Later that night; Third Person P.O.V

Poppy was laying on her bed remembering the day she first met Branch.

Flashback

Five year old Poppy was walking around the wood, til she heard a voice of a male singing. It was a voice she has never heard before, it sounded like an angel. She followed the voice seeing an seven year old grey troll singing by the river.

You could never know what it's like

Your blood like winter freezes just like ice

And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you

You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use

Poppy would sit there forever listening to him sing. It's like she was already in love with him already even though they haven't met, at least not yet.

And did you think this fool could never win?

Well look at me, I'm coming back again

I got a taste of love in a simple way

And if you need to know while I'm still standing you just fade away

Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did

Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid

I'm still standing after all this time

Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

Once I never could hope to win

You starting down the road leaving me again

The threats you made were meant to cut me down

And if our love was just a circus you'd be a clown by now

Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did

Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid

I'm still standing after all this time

Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did

Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid

I'm still standing after all this time

Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

Poppy came out of her hiding place and approached the grey troll.

Poppy: Your voice is amazing

The grey troll jumped and turned to the small princess.

Branch: Princess Poppy?

Poppy: You've heard of me?

Branch: Course I have. I'm sure all the trolls to.

Poppy: Yes, but I've never seen you around before. Do you live around here?

Branch: Yea, but I live alone.

Poppy: You seem a little too young to live alone.

Branch: I can handle it.

Poppy: Alright then.

Trolls: Young miss, your father's looking for you.

Poppy: By the way, what's your name?

Branch: It's Branch.

Troll: Young miss!

Poppy: Coming! Hope to see you around sometime. Bye-bye.

Poppy ran off to catch up with one of the villagers, leaving Branch standing there looking at her as she left. He couldn't help but blush.

Branch: *thinks: She's so cute.*

End of Flashback; Poppy's P.O.V

That was the first time we've met, & I haven't heard him sing since that day. But, when I saw him that day, I felt like I've loved him for that long. I hate the fact that I've been lying to myself and my friends. I'm sure that Branch haves the same thought as I do. Oh, how do I know that for sure? I decided to call it a day, & went to sleep.

Branch's P.O.V

I can't stop thinking about the day we first met, it was practically the best day of my life. Back then, other young trolls would avoid me & keep walking, but she didn't. She was the first person to ever talk to me. That was I started to fall for her. But, ever since she met that meditating idiot, it's like she falling for him. Even if she does, I will still love her.
