It's Complicated (Starco)

Chapter 8: He's Just Some Jerk!

Star's P.O.V.

When Marco didn't arrive at school on Monday, I was a bit worried. It was one thing to ignore me, but it was another to completely miss school. I had called him as many times as possible. I had texted him. But no matter what I did, it seemed like Marco wasn't interested in anything I had to say.

Why wasn't Marco here? It was Tuesday and he still didn't show up.  I wanted to talk with him.. About the party. Yeah, he kissed me and that wasn't cool but it got me thinking. I'd never thought about liking Marco in "that" way. It wasn't that I was being rude and rejecting him, I just never expanded my horizons enough to realize that I might've actually liked Marco Diaz. Did I feel a spark when our lips touched? A part of me wanted to say yes, but the other part of me said, "No, Star. This is crazy, he's just some jerk!" Most of me wanted to believe that he didn't care about me, but the curious  side of me said to investigate. Since Marco was absent, I couldn't exactly figure out anything. At one point, I thought I might have been going insane.  During my free period, I decided to hopelesssly call him.

"Hello?" 

It was actually him. He answered! 

"Marco, where have you been I really ne-"

".. Just stop calling me, okay?"

"What?"

"Star, please just stop."

"But I've been so worried and I just-"

"..It doesn't matter."

"What doesn't matter?"

"Me. Everything"

"Don't say that."

"I have to go."

"Marco, wait, please!"

The call ended.

What was his problem? All I wanted to do was talk and it seemed like he was shutting me out. I thought he liked me, and after awhile of thinking, I might've like him back. I knew more about him then probably anyone. I knew what made him vulnerable and what made him laugh or cry. I thought that there was another side to him, a genuine side. After calculus, I decided it would be best to confront him myself. I went over to Jackie and Janna. I assumed they were friends or at least friendly towards each other. With two popular idiots as my last resort, unwillingly, I gave it a shot. 

"Hi, I'm Star Butterfly. I just-"

.. Yeah, we know who you are" laughed Janna. "Look, Marco's dating Jackie. "

"Oh uh okay, but I just needed to know where he lives"

"But like, why?"

"Uh, uhm.."

"What was that?" Janna sneered. 

"Homework assignment!" I blurted.

They shrugged. I guess that's all the proof they needed because they grabbed my arm and wrote Marco's address on the back of my hand. I had my plan. After school, I was going to Marco Diaz's house.
