Brandy and Poppy talk about Bruce and Branch and Brandy gives Poppy some helpful insight...

Poppy was on a flying bug as it took her to Vacay Island and once there she walked towards the cantina and saw a couple of her nephews.

''Hey Aunt Poppy.'' One called.

''Hello.'' She called.

She made it to the cantina and walked in to see it was chill and she went up to where Brandy was.

''Hey Brandy!'' Poppy called.

The tall muppet looked at her and smiles. ''Hello Poppy, if you're looking for Branch, he's out with Bruce.'' She answered.

''Nah actually I came to see you.'' Poppy answered.

Brandy smiles at her. ''Aww really?''

''Yeah, I need your help, the trolls are having this party, and I told them I would bring some homemade drinks, and I was hoping you would teach me how to make some drinks and I want to spend time with you.'' Poppy explained.

''What makes you think I know how to make drinks?'' Asked Brandy leaning on her arm looking at Poppy.

''I assumed you did you know you working here in a bar? Was that wrong?'' Asked Poppy.

Brandy laughs. ''I'm messing with you and no it wasn't. Yes, I do know how to make drinks. What kind?'' Asked Brandy.

''Something sweet and bubbly, then something with a bit fruity and sour.'' Poppy said remembering what they wanted.

''Alright, give me about 10 minutes to finish up then the next guy comes in to relieve me and we can work in the kitchen.'' Brandy smiles.

''Sure, need any help?'' Asked Poppy.

''Nah I got this here just sit here and have a fruity drink on the house your favorite.'' Brandy smiles.

10 minutes later Brandy switched off with another muppet and she goes over to Poppy and held out her hand.

Poppy sits on Brandy's hand as she they go into another part of the cantina which leads to a homey area.

''Welcome to mine and Bruce's place.'' Brandy welcomed.

''Woah nice place.'' Poppy was impressed.

''Would you mind giving me a tour first?'' Asked Poppy looking up.

''Sure thing.'' Brandy showed her around.

''This is the living room, and over here is the bathroom, then over here these 2 rooms one for the boys and the other one for Breeze, then in this room.'' She stepped in and turned on the light and Poppy saw a nice cozy troll cave it was cozy and Poppy saw posters from BroZone Days and pictures of him and his brothers back in the day and there were some recent pictures of him and his brothers and one of him and Brandy when they got married along with a couch, office chair and desk and a big tv.

''This is where Bruce hangs when he's not with me and kids, working, or surfing.'' She said.

Poppy saw a ribbon for best surfer.

''Woah, no wonder, sentimental huh?'' Asked Poppy.

''Yes, he loves keeping memories.'' She smiles as they left the room.

They made it to the kitchen where Brandy placed Poppy on the counter as she pulls out a big book.

''Alright here is my book of drinks I got. They range from sweet and fruity to sour and dry.'' She answered.

Poppy flipped though the book and found one called spiked apple cider. ''This seems like a good one.'' Poppy replied.

I'll grab the ingredients and we can start working on it you taste it and see how it tastes.'' Brandy smiles as she went to the cabinets and pulls out some stuff and she looked at Poppy.

''Alright we just follow the instructions.'' Brandy replied.

They got to work on mixing the stuff in the drinks and Brandy grabbed a couple of shot of apple tequila and placed them in there as Poppy added the apple flavor.

''So, Brandy can I ask you something?'' Asked Poppy.

''Sure, I'll try to answer the best I can.'' Brandy said as she stirred the drink.

''What's it like being married to Bruce?'' 

Brandy smiles happily. ''It's great for the most part, very laid back and he is great with balancing the restaurant, the kids and our personal love life.'' She replied.

''Woah, so you guys never fight?'' Asked Poppy.

''Hm, you know we do but not as often when we were first married, we fought a lot but then we would make up for it later one.'' Brandy smiles.

''Sounds like you two are perfect together.'' Poppy smiles.

''We are. So how are things with you and Branch?'' Asked Brandy as they tasted the cider.

''Woah this is so good!''

''I'm glad now onto the next one.'' Brandy smiles.

Poppy was looking through the book.

''Things are great, I mean I never thought me and Branch would ever be together, we were opposites.'' Poppy replied.

''Oh? I thought you two were love at first sight?'' Brandy replied.

''No, see back then he was gray and pretty mean to me. I would throw a party, and he would get upset, I handmade invites for him only to smash them in front of me. He kept pushing away, but I just wanted him to be happy. Then we would fight, and all of my friends told me to give up, but I didn't and then there was Creek and boy him and Branch hated each other I had no idea why until later.'' Popy explained.

''Ahh classic.'' Brandy was making another drink and looked at her having an idea. ''And who is Creek?''

''He a pop troll purple with yellow pants he loves yoga and he always at peace... I admit I had a crush on him back then... he was the one I was thinking I would be end up with because he was nice, sweet, and cared about me... But then he betrayed me and the other trolls by giving us to the bergans to save his own skin.'' She sighed but shrugged.

 Brandy with a slight smile and got down resting her arms on the counter. ''So let me get this straight you and Branch would fight all the time, he pushes you away... it's pretty obvious he had feelings for you the whole time.'' 

Poppy looked at her and smiles. ''I know that now but back then I had no idea.''

''Branch was only pushing you away because he liked you but was scared of getting rejected and the only reason him and Creek hate each other is because they both had a thing for you. Honestly anyone could have seen that.'' Brandy explained as her and Poppy tased the drink.

Poppy's face scrunched a bit and nodded. ''That will work.'' She smiles.

Brandy wrote the recipes down and got a small basket and placed the smaller items in it. Brandy got her and Poppy some drinks as they talked and drank.

''Yes, but then when we became friends' things just seemed to click and he's come a long way since then plus I was also gray, and we brought back each other true colors.'' Poppy smiles.

''I love a sweet love story, and yours is by far my favorite. Not to mention you went with him to find Floyd.'' Brandy smiles and saw Poppy was a bit tipsy.

''Yeah... I guess the real reason I was asking how married life is... is because during a wedding me and Branch were about to leave when he grabbed my hand and said let's get married... he meant to say our friends but ended up slipping up.'' She said.

''Hehe means he wants to marry you; do you have problem with that?'' Asked Brandy.

''No, but I mean it's so weird to think of getting married to Branch, I mean we just started dating and he's already talking about getting married. I want it eventually but the fact he wants to get married... what if I'm never ready for it... I don't want to lose him.'' Poppy sighed.

''I don't know Branch that well but from what I've seen he loves you and I don't think he will leave you... You know I was pretty hesitant to marry Bruce... I never thought of myself as a married woman but when he proposed to me... It felt so special and wonderful I couldn't say no.'' She smiles.

''Did you get married right away?'' Asked Poppy finishing her drink.

''No, we waited for a year and a half before actually getting married, but it was the best thing I've ever done.'' Brandy smiles.

''Thanks Brandy.'' Poppy smiles.

''No problem I like bonding with you.'' Brandy smiles.

Meanwhile Bruce and Branch came back from surfing. ''With a bit more practice you will be a pro.'' Bruce complimented.

''Sure.'' Branch replied as they walked to the back and into the house and stopped when they heard laughing and saw Poppy and Brandy talking.

''Well, well looks like the girls are finally talking.'' Bruce answered.

''It was bound to happen.'' Branch smiled as they went to their girls.

Here we go enjoy!
