The first time I ever met Sunny was a really long time ago. Back when I was 7 years old, other kids would make fun of me for being an orphan. Indeed, I never had the two important people in my life; my parents. Apparently, every 7 year old thinks a kid's life is supposed to have parents, all because they them but I don't. Pretty cliche, I know.

Sunny was always there to support me all the way. He kept his promise, which was a hair swear where our hair would intertwine and swear to each other to keep our promises.'

Sunny swore to always be by my side.

And I swore to try my best to be positive.

But for now, I can't keep that promise when River is always talking about her love perks between me and Sunny. I just kept my arms crossed and roll my eyes. Typical River. Sometimes while we go scavenging, I could tell that Sunny wasn't really listening to River and sneaking glances at me. Not that I don't mind though. I looked at him for a couple of seconds and I caught looking straight at me. We were both looking at each other behind River's back. It felt strange and amazing for some reason, and it seems like it's been going on for eternity. But then River caught us at the last second.

"Um, Sunny? I think I see a few fruits in that tree," River said to stop us from gazing at each other. Sunny looked up at a tree and saw Troll Fruities. Troll Fruities are honestly my favorite. They tasted sweet and ended with a bit of a sour taste that was just perfect enough to make you shiver.

Sunny smiled, "Alrighty then. I'll get it for you two." He walked towards the tree to climb it up. I laughed.

"What?" He asked.
"I think you're forgetting the purpose of your hair," I said while using my hair to grab a tree branch and lift me up to it. Sunny finally understood me and used his hair to lift himself beside me. "Great thinking, Miss Leaf." Leaf was my last name.

I smiled ever so lightly. But then I looked back down at my grey hands and lost it. I keep forgetting that I wasn't a colorful troll like him. I'm grey. I'm dull. I'm nothing compared to him. Sunny saw the tiny frown on my face and lost his smile, too. He was about to say something but then River lifted herself up to us. "What's taking you guys so long?"

"Sorry, River. I was just trying to comfort Beatrice—" he said but got interrupted by River again who laid her index finger on his soft lips. "No need to apologize, Sunny." She said.

I just ignored them and grabbed a handful of Troll Fruities. They all had different patterns and colors which fitted perfectly with the environment. I handed one for Sunny and one for River who I gave a little bit of a glare at. She was not the only one who ticked me off. Though, even if she's grey, she still never liked me and I never liked her. I never liked anyone at all, except for Sunny of course.

"Hey Beatrice? Aren't these your favorite?" Sunny asked while holding up the fruit. I just crossed my arms and scoffed, "No," I lied.

"Beatrice, I've seen you swallow down these like a trollosaur before. I know you. Therefore, you can have mine." He held the fruit up to me, but I just pushed it away. I can't possibly take such an amazing fruit from such an amazing troll. "No thanks, Sunny. I'd rather starve to death anyway."

"Alright..." he said. He never ate his fruit. He probably feels ashamed of himself for not giving the fruit to me. He's just trying to be nice, Beatrice... Give him a chance for once. But I didn't because I was too much of a coward. He probably changed his mind anyway.

"It's getting dark. I don't want to any predators to be surrounding us at night. So... I have to go to my bunker now." I chuckled awkwardly. Everyone had bunkers, except for Sunny who had a pod out in the open. Obviously. Despite the fact that Sunny was always nice to me, I'd  only have been nice to him for 15 years. Everyone else? I despised them. I despise Sunny just a little bit when it comes to being annoying with his singing and dancing and hugging me tightly until I'm out of breath and it almost chokes me to death. Maybe that was his purpose.

I left Sunny alone with River. I regret it, I really do, but I also really don't want predators to eat us alive.

I stood in front of my bunker door and added the code to it for access. The door opened as I entered my dull home. I grabbed the giant lever which turned on all the lights in here. They were solar powered by the way. Through the halls, all you could see were some packages of survival.

I headed inside a room I like to call "Beatrice's Hideout From Reality." I flopped down onto a beanie couch and sighed as I stared into the ceiling. I reached for something on my bedside table that wasn't at the side of my bed, and grabbed something from on there, which was an Infinite Flower. It's called "infinite" for a reason and one reason only; It never dies. Sunny picked this one up for me. Each month, he would bring me these kinds of flowers since they only bloom monthly.

The Infinite Flower has sparkly and colorful  petals. It's leaves were slightly curled from the edge but that's just the beauty of it. I always cherished these flowers. Sometimes I would stare at them all day and tell myself Sunny cannot know you love him. Sunny cannot know you love him. Because if I did, it would probably ruin our friendship and Sunny would either reject me instead.

And here I am staring at this magnificent flower again. "Sunny cannot know you love him."
