( Branch is blue) special New Year !

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

I'm not too sure how long it's been

But I got caught up in the game

My heart is melting like the snow

My brain is in a haze

When I hold your gaze

In this weather

You're my sweater

You could keep me warm for days

Sitting at his desk, Branch bit the tip of his pencil, re-reading his poem. He did not know what to think about it ... He put it in a closet just as someone was knocking on the door, it was probably the girl he was talking about in his poem. He smiled and got up to open the door for Poppy.

- How are my favorite troll today? Asked the pink troll when he came out of his bunker, a scarf around his neck.

- Well, last night, the mouse you wanted me to heal ran through everything in the living room and when I finally caught it, I put it back in its cage before going to bed. It was 2 o'clock in the morning.

She laughed:

- I hope you'll be able to stay awake until the countdown tonight!

He smiled and shrugged:

- You underestimate me, Princess.

- Branchie, you know I'm queen now? She asked, coming closer to him.

- For me, you're my princess. He replied, grazing the arm of the pretty pink troll.

- Hey, two lovebirds, are we going to village or will you continue to flirt all morning?

The "lovebirds" turned to the SnackPack behind them. They blushed and their friends laughed.

- Anyway, you're super cute! Commented DJSuki, I'd love to leave you Poppy for the day because she's talking about you all the time at our sleepover last night, but unfortunately, we need her help to organize tonight's party.

- But precisely, yesterday Poppy to propose to come here and ask for help of "the most fantastic troll of the universe". Chenille explained, smiled.

Branch smiled triumphantly and turned to his girlfriend:

- It's true, Princess? You think I'm fantastic?

Poppy looked up at the sky:

- I think my friends have forgotten the part or I asked them not to repeat what I had told to Branch.

He laughed and kissed her on the cheek before accepting their offer:

- I think "the most fantastic troll in the universe" wants to help you prepare for tonight's party.

After spending the day preparing for the party. (and defuse the bear traps that Branch had set around the village to protect them - what his friends had found cute, but a bit too exaggerated -) Poppy announced the beginning of the evening party and all the Trolls started dancing to the DJSuki's music, enthusiasm. Branch was sitting next to the table where there were cupcakes, Poppy came to join him.

- What are you doing? She asked, sitting on a mushroom next to him.

- I thought how delicious the cupcakes on this table were.

He took one of them and took a bite. A soft music started to play, Poppy shrugged, a smirk:

- If you're busy eating your cupcake, I guess you can not dance a slow with me.

Branch threw his cupcake behind him without looking where it would land and grabbed her hands to take her to the dance floor:

- I was not too hungry finally, he explained as an excuse, Poppy laughed and Branch took her in his arms. She put her head on his shoulder, they began to dance slowly against each other.

Branch looked over him and rested his forehead against her's, laughing:

- The destiny wants me to kiss you, he whispered, we're under the mistletoe.

- Shut up and kiss me then!

That's What he did. He put his lips against her's and kissed her passionately. Their hair intertwined without them being able to control them. Poppy suddenly withdrew while rubbing her belly.

- You're okay? He asked, worried.

- Yes, just a little stomach ache, it will pass. I had to eat something and I have trouble digesting.

He frowned and asked if she wanted to sit for a little moment, but former King Pepy had just asked for silence and the pink troll joined him.

- The count starts ... now! Cried the king, 10 ... 9 ......

The Trolls began to count, except Branch, who was looking at Poppy worriedly. She did not seem to be well ...

8 ....

Branch approached the stage ...

7 ...

Poppy had to stop counting ....

6 ....

Branch began to speed up ...

5 ...

Poppy was starting to really feel bad ....

4 ....

Branch, without thinking, went up the stage and went to the Queen ...

3 ....

Poppy felt two arms around her, black enveloped her ...

2 ....

- Poppy! Poppy! She's fainted! Cried Branch, catching her before she fell.

The count stopped immediately. Only Cooper's voice shouted "Happy New Year!" Before remarking that the Queen had fainted in Branch's arms.

- Call an ambulance! Pepy shouted as he approached his daughter.

* * *

Branch was circling in the hallway of the hospital, head in hand. He was trying not to panic, but was too worried that Poppy was catching something serious.

- Branch, come and sit down. Said Biggie, If you want, you can hold Mr.Dinkles for a few minutes?

But he did not think that holding Mr. Dinkles would calm him down. He sat down anyway and started to play a song in his head.

Please, tell me she's okay! 

Suddenly, a door opened and Dr. Plum smiled at them:

- Queen Poppy would like to see "Branch Timberlake"

As soon as she finished her sentence Branch would get up and go to Poppy's room. He climbed the stairs at full speed:

- Poppy? He exclaimed as he opened the door.

Poppy smiled at him, she was crying, and Branch immediately worried and came to grab her hand:

- Are you okay?

Poppy laughed, Branch frowned.

- It's not funny! He yelled, Are you okay, yes or no?

Poppy smiled and finally answered:

- The Doctor told me that this "disease" would go away after 9 months.

Branch understood and widened his eyes, opening his mouth...

The SnackPack and King Pepy heard suddenly a big "BOM!" . Dr. Plum smiles at them:

- The reaction of all the new fathers.
