"La vie est faite de petits bonheurs"

"Did you see his face?" I laughed, almost spilling my vanilla bean frap. [A/N bc white girl] She started laughing at the memory, falling backwards onto the grass.

Daisy and I were sitting in the park under a tree scaring little children when they pass by. Most will run and cry for their mommy or daddy's, but this one child. Whose name was Jimmy, and had that normal 5 year old cloths on. Baggy jeans and a blue shirt on. Did I mention it had a Mickey Mouse face on it? I thought it was pretty cool, but Daisy ruined it.

She told Jimmy, "Oh you like Mickey Mouse? Did you know that Walt Disney was atually a crazy scientist and created a monster that looked like a mouse. He named it Mickey Mouse. Every day, he would let Mickey Mouse out of his cage and he would hide in someone's car driving home with them. So that night, Mickey Mouse would crawl through the house and take the kid away from their parents." By now, Jimmy was on the verge of tears and Daisy was holding onto his tiny hand, continuing the story. "Since you're wearing a Micky Mouse shirt, you've called him to you. So tonight, Mickey Mouse is going to come into your room and take you away forever. You wont ever see your mommy or daddy again. Never."

When she finished, Jimmy started full out crying and screaming. As Daisy and I were laughing at the child, we noticed an old couple staring at us in horror. Their faces were priceless. The old lady looked like she just lost at a Bingo game, and the old man looked like he just witnessed a murder. I guess we murdered this poor kid's childhood. Probably never going to look at a Mickey Mouse toy the same ever again, or go to Disneyland and enjoy it.

"Wait....how...how about when....y-you shoved that.....girl out of the way." Daisy managed between laughs. I groaned and face palmed my forehead. "I did not shove her. I simply pushed her out of my way."

"She was like seven!"

"She looked  twelve!" I countered. Daisy just kept on laughing and I shook my head at her, sipping my drink. I looked at the clock in the center of the park and saw it was a quarter to two thirty. I started standing up and looked down to see Daisy looking at me. I rolled my eyes, "I need to get back to school. Iris must be worried. It is my first day of school."

Daisy stood up and brushed the grass off herself. "Oh ya. We have to do that again."

"What?"

Now it was her time to roll her eyes at me, "Jump off the roof of our tall school. Duh."

"Oh my god." I lent against a tree as I remember what happened.

- Flashback -

 "They call me Daisy." is what I hear her say before she jumps, pulling me with her. 

Oh my god. I'm falling to my death.

"Hold your breath." I hear the girl, Daisy, whisper in my ear. I do as I am told. I don't know why though, I usually don't take orders from people who pulled me off a building. I still suck in a deep breath closing my eyes tight, waiting for death. 

But it never comes.

What I do feel is water. Wait. Water?

Opening my eyes, I see I'm submerged under water. Oh that's why I'm holding my breath. Does Daisy do this regularly? Daisy?!? I look around the clear water but I don't see her. My chest is burning, air. I need air. I swim up to the surface and finally breath. "Issac!" 

"Daisy?" I say treading water. Oh god. I'm tired, the adrenaline leaving my body. I feel arms around my back and let out a small shriek. I hear laughing and quickly turn around to see Daisy. I splash her with water, which was a mistake. She immediately stops laughing and I swear. Her eyes turned red for a second. It was probably the sun or something, I mean eyes don't just change color.
