"Ugh," Marco grimaced, trying get the purple goop off of his arm. Ugh, why did that monster have to fire purple slime at them? Then again, this wasn't the first time this happened...
"Hold on," Star said, pointing her wand at her friend. She sent a blast at magic at him, which caused a gust of wind to hurl at him. Marco's hair stuck in all directions.
Star winced slightly. "Sorry."
"It's fine," he shrugged off, running his finger through his hair to fix it.
As Marco stepped inside of the house, Star pointed her wand at herself, blasting away the gunk. As Star walked inside of the house, Marco eyes were glued to a flyer. What was he looking at?
"That's on this year?" Marco blurted out before she had the chance to say anything.
"Huh?" Star said, walking towards him.
"The Valentine's Day Dance," Marco said, looking at her. "Surprised they are having it again this year, especially with Toffee crashing it last year."
"Oh, that dance! We took care of that sucker good."
"Got that one right," Marco said, giving a smile back to her.
Marco paused. This was it. Time to ask her out.
"Star," he began.
"Yeah?"
A deep breath escaped him. This was it.
"Would you want to go with me this year?" Marco said under his breath.
She raised a brow at this. "Run by that me again?"
"Nothing," Marco said, shifting his eyes away.
"He said he wants you to go with him to the dance as his date!" Miss Diaz said through the doorway.
"Mom!" Marco said, red on the cheeks.
Star kissed him on the cheek. "I love too."
