Branch walked along the track of leaves back to his bunker, when he hears talking and murmuring coming from across from him.

"So?" he watched Them, and DJ was talking. "Creek told me he's going to ask Poppy out tonight."

What?!

"Really?" Cooper asked. "Awe! That's so sweet! They're so cute!!"

"Yes. But Poppy likes someone else," Satin said.

Who?

"Who?" Biggie asked.

Chenille and Satin gave each other a quick glace. "Uhh....nobody. She doesn't want anyone to know."

"Well, she can tell us. Oh, here she is now!" GD said, and pointed in the direction of where Branch was eavesdropping.

"Hey!" a hand landed on his shoulder.

"P-Poppy.....what are you doing here.....?!" Branch asked, almost falling down.

"Are you okay? You seem a little uneven."

"I'm fine."

"Well. I'm going to have a picnic with my friends. C'mon!"

Before Branch could fight back, Poppy grabbed his hand and pulled him in with the group.

"Hey guys! Branch is going to join us today!!" Poppy announced, making everyone stare at him.

"Really?" Cooper asked.

Branch shrugged. "Apparently, I am."

He sat down, and everyone talked. He must've dozed off, because the next thing he knew, Poppy was tapping his shoulder.

"Branch?" Poppy asked. "It's time. We always do this thing at the end of our picnic, where we blindly pick someone. We then kiss them. Or hug them. Or whatever."

Branch rolled his eyes. "Ugh, ew."

"What? It's always funny to see who we end up with. I ended up with Mr. Dinkles once."

"Mew!" Mr. Dinkles cheered.

Branch was assigned a blindfold. So was everyone else.

"Ready! Set! GOOOOO!"

He walked around, and within a few seconds, he felt a connection of lips.

"Is that you, Poppy?" Branch asked.

"Yes."
