Here's the 10th day! Will Marth find a new love interest? Will things work out for Samus and Ike? Will Mario get the courage to tell Peach how he feels about her? The world may never know. Disclaimer: "..."

Marth's POV: I saw a attractive woman that looked familiar. She recognized me and identified herself as Caeda, my old love interest. I must tell Peach I don't have feelings for her any more. I hope I don't break her heart. I show Caeda around the basic parts of the mansion, "I think I will like it here, especially since you are here." She said; the last part a with a flirty tone along with a smile.

"Peach, there is something I must tell you. I don't have feelings for you any more. I am sorry." She took that the exact opposite of what I had expected.
"That's fine. I have a thing for Mario. He knows it, but I don't know if he has feelings for me." I gave an innocent smile, or as innocent of a smile I could force. I knew Mario's feelings for Peach, but I know that it would be better if he told her himself.

Caeda's POV: I hope I wasn't too obvious. Though he has feelings for me, I hate being too obvious. Marth introduced me to his friends. I already met Peach, whom he had a previous crush on, Samus, Link & Zelda, which Marth said were in a relationship, Mario, Luigi, Daisy, and Ike, who seemed to be blunt, serious, lifeless, and above all else, cold. They all shook hands with me, save for Ike, who had left once Marth noted him. Then we chatted. "Since Ike left, when are you going to tell him Samus?" Peach said, with a knowing smile. So, Samus likes that handsome and serious person?
"I don't know, before Christmas." Then Peach Squealed.
"You to will look perfect together, I shall make the title for your marriage cards, The Bounty Hunter and Mercenary are please to announce their marriage. Has a nice ring to it?" Zelda and Peach both giggled with excitement. Link, Marth, and Mario laughed sarcastically at the title. I just smiled. It did have a good title. Samus blushed so bad, that she couldn't get any redder from embarrassment than that. Samus is a bounty hunter; and Ike is a mercenary, huh.

Samus' POV: I was blushing like mad. Why Peach?! "Back to business, we only have 8 more days to get everything cooked and made, and we need to get the kids a few activities to do. And now that Ike's back, let's decide what to do for Christmas Eve. I think we should have Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus. Who would like to volunteer?"
"We'd like to do it." Link and Zelda said.
"Ok, that settles that. Ike, do you have activities planned for the kids?" Peach said. Ike just left. Then we all heard Ike yell something like, "WHY?!"
"I'll take that as a no. So, what should we do to keep the kids occupied? I think we could have them write kind things to each other today, then continue doing activities until Eve. Then we will set out cookies and Milk for "Santa" who will be Link on Christmas Eve."
Here's the list Peach made: Today: kids write nice things to each other. 16: Children play Reindeer games. 17: Practice Christmas songs. 18: Play instruments. 19: Prepare for Christmas Party. 20: Have snowball fights. 21: Rehearsal. 22: Fire prep. 23: Christmas crafts. 24: Christmas Party. 25: Christmas! We have the kids do what the schedule says for today.

Mario's POV: I am thinking of some ways to confess to Peach. I will know eventually.

Well, how was that? The first question was answered. The other questions will be answered in later chapters. In the next ones, I will have a paragraph about what the kids do! Please R&R. -Clean writer.
