It was Halloween night, everyone to their homes after the big Halloween party for Trolls & Bergens. But, Poppy was having trouble falling asleep. She knows that it's late, but there's someone she could talk to.
Poppy: Branch...?
Branch: Poppy, what are you still doing up? It's midnight.
Poppy: I know....it's hard to sleep.
Branch: Why? Are you ok? Your voice is shaking a bit.
Poppy: It's just, I feel like there's someone watching.....
Branch: What makes you say that?
Poppy looks around & sees a shadow of he-who-will-not-be-named.
Poppy: *screams*
Branch: Poppy?!
Poppy: H-his shadow just appeared. I don't know if my eyes of playing tricks on me or not....! I'm scared....!
Hot tears were coming out of her eyes in fear. Remembering the day HE sold out the whole Village, made Branch's blood boil. He had to stand there, seeing the one he was in love with his whole life sadly turning gray, it was one of the worse thing he has ever seen in his life. Branch doesn't like hearing Poppy cry, so he started singing.
Oh, oh
When the visions around you
Bring tears to your eyes
And all that surrounds you
Are secrets and lies
I'll be your strength
I'll give you hope
Keeping your faith when it's gone
The one you should call
Was standing there all along
And I will take you in my arms
And hold you right where you belong
Til' the day my life is through
This I promise you
This I promise you
I've loved you forever
In lifetimes before
And I promise you never
Will you hurt anymore
I give you my word
I give you my heart
This is a battle we've won
And with this vow
Forever has now begun
Just close your eyes (close your eyes)each loving day (each loving day)
And know this feeling won't go away (no)
Til' the day my life is through
This I promise you
This I promise you
Over and over I thought
When I hear you call
Without you in my life, baby
I just wouldn't be living at all
And I will take you in my arms (I will take you in my arms)
And hold you right where you belong (right where you belong)
Til' the day my life is through
This I promise you, babe
Just close your eyes each loving day (each loving day)
And know this feeling won't go away (no)
Every word I say is true
This I promise you
Every word I say is true
This I promise you
Ooh, I promise you
Poppy's tears stop as soon as he stopped singing. She felt herself smiling after hearing his angelic voice that she loves.
Branch: Are you alright, now?
Poppy: Yea.
Branch: I'm always there when you need someone to talk to.
Poppy: I can always count on you.
Branch: And, don't you forget it.
Poppy: *chuckles*
Branch: I love you, Poppy~. Good night.
Poppy: You too~.
Poppy hung up & placed her phone on the night stand. His voice keeps playing in her head as she slowly falls asleep.
This I promise you~
Happy Halloween, everyone!
