"So, Poppy?" Branch asked, making her look over to him from her spot on the ground.

"Yes?" she asked, and put on a smile that Branch loved.

"I, um....."

Nobody said anything for a moment. Finally, Poppy spoke up.

"You what?" she asked.

"Poppy, do you love me or Creek? If you had to pick one," Branch asked, and forced a smile.

Poppy got up and grabbed his hands.

"I think you already know the answer."

Branch dropped her hands and sighed, upset.

"I knew it."

Poppy walked back over to him and grabbed his hands again.

"You," she said.

Branch smiled. "You know what?"

"What?"

"Nothing I can see but you when you're dancin'," he said, and laughed.

"Now you're just repeating Can't Stop The Feeling lines." Poppy laughed.

"Ain't nobody leaving soon so keep dancing."

Poppy rolled her eyes and smiled. "Fine. I will."

She turned on Can't Stop The Feeling and started dancing.

"I've tried playing it cool
But when I'm looking at you
I can’t ever be brave
'Cause you make my heart race

Shot me out of the sky
You're my kryptonite
You keep making me weak
Yeah, frozen and can't breathe

Something’s gotta give now
'Cause I’m dying just to make you see
That I need you here with me now
'Cause you've got that one thing."

"Now you're repeating One Direction!" Poppy yelled, and giggled.

"But I mean it," Branch said, ams leaned in.

His heart stopped when he felt their lips together.
