Hey people lets get started. I wanna thank my good friend TheAmazingTurtle for helping with this. They helped me out with some of the character match ups I did so they are getting some recognition for it. TheAmazingTurtle also write SVTFOE fanfiction and Pokémon fanfiction so if you want you can check them out also. In my point of view they are better then me. Since they are my inspiration for starting this account and writing my first ever story on here which is a SVTFOE Starco fanfic called Holiday Horror. Anyway onto the story.
New Years eve.
The snow was falling down in pretty flakes as New Years was coming soon. The ski lodge was packed with people ending their winter break. A New Years party was filled with teens and young adults celebrating the occasion. One girl in particular sat in a lounge area ,away from the party, curled up on the coach reading a perfectly good book. While she was reading her mum came up to her with a look of concern on her face before taking the book from her daughters grasp.
"Star it is New Years eve, enough reading." She said holding the book away from her daughter as she tried to grab it back. The girl had blonde hair tied up in a messy bun, ocean blue eyes, two heart birth marks in the centre of her cheeks. she was wearing a tracksuit in hopes of only reading her book that evening.
"But Mum I'm almost done and I.." Star said back trying to put her book mark in the page while her mother held it back more.
" The Teen party, I have laid out your best clothes come and get ready." Her mum said cutting her off giving here a stern look to tell her to go and do it.
" Can I at least have my book back?" Star asked sitting up and getting ready to leave. Her mum looked at her then the book a faint smile dressed her face as she gave her daughter the book back.
"Thank you." Star said taking the book and sliding the book mark in her page before hugging it to her chest.
"Come on." Her mum says. Star gets up and walks away dreading this party.
Upstairs in the lodge there is a gym and in this gym was a teenage boy and his dad shooting some hoops the dad dressed in tracksuit and the teen in basket ball kit. A women dressed up in party attire looks into the gym and just sighs in irritation. Both boys are completely unaware of her presence there.
"Keep working left Marco if we got the championship game were expected then we gonna torch them." His dad said passing the ball to the teen. The both got in position as the boy was thinking what the man just said.
"By going left?" Marco asked before making a move. Marco had dark brown hair with matching eyes, Latino tanned skin and a cute mole on his right cheek.
"Yea, he looks in the middle then take it down town." His dad explained with enthusiasm. The boy looked confused for a minute .
"Ok like this?" he asked while running past him and scoring a basket from the left side. The lady walked into the gym while the two boys were talking about the basket Marco just shot and the big game coming up
"Boys, did we really fly all this way just to play more basket ball?" The lady who is Marco's mum asked looking a little annoyed both boys looked at each with a little bit of guilt in their eyes.
"Yea." The father and son answered in synch. The women walked towards them, her heels clattered against the wood floor.
"It's the last night of vacation, the party remember." She said twirling around showing of her dress. She was still annoyed at them.
" Right the party, the party for New Years eve." The dad said while messing with the basket ball in his hands.
" Marco they have a kids party downstairs in the free style club." She said in a matter of fact tone pointing towards the exit. Marco sighed a little bit and a pained look played on his face.
"Kids party?" He asked a bit put of at the sound of a kids party.
"Young adults, now go shower up." She said still pointing towards the exit. Marco still didn't like the sound of this. he ran to his dad and grabbed the ball from him and ran towards his mum a little.
"One more?" He asked holding up one figure looking pleadingly into his mothers eyes. She sighed in annoyance at her son before putting her hands on her hips.
"Last One." He said while behind him his dad is repeating the words real quick over and over again. She caves in and gives a nod. A bright smile appears on Marco's face before he turns around, runs past his dad and shoots another basket. And of course it's nothing but net.
"There you go, that's the way to end it." Marco said walking up to his dad happily. Before they all walk out of the gym.
The party in the club is more packed then before, everyone involved with doing something of a festival like manner. Fairy lights hung from the celling, balloons scatted and pinned to walls. A soft song was playing and singing was coming from a little stage in the middle of the room. Marco walked in wearing some nice jeans, a fancy shirt and a brown jacket. He shoved his hands in his pockets and moved his way through the crowds of people. From another entrance Star emerged holding her book once more. She wore black jeans, a white shirt coved by a light blue cardigan. Her blonde hair was down and flowing in natural curls and waves and it was quite long. She moved her way through the hordes of party people. One boy in a cowboy hat turned to her and said " Howdy ma'am." Star giggled before walking through the crowds once more a smile placed on her face. She soon found a comfy chair to sit down on and read.
A man walked onto a stage were a girl and a guy stood by microphones obviously just finishing their duet. " Wow what a lovely couple of snow boarders." He says as the two people walk of stage. Their audience cheerfully clapping for them. The girl waved to the crowd before walking into it and getting lost in a sea of people.
"Whose gonna rock the house next?" he asked looking around. People went into groups of chatter as two spot lights zoomed across the crowds. Marco stood alone leaning against the pillar doing nothing in particular then listening to the crowds of different chatter. Then suddenly a spotlight landed on him, he didn't think anything of it at first but then people started cheering at him and going ohh at him he looked up and realised he had been chosen to go and sing. People started pushing him as he tried saying no and that the fact he doesn't sing. The other spotlight hit Star who was minding her own business and reading her book. As the spotlight hit she notice the light got brighter and looked up, the man from the stage walked over to her taking her hand and pulling her up out of the chair she looked fearful of what was happening. Marco on the other hand was still trying to argue his way into not singing before they finally pushed him on stage. The man from earlier came between the two strangers and placed the Microphone back in the stand but not before saying.
"Someday, someday you two might thank me for this. Or not." and with that he walked off stage. Marco and Star had made eye contact and they both realised that the person they were singing with was really good looking. In Marcos head his brain was telling him not to do this but one look at the girl and his heart was saying sing with her. Marco thought Star was gorgeous, with her long wavy blonde hair, her crystal blue that seemed endless and her hearts on her cheeks. Star was full of fears the last time she sung in front of people was a long time ago. She stood reserved on the stage, arms crossed over together and her gaze at the floor. But earlier when she caught the gaze of the randomly picked stranger she noticed that he was handsome. He had soft looking brown hair, and chocolate eyes you can melt in and to finish it all of he had the worlds cutest mole on his cheek. The music started and the two teens stood rigid and nervous at their microphones. Marco decided to start since it looked like Star wasn't going to.
( Marco - Bold, Star - Italic, Bold Italic-Both)
Living in my own world,
Didn't understand,
That anything could happen,
When you take the chance.
Marco started to sing and even himself couldn't believe that he could sing, it was like a miracle. He looked at Star wondering who the mysterious girl who looked afraid was. While he was singing he was also nervous and he would try to look any where but in front of him or at the girl but she was too incredible that he kept stealing glances at her. He finished his bit for now and turned his back waiting for the girl to sing.
I never believed in,
What I couldn't see,
I never opened my heart,
To all the possibilities. ohh
Star sung timidly only looking at the screen and to the right of her. She knew she could sing she just didn't. Marco was surprised by her voice, an angelic voice to match an angelic face. Star was surprised Marco could sing his voice was amazing.
I know,
That something has changed,
Never felt this way,
And right here tonight.
When they sung together it was in perfect harmony. For to complete strangers they were singing perfectly and without rehearsal. People started to stop and actually listen to the singing from the two people on stage.
This could be the start of something new,
It feels so right to be here with you, oh
And now looking in your eyes,
I feel in my heart,
Feel in my heart,
The start of something new. oh yea.
As these two strangers sung together, their smiles grew wider and wider they started to enjoy themselves and kept looking over at each other more then they was neither one could help it. Wasn't their fault that their karaoke partner was extremely good looking. as Marco started into the next verse he started taking of his jacket and he trough it into the crowd next to him
Who would ever thought that, mmm
We'd both be here tonight,
And the world looks so much brighter,
Brighter, Brighter,
With you by my side,
By my side.
The two got my confident with each note they sung either alone or together. Marco started getting dramatic and doing little dance moves where he was standing or over exaggerating his actions, just to see the girl smile. He really liked her smile. Star was laughing at the silliness of her duet partner not only did he have a great voice but he was goofy too and it was hard to try and sing and not laugh instead. The crowds grew more as the two sung but neither one of them noticed it was just them two singing in their own little world.
I know,
That something has changed,
Never felt this way,
I Know it for real.
Maybe this Party wasn't going to be as bad as both of them originally thought. The crowds clapped and danced to the song these teens were singing.
It could be the start of something new,
It feels so right to be here with you, ohh
And now looking in your eyes,
I feel in my heart,
The start of something new.
The two teens were practically singing to each other as they both turned and faced each other. Marcos moves got more often and funnier just to keep that 100 watt smile of enjoyment on the girls face. Star's smile only grew wider and wider as her and her mystery singer sung the song in perfect synch. They sung like it had been practised a thousand times before but neither one know who the other even was. As Marco began the next part he pick up the mic stand and walked over to Star with it in a sort of funky strut which made Star smile more
I never knew that it could happen,
Till it happened to me, oh yea,
Star finally loosened up and joined in the dancing. She also started giggling a bit when Marco bent over with the mic stand and sung dramatically.
I didn't know it before,
But now it's easy to,
SEEEEE OHHH!
They both practically yelled the last note of the verse and both threw a hand up in the air. They enjoyed singing it felt completely new but they loved it.
It's the start of something new,
It feels so right to be here with you,
And now looking in your eyes,
I feel in my heart,
They sung looking each other dead in the eye. Marco moved Star's mic stand out of the way and walked closer to her as they sung. star tried moving back but she didn't get very far before falling of the edge of the stage and two people pushed her back up which ended up in her running into Marco.
Cause it's the start of something new,
It feels so right to be here with you,
To be here with you,
And now looking in your eyes,
I feel in my heart,
Feel in my heart,
The start of something new,
The start of something new,
The start of,
Something new.
The ended just staring into each others eyes, completely focused on the person in front to care about anyone else around them. The cheering and screams of people applauding them got louder and that guy got on the stage but neither one took any notice. Both at a lost for words just staring into each others eyes.
"Marco." Marco said holding out his hand to the girl in front of him. His smile on his face as well as hers. Star leaned forwards a bit so he could hear her while shaking his out stretched hand and shaking it.
" Star." She said happily. The party lights made her eyes twinkle like stars. They stood their awkwardly shaking each others hand and staring into each others eyes.
They both left the stage, Marco found his jacket and put it on. They both left the party and got to know each other.
" But seriously you have an amazing voice." Marco stated to Star happily while she sipped a mug of hot chocolate. "You're a singer right?" He asked her as they walked together mugs in hand.
" Just church choir is all, I tried solo and nearly fainted." She said to him as the leaned against a table.
" Really why's that?" Marco asked determined to know as much about this fascinating girl as he could. He didn't even know if he would ever see her again so he as making the most of the night.
" I took one look at all the people staring at me and then the next thing I knew I was staring at the ceiling, end of solo career." Star explained with a smile. she has never felt so comfortable with someone in so long. It was nice.
"Well with the way you sang tonight, that's pretty hard to believe." Marco stated looking at her smiling. Now this was one of the nest moments he has had and it is simply talking to a girl.
" Well that was the first time I have done something like that, I mean it was soo cool." Star said happily she scooted closer to Marco more but she didn't know why she just wanted to.
"I know, completely." Marco said dumbstruck. He was dumbstruck on the fact that this girl was talking to him and the fact he just sang. Who knew a basket ball guy could sing.
"Well you sound like you have done a lot of singing too." Star said turning the conversation on him. She leaned against the table more as Marco smirked a little
"Yea, sure my shower head is very impressive." He said she smiled up at him since he was taller then her. She giggled at his statement before the cheers of people counting down to new years was heard. They fell into a moment of comfortable silence. They both looked up at the sky as the fireworks went off, they watched the fireworks in silence their focus never coming of the sky being lit up by colourful explosives as snow fell elegantly around the two.
They turned to each other and just stared into each others eyes. Then Star looked away and towards the door.
" I guess I should go find my mum and wish her a happy new year." Star said looking back at Marco.
" Yea me too." Marco replied a little too quickly and not fully thinking his answer through. He realised his mistake and carried on
" I mean not your mum but my mum and dad." He said a tension filled for a second before being trashed by Marco having an idea.
"I'll call you, I'll call you tomorrow." He said reaching into his jean pocket to remove his phone Star gave out a yeah before reaching into the hand bag she had to get her phone
"Here put your number in." He said opening his phone but before he handed it over to her he took a photo of her to go with the contact. After the photo being taken they swapped phones.
"You too." Star said motioning towards the camera on her phone singling that he should take a picture of himself which he did before putting his number in. After all that they switched back their phones. Star took her phone and left when Marco turned his back to her. Marco started talking thinking that Star was right next to him
"Just so you know singing with you was the most fun I've had on this entire vacation, so um where do you live?" Marco said only turning to see Star gone when asking where she lives. A small frown played on his face at the thought she left before saying goodbye. He looked around and couldn't see her so he just looked at the photo on his phone instead. he smiled to myself before he looked up.
"Star." he whispered into the night and thought about her.
