Chapter 2
And so the ceremony would soon begin, upon the altar Branch waited there with a confident attitude but still nervous to see his future wife walking down the aisle. The groomsmen supported him by his side while the bridesmaids all hyped them up for the moment. The ceremony officiant was Woofin, yet again. Primrose stood by Viva's side trying to contain her emotions to herself. Moments before the event came to be, King Gristle took his seat at the very end of the venue behind numerous rows of Pop Trolls, Disco Trolls, Trollstopians, bounty hunters, delegates, Troll Leaders, and extended family members.
Conductor Trollzart from the Classical Trolls removed himself from his seat and sat down on a stool. He cracked his knuckles and began to play 'Here Comes The Bride' on a harpsichord as he waited for the signal. There she was, Queen Poppy in a full bridal gown being accompanied by her father, King Peppy. Several Glowflies and Starflies highlighted their path down the aisle. CJ and Priscila scattered poppy flowers around the venue while Keith snapped tree branches in half and gifted them to Hickory, Val Thundershock, and Legsly.
"She looks beautiful." Primrose said to herself as she cuddled with Viva from above. Branch on the other hand was at a loss for words for the moment as Poppy approached him and stopped in the spot across from him. Trollzart bowed down for the people and returned to his seat. After a small applause break. Woofin allowed himself to initiate the ceremony, "Welcome family, friends, and loved ones. We are gathered here today in this beautiful evening to witness the union of the stunning Queen of Pop, Poppy, and the handsome youngest member of the boyband known as Brozone, Branch."
Poppy and Branch stared at each other speechlessly they simply admired the beauty and uniqueness of their partners. Woofin held his hands together and spoke, "I took an only course this time around so I am fully aware of the guidelines." He continued, "These two started as nothing but, excuse me for the choice of words, acquaintances."
The crowd gasped, some laughed and a Pop Troll passed out. Branch rolled his eyes and Poppy snorted a bit at the comment. Woofin kept the same expression as always as he wanted to resume his speech, "Branch was the village paranoid hermit while Poppy was the enthusiastic, impulsive princess. It took them several adventures and hard times together to form the bond they share to this day. But with the simple use of three words, everything changes in one troll's life." He hinted at the word being 'I Love You', "Now this isn't the beginning of a new relationship it's an acknowledgment of the next chapter in their lives as one... To be honest, we've all waited for it to happen and no one is complaining it finally is."
"Darn right!" Delta Dawn said from her seat.
Trollex gave them a thumbs up and a wink, "I've always been a fan!"
"They truly are adorable together." Quincy commented to his wife.
Essence nodded her head and awed at the couple, "Reminds me of us when we were younger..."
"WOOFIN! Hurry up, my man! I wanna see the kiss!" Queen Stellar yelled in an extremely low voice while tapping her wrist.
Woofin glared at his queen and simply tried to contain his anger for himself again, "Allow us to move on to the next step, "Before we officiate this ceremony. The couple will address some words they've prepared for each other."
"I can start." Poppy volunteered as she knew Branch would most likely feel more comfortable after that. She unfolded a note she picked from her hair and spoke, "Branch, from the moment I laid my eyes on you I knew something was different... At first, I thought it was the expired candy I ate from Trolloween but no... It was like butterflies. And then the time came when I really needed your help and since then our relationship developed into something much bigger and meaningful. I'm grateful for every second of it and I love you for it." The crowd was awed at Poppy's speech, Biggie sobbed into John Dory's arms. King Peppy cuddled his wife and daughter on the side.
Branch wiped one tear after the powerful speech coming from Poppy so then it came his turn to speak. Much like Poppy, he grabbed the paper from his hair and gulped, "Wow. What can I say, the day has finally come. I'm not that great with planning words this way it usually just comes out of my mouth when it happens so... I decided to do something a little different." He cleared his throat and spoke, "We found our true colors
Shinning through and through
We may not be perfect like others
But Poppy, I'm the one for you."
He may not be the most talented poet but he did make the people emotional, the guests applauded his efforts and cheered on him. Poppy teared up and smiled at him, mouthing the words "Love you too."
"Great." Woofin clapped his hands together and signaled to the entrance, "Bring in the rings."
Fuzzbert marched down the aisle with a cushion above his patch of hair and both rings lying on top of it. He kneeled before the altar and allowed them to resume the ceremony, "This ring is a promise of commitment to one another. It's a symbol of unending love." Woofin turned around to Branch and questioned, "Branch, do you take Poppy as your beloved wife?"
He picked up the ring and softly stuck it on her fingers, "I do."
The officant looked at the bride and asked the same question, "Do you, Poppy take Branch as your lawful husband?"
"I do!" Poppy shoved the ring into his finger, eager to kiss him.
"You may now kiss the-" Woofin is interrupted as Poppy lunged at Branch and kissed him devotedly. Branch twirled her around and held her in his arms. Primrose's Gecko crew released a loud boosted bass sound effect that was emitted all across the globe with a gigantic firework glitter saying, "BROPPY 4 LIFE!"
The sound effect and the glitter letter reached every corner of the universe. It reached Bergen Town, Vacay Island, the glass asteroid even the Spiral Groove System. Chaz saw it from his tiny hut in a swamp, Creek's and Chef's skeletons dropped their jaws at the sight, and Archer and the Party Crashers raised a glass of energy drinks. Crimp and her handsome new boyfriend made out to the fireworks. Even Velvet and Veneer witnessed it.
Veneer looked out the window from their prison cell and said, "Wow look, Vel! Those little trolls got married!"
"I don't care about other people's accomplishments, Veneer." Velvet responded from her bunk as she faced a wall angrily.
Long story short, everyone knew Broppy was married now. After five whole minutes, they stopped kissing and they could initiate the festivities. Branch was covered in lipstick stamps as he breathed heavily, "Phew that was intense."
"LET THE RECEPTION BEGIN!" Poppy yelled from the altar as everyone rushed to the main lounge. Legsly skipped over everyone with her tall leg abilities, "FINALLY! I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THOSE SHRIMP BRUSQUETTAS!"
Branch helped Poppy down as they made their way together on a 'Happily Married' beetle toward the reception. Every troll was extremely happy for them as well since their union was inevitable and extremely predictable over all the troll nations.
