"Luigi, I swear to God, if you comb your mustache one more time I'm going to have to shove it up your plumber's crack…" Mario groaned waiting once more for Luigi to get ready.

"Ok calm down jeez. I'm sorry some people in the world like to try and look DECENT when going out on a date," Luigi retorted.

"Hey don't you start with me now…," Mario said pulling the comb out of Luigi's hand and pointing it at him.

"HEY! I wasn't done yet!"

"Oh YES you are!" Mario said throwing the comb off to who knows where. He put his hands on Luigi's shoulders to try and calm him down.

"Seriously Luigi, CALM DOWN. The more jittery and crazy you act the more likely something wrong is going to happen…by the way…don't you think a button down shirt and tie is a bit um…formal for a simple little picnic in the park?"

"Of course not!" Luigi shouted pushing Mario off of his shoulders. But after hearing that second opinion he started questioning himself.

"Oh…I don't know! I don't know what to do at all! I don't want to blow this with her…I'm just….UGH!" Luigi threw his arms up in the air and tore off his tie and shirt. Mario sighed grabbing Luigi's old overalls and long sleeved green shirt.

"Here just throw these on and get a move on will ya? I'm telling you you're over thinking this too much. Just do the cliché' thing….be yourself and be calm. Alright?"

"Yeah yeah…."

"Oh! I almost forgot something," Mario said as he pulled out a square plastic wrapped up package putting it in Luigi's pocket. Inspecting it more closely Luigi threw it in Mario's face.

"Are you crazy! It's just the first date!" Luigi scowled.

"Hey you never know! Better safe than sorry!"

It definitely was a merry bright and sunny day for a picnic at the Mushroom Kingdom Park. Birds were chirping their sweet songs and Daisy and Luigi laughed happily under a beautiful cherry blossom tree.

"Wow Luigi…I never knew your cooking was so amazing" Daisy said staring up dreamily into Luigi's eyes.

"Well….with Mario usually gone at times I end up doing a lot of housework. It's nothing special though really…"

"Oh don't be so modest it's amazing! I thought we would just be having something simple like sandwiches, but the ravioli was amazing!" They both laughed once more looking out into the lake.

"Thanks for inviting me here…" Daisy whispered as she scooched over closer to Luigi.

"My pleasure…" Luigi smiled his hand instinctively resting upon hers.

And that's how it began. With their first date being a success, Luigi started visiting Daisy almost every day nonstop for the next few weeks. After their dates Mario and Peach laughed as they ended up gossiping to each other from the stories they heard from Luigi and Daisy about their amazingly romantic dates.

After about three weeks, it was almost midnight and Luigi was escorting Daisy through the park, where they had their first date, under the stars.

"How long do you plan to stay here?" Luigi asked Daisy, not wanting her to return home any time soon of course.

"Well I told Father that I would like to stay a little longer considering how I um…have just been having so much fun reconnecting with Peach," Daisy sputtered. She couldn't exactly just blurt out to everyone back at home that it was because she found someone who she might possibly hook up with. Luigi nodded as a response, trying to dismiss all thoughts of Daisy leaving anytime soon.

"Here, why don't we sit for a bit. We've been walking all day" Luigi said as he gestured for her to sit on the bench next to him. Both of them didn't wait up to sit nice and close and cozy like next to each other. Being as sly as he could, Luigi slowly wrapped an arm around Daisy's shoulder. He gently caressed it which gave Daisy slight shivers, not only of surprise but of suppressed excitement and happiness.

"It's always so beautiful at night…OH LOOK! A shooting star!" Daisy quickly closed her eyes making a wish.

"I have yet to have one of my wishes come true from a shooting star, but you know I never stop trying".

"Well…I made a wish recently myself," Luigi began.

"Really what was it?"

"Well…let's just say it already came true…just now." Luigi smiled intently looking into Daisy's eyes. Understanding his message yet giggling at its cheesiness, Daisy stared back up into Luigi's eyes in a dreamlike trance. Nothing else in the world mattered now, just them. Placing her hand on his shoulder she brought her face merely inches away from his the moment taking her breath away.

"Oh Luigi…." she whispered.

"Daisy…."

Gently taking her cheek in his hand he immersed himself in a fiery oblivion of passion. Daisy squeezed his shoulders tighter at the touch of his lips against his and only tighter still as his tongue began to dance with hers. As time went by which seemed like an eternity, their kisses only became more and more passionate with rapture and ecstasy. Luigi found his lip down her neck kissing and sucking on it lovingly, causing Daisy to let out a slight whimper of happiness and pleasure. She wrapped his arms around him hugging him tightly as he did this and he embraced her lips with his once more. It was a moment that would last forever…
