Luigi is three year old in this chapter. This take place three year after chapter four.
It was still early in the morning in the Mushroom Kingdom. Mario was in his room, fast asleep, and he looked so calm and peaceful as he slept. Unlike him, back then, Luigi was able to stay prim and proper even in sleep, and Mario seldom woke up with his hair all a mess.
It just so happened that Mario did not have his door closed, so when Luigi came wandering in, he was able to push his door open easily. The little green boy looked over and smiled at his sleeping older brother. Then he ran over to his bed and climbed up on to it. When he was on the bed, he crawled onto his back and sat down.
"Good morning!" he said cheerfully. When he got no immediate response, he added, "Look alive!"
Mario moaned sleepily. In a somewhat groggy voice, he said, "Mmmm, it's too early, Luigi."
"Please, Mario?"
Hearing Luigi speak again, Mario widened her eyes and woke up immediately. He raised his body up and looked behind him and saw Luigi sitting there. Although he was shocked to see his baby brother Luigi, he gently moved so he would not hurt him, then took him in his arms as he sat up.
"Luigi, bro, why are you out of your crib?"
"I climbed out," Luigi answered, as if it were as simple as that.
Mario's eyes widened even more. "You climbed out of your crib all by yourself?" Luigi nodded, then Mario smiled and scooped him into his embrace. "That's wonderful, little bro. I am so proud of you. You're getting to be a big boy! Well, do you know what this means, Luigi?" Mario said as he ruffled Luigi's head. "You are ready for your very own big boy bed!"
"Yay!" Luigi cried happily, clapping his hands. "I am a big boy!"
"You certainly are," Mario said, then scooped Luigi up into his arms. "But you're not too big for me to stop holding you."
"I hope I get big like you Mario!"
"Maybe one day you will, Luigi," Mario said. He leaned forward and gently tapped Luigi's nose, and the Italians brothers laughed.
More than one week after Luigi had climbed out of his crib alone and Princess Peach was told that he was ready for a bed, his new bed was finally ready. It had been constructed and put together by several carpenters, who had worked on it for almost the entire week. Since they had taken up much of the space in the nursery while building the bed, Luigi's crib was moved to Mario's room, and he still slept in it.
When the bed was finally ready, complete with a pillow, blanket, and sheets, Mario took one of Luigi's hands and led him to his room, while Peach walked in front of them. Once they reached the nursery, which had the door closed, Peach said, "Okay, Luigi, now close your eyes."
"Okay, Peach," Luigi said and obeyed. But when he started to open one eye, Peach caught him. "Ah, ah, no peeking!" she scolded, but she smiled as she said it.
So Luigi closed his eyes again. Peach opened the door and walked into the room, with Mario right behind. When they came within a close distance of the bed, Mario announced, "Okay, Luigi, you can open your eyes!"
And when Luigi did, he gasped at what he saw before him. The headboard and footboard were colored dark green, while the sheets and blanket were colored dark blue and green.
"My big boy bed!" he exclaimed. He let go of his older brother' hands and eagerly ran toward the bed. He had no trouble climbing up onto it, and once he got on, he immediately starting jumping on it with joy.
Mario and Princess Peach quickly started laughing at the sight, but Mario then said, "Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold it, you little jumping bean!", and he caught him in midair. "We know you're excited, but no jumping on the bed."
"Awww, why?" Luigi whined.
"Don't whine, Luigi," Peach spoke up. "So do you like your new bed?"
"I love it!" Then Luigi realized something. "What about my crib?"
"Well, bro, since you have your new bed, I'm gonna put the crib away for right now in the attic," Mario answered.
Later that night, when it was time for Luigi to go to bed, Peach have sadly left early after surprising Luigi with his new bed, it because she have some duty to do in her palace. But Mario came in to give Luigi his first tucking in in his new bed. He made sure he had adjusted the sheets and blanket so that Luigi would be comfortable. Mario carried Luigi into the room, then gently settled him into the bed. Once in the bed, Luigi crawled over to his pillow and lay his head down. Mario sat beside him and brought it up to Luigi's chest,
"So how do you feel in your new bed, Luigi?" Mario asked.
"I like it, but…" Luigi began.
"It feels different than being in a crib, doesn't it?" Mario stated.
"Yes, Mario."
"Well, it's normal to feel this way. You don't have bars surrounding your bed like your crib did, but your bed suits you well. It has plenty of room, so you shouldn't have to worry about falling out," Mario said.
"Okay, Mario."
"Do you think you'll be able to sleep okay?"
"I guess so."
"Well, you know my room are just across the hall, and I'll leave your doors open in case you need me during the night." Mario took one of his large hands and gently stroked the top of Luigi's head. "Good night, Luigi." He kissed Luigi in the same spot on the head. "I love you."
"I love you, Mario," Luigi said and reached out to touch his brother's face. Mario took one of Luigif's little hands and kissed it. He also gave Luigi a raspberry kiss on his cheek as Luigi giggle.
The red Italian man was about to leave the room. Before Mario could do or say anything, Luigi held his arms out to him. "Stay."
Mario widened his eyes in surprise, and felt more surprised when Luigi said, "Stay, Mario."
Mario walked over to the bed and knelt down. "You want me to stay with you, bro?" Luigi nodded, and Mario said, "You don't want to be alone on your first night in your new bed." Luigi shook his head no.
"Awww, don't worry, little bro. I'll stay as long as you need me to." Mario brightened when Luigi gave a little smile, then he reached up to touch his brother chubby cheek as he had done before. "I love you," he whispered gently.
Mario thought he felt tears brimming in his eyes. Every time Luigi said he loved him, it always filled him with warmth and happiness that felt stronger than other times when he had been happy. He honestly never thought He could love Luigi as a kid so much, and like that for his adult version, Mario's love for Luigi was so strong that he always forgot to be afraid of putting him in danger.
Choking back his tears, Mario sniffled. "I love you, too, Luigi. More than anything in the world."
He gently reached down towards Luigi to give him a small hug, and he hugged him as much as he could. Then Mario kissed his little nose, and he returned the gesture.
That's right people! I'm trying to kill you with cute and fluffiness! Mwahahahahahahahahaha!
