Hey guys, sorry I haven't updated Writer's Block, I ironically have a mix of writer's block and life getting in the way.I have decided to write a nice oneshot to pass the time.Mewni. 2:20 A.M. Star Butterfly could not sleep. At all.
The sad thing was that when she had these sleepless nights, she knew what the problem was. Too much caffeine, her mother's strict rules, the pressure of being queen in the future, etc., but tonight, she was just sleepless.
She wasn't an insomniac by any means. These sleepless nights came once every now and then, but this was the third straight night this had happened. And she couldn't pinpoint why.
She stared up at the ceiling again, processing her situation. Damn, she wished she had someone to talk to.
How long had it been since she killed Toffee? Three months? On Earth, Marco should be going back to school soon. Her mother told her she'd go back when school popped up again.
She had seen Marco twice since that moment, and they texted seldom. She had no idea why. Just nothing to talk about? Nothing was really happening on Mewni.
Why did her mother not let Marco stay again? Star had forgotten.
Much like how she had forgotten that she was awake at 2:28.
Oh yeah, that.
Maybe... it's just boredom. No, why the hell would she think that? Boredom made her tired.
Maybe? Ah, what the hell, she couldn't even come up with two excuses.
She rolled to her right. There on the chair to her bedside was Marco's hoodie, the one she had brought to Mewni. It still had only one sleeve. That didn't stop her from wearing it though.
Her heart skipped a beat when she saw it.
No it didn't. Did not. Nope.
Oh fuck it.
She kept trying to ignore it. He didn't like her. Why try to make a move when you know you frozen in place?
But was ignoring it healthy? Was being over Marco healthy? Was it worth it? Was she even over Marco?
That last one got her attention.
She hadn't seen him in three months! No chemistry at all! Yeah, she was over him!
Then again, every time she thought that, she would spend a median of thirty seconds around him and she'd do a complete 180.
But... three months!
It was like her brain was a used car salesman. Trying to sell her an idea that was obviously full of shit.
She then turned her focus back to Marco. Why she well, loved him in the first place. He was a good conversation, he was a guardian, he was his friend first and romantic partner last (a rarity on Mewni). Every single compliment on that list made her heart once again skip a beat.
Maybe she knew why now.
Yeah.
Stop pretending and love him. You know you love him. You ignore it, you'll have more nights like this.
Face it, as far as you know, there is nothing that will ever stop you from loving Marco.
You will never stop loving Marco.
Fifteen minutes later, Star was asleep.
She dreamt of seeing Marco again, catching up at a small coffee shop.
This is more or less my thoughts right now. I needed to articulate my thoughts and be at peace with myself.
Thanks for reading.
