Chapter 16:
Good News, Bad News

...

On the opposite side of the party, Wendy had led Luigi the garden area, a place they could talk in with no one around. Wendy seems quite please with the outcome with Daisy. The flower princess looked ready to blow her top off the last they left her. And to have a bunch of witnesses around to see her lose her cool was just the icing on the cake.

"So greenie, was I good or what?" she smiled "That princess was like a ticking time bomb when she saw us. And the look on her face when I kissed you…she was like a volcano she turned so red."

Luigi frowned. He knew he originally asked Wendy to be his date to make Daisy jealous, but now he was having some second thoughts. He mentally prepared himself before he spoke.

"Y-You know Wendy; you don't have to do this."

Wendy turned to him and scowled. "What do you mean? Don't tell me you're starting to chicken out, are you?"

"Well, yeah," he confessed. "It's my fault… and I'm sorry. I shouldn't have dragged you into my problems with Daisy. So as an apology, I wonder like you to be my actual date and…" He blushes and finish in a quiet voice. "…possibly more,"

Wendy raised a brow. "What do you mean 'and possibly more'?"

Luigi took a deep sigh and explain. "The truth is Wendy, I like you and I mean more so than a friend."

Wendy was shock at what she was hearing; she couldn't speak. Luigi case his head done and resume with what he was saying.

"I know our time together was short, not enough time to even label us as friends. But when I looked into your eyes, I felt a spark inside me. And when I saw you this evening…I felt something I haven't felt in a while."

He looks back to her and catches her eyes with his own. "So, I'm asking you Wendy if you would like to be my girlfriend?"

Wendy turned away from him. She didn't know what to think; she was having a dilemma. On one hand, her head was saying 'No! We're enemies! We're shouldn't be hooking up. What will King Dad think about this?' One the other hand, her heart was saying 'Yes! Hook up! He just said he likes you and it's obvious you like him, Kammy even says so herself. Who cares what Bowser thinks about it? As long as you're happy, that's what matters.'

Luigi stood next to her silently waiting for her answer. A part of him told him she was going to say 'no'. With the two being enemies, a relationship between the two will mostly cause more problems than there already were. But still, he couldn't deny the blossom he felt for the pink koopa turned human; a blossom that continues to grow every second she's around him. After several long minutes – which felt like hours in Luigi's opinion – Wendy decided to screw it and gave him a reply.

"You know what, Luigi…" she started. "Believe it or not, I actually like you too, and I do mean more than a friend."

She turned to him with a slight blush on her face. "So I guess it's only right when I say…yes, I would like to be your girlfriend."

Luigi smiled. This wasn't any ordinary smile; this one look like it could bright up the whole room. He was so happy that he could just kiss Wendy right now…

And that's exactly what he did.

...

Toadsworth stood on the sidelines of the party, hoping to catch a sign of Luigi and his new lady friend. He had first spotted them when they entered, as did everyone else in the room, but he didn't get the chance to greet them earlier. Now he was looking for them to welcome them properly and to introduce himself to the mystery lady that Luigi had brought with him.

He finally caught a glance of the two heading towards the garden area. As quickly as he could, he made his way through the crowd, silently wishing he was a taller individual. When he finally made it out of the sea of bodies, he entered the garden area in search for the man and woman. He spotted the two, under the moonlight, surrounded by flowers, talking among each other. As he approaches them, he caught the tail end of their conversation.

"So I guess it's only right when I say…yes, I would like to be your girlfriend."

Toadsworth can't recall ever seeing a smile as big as Luigi's on anyone, not even Mario. The green-clad man looked so happy that, among his excitement, he actually lean in and kissed his new-found girlfriend… right on the lips. The lady looked surprise at first, but she soon relaxed and close her eyes, enjoying the kiss.

At this point, Toadsworth felt like a peeping tom. As quietly as he could be, Toadsworth turn around and headed back inside towards the party. He could always talk with them later. For now, he was going to let them have their private time.

...

Although Wendy had dated before, she never kissed anyone passed the cheek. She often dreamt what her first real kiss would be like with a guy she really likes. Of course, her dreams are nothing comparing to it exactly happening.

They parted slowly; both their faces were red from the unsuspecting kiss. Luigi laugh nervously and look down. He didn't mean to kiss Wendy like that; he was just so happy that she actually agreed to be his girlfriend.

"I'm...sorry," he said, "I didn't mean to kiss you like that...I guess I got excited."

Wendy raised an eye brow. "Well now I'm confused; this is my first time kissing anyone. If that wasn't the way you're supposed to kiss me... care to tell me than what was?"

Luigi look up at her, slightly ashamed of himself for stealing her first kiss. "Well," he started explaining "First of all, I wasn't supposed to surprise you like that."

"Yeah," Wendy replies.

"Next, we're both will have to lean into each other."

"Okay,"

"We press our lips together and then..."

"We kiss?" Luigi nodded. Wendy smirked inwardly. "Well then, care to demonstrate it for me?"

Luigi just could not stop blushing tonight. That just goes to show you just how much he's crushing on Wendy right now.

"S-Sure,"

Wendy lean forward and Luigi did the same. The two press their lips together leading into a more timid, passionate kiss.

...

...

Away from the party, Mario, Peach, and Daisy were all standing in Daisy's room. Daisy was pacing back and forth, angrily ranking about Lady Fettuccine. Mario and Peach stood by the door, listening to her outburst.

"...And not only did she had the nerve to challenge me, but she also had the goal to kiss him... right in front of me, too!" She complains. "I swear she was lucky there were a lot of people in the room or else she would be a bloody mess on the floor right now."

Peach sighed, a bit disappointed in her friend's behavior. However, she could sympathize with what she was feelings. She couldn't imagine what she'll do if she saw Mario in the arms of another woman. A knock on the door drew her attention. She left to answer it.

"Who is it?"

"It's me, princess."

Peach opens the door to reveal Toadsworth on the other side. "I say, what are you all doing in here? The party's downstairs."

"Daisy needed some time to herself."

"I see…" Toadsworth turn to the orange princess to see her pacing around. "This doesn't happen to involve with Master Luigi's lady friend, does it?"

Daisy growled; a clear answer to his question. "I'm afraid so," said Peach.

Toadsworth place a hand on his chin in thought. "Hm, have you already met the lady?"

"Yes. Her name is Lady Fettuccine Alfredo. She seems a bit…bold, but nice and Luigi seems to like her very much."

"Yeah, he likes her alright." Mario smirked.

Peach gave him a disapproving look. Mario smiled to her apologetically. Toadsworth frowned.

"I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, princess, but I recently saw Master Luigi and Lady Alfredo in the garden. While I didn't get a chance to speak with the two of them, I did overhear a bit of their conversation and it seems that the two had agreed to become intimate with each other."

"What?!" Daisy yelled. "How could he be getting intimate with her when we're suppose to get back together tonight?"

"Daisy, Luigi doesn't know you want to get back together nor does he know things will be different between the two of you for now on." Peach explains "Right now, he still thinks a relationship with you will end in the same way as it did before."

Daisy growled and headed towards the door. Once out in the hall, Peach called out to her. "Where are you going?"

"I'm going to talk to Luigi."

Peach shared a worried glance with Mario and Toadsworth. She fears with Daisy's temper, the confrontation will end up with a fight. Sensing her fear, Mario and Toadsworth hurry beside her. The three rush through the halls hoping to catch up with Daisy before she does something regretful.

...

Luigi and Wendy pull away slowly from their second kiss, catching a quick breath as they did. Their faces were red from blushing so much and there were smiles present as well.

"Hm, I can't believe I'm saying this but you're not a bad kisser for a plumber." Wendy comment.

"Thank you." Luigi said, his blush slowly fading.

Wendy sighed softly. "Well, we better get back inside and enjoy the rest of this party."

"I guess you're right,"

The two head back to the party, both holding each other hand. Once back inside, a new song started playing; one that was very popular when it first came out and is still popular when it comes to wedding parties. Luigi pause from his walk and turns to face Wendy. He bows to her and ask for her hand in a dance.

"May I have this dance, my Lady" he asked.

Wendy smiled and bows to him. "You may my good man"

Luigi offer his hand to her which Wendy happily accepts. There were many other couples making their way to the dance floor as well. The two found a spot in the center. First, they bow then got into their dancing position; both holding one hand of their partner, and "embracing" each other. They danced in a slow dignified circle as the lead singer started singing.

I will never find another lover sweeter than you,
Sweeter than you
And I will never find another lover more precious than you
More precious than you
Girl you are close to me you're like my mother,
Close to me you're like my father,
Close to me you're like my sister,
Close to me you're like my brother
You are the only one my everything and for you this song I sing

Chorus:
And all my life I've prayed for someone like you
And I thank God that I, that I finally found you
All my life I've prayed for someone like you
And I hope that you feel the same way too
Yes, I pray that you do love me too

As the two dances, Daisy appeared, searching aimlessly for the new couple. She spots them on the dance floor, oblivious to everyone but each other. She puffed and started to advance towards them. She stopped, however, when Peach grabs her arm. She glared,

"Peach…" she started, but Peach interrupted her.

"Daisy, I know how you are feeling and I want you and Luigi to get back together, but trust me when I tell you that now is not the time." She said. "I'm asking you as a friend, not to confront him at this moment. If you do, you'll look like the bad guy in front of him and everyone else."

Daisy scowled. "So when can I talk to him?"

"After the party; once everyone's gone, you can talk to him without anyone accusing you."

Daisy thought about for a moment and turn back to the dancing couple. A wave of anger ran through her but also a wave of sadness. She took a deep breath in an attempt to calm herself and sigh.

"Fine, we'll do it your way." She mumbled.

Peach nodded. She could see Daisy was in great pain seeing Luigi with someone else so she leaded Daisy back to her room with Toadsworth right behind them. Mario walked them go before turning to look at his brother. He was glad to see his brother happy again, but he was suspicious on why he didn't tell him about Lady Fettuccine sooner or when he met her in the first place. He was also worries about Daisy and their recent relationship. He sighed and followed Peach to Daisy's room. Hopefully, everything will turn out alright in the end.
