Buns, a prompt by MasterDuelistMichael (I switched it up a little from your original prompt because wedding scenes are not my thing lol. Hope you don't mind!)

I swear I update this and then I blink and a month has passed. I'm so sorry this hasn't been updated in so long; I was travelling and all that nonsense, but that's no excuse.

MaFx98: Don't worry about it! I'm glad you will continue to review!

AnimalKrazed: That's a very vague prompt lol but I'll see if I can come up with something.

EVAunit42: I have your prompt in the works, but since it's going to be revolving around a play I want to research it a little more and pick something fun. It'll be up asap.

Queen Got Swag: Omg I love this. I'll see what I got, but I might end up using a different song for comical purposes haha. Also your profile pic is my child. I love him.

I don't own Star vs. the Forces of Evil.


GENERAL POV


Marco Ubaldo Diaz was the most oblivious man in the entire world, and it was starting to get on Star's absolute last nerve.

Seriously, she put rolls in the oven, she was constantly showing him baby toys, she left a can of Prego spaghetti sauce directly next to her side of the bed, asked him for pickles and peanut butter, and Marco still had no idea that Star was almost a month into her pregnancy.

She didn't want to come right out and tell him; she had heard earth pregnancies were more fun to announce if you did it in a creative way. Of course, it would be even more fun if Marco could figure it out, but she had been trying for almost two weeks, since she had found out, and nothing had come from it.

Star sighed and leaned against the stair railing, crossing her arms over her stomach and humming a lullaby absentmindedly while Marco walked down the stairs, dressed in his karategi and tying his black belt around his waist.

"Heading out?" Star asked, reaching out and tugging at his sleeve to untwist it.

Marco smiled and leaned over, kissing Star on the top of the head. "Yup. I'm scheduled to help Maisie get her yellow belt today. She's really excited."

"I'll bet," Star chuckled. "Listen, Marco, before you leave, I-"

A crashing sound came from outside and, with a quick look at one another, the couple darted to the backyard, Star grabbing her wand from the kitchen counter on the way.

Monster attacks didn't happen much anymore for the two of them; after Buff Frog had sided with them in more than a couple of fights, the monsters had slowly switched sides and stopped fighting.

Every now and then, however, a new monster who didn't know of the alliance would try and attack Star, knowing that if they took out the future queen of Mewni they would pretty much decimate the kingdom. Star's father was nearing the age of his retirement from the throne, and was now merely waiting for Star to hit the age of 30 before he turned it over to her.

The monster in the yard now was massive, covered in spines and a bright aqua color that would have been gorgeous had the thing not been snarling at them and swinging clawed hands in their direction.

Marco instantly leapt into the air, delivering a swift kick to the monster's face and sending it reeling a few feet.

Normally Star would have joined right in. But this was the first monster that had fought them since she had discovered she was pregnant, and now Star bent a little at the waist and started firing off various attacks from her wand.

For a few moments it seemed they were winning; the monster clearly didn't expect a fight from the two of them, and it faltered more than once.

Star had to keep moving to prevent herself from getting hit, and eventually her steps took her into the still dewy grass, her bare feet sinking into the soft dirt and making her stance unstable.

The monster managed one good hit that slammed Star in the face and sent her crashing back into the fence that encircled the yard. She instinctively dropped the wand on the way to the ground and curled her arms around her stomach as a means of protection.

Her wand was out of reach when she looked up, and the monster loomed over her. The woman flinched and scurried back until her shoulders hit the fence.

Marco had hit the porch several feet away and was now rubbing his head wearily. The monster growled in Star's face and she was mortified when a whimper spilled from her lips; she wasn't scared of the monster at all. She was scared it would hurt her or her slowly developing baby.

The whimper made Marco look up in an instant though, and his eyes locked with Star's across the yard. His gaze moved over her at lightning speed, at the way she cradled her stomach, how she was hunched over, and his jaw line tightened.

With a scream, he was hurtling over the porch railing and full on tackling the monster to the ground, hitting with a thump and flipping over the back of the creature.

Star scrambled to her feet and grabbed at her wand as she ran for the house, darting inside and grabbing her dimensional scissors from her purse.

Back outside, she waited until Marco was in optimal kicking position before slicing open a portal, and he kicked the monster square in the face and sent it flying back through into another dimension. Star closed the portal quickly and then dropped her hands to her sides, one cradling and wand and the other holding the scissors.

"Star?"

Marco's hand settled lightly on her shoulder and he turned her around, clasping her upper arms in his hands and rubbing a gentle thumb across her skin as he studied her before pulling his wife into a crushing hug.

"Why didn't you tell me?" he murmured into her neck, stroking her hair when she clutched at his back.

"I…I wanted it to be fun. Like all the other couples do. But you didn't get any of them."

Marco pulled away and stared at her, eyebrows furrowed for a moment until realization dawned in his eyes. He promptly slammed his palm into his forehead and groaned. "Oh my god, I'm an idiot!"

Star managed a small smile and he shook his head, leaning down and pressing a firm kiss to her lips. "Next time, just smack me and tell me before we get attacked, okay?"

She giggled and buried her face in his shoulder. "Okay."
