The Koopa King and His Baker

Chapter 3

Bowser's Pov.

After getting inside the castel I'm immediately tackled down by a little green blur.

"Papa! Papa! Your home! Do you know what today is?!" said Jr. I know his voice everywhere.

"Jr.! What are you doing!" I said. I hear laughing and both Jr and I looked to the person who was making the beautiful noise. It was Jacklynn, she was laughing at the situation I was in.

"Papa, who is this lady, and why is she here?" Jr said

"Jr. this is Jacklynn and she's here because I invited her to your birthday party today. She made something for you that you're going to like." I said sitting up with Jr sitting in my lap.

"Oh. Well nice to meet ya. What did you make for me?" Jr asked Jacklynn. She got down to his level and looked at him smiling.

"Well I can't tell you that now. It would ruin the surprise. You like surprises don't you?" she said.

"Of course! I love surprises!!" he said in excitement.

"Good, because your going to love this surprise." she said, getting him all excited.

"Now did you get your chores done? You know we can't have your party until your chores are done." I said holding him out in front of me.

"Not yet papa. I'll go get them done as fast as I can." He said and wiggled out of my hand and ran off.

"You're a great dad." Jacklynn said.

"Thanks. I try my best." I said and got up from the ground. I hold my hand out to help Jacklynn up from the ground. She takes my hand and I pull her up.

"Are you ready to continue the tour?" I said holding my arm out for her again.

"Yes. I would love to continue the tour." she said while taking my arm. We start walking and I tell her about the different rooms and what they are used for. We walked around for a good twenty minutes before we made it to the kitchen. When we go there I heard a rumbling noise.

"Sorry. We left my house before I was able to eat." she said with a blush on her face.

"Why didn't you say something. What do you want to eat? I can have one of the cooks make you something." I said.

"Oh no it's alright. I just need to know where a few ingredients are and I can make myself something." she said.

"You're welcome to anything in the kitchen." I said.

"Really? Well then I'm going to get started. Would you like something?" she said

"Sure. I'll eat whatever you fix." I said. She nodded her head and she started moving through the kitchen. She moved around so gracefully. She was quick and precise with everything she was doing. It is mesmerizing watching her move around the kitchen. When she started cooking it smelt amazing. 'She looks so natural and at home here. I would love to see her like this everyday. Cooking and being in the kitchen. I wonder if she would ever stay with me, and if she would be happy here.' I can't help but think to myself. I wonder why I've been thinking these things about her. While I was lost in thought I didn't realize that Jacklynn had set a plate of food in front of me.

"Do you not like french toast?" She asked breaking me out of my thought

"Hm. No, I like it. Sorry I was lost in thought." I said. I looked down and saw that she had set down a plate full of french toast with cut strawberries covered in syrup and powdered sugar. Honestly I've never had this before but it looks and smells amazing. I took a bite and couldn't help moaning at how amazing it tasted.
