror and walking up to the loud music.  It wasn't really a gala like Poppy said.... It was more of a fancy party.  He could see outside the tree of the bergens dancing and singing and having fun.

It was good to know People could change.
