A Starco Story

Chapter 7

Star's POV
Ok so it's Friday and Marco and I attend school then, return home after a long day.                            "Omg Marco I am so excited for prom tonight!" I say excitedly.        "I am too Star, guess what!" "what?" I ask.                                      "I rented a limo to bring us to the school!" Marco says.                                       "Oh my god Marco that sounds awesome! what's a limo?"
"You'll see Star..."                "Anyways, I called Linda over and she agreed to go dress shopping with me before tonight." I say. "Who's Linda?" Marco asks.
"Oh she's a good friend from school"
*ding-dong*
"That must be her, bye Marco I'll be home by 6:00"
"Bye Star have fun"
•Star and Linda drive to the mall•
"So Linda, are you going with anyone to prom?" I ask.
"Actually I am, I'm going with this kid named Oskar"
"Oskar? Oh wow I remember him.." I say.
"What do you mean remember?"
"Well I kinda used to have a crush on Oskar, one day I gave him my number and he called me and we talked. We haven't talked since, so I don't think he's interested anymore."
"Wow that sounds depressing, come on let's shop to get your mind of him." Linda says cheerfully.
"You're right, now let's see which dress should I pick?"
I look around picking up dresses then putting them back down. I find excellent pieces of jewelry and shoes. I continue to look around until I spot something, a long blue silky yet sparkly dress.
"This one, this is perfect" I whisper to myself.
I wait for Linda to pick her dress out. She finally finds a pretty pink one with roses on it. We go to pay for our stuff then leave the mall.
"I love the dress you picked out" Linda says.
"Thanks I love yours too"
After a couple of minutes we return home.
"I have to go, I need to go home and get ready for the par-tay. See ya later." Linda says.
"Bye Linda!"
I walk into the house and see Marco wearing a white suit with a shiny red bow tie standing infront of a mirror mumbling to himself.
"Hey Marco I'm back" I say.
His head quickly turns towards me. "Oh hey Star, I was just um uh..."
"It's ok Marco, you can keep your weird funny business to yourself. Now I'm going upstairs to get ready, I'll be down in a couple of minutes" I say.
"Ok" Marco responds.
I skip away to my bedroom and close the door. I slip on my dress and take my pearly white shoes out of the box and put them on. I clip on a necklace then hurry to the bathroom to do my hair. How am I going to do this? I think to myself.
I know I'll get my wand! I poof some hairstyles on until I find the right one, a bun. Ok I think I'm done. I walk out of my room and down the stairs to the livingroom where Marco is.
"Hey Marco, how do I look?"
Marco looks at me and doesn't turn away. He eyes seem to be running up and down on me.
"Star... You look beautiful" he says.
I blush and respond with a "Thank you"
*Honk honk*
The limo is here come on Star.
We walk out and get inside.
"So this is what a limo is, a fancy sort of car with nothing but- is that food?"
"Yeah it's basically a party car, it can have anything you want in it.
Including food..." Marco explains.
"Oh my god is that candy?"
I grab handfuls of candy and shove them in my mouth. I stop after I notice Marco staring at me laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" I say.
"Oh sorry Star, it's just you look so cute and silly"
Did he just call me cute? Wow he thinks I'm cute, interesting. I think to myself. The limo continues driving. I look out the window and look at the trees, I imagine how magical this night is going to be...
