So here's chapter 3. It took a little longer but it's still kinda bad... :/
Star ran inside Marco's bedroom and started jumping up and down. "Can we go to the beach today?" She said excitedly.
Marco peeked his head up from the newspaper. "Star, I'd walk the edge of the Earth for you."
"Ooh that sounds like f-"
"But we aren't going to do that."
"Aw... At least we're going to the beach though, I think."
"Oh yeah, we're definitely going to the beach." Marco put the newspaper down and smirked. Even though he burned easily in the sun, he was just dying to spend another day with Star. He could already picture her in a super-skimpy bikini that he would attempt to make his first move on her in.
"Soooooo hot..." He drooled.
"Star blushed knowing exactly what he meant by that. "I'll leave you to get ready now... Later!"
Star digged through her closet for the perfect swimsuit. She was never allowed to show lots of skin, especially in public. But her parents weren't there, so there was no one who could stop her from this decision.
"Ohhhh yes. This one will be perfect!" Star made a smirk and went to change.
Meanwhile, Marco had already changed and was covered head to toe in sunblock. He was downstairs packing some junk to take to the beach. He walked back upstairs to check on Star. Marco knocked on Star's door. "Hey Star, you ready?"
"Yep!" She skipped to the door and opened it. Star was wearing a cute sundress with flowers to cover her swimsuit, with a pair of glittery flipflops with bows.
"Wow you look amazing."
"I bet I look 100 times more amazing underneath all this." Star laughed.
Marco laughed along with her, thinking about what she could possibly be wearing underneath the dress. He was just dying to see that bikini...
...until Star snapped him back to reality.
"Uh Marco, you OK?" asked Star.
"Oh, yeah, of course! I packed everything we'll need for the day downstairs. Let's go!"
Beach: 2:30PM
It was warm and breezy. People of all ages were either playing in the sand (consisting of baby crabs, broken seashells, and seagull poop), swimming and boogie-boarding in the ocean, or trying to get a gorgeous summer tan.
Marco found a nice spot to put all their stuff, away from everybody else. "This spot should do it for the day."
"Why are we so far away from everyone?" Star questioned.
"Because I don't want any other guys stealing you away from me..." He mumbled under his breath.
Star rolled her eyes and smiled. "And why would you think that?"
"Uhhhh..." Marco responded.
"Wow it's getting really hot out here Marco, don't you think?" Star lifted up her dress, pulling it off to reveal a glittery turquoise-colored bikini. The top was similar to the idea of a push-up bra, and it had a glitter heart in the center, and the bottoms had one glitter heart on each side.
Marco just stood there staring at her, like one of those creepy mannequins you find at the mall.
"Well it sure is now..." He took his shirt off and threw it over his head to cover his cherry red face.
Star quietly tip-toed up to Marco and ripped the shirt off his face. "So do ya care to take a dip?" She said excitedly.
"Um- Uh-"
"Great, let's go!" Star grabbed Marco by the wrist and started running towards the water. Marco fell due to Star's fast running, which made Star tumble on her butt as well.
Marco was laying face first in the sand. "Owww." He rolled around to get his face out of the sand.
"Sorry Marco." Star stood up and held out both her hands, helping him up. She then ran into the water with Marco slowly following her.
"Hey, why so slow? You scared of a shark or something? Or is it me that you're scared of."
Star ran up to Marco and gave him a real big splash, causing him to be soaked head to toe.
"HEY!" He splashed her back, making her soak as well.
From that point, it turned into a splash fight, where they continued to constantly splash eachother for a half hour straight.
"Alright I'm tired now." Star plopped down into the water.
"Me too." Marco did the same.
"Let's go eat something." Star suggested.
"Good idea."
Beach: 8:00PM
After five long hours of playing in the sand, swimming, and getting pooped on in numerous places by seagulls, Star sat down on her beach towel to stare at the sunset. Marco walked over and sat next to her.
"Star."
"Yes Marco?"
Marco wrapped his arm around Star. "Did I ever tell you you're beautiful?"
Star blushed and snuggled in closer to him. "No but I bet you were thinking it. She smiled.
"Star..."
"Yes Marco?"
"How would you react if I asked you to be my girlfriend?" He snuggled in even closer.
Star froze for a minute and re-thought everything that was going on. Did Marco really just ask her to be his girlfriend? Was she dreaming?
She leaned her head on his shoulder. "I'd say yes and be the happiest girl in all 837 dimensions." Star then got up and wrapped both her arms around Marco, with Marco doing the same.
"I love you Star." The two both leaned in to eachother until their foreheads were touching.
"I love you too Marco." Star smiled.
Their lips were to the point where they were almost touching, until the two heard the voices of two familiar people.
"Marco, Star! There you guys are!" Mrs. Diaz ran up to them. "We were so worried you guys were supposed to be home two hours ago for dinner!"
"MOM?!"
"We were also listening to your entire conversation!" Mr. Diaz added.
"DAD?!"
As Marco slowly got more and more annoyed, he crossed his arms and turned away from his parents. "Well I guess we can go home now!" He said annoyingly.
Marco picked up his hoodie from the pile of clothes on the ground. He put it on, zipped it all the way to the top, put the hood over his head, and pulled the strings tightly to cover his entire face. He then walked in the direction of the parking lot, with his parents and Star following him.
Everyone silently got into the car. Star and Marco both shared the back seat. Star snuggled closer to Marco and whispered "I'm sorry Marco."
He whispered to her back. "It's not your fault, as you saw many times before, my parents can be quite embarrassing."
After that, the car ride home was silent, so silent you can hear the crickets chirping outside.
...and that's all for chapter 3! It's still kinda a mystery what I'll be writing about in chapter 4 but I'm hoping it won't take as long as this chapter did.
