La la la la...
"Peach is so...happy! Why would I go out with her? She just scares me." Ike had been meeting regularly with Nana and Daisy. They insisted that Peach and Ike were meant to be, and they would give him the info of everything that happened during their conversations.
Ike was supposed to prove that he didn't like her back, but he came anyway and blushed whenever the girls dished on Peach.
Nana leaned back in her bench out on the terrace. "Today, I heard her say that she would definitely leave Mario for you. She was talking..to Samus..about..." Nana's gossip went in one ear and out the other when Peach entered the other side of the terrace. Ike stared at her, watching her sing and twirl her parasol hypnotically. She looked over at Ike and winked.
As if in a trance, Ike got up and walked to her. She giggled and cheerfully said, "Hey, nice brawl today! I'm not able to defeat Bowser, and...well, someone had to break his winning streak!" Ike nodded modestly, not saying anything because all possible replies would sound like bragging. She kissed him on the cheek. "Um, do you think we—I mean, only if you want to—could we...get some lunch or something?"
Ike, obviously dazed, just barely managed to get out a "yes." As Peach skipped away happily, Ike walked back to his post with Daisy and Nana, both of whom were smirking.
