"Hahahaha! I'm gonna beat you again this time, Luigi!"
"You'll have to catch me first!"
Frappe Snowland was a racing track, but it was the perfect place to go sledding during the off-season. Daisy sighed happily as the wind whipped through her hair.
"You know I will!" she called, steering her sled around a rounded corner, faster and faster until she was right beside him. "See? Gotcha again!"
"Hey, no fair! My hat was slipping down over my eyes!" Luigi groaned, somehow managing to adjust his hat with one hand and narrowly avoid a snowman with the other. "Besides, you should be tired after all this racing, and-" She was already out of his line of sight. "Hey!"
He managed to catch up to her again, just as she was making a sharp turn around a tree...unfortunately, as he attempted to to the same his sled skidded and before he knew it, the two of them crashed into each other and then into a snowbank.
"Oh no!" Daisy cried. "Luigi, are you all right?"
He pulled himself upright, shaking the snow from his hat.
"I think so. Sorry about that," he laughed. "What about you?"
"Oh, I've taken worse spills than this during races!" she giggled. "Come on, let's get back on track, I was about to beat you again!"
"Daisy..." His hair was mussed, his scarf had fallen off and he was still shaking snow out of his hat. "Can we just call this one a tie? Please?"
She normally would have protested and cajoled him until he gave in, but the truth was falling in a snowbank did take a lot out of a girl and they had been at this since early morning.
"Sure," she said, "just this once."
He leaned against her, and she captured his cold, chapped lips in a warming kiss.
