EXTRA (but not actually part of the story)

He couldn't believe it. Not at all. Star told him how much she disliked Tom and thought them being friends would be awkward. It used to be awkward before that other ball that he didn't really care about.

He never thought they would get back together but sometimes things come unexpected. He was there, watching them flirt with each other. Moon called him over excitedly, just like how his parents asked Star to take his and Jackie's picture.

"Be good to her… Tom," River said sternly. It was obvious he wasn't very supportive of Tom (because of his dad) but he knew he was good to her before; Star broke up with him, not the other way around.

Moon, on the other hand was bouncing for some reason. Marco thought that behind that queenly experience, she was a normal-ish, jumpy mother who loved watching her daughter grow up. In reality, it was because her mother never got to see her date anyone and she never got motherly advice on boys, she felt compelled to watch over Star like a hawk to make sure she was happy at all times. Even if she already knew Tom was her daughter's former ex-boyfriend.

Marco didn't like this feeling at all. It was overpowering is rational thinking. He knew he was jealous and didn't deny it. But there was no point acting on it, because Star was happy and since she was happy, he would endure. Also, Tom was his… friend… so he could not betray him like that either. He believed he should take the role of their 'advisor' and friend.

But he really wanted to wipe off the smug smirk on Tom's demonic face.

"Geez, jealous much, Marco?" an all-too-familiar voice sarcastically called him out. He whipped his head around to see Janna, mischief maker of prestige, as she liked to call herself, drinking some juice and slowly approaching him. "If you're any more obvious, you would corrupt Star's magic wand."

"I'm not jealous," he replied, ignoring her witty comment.

"Well I am, Star has magic and a demon boyfriend," Janna explained, "That's so cool! I would be happy if my life was like that… but it's fine because I, at least, have a magic lab rat to test my stuff on."

"Really? That's animal abuse, Janna!"

"Hmm, you never outwardly spoke against it though," she replied smoothly. "Stop being so jealous, you'll make everything weird." And with that, she went to bother the couple.

"I'm not jealous," Marco huffed in an irritated tone. He stared at the couple analytically, "I'm not jealous," he repeated, to reassure himself; even though a few minutes ago, he wasn't denying that he was, in fact, jealous.
