Trolls: Poppy's Sister

Chapter 22: Gala Party

Poppy was planning another perfect party, along with the bergens, too. You guessed it, a gala! Pamela was still sleeping on her bed, then Poppy whispered. "Pamela? Pamela... Pamela!".

"Ah!" Pamela yelled and fell off her bed as the blankets and pillows fell on her. Pamela blew her bangs off her face and looked up at Poppy. "Poppy, what the heck?".

"Dad's and I are planning a gala!" Poppy said and clapped her hands. Pamela rolled her eyes as she stood up and brushed her clothes and held her waist. "I don't know, I'm not much of a fan of gala's or dresses.".

"Cmon! You'll probably be beautiful! You might even see someone you like!" Poppy said but Pamela cringed. "Ew, Poppy, no. I don't have time for loving anyone. Boys are just a waste of time. Probably be friends first? But, fine, I'll just go ahead. I think I have a few dresses in my closet.".

"Great. I'll just go ahead and get mine!" Poppy said and walked to her bedroom. Pamela wore an pink dress that reached her toes, there was a orange held on the waist and had a ribbon behind her back. It was actually 9:52 pm, and Poppy just had to wake her up. Then she sighed as she tied her pink hair up, while Poppy wore a beautiful pink dress that reached her toes and had a blue belt on her waist and wore her usual headband. Then as they headed out, Pamela complimented. "You look amazing. I think Branch is gonna love it.".

"Pamela!" Poppy yelled as Pamela snickered and started laughing. Then Pamela stopped in her tracks as she stared at something. Then she elbowed Poppy as Poppy turned to her. Pamela aimed her head at Branch down on the ground wearing a black suit with a tie, along with the Snack Pack, but the girls wore dresses of course. Branch was talking along with the Snack Pack, then Pamela whispered to her. "He looks handsome in that suit, you should go talk to him.".

"No!" Poppy said but Pamela shrugged and started slowly backed away and heading to Branch. "Fine, then I'll go talk with him.".

"Pamela, wait-!" She said but Pamela already was beside Branch as she tapped his shoulder. Branch turned around and saw Pamela in a beautiful dress. "Hey Pamela, wow, you look amazing.".

"Don't tell me, that. Tell Poppy that." She said and looked at Poppy, Branch followed the direction she was facing and saw Poppy. His eyes widened as Poppy met his eyes. Pamela smirked as she pushed Branch towards Poppy and backed away while raising her thumbs. Then Poppy and Branch chuckled nervously, then awkward silence filled their aura and Branch cleared his throat, breaking the silence.  "You... look amazing, Poppy, um... may I have this dance?".

"Might as will, Branch." Poppy giggled and Branch held out his hand. Poppy held his hand as they headed down, slow music started to play, and they started dancing and talking a bit. Pamela sighed as she watched the bergens dance, too. Then she saw DJ Suki and Guy Diamond dancing together, as well as Biggie and Smidge, but Cooper and Fuzzbert just dancing solo. Pamela sighed as she saw everyone dancing... except her. Then she sighed as she looked down, suddenly, she felt a tap on her shoulder as she turned around and saw a troll with red hair, orange skin and brown eyes, he wore a suit, too, and including a smile. "Hi, you don't have a partner, do you?".

"Yeah, and you?" She asked as he nodded and held out his hand. "Hi, the name's Twig...".
