Star Butterfly and Marco Diaz are best friends. But soon they realise they might be more that. Slowly their friendship is falling apart. Join them as experience many twists and turns in their relationship and enjoy :)
When I woke up I realised I wasn't at the Diaz's. I was in a dark room with two torches attached to the wall. It was completely empty except from the luxurious king size bed with a red silk blanket and matching pillows. There was something about that place that was strangely familiar. Then someone entered the room. "Miss me?" I recognised the voice almost immediately.
"Tom?!" I said in disbelief.
"Hey baby," he said blowing me a kiss.
"I thought you had changed but you've only gotten worse!"
He laughed, "That's no way to treat your boyfriend!"
"Boyfriend?!" I scoffed, "We broke up!" Tom kneeled down next to me and cupped my cheek. "But I still love you." I was about to punch him but I realised I was tied up.
"Marco will come for me!" I said.
Tom groaned, "Ugh! Marco, Marco, Marco! Is that all you ever think about?"
"Well he's my best friend," I said. Thinking about him makes me smile. But then I realised how far away we were. "Yeah that must be why you kissed him. Way to keep it in the friends zone(!)" I blushed, "Wait, you know about that?"
"Yeah, I may or may not have hired someone to spy on you," Tom rubbed the back of his neck. I couldn't believe him! "Is that what this is about? You're mad that we kissed?"
"What?! No!" Tom said. He's such a bad liar.
"Look we broke up. You need to let it go," I said trying it reason with him.
"Well if I can't have you then no one else can!" He stroked my cheek. I was 'this' close to biting his finger off! "You're crazy!" I exclaimed.
"Crazy about yoooouuuuuu!" He sung as he shut the door. God I hate him so much! And to think I actually gave him a second chance! I was so furious! I went and sat on the bed huffing angrily. Then I realised how soft the bed was. It felt like I was lying on feathers. It was so comfy that I instantly fell asleep.
Tom's POV (bet you weren't expecting that!)
I went to check on Star. She was sleeping like a beautiful devil. I love her so much. Sure I've made a few mistakes along the way but really I'm just a guy wanting to be with the girl he loves. But she loves her precious Marco(!) Why can't she see that he's a meek little Earthling and I'm an all powerful demon! No matter how hard I try she still won't listen. So I'm just going to have to make her.
I went into the kitchen. There was one cabinet that was locked up with more padlocks that you could imagine! That was the cabinet that I needed. I burned the padlocks with my eyes. Inside were many potions and vials filled with many horrific things but I only needed one. It was a ruby red vial.

When I opened it a puff of red smoke floated into the air taking the shape of a skull. After a few seconds it evaporated. I took out a dainty china teacup and filled it to the rim with boiling water. Then I added in three drops from the vial. Eventually the whole drink became a pale red with specks of iridescent red glitter. "Perfect!" I said to myself happily.
I went to the room where I was keeping Star. She was still sleeping so I shook her lightly. She slowly stirred. "Marco?" She said slurred. I mentally cried with anger. Why can't she forget him?!
"No it's me," I said softly wanting to make a good impression.
She rubbed her eyes, "Oh that's a shame!" I miraculously managed to keep myself from rolling my eyes because I had to be nice if I wanted this plan to work. "I've got you a little something," I said giving her the drink on silver platter. Her lips curved upwards slightly. Technically that counts as a smile! I had a good feeling that my plan was going to work! "Oh thanks," she said taking the drink. "Let me know if you need anything," I said getting up.
"Yep, will do," Star said obviously more interested in the drink than me. I left the room but hid behind the door to see what would happen.
Star's POV
I know I'm not meant to like him but when I saw the drink I remembered how hungry I was. And it looked so appealing. It warmed my fingertips as I bought the cup to my mouth. I took a little sip. It tasted sweet but not sickly sweet. It was absolutely perfect. I didn't know Tom could make drinks. It sent a tingly sensation through my whole body and filled me with warmth. I had to have more. With each sip I took I grew more fonder and Tom and his drink making skills. In less than a minute I had finished the whole cup. I sighed with happiness and satisfaction.
But then I got a hit by an overwhelming wave of pain in my head. "Agh!" I exclaimed putting a hand to my forehead. Soon the pain got so bad that I couldn't even hold the cup. It slipped out of my hand and smashed onto the floor. The pain increased, it got so unbearable that I eventually passed out.
Tom's POV
I heard something break and entered the room. It was the China cup. My plan had worked perfectly. Star had taken the bait and was now unconscious.
What do you think was inside they vial? Poison maybe? I know but you're gonna have to guess until the next part 😝
