You didn't know how you'd gotten to the Mushroom Kingdom. You didn't even remember. Well, it stood to reason you wouldn't remember if you'd arrived while you were sleeping. Everything seemed so unreal, so magical. You were the only human in a place full of little beings called Toads, but they'd welcomed you kindly. Even their princess, Peach, along with Daisy and Rosalina, had welcomed you. Peach had invited you to her palace to explain that if you couldn't return to your world, you could stay and live there. You accepted. What other choice did you have? And besides, there was something in her eyes, in her words, that made you feel... special. Even though you didn't know the truth.

What you didn't know was that Peach had used one of the magic tubes to visit your world. She'd seen you, asleep, vulnerable, perfect. She told Daisy and Rosalina everything, and all three agreed: they couldn't leave you there. So they brought you back, asleep, carefully, lovingly, as if you were a treasure in need of protection. Since then, they watched you. They cared for you. They loved you. In silence.

One morning, in the Mushroom Kingdom, you woke up. You felt warmth, softness, something different. When you opened your eyes, you realized: it wasn't your room. The walls were a pale pink, the decor luxurious, with lace curtains, heart-shaped pillows, a sweet perfume floating in the air. You were in Princess Peach's bedroom.

You tried to move, but something stopped you. It wasn't fear. It was... surprise. To your right, Peach and Daisy were sleeping, their breathing soft, their faces relaxed, a faint smile on their lips. Their pajamas were adorable, almost too perfect. To your left, Rosalina rested, her arm brushing yours, her long golden hair falling like a waterfall of light.

You didn't know what you were doing there, but what you did know was that you hadn't walked here while you were sleeping.
