Spoiler alert: All you Starco shippers are gonna like this chapter, even though my writing kinda sucks :/
Star gently tip-toed down the hallway to avoid waking Mr. and Mrs. Diaz and knocked on Marco's bedroom door.
Marco opened the door. "Where were you all this time?" He was worried that she could've been in another one of Ludo's crazy battles, kinda feeling bad that he wasn't there to help and protect her.
"The park. Bawling my eyes out. Regretting everything that's happened today."
Marco let Star in, shut the door, and sat on the edge of his bed, still in his fancy clothes from earlier that night.
"Why did you pretend to be Jackie just to go on a date with me..."
Star sat down next to him. "I guess I was just jealous that you liked her... Because I love you. More than friends. So I shapeshifted into Jackie to go on a date with you because I thought that was the only way I could tell you how I felt."
"But I guess that didn't work..." Star frowned.
Marco stood there speechless, while Star went looking away in embarrassment.
He put his hand on her shoulder. "Is all this true Star?"
"Yes Marco." She still had her back towards him. "And I'm sorry." Star managed to let out a few more tears.
"Please don't cry. It's ok, I'm not mad at you." Star may sometimes do some of the stupidest, most unnecessary things with her magical abilities, but she always deserves to be forgiven. After all, she is human just like everyone else here on Earth, despite being a princess with magic.
Star turned back around. "I just didn't want to make you feel like this! I love you too much to see you upset!"
"Me too. And I would do anything to see that gorgeous smile on your face." Marco hugged his best friend, while using his sleeve to remove the makeup that was running down past her cheeks.
Star hugged him for a really long time. Neither one of them cared to notice that they were still dressed up from when they went out earlier that night. "I don't ever wanna let go."
"You won't have to, princess. But there's something I have to show you." He broke the hug and wiped all the tears off her face with his sleeve. "Follow me." He smiled.
Marco got up off his bed and grabbed Star's hand. They ran down the stairs together.
"Now I want you to close your eyes." They stood right in front of the back door about to walk outside.
"Ok." Star shut her eyes and put her free hand over them.
"Alright Star. I hope you like this. He took a deep breath and opened the back door. Both of them stepped outside. "You can open your eyes now."
She opened her eyes and gasped. "OH MY GOSH MARCO!"
The whole backyard was lit up with what looked to be Christmas lights, even though it was May. There was also a fancy table set up with two chairs, one on each side. On the table were a bouquet of flowers, candles, a big fancy chocolate cake, and a huge bottle of soda.
"It's not too late to make this the best night ever. With the best girl ever of course. Tonight's our night." Marco watched as Star was almost in tears again.
"Awwww!" They each walked to the table and sat down across from eachother.
"This was supposed to be for 'Jackie' after our dinner, but I realized you deserve it more. Star, you care about me and you're always by my side. You made my life so much more exciting, and well, I've been going after the wrong girl this whole time. Jackie isn't the girl of my dreams, Star. It's you. You're that girl that can always put a smile on my face, even when I'm not in the best of moods. You helped me get rid of my 'Safe Kid' image at school with your awesome fighting skills. And most importantly, I'm glad to call you my best friend... And I wanna take it a step further."
He picked up the bouquet of flowers and held them out in front of him. "Star Butterfly, will you be my girlfriend?"
Star sat there with her jaw dropped. Her entire face turned red from blushing so hard. She took the flowers, but there was still no response.
"Star? Is everything OK?" Marco began to look worried.
"Marco... Of course I'll be your girlfriend. She smiled and sniffed the roses.
"Sooo... Would you like some cake, new girlfriend?"
"Ohhhh. You better believe I'd like some cake, new boyfriend." She giggled.
Marco cut a piece of cake for Star and handed it to her, then he cut a piece for himself.
"Why thank you, honey," Star took a bite of her cake.
"You're welcome, sweetheart." He smiled as he watched the princess eat her cake. He couldn't take his eyes off her. He began to examine her beautiful face. Then her dress. It was super glittery and it fit her rather tightly exposing her small breasts even more than any other outfit he has ever seen her in. However, he thought it was SUPER attractive. Not only that, everything about her was just. Amazing.
Star looked up at him. "Why are you staring at me?" Her mouth was full with cake and her whole face turned red blushing.
"You're beautiful, that's why." Marco started nibbling at his cake.
"Thank you." That beautiful smile that could just light up anyone's day (or night) appeared on her face. "I'm done with my cake."
"Me too." The both of them got up and sat on a blanket that was on the ground under a tree. Marco opened the bottle of soda and started drinking out of it.
"Hey, you plan on sharing that?" Star scooched closer to him.
"Of course." Marco held out the soda bottle and Star grabbed it, drinking out of it as well.
"That was good." Star handed it back to Marco who closed it up and put it aside.
Star lied down on the ground and looked up at the sky. "Marco, you made this the best night of my life. Thank you so much." She leaned over and started to cuddle with him.
"Anything for you, my angel." Marco pushed a large glob of hair out of Star's face. "You're so beautiful."
Star started to blush. "So are you." She giggled.
"Oh shut up, princess!" Marco pushed her playfully.
"You better believe I am a princess!" Star pushed him back.
"You're my princess." Marco wrapped his arms around her waist. "I love you Star."
Star wrapped her arms around him also. "I love you Marco."
They both leaned in close to eachother. Faces not even inches apart. Lips almost touching. Both of them closed their eyes as their lips finally met one another. They embraced eachother like they were the only two people in the world.
About a minute later, they both pulled away for air, still gazing into eachother's eyes.
"Theres no girl that could possibly be any more beautiful than you, Star." Marco pulled the princess in for another kiss, making her respond with a soft moan as he roughly pressed his lips against hers.
"Don't you dare let go!" Star managed to get those few words out in between kisses.
They each pulled away for air again, grasping eachother tightly. "I'm never letting go." Marco smiled.
I'm debating on whether or not I should write another chapter for this story. I will be writing several other fanfics for this show though!
