Author's Notes: Hey guys! Well here's the next part of this short story. Enjoy!


"WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT STAR?!" Marco shouted pacing around the living room. "I know for a fact you don't like me that way and now everyone thinks we're dating!"

Star bit her wand nervously and shuffled her feet. She felt bad about putting Marco in this situation.

"Why did you do that?!" he asked turning to her expecting an answer.

She sighed. "Ok look, listen Marco. I'm sorry for doing all that but you got to help me! I know for sure if I do this, Oskar will finally realize how much he likes me!"

Marco groaned in annoyance. "Star this is crazy! Why do you even care so much? You barely even know anything about him besides the fact he plays the keytar!"

She got a starry look in her eyes and put on a love struck smile. "He's too cute," she sighed dreamily.

"Ugh!" Marco said throwing his hands in the air. "Star I can't do this! It's never even going to work!"

Star looked at him pleadingly. "Of course it will Marco! I just need you to play along! C'mon, just for a little bit!"

Marco humphed and turned away from her, crossing his arms. "Nopppeee. Not happening."

Star frowned. "Pleasseeee?" she pleaded giving Marco her signature puppy dog look.

Marco turned his head slightly to see Star's face. He had to admit, he felt very tempted at that moment to go through with it seeing how cute she looked doing that face but he stood firm and turned his head away.

"Forget it Star. That's not going to work this time," he said firmly holding to his resolve.

Star's face turned absolutely downcast and teared up a little. "Fine," she said, defeated. "It's not like I expected you to help. I mean, who would want to date me?" she said, her voice sounding like she was choking on a few tears.

Marco whipped his body around at the sound of her sad voice. He didn't like seeing her sad.

"No wait Star, that's not what I meant!" he yelled frantically trying to get the girl to lighten up.

She sniffled and looked up hopefully at him. "Then you'll help me?"

Marco sighed. "Star, you know this is wr-"

She interrupted his sentence by covering her eyes and bawling loudly as she turned away from him. "O-ok, I-I'll j-just go t-to my room and c-c-CRY!" she blubbered as she began to walk towards the stairs.

Marco started sweating nervously. OH NO he thought. SHE'S CRYING!

Seeing her cry like that reminded him of what his mother said to him once.

*Flashback*

"Listen Marco," Mrs. Diaz said softly looking at little 4 year old Marco. "You should never EVER make a girl upset ok?"

Little Marco smiled happily nodding his head up and down.

Suddenly, Mr. Diaz came running down the stairs waving his arms in joy.

"Honey! Honey! It took me a while, but I finally changed the little guy's name to 'El Chupacabra!'" he said proudly. "Think of how intimidating he'll be when someone calls his name!"

Mrs. Diaz's eye twitched. She kept her smile that she normally wore on her face as she turned to look at her husband. "Oh really now?" she said calmly. "Tell me all about it," she gestured to the kitchen.

Mr. Diaz puffed his chest out with pride and smugly walked into the kitchen.

"Stay right here honey, mommy will be back soon," Mrs. Diaz assured her son who curiously nodded at her as she went into the kitchen.

Suddenly, little Marco heard screams of fear and loud shouting coming from the kitchen. He heard his father beg his wife to not do anything too drastic as he heard his footsteps approach the kitchen exit. Mr. Diaz tried to make a break for it by sprinting out of the kitchen, only for him to trip and his wife to catch him by the legs.

"NOOOOOOO!" Mr. Diaz screamed clawing the floor as he was slowly being dragged by his wife back into the kitchen.

After a few moments, Mr. Diaz came out of the kitchen looking like he had just came home from a war. "Mi hijo," he said weakly looking own towards little Marco. "Never ever upset a girl," he said as he limped towards his computer upstairs to change Marco's name back.

Little Marco gulped and since then, he had remembered this important lesson.

*End of Flashback*

Marco's eyes widened. He rushed over to Star and put a hand on her shoulder. She stopped moving but refused to look at him, her face buried in her hands with her back facing him.

"Ok ok Star I'll do it! Just please don't cry!" he begged fearfully.

All of a sudden. she turned around to face him with a wide grin and hands extended towards him. She didn't even look like she had been crying at all.

"Really?! Thanks Marco!" she exclaimed. "HUGS!" she threw her arms around him and squeezed the living daylights out of him.

Marco tried to be annoyed, but couldn't help but feel a small grin form on his face.

He pulled away from the hug and looked at Star.

"The things I do for you," he rolled his eyes with a smile apparent on his face. Star giggled in response.

"So what do we do now?" he asked her.

"Wellllll..." she reached into her star shaped purse and pulled out a map.

"Tomorrow, Oskar and Jade are supposed to be on a date," she explained. "I already mapped out all the spots he's going to take her to. All we have to do is show up and act all cute."

"Er... Star?" Marco said. "That's... kind of creepy that you even know where they're going."

"Psh, nonsense! It's perfectly normal!" she said waving it off. "I do it all the time!"

Marco looked at her weirdly before shaking his head. He decided to ignore that fact.

"Well then Ms. Butterfly," he said jokingly giving her a little bow. "Would you be so kind as to go on a date with me tomorrow?"

She giggled at his silly antics. "it would be my pleasure, Sir Marco," she said as she took his hand in hers. She had a feeling tomorrow was going to be a great day.
