Ah, that was nice enough. Never, EVER doing it again probably, but, it was nice.

Bowsette laid at the side of the best, with Peach in the middle and Mario at the other side, with the two on the outer edges pulling the covers towards each other because the other was obviously hogging them.

This... wasn’t supposed to happen again. Especially not like this.

But... it did.

And... yeah.

“That was fun,” Peach said.

“Quite,” Mario said.

Bowsette was silent, and Peach turned her head to look at her.

“Eh, it was cool, I guess...”

“Bowsette...”

“Okay, I think this was really awkward and we shouldn’t have done it,” Bowsette said. “But the tension was there and obviously it was going to happen at some point, so, like, whatever.”

Peach giggled. “For such a strong woman you get flustered so easily.”

“I’m not flustered! I’m just... yeah, I’m flustered.”

“We already did it,” Mario said. “No take backs now.”

“I knoooooow, I just wonder if this will, ya know, impact our ability to be a team or whatever.”

“Oh, actually...” Mario began. “Luigi and I got called by Rosalina yesterday. We’re... going off an a galactic adventure.”

“What?! No way. Dude, we can’t defeat Morton Koopa without you!” Bowsette yelled.

“Shhh, keep it down, we’re pillow talking,” Peach said, before kissing Bowsette on the lips. “Seriously though, what the heck Mario?”

“It’s-a serious,” he said. “Tatanga has returned, and he is going to launch one of the moons of Saturn so it will collide with the Earth! That’s much bigger than a Dread Lord, right?”

“Uhh.... fair point,” Bowsette said.

“Well, we’ll definitely miss you two,” Peach said. “Take care, though.”

Mario leaned over Peach and kissed her. “I’ll be fine.”

“Hey, don’t kiss my wife-- agh, sorry, I know, this is weird,” Bowsette said. “I’m so weirded out by this deal. I don’t want to do it again.”

“Well, we had to see how it would work,” Peach said. “You mentioned it like five times in the last two weeks.”

“Did not!”

“I mean, you didn’t suggest it, but you mentioned the fact it could happen way too often for it to be a coincidence. I thought this might... be more fun for you.”

“It was fun, it was fun! I’m just too much of the jealous type. Sorry...” Bowser made a pouty face, so Peach took her cheeks and stretched them. “Ow, I hate it when you do that.”

“You’re the silliest villain I’’ve ever met.”

“I’m just emotionally vulnerable, geez.”

The three of them laid in bed for a couple more minutes, cuddling as a unit, and Bowsette tried to warm up to the idea of all of this. It was... quite difficult. The fact that it was as enjoyable as it was did not prevent Bowsette from feeling like a complete jerk about it, and overriding that just temporarily was nearly impossible.

Still, she was glad Peach was open to stuff like this, and she was glad that she was able to help make Peach happy. That’s what really mattered. If they were going to spend the rest of their lives together, it wouldn’t be wise at all to start it off being a jerk about everything and dismissing it out of hand... even if Bowsette was very uncomfortable with it... Oaky actually no, Bowsette should have just said no. She was a total pushover though.

How in the heck was Bowsette going to handle a domestic home life with her, if the two of them actually made it through with the soon-arriving war? She’d never really had one her entire life, seeing as Clawdia left her before she had finally cemented peace within Dark Land, and Kylie Koopa was the furthest thing from a stable relationship one could have. It was going to be weird enough explaining to her kids that she was a woman, let alone that she had married Peach, who was no longer a Princess, or a King for that matter. Everything had changed so dramatically that it was pretty weird to think about!

In classic Bowsette fashion, she had overthought this to such a degree that it was no longer possible for her to figure out how she and Peach would actually fare in a normal, stable relationship without impending world destruction and such. Whatever. She was just going to hope for the best.

“Well, I’m ready again if you are,” Mario said. “How about you?”

“I’ll sit this one out,” Peach said.

“Count me in,” said Bowsette. Despite her mental reservations, her libido had no shame in continuing this. She sat up and leaned over her wife to embrace Mario in a hug. “No kissing though. Not doing it.”

“Whatever you want, princess.”

“No, technically it’s Queen. Or Former Queen. I don’t know what my title is now. Just call me Lordess.”

“Not happening,” Mario said, leaping across the bed across Peach and to Bowsette’s side. He accidentally bumped into Peach though and made her growl.

So this was definitely a one-time deal, Bowsette decided. But she’d make it count while it lasted.
