Trolls: Valentines Day Special (Short Story)

Chapter 1 - We Are DONE

It was a typical day in Troll Village. Queen Poppy was hanging out with her Best Friend, Branch.Branch had told the snack pack that he secretly loved Poppy and wanted to confess his love for her. The 2 were in his bunker scrapbooking. Poppy was not only the queen of the trolls, but also the queen of scrapbooking. Branch on the other hand, was rubbish at Scrapbooking. "How are you so good at this?" Branch asked in frustration. Poppy smirked at him. "I've been scrapbooking since i was like 8. Like you, I was once also absolute rubbish at scrapbooking. We all need to start somewhere." Poppy replied. The 2 continued to scrapbook. At the end, they compared their scrapbooks. Poppy's was perfect. Evenly cut and very neat. Branch's on the other hand... Well it was not neat, glue was still dripping out of it, and very unevenly cut. Poppy giggled at this. "Like i said Branch. We all need to start somewhere." She said. Branch laughed back. After Scrapbooking, they tidied up. "Come on dude, just tell her!" Branch kept thinking to himself. Then, the curtains that hid the invitations that Poppy had given Branch, came into her sight. Poppy, being very curious and a bit nosy at times, decided to look behind them. "Poppy wait!" Branch said trying to stop her. But it was too late. She'd already opened the curtains and saw the invitations. She turned around and said "Branch... you kept them?". Branch Rubbed the back of his neck. "Yeah. Even though it didn't seem like it, I really really cared about you." He said. "Wait wait wait. WHAT?! You cared for me?!" Poppy said a bit angrily. "Ye-...Yeah..." Branch replied nervously. "You cared about me? When I was 15, you told me that I would be the worst queen ever, you told me the world was perfect until August 9th, 1995!" (The day Poppy was born) "I ran home crying that day because I was so hurt! And yet, you cared about me?! That doesn't make sense!" Poppy yelled in anger. "Poppy I lo-" Branch tried to confess his love but was cut off. "No, I don't wanna hear it. We are done! Hear me? D-O-N-E DONE!" Poppy yelled before leaving. She went up the elevator breathing heavily in anger. Branch was lost for words. The only person that cared for him, the only person who he had a bond with, the only person he loved, now hated him. He fell on his knees and just sobbed. Turning grey in the process. What was the point. His Grandma was gone. Poppy was all he had, and now she's gone too.
