They talked well into 3 am Marco asked all the questions he wanted to such as 'Why are you acting like this?' and 'Why are you with him if he just gets you in trouble?' she gave answers to all some seemed good others seemed like lies. After the talk they went to bed, Marco knew that she wasn't gonna really change, he knew half of the things Star told him were lies.
Marco woke up the next morning and, of course, Star was gone. Marco let out an annoyed sigh "I knew it..." he said as went into the kitchen to get something to eat. He went on his phone to see he got a text from Ferguson.
Hey
Hey
Did you talk to star
Yes
How did it go
0 effect half of the things she told me were lies
Marco put down the phone and laid his down in frustration, recently the anger he gets when he see's Star and Oskar has gotten worse, his friends would joke around and said it was jealousy which he'd blush and tell them to be quiet. 'I'm not jealous... I don't see Star that way... do I?' he could feel a blush appear on his face. He quickly tried to focus on something else, he went to the living room and turned on the TV after an hour he heard the door open. He looked to see Star and the same group he saw a few days ago and Oskar was next to her with his arm around her, once again causing his blood to boil, he saw a little curve in Oskar's nose he remembered how he punched Oskar in the face so he must have broken his nose. "Hey Marco." He heard Star say, this surprised him a little bit. Star, Oskar and the rest sat down. "Uhh... Hey..." Marco said cautiously. "I can see he's kinda weirded out..." One boy said to Star. "Marco look I know we haven't talked in forever so I thought maybe you would hang out with us for a while." Marco gave Star a look that showed heavy distrust, but he went along with it. "Okay..." Star smiled which ended up making Marco smile, he couldn't help it. Well you know Oskar..." And there goes his smile. Star pointed to the two boys "That's James and Zack." and then she pointed to the girl. "And that's Mary." Marco waved at them still uneasy.
One of the boys, who's name Marco now know's is James, pulled out a backpack full of some drinks. 'ARE YOU SERIOUS!?' Marco screamed in his brain. Everyone grabbed one, except Marco, Zack looked at him. "You want one dude?" He held out a can to Marco. "Uuuuh... No thanks..." "Oh come on Marco! Try one they taste amazing." Star spoke up. He felt his stomach drop, he nervously grabbed the can. His brain was screaming at him, 'DON'T YOU DARE MARCO DIAZ!' 'DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!' Marco was about to take a gulp but then his instincts took over, next thing he knew he had thrown the can as hard as he could in a random direction.
SMASH!
He looked up to see that the can had gone through the window. "Marco! What the hell!" Star shouted in surprise. "Babe I thought you said this guy was cool..." After a few seconds he heard Star say "Yeah maybe I was wrong..." Marco felt his heart shatter the feeling of sadness was immediately overpowered by anger he quickly sat up and walked out of the house slamming the door behind him.
