Heh... I think this will be my last chapter... Nobody's reviewing, anyways... All wells... Maybe next time I won't have a story that's 100 OOC...

Disclaimer: I do not own anything...

Five years had passed. During the years, Vine seemed to be transforming into, well, a REAL prince. A sudden growth spurt, laser eye surgery, shiny hair, a clear face... He was, by now, a popular and well sought after prince.

Plum, too, had gotten prettier. Her 'gay' hair had grown out and left behind a soft, wisteria color, which fell about her shoulders in small curls. Her relationship with Waldo stayed on the friendly side, as Waldo preferred to Plum as a younger sister.

Until this point, though, Vine had refused to go meet Plum. Plum, too, had refused to see Vine after all of the unanswered phone calls.

"Daisy... I don't think there's any other choice. We have to leave them alone and let them be... I don't think they're going to fall in love any time soon." Luigi looked over at his wife. She was having another idea forming and Luigi wasn't so sure if he would like it.

Suddenly, Daisy stood up, knocking over her chair.

"Luigi, that's it!"

"What's it?"

"We have to make it seem as if were going to leave them alone, but in reality, we're going to be pairing them off!"

"How are we going to do that? Besides, didn't we already do something similar to that?"

"But this is different! Hold on, I'm going to call Peach and Mario over and I'll explain everything then..."

A few hours later, Peach and Mario returned to their respectable home.

"I really think Daisy's plan will work this time!" Mario exclaimed to Peach.

"Yeah! Let's just hope that Plum or Vine won't suspect anything..."

"Don't worry! First, though, we have to tell Plum that we're letting her off..."

"So, I'm getting dressed for WHAT?" Plum asked as a maid helped her into a dress.

"You're going to go meet another prince from a different country."

"I thought you said that I could meet whoever I wanted."

"True. But this is one offer that we just couldn't let go of. I heard that this prince is VERY good looking and is VERY popular, but ONLY wants to marry YOU." Peach emphasized, making Plum excited.

In a little while, Plum arrived at the small lake that she was supposed to meet the prince. Seating herself on a large rock, she took out a small mirror and spent her time fixing her hair. Soon, she heard the rustling of bushes and turned around to face whoever was causing the noise.

' My goodness! Who is this? He's so HOT!' Plum thought to herself as she stood up to face the prince.

"Hello, I am Princess Plum," Plum waited for the prince to respond.

Finally, he said, "I can't believe that you don't remember me, Plum..."

"Excuse me?" Plum asked, confused.

"You don't remember me? It's me, Vine," He said as he looked at her with a sort-of sorrow in his eyes.

"Vine? As in Luigi and Daisy's son, Vine?" Plum felt as if she would faint when he nodded his head yes. "You're joking, right? You have to be joking. Where's your hat? If you're really the Vine I know, you'd never go anywhere without your hat."

Vine gave Plum a grin, showing his straight teeth. "Mom forced me to take my hat off. She said no princess will want me as their future husband if they saw me with my hat on."

"Okay, then... Explain how you got so, er, good looking."

"Simple. A lot can happen in five years."

"Do you forgive me for not answering your calls? I'm really sorry about it. I was just-I was just really pissed off at you, but now I'm not." Vine rubbed the back of his head.

"Really?" Plum couldn't believe what she was hearing.

"Really," Vine whispered as he tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear.

"What are they doing?"

"Ssh! They'll hear us."

"But I can't see what they're doing! You're taking up the whole view!"

Luigi and Daisy shoved each other slightly to see past the bushes. Peach and Mario, who squealed with joy, interrupted them.

"Vine just kissed Plum!"

"He did not!"

"He did! Omigosh! She just kissed him back!"

"I want to see! Gasp Run away! They're coming towards our way! Move out!"

"I told you we were being too loud!"

"Mom?" Vine's head popped up above the bush that the four adults were hiding in.

"Why, hello Vine. Wha-what are you doing here?" Luigi stammered as he tried to stand up.

"My exact question to you," Vine replied as he cocked an eyebrow up.

"We were, er, we were looking for leaves!"

"Yeah! We were leaf hunting!"

"And exactly WHY would you want to do something like that?" Plum asked while placing a hand on her hip.

"...No comment..."

"VINE!" Plum's voice was heard throughout the castle. Peach, who was currently having tea with Daisy, looked up at Daisy and cocked an eyebrow up.

"Don't worry. The most that Vine could've done is to dye her hair pink." Daisy said without even looking up from her book. Peach nodded her head in agreement and went back to sipping her tea.

"Vine, you idiot!" Plum screamed as she tried to wash the dye out of her hair.

"Don't worry about the hair dye. It was specially made to be waterproof. It'll go away in about a day or two." Vine laughed as he leaned against the bathroom doorframe.

"A DAY OR TWO! VINE! My HAIR!" Plum wailed as she splashed water towards Vine.

"Hey! Watch it!" Vine yelled out as he dodged back into the bedroom.

"Wah! Why did I ever agree to marry him? Why couldn't I get somebody like Waldo? Lucky girl... At least she got a husband who actually cares about her! She must be like the must luckiest girl to get married to Waldo. Wah!" Plum flopped down onto the ground.

Vine, hearing this from the bedroom, peeked his head into the bathroom to see Plum crying while looking at her reflection in the window. Sighing, Vine shook his head and came up behind Plum.

"Here," Vine said as he gave Plum a large hat. "This should keep your hair hidden until it turns back it's normal color. Honestly, though, I don't think you look so bad with pink hair."

Plum glared at Vine before snatching the hat from him. "Beware, Vine. One day, you're going to wake up and find yourself sewn into the bed."

"Ooh. I'm so scared," Vine laughed as he walked out of the bathroom. "Oh! I almost forgot to tell you this, but you might find it a bit hard to take the hat off."

"What?!" But Vine had already exited the room. Growling, Plum tried to take the hat off, but to no such luck.

"VINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Finally! This story is finished! I was originally planning to make it longer and all that type of stuff, but I didn't think that much people were enjoying it. Also, I just had to finish it so that I could take it off of my mind. So, I finished it off early!
