Chapter 16: Epilogue

(One year later)

(Daisy's POV)

"Ow!" Amber yelped.

"Sorry, kiddo," I chuckled. "Did I tie the ribbon too tight again?"

"Just a little," she answered. "Nervous?"

"Beyond all rational thought," I answered honestly.

"Why?" This question came from Peach, who was here with me along with Toadette and Rosalina. "This is only supposed to be the happiest day of your life."

"I know, but I'm still nervous," I replied.

"I can't believe he finally proposed!" Toadette squealed. "This wedding is going to be magical."

"Especially since it almost didn't happen," Rosalina said.

"Yeah," Peach agreed. "You're lucky to be alive, let alone about to get married."

"Yeah, I know," I said. I took a look at Amber; she was wearing a pale yellow dress with a white ribbon tied in the front. Her hair was in a bun and wrapped with a white ribbon. "You look so beautiful, kiddo."

"Thanks, mommy," she replied, blushing just a tad. "So do you."

The girls murmured in agreement. My white wedding dress was like my traditional dress, slimmer at the top and poofy at the bottom. It had two rows of orange ruffles lining the bottom of the dress with white daisies at the tip of each top-row ruffle. A thick orange ribbon was tied into a bow behind my back. I wore wrist-long gloves, a veil, and just a bit of makeup: black mascara, golden eyeshadow, and red lipstick. That's it. I'm not very big on wearing makeup, truthfully. But I still looked like the bride I've always wanted to be.

"Thank you everybody for everything," I said, picking up a bouquet of roses; Peach did a wonderful job picking out my bridal bouquet...even if red roses was a bit cliche. "I couldn't have asked for better bridesmaids. This surely is going to be a magical night."

"Oh, we'd better get going!" Peach cried. "You're supposed to be at the beach in half an hour." Yes, I was having my wedding at the beach. Peach Beach to be exact. At sundown. Which, as Peach said, was in half an hour.

"Well, let's go!" I shouted happily, and we raced off to the limo.

As the flower girl, Amber waited with me behind the crowd for my cue. The area was blocked off, so no one could see me. I didn't expect such a crowd; the area was packed with people, sitting down in seats and standing up around the area, from the Mushroom Kingdom, Sarasaland, and even Bowser and his kids showed up. As I nervously took a breath, Amber tugged at my arm slightly.

"I'm so happy that Luigi is going to be my daddy!" she said quietly.

"I know, right," I agreed. "I just know he'll make a great dad."

"Me, too," Amber replied.

Canon in D started playing. The audience stood up. After a few verses of the song, Amber walked out and down the isle, sprinkling flower petals as she went. I took a deep breath and stepped out from where I was. I blushed slightly as I heard light gasps, and saw awestruck faces. I looked at Luigi, who was standing at the alter waiting for me; he was smiling like never before. I smiled back in the same manner.

"Why...she's an angel!" I heard Luigi sigh.

I slowly made my way downstairs the long isle. I felt tears welling in my eyes. It was so hard to believe this was finally happening! I was finally getting married to Luigi! I reached him at last, handing my bouquet to Peach, my maid of honor, who was already crying. He held out his hand and hugged me. When we pulled away, we rubbed noses affectionately before he took both of my hands in his.

"You look very handsome, Luigi," I said. He wore a black blazer and a green bow tie. He didn't wear his cap to show off his hair.

"And you look more beautiful than ever before," he replied. I beamed, a tear running down my cheek. Waterproof mascara was the best invention ever.

"Dearest friends and family," Toadsworth announced. "We are gathered here today to celebrate the union of Luigi Mario and Princess Daisy Sarasa. The love between these two young individuals is so strong, so powerful, death was even cheated so this love could live on. These two have been through so much together, as friends, as lovers, and shall go through whatever comes their way, as a family."

A chorus of "Aww"s rang in the crowd as Toadsworth continued.

"Do you, Luigi Mario, take Princess Daisy Sarasa to be your lawfully wedded wife, to love and honor, in good times and bad, in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, as long as you both shall live?"

"I do," he said in a near whisper. I smiled even more, if it was even possible.

"And do you, Princess Daisy, take Luigi Mario to be your lawfully wedded husband, to love and honor, in good times and bad, in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, as long as you both shall live?"

"I absolutely do," I said with no hesitation,

"If there is anyone here who objects to this marriage, please speak now, or forever hold your peace." When there was a blissful silence in response, Toadsworth grinned and said, "Then, may we have the rings?" Diego, the ring bearer, held up the rings on a pillow. Peach picked up Luigi's ring and gave it to me. Mario, the best man, gave Luigi the other ring. We held out our left hands and slipped the rings on.

"By the power vested in me, I hereby pronounce you husband and wife! You may now kiss the bride!" Toadsworth announced.

Luigi grabbed my waist and pulled me into the biggest, most romantic kiss he's ever given me. The crowd went absolutely nuts. But I didn't care. My heart was racing at a million miles an hour. I knew then and there, I was the luckiest person in the whole world. When we pulled apart, Toadsworth placed a golden King's crown on Luigi's head, crowning him King of Sarasaland. And I was his queen.

The reception was also held on the beach, in a different area. When we got there, there was a DJ station already set up and playing some upbeat music. Everybody talked, a few people were dancing, and some others were playing in the water a little. Me? Well, I was sitting down at a table, cuddling with my family; Amber was in my lap, and Luigi sitting in a chair next to me, all of our arms around each other.

When it was almost time for the first dance of the bride and groom, Amber looked at me and said, "I need to go somewhere. I'll be right back." Before I could say anything, she jumped up and ran towards Diego. The kids went off with his mother. I looked at Luigi, who shrugged at me and said, "They'll be fine."

A couple of minutes later, Peach gently tapped a microphone, its feedback getting the attention of the guests.

"Attention everyone!" She called into the microphone. "I hope you all are having a great time! Let's give another round of applause for our lovely couple!" Loud, and I mean VERY loud, cheering and clapping came in response. Luigi and I smiled at each other and pulled each other into another embrace.

"I know, I know! Aren't they the cutest couple ever?" Peach asked jokingly. More cheers and a few whoops sounded, making us blush in embarrassment. "Well, it's finally time for their first dance as husband and wife. Luigi and Daisy?" She signaled us to come up and take the dance floor.

The lights dimmed slightly, and a soft flute melody played. I immediately recognized the song as "My heart will go on" from Titanic. A spotlight hit the stage and my jaw dropped when I saw who the singer was.

Every night in my dreams

I see you, I feel you

That is how I know you go on

Was that my Amber? Her voice was amazing! It's almost not embarrassing that a seven-year-old can sing better than I can. I mean, I'm not terrible, but still. I turned to Luigi, we took each other's hands, and began to dance as Amber continued to sing.

Far across the distance

And spaces between us

You have come to show you go on

Near, far

Wherever you are

I believe that the heart does go on

Once more

You open the door

And you're here in my heart and

My heart will go on and on

I was in love with her voice. Having her sing the song for our first dance made it so much more magical on so many levels. However, what happened next both shocked and pleased me.

Love can touch us one time

And last for a lifetime

And never let go till we're gone

I turned to the stage; that was Diego singing. His voice is no less astounding than Amber's. Luigi and I smiled at each other and pulled each other closer, my head resting on his shoulder.

Love was when I loved you

One true time I hold to

In my life we'll always go on

Near, far

Wherever you are

I believe that the heart does go on

Once more

You open the door

And you're here in my heart and

My heart will go on and on

A soft instrumental played. I looked up at Luigi and smiled. He did the same. He surprised me with a kiss on the nose, causing me to blush and giggle. I put my head back on his shoulder and we wrapped our arms around one another. I turned to the kids to see them smile shyly at each other and hold each other's hands.

You're here

There's nothing I fear

And I know that my heart will go on

They sang together. The harmony between them was perfect. Tears started flowing from my eyes. Luigi gently wiped them off of my face. Moved by the duet, we tightened out hold on one another. Between us and them, it was probably the most beautiful, moving, romantic, and memorable moment in my entire life.

We'll stay

Forever this way

You are safe in my heart and

My heart will go on and on...

The tears in my eyes and the smile on my face couldn't accurately reflect how happy I felt and how moved I was by their song. Neither could Luigi's, I could tell. Amber ran towards us, and we bent down and all wrapped each other in the biggest group hug we've ever shared.

"That was so beautiful, Amber," I said, my voice muddled with tears.

"We're so proud of you," Luigi added.

"Thank you, mommy. Thank you, daddy," she replied. "I thought it would make you happy."

"It did," I told her. "It made us so happy."

I loved the food; usually large events like this stress out the cooks, but it was absolutely delicious. My favorite part was the wedding cake. Peach was actually the one to make our wedding cake: chocolate cake with whipped cream and chocolate sauce in between the layers (a favorite between all three of us) and four tiers. The first tier was iced in green frosting with blue stripes; obviously for Luigi. The second was for me: orange and yellow stripes with icing daisies polka-dotted around it. The third tier probably took the longest, it was a pale yellow frosted tier with elaborate bright yellow and green details around it. The top was a simple white with a white chocolate heart standing out of the top, little figurines of us in front it. It was so beautiful and tasted so good.

To sum it all up, Luigi and I danced beautifully, the food was delicious, and the party itself was just the greatest time I've ever had. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding.

It was late at night now; the wedding was over. Luigi and I were ready to head off to the real world for our honeymoon. We planned to be gone for a couple of months and do some sightseeing around the world.

"Are you sure you don't want to come with us, Amber?" I asked.

"No, ma'am," she said. "It's your honeymoon. You two deserve to be alone for a while."

"You guys are sure you don't mind watching her?" I asked Peach.

"Of course not," she assured. "Don't worry about any of it. Just enjoy your honeymoon."

"Okay, then," I said. I turned to Luigi and smiled. "So, where first, my sweet king?"

"Wherever the day takes us, my lovely queen," he responded smirking. I giggled, and he opened the door for me to the carriage that was to carry us to the airport. When we got in, it started pulling off.

"Bye Mommy! Bye Daddy!" Amber called.

"Bye everybody! See you in a couple of months!" We yelled back in unison. As the carriage pulled away, I turned to Luigi and asked, "So, are you happy Luigi?"

"Oh, so very much," he said.

"So happy to have married a woman like me?" I questioned.

"And to have a beautiful daughter who's as sweet and bubbly and adorable as you," he replied. I sighed, blushed, and kissed him on the lips. "So, are you happy?"

"Happy to have married a brave, caring, knight in shining armor?" I asked. "Absolutely."

We kissed again and rode off into the night. Our life together was sure to be an adventure. Heck, just getting here was an adventure. But the one to come will be one that I will welcome with open arms as long as I had Luigi and Amber with me. It's just as I knew we would be. One big happy family. I know that no matter what happens, that will never change.

And we lived happily ever after. Cheesy, I know. But too true.

...

Well..for now, at least.

The End


That's all folks!

I can't believe this story is over. I know I said this last chapter, but it really feels like yesterday I uploaded the first chapter. I can't thank everyone enough for all of the love and support this story has gotten. It's meant so much to me.

Oh, and now I can reveal my little secret.

While I was working on this story, I was also working on a sequel. With any luck, I'll be uploading the sequel before the end of the year. Until then, stay awesome!

1 Luigi x Daisy fan, out!
