School Dance - Clown Séance

Bon Bon the Birthday Clown... with a twist...

Today was the day. The day of the school dance. Star and Marco were helping out with the decorations in the gymnasium. Star and Marco had decided to go together, so they weren't lonely (and so that Marco's teeth wouldn't fall out, as Star believed)

"So, Marco. Excited for the dance...?" Star asked happily.

"Uh... yeah... just wish I'd asked out Jackie before she got a date..." Marco sighed.

"It's okay! You have me! Your best friend!"

"Yeah, that's true. Isn't it weird for us to be going together, though...? We're best friends like you said..."

"What? Pffft! Nah. We're just making sure we don't look like idiots is all, like you said.... and besides, we don't want to be loners after all..."

"Fair point... But do we really need to go to this dance...? Is there even a point?" Marco asked.

"Marco if we're not here, then we'd look like losers... we gotta at least show up..."

"Okay, Okay!"

The two prepared the bunting. Suddenly, Janna arrived.

"Heya, Star. You excited for the dead clown séance tonight...?" Janna asked.

"Sorry, Janna, but me and Marco said we'd go to the dance tonight..." Star told her.

"You and Marco? Isn't a séance more cool though...?"

Star gave Janna a look that told her everything.

"Oooohhhh... cool. I get it. We just totally telepathically communicated just then..." Janna said bewildered.

"What are you guys telepathically communicating?" Marco asked.

"Nothing! Nothing! Don't worry about it, Marco! Go and sort out the punch, would you?" Star asked frantically.

"Okay...?" He said confused.

Marco went off the put batteries in the punch fountain, leaving Janna and Star alone.

"This is totally your shot, Star. You can tell him about your little feelings tonight..." Janna suggested.

"But- Pshhh, nah! No need!" Star waffled.

"Star. This is your chance. You and Marco are basically going on a date..."

"D-Don't say it like that, Janna! It's embarrassing..." Star stammered,

"C'mon. I'll do the séance and you can show up after you guys make out in the bushes to see Bon Bon"

"JANNA ORDONIA!" Star gasped.

"What's... going on here?" Marco asked.

"Nothing! N-Nothing at all!" Star gasped.

Marco eyed them suspiciously.

"Let's go, Star. We have to get ready..." Marco said as he grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the gymnasium.

...

At home, Star and Marco got their clothes ready for the dance. Star rushes downstairs wearing a very pretty long pink dress. It was all glittery and it looked amazing.

"Wow, Star... you look amazing!" Mrs Diaz said to her.

"Thanks, Mrs. D! I hope Marco thinks the same way..."

She quickly covered her mouth and went deep red.

"Why is that, Star?" Mrs Diaz asked teasingly.

"Wha?! No! Not like that, silly!" She sputtered.
