Chapter One.
The next morning Star never left her room. Marco tried everything, from trying to get her to take him on some adventure to coaxing her out with nachos. He eventually looked down at the scissors in his pocket and realized that there is something that he could do. But without the mirror he couldn't do it without getting Star in trouble. So he just sat there in his room, and started planning. He thought of so many plans over the next few days that his room looked like a conspiracy theorist lived there. That's when Star came in.
"Woah!" surprise, confusion, and joy overswept her in a flurry of , who had been working almost non-stop was passed out with his hair in a complete mess and was half falling off of his desk which he was using as an impromptu bed, for some reason.
He stirred and started murmuring, "Gotta… gotta help… is… my fault?"
Star was touched by his obvious concern but was more worried about his guilt.
"Why would he be guilty, he didn't do anything." Obvious care was felt from Star and so, using her wand, put Marco in his bed. That was when she got a good look at his room. Strings drew from pin to pin, from the wall to the ceiling, even the floor. She was left in wonderment, he covered so many points, but there were several that he didn't connect, Ludo's hideout.
"Ugh, Star? What are you doing?" Marco, confused, understandably, and just plain groggy.
"Oh nothing, just uhhhhh… felt like coming out of my room for once in awhile."
"I guess you've finally decided to come out? I mean you didn't even come out for my nachos."
"I figure it's understandable as to why I didn't want to leave." What could have been mistaken as being sad was more of a subtle joy as to his concern. She may have recently seen him with Jackie, but she was curious about one thing that seemed off about Marco, "Have you … left, like, since the dance?"
Snapping back to reality (seeing as he had just dozed off again) He responded with a curt "Wha, huh? Oh, no… I just saw how upset you were with Glossaryck and your entire family history being gone and just, figured I needed to help. I mean you are my friend."
Star, embarrassed, and obviously blushing in a major way, quickly turned her head away.
"Star Butterfly don't just panic and turn away silent. Clear your face and talk to him!"
"Yeah Marco, I'm glad you're here. So, what have you got planned?" Luckily Star partially knew how to suppress emotions thanks to princess training back on Mewni.
A/N: I honestly didn't expect this story to blow up so quickly, glad to see people are enjoying my story. I honestly have no idea as to how long this story will be. And that is all I have to say regarding that. This was originally going to be a one-off that was going to just satisfy my personal urge to write. So I'm really happy to see people enjoying my first published and maintained story.
