"Come on Poppy you can't shut me out," The apologetic male troll reasoned to her facing the door.

"After what you've done? I think I have the right to," She said coldly.

"Look, Poppy I am sorry,"

"Sorry is not going to solve anything, it never does when we are in an argument,"

"Just let me know what I have done, I will make it up to you,"

Poppy wouldn't answer. Branch gave a sigh of despair.

"You said that you didn't like me anymore, that really hurt me, " Her voice went a bit soft.

"Poppy, you know I don't mean that,"

She opened the door abruptly and gave a furious look at Branch.

"Then why the f*ck did you say that?!" Her volume in her voice turned into a crescendo.

"You won't even let me explain!! I was talking with Guy and he was annoying me, so I just blurted that by accident,"

"Bullsh*t!"

"You're bullsh*t! You won't accept the fact that I accidentally said that!"

"Well that's because you are the love of my life! You hurt me, it was like a dagger to my chest and heart... But, you shouldn't worry now... I'm done with you,"

"With this argument?"

"No... Everything, that includes our relationship,"

Poppy walked to the platform.

"Where the f*ck are you going?" I questioned

"Away from you,"

Without giving me look, she left my bunker by pressing the lever.

Sh*t. What the f*ck have I done? - Branch thought.

Branch gave a frustrated groan as he kicked the floor.

"Why the hell am I so f*cked up?" Branch whispered to myself.

The morning in troll Village was not a great start for them. They were having this brawl for more than 20 minutes. Branch was trying to explain but Poppy wouldn't listen. He now regrets everything he did. Unexpectedly, he heard someone knocking.

"What the f*ck do you want?!" Branch shouted.

"Branch... Sorry, it's Guy,"

Tiredly, Branch put his fingers on his temples and massaged them.

"Come in,"

Branch heard the platform go down and he crossed his arms and looked at the side. The noises stopped and Guy was waiting for him to say something.

"What are you here for?" Branch asked, sinking into his chair in despair.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that,"

"Don't worry, it's not your fault,"

"What? Not my fault? I shouldn't have annoyed you, then Poppy wouldn't be mad at you,"

"Well, she didn't know what I was gonna say next,"

"What were you going to say?"

"I don't like her, I love her," Branch said looking down at the floor.

"Awww,"

"Well, I can't say that to her ever again," Branch stood from the chair and walked around arms crossed

"Why? Wait, no don't tell me you guys-,"

"Yeah... we did,"

"NoOoOoO!" Guy screamed in auto-tune. "It can't end like this!"

"Well... It just did,"

Branch's eyes were filled with tears, he bit his bottom lip to make the tears not slip from his eyes.

"Branch... come on, don't cry, we will sort it out,"

Guy put a hand on Branch's shoulder. Branch felt a spark of anger run down his spine. He shook of Guy's grasp.

"HOW?! I MESSED UP EVERYTHING! EVERYTHING!! FACE IT! SHE IS OUT OF MY LIFE! AND THERE'S NOTHING I OR YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT!"

Guy gave a horrified look at Branch. Guy rubbed the side of his arm looking at the side. He felt really guilty for what he had done, annoy Branch and caused the wonderful couple to part. Branch started to feel bad for shouting at him.

"Guy look, sorry, it's just-,"

Before Branch could continue his sentence, he felt a buzz in his pocket a couple of times. It was his phone, he got it out and apologised to Guy.

"Sorry, this is important I have to take this,"

"Is it Poppy?"

"Sadly, no,"

"Aw, " Guy sighed sadly.

Branch pressed answer and put the phone up to his ear.

"Hello?" Branch began to say. "Yes I am Branch, Poppy's... Uh... Friend, "

Guy's face lit up. Branch rolled his eyes and smiled.

"You need me to come to hospital? Why?" Branch questioned, he then heard something that made him stunned. "W-What? She... What?"

Branch closed his eyes and wanted to think about what they said wasn't true.

"O-Okay, I will immediately go there,"

Branch ended the call and walked swiftly to the lever.

"Where are you going?"

"Not now, it is an emergency,"

"Just tell me!" Guy insisted

Branch turned around and looked at him.

"You really want me to tell you?"

"Yeah, how bad can it be?"

Branch looked up and breathed heavily.

"Poppy got run over by a car..."

Guy's jaw was opened and he was astounded by the news.

--------------------------------------------------------------

As Branch and GD were running to the hospital. The Snack Pack saw them and ran with them.

"Where are you guys going?" Biggie asked

"To the hospital, " Guy answered

"Why?" Satin and Chenille asked in unison.

"Poppy got run over by a car, " Branch explained

Everyone gasped in shock.

"Oh my gah," Smidge exclaimed

Branch sighed and took a sharp turn to the right.

"It's all my fault! Why am I so f*cking stupid?!"

"Branch, don't say that, it is probably nothing," Guy tried to calm him down

"Really?! How can you say that?!" Branch panicked

"Cuz! I had a friend who got run over by a car,"

"Really what happened?" Branch had hope

"Well, uh, he had to stay in his pod for a few weeks..."

Branch's hope has left his body and soul

"HOW DOES THAT HELP?!" The Snack Pack shouted at him.

"Sorry!" Guy apologised.

Branch slammed the hospital doors out of his way, every troll turned and looked at him, but Branch didn't mind the attention. His only priority is to make sure that Poppy is okay. He is really protective when it comes to situations like this. Especially when it is Poppy that is hurt.

He raced to the reception desk and slammed his palms on it.

"Do you have a patient called Poppy Kendrick?!" He screamed at the person behind the counter

"Yes, room 301," The receptionist answered

"Thank you,"

Branch ran up the flight of stairs, not giving attention to the pain in his legs as he ran up those flights. The Snack Pack followed him from behind, they were already tired out.

As Branch got to the floor that he wanted, the doctor of room 301. Went out. Branch dashed to him.

"Can I see her?" Branch asked

"Who are you?"

"I am her friend,"

"Go in then,"

"Alright thanks,"

"But I need to tell you-,"

Branch made a grand entrance in the room but the doctor followed him. Poppy turned her head and looked at Branch.

"Poppy! I'm here, I'm here... I am so sorry for everything that I have done..."

Tears were filling Branch's eyes, he held Poppy's wounded hand but Poppy just looked confused. Poppy shook it off and gave a disturbed look.

"Sorry... Do you forgive me? I won't say anything like that again..."

Branch hoped that Poppy would forgive him but she just stared at him blankly, not saying a word, except for the words that Branch would never thought Poppy would say.

"Who are you..?" Poppy asked

Branch stepped back in disbelief and covered his mouth.

"No..." Branch paused and took a moment to consider this "No, this can't happen!" Branch denied shouting with disbelief and anger.

"Sorry sir but, your friend has Long-Term Memory Loss,"

"No! I can't allow that to occur!"

The tears that Branch was holding back was unintentionally escaping.

"Sir, I am serious, I advise you to leave or else you would startle the patient,"

"She remembers me! I am sure she does!"

The doctor guided him to leave the room.

"Sorry sir, her memory will come back but it could take a few months or weeks,"

"But I want her to remember me now,"

Branch wiped a few of his tears.

"Sorry sir but we can't do anything about it,"

The doctor went back to his room. Branch went on his knees and covered himself with his hands. More meaningful tears were escaping now.

"F*CK!!!" Branch bellowed in fury.

He hated himself more than anything. The Snack Pack heard him shout and ran to him immediately.

"Branch are you okay?" Biggie asked putting a hand on his back

"No Biggie! I am not!"

Branch still kept on crying and crying his eyes out.

"I think you need some time to yourself," Guy put a hand on Branch's shoulder.

"Thanks for understanding..."

"Anytime,"

The Snack Pack left Branch alone.

Meanwhile in Room 301.

"Who was that?" Poppy asked her doctor.

"That was a friend called Branch, do you know/remember him?"

"Um, not really, his name is Branch? What a weird name,"

"Do you remember your name?" The doctor asked

Poppy thought hard but she just scratched her head and shook it.

"Yep, definitely Long-Term Memory Loss," The doctor mumbled to himself.

"What is my name?" Poppy asked the doctor.

"Your name is Poppy Kendrick, in a few days you will be ready to get out of this hospital and go back to troll village,"

"Thanks doc,"

--------------------------------------------------------------

Late at night, the Snack Pack were at Branch's bunker talking about what happened to Poppy earlier on that day.

"She... What?" Suki could not believe it what Branch just said

"Believe me Suki, it's true,"

"But this can't happen, she has to remember! Or else who is gonna remember where I put my secret chocolate and almond cookie recipe!" Cooper exclaimed

Although everyone was meant to laugh,  this was not a time to laugh. they just found out that their friend has Long-term memory loss, this was a time of sadness and depression. But Guy couldn't see all of them sulk about their friend.

"Come on everyone, don't lose hope! When she comes back, we have to try and restore her memory,"

"How?" Everyone questioned

"When she comes back, we have to re-act our moments with her so she can remember,"

Everyone's hopes were lifted up so they rejoiced and liked the sound of the plan that Guy gave. They all shouted and cheered accept for one person. Branch just kept on sulking and pondering deeply about what was going to happen in the future. If Poppy got her memory back then would she forgive Branch? Branch thought no. Many thoughts raced around his head like they were on a racing track. Branch was getting migraines from these thoughts. His train of thought was broken by Guy's empathetic voice and the Snack pack's voices.

"Don't worry, we will work extra hard for her to remember you," Guy spoke gently.

You can't... - Branch thought.

"Thanks," He plastered a smile "It's getting late, you guys should go to your pods,"

Biggie yawned then spoke.

"I am feeling pretty tired, are you tired Mr Dinkles?"

"Mew," Mr Dinkles responded to his question.

They all waved goodbye to Branch as they went out of his bunker. Branch travelled to his bedroom and laid down deep in thought. He tossed and turned but he couldn't sleep. Next thing he knows is that when he looks at his hands... It was losing colour... Branch gave an aghast look at his hands and tried to sleep after that.

--------------------------------------------------------------

AFTER A FEW DAYS

Poppy was finally sent out of the hospital, the Snack Pack and Branch were waiting for her. Branch had his hands in his pockets so that the Snack Pack wouldn't see his colourless hands. Poppy just went out of the room. Poppy looked at the Snack Pack and Branch blankly.

"It's fine, they are your friends, " The doctor tried to calm her

Poppy walked over to them and the doctor waved Poppy and the others goodbye.

"Hey Poppy!" The Snack Pack friendly greeted her.

"Hey?" She has a confused tone in her voice.

"How are you feeling?" Branch asked being worried.

"I feel good thanks, " Poppy replied without looking at him.

Branch unintendedly held her hand because whenever they walk they always connect hands. Poppy felt uncomfortable and immediately detached from his hands.

"Don't touch me please," Poppy stated

"Oh...Sorry, " Branch apologised.

The Snack Pack gave a look at him and he just rubbed the side of his arm.

"Oh my gah," Smidge exclaimed silently

"Damn..." Cooper whispered.

They continued to hang out with Poppy because they tried really hard for her to remember them, the Snack Pack were filled with aspiration, but Branch still felt hopeless, his colourless hands was reaching his wrist.

"Hey, I asked Poppy if she want to stay at you place for the night, that could maybe get her memory back of you,"

"What? Are you crazy? She refuses to take my hand and you ask her to stay at my bunker,"

"Yea, pretty much,"

Guy gave an innocent face at Branch.

"If this backfires, you will be sorry..." Branch warned Guy.

Guy gulped and listened to Branch's word.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

When the bleak night fell, Poppy came into Branch's abode. Poppy was at Branch's spare room sleeping while Branch was still awake drinking his coffee and contemplating about what he was going to do. He could not live without her, even though he tried... He just couldn't. He loved her more than anything. It just hurt inside that she couldn't recall him. What if she stays like this?

Branch looked away from his coffee and began to grasp his cloth on his clothing tightly. Many flashbacks of him and Poppy were roaming around his head and reminding of how he messed up big time. Flashbacks of how Poppy and Branch played tag with each other in his bunker, flashbacks of how they snuggled on a cold and dreary night, flashbacks on how they shared theit first kiss. Lots of memories were stored in his place and outside of troll village. Branch wouldn't cry, he wouldn't dare to. It was not someing to cry about, well, that's what Branch thought.

Poppy saw him sitting all alone by himself. Even though she didn't have her memory, she remembers this place very well but not the memories they made.

"Branch right?" Poppy came out of her room.

"Yeah, that's me, why are you up? you should be sleeping,"

"I was going to ask you the same question,"

Poppy sat down next to him.

"Sooo, why are you up?" Poppy asked him

"This may be weird to say but... I miss you..."

Poppy didn't say anything but listen to what he had to say. Branch winced and just chuckled.

"This is cringe...I should probably stop,"

Branch got up but Poppy stopped him by yanking on his arm

"No, no, I wanna listen,"

"We made many recollections here, I just..." Branch paused and sighed, "It sucks, knowing that you f*cked up and letting your love go just like that, " Branch snapped his fingers.

"That must feel really bad huh?"

Branch nodded his head "But don't worry, it's not your fault,"

Branch sighed and closed his eyes. Poppy, without thinking, she wrapped his arms around him. Hugging him, surprisingly felt right for her. Branch's eyes widened, he hasn't felt this affection for such a long time when he needed to feel it.

"Why are you doing that..?" Branch asked mumbling.

"I... I don't know, but I don't want to let go..."

Branch immediately so the same to her. He needed her hugs at a time like this, it was calming to him.

------------------------------------------------------

AFTER A FEW WEEKS

"So that happened?" Guy asked Branch

"Mhm! What if she remembers me again?"

"Um, I don't know, she remembers the Snack Pack and I asked her the other day if she remembers you and..." Guy paused

"And?"

"She doesn't..."

Branch's smile was wiped off his face. His hope drained out of him. His struggled to cope with this situation. His colourless hands was progressing to his arm. Guy noticed it and gave a yelp.

"AhHhH!" Guy screamed auto-tuned. "Branch... You're losing your colour!"

"So? It doesn't matter now, everything is pointless at this rate,"

Guy had to stop Branch's colour from running out so he had to stop him from having these bad thoughts. He only had one thought in mind.

Guy's, without knowing, hand went across Branch's face.

"WHAT THE F*CK?!"

"Sorry I had to do it!! Don't lose hope! I got a plan!"

Guy throwed Branch his oak bowl-back acoustic guitar. Branch just gave a puzzled look at him.

"Why...?" Branch asked

"You'll see, SUKI!!" Guy called out when he was left Branch's bunker

"WHAT?!?!" Suki bellowed to answer Guy

"Get Poppy, she still doesn't remember Branch and I am not going to die knowing that they don't remember each other,"

"A bit deep there but okay!" Suki joyfully went to get Poppy.

Poppy was just calmly chilling in her pod until Suki burst in though her door which made Poppy jump.

"Jeez Suki you scared me!"

Poppy put a hand to her chest.

"Can you come with me really quickly?" Suki asked her.

"Why?" Poppy raised an eyebrow

"No questions! Urgent! Please come with me!"

Suki grabbed Poppy by her wrist really hard. Poppy gave a few yelps while going out of her pod. Suki was grabbing Poppy's wrist so hard that her fingernails were digging into her skin.

Meanwhile, Branch was still confused on what he was going to do on the guitar.

"You still haven't told me what do to with this wooden f*cker that I am holding,"

"Woah, did you need to curse?"

"Mhm, cuz I am annoyed at you,"

"Well, I am about to give you what you are going to do,"

Guy gave Branch a sheet of notes and melodies and Branch's eyes feasted on it carefully.

He played some of the first notes that the sheet asked him to play and he already knew what was happening.

"Guy... You are a genius! This might work!"

Branch hugged him tighter than ever until Guy was struggling to breath.

"Welcome!" Guy said in a strangled voice.

Branch let go of Guy as he saw Poppy approach him.

"Don't worry, I am here to support you,"

"Thanks,"

Branch took a deep breath as their eyes connected. Branch felt the strings so he could begin playing. As the melody started to play, Poppy had a smile on her face.

Branch:
You with the sad eyes
Don't be discouraged, oh I realize
It's hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
The darkness inside you
Can make you feel so small

Poppy felt something, something that called to her and made her head hurt just a bit because there was a voice ringing and playing in her head.

Show me a smile then
Don't be unhappy
Can't remember when
I last saw you laughing
This world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
Just call me up
'Cause I will always be there

And I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you

Those last three words was all it took for her memory to function again. Poppy paused for a minute to let all of the sweet memories in.

Branch was hoping she would sing the next verse. Branch closed his eyes and his ears dropped down since he didn't hear her voice but...

Poppy:
So don't be afraid

Branch immediately opened them and tears of satisfaction filled his eyes.

Broppy:
to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful

Branch:
I see your true colors
Shining through (Poppy: true colors)

Branch:
I see your true colors

Broppy:
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors

Branch:
True colors are beautiful (Poppy: they're beautiful)

Branch:
Like a rainbow

Poppy:
Oh oh oh oh oh like a rainbow

They held hands as the music stopped. They smiled widely at each other.

"Do you..?"

Poppy nodded.

"Really?"

Poppy nodded once again.

"Yes... I remember all of it now..."

Before Poppy could say another word, Branch pulled her in my her waist into a passionate and I-Miss-You-So-Much kiss. Poppy instantly melted into it.

As the two lovers continued the kiss, Guy said something.

"And that is how you get your lover to remember you again," Guy smiled

"Amen,"

Branch and Poppy parted from each other.

"I am so sorry what happened weeks ago, I shouldn't have stormed out and caused you any worry," Poppy apologies

"I'm sorry too, I shouldn't have started that arguement in the first place... But it doesn't matter... at least you are still with me..."

Their foreheads connected with each other and their bond grew stonger ever since that day.

A/N: THAT'S A F*CKING WRAP!
