Memories and Texts(During Girl Talk)

Marco's POV

   I balled my eyes out. Star just shut me down. Harsh. Was she even my best friend?  I shook my head. No way I could think that. Star has always been my best friend, and she always will be. But... what if she no longer wants to be my friend? After she confessed her feelings to me at the party, then running off back to Mewni? There was no way she would come back normal, she would not come back as my 'mess-up twin.' I missed that. I missed how she always tried to drag me to other dimensions, how she smiled, laughed, hugged me. She was so nice, outgoing, hella friendly. I always viewed her as an open book, that was until that night.

     I was partying with my friends and Jackie. I was talking about Star, and that maybe she could take me and Jackie to other dimensions. I wanted her to feel the same excitement that me and Star experienced the entire year. But, it all disappeared when Star yelled my name. I remembered her uneasily walking towards me, her admitting that she had a crush on me. I was shocked. My brain was dead that moment. Before my brain could start functioning again, Star burst into tears and ran into her room. I followed, trying to stop her, but it was too late. When I opened the door, the magical princess left, taking any traces of her with her.

    Sitting up, I felt my heart ache. After all that, no one could recover so easily from that. I believe me and Star had the hardest recovery, actually, I feel as if we are still recovering. Three months without her... I never knew it could hurt me so badly.  Bzzzzzt! I grabbed my phone from my dresser as scrolled down to the text. "Hey Marco, wanna go out for a walk in the park?" I read. I sighed as I texted back. "Sorry Jackie, but I am feeling so well right now." I put my phone down on my pillow and plopped on my bed in despair. My phone buzzed seconds later.

"Its Star, isn't it?"

   I gulped. Jackie was catching on. I scrambled around my room, trying to think of what to say. "WhatdoIsaywhatdoIsaywhatdoIsay?" I screamed in my head. My body shook, but what for? It was a mystery for me. I couldn't keep this up. Another text popped. "Marco?" I reluctantly texted back. I needed to, I needed someone to talk to. "Yeah, its Star."

"What's wrong? Is she sick?"

"No. I just miss her."

"Miss her? Did she leave again?"

"No, not exactly."

"Marco, tell me what's going on."

"I miss my best friend, Star. The Star that was friendly, selfless, brave, kind... now she is gone. She was replaced by a 'proper' princess. I lost her."

"Its going to be alright, k? Just give her some time, you both need some"

"I feel like time isn't going to fix this."

"Trust me, it will. I have to go, later Marco."

"Bye Jackie."

    I groaned as I set my phone down. Time is going to heal this? I heard time heals, but this seems impossible to fix.  I lay on my bed in silence, thinking about what to do. Maybe time can help us? Please let it help us. I closed my eyes, and let the soothing darkness rock me to sleep.
