Author's notes: Hey guys! Sorry I wasn't able to update this one in a bit. So here's a really fluffy one I wrote. I actually came up with this idea when I saw the promo picture for Freeze Day of Star holding Marco's face. The second I saw that picture, this is what I thought it meant. My brain slowly twisted that one picture into a very fluffy fanfiction. Well hopefully you guy's will enjoy this weird one lol.
Anyways, enjoy the fic! (Warning: High amounts of Starco trash in this one. You have been warned.)
Star giggled uncontrollably as she grabbed Marco Diaz's sleeping face.
It was the middle of the afternoon and Marco had decided to take his routine evening nap on the couch. It was really the only time he got peace and quiet, aside from when he slept through the night, ever since Star came to Earth. Not that he didn't like his life being chock full of adventure, it was just nice to relax once in a while.
Star however, had other ideas. It all started a two months after she had arrived on Earth.
Two months after she had arrived on Earth...
"Ughhh I'm sooo BOREEDD," she complained as she slammed her fists on her bed repeatedly.
"I wish Marco was awake," she pouted. "We could be kicking some serious monster butt right now!"
Star had always enjoyed the company of her best friend from Earth. Most of the time when he wasn't in her company, she was a little less lively than she thought she should've been. She was usually a very big optimist and tried to live life to the fullest, but it still didn't change the fact that when she was with Marco, everything seemed to be just a little more fun in her eyes.
Star sighed into her pillow before getting up from her bed and heading towards the door of her bedroom. She knew complaining to herself wasn't going to solve anything.
She walked downstairs wondering if there was anything she could do to pass time until Marco woke up. When she arrived at the bottom of the stairs, she decided to check up on him to see if he was awake yet. She took a quick peek into the living room and snickered. There, lying sideways on the couch was none other than Marco Diaz. His mouth was wide open and his arms were sprawled out across the couch as he breathed in and out softly. Star thought he looked cute like that.
Suddenly, an idea popped into her head. She quickly whipped out her wand and tiptoed towards the sleeping boy hoping he wouldn't be awaken. She kneeled down and brought her face closer to his while she examined it. She never really took a close look of Marco completely still like this, so she savored the chance. For some reason, just looking at his face like this filled her with quite glee. She saw the steady movements of his chest as he breathed in and out, his warm breath tickling her as she smiled at how warm it felt.
Shaking her head, she proceeded to go forward with her plan. She grinned mischievously as she brought her wand up next to her face, pointing the front directly at Marco's face.
"Sleeping Sparkle Relaxation Blast," she whispered quietly. All of a sudden, a white mist seemed to envelop Marco before disappearing a second later.
She tested the spell by shaking him a little. He continued to sleep peacefully. Then, she jumped onto the couch and landed on his chest, looking down expecting to see him screaming at her in surprise. He grunted from the sudden impact, but then resumed to breath in and out peacefully, asleep.
She smiled to herself in approval as she hopped off Marco and kneeled down next to his face again. The spell she had cast only lasted for 20-30 minutes but in that amount of time, he wouldn't be awoken up by physical contact no matter how much she bothered him.
Slowly and gently, she pressed both her hands against both his cheeks and started to mush them around. She giggled at how squishy and cute she thought his face was. She made many weird faces by manipulating his facial features.
"Hi, I'm Marco and I think Star is the coolest girl in the world!" Star said trying to imitate the deepness of Marco's voice as she squished his cheeks together opening and closing his mouth.
She laughed at how silly he looked while she played with his face. It was very amusing and very entertaining for some odd reason.
For the next 30 minutes, she moved his face around and ruffled his hair. It gave her glee every second she felt his warm and inviting face under her hands.
"Hee hee so cute," she cooed as she continued to mess up his hair and twist his face to look weird.
When it was about time for the spell to wear off, she reluctantly took back her hands and backed away from him so that he wouldn't wake up to see her watching him sleep when he woke up.
As if on cue, Marco woke up a few seconds later.
"Ahhh," he stretched his arms out as he sat up. "That was a really peaceful!" he yawned.
Star was standing next to the couch her hands on her mouth as she snickered quietly. He had no idea what she did.
Marco noticed this, and turned to her.
"Oh hey Star! What's so funny? Did I miss something?" he questioned.
She snickered even more violently and turned away from him.
Marco raised his eyebrow in confusion.
She cleared her throat and calmed herself before turning back around to face him with a bright smile.
"Oooohhhh it's nothing!" she sang. She decided not to tell him about her little 'adventure'.
"Now c'mon let's go do something! I've been soooo bored!" she said excitedly before pulling him off the couch and dragging him towards the door. Part of this was true, but she had to admit, she had an inhumane amount of fun just squishing Marco's soft face.
Marco just rolled his eyes at her weird behavior and dismissed it. He figured it was just normal, since she hailed from another dimension.
A few months later...
Star threw her pillow against the wall in frustration.
Today at school, she had seen her crush, Oskar, flirting with another girl. He had let the girl play a key on his keytar and sit on top of his car which angered Star because he never let anyone sit on his car or touch his keytar.
"What does she have that I don't?!" she complained.
Overlooking the fact that girl was emo and also had a record like Oskar, Star didn't know why he would choose that girl out of all people. She thought he preferred he liked girls like her, ones who were extremely energetic and adored his music.
She rubbed her temples in frustration and marched out of her room, deciding to eat some ice cream which always seemed to calm her down.
She muttered to herself about what she would do to get Oskar back as she walked down the stairs and headed towards the kitchen. All of a sudden, before she could reach the kitchen, she heard a loud snore come from the couch.
She turned her head to see Marco sleeping on the couch again. She crossed her arms and turned away from him.
"Marco, I'm not in the mood right now!" she humphed.
Ever since those last few months ago, she had developed a habit of playing with Marco's face and messing around with him in his sleep. She would mess around with him daily while he was asleep and she never got tired of it. It was a major stress reliever and always to fill her with happiness. She even started talking to him in his sleep even though she knew he couldn't hear her.
She stood her ground as she looked towards the kitchen. She was trying to stay upset like she knew she should've been but it was really hard considering she wanted to feel how soft his face was again. She held her position for a few moments, before desire to mush his face around again crept up on her until she couldn't take it anymore.
"Maybe... just one poke on the cheek," she mumbled before turning back to Marco and striding towards him. She kneeled next to his face again before casting the spell.
She poked his cheek once. A giggle began to rise up her throat before she pushed it back down. She knew she shouldn't be messing around right now, since she had to think of ways to get Oskar back from that one girl. Yet, the desire to simply keep touching his face overpowered her other desire to try to get her crush to like her. She began to happily ruffle his hair and mush his face around again for the next few minutes, like she always did daily. This time however, she decided to try something new. Around 15 minutes later, she took his head and pulled him a little closer before giving wrapping her arms around his head and giving him a big hug. Slowly and surely, the very thought of Oskar disappeared as she pressed her own cheek against Marco's. Suddenly, she felt her own cheeks redden and that giggle that she had held back had now escaped her mouth. Initially, she was surprised at her own reaction and pulled away quickly from his face. She pulled her arms away from and turned into a different direction before feeling her cheeks with the palms of her hands.
"What the..." she began.
They were glowing softly and felt very warm under her palm. She didn't know why or how this was happening, but one thing was for sure, she loved this feeling.
She looked back at Marco. She didn't know one person could make her feel so incredibly... happy just by touching them.
She smiled warmly at him and grabbed his face softly. Somehow, playing with his face today diminished her resolve to get her crush. Suddenly, she didn't want to even be with Oskar, she didn't even remember why she had liked him in the first place. She was grateful to Marco for helping her overcome her crush to see that Oskar wasn't the right one for her, even though he didn't really do anything since he was asleep.
"Thanks Marco," she whispered softly.
Her face hovered close to him as she gave him a light kiss on the cheek before pulling away and walking off before Marco woke up. She had a big smile that was plastered on her face the whole day that she just couldn't get rid of.
A month later...
"Brrrrr!" she shivered as she walked around the Diaz household. Right now, it was snowing profusely outside and it was EXTREMELY cold in the Diaz household. Star was wearing a furry jacket and tried to cast some spells to make it warmer for her, but to no avail.
She was pacing back and forth downstairs burning energy in hopes all the walking will heat herself up just a little. She glanced at the living room to see Marco sleeping on the couch again. She eyed his sleeping form in jealousy.
How can he just sleep like that?! And on a day like this too?! she thought annoyed.
All Marco was wearing was his usual hoodie and an extra t-shirt underneath. He had said he felt pretty cozy in what he was wearing, but Star found it completely unfair that his hoodie and extra shirts made him warm enough to sleep through the incredibly cold temperatures.
I bet he's feeling all nice and cozy in his stupid hoodie. she thought. I have to put some effort into even trying to stay warm!
She eyed Marco once again, trying to figure out how he could be so warm right now. All of a sudden, she gasped.
"That's it!" she exclaimed as she pulled out her wand and walked purposefully towards him before casting the spell. She glared at him.
"Don't be so selfish next time Marco!" she scolded his sleeping body. "You can't just keep all that heat for yourself! Didn't your mom always tell you to share with others?!"
The only response she received from his sleeping form was a few snores. She rolled her eyes. She would remember to scold him later after he woke up.
Quickly, she set Marco on his side and pushed him to the back of thr couch, making room for her to lay beside him. She plopped onto the couch and laid down facing him.
"Ahhhh that's better," she sighed in content as she felt his warm breath tickle her face. She blushed a little at what she was doing but then decided that it was alright. It's not like he would find out anyway.
She took his arms and wrapped both of them around her as she snuggled closer to him. She was now very pleased with the outcome of her idea as she felt the warmth he was emanating seeping through her, dispelling the cold.
However, she felt that something was missing. She looked slowly at Marco's face and suddenly had an urge to feel his face against. Slowly, she wrapped her arms around his head and brought his face cloer to her's. She gently pressed her cheek up against Marco's cheek before sighing in happiness. She began to rub her cheeks up and down against his cheeks as she purred in affection. She liked the way her face felt against his.
"Hee hee hee," she let out small giggles as she continued to do what she was doing.
Suddenly, she heard the door open as foosteps started to make their way quickly towards the living room. Star however, found it hard to move from her comfortable position so she decided to just continue to do what she was doing and worry about whoever came in later.
"Hey Marco you ready to buy that sweet new-" Ferguson began. His jaw dropped as he witnessed Star rubbing her face against Marco's while they layed down on the couch in each others arms, cuddling. He also noticed that Marco was asleep.
He looked directly at Star his face full of wonder and confusion... and a little bit of fear.
"Star" he said slowly. "What are you-"
She turned to Ferguson and pointed her wand angrily at him.
"Sorry Ferguson but if you don't mind, I'm busy right now with my Marco time. I suggest leaving now or I'll blast you to another dimension," she threatened him with a menacing face. Then, she put her wand down and continued to run her face up and down against Marco's cheek, smiling happily. "Oh by the way," she giggled as she felt her nose hit Marco's nose. "If you tell anyone, especially Marco, I'll make sure to transform you into a pig before setting you lose in the wild jungles of Mewni where every single animal that lives there will be hunting you until you meet a slow and painful death as they slowly rip you to shreds."
Ferguson, having no idea what was going on, decided to just run out the door before Star got really mad. He knew better than to mess with an inter dimensional princess when she was angry. He walked home contemplating the meaning of life and asking himself questions about what he just saw.
"Was she cuddling him? How the heck did Marco pull it off? When the heck does she not have 'Marco time' if she spends every moment with him?" he muttered as he walked himself home.
Present Day...
She joyfully mushed his face around then switched to rubbing her face against his. Occasionally, she would plant a few kisses on the top of his nose which caused her to be slightly embarrassed but decided that since Marco wouldn't find out, it was alright.
"So cute!" she squealed in delight. She closed her eyes and savored the feeling of his face under her hands.
"Star... what are you doing?"
Surprised by the familiar voice, she quickly opened her eyes to find a very red faced Marco staring at her in confusion as she held his face.
She quickly pulled her arms back and shot away from him in surprise.
OH NO! He's awake! How is that possible?! The spell should've- she thought.
She gasped in realization. In her excitement, she had forgotten to cast the spell.
Marco sat up on the couch and looked at her for answers. He had been sleeping peacefully when suddenly, a strange feeling came across his face that woke him up. He had realized someone was moving his face and decided to keep his eyes shut and let the person continue moving his face to find out what they were up to. He heard excited, girly giggles come from the person which indicated that Star was the one doing whatever it was to his face. He thought she was doing some weird Mewni thing until he felt her face rub against his. He tried his very best to hide the severe blush that was creeping up to his face and tried not to enjoy it too much. However, when she tarted to plant little kisses on the top of his nose, it became too much for the guy to handle as the blush illuminated his cheeks. Fortunately for him, Star had not noticed this in her excitement. After another face rubbing, he couldn't take not knowing what she was doing anymore and had decided to reveal that he was awake.
Star bit her lip nervously and fiddled with her wand. It was going to take some serious explaining to tell him what she'd been up to.
"Starrr?" Marco said expectingly.
She sighed in defeat. There was no way out of this. She had been caught red handed and there was nothing she could do about it other than to tell him the truth. Or in this case, show him.
She got up from the floor and sat right next to him. She looked straight into his eyes, prepared for whatever he might do.
...and grabbed his face.
She just couldn't resist not doing it anymore. She very much enjoyed playing with his face and found out that him being awake didn't change the fact she still wanted to hug, kiss, and squish his face.
Marco's cheeks bursted into a deep shade of red at the sudden gesture.
"Star!" he yelped as he grabbed her wrists before lightly pulling her hands away. Honestly, he actually enjoyed the feeling of Star holding his face like that, but he wanted to know first what the heck was going on.
"What are you-"
Before he could finish his question, she tackled him into a bear hug. He fell backwards from the impact and landed lying down on the couch beside Star, trapped in her hug.
She then began to violently rub her face against his with a smile as she forced him to snuggle with her.
Marco was at a lost for words. He would never have dreamed that something like this would have happened. Sure, he had a tiny (large) crush on Star which Ferguson somehow managed to find out and constantly tease him about, but he just assumed he never had a chance considering all the guys that Star crushed on.
Or at least the guys he thought she was crushing on.
His mind tried to find any reasonable explanation to why she was doing this but to his confusion, he couldn't think of any. He just could not process that a girl like Star might actually like him.
Confused and dazed by what was happening, he started to pull his hands away from Star to break the hug when suddenly, he heard her wand buzzing with energy from behind him.
"If you stop hugging me I'll turn your arms into marshmallows," she threatened him in a very non threatening way. Apparently, it was very hard to sound threatening to someone when said person was also the same one you're affectionately snuggling with.
Marco still got the point however, and hugged her a little tighter. It was best not to anger a princess from another dimension that could incinerate you with a few words and a blast from her wand.
Star sighed contently as she continued to rub her cheek against Marco's face.
"I have a confession I have to make," she said happily. "Every time you take a nap, I like to play with your face."
In reality, this should've sounded very creepy but to Marco, he found it actually very adorable.
"But now that you knowwww," she said. "I can just do this to you when you're awake now!"
"But Star-" Marco started.
Her wand started glowing with energy again. "I can can't I?" she asked subtly threatening him as she asked for confirmation.
He gulped. "Y-yeah s-sure!" he stuttered. He had never seen Star act this way, not to say he didn't enjoy it.
The wand stopped glowing as Star relaxed a bit.
"Good," she said satisfied. "Now hold still!"
For the next 20 minutes, they laid there on the couch, Star comfortably nestling Marco.
He felt a little unsure of how to react but eventually, he decided to just relax and pray that it wasn't a dream. Every time she mushed his face around, he compliantly let her do so. Every time she rubbed her face against his, he slowly began to feel the need to rub his face against her's back. Every time she gave him a little kiss on the nose, he felt tempted to give her a kiss on the lips.
At the end of their cuddling session, Star sat up and pulled Marco up with her. She gave him a big smile which made his face blush into a deep red. He couldn't believe that just happened, and was extremely happy that it did.
"Thanks Marco! That felt reallllly nice!" she thanked him.
He nodded his head, afraid to open his mouth in fear that he would tell her something crazy like he liked her or something. He began to get up from his spot before Star took his hand and pulled him back down. His nerves were now getting the better of him as she looked into her shiny, blue eyes.
"Oh! There's one more thing by the way!" she said. She leaned in closer to him. "I never really got to know what your lips felt like!"
Marco's eyes widened. His mouth opened to say something but was cut short as Star quickly leaned in and kissed him. All other thoughts evaporated in his mind as he felt the softness of Star's lips. The only thing he could think about now, was to focus on the girl in front of him. He closed his eyes and kissed her back passionately. Sparks traveled through both of their bodies. They felt like they had entered heaven and didn't want to leave. An infectious warmth traveled up and down their bodies that filled them with so much comfort, they felt content to sit there and do this forever.
A few seconds later, they reluctantly pulled away for air and stared at each other. For a few moments, everything was silent as they lost themselves in each other's eyes. Finally, Star broke the moment by tackling him into a soft and warm hug. She realized why doing this to his face had made her so incredibly happy. She didn't just enjoy being with her best friend, she loved it. More specifically, she loved him.
"I love you," she whispered softly into his ear.
Marco didn't know how this little habit had started or how long it had been going on or how he had managed to get her to fall in love with him but one thing was for sure.
"I love you too," he said as he pressed his lips against her forehead, holding Star in his arms like he had been entrusted with keeping her safe from danger.
In his eyes, he was.
Author's Notes: I have transcended into a new level of trash by writing this one. So many unrealistic stuff happened in this but I don't care, it's adorable. Well anyways, thanks for the reviews and if you guys ever have a prompt, feel free to message me or leave one in the reviews. Until then, I'll see you guys later!
