Normally I do research on the types of fanfics fandoms commonly have and I haven't even seen all the current episodes but I need to write this be cause I am totally not okay about these characters relationships. This takes place after Jackie and Marco "go to the dance".
Tom sat in his living room trying not to get mad at his TV remote which wasn't working. Star walked in and laid on the couch with her feet in Tom's lap and her head against the arm rest. Tom stopped hitting the remote against his hand and looked at her, "Why are you in my house? Not that I don't enjoy your presence I'm just confused."
"Your mom let me in, did you tell her we broke up?" asked Star half heartedly.
"No, that wouldn't go very well, why?" Tom questioned.
Star sat up and stared at him, "She opened the door with our wedding planning album under her arm, you know the one she started making when I was born?"
"I thought it was when I was born, aren't you two weeks older than me?" Tom started at the TV in thought.
"I honestly don't remember, it doesn't even matter anymore," Star hugged her legs to her chest and rested her head on them.
"Do you want to talk about it or just watch TV and maybe talk about it later?" asked Tom.
"TV please," Star tilted and fell against the back of the couch.
"I would turn it to your favorite station but it's stuck on my moms cooking channel," Tom continued hitting the remote against his hand.
"HE LOVES COOKING!" Star sobbed grabbing a throw pillow and crying into it.
"It's okay look," Tom got up and walked to the TV, "I'm changing the channel to something with cute animals, see, new born kittens!" Star stared at the screen sadly, "Wait here." Star sat sniffling waiting for Tom who came back with tissues and a blanket which he wrapped around her. "Do you still not want to talk?" Tom began wiping Star's tears away with the tissues as he knelt in front of where she sat on the couch. Star opened her mouth to talk but ended up letting out another sob and falling into Tom's arms. "Shhh, it's okay, everything is going to be okay."
"But it's not going to be okay, nothing is ever going to be okay," Star cried into Tom's shoulder.
"Come on Sunshine, you know you don't believe that, you may feel like that now but it won't last long, there's always a rainbow after a storm," Tom rubbed circles on Star's back.
"You're just repeating things you've heard me say," Star stopped crying enough to sit up.
"Because you're really smart and you know exactly how to cheer yourself up," Tom sighed, "You're talking about Marco's girlfriend aren't you?"
"How did you know?" Star took a tissue and blew her nose.
"Didn't he tell you I made that thing grow out of his neck?" Tom smiled nervously as Star glared at him then sighed, "Star, I'm not saying this as your creepy ex that will never be over you, I know that's what I am but I'm also someone who loves and wants what is best for you, as some one who cares about you if Marco chose Jackie over you it isn't because she's better than you, it's because you are both different and he just picked her, maybe he sees how amazing you are an maybe he doesn't but it doesn't matter if he does or if I do or if the entire population of Mooni sees how amazing you are, you know how amazing you are and you need to do your job and become the best Princess and future Queen you can be, do you know how wonderful you are?"
"I guess? I don't really know, I've never done anything that important," Star shrugged.
"What makes you say that?" Tom took Star's hand, "Because you changed me, you showed me that being angry all the time isn't good, before we broke up I wanted to be a better person for you, but now I see that I have to try to become the best person I can be even if you don't ever want to be with me again, you show people the good inside them Star, this isn't about Marco, this it about you and you being happy."
"How can I be a Queen if I can't even handle one person not liking me?" Star reached up and started messing with Tom's hair.
"Because that person happened to be someone you cared for and you thought cared for you, everything is going to be okay Starlight, you light up my life," Tom pulled Star into a hug.
"Why aren't you mad right now?" asked Star.
"Star, I'm furious, for someone who claims to be your best friend not to notice how much they are hurting you, especially someone as sweet and selfless as you, if it would help I would strangle Marco, bury him alive, and dance on his grave but it won't make you feel better so it's not worth getting mad about," Tom brushed Star's bangs back, " The only thing that matters right now is watching small cats with you until you are ready to go home, or until Pony Head comes to take you partying."
"You're a good guy Tom," Star smiled.
Eventually Star fell asleep and Tom carried her to the elevator to her room and put her in her bed then walked to Marco's room and knocked on the door. Suddenly the bathroom door opened behind him, "Tom? What are you doing in my house?"
"Star and I were hanging out and I brought her home, I was going to tell you she was home so you wouldn't worry," Tom explained.
"I honestly didn't notice she was gone, I've been out with Jackie all day and just got home a few minutes ago," Marco shrugged.
"There's alot you don't notice," Tom mumbled before stating, "Just keep an eye on her, I'll see you around, night."
The next day a servant came to Tom, "Master Tom, you received a note." The piece of paper just said:
Thank You
-Star
P.S. I appreciate you walking across the living room to change the TV channel for me, I know how much you hate doing that.
"And this came with it," the servant handed Tom a pack of batteries making him smile.
If you have ever read anything I have ever written in my life and you thought I wasn't going to use the word 'suddenly' then you were wrong and to be honest I didn't plan on using it, it just happens.
I hope you enjoyed or not leave me your thoughts in a review, I've only been in this fandom for literally 3 days and have no idea what I am doing.
