Poppy’s extraordinary playlist

I try to umm... write shorter chapters to make myself write more often. But I'm not sure if it works at all XD I do my best, I'm just still in kind of intro of the story, I hope I can write faster than I make it up... Tell me if you want the names of the chapters or something.

And I made a Ao3 account! Yay! So the chapter on it is here :D

Enjoy the thing below

Chapter 6

It just happened, ok? It just happened! Poppy had no idea how to control her hearing-others’-thoughts-as-a-song power worked. Sometimes she just got home her sleeping bestie and walking bach to the park it just started. Out of nowhere. Just like that:

It's like, she doesn't hear a word I say Her mind is somewhere far away And I don't know how to get there

Chenille sang. Poppy sighed. She already knew the problem, hearing it once again wouldn’t be very helpful. It only made her sick. How was it even possible that two trolls could be that different? Especially them! Satin and Chenille were inseparable twins! She couldn’t help but thought about Branch. How different was he actually...

It was a really brief thought which was interrupted by unexpected duo:

It's like all she wants is to chill out

Chenille continued while Satin joined in, singing:

She’s so serious!

She makes me wanna pull all my hair out (She's always in a rush and interrupted)

Like she doesn't even care! (Like she doesn't even care)

The last line they sang together. It was quite impressing how perfectly their voices harmonized even if th sang completely different words. Poppy didn’t know in which direction she should’v looked, when they both clearly spoke to her. Twins gestured with passion during their song:

Like fire and rain (Like fire and rain) You can drive me insane (You can drive me insane) But I can't stay mad at you for anything We're Venus and Mars (Venus and Mars) We're like different stars (like different stars) You're the harmony to every song I sing And I wouldn't change a thing

- Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait... - Poppy interrupted them, forcing to stop walking. Twins stood sharply. They looked really confused.

- Wait for what? - Satin asked.

- Just... Just stop for a second and let me think

- Stop what? - Chenille spoke with her hand with irritation. - We were just walking in totally silence!

- Totally - Satin agreed.

But Poppy just stood so still, tapping her lips by her fist and holding an elbow with other hand.

- What is happening? - Chenille asked her sister, but she just shrugged her shoulders.

- You are different - Queen started thinking out loud. - And we thought it was a problem, but it’s not. It’s good that you’re different. There’s a key! You’re the harmony, cause you’re different! Cause harmony is different voices! The world would be boring if we’re all the same! We need fire AND rain. Venus needs Mars and Mars needs Venus. We actually need differences! - Poppy laughed with joy. She turned to the sisters - It’s that so beautiful?

But they looked at her even more confused than before.

- What are you talking about? - Satin asked.

Poppy took a deep breath. She had to make them understand, not just hear it. Understand. But how? She thought about her dad. Only two weeks ago she could just walk into his pod and ask him for everything. King Peppy expired so many hard life’s moments and he had always found the solution to any problem. But then, he’s in the hospital. She couldn’t bother him with everything she couldn’t solve on her own. And beside that, she was the queen. It was her job. It made her feel alone and a bit helpless. She never could describe what it’s in her mind. No one jut got her and in the way she thought.

It reminded her one of her sweet moment with her dad. She had been really little back then and she had tried to describe something she had seen through the window. She still remember his amused face, when he had seen her effort. He had said then “Sweetie, if you can find words, you can always show the thing”. “But how?” The little pink girl asked curiously. Dad had gave her pieces of colorful felt and scissors. And he had taught her how to scrapbooking.

Poppy smiled at this memory.

- Lemme show you something - The pink trolls said and waved encouragingly. She turned around and walked toward her pod.

When she opened red door, the smell of the flowers hit her nose. Poppy hadn’t been there for a week, for such a long week! She really missed this place, smelling like her favorite perfumes and looking so hosty and soft. She always felt there safe and comfy, she wouldn’t live anywhere else.

Queen ran through the living room to the big violet wardrobe and opened widely both of its door. There were many of colorful outfit inside, but most of them were blue. There was no word to describe how much Poppy loved this color. It made her a bit sad everytime when she woke up and saw the sky wasn’t blue. But most of the year it was, it greeted her every day with this pease and bright lazure, and she couldn’t help but stared a few minutes before she jumped of her bed and ran to the violet wardrobe to choose the casual dress (the blue one of course). Those things flew through her mind when she was staring at her lovely cloths.

- Look at this - Poppy beamed to twins. They glanced at outfits emotionlessly.

- Wardrobe - Chenille said.

- Cloths - Satin frowned. - Is there anything you see that we can’t...

- Yes! Look at them and take a guess which one is my favourite!

This time twins were staring at opened wardrobe a bit longer. Chenille even made this funny gesture she made every time she was thinking deeply about the cloths: she touched her chin with thumb and her nose with forefinger.

- The blue one? - Satin asked shyly.

- Half of them are blue! - Chenille spat.

- I mean, this blue one with white edge - Violet trolls pointed at Poppy. - The one you have at.

- She asked about wardrobe, genius

- I thought it would be a tricky question

- It was - Poppy grinned. - I love all of my cloths the same. Every single one is special. And you know, why?

- Because you really like cloths? - Satin asked.

- No - Pink troll couldn,t smile any wider. - Because every single one is made by my very best friends. They worked so hard to made them for me and, the most important, they made them together! Teamworking!

- Okay, I see where you’re going - Chenille rolled her eyes.

- But let me say it! Look, this one for example - Poppy took off really nice lilac dress with cold arm and white leather band. - This one is beatifull. Remember how you sewed it? I just said that i like this fabric and wanted to have a simple dress with it. And Chenille made it for me. But then Satin said..,

- That it wasn’t good enough! - Chenille huffed. Satin crossed her arms, but didn’t say anything.

- Yes! - Poppy skinned her head slowly. - And then?

Blue troll sighed heavily.

- And she cut the arms and added white belt... - She didn’t look at sister, speaking quieter and quieter, - And it made the dress beautiful...

- And this one! - Poppy shew them blue dress with rainbow skirt and tulle sleeves.

- Gosh, I was sewing it whole the night - Satin beamed. - I was so proud of the design and I was so desperated to give you this one the very next day - Violet troll giggled. - It was ridicoulous! But I was so desperated. I remember waking up in the morning and discovering so many little mistakes! I felt like failure!

- But when you gave me it, the dress was perfect! - Poppy tilted her head on a side. - And also I don’t remember seeing you being exhausted or something.

-....Yeah, cause... Chenille told me to take a nap... - Satin held her elbow shyly. - And she fixed the dress when I was sleeping...

Queen put her hand on her hip and lifted her eyebrow suggestively. The twins looked pretty ashamed right then: Chenille stared at the ceiling with her arms crossed tightly on her chest and Satin rubbed her elbow glanced at the floor.

- Hey, look girls - Poppy smiled at something she took from the wardrobe. - Remember this one?

She showed them the dress and the sisters collapsed with a giggle.

- Of course! - Satin beamed. - I never forget your dress!

- It was so ridiculous - Chenille chuckled. - I didn't even know that you are so bad at sewing, Poppy!

- Thanks - Poppy showed her tooth awkwardly.

- And you were as stubborn as always! - Chenille started to pretend Poppy's voice. - 'I want to sew it on my own! Just let me do it!'

- But Poppy! - Satin joined to play, pretending Chenille's voice. - You can't start from that side!

- 'I will do what I want!' - Chenille screamed and stamped her foot. And then both just exploded with a loud laugh.

- I didn't say that - Poppy pursed her lips.

- Maybe not, but look at this dress - Violet girl pointed at the cloth in her pink hands and started laughing again.

- Yes, that's the thing we both always agree with - Chenille crossed her arms with a big grin on her face. - That dress isn't... Nice for eyes.

- Yeah, totally agree - Satin chuckled, stepping a bit closer to her sister. - Are we back?

- We're back - Twin answered with a hug and deep sign of relief. - I missed you, sis.

- I missed you too, Chell. - Satin said, embracing her tightly.

Poppy smiled at them. She really didn't know how she made them come to term, but she was happy that they finally did it. She took a look at the dress she was still holding. Well, the twins were right. That thing was a complete disaster.

- Now I see we haven't pawed through your wardrobe for such a long time - Poppy barely even noticed, when girls came to her so close.

- We have to make you something new - Chenille said, touching one of the suits inside. - Can we, well as Satin said, "paw through your wardrobe" a bit?

- Of course! If that gives you an inspiration...

Twins giggled at her, but Poppy didn't find anything funny in what she just said. She didn't even start wondering what was the thing that made her friends laugh when she heard a knocking at her door.

- Well, I guess I leave you to it - Queen threw going to the front door. But the twins were too busy talking about her outfits. Which made her smile when she was opening the door. She almost jumped when she saw who stood there.

- So here you are! - Creek beamed at her. - I was looking for your the whole week, Poppy! - He stepped in without an invitation. - Where had you been?

- I... - She tried to clear her thoughts. She wasn't just ready to see him so suddenly. - Well, it's a long story and I haven't made a scrapbook about it yet...

- Maybe we'll sit? - Creek suggested and pointed at chairs in the living room. He was her boyfriend, but for some reason, she really didn't like it when he treated her pod like his own. She loved hosting and he just took it away from her in her house. She breathed deeply.

- Yea, sure - She threw and when they already sat on the chairs, she continued. - I have many things to tell you.

- I'm all ears - Creek stared at her intensively. It made her nervous, especially because she hated telling stories without a scrapbook. She just wasn't good at keeping eye contact if she had nothing in her hands. So she looked down, trying to find good words. Then she felt his warm hand grabbing her and squeezed a bit. Like he knew that she needed it. She looked at him and smiled a bit.

- Ok, so... I was in the hospital. The whole week. The MRI showed up that I had brain cancer, just like my dad, but much smaller. So... I had an operation where they cut it off my brain. And then I had to lie in this hospital the whole week, even if I felt okay. - She stopped for a second, cause she found the way Creek was listening to her too calm. - Sorry for not telling you about this...

- It's okay - He smiled comfortingly.

- And sorry for my friends, they also don't tell you anything cause... they... seem to not like you... because when we started going out I stopped going on our meetings... - She breathed heavily. - It's all my fault. I destroyed our Snack Pack and now they hate you and...

- No, stop it! - Creek said. - Nothing's your fault! They just don't know me. Maybe If I go to this meeting with you, they'll know me and maybe even like me. What do you think?

Poppy stared at him unsurely.

- Well, I guess we can try...

- See? And everything's good! - Creek smiled again, but Poppy just couldn't feel it. - I told you, you think too much about your problems sometimes.

- Maybe...

- Is there anything else you wanted to tell me?

She hesitated for a while.

- Have you ever heard about this guy from the forest named Branch?

- You mean this gray ghost? He's real? I didn't even know he has a name actually...

- Well, yes, he's real, and I talked with him. I want to befriend him and I'm just wondering if you don't mind...

- No, it's really nice of you that you want to help him. Maybe one day I'll talk with him too

- Maybe...

- Well, I'm glad to see you're ok - Creek said, standing up. - I see you are still really tired after being in the hospital. Don't stress yourself, just please, rest a bit, ok? And we can see each other tomorrow, right?

- Right - Poppy nodded, smiling, or maybe just trying to smile. She gave him a peck kiss at goodbye and waved him when he went out. The doors shut loudly and Queen was sitting very still on her chair.

She felt wrong. This whole talk was as normal as usual, but she had been feeling really bad during it, and then, when Creek left, it still felt bad...

But maybe he was right and she thought too much? Maybe she really needed a rest?

- Poppy? Poppy! What are you doing there so long? Come here! We need to talk about your brand new style!

Poppy giggled. She really missed the twins making a mess in her wardrobe. Hearing their voices in her pod was all she needed right then. She needed to spend some time with her old friends.

- Don't worry, I'm coming!
