This story began in Season One, so this setting is a few months after her arrival on earth. (A/N, I wrote this many MANY years ago when I was a kid and as I reread this as an adult, I realize that the dialogue is pretty terrible💀But the overall story I think was still good for the time it was made so take that as you will lol)

3rd Person POV

       It was a relatively cool day in June, considering California weather usually boils in the summer. Marco woke up with the sun's beams of light filling his room and, eventually, his eyes. He hopped out of bed and went down stairs, but didn't find his mom cooking breakfast like she normally would. Then, he saw a note on the fridge.

       Dear Marco and Star. As you both know, we took a trip to the Bahamas for our anniversary and I plan to give your mother the perfect present. I will not say on this note just in case your mother sees this. Watch over the house and continue enjoying your summer vacation. ~Padre

Marco's POV

       Oh, yea. I forgot they went to the Bahamas. My dad had already told me his gift. It was the cliche type. Chocolate and flowers and a bracelet she had wanted for a long time. Though those are things every man on earth has given to their wife, I think they would enjoy the trip more than the gifts. Once I read the note, I started to make breakfast. I don't mean to brag, but I make some mean pancakes.

Star runs downstairs

"Morning, Marco. Wheres Mr. and Mrs. Diaz?" Star said. I didn't expect her to be up so early, but who could blame the smell of Marco's famous pancakes?

"They went on their trip, remember?" I reply.

"Oh, yea. Wait, if they're gone, then its just us!" She said, which couldn't be more obvious.

"Duh, what about it?"

       "We can do what ever we want! I got some great ideas in mind. Lets go!" She grabbed my arm and began racing towards the door, on her way to who knows where. As much as I would love to go to some horrible adventure, I stopped Star.

        "Wait, Star. Mom and Dad had strict rules. We can't do anything we want, well, anything that's not legal. He gave us money to go to the store any time we run out of food. We can go out then. After that, we can do what you want to do."

       Star solemnly nodded her head. Her energetic behavior wasn't used to being in the house constantly, but who could blame her?

       "But hey, I made breakfast." Stars disappointed face turns into a gleaming face of joy. She raced towards the stove, observing the pancakes being cooked as her eyes focused. After that, we ate our breakfast and went to the store to get our food.

Star's POV

       That breakfast was AMAZING. He always makes the best pancakes. Not only pancakes, but a lot of other food he's made always make my day, especially his nachos. After I finished, I went to get a drink from the fridge, which was empty.

"Empty already?" I asked Marco as he was enjoying his own food.

       "Huh, I guess so. I used a lot of ingredients to make the pancakes. I guess we'll go out." Once he finished, we made our way to grocery store, and let me tell you, Earth grocery stores are magic in itself!

       "Lets split up and get these items on the list. Dad also gave us some money to buy at least two things for ourselves so get whatever you want as long as its two items!" Marco loves to play by the rules, but I already had my eyes on two prizes.
