When the three got to Marco, they could see that he was hurt badly. Star kneels down and looks closer at Marco, tears falling from her eyes.

"Marco…" Star said softly. "What have I done…"

Marco said nothing, though he was starting to breathe normally. Star was crying tears of joy that Marco was still alive, tears of sadness that she hurt him, and tears of anger that Tom made her hurt him, all at the same time. She turned to Tom with skulls in her cheeks. Tom and Ludo looked very afraid, and so were the monsters.

"TOM! I WILL KILL YOU FOR THIS!" yelled Star.

"Woah, Star. Let's not get angry…hehe…" Tom said in a little fear.

"Angry?! ANGRY?! I'LL SHOW YOU ANGRY!" yelled Star. "MEGA NARWHAL BLAST!" and out of her wand was a giant narwhal that was about to fall down on Ludo, Tom and the monsters, who were screaming. The narwhal falls down on them, and destroys part of the castle, along with sending out Tom, Ludo and the monsters.

Star, Ferguson and StarFan13 go back to Marco, and Star picks him up.

"C'mon, guys. Let's go home." said Star, holding Marco. She notices her Dimensional Scissors on the ground. She picks it up, cuts open a portal and goes back home with Marco. Ferguson and StarFan13 follow her as well.

Meanwhile, Ludo, Tom and the monsters free themselves from the narwhal on the rubble.

"WE WERE SO CLOSE TO TAKING OVER THE UNIVERSE!" yelled Ludo.

"Yeah, and I had enough of today!" said Tom. He goes back to the carriage that he parked near Ludo's castle, and goes back to his home dimension. Ludo turns to his monsters.

"Raise your hands if you want to do a new plan tomorrow." said Ludo. The monsters, still lying down on the rubble, slowly raise their hands.

"Good. Let's get to work…right after we clean this place up."


Star's House, 7:00pm:

Marco wakes up, and noticed that he's on his bed. He checks around his body to find that he was healed from his bruises. He quietly gets up, leaves his bed and opens the door. As he walks down the stairs, he notices Star sitting down on the couch, looking quite sad. He walks to her, and sits beside her.

"Hey, Star."

"Hey, Marco." said Star, not bothering to look at him.

"Look Star, I-I…"

"Hold on, Marco. Before you say something, let me just say…I'm leaving you." said Star, wiping tears. Marco looked shocked.

"What?! Why?" asked Marco, with concern. He didn't think Star would even think of leaving him, even with reason.

"Marco, I'm a monster. I accidentally made you lose your crush, and I almost killed you. I deserve to be yelled at and beaten up because of this whole afternoon." said Star, breaking into tears. "I'm leaving you so that you can have some space."

"No…please don't leave. I-I can't imagine life without you." said Marco. "You made my life better, Star."

"But Marco, it's all my fault. I caused all the bad stuff today, and I'm sorry."

"No, Star. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have overreacted when you did that. I said all those things I didn't mean, and I didn't believe you. I was just so mad that I forgot that you were my best friend. It's my fault and I'm sorry." Star was still crying, and Marco wipes away her tears with his sleeve. "Besides, no matter what you do, you always deserve to be forgiven, and I forgive you."

"And I forgive you too." said Star, hugging him. "I don't want to see you upset again."

"Me too, and I would do anything to see that beautiful smile on your face." said Marco. Star blushes a little bit. "Oh…um…where's Ferguson and StarFan13?" Star lets go of Marco.

"I brought them home. Plus, I healed you with my wand."

"Cool. Cool." said Marco. "So you'll stay, right?"

"I'll stay, Marco. I'll still stay." said Star, smiling.

"Thanks." Everything went silent for a while, until Marco remembered another thing he wanted to say to Star. "Oh, Star. I forgot to tell you something. I got a call from Jackie."

"Really? What did she say?"

"She said she liked it that I have a crush on her, but then she said she was in a relationship with Oskar."

"Wait, what?!"

"I know, right? It was so weird. Now that I know that Jackie is in a relationship, I don't know who I should fall in love with next."

"Me neither. Anyway, I think we should go to sleep already. It's 7:00, but I think I want to crash."

"Yeah. Me too." Marco and Star got up from the couch, and went back to their rooms. They both went to bed, but it was hard to go to sleep right away. With so many events that happened that day, they couldn't stop thinking about it.

Marco felt like he was starting to grow a crush on Star, and Star felt like she was starting to grow a crush on Marco.

"Am…am I falling in love with Star? Yes, it has to be." thought Marco. "Will it be awkward if I ever tell her that? Should I tell her that?"

"Should I tell Marco that I'm starting to have a thing for him?" thought Star. "It might destroy or strengthen our relationship."

Eventually, after a lot of thinking, and after a lot of wondering if they should tell their feelings, they dozed off and…coincidentally, they had the same dream…


(The Dream)

Marco and Star were sitting on a bench at the park. It was a beautiful sight. Birds were humming to themselves, the sun was shining, and not a single cloud was blocking it. The air was fresh, the flowers were lovely, and just about everything in the scenery was perfect.

Marco turned to Star. To him, Star was the most beautiful thing he's ever seen. And he wanted to say something great to her.

"Star, there's something that I want to say to you." said Marco. "It's very important, and I hope this doesn't make things awkward between us."

"What is it, Marco?" asked Star. Marco was sweating a little bit, and he turned a little red. But he said what he wanted to say.

"I love you, Star." said Marco. Star turned as red as a tomato, as she said something as well.

"I love you too, Marco." said Star. Marco blushed as well. Both of them were about to share a kiss. They got closer to each other, and were about to touch each other's lips, until all of a sudden…

(End Dream)

Star and Marco's alarm clocks went off at the same time. Star rose up immediately from her bed while Marco accidentally fell off his own bed. Both looked at the time. It was 7:00 in the morning.


No, this isn't the ending yet. There's a little bit more to go. What did you think of this one? Read and review.
