A/N: Hey everyone thanks for checking out my story. I just wanted to say this is my first time writing for this show that I'm a big fan of. I was kind of worried making this story since I've only written about anime, but I felt like it was worth a try since I'm a big fan and someone said this could be work as a story. Once again I hope you enjoy my first chapter, and please let me know what you think in the reviews.
It had been weeks since Star finally beat Ludo and got her book and Glossaryck back. Even though she got him back she had felt lonelier than ever. Since Marco and Jackie got together they weren't hanging out as often as they used to. Sure Marco was still making time to hang out with her, but she missed how often they used to do things together.
Even being at school she felt like an outsider since it seemed like Marco and Jackie were too focused on each other. Every time Star tried to say something it felt like they wouldn't stop talking. It got to the point she didn't even want to eat lunch with them and sometimes ate alone outside. One day she was eating outside when she had an unexpected meeting with a new student.
"Hey is this seat taken?" the guy said to Star. Star looked up and saw a young man around the same age as her wearing a black leather jacket and short brown hair.
"Ehhh no." Star said shocked someone came up to her to ask.
"Mind if I sit here?" he asked smiling. She was used to Janna or the others coming up and asking if she was alright, but she had never seen this person at school before. She was used to being asked if she was ok and then telling everyone that she just wanted to be alone. However she didn't expect to see someone new come up and ask if he could sit there.
"I guess its fine." Star said and then looking back down wishing she told him to leave instead.
"Thanks." He said offering his hand. "My name is Dave. Dave Mercury. I'm new here and I thought you could use some company."
"Hey Dave I'm Star." Starr said taking his hand and forcing a smile. He instantly sat down and pulled out a sandwich from the bag he was holding. They just sat there for a few minutes while they ate their lunch. Star was happy that he was at least staying quiet while he was next to her. After a few minutes he ended up breaking the silence.
"So I heard you're the magic girl." Dave said. "I heard you can do almost anything with your wand, and even fight monsters."
"Yeah that's me." Star said forcing another smile. "Star the magic girl that fights monsters."
"That's awesome." Dave said smiling. "That would be so cool to have magic powers and fight monsters all the time."
"Yeah it used to be so much fun." Star said looking down thinking about the good times she had with Marco. Dave immediately noticed she looked said and feared he was the cause.
"Hey I'm sorry if I said something." Dave apologized. "I didn't mean to make you upset."
"Oh no it's not you." Star said worried he was getting the wrong idea. "It's just I used to go on them with my best friend all the time, but now he's too busy to go with me as much as we used to."
"Oh I see." He said. "Have you tried talking to him about it? Maybe if he knows how you're feeling you can talk it out." The truth was star wanted to talk to him about it, but she didn't want to get in the way of him and Jackie now.
"He's got a girlfriend now and that's why me and him aren't hanging out as much anymore now." Star explained.
"Oh I see." He said.
"WAIT WHY AM I TELLING YOU ALL OF THIS!?" Star eventually realized she was telling him a lot for someone she had just met.
"I DON'T KNOW!" Dave yelled back in surprise. "I just asked a question, I didn't expect all of that."
"I'm sorry." Star said realizing she did go over the line yelling.
"It's fine." Dave said laughing. "I'm sure if I were in your shoes and some weirdo started asking questions I'd flip out to."
"Weirdo?" Star said laughing. "What makes you so weird?"
"Oh a lot of things." Dave said turning to her. "I'm always make random references no one gets, I listen too old music, and I love to go on stage and sing."
"You're a singer?" Star asked.
"Yeah I sing mostly old rock music if anyone ever wants to listen to it." Dave explained to her.
"Can you sing something right now?" Star asked. Before he could answer they heard the bell ring telling them lunch was over now.
"Sorry but it looks like we'll have to plan that for next time." Dave said smiling as he got up. He could tell Star was really interested in him singing and felt bad. "If you want I'm not doing anything after school if you want to meet up later. I still need someone to show me around, and I'd like to know more about my new friend."
"Who's your new friend?" Star asked.
"I was referring to you." Dave said laughing.
"Ohhhhhh." Star said realizing that probably sounded like a dumb question. She thought about it and realized since Marco was going with Jackie she didn't have anything else to do but walk home by herself. "Sure that sounds good with me."
"Great I'll meet you out front after class than." Dave said as he walked away and waved. "Nice meeting you Star."
"Nice meeting you to Dave." Star said waving back. She didn't realize that this was the most open she got since what had happened.
(after classes ended for the day)
Star was waiting outside in front wondering if Dave was really going to show up. After a few minutes she began to worry that he wasn't coming like he said he would. Her fear finally subsided when she felt a tap on her shoulder and turned to see who it was.
"Sorry about the wait." Dave said. "I'm still learning how to get around in this school so I forgot where the front was."
"Yeah I know the feeling." Star said smiling. "Usually I just use magic to get me out of places when I'm lost."
"Well then I should have you teach me how to do that." Dave said joking.
"So where do you want to go?" Star asked.
"You lead the way." Dave said. "I don't know where anything is so it's probably better that you go ahead instead of me."
"Sounds good with me." Star replied as she began to walk away from the school. She couldn't explain it but she was finally starting to feel happy like she used to around her new friend.
"So what's it like being a magical princess?" Dave asked as he walked with her.
