The Right One (Bowsario)

Lies

Bowser waited anxiously as Mario continued to nod in agreement for something. All he heard was the words "okay" and "yes". Mario ended the call. To Mario it felt like only a few minutes but to Bowser, it felt like many painful hours. Bowser looked at Mario with eyes just begging for information. The forest was quiet,  only the wind could heard. What Mario learned was too much for Bowser to handle. He knew he had to lie. A simple lie, but a lie that will protect him. A good lie, at least to him. 

"The princess was just talking about things she wants us to do. She kept telling me to be careful and that we only have 2 hours before coming back." Mario looked at Bowser. He had a convincing look, he flashed a smile to hopefully make him not talk more about it. Bowser put it to rest. Bowser was convinced of what Mario told him and proceed to lead the way to a special spot near the forest.  Mario was relived, but all truths come out eventually.   

As Mario walked besides Bowser he couldn't look at him without smiling. Bowser was very calm to someone who kept beating him over and over. In distance he could see a cliff. Mario walked confidently knowing that Bowser can't post a move on him. Not to mention that none of them have tried to kill each other brutally but they have fought also to the death before. If 1ups didn't exist they would both be died. Bowser would have killed Mario by tricking him and in a blind rage Luigi would kill Bowser. Luckily things never ended that way. 

Over the cliff was a beautiful landscape. You could see purple mountains and cherry trees with a mix of green trees. Lakitu's playing with each other by throwing their spike balls, Koopas having a mid flight conversation, as well as birds riding magic carpets. A creature Mario hasn't seen in a while.        

Bowser could easily push Mario off the cliff from how close they were. But it never came to his mind. For Mario has invited him to parties and races before. Not really often though, maybe like twice a year. Bowser will always get excited thinking that the Princess invited him. But it was always Mario. Not Luigi, not Daisy, not even Wario or Waluigi.  He even said that Bowser jr. can tag along if he wants to. Even if Mario was his enemy, he was a kind one. Bowser just couldn't help but be sweet and kind to him. All the thoughts in his mind to cuss him out, to make fun of him just came out as sweet affection.  

Mario was in aw of the view. He quickly took pictures with his phone to show Peach. Bowser was smiling seeing Mario's excitement. It was like a little kid at an amusement park for the first time. "Hey Bowser, is it alright that we head to your castle?" His tone was calm and caring. Bowser was blushing a little, seems like feelings were getting to him. "Yea! What exactly does the princess want?" Mario bite his lip, thinking as what to say. "She wants a picture of your throne room, to prove you're royalty" Mario said, his expression soft yet still. Bowser nodded and processed to head towards his castle. 

They decided to still hide in forest before walking in front of all Bowser's troops. "Mario I have to hold your hand tightly, otherwise they may think you're planning to hurt me or that you got control over me." Last time Mario didn't want to be hold. But he thought to himself thinking that it wasn't so bad after all. He liked being held, he felt protected and loved. "Sure, you can hold me if you want." Bowser's face got very red and the thought of holding him was sending excitement throughout his entire body. "Whatever you want my-" "Serious? About to nickname me again?" Mario cocked his eyebrow. Bowser wasn't looking at Mario direction and sweating furiously. Bowser coughed into his elbow sarcastically. "Do you know the basic's of flirting?" Bowser asked. Mario eyes when wide and he could feel himself heat up. He stepped back a bit and just stared at him shocked. 

"You were flirting with me?!" His face now red at thought. Mario couldn't help but be curious and happy. No one has ever flirted with him, it least that's what he thinks.  "No you idiot! I just-" He signed. "You don't know shit don't you?" Mario chucked a bit before getting a bit nervous. "Would it honestly surprise you if I say I didn't?" "Nope." Bowser said as he began to hold Mario like a bride once again. Mario refused to look at Bowser. As he continued to walk inside the castle a bunch of other enemies were starting to stare at Bowser. Seeing their great king hold his enemy so gently was harmful. It felt like a back stab to all of them. But none said a word.  

Once they were in the castle, Bowser made his move to his throne room. There was a red carpet leading to the chair. The chair had shining gold his arm rests and it's patting was soft red. The outlining of the big chair was all gold but inside it all green. The back side had green with white spikes coming out. Luckily there was no markings of him to make it look like it belonged to Bowser. So Mario took out his phone while still in Bowser's arms and took a photo. He smiled back at Bowser. "Let's-a-go get your girl" he said enthusiastically. Bowser just smiled back, thinking to himself that peach isn't the one he wants. And instead thinking that maybe he was chasing the wrong one. 

Without Mario knowing Bowser wants him, the lie he told was totally useless. Hiding it to not make Bowser sad would have the opposite effect.
