Enjoy the next chapter.
Star and Marco stepped into the library and saw the two falling asleep at the table, "Getting tired already?" they looked up and narrowed their eyes as Marco stepped forward, "What's wrong? Didn't get a goodnight sleep last night or something?" the two groaned and Marco sighed, "You two aren't going to be able to help if you're exhausted…Estrella, is there a spare room they can sleep in during the nights?"
Daphne and Mike looked at the two undead teens and Star sighed and shook her head, "There is, but why should we give them a room?"
"Because it'll be a waste of time if we take them back down to the dungeons and then have to bring them back up tomorrow night. They won't be able to get any work done and I doubt they'll be able to help Eclipsa," Star took a deep breath before looking at the two and nodded them over before they led them out of the library.
The two Vampires led the lawyers into a fairly large room and the pair looked around, "This will be your room until after the trial," Star crossed her arms and leaned up against the wall, "There will be a guard on post during the nights when you return to make sure you don't cause any trouble and-"
"We want Sabrina here with us," Daphne demanded and glared at the two as they glared daggers in return, "We're going trough a difficult time studying the laws here and-"
"And what makes you think we'll let her have the same treatment?" Star hissed through her fangs, "Why should we do that? She has no purpose here and-" Marco placed a hand on Star's shoulder and Star looked back in confusion, "Marco?"
"Calm down, honey, we don't want to cause any trouble while those idiots from the High Commission are here, right?" Star inhaled and exhaled slowly as she nodded, "Okay…I'll go look for Sabrina…feel free to teach them a painful lesson if they try something foolish," Star looked at him with wide eyes as Marco stared at the lawyers as his eyes flashed a hellish red, "I'm going to get her and bring her here, Star is going to make sure you two stay here until the guard gets here. If you do anything stupid, Star won't hesitate to kick your asses and I promise we'll bleed you two dry in front of your daughter," the two swallowed hard and slowly nodded before Marco turned and walked out of the room.
Marco spotted Sabrina staring out the window, her head down and a frown painted across her lips, "Sabrina?" she jumped and looked back to see the Vampire stepping closer towards her, "Your parents want to speak with you,"
"Oh…okay…let's go," Sabrina stepped away from the window and over towards Marco, "Let's go." She repeated before trying to walk past Marco, only to have the undead teen stop her by standing in front of her, "Marco, my parents are waiting and-"
"They can wait a few more minutes…right now I want to ask you something," Sabrina looked up with wide eyes and Marco inhaled slowly, "When I met up with Star earlier, she seemed lost…what did you two talk about?" Sabrina frowned before hanging her head, "Sabrina? We're giving you and your parents your freedom back after this trial, and I'd like to try and patch up our ruined friendship…and I'd like to know what my wife talked to you about and why she seemed so lost."
Sabrina sighed and shook her head, "She wanted to know why I turned on you that night and she didn't want to hear it's in the past or the kindergarten excuses and so…I told her…I told her why I truly turned on you that night and…I truly regret it every day,"
"Okay? But that doesn't explain why Star seemed so lost an-"
"It…has something to do with kindergarten…or rather…before the incident," Marco arched a brow and Sabrina inhaled slowly and exhaled sharply, "We used to be close,"
"I know…we spent almost every weekend together and even after the incident, I always made sure no one took advantage of you or put you in a dangerous situation, even though you told me to leave you alone, I still felt that I should be there for you,"
"Y-yeah…I know…and before the incident…my mother would joke whenever we left or you left that you and I were going to get married…for a little kid…your first thought is that's gross," Marco frowned as Sabrina shook her head, "But…the day before kindergarten, I thought I might give the whole boyfriend-girlfriend thing a try because…you were always kind to me, you always looked out for me…I thought that maybe we could try and get closer and…the next day the incident happened and…I changed my mind but…I thought that maybe we could try and…and then you started dating Jackie and I was…jealous and then I told your…wife? I told her and she got a little angry and then she frowned before walking away."
"Wait…are you…Sabrina…I'm married, happily too…and even still…I saw you as a good friend…someone I can count on…nothing more,"
"I understand…but…what if I had helped you that night? What if instead I offered you a place to stay and kept the others from hurting you? Then what?"
"I…I don't know…and no matter how badly we want to, we can't change the past…no matter how rotten it's been," Marco reached up and rubbed the top of her head, "Don't you think I want to go back and stop myself from throwing those blocks at you that day? I do, but all we can do is move on and learn from our mistakes,"
Sabrina frowned and nodded, "I'm sorry I didn't return your feelings, and that I hurt you that day, but…I've offered you and your parents a deal, they're going to help a friend with a case and you three will either be sent back to earth or you can stay and work here in the castle and Star and I won't go after you three," Sabrina nodded again, "Now let's go…we're giving you and your parents a room while they prepare for the trial,"
"Hmm…t-thanks Marco," Marco hummed and nodded, "Marco? What if I want to stay and work here but my parents want to go back to earth?"
"If you want to stay and they want to go back then that's what's going to happen," Sabrina's eyes widened as Marco sighed and turned her back towards her, "Whatever you decide to do will be completely up to you and no one, not me, not Star, not her parents and not your parents can tell you any different. If you want to stay here then we'll find a job for you…and don't worry, I'll make sure it's nothing too dangerous," Sabrina nodded before the two of them walked down the corridor in silence.
Star and Marco roamed the castle's interior in silence. Star looked up at her husband in confusion to see and distracted gaze behind his eyes, "Marco?" Marco's head snapped as he looked down at Star, "What's wrong?"
Marco took a deep breath and frowned, "I talked to Sabrina and asked her what you talked to her about…and I told her that I was happily married to you and that I didn't return her feelings," Star's eyes widened, "And then she asked what will happen if she wanted to stay here and work and her parents wanted to go back to earth after Eclipsa's trial and I told her that that's what's going to happen and no one can tell her any different,"
"Marco? What's…what's gotten into you? Whenever you talk to a human, you usually lose your temper and threaten them if they move out of line, but right now it sounds like you and Sabrina were having a calm conversation and-"
"It might be because we were childhood friends, or it might be this whole Eclipsa thing that's got me thinking, but…I don't feel right holding this grudge against Sabrina forever if we're just going to send her and her parents back to earth…I deserved what I got the night from her…I don't know…my head hurts,"
Star sighed as she leaned up against Marco and slightly smiled, "Sometimes I think you're too good for your own good, Marco…it could be either of those things and that's fine, but it seems like you still have a grudge against the rest of the humans."
"Probably…but hey, everyone's sleeping right now so…do you want to maybe go mess with some of the guards or maybe an inmate or two?" Star smiled before stepping away from Marco and began running down the corridor and Marco chased after her, the two laughed as they did.
And another chapter done…huh…I don't know why I did it like this but…as always enjoy everyone and please let me know what you all think.
