Goose is an inch taller than Slider, but Slider is bigger—shoulders, muscles, and all of that—and Goose knows it too well. It starts in Annapolis, but even when they're at Top Gun, he uses it to his advantage. Every time he does something he wasn't supposed to, one of his shenanigans, he knows the way to not being caught is to hide and duck a little behind Slider. Ice has some of his fondest memories of them: watching Goose run for his life, laughing and sometimes crying, putting Slider where he needed to be, and ducking a little while trying to be as quiet as possible. Most of the confrontation ended with people stopping in front of Slider and him asking, "What's the problem, folks?" just to watch them change directions because they knew better than to mess with him.

Telling Stories: she wore daisies
By Crystal Charlotte Lynch
I want to tell you something.
The story of a girl with daisies in her hair.
She was funny and brilliant.
Bright full of love and light.
She was light in life.
Giving her all to everyone.
She rarely got mad or even sad.
You didn’t know what she held up inside.
She always sported a smile and spoke with her heart.
There was grace in her presence and she held wisdom in her soul.
Her eyes full of wonder and mysteries.
You wouldn’t know it looking at her but her heart carried sorrow and misery.
On the inside she was wilting and withering away.
You wouldn’t believe that her lovely smile was just an empty mask.
This was the story of a young girl.
She wore daisies in her hair.
