Marco's Favorite Star ➵ A Collection Of Starco One Shots

One Shot #5: Autumn Leaves

Star's P.O.V.

I giggled as I jumped into another pile of leaves. I felt bits of adrenaline and rush course through my body as I tried to catch my breath. I heard Marco groan. Uh oh.
"Star, you know I just cleaned that up! Now I have to do it all over." Marco said, frustrated, as he rubbed his temples. I rolled my eyes. I grabbed his arms.
"Oh come on, you're no fun! Loosen up a bit, would ya'?" I coaxed him. His frown seemed to soften. "But,"

"No 'buts', Mister! Now... Tag, you're it!" I yelled, looking baclk, as I ran as fast as I could. My blonde hair whipped around, some getting in my mouth, even! "C'mere you, I'm not letting you get awaaay!" Marco chased after me. I looked back. Uh oh, not good. He was gaining up on me! Apparently, looking back was a big mistake as I tripped and fell into a pile of leaves, lying on my back. I groaned in pain. "Ouch... That hurts.." I muttered. Marco rushed to me.
"Star, are you okay!? Oh my gosh, I should of never let this happen- Oh, look, your nose is bleeding, hang on, I'll get the first aid kit," He got up and rushed to get the first aid kit. I touched my lips, and saw blood. I sighed. I tasted the saltiness of my own blood.
Then, I go back to what happened moments before. I smiled, knowing Marco was always there. When I was sad, happy, hurt, confused.. Then I reminiscence the memory of the Blood Moon Ball. I felt my hearts go a shade darker.
My train of blissful thoughts were broken when I saw Marco, coming back with his first aid kit. He put up my hair, and saw a bruise on my forehead. He frowned. And instead of gettibg the band aid, he did something unexpected. He kissed my forehead, giving me an electrical shock. He refused to meer with my eyes.
"Mom says kisses makes everything better..." He muttered, before getting a wet cloth and washing the bruise, after then, drying it with a towel, and finally placing a band aid. Then he began treating all my other minor cuts. He wiped the sweat off his head, breathing a sigh of relief. "Done, finally. Be carefu-" I cut him off by grabbing his arm and pulling him into the pile of leaves with me. Our eyes locked for a moment, and before I knew it, I felt warm lips on mine. It was extrordinary. No, extraordinary was an understatement. Unfortunately, the kiss only lasted a few seconds.
"Star Bu- O-oh.. W-we'll attack a-another time." Both Marco and Star's head snapped to Ludo, who awkwardly shooed all his minions away, including himself. Marco's face turned as red as the autumn leaves.
"Uh.. I.. Well..." Marco realized the position we were in, and quickly backed up.
I cleared my throat and quickly kissed Marco on his cheek. He looked at me, his eyes widened
I looked away, obviously red.
"It.. It.. It was n-nice."
