Enjoy the next chapter.
Star and her mother walked out of the house and over to the SUV and saw Marco stepping out of the house across the street and began running down the street, "That boy," Moon scuffed and shook her head before looking at her daughter, "Star, your father and I want you to stay way from that hooligan and-"
"I know, mother, and you have nothing to worry about. I will stay away from him," Moon hummed and nodded before the two of them climbed into the vehicle.
Marco walked through the gates of the school and looked around with narrowed eyes as other students glared daggers at him. He continued to walk towards the school when a familiar black SUV pulled into the parking lot beside the school, "No, no, no!" his eyes widened when he saw Moon and Star climbing out of the vehicle, "Fucking hell!" everyone looked at him as he glared at the two, "So not only are we neighbors, but she's going to go here too!" Moon narrowed her eyes as Star frowned before Marco turned and walked into the school in anger.
Moon and Star stood in the principal's office as the principal looked over Star's transcript. Looking up, the short, round man sighed and slightly smiled, "Well Miss Butterfly, I don't see any problems in your grades. Welcome to Echo Creek Academy,"
"Thank you, Principal Skeeves," Star faintly smiled.
Moon smiled at her daughter before looking back at the man in front of them, "I would like her to have someone show her around for the remainder of the week." The principal looked up in confusion as Moon shook her head, "Our family has just moved into town and I know that there is at least one troublemaker in your school and I would like for her to have a guide," the principal hummed and nodded before picking up the phone and dialed a number.
While the principal talked, Moon looked at Star and slightly frowned, "Star, I have to get to work, but your father and I will see you when you get home,"
"Okay mother. Have a good day," Moon slightly smiled and nodded before she turned and waked out of the office.
The students sat at their desks when the teacher looked up and hissed, "Diaz!" everyone looked to the back of the class and Marco narrowed his eyes at the middle-aged woman, "Go to the principal's office,"
"Go to the…are you out of your fucking mind, you old bat? I didn't do a damn thing today and-"
"Calling the teacher an old bat and that little show in the courtyard this morning," a dark-skinned teen with glasses spoke and Marco looked at him, a look of hatred crossing his face, "I was just-"
"Asking to get your ass kicked?" Marco stood up and cracked his knuckles, "Remember how I nearly sent you to the hospital last year, Alfonzo? Do you remember that, you four-eyed freak?"
"Enough!" the teacher snapped and everyone looked up, "Diaz, to the principal's office, now!" Marco growled as he turned and walked out of the classroom and slammed the door shut in anger.
Star stood in the principal's office in confusion before the door opened and she looked back, only to be surprised when she saw Marco stepping into the office. Marco ignored the blonde girl and walked over to the principal and slammed his hands on the surface of the desk, "What do you want? I've done nothing wrong and-"
"A guilty conscious?" the short man leaned back in his chair and crossed his arms, "You're not here because of something you've done, but something you'll be doing," Marco arched a brow as the principal gestured to Star, "Now, this is our new student, St-"
"We know each other," Marco looked over his shoulder and narrowed his eyes as he hissed through his teeth, "We're neighbors, but why in the hell are you introducing us? Her parents want me to stay as far away from her as possible and you know what, this might be the only time I listen to someone. She seems to be too far of a goody two-shoes and people like that make me physically ill," he turned and began walking away, "Welcome to the jungle, baby,"
"If you refuse to show her around our fine school, I'll be forced to give you detention," Marco smirked and began laughing, "And what's so funny?"
Marco looked back and shook his head, "Detention? That's the best you can come up with. Not really a threat if you think about it," Marco stretched before turning and began walking towards the door again, "Tell you want, when you learn how to make a threat, give me a call, if all you can do are empty threats, call someone else,"
Reaching for the knob, Skeeves spoke once again, "I'll tell you what, Mr. Diaz, if you show our new student around for the rest of the week, I'll expunge your suspensions from your record," Marco stopped and looked over his shoulder, "All you have to do is keep her out of trouble and those suspensions are as good as gone,'
"That won't do anything…get rid of the detentions too and then we'll talk," the air in the office grew still before Marco looked at Star and shook his head, "Well let's go blondie! I don't got all day!"
Star slightly jumped before she followed Marco out of the office and Marco slammed the door shut as Skeeves sighed and shook his head, "Maybe spending some time with someone of her nature will do the boy some good,"
The two walked down the hall, Star hanging her head as Marco shoved his hands in his pocket. Star looked up and cleared her throat, "I'm sorry to bother you, Marco, but my parents insisted that I'd stay-"
"Stay away from me, I know, but if it means pissing people off, why the hell should I care?" Marco stopped and looked back as Star frowned, "I don't care what your parents say, I don't care what that foolish old man says, and I sure as hell don't give a damn what my parents say, because at the end of the day, when you lay your head on your pillow, the only one that should matter is yourself,"
"Yourself…I'm sorry, Marco, but what are you trying to say?" Marco groaned and shook his head before he turned and began walking away, "Marco, wait up," Star followed him down the hall.
The two sat in class, other students staring at them. Some in disgust and others in shock. Star looked around and frowned before looking back at Marco, "Marco, their gazes are making me uncomfortable. Is there something on my face?"
"No, they're just surprised that I'm actually spending time with someone," Marco looked up and hissed through his teeth, "Pay attention to your work, you worthless assholes, or I'll give you a free trip to the hospital!" the gazes continued and Marco stood up in a hurry, "Are you people hard of hearing! I said turn around and pay attention to your own work!" hearing a faint chuckle, Marco looked towards an overweight teen and narrowed his eyes, "Say something, Ferguson! Go on, say something!" everyone looked at him as Ferguson stood up, "Well? What do you have to say, fat ass!"
"If you must know, we're wondering why such a cute girl is with someone like-"
"That's enough!" everyone looked up as the teacher stood up and stared at the students, "I will not be having this senseless arguing in my class. Everyone pay attention to your own work! I don't want to hear another peep from any of you!" Marco and Ferguson sat down as everyone paid attention to their work again.
Star looked up at Marco and slightly frowned before looking down at her work and silently wrote.
Second chapter and things are going to be falling into place soon. As always enjoy everyone and please let me know what everyone thinks.
