Peach X Daisy Novels & Stories

They seemed to have been drawn to Harrison and Daisy's interaction, huddled together in small clusters, wearing expressions of unmasked surprise, whispering to each other in hushed tones. When my gaze turned towards them, they quickly dispersed. "Thank you!" Daisy, now in possession of the red velvet cake, tilted her head back and thanked Harrison with a sweet voice. Harrison nodded somewhat awkwardly. He was about to leave when Daisy once again tugged at his clothing. "Wait a moment, Harrison. I have something to give you," Daisy said. Holding the little cake, Daisy hurried over to me and extended her small hand. "Flowers, Mom! I want flowers!"

Daisy shook her head. “Didn’t he leave any clues behind?” Xyla was a little disappointed. Daisy thought hard for a few seconds. “After thinking carefully, I think he didn’t leave any clues behind…” After saying that, Daisy’s eyes lit up suddenly. “I remember now… I think he told me that he stays on an island. During late summer and early autumn, manzanita plants would be in full bloom all over the island,” she said.

But if it were to break down somewhere, I would be in so much trouble. Rather than stay outside and watch the guys look over our new ride, I head into the kitchen. There is an open can of peaches left over from the lunch the others had about an hour ago, and I dig in with a plastic fork. Daisy sits at the kitchen table, sipping at a bottle of water. She has this look in her eyes that I've noticed every once in a while. It's a look that says "I've lost someone important to me; someone that I'll never get back". Madison told me that Daisy lost her twin sister Rose when their school safe haven got overrun and burned to the ground, so I assume it's about her.

"Fine, fine. I'll go with you... I'll tell Yosef to make time. Is that okay?" "Mwah!" Daisy kissed Sean on the cheek. "Sean, you're so good! I love you so much! I'm waiting for you!" Sean blushed. Daisy was so young that she didn't watch her tongue and said "I love you" casually. But Sean thought she was sweet. "Ahem, I've already agreed. Why don't you get down?" "No." Daisy lay on his back and refused to get down. "You're going to get off work soon anyway. Take me out to eat something delicious tonight, and buy me the latest mobile phone, and... I've used up my perfume!"

CHAPTER THIRTEEN TAYLOR’S POV SOME HOURS LATER The Lamborghini truck wheeled into the pack bridal store. Quite like all small packs, everyone got their things in one place and from one kindred. Daisy’s family, the Fangs, owned this store. So she was already outside waiting for us. She chose peach with silver sequins and flappers on her feet. Yeah, it wasn't the best match but she did that whenever she wanted to tell someone they weren't welcomed. Zephyr felt the full weight of it, especially with her creepy bright smile.

The white petals were perfect and unblemished, the kind of flowers that cost too much money and died too quickly. Behind me I heard movement and turned to see Harrison standing up from the couch, straightening his jacket awkwardly. He cleared his throat twice before speaking. “Daisy,” he said politely, nodding at her. “It’s good to see you again.” Daisy looked at him and her whole face changed, all the warmth draining out of it in an instant. She nodded back stiffly but didn’t smile, didn’t return the greeting, just stood there staring at him with her arms crossed tightly over her chest.

He got up to welcome Cassienne, but Daisy bit him to it as she ran to her, wrapping her hands all over Cassienne. Cassienne froze. She doesn't need anyone to tell her that Daisy has had a lot of drinks. “Finally, Cassienne, you came.” She purred like a child. Cassienne forced out a smile and hugged Daisy back. Then she whispered to her ear. Do you plan on holding me this long, Daisy?” Daisy beamed. Then she let go. But as Daisy returned to her seat. Cassienne smiled at everyone. Hi guys, I am sorry i—”

Lucas stared at the screen. “Find him.” “We're already trying.” Lucas looked at the company name again. “Someone isn't trying to build a brand.” Xavier nodded. “They're looking for something.” “Or someone.” Lucas's voice became colder. “Daisy.” --- The following afternoon, Daisy prepared for her livestream. She placed her camera on the desk, adjusted the lighting and checked her microphone. Everything looked normal. Her viewers were already waiting. DAISY IS LIVE TONIGHT!

“Pretend I am not even here.” Daisy turned bright red and ducked her head, hiding her face in Jaxon’s jacket. Jaxon let his head drop back with a groan. His best friend was the worst. Jaxon glared at Harry, promising retribution in silence. Harry pressed his lips together, trying, and failing, to hold back the grin tugging at the corners of his mouth. "Do you want to eat my fist for dessert, Harry?" Jaxon growled. Daisy’s head snapped up fast. Her eyes were wide. “I brought cheesecake for dessert, Jaxon. Do you want cheesecake?”

He took care of everything along the way, from securing an appointment to making payment. She didn’t expect that he would ask for an appointment with Zeta, and awkwardness overwhelmed her. “I’m sorry, I didn’t know…” Daisy and Zeta hardly knew each other. Although Zeta was Xavier’s ex-fiancée, Daisy had never met her in the flesh before except for that time at the year-old celebration when she saw her from afar. Daisy hardly even considered themselves rivals in love, but she couldn’t shake off the awkwardness that surged through her.
