Chapter 1

Poppy felt a sudden sensation run through her body. Barb looked at her, confused even. "What's up with you?" She asked
ANALYZING HER BODY. Poppy laughed nervously, "OH! Nothing don't you worry I'm fine hehe. " Barb was obviously frustrated. "C'mon pinkie just tell me" She stomped towards her. "N-NOTHING, NOTHING AT ALL! " Poppy blurted out. Barb stopped in her tracks and furrowed her brows "Fine. Be like that. " She grabbed her guitar and marched away. Poppy sighed in relief. Just now she realized she was in love with Barb. Crazy right? She thought Branch would be her first love interest.

Next night:

Poppy was invited to a concert by Barb. Her date was Branch, yes they were dating at the time. "Hey trollbabe are you ready?" "Almost!" Poppy was fixing her eyeshadow. She wanted at least look like she fit in. But she was actually doing it for Barb. She wanted Barb to admire her.

WAIT
What- No, No don't think like that. Poppy looked in the mirror. "Good enough. BRANCH LETS GO PARTY!" She exclaimed as she punched the air. She was excited.. excited to see Barb. They arrived at the concert, it hasn't started yet but she could feel the metal vibe through her veins. Her eyes immediately lit up once she saw Barb. She couldn't felt but feel embarrassed. Usually she was upbeat and positive but when around Barb she felt weak to her knees and like her heart was going to explode. She held onto Branch who was usually skeptical like he always was. Barb's eyes shifted to Poppy's big pink hair. She could spot it from a crowd. She grinned and walked towards her in a hurry.

Poppy didn't want to see Barb. She felt embarrassed and weird. But it was too late to leave once she saw a hand with a fingerless glove on her shoulder. "B-Barb?" She turned her head and saw Barbs big smile that made her heart melt. "Sup pinkie, like the outfit. Like mine?" She chuckled as she struck a pose. Before she could reply she heard an announcement that the concert was going to start at any moment. Poppy glanced at Barb who looked very excited. "Gotta go! Hope to see you in the front pops!" She yelled as she began to walk away.

"Y-Yeah.." She felt her heart skip a beat. "She liked my outfit" she said to herself
The concert was starting. She was blasted by the heavy sounds and loud blasts that came from Barbs guitar. 'She looked so cool.. '
Poppy was lost in the music. It sounded like Barb. It sounded like heaven. She saw Barbs big toothy grin. They made eye contact and Barb gave her a wink that made her face flush. "WOW POPPY THIS IS SO COOL!!! " Branch yelled as he bobbed his head to the rhymth.
"Yeah.." Poppy said
She smiled slightly

After the concert Barb was in search of Poppy. She was told that she was awesome, great, and awesome. But really she wanted to know what Poppy thought.

"Wow Barb that was so cool!" Poppy shouted as her eyes lit up. Barb smiled "Of course it was. My music is always cool." She said with a smirk.

Poppy smiled at the comment and glanced at Branch who was very tired. "I would love to stay and talk about it but Branch is really worn out." Poppy said as she helped him up. Barb really hated Branch right now. Ruining their convos everytime.

"It's all cool poppy. Just come over when you feel like it." Barb said still maintaining her cool persona. "WOW REALLY?! Gosh a day with Barb! That'll be so cool!" Poppy shouted "Tomorrow right?"
Barb stared at her in disbelief "Y-Yeah.. It's a date!" She blurted out on accident
Poppy looked confused for a second until saying "Oh you mean the date? Its Tuesday."
