Marriage and Murder (MMU Fanfiction)

Daisy's secret Plan

Hazel's POV:

I will run away, I thought. Or, I'll do plan three, and threaten to kill myself.

I was sitting on the bed of Pik An's bedroom. It was very small, with only one small cupboard and an old sink to wash her face. The bed creaked so much that I would hardly fall asleep.

I hear footsteps outside. I am not surprised at all to hear the sound of Daisy unlocking the door with a hairpin, "Watson," she whispered,"

"Daisy,"

"Phew. You're there. Now, I want you to listen very carefully. I don't have much time. I, as usual, have come up with a brilliant plan. Your father will only accept you and Alexander being together if Alexander does something really heart—felt for you—"

"Daisy,"

"— I'm not finished Watson. I propose that you pretend to do something really stupid while your father is watching you. When you are about to die, Alexander saves you—"

"Daisy,"

"What," she makes an annoyed face.

"Daisy. Please stop,"

"Stop doing what?"

"Stop putting yourself in harms way. Father already pdoesn't like you. Imagine what he'd do if he found out you were here,"

"But he won't,"

"Besides, I already have a plan,"

"Ooh! Tell me it!"

I walked towards her, a sad expression on my face.

"That you enjoy your holiday, without me, I go back to Hong Kong, and Alexander finds some other lucky western girl, who will hopefully be the one, because obviously I'm not,"

"Don't be ridiculous, Watson! Wait—why are you walking towards me like that—" But it was too late. I was already closing the door, tears streaming down my cheeks.

"Goodbye, Daisy,"

"Watson! You open this door right now! Oh bother! Pik An's coming!"

I hear Daisy rush away. Pik An come's in, with a tray of food. I stay still, emotionless. She looks at me sympathetically.

"Don't worry, miss Hazel. You'll get over it sooner or later," She gave me a nod, and then closed the door.

As I heard her walk away, I said to myself, "Yes, yes I would,"

Daisy's POV:

As I walked up the stairs, I said to myself, "Oh well, looks like I'd better go onto plan two," I turn to the boat's telephone, "Lavinia, Kitty, and Beanie,"
