"So Mario's brother, Luigi was the one who helped you find the castle?" Peach asked Daisy. They were both getting ready in Peach's room while Peach sat in front of the mirror brushing her long wavy golden locks.
"Heehee yup, and before that he ran right into the bus stop sign! At first I was just like 'uh…' but then I got down next to him and was all like 'oh god you ok!' It really was an interesting first meeting haha," Daisy replied sitting on Peach's bed.
"Is it just me…or did it seem like he was eyeing you earlier?" Peach said slowing down her brush strokes as she began to unleash a sly smile. Daisy simply blushed and looked away.
"Maybe…a little…oh but I'm sure it was nothing," Daisy said quickly gesturing off the thought of such an idea.
"Oh COME ON Daisy! He had his eyes GLUED to you! And the way he was acting all shy towards you and everything…that's definitely NOT the Luigi I know. I bet the reason why he ran into the stop sign earlier was because he couldn't take his eyes off of you," Peach said giggling at the thought.
Daisy giggled too…but it was a nervous laugh, considering how from the looks of it that really seemed to be what had happened earlier.
"Oh goodness it's already 7:30! Where on Earth ARE those boys!" Peach yelped.
Back at the Mario and Luigi's house (now just Luigi's house) Mario was standing by the front door groaning, "Oh come on Luigi! We're already a half hour late!"
Luigi was running around frantically adjusting himself in every manner whatsoever. Mario had finally convinced him to try and pursue this new Daisy girl a little further, but if he had known it would take him this long to get ready, he would've waited a little longer.
"I'm sorry hold on just one more second!" Luigi said combing his hair for the 30 billionth time. He then sprayed a few spritz of cologne around him and combed out his mustache. Rushing out the door she shouted to Mario,
"Alright, let's a'go!" As Luigi walked out of the doorway Mario slapped him on the back of the head.
"That's my line twinkletoes…"
"Who you calling twinkletoes shorty?"
The whole gang had finally left the castle and started walking about in the city located right next to the Kingdom. It really was a beautiful sight to behold at night especially with the neon lights illuminating anything and everything. Peach and Mario were walking close together of course hand in hand, while Luigi and Daisy kind of meandered behind. Daisy wasn't usually a shy person, but there was something about this man Luigi that made her speechless. Luigi of course on the other hand was absolutely terrified.
The awkward silence has lasted long enough Luigi…say something to her! But what….what do I say…? Ugh I'm such a loser…I can't even make simple small talk…
Luigi then took a large gulp, wiped some of the sweat off of his brow and finally blurted out in an extremely high pitched voice,
"Er, Daisy….I um…your dress sure looks night at nice! I mean, nice at night! Or, nice in moonlight! Or uh…it….it looks nice!" squeaked Luigi blushing madly. Daisy turned to look at Luigi abruptly, a bit lost by his words. Peach and Mario had turned around to look at him as well. Daisy then burst out laughing while Peach and Mario turned their backs behind them once more trying so hard to contain their laughter.
Wow Luigi….real smooth….now she's laughing at you and thinks you're a total idiot with a speech impediment!
"Heh…thanks Luigi. You look very nice tonight as well," she said smiling up at him.
"Thanks hehe….," Luigi said still blushing and rubbing the back of his neck.
Daisy looked away trying to hide her giggling.
Peach really was right. He definitely seems like he's eyeing me…his shyness is simple hilarious and adorable as well.
During their walk through the city, the four of them stopped by a fancy restaurant to finish off the night. Peach, Mario and Daisy were laughing in their heated conversation while Luigi was still quiet as he was sitting right next to Daisy in the booth.
For crying out loud get it together Luigi! You're acting like a little kid, man up and just talk to her.
But as soon as he opened his mouth to say something a Toad waiter came by to take their orders.
"Can I get you all some drinks?"
"Some red wine and a glass of water for the both of us please," Mario said ordering for Peach as well.
"I'll have this 'Sex on the Beach' cocktail," said Daisy.
Luigi's brain started spinning two and fro with sudden thoughts pounding in his head.
"And for you sir?"
"Sex…."
"Um, excuse me sir?"
"Sex…I mean uh, yes Sex, Sex on the Beach. One for me two please hehe, yeah." Luigi said his laugh both ridiculous and fake. All he wanted to do was to just kick himself right now. Peach and Mario continued to giggle at Luigi's little mishaps.
"Luigi, you've barely said a thing all night! You alright?" Peach asked hiding her grin.
"What? Oh yeah of course yeah sure…"
"So how exactly did you end up bringing Daisy to the castle again?"
"Well I was jogging and um….ran…into a….stop sign," muttered Luigi. Mario stifled his laughter in his napkin trying to pass it off as him just blowing his nose. Daisy merely smiled and piped up,
"Yeah but after he came out of that sudden shock he was nice enough to bring me back to find you Peach. Isn't that right Luigi?" Luigi nodded his head vigorously smiling in a cheesy fashion.
"So how old are you Luigi?," Daisy asked him, her chin resting on her hands as she looked over at him.
"22…"
"Oh wow, me too! Haha. When's your birthday?"
"November 16th…"
"No foolin! Me too!" Daisy exclaimed genuinely impressed this time. Luigi's eyes widened a bit at this interesting coincidence.
"Oh wow, hehe…look at that."
Throughout the rest of their time at the restaurant Daisy continued to chat with Luigi, and he began to grow more and more comfortable with her. Mostly silent, Peach and Mario watched their entertainment as they ate.
At the end of the night they all had returned to Peach's castle. Mario walked in with Peach of course, but Luigi had to say buy to all three of them. It was then that Peach and Mario rushed inside the house closing the door behind them to leave the two of them alone. They ran up to Peach's balcony to look below at them and listened.
"It was awesome getting to know you Luigi. I had no idea we had so much in common."
"Neither did I…hey um…Daisy…?"
"Yeah? What's up?"
"Would you…maybe….happen to be free tomorrow? I mean if you're busy that's totally fine I was just wondering and all becau-"
"I'm totally free tomorrow heehee" Daisy interrupted Luigi smiling.
"Oh! Well uh great hah! I guess I'll come by around…."
"2 o clock?"
"Ye…yeah! 2 o' clock. We can go uh…."
"To the park?"
"Yeah and then we'll…."
"Have a picnic by the lake?"
"Oh yeah, definitely! Well, then I better be off….I'll see you tomorrow at 2 then."
"Alright then. Good night Luigi…" Daisy said almost sensuously.
"Night…" Luigi said barely above a whisper. As soon as Daisy had closed the door Luigi waited a few moments and screamed with joy.
"YEESSSSS! YES YES YES! I'VE GOT A DATE TOMORROW! Oh wow!" Luigi then continued to talk to himself for the rest of the night in pure excitement. As Daisy walked inside the castle she too couldn't contain herself.
Oh wow…I actually have a date. I barely know him and already we have a date. Well he is charming that's for sure this should be fun heehee!
Peach and Mario continued to watch from the balcony grinning at each other.
