Before we begin this fanfiction, here is an important update.

I'm already seeing that everybody is excited to see the sequel to Dimensional Butterfly. I'm still in the thinking stage (where I'm still thinking of the story.), but I can assure you that the sequel will be up and running this year, and when it is, it's gonna be weird and wild!

In the meantime, this is a fanfiction for you Starco fans! I'm a Starco fan too, as I want the two of them to be together. I'm hoping the creator can give it to us at least before the show ends.

Also, a reply to guest reviewer: SHOOTINGSTAR15 (From Steven Universe: Dimensional Butterfly: Chapter 16.):

Thanks for your kind words. If you weren't here while I was making Dimensional Butterfly, I wouldn't even have planned on making a sequel. And I'm sure whatever idea you want to add in the sequel, it's gonna be even more weird and wild!

Again, thanks for your kind review. I'm sure Dimensional Butterfly will stay here for a long, long time. (Until gets discontinued, but who knows when?)

Okay then, now that the speech is finished, onto the story!

It was Monday in Star's neighborhood. The start of another week of school.

It was 6:30 in the morning, and Star woke up from bed. She quickly got up, took a shower, and got ready for school. Later on, at 7:00, Marco woke up, and did the same things as Star did. But when he was getting ready to leave the door, he noticed Star with a concerned look.

"What's the matter, Star?" asked Marco.

"Well…remember a while back when Tom asked me to go to the Blood Moon Ball?"

"Yeah…"

"When that Blood Moon Ball came, you came in and angered Tom, and I had to freeze him."

"Yeah…"

"I'm starting to think that…he might be coming for you for revenge. I mean, you accidentally stole the dance from him. Or…what if he's coming…for me?"

"I-I'm sure Tom could understand. Remember, he has been anger-free for 53 days back then."

"Yeah. I'm probably just worrying too much. So, are you going to do anything today?"

"I'm planning to ask Jackie to hang out in the mall with me later."

"Oooh…you're going to try to ask Jackie out. Finally." said Star, who looked a little bit annoyed. Not because Marco felt like spending time with Jackie over her, but because Marco constantly chickened out of asking her. Heck, he constantly chickened out of even talking to her.

"Is there a problem, Star?"

"No. I'm just saying, when are you actually going to ask her out on a…you know..." said Star. Marco at first, didn't know what she was saying, but then he got the picture.

"Not yet, Star. I can't rush this. I'll know when I'll ask her out on a 'date'. Right now, it's just me asking her out to hangout."

"You're slowing it too much. You barely talk to her. She barely talks to you. How will you know when it's time to ask her out on a date?"

"I…I just know." said Marco. "Now can we please go to school now? We're gonna be a little late."

"Okay…" Marco and Star left the house, and went inside the bus. When they entered school, they went to the classroom, and just did their regular stuff like they usually do in school: answering tests, studying, and trying to memorize everything.

Well, it was regular…until something terrible happened…after school.

School was immediately over, and Marco and Star were storing some stuff in their lockers.

"Now…are you finally gonna ask her out to hangout?" asked Star.

"Yes. This time, I'm not gonna cower. I'm finally gonna ask her out!" said Marco. "But first, I need to look good."

"Why? You look perfectly fine."

"Didn't you remember in science class, some of my hair got singed because of an experiment going wrong?"

"Oh yeah."

"I just need to look good so that I don't make a bad impression." said Marco. He then closed the locker and went to the bathroom, to fix his hair. While waiting for Marco to get back, Star noticed Jackie, putting something in her locker. She went to her.

"Hey Star." said Jackie.

"Hi, Jackie!" said Star, waving her hand.

"Where's your friend Marco?"

"Oh, he's just at the bathroom, just tidying up." Jackie giggled when Star said it.

"Well, your friend is the "Safe Kid", Star. He will always do something to make him feel safe and clean."

"Yeah, especially since he's doing some of it just for you…" Star mumbled to herself. However, she realized what she said, and closed her mouth. But the damage was done…

"Wait…what do you mean he's doing some of it just for me…"

"NO! WAIT! THAT'S NOT WHAT I SAID!" Star panicked. However, her panicking was attracting the crowd.

"That…explains why…he was always panicking whenever he was near me…he constantly panicked when he looked bad…and when he looked unsafe…"

"Jackie…it's not what you think! Marco's just doing it because he doesn't want to look awkward whenever he's near you!"

Jackie still took it a different way. Thinking of what Star said, she came to a conclusion.

"Marco…likes me?" asked Jackie.

"NONONONO! THAT'S NOT RIGHT!"

Unfortunately, everybody took it the same way. Everybody realized that Marco liked Jackie. What's even more unfortunate, was that Marco just got out of the bathroom, seeing what Star accidentally did. But…he didn't take it as an accident.

Jackie saw Marco and walked to him. Star cowered a little bit, as she saw Marco blushing uncontrollably.

"You…like me, Marco?" asked Jackie.

Marco couldn't hide it anymore, so he immediately told her:

"Yes. I do like you, Jackie."

Jackie quietly and quickly rushed away from the school. As soon as she left, everybody, except for Star, began laughing at Marco, teasing him about his crush on Jackie. As the laughing went on, Marco looked at Star, and he looked very, very angry. After all the laughing went down, since everybody had to go home, Marco went to Star, his head looking down on the floor, and his face completely red.

"Star…may I have a talk with you…alone?!" Marco said, gritting his teeth. Star completely cowered in fear when he said this. He never acted this angry before.

"Y-y-yes…" said Star, stuttering.

Star followed Marco through the school. As both went closer to somewhere private, Marco felt angrier, while Star felt more scared. Finally, they reached somewhere private: One of the classrooms. Marco and Star entered the place, and Marco was going to let all the fury out of him.

Okay, that's the end of the first chapter. What did you think? I'll see you all in the next one.
