Here's the next chapter. Sorry for a lack of shout outs, I'm in a hurry while writing this chapter.
Star and Marco sat in Star's room, enjoy the peaceful serenity as warm rays from the sun peered through the window. The air grew hotter and the two looked up to see Tom stepping out from behind a wall of flames. Marco narrowed his eyes and stood up, quickly drawling his sword, "Marco, stand down," Marco looked at Star in confusion and Star sighed, "You know the Lucitor's and the Butterfly's have a peaceful pact with one another. And just because he came into my room uninvited, we can't do anything unless you want a war to break out."
Marco took a deep breath and quickly sheathed his sword again before glaring at the demon prince, "Thank you, now if you don't mind, I'd like to talk to Starship in private. So if you will be so kind-"
"No," Marco crossed his arms and shook his head, "I won't attack you, but as Star's personal knight, I don't think I should leave her alone, especially with a bastard who was going to rape her. So whatever you have to say, you might as well say it,"
"Star, do you think-"
"He's staying Tom, and why shouldn't he? After your little stunt at the Blood Moon Ball, I don't think it'll be wise to be making demands," Tom sighed and shook his head, "So what do you need? Are you still sour that me and Marco danced under the light of the blood moon and-"
"What? No…I just thought I'd stop by to see how everything is down…I heard what happened. A monster kidnapped Marco and forced you to destroy the wand. You could've easily kept it intact and allowed him to die,"
"Tom, you're being inconsiderate," Tom groaned and Star stood up, "Why don't we all go down to the main foyer and continue this chat," Marco nodded as he continued to glare at the half demon prince and Tom sighed and nodded before the three teenagers walked out of the room and down the corridor.
The three teenagers walked down the staircase to the main foyer and Star sat down and Marco stood next to her, glaring at Tom. Tom sat across from Star and Star sighed, "Okay Tom, what warrant you to break into my room like that? You know it's illegal to break into the Butterfly case unannounced like that and-"
"I understand, Starship, and I know normally your uh…knight would have my head, but you stopped him and-"
Marco drew his sword and hissed, "Get to the point!"
"Okay fine…impatient little bastard…Anyway, Star, I was doing some thinking while I was frozen and I realized that…I was still a little on edge. My anger got the best of me and-"
"You think!" Star snapped and rolled her eyes, "You nearly burnt Marco to a crisp and-"
"And I'm sorry…so to make it up to you, how about I take you out tonight and give Marco the night off," the two looked at him and Tom cleared his throat, "If you want to, that is."
Star looked up at Marco and Marco leaned down as Star whispered, "What do you think?"
"Well I wouldn't mind a night off, but not at the cost of your potential rapist taking you out and he might have another relapse," Star nodded and Marco took a deep breath and shook his head, "Why don't you go and I follow close behind in a disguise, just like the Blood Moon Ball,"
"Marco, that'll feel like you don't trust me and-"
"I do trust you, Star, you know I do, but this pest…he did try to grope you, trick you and a few other things…you can go and have fun and I'll be there in case he decides to start something."
Star slowly nodded before looking back at Tom, "Okay Tom, pick me up at six…I'd like to talk to my knight in private," Tom nodded before he stood up, snapped his fingers and a portal leading to the underworld opened and he jumped through it.
Star looked at Marco and took a deep breath, "Okay, let's work on your disguise," Marco nodded as Star stood up and the two of them walked back up the stairs.
Okay, I'm sorry for another lackluster chapter. Please enjoy everyone and please let me know what everyone thinks.
