WARNING: VERY LONG AUTHOR'S NOTE AHEAD.

I never thought I'd write an "M" rated fanfic, let alone have one be rated "M" due to sexual content...and yet...here we are.

My justification for this is as follows:

A. I am not graphically describing the actual acts. While there are descriptions of intimacy and things like undressing, the actual sex-scenes are mostly vague recaps.

B. There is a *purpose* for the sexual content. There's an actual story around it, not just porn for the sake of being...ya know, porn.

This story begins seven years after the Magic was destroyed when Star and Marco are 22 and takes place in an alternate timeline that requires a bit of explaining. The major plot events of the show (story elements about Ludo, Toffee, Heinous, Eclipsa, Mina, Moon, etc) are largely unchanged. The biggest major differences are as follows:

-Marco never found out that Star had a crush on him. Ruberiot never included that last surprise verse in his song, and Star didn't confess her feelings before returning to Mewni at the beginning of Summer.

-Jackie broke up with Marco around the same time as she did originally, but it was because she realized she wasn't straight, not because she thought Marco was in love with Star, because he wasn't. Marco returned to Mewni because he was heartbroken and just wanted to be with his best friend again.

-Star and Marco never got trapped in the Photo Booth.

-Star and Tom still broke up in "Sad Teen Hotline" for the same reason as in the show. Tom and Janna started dating after "Cleaved."

-Marco and Kelly became breakup buddies, which turned into full-on dating, and they dated all the way through the end of the show, but Kelly was sent back to her dimension when the Magic was destroyed. Marco never got to say goodbye and was devastated.

-And, because I couldn't figure out how to get around it, Star and Marco never had the Blood Moon Curse put on them. Did Star still go to the ball with Tom? I don't know.

Got all that? Okay, here we go.

Seven years after the Magic was destroyed...

Marco sighed. He should be enjoying this moment, but he wasn't. How could he, when he knew that all too soon it would come to an end? With each reoccurrence, Marco found himself actually becoming increasingly miserable as he focused more on figuring out how to prolong the experience than actually enjoying the experience for what it was.

It was almost comical. Marco surmised that he had to be the only male of any sentient species on Earthni who could possibly feel this way about having sex with his beautiful best friend.

No, it wasn't that the love making was bad. (Marco had not shared the act with anyone else, so he didn't have anything to compare it to, but as far as he could tell, it was pretty great.) He was miserable because he was hopelessly, irretrievably in love with Star, and she very clearly didn't feel the same way.

Even now, as she lay in his arms beneath the covers, she seemed happy and content, but, just like every previous time they had engaged in coitus, showed no signs of romantic feelings. Star's demeanor was no different than it would be after the pair spent a day together at the beach, or an afternoon in the kitchen meticulously crafting a complicated and delicious treat. It seemed to Marco that in Star's mind, having sex was not the single most intimate act two people could share and just another activity for two best friends to do together.

He held Star close, trying to press as much of his bare skin against hers as he could, slowly running the palm of his hand back and forth against her smooth forearm. The intimate physical contact was so warm and cozy and...and...intimate. He craved it. He never wanted it to end. Marco would give anything to just lay there in his bed with Star forever.

But, just as he knew she would, Star eventually stirred.

"Well, it's getting late," Star said, sitting up. Marco reluctantly let her slide out of his embrace. "I should probably get going. I have to be up early tomorrow."

"You could...always...just sleep here..." Marco said slowly. As Star raised herself to a sitting position, the sheets and comforter fell away, revealing the bare upper half of her body. Marco couldn't tear his eyes away. He'd always thought Star was cute and pretty, but his love had supercharged his attraction toward her, and to his eyes, she was the most gorgeous woman who had ever lived, Mewman or otherwise.

"I know, but there's stuff at my apartment I need tomorrow, so if I don't go back tonight, I'll have to stop there in the morning. Might as well just go back now." Her eyes scanned the room. "Where are my clothes?"

Marco shrugged, even though she wasn't looking in his direction. "I don't know." He watched as she wrapped her arms around herself, rubbing her sides. She even shivered.

"It's so cold in here! Where the heck did my clothes go?"

Marco knew exactly where her clothes were. He said nothing.

Star suddenly flopped back down beside him, drawing the covers over both of their heads and retreating into the warmth of the bed. Marco's hands, warm and gentle, instantly found her chilly body, and she instinctively slid closer to him, allowing him to touch her and restore heat to her cold skin. She found herself looking into his eyes from from an inch or two away and shot him a teasing smile. "You know, if I didn't know any better, I'd think you hid my clothes somehow to keep me naked as long as possible."

Marco's heart skipped a beat. Is she just teasing me, or does she know that's exactly what I did?

"Not that I'd blame you," Star went on, her eyes drifting down to Marco's chest. "It's not like I'm ever in a hurry to leave these." She ran her fingers across Marco's chest and down his abdomen. Though his muscles were nowhere near as dramatically pronounced as his future self had had in Dimension X-103, Marco had grown into a svelte and toned young man, and Star could feels his firm abdominals just below the surface. She bit her lower lip mischievously as she traced them with her fingers.

Marco gave a nervous chuckle. "I'm, uh...glad you still appreciate them, Star."

Her hands found their way to his midsection and wrapped her arms around him, resting her head on his chest just below his neck. Her long mane of blonde hair splayed out around her, draping down her sides and tickling Marco's sides. "You're so warm...and it's so cold out there. Seriously, why is your room so cold?"

Marco chose not to answer. Especially since that had also been part of his plan. Instead, he laced a hand around her back and stroked her hair, marveling at how silky and soft she managed to keep it despite its impressive length.

Star sighed, surrendering to the comfort of her best friend's warmth and gentle caress, and closed her eyes. "I guess I could stay...a little bit longer."

Yes! Marco thought, and at last he closed his own eyes and allowed himself to relax.


Two years earlier...

"Awww, that was so cute and romantic!" Star squeaked as the credits began to roll.

Marco grimaced and turned off the tv. While he found Star's description of the romantic comedy they'd just watched to be quite accurate, he did not share her enthusiasm for it one bit. In fact, he felt sick to his stomach just thinking about it.

Star noticed the disgruntled expression her best friend wore. "Marco, what's wrong?"

"Nothing," he replied curtly. "Nothing's wrong. Just...ate too much junk food and now my stomach is bothering me."

Star frowned. "Literally not possible." She slid over closer to him, and he averted his eyes, looking at the floor. "Marco, what's wrong?" He said nothing, but couldn't hide the hurt behind his brown irises. Star suddenly understood. "Oh. The movie. It reminded you of Kelly, didn't it?"

The sound of his girlfriend's name immediately drew a tear from Marco's eye that ran down his cheek and dripped from his jaw. "I miss her so much."

Star wrapped her best friend in a hug, resting her head on his shoulder. "Oh, Marco...I know. I miss Kelly, too."

Marco sniffled. "I didn't even get to say goodbye before the Magic sent her back to Woolandia..." He wiped his eyes with his sleeve. "First Jackie, then Kelly..."

"But your relationships with them didn't end because of anything you did wrong. Jackie just realized she wasn't really into guys and, I mean, technically, you and Kelly never broke up. She's just...in another dimension."

"I know, but..." Marco's voice trailed off. "As much as I want to fall in love and get married and have a family...I don't think my heart could take being broken again. Jeez, I don't even want to think about the state I'd be in if Earth and Mewni hadn't merged. If I'd have lost you and-" He paused. He had been about to list off a number of other friends from Mewni. "...If I had lost you, too...If I didn't have my best friend anymore..."

Star could hear him choking up. She hugged him tighter. "I'm here, Marco. I'm here."

He reached up and buried his fingers in her long, blonde hair. Words could never express how grateful he was to still have Star in his life. When the Magic vanished and returned him to Earth, he had been inconsolable, thinking about how he had not only lost Kelly, but also Star, in an instant. Then a portal had appeared in the sky. He knew it had to lead to Mewni, and he would give anything to have his best friend back. The portal exploded as he reached it, and Mewni merged with Earth. He suddenly found himself face to face with Star, who had been running back to him on the other side. There were lots of tears. Mournful tears over being separated from his love, but happy, grateful tears that he was reunited with his best friend. She'd been his rock for months afterwards.

For a while, neither spoke. Marco slowly regained his composure.

Star released him, and sat back. For a brief moment, Marco felt empty, like he was missing some important component of his physical being. But, as quickly as it arrived, the feeling was gone.

"You know, it's been five years now since Kelly...um...went home," Star ventured. "Maybe it's time to try to find someone new. Nothing heels heartbreak like falling in love again."

Marco shook his head. "I don't know...I wouldn't even know where to start."

"How about a dating app?" Star asked. "There's tons of 'em."

"I just...I was friends with Jackie and Kelly before we dated. I knew them, I knew what they were like. I don't want to just ask someone out based on a couple pictures and some words on a screen."

"Okay, well, are there any girls you're friends with that are single?"

"Just you."

"Oh." Star sat back, wracking her brain for another idea.

"I just don't think I'm ready for a relationship yet. I think I'll probably feel more ready when there's someone I'm actually interested in." He could tell Star didn't care for that answer. She was all set to play matchmaker.

"Well...okay, I guess..."

Marco tried to add some levity to lighten the mood. "Honestly, being single isn't so bad. You know when it sucks the most? First thing in the morning, and when I go to bed at night. I just wish I had someone to kiss good morning and good night, and snuggle with. I-" A thought popped into his head that dragged him right back down again. "...I never even got to spend a night with Jackie or Kelly."

"Well...I mean...you were still kinda teenagers. I doubt your parents or their parents would have gone for that at the time." Star flashed a knowing smirk. "You know where teens' minds always go."

"Hey, I have self control!"

"Yeah. You do. Kelly might not have." Star leaned a little closer. "Woolettes are feisty."

"...Okay, you got me there." Marco's lips scrunched together. "It would have been nice if I'd gotten to have my, uh...'first time' with either of them. Would have been nice to have my 'first time' with someone really special. They both were."

"I...actually know what you mean. I've thought about that myself."

No topic of conversation was ever off-limits between Star and Marco, so Marco didn't even bat an eye as he asked, "Do you wish you'd been with Tom long enough to have your first time with him?"

"Honesty? Not really. Tom's a great guy and a good friend and I love him, but I don't think I was ever in love with him. Plus..." She grimaced as she made hard eye contact with Marco. "I never once thought about this, not when Tom and I were dating, not after we broke up. I never considered what a demon has going on, you know..." She pointed her finger toward the floor. "...down there." She clenched her teeth as she went on. "Buuuuut Janna sure made sure to tell me about it in excruciating detail after the first time she and Tom did it."

"Oh, boy. Do I even want to know?"

Star's eyes went wide as she slowly shook her head. "Noooo...no, you do not. So, yeah, I think I dodged a very...creepy...bullet there."

"If it's creepy, then I bet Janna is into it," Marco quipped.

Star raised an eyebrow. "Tom never talks about his life in the bedroom with Janna when you guys hang out?"

"Never."

"Dude, Janna is into it like a bear is into a beehive. That may sound like a weird way to put it, but it is not."

Marco raised his palms defensively. "Okay! That's enough! I don't need to know any more!"

Star laughed. "But I do know what you mean about wanting to have your first time with someone special. Especially since, you know, from what I've heard, it's probably gonna be at least somewhat painful the first time, for me. It would be really nice to know that the person I'm allowing, you know, inside my body, has that in mind." She glanced at Marco. "You'd think of that. You're gonna be so panicked the the first time you do it, you're gonna have read every internet article in existence about not hurting your partner and have a whole slew of remedies lined up and ready to go."

"Hey! You're...! Almost definitely correct!"

Their eyes met. They broke into hysterical laughter. Star loved watching Marco genuinely laugh, especially now. There was no way he could still be feeling down if he was laughing like that. Besides, Star found laughter very attractive, and Marco looked so cute-

And then the lightbulb went off.

"Hey, Marco."

"Haha...ha...haha..." Marco was still laughing. "Haha...ahhhh...Yeah, Star?"

"What if-?" Oh, come on, he'd never go for that. "Never mind, it's stupid."

"What is?"

"I just had a crazy idea, but it's dumb."

"Star, you can't tell me you have a crazy idea and then not tell me what the crazy idea is."

"You'll think it's a bad idea."

"Even more reason to tell me."

"...I don't know..."

"Star, if you don't tell me, I'm gonna bug you about it until you do."

Star giggled. She had used that same line on Marco many times. He learned so well. She supposed she had no choice. "Well...I was gonna say..." Her cheeks tinged pink. "...What if we had our first time...with each other?"

For a moment, Marco just stared blankly, his eyes locked on Star's, saying nothing, and she began to worry what he may say when he finally did speak.

He said but two words: "Go on..."

Star hadn't realized she had been holding her breath and sucked in a relieved gulp of air. "Well...I want my first time to be with someone I trust, and we both want our first time to be with someone really special. I trust you more than I trust anyone in any dimension, and...we may not have romantic feelings for each other, but...you are my bestie...you're very special to me..."

"You're very special to me, too." Star's nervous smile got a little wider at Marco's words. "But...you wouldn't rather your first time be with someone you love- er, are in love with?"

"Maybe, but...we've been through so much together...you were even my squire. You're kind and gentle, but you also kick butt. You're smart and generous and thoughtful...You're an amazing person and-" She bit her lip. "I'd be honored to lose my virginity to you."

It was Marco's turn to blush. He had to admit, Star had some valid points, but he still had a concern. "You don't think it'll be awkward?"

"Oh, I'm positive it will be, but I imagine that would be the case no matter who you have your first sexual experience with." Star was clearly becoming more comfortable discussing the subject, though she did not catch the point of Marco's question.

"No, I mean afterwards. For us, as friends."

"Mm, nah."

Marco chuckled. "Gee, how can I argue with logic like that?" He fell silent and locked eyes with his best friend once again. "Are we really gonna do this?" he whispered nervously.

"I want to if you want to." Star swallowed. "...Do you want to?"

Marco didn't answer right away. He wasn't sure. As far as he was concerned, his heart still belonged to Kelly, but it wasn't like he would ever see her again. Maybe this was the push he needed to finally move on. "I don't know. I'm...a little scared."

"I am, too. But that's the point. We can be scared together." And then, hoping to at least make her bestie laugh, added, "And hey, don't forget, if nothing else, you get to see me naked!"

Marco blushed again. "Uh, I-I-I-I-I, um..."

She prodded Marco in the side with her finger, tickling him. He jumped away, scooting over to get out of range. "And don't even try to pretend you don't want to see m'body. I saw you staring at me last summer at the beach," she teased. "You couldn't keep your eyes off me!"

Marco's face turned the same color as his hoodie, both because he didn't realize Star had noticed him admiring her "attributes", and because the mere mention of the beach conjured a mental image of Star in her purple string bikini. She had grown up in the six years since they had first met. Her figure was still relatively petite, but had developed some very alluring, gentle curves and just enough cleavage to be quite eye-catching, all of which had been fully on display in her two-piece swimwear.

"Sorry...I couldn't help it," Marco apologized sheepishly. "You're...really pretty. In fact, I actually think I find you even more attractive because you're my best friend."

Star giggled. "It's okay, Marco! I was checking you out, too."

"You- ...you were?"

"Mhm! I just did it when I was sure you weren't looking," she said with a sly wink. "You may not be shredded like your future self was, but you've still got some nice muscles peaking out." She licked her lips seductively as her eyes flickered down to his abdominal area. "I like."

Marco unconsciously rubbed the back of his neck. "Oh...thank you..."

Star winked at him. "You also have a really cute tush."

"...I do?"

Star playfully shoved Marco over onto his side, reached out, and grabbed his right butt cheek, squeezing it with her full hand and feeling quite pleased with herself.

"Hey!" Marco yelped.

Star giggled as Marco sat up. He shot her an unamused glare. "Turnabout is fair play, you know. Maybe I'll reach over there and grab something, too!"

"Oh, yeah?" Knowing full well that it was an empty threat, Star could not resist the opportunity to tease him. With no hesitation, she arched her back, puffing out her chest toward her companion. "Go right ahead! I dare ya!"

Marco's heart skipped a beat. He had not actually been planning on making good on his threat, nor was he expecting her to flat out invite him to touch her. "W-What?"

"You heard me. I squeezed your butt, you can squeeze my boobs. Fair is fair."

Marco's eyes widened to the size of dinner plates. "Uhhhhh..."

Star chuckled. "I knew you wouldn't. You know how I know? Because you're chicken."

There wasn't much that got under Marco's skin. But, much like Mackie McFli, Mackie Hand's character from the karate/time travel movie Return to the Future Present, Marco could not stand being called chicken.

"I am not chicken!"

"Ya are so."

"Am not!"

"Are so!"

"Am not!"

Star tucked her arms in at her sides to mimic wings. "Buuuuuck! Bu-bu-bu-buuck!" she clucked. She could break him. She was determined.

"Stop that!"

"You ever touched boobies before Marco?"

He narrowed his eyes at her. "You know I haven't."

"I know you want to. You wanna know what they feel like. Well I can tell ya-" She placed her open palms over both breasts and slowly massaged the soft flesh beneath her dress. "-they feel a-mazing."

"Star, I-"

"Still won't do it, huh? Maybe it's just not tempting enough. What if I do this?"

Before Marco could even begin to wonder what Star was about to do, she had unzipped her dress about halfway, shrugged her arms free of the sleeves, and was pulling the neckline down.

"Star!" Marco jumped off the couch and covered his eyes as he turned away.

Star rolled her eyes. "Oh, c'mon, Diaz! You've seen me in a bikini and this covers more. Just turn around and look, will ya?"

With great hesitation, Marco rotated back toward his best friend. He parted his fingers just wide enough to peek through. Star sat on the couch, her dress pooled around her midsection, her chest concealed by a light pink bra. It was nothing fancy, sporting no lace or frills, and was not intended to be sexy.

Except...it was to Marco. Because unlike a bikini, this was an article of clothing not meant to be seen in public. Not meant to be seen by him. And that alone made it very hot. Already, sweat was beading on the back of his neck.

"Are you just gonna stand there and stare at me?" Star teased.

Marco hadn't even realized he had frozen on the spot, and briefly wondered how long he had been standing there without moving.

Uh-oh, I broke him, Star thought. I hoped teasing him would lighten the mood, but I think I just made him feel worse. She stood and took Marco by the hand, guiding him back to the couch. As they sat down side by side once more, she looked deeply into his chocolate brown eyes, taking his right hand by the wrist. "Marco...it's okay. You don't have to be nervous. The whole point of doing this is because we trust each other, and we want to make each other comfortable, remember?"

"Yeah...I...it's just...a little overwhelming...and super weird to hear you tell me to touch you."

"I know. But it's okay." She smiled. "I really do want you to touch me." She arched her back again just slightly, and shimmied a bit from side to side so that her breasts jiggled inside her bra. "Don't be shy. They won't bite. They're soft and bouncy and fun," she whispered. "Go ahead."

So Marco slowly raised his unsteady right hand, extending it toward his best friend's chest. But halfway, he froze, unable to go any further.

"Oh, Marco..." Star couldn't help but smile a little. Marco had grown into a confident and charming young man, but in this moment, he was so shy and bashful. It was adorable. With slow, gentle touch, she took Marco's wrist and guided his hand home, gently laying his palm against her bra.

"Oh." Marco seemed almost surprised. "I-" He fell silent again as he moved his hand around with a featherlight touch, exploring the contours of the pink bra, carefully avoiding Star's bare skin at its edge. "Soft..."

Star giggled. "Go ahead." She leaned closer, whispering, "Squeeze iiiiiiiit."

And so Marco did, very gently as if afraid it would crack if he were too aggressive. "Whoa...it's...really cool."

"I told ya."

Plucking up confidence and courage, he squeezed again. "What does it feel like for you?"

"Kinda weird."

Marco shrank back as if he burned his hand. "Oh."

"No, no, no! Not in a bad way!" Star quickly explained. "It's just weird because no one but me has ever done that. It was weird, but...I liked it." She watched as Marco's tense shoulders relaxed. "In fact...it could be better."

"What do you-"

Star reached behind her back and undid the clasp. Holding an arm across her chest to hold the cups in place, she let the straps drop from her shoulders. She didn't think it would be possible for Marco's eyes to open any wider, but she was wrong. They looked like they were about to pop from their sockets. "We...we don't have to..." Star stumbled over her words, suddenly feeling a little embarrassed. "We can take this as slow as you want, Marco. We don't even have to do it tonight. We could wait a couple days or a week or a month. Whatever you're comfortable with."

"...I want to see."

Star giggled. "I bet you do, bro." And she let the garment fall away.

Marco was spellbound. For a moment, he had no idea what to say. He just stared at his best friend, unable to look away. Finally, he broke the silence. "You're beautiful, Star."

A rush of heat filled her cheeks. "Thank you."

Marco slowly extended his hand again, pausing halfway as he met Star's eyes. She nodded approval, and Marco gently touched her. Her skin was soft and warm and smooth, and he gently caressed her breasts.

"Hey, Marco."

"What?" Marco asked, ceasing his exploration.

She smiled shyly. "You've got some nice features I'd like to see, too, you know..."

More blushing. "Oh...right. Fair is fair."

"Fair is fair."

Marco unzipped his hoodie and removed it, then followed suit with his T-shirt. Star had seen him shirtless plenty of times, but never in a setting anywhere near this level of intimacy. She reached out and poked him in the gut. "Mmmm...muscles."

"A little, I guess."

There was an awkward pause. Neither quite knew how to proceed.

"Do you want to go...a little bit further?" Star asked.

"A little sounds...okay," Marco whispered.

Star slid over until she was close enough to wrap her arms around Marco's body just beneath his arms and pushed him over, hugging him tightly as she lay down atop him. Marco could feel his heart pounding as if it were desperately trying to escape his rib cage. He and Star were making skin contact all the way from chest to navel, and the sensation prickled every single nerve. It gave him goosebumps. Her sweet, innocent face levitated over his head, their noses separated by merely air. Her brilliant blue irises appeared almost iridescent as her locks of golden hair draped around them, acting as a privacy curtain against the rest of the world.

"Wow..."

Marco's hushed exclamation of wonder caused his voice to crack, and Star giggled. "How does it feel having boobies pressed up against your bare chest?" she teased.

"It's uh...it's pretty, uh...pretty cool."

"'Pretty cool'? That's it?"

"...It's hot?"

"Are you asking me or telling me, Diaz?" Star said with a laugh.

"...Telling you?"

Star gave a faux sigh of exasperation. "You're ridiculous." She slid herself down a little and rested her head on Marco's chest, nuzzling her cheek against the muscles hiding beneath. "Mmmm..."

Marco slid his arms around Star's back and held her the same way she held him, running his fingers up and down her spine.

The atmosphere of the room turned very calm as the two best friends lay in their tight embrace. For several long minutes, neither moved, and neither spoke.

"Marco?"

"Yeah?"

"...This is nice."

"...Yeah. It's really nice."

The quiet silence resumed. Marco didn't think he'd ever heard his best friend go so long without speaking.

Star lifted her head and met Marco's eyes. "So...um...do you want to...go to your bedroom?"

"...Okay."

They slid from the couch and got to their feet. Star's dangling dress slid down to her waist, her underwear peaking out from underneath, but she ignored it, taking Marco's hand in her own. "C'mon, let's go."

"Lead the way."

Walking backwards as she lead her partner down the hallway, Star watched Marco's eyes as they remained locked on her, mesmerized, unable to look away. She smiled bashfully. As they walked through the bedroom door, Marco kicked it closed with his foot, still never taking his eyes off of Star. They kept going until Star fell over backwards onto the bed, pulling Marco down beside her.

"Well...here we are."

"Here we are."

Now that they had reached the site of their agreed upon task, awkwardness permeated every square inch of the room. Still hand in hand, they stared into each other's eyes, neither one wanting to make the first move.

"I guess..." Marco said slowly, "we should finish undressing?"

Star nodded. "That sounds right."

"Okay. Um..." Marco glanced down at his lower extremities. "I guess, I'll, uh...take my pants off..." He let go of Star's hand and nervously fumbled with his button and zipper. He'd only just managed to undo them and was hooking his thumbs into the waist band to slide them down when Star suddenly grabbed his arm to halt him.

"Wait! Marco, I just thought of something."

"What?"

"Do you have...you know...protection?"

"...Oh my gosh, I never even thought about that."

Star chuckled. "Some safe kid you turned out to be."

"You don't have protection either, do you?"

"Nope. Pegasus feathers!"

Marco sighed, and even he wasn't sure if it was a sigh of disappointment or relief. "I guess we'd better stop then."

"Yeah...Maybe it's actually for the best."

"...Oh...Yeah, I...I guess this wasn't a good idea."

"What are you talking about?"

"...Isn't that why you said it's a good idea we stopped?"

"Not at all. I still think this is a great idea. Do you think it's a bad idea?"

"No, I was just- never mind. What were you actually saying?"

"We did only just come up with this idea like fifteen minutes ago. We didn't have to do it right now. I probably, uh...accelerated things a little by accident when I took off my dress."

"Yeahhhhh..."

"Look, I think this is a great idea right now, but maybe tomorrow I won't. Maybe you won't." Star took Marco's hand again and gave it a reassuring squeeze. "Why don't we put a pin in this until movie night next week? We'll take the whole week to each think about it on our own, and if we still think it's a good idea next Saturday, then...we'll do it. Plus, you'll have the whole week to go to the pharmacy to get protection. Sound like a plan?"

Marco nodded. "Sounds like a plan."

Star flashed Marco a teasing grin. "And hey, even if we decide not to have sex, at least you got to touch boobies for the first time."

Marco's face turned red yet again, but he still managed a nervous smile as he said, "Heh heh...yeah, that was...cool."

She leaned over him and winked. "You wanna squeeze 'em again before I get dressed?"

"...Yes, please."

Unlike every other story I have in progress, this one is actually complete. I'll post a chapter a week until I reach the end, so give it a follow if you want to keep reading.

See you next week.
