Awkward.

Stars pov


          A while ago I lived in a place far away called, Mewni. My parent's decided to send me to earth instead of a place called, Saint Olga's. My friend Pointy Head was sent there but me and Marco saved him. Marco is one of my best friends. He's really nice and kinda brave, especially when we fight monsters. But things don't feel the same anymore. I mean we're still besties and all but the Blood Moon Ball changed everything. I guess we're suppose to be soulmate or something? Tom was furious... He thinks the dance was meant for us. I always just assumed that it was all a fluke. I don't know if I could ever like Marco like that. It's kinda just awkward now. If one of us tries to bring it up the other person either stop the other OR they shrug and walk away. The next few hours tend to be fairly silent. I like him but do I like like him, like you know? I want to like like him but could that ruin our like relationship? I feel like I am saying "like" too much. I don't want to ruin our friendship completely. So I won't say anything to Marco. "Star did you hear me?" Marco says from across the room. "Oh sorry Marco! I was thinking about, uh... The school dance!" He says, "Oh yeah! I think I am gonna go with Furgason. I hope Jackie Lynn Thomas is going... Are you going?" I sigh. Jackie. I used to not hate her until after the BMB but I never mentioned it before. Like ever. "Uh I don't know. Can I go with you?" I ask. He smiles. "Yeah that could be so awesome." Marco replies. "Oh also is it formal because most balls I go to are formal." He says, "It's a formal dance. But, it's still OK to go with friends. I have to go do my homework. See you at dinner." I yell as he walks out, "Bye Marco!" I sigh. I don't want to be friends anymore I realize. I want a boyfriend again.


Marco's pov


OK. Everything is pretty different ever since the Blood Moon Ball and Star and I are like destined to be together or something. I mean Star is awesome! She's funny, nice, and pretty, but I kinda have my heart set on Jackie. I hope she's going to the dance on Friday. It's gonna be hype! But, now Star is going with me and Furgason. We're friends though so it's all good and she'll understand everything. I just don't know what I want to wear. I could wear what I wore to the BMB. I really like that suit. I pull out my History homework and I start filling out the map and the questions. "Star! Help me with my homework." I hear a knock on the door. My Mom comes in saying, "Marco! No more cheating off of Star! It is not acceptable. But, you may get a tutor." I say, "Fine. Just get a tutor." She walks out and I finish my homework.  I pick up my phone because my ringtone, "Space Unicorn" starts to play. It is suppose to be ironic. I see who calls. It's Jackie. "Hi Jackie!" I say. "Hey Marco." She says. "What's up?" I say. She asks, "Are you going to the dance on Friday?" I almost can't breathe. I wait a couple seconds and I say, "Uh, maybe.... Why, though?" She laughs saying, "Um, I was hoping you would go with me?" I say, "Um I don't know if I'm even going. Let's talk at school tomorrow at your locker." She answers after about 30 seconds. "I don't know...." she says. I say, "Please? I am not suppose to be on my phone anyway." She answers, "Fine. By then I may have a date already." She hangs up. I can't ditch my friends. That's mean, but I really like Jackie. This is hard. I should ask Star.... Wait. Ugh. I need help.
