Love, Me

Losing It

Daisy crawled out of the sleek minivan which was parked next to a starbucks.

"Luna, do you want me to save us a spot while you change?" Daisy offered.

"Yeah, thanks." Luna said, pulling out her bathing suit. She walked into the starbucks and opened the door to the bathroom. She quickly changed into her baby blue bathing suit. She threw over a floral dress and slipped into her sandals. She then scurried out of the crowded, loud, popular coffee shop. Outside, Molly waited in her car, playing The Spice Girls very loudly.

"Molly!" Luna yelled from the corner store. Head still bobbing, Molly pushed open the maroon door, climbing out.

"C'mon, kiddo, let's go." Molly said, in her own mini dance which involved singing off-key, jumping on one foot, whipping her short, red hair to the left then to the right, making the motion with her pale hands that you would use to turn a jump rope, all at top speed.

Two minutes later, Luna found Daisy on a lavender tarp, stretched out toward the sun.

"DAISY!" the woman next to her called out, waving her hands up high and yelling Daisy's name. Daisy turned around facing the hiding Luna and the jumping Molly. Daisy stormed over, and took off her sunglasses, crossing her arms.

"Mom! What are you doing?" Daisy hissed through gritted teeth. Luna silently scooted away from the mother-daughter argument that almost everyone experienced.

Then, about.. four minutes later, Daisy stormed back, and Molly spread across her own picnic blanket. Luna just smiled awkwardly and shrugged. Daisy sighed, smiled, and uncrossed her arms, letting her arms fall to her side.

"Uhh....." Luna paused. "Wanna go swimming?" Luna suggested. Daisy jumped and squealed for a millisecond. Luna gave her a what-the-heck-was-that-and-what-was-it-for look.

"I thought you'd never ask!" Daisy yelped. The two raced, the hot sand squirming between their toes. Daisy pushed Luna out of the way.

"Hey! Daisy!" Luna yelled, and pushed her back. The two girls tied, reaching the water at the same time.

"I won!" The screamed in unison. "Jinx!" Luna screamed. Daisy sighed, but she nodded. Luna, five seconds, grew tired of the quiet between the two.

"Daisy." Luna shrugged. Daisy pumped a hand in the air.

"Oh, Luna, you may want to take off your necklace." Daisy said before diving into the water.

"Wait. Where is my necklace?!?!" Luna screamed. She got a text from her mom.

@QueenofQuanity: Hey, I forgot to mention that the necklace actually has a bit of a backstory. Grandpa gave it to her has a wedding present. It has a name: Josephine's stolen heart. If you look closely you can see a little sapphire heart. It was custom made, irreplaceable! Worth millions, but Nana didn't care. Just has long as she had Gramps. The gold chain has all the dates of important moments engraved in them. Wedding day, day I was born, first date, etc. Bye! Just wanted to let you know

"AUGH!" Luna screamed. A life guard slid down from her post and walked to Luna.

"Everything alright, dear?" The ginger lifeguard said in an Australian accent.

"Yeah, yeah." Luna said, waving her of. The lifeguard muttered an "ok" and climbed back upon her post, the sun blocked by the huge umbrella that sat next to the lifeguard. On the side of the post had a engraving of "Ava 4life.". A lifeguard passing sneered and said, "She did that herself." Luna shook her head and continued her search for her necklace. Suddenly, her phone got two dings. She opened the text from Molly.

@Waitisthisvoicetype: u forgot ur neck-thing-pendant in the car.

@LattesLlamasandLikes: Thank you SO much!

She then answered the text message from... Daisy?

@DIYDays: Where are you?!?

@LattesLlamasandLikes: I'm near the lifeguard why?

@DIYDays: I'm coming. Something's up.

"Daisy? What's up?" Luna asked, concerned. Molly as well ran over.

"Here's your necklace. I'm going to go swimming." Molly yelled, passing her the once-again-hers, necklace. Luna put it on.

"Well- I saw Juli and Winnie over there, I think they're going to do something... something BIG." Daisy said, she turned to Luna. "Let's go." Luna nodded. Molly was already out of the water complaining that it was too cold.

"Mom, can we go?" Daisy asked.

"Molly, can we go?" Luna begged.

"Girls, can we go?" Molly asked in unison with the three. They laughed, except for Daisy and packed up their stuff. Slowly, they climbed in the car.

"Oh, Daisy, Luna, I forgot to mention that you have to stay at Luna's house, we are painting your room and the living room, so there is no safe haven. That's okay, right Luna?" Molly acknowledged.

"Yeah." Luna nodded with approval. Daisy kissed her mom goodbye as Luna crawled out and opened the door. Luna rang the doorbell as the car drove off. Luna's mom answered.

"Hey, Daisy, Luna." Luna's mom gave Luna a kiss on the head.

"Hey, Charlotte." Daisy said waving. The two sat on the plump couches as Charlotte took her place on the armchair. The t.v was blaring a fantasy movie.

"I thought you were watching Modern family.." Luna cocked her head to the side.

"Well, I like it there. I wish I could be there." The doorbell rang, but no one was there. All three transported into, a new land, a new.... Fairy Tale.
