General POV

It all started at the top of the mushroom at the end of the movie...

"Oh I can't believe you're now happy!" Poppy exclaimed. "You don't know how am I so proud of you right now..."

Branch chuckled and answered, "really? Hehe, thanks!"

"Also thank you too, mah best friend!"

"For what?" Branch asked with a little disappointment because of the 'best friend' term Poppy just said.

"For saving us. For saving everyone." Poppy answered, smiling and placing her hand on his shoulder.

Branch blushed a little, seeing Poppy's hand touching his shoulder. "That's nothing," he replied.

Suddenly, Smidge pulled them down from the top. Unexpectedly, a woman came to see Branch.

"Um... Are you Mr. Branch?" the woman said.

"Uhh yeah... I'm Branch." He answered with a little curiosity.

"I would like you to sign this contract."

"Um...why?" he asked, raising one of his eyebrows.

"Just sign it."

"Okay...?" Branch answered as he signed the contract.

"Great! From now on, you will be an actor. I'm Ms. Aspen Hazelnut and I'll be your manager!"

Branch was shocked on what Aspen said. "Wait, what?! You didn't even told me that this is a contract of being an actor! I don't even know anything about acting!"

"Sorry but, look around you."

Branch looks around nervously and sees a lot of fangirls and a lot of cameramen.

"Oh....no..."

"Omigosh my Branchie's an actor!" Poppy squealed and cheered for Branch.

"Uhh..." Branch didn't said anything. Instead, he covered his face with a leaf in embarrassment.

~~✨~~

After a year...

A luxury car was coming near the red carpet and random fangirls began to shout.

"BRANCH MAH IDOL WAAAHHH!!" squealed a troll girl

"Be mine!!!" screamed the other troll girl.

"Oh my gah I'M GONNA DIE!!!" Another troll then collapsed and the guards began to carry her to the nearest clinic.

The car door opens then Branch and his manager, Aspen, gets out of the luxury car.

He puts up his glasses and moved his eyebrow. "Hey, girls," he said, giving a flirty smirk.

"AHHHHHH!!!!!!" the fangirls began to squeal so loud.

"Bodyguards, protect Mr. Branch." Aspen whispered.

"Yes, Ma'am," the bodyguards answered, following what she've ordered.

The crazy fans are trying to touch Branch but, the bodyguards are doing their best to protect him.

Suddenly, a photographer approached Branch, asking, "sir, can I take you a picture?"

"Well, of course!" Branch replied without hesitation and winked. Soon, he began to pose and smile at the camera

"Oh my gosh he's so handsome!!!" A random troll gay shouted.

~~✨~~

Just after walking the red carpet, Branch went inside the Arena for his performance in a show. He went to his room for his makeup.

"Sophie, make sure you'll make him handsome!" Aspen commanded Sophie, Branch's stylist and fashion designer.

"Yes, Ms. Aspen," she answered, putting gel on his hair to make him look cooler.

Branch looked at his watch and asked, "what time is the performance?"

"About 7pm, Branch," Aspen answered.

"Good," he answered. "We're not late."

~~✨~~

Not any longer, the show started and Branch will be the guest for the show.

The actress, Skylar Rosemary, who is the host, welcomed her guest. "Please welcome, Branch Timberlake!"

"AAAHHHH!!!!" every fans squealed as they heard their idol's precious name.

Branch began to dance at the stage with backup dancers.

"This is dedicated for the girl I love!" Branch said-secretly telling that it was actually Poppy-while dancing.

♪ Oh, her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shinin'
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday
Yeah

I know, I know
When I compliment her she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so
Sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me, "Do I look okay?"
I say,

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause, girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are.
Yeah ♪

Branch ended the song and striked a pose.

*inside Poppy's pod*

"Oooooh! Branchie's so adorable!" Poppy cheered as she saw her best friend at the television.

"Woah! That's a great performance Branch!" Skylar said from the television.

"Thanks. It's all because of my inspiration." He paused and faced at the camera. "My love, I love 'ya so much."

Poppy blushed and smiled. She's not sure if Branch loves her as his best friend or he loves her more than a friend-or someone else.

*back at the studio*

"Now, let's play games, together with the audience!" Skylar said. She called a girl and the girl went up on the stage. "Okay, what will you say about Branch?" she asked.

"Uhh... Sexy!!!" the girl replied with a squeal. Branch chuckled on what his fan said and everyone squealed. "C-can I hug you, Branchie?" she asked shyly.

Branch did a hug gesture and the girl squealed. Without hesitation, she quickly gave him a hug and screamed. Everyone then also squealed in excitement.

"Okay, next.... Hmm.... You." Skylar said, pointing to another girl.

Knowing that it was her, the girl screamed in happiness, went on stage and quickly kissed Branch's cheeks.

"So, what will you say about Branch?" Skylar asked once again.

"Li-like what she said... SEXY!!!" The girl squealed and Branch chuckled again.

"So Branch? What will you say?"

"Hmm... Try another one." Branch said and smirked.

*Poppy's pod*

"AAAAAHHHH!!!" Poppy squealed, seeing how handsome and hot her best friend is.

Skylar called another fangirl and she went to the stage kinda shy but still squealing.

"So? What will you say about Branch?" Skylar asked while laughing.

"SEXY AAAAHHHH!!!" She answered.

"Woah Branch. Looks like everyone thinks you're sexy eh?" Skylar said. "So, what will you say about it?"

"Hmm..you all said I was sexy huh? Well, who's sexy now?"

"OH MY GOSH PLEASE SAY 'ME'!!!" Poppy said while squealing so hard.

"Me. Sexy indeed," Branch said flirtingly and gave a breathtaking wink.

"EEEEKK!!!" Poppy squealed so hard that she became very red. She covered her face with a pillow so hard and she began to throw her pillows.

"Ehem Poppy?" former King Peppy unexpectedly came and smirked.

Poppy quickly began to fix herself as King Peppy saw her being wild.

"Uhh..I...uhh..." Poppy said, kind of ashamed of what she's doing.

"Goodluck on fangirling!" King Peppy said and chuckled.

"Wh-what dad?!" Poppy exclaimed and giggled.

Branch's POV

Woah. Just after a year, my whole life just changed. It made my shy and stubborn side turn into a new Branch. A Branch that is sociable and confident. Everything changed just because of a single contract; a contract that made me become like this: a popular actor.

But until now, my kind and caring side had never changed. I still hang out with my friends, especially Poppy. I still love that girl no matter what. And I never gave up on loving her. But, she only sees me as a friend. But that's fine, as long as I'm with her.
