Chapter 8: Fist vs Board
(Disclaimer! I own…. Oh you get the point)
15 minutes later…..
Marco and Star were eating some garlic bread.
"I thought the apron was just for show," said Star, "This food is really good, especially the garlic bread."
"Thanks," said Marco, "Its one of my favorite foods."
"I can see that," said Star as she laughed.
"I could eat it for every meal," said Marco.
"Well I'd be careful if I were you," said Star, "You could get fat."
"Why?" asked Marco, "Bread's good for you."
"Bread makes you fat," said Star.
"Bread makes you fat?!" asked Marco surprised.
30 minutes later
"The group and I are actually working on a song for you," said Marco.
"You are?" asked Star.
"Yeah the bassline goes like this," he said.
He played a little bit and started singing.
"Mi estrella, mi bonita estrella, en mi mente, mi estrella."
"Can't wait to hear when its finished," said Star.
"Finished?" asked Marco.
45 minutes later
They were kissing on the bed.
"Wow Marco, your hair is getting long," she said.
"OH man I need a haircut don't I?" asked Marco.
"What?" asked Star.
"I just had a bad haircut before my big breakup, but it was so long ago," said Marco.
(Marco is aware that his haircut was 451 days ago, and 3 hrs before his big breakup. He largely blames it on the haircut and has been cutting his own hair since then)
"It sounds like a bad time," said Star.
"Not really," said Marco.
(It was)
"It was a mutual thing," he continued.
(It wasn't)
"I mean she told me it was mutual," said Marco.
(She dumped him. It was brutal!)
"What was her name?" asked Star.
"Her name was Jackie when I knew her," said Marco, "But she stopped liking that name, then me."
"Well I think your hair is cute," said Star, "I like it long."
"But it'd be cuter short wouldn't it?" asked Marco as he put on a hat.
"Why are you wearing that hat?" asked Star.
"I thought we could go for a walk," he said.
60 minutes later….
"So is there a reason why we're out here walking other than to hide your hair?" asked Star.
"Just like me some walking," said Marco, "Its just so cool being around you."
"Y'know your apartment isn't so bad," said Star, "But it could use some more things to make it girlfriendly."
"I can't disagree with you there," said Marco.
"Its kinda funny, I haven't had this much fun with a guy since my other exes," said Star.
"That's kinda sad," said Marco.
"Oh turns out your sister works at some kind of coffee shop," said Star.
"That explains why you tasted like coffee," said Marco as he smiled.
"Do you not drink coffee?" asked Star.
"Sometimes I do but its occasional," said Marco, "Oh we're here!"
They were at a giant castle stage.
"They're making a movie out here," said Marco.
Ed was there waiting for the guy he was stalking.
"You find the guy you were stalking?" asked Star.
"About to see him now," said Ed, "Justin Sheldon."
"Oh…." Said Star a little surprised.
"Oh?" asked Marco.
Out of a trailer came the famous actor Justin Sheldon.
"He's so damn hot," said Ed.
"That guy's my second Ex," said Star.
"Alright," said the director, "Take one!"
"The only thing keeping me and her apart are the two minutes it'll take to kick your ass," said Justin.
"This guy was a total brat," said Star, "We had drama… actually math, but there was a lot of drama."
"How could he be a total brat?" asked Marco, "Look at him he's so buff."
"Back then he was a nerd and had snot in his nose," said Star.
"HEY!" said Justin, "I'm talking to you Marco Diaz!"
"He's famous and he talked to me," said Marco.
"The only thing keeping me and her apart are the two minutes it'll take to kick your ass," said Justin.
"This may be a bad time but could…." Said Marco before he got punched.
"Could I have your autograph please?" asked Marco.
Justin picked him up and threw him at the castle.
"Hey Star," said Justin, "He seems nice."
Marco got back up.
"Face it Diaz," said Justin, "You have no chance against an A-lister."
He punched him again.
"Damn that felt good," he said.
"Hey, I'm not done here!" said Marco as he turned him around.
It was a stunt double.
"What can I say?" asked Justin, "My stunt team is the greatest thing I have."
They all ganged up on him.
Marco Diaz Vs Justin Sheldon (And stunt Team)
He started fighting them all off as the real Justin walked away.
"I'm gonna get some food, y'all want anything?" said Justin.
"No thanks," they all said.
He was making a call for donuts and such.
"Yo Justin!" said Marco, "You're needed on set!"
"Well, that was fast," said Justin, "Let's go!"
He charged at him and they did a flying kick.
Justin landed his kick.
Marco quickly got back up.
"Prepare for the wrath of the league of evil exes," said Justin.
"League of evil exes?" asked Marco, "Is that the thing that the other guy was talking about?"
"Don't tell me that loser Emmitt introduced it," said Justin, "Basically we're a group of exes that keep any other guy from dating Star Butterfly etc. etc."
"Ok…." Said Marco.
"C'mon, let's grab some coffee," said Justin as he lended a hand.
As soon as he grabbed it, Justin punched him down again.
Marco saw some rails and came up with an idea.
"So you're a good actor, but are you a good skateboarder?"
"I'm more than pretty good," said Justin, "I got my own skate company."
"Then can you do the thing with the rails?" asked Marco.
"Its called grinding, and yeah," said Justin, "Wanna see?"
Marco nodded.
"Someone get my board," said Justin.
Ed grabbed it for him.
"Big fan," he said.
"Why wouldn't you be," said Justin.
He started grinding on the rails.
"Wow," said Marco.
HE was starting to go faster than usual.
"Wow," said Ed.
Pretty soon he was near the edge at 309 kph and then exploded.
Some coins appeared.
"Wow, he really bailed," said Marco, "Damn I should've gotten his autograph."
"You think," said Ed.
"C'mon Marco," said Star, "Let's get outta here."
She took his hand and they went back to his apartment.
"How does she do that?" asked Ed.
Someone was secretly watching him.
"He seems stronger than we anticipated," he said, "I'll make sure the rest of the league has what they need to annihilate him."
