13 days passed by quick. Star and Marco's relationship have blossomed into a beautiful experience they've had. Everyone talked about it. Some were happy for them. And some were mad.

But two specific people were beyond furious and jealous.

It was finally the day. Everyone was excited. It was gut trembling for them. The fact that a lot of people would watch you from a distance made them have butterflies.

Nevertheless, the show must go on.

It was also the day of love. Students, left to right were giving gifts to their special someone. Marco however.. had other plans.

Star was oblivious. She didn't even realize it was already Valentine's day.

Anyways, the whole cast were there. Marco was there, Daniel was there, Jackie was there, the director, the whole staff and crew, the props team. Everyone!

And the audience was filled with almost every student in the campus.

Marco felt really anxious and was upset because Jackie was there. Jackie looked overjoyed. Star was no where to be seen.

Oh wait- Star was serving flap jacks in a booth.. it's kinda like a tradition for Echo creek high to have a Valentine's Day festival. (Inspiration from Nisekoi! Let me know if you also know that anime! #teamChitoge)

As I was flipping flap jacks, my mind drifted off to the play. I guess my day dreams of me and Marco being the Beauty and Beast wouldn't come true. I sighed. Flipping the flap jack over.

I serve the flap jacks. I fake a smile while serving them. I was alone in my booth. I look at the time.

"It's almost show time" I sighed once more. Is this where my life leads to? Flipping flap jacks?

"Hey... why the long face?" Star fan asks me. "Nothing.. I'm fine" I give her a flap jack.

"Oh... you can always tell me" she said to me. "Nothing... it's nothing really" I fake a smile. "Okay" she walked away.

I look back to what I'm cooking. I place the batter and wrote 'Starco'. I sighed.

I'm really nervous. I don't want to kiss Jackie. I wish it was Star.

"30 minutes till showtime people!" A student announced.

"Marco" I heard a familiar voice say.

I turn to see Jackie. She fixed her hair. She had Makeup and all. And the dress.

"What do you think?" She asks.

"Have you seen Star?" I ask her. Dodging her question. She frowned. "U-uhm.. No" she said. Her voice frail.

"Okay... I'll just be in my costume" I said walking away. I went to my dresser and put on my costume. Had my makeup done. And also had my hair fixed.
