Star: yea but, Marco and his family have taken such good care of me while they have been away.

Janna: why are we not in your room in Marco's house I want to try and read Marco diary.

Star: his parents stepped out, so I thought we could just hang here.

Janna: Are you Sad?

Star: why would I be?

Janna: Because right now Marco is making his move on Jackie.

Star: why would I be upset about that?

Janna: I see the way you look at him, plus that incident a couple of month's back where you kept calling him "My Marco".

Star: That was different, I cant tell you how but those feelings past.

Janna: I heard you kissed him.

(Star Blushes)

Star: new Topic

Janna: Ok what was that about with Marco's injuries.

Star: Tom started to hurt Marco when, when he would not tell Tom, Marco and I were dating like he thought. I saw his injuries when we went back to his house.

Janna: Oh did you play nurse Star for him.

Star: Janna Please just drop it, can we do something else.

Janna Ok star, do you want to watch a movie while we wait for Marco?

(Jackie reads Marco's note)

Jackie: I'm sorry Marco. I don't feel the same way. I know you have had this crush on me I have always known, but I just don't feel the same way. I think there is someone else for you; it's just not me.

(Marco walks into his room and lies down in his bed)

Janna: so Star what are you going to do if Marco and Jackie start dating

Star: why is this coming up again.

Janna: I'm just asking, you're his best friend, he might not have time for you if he starts dating Jackie
