( Part One based off Face the Music )
Marco finally got home after a long, confusing night at Mewni. No one, not ever Star could expect that kind of Song Day performance from Ruberiot. The magic high council is in disarray from the secrets Moon kept, while Marco just felt like a very strange and awkward trail mix. He was speechless then, and he's still speechless now.
Still in his royal attire, he noticed Star's door room shut off. He remembered back when they were still at Mewni, he was trying to confront her and discuss what exactly just happened at that very moment. Unfortunately, he barely said a word, and Star did her regular "avoiding situations" thing. He also remembered that he gave her his dimensional scissors before the event even began, so he figured Star would be home earlier than expected. So here he stood, hearing the silence of the hallways roaming around the Diaz household, only wishing for answers at the moment.
As he walked towards her door, he knocked on it a few times and asked, "Star, can I please talk to you? Do you have any idea what it took to get me back here? I mean, I know I let you use my dimensional scissors all the time, but come on!"
Not a sound was made from Star's room. Marco was unsure whether she was sleeping or if she was ignoring him by giving him the silent treatment, or some other reason. The only thing on his mind was to talk with her.
"C'mon, Star, I just wanna talk," Marco urged while still knocking on her door. "Was Ruberiot's song true? Do you really have a crush on me? I... I just wanna know."
Still no response. Marco stopped knocking on the door to sit down on the floor and lay his back on the door.
"Star, you just can't keep running away from your problems any longer. They're only just gonna keep coming back. If there really is something, I need to know. Especially if it's between us. So could you please come out and tell me?"
Again, nothing came out. Feeling really exhausted, while still being confused from the song, Marco reluctantly came off the ground and walked back to his room.
A couple minutes afterwards, Star opened up her door a tad bit and peeked her surroundings. She was no longer wearing her royal attire from the song day, but instead, she was wearing her casual pajamas. After her short peeking, she was grateful Marco was no longer hanging around her room. Seems like Janna was right about the advice regarding the silent treatment.
Still, whatever Marco said back there was still true. She knows she's been avoiding her problems for far too long. And just like what he says, these problems end up coming back to her. Nevertheless, she still felt in denial of her feelings for Marco. Does she have a crush on her best friend? Does Marco Diaz share the same feelings for her? Her thoughts just couldn't tell what she was thinking right now.
If only she could change the way it was back to normal.
So Star, anxiously waiting for a clear mind, closed her door once again, and attempts to go back to sleep, hoping to cure a true love's spell by sleeping it off.
