♡STARCO ~ WHATEVER IT TAKES♡

Chapter 37: Pretend

*drama ahead*

Silence.

It was silent.

It only had snow.

It terrified him.

He was worried.

"Star? Star?! STAR?! HELLO?" He talked to the mirror like the panicky person he is.

"STAR? YOU STILL THERE? STAR!" The 14- yr. old shouted.

And out of nowhere a portal opened.

{ S t a r ' s   P O V }

I tumbled out of the portal and landed on my face. Standing up, I tried to close the portal ASAP.

Ugh it's so hard when you have a demon ex-boyfriend, pining after you.

"STAR!" I heard a person yell at me.

And suddenly, I was enveloped by a pair of arms, wrapped in soft fabric.

"U-uhm.. Marco..?"

"You were gone for too long.. let me hug you"

"O-okay.."

We stayed like that for a couple of seconds.

"Kids dinner's rea- awww... HONEY! I THINK OUR SHIP IS SAILING!!" I heard Mrs. Diaz shout. I immediately pushed Marco away.

Marco looked confused for a second, and after a short time of processing, his face was beet red. He quickly stood up and rushed downstairs.

"Did I say anything wrong?" Angie asked.

"No no! I don't think you did! I think he's just really hungry! H-how about let's go eat dinner" I led her downstairs.

"Is there something you're hiding from us? Star, you know we don't mind if you have any issues, you could always talk to us, we're here fo-"

"T-there's nothing wrong! Absolutely fine! Oh look! Dinner! Yay!" I exclaimed. I made her sit down next to Mr. Diaz.

I sat down next to Marco. Who was already eating, um.. rude much?

"O-okay???" She said confused.

We all started to eat.

"Papi, could you please pass the salt?" I asked.

Oh yeah, uhm I kinda started calling Mr. Diaz 'Papi' because he was like my second father. He's my Earth Dad. And NO, this isn't some kind of kink... dirty minded readers.

And right after I said those words.

After those 7 words..

Marco and Mr. Diaz took the salt.

"Well... this is awkward" I heard Angie said.

I looked at Marco.

I looked at Mr. Diaz.

I looked at Mrs. Diaz.

And I looked at the salt shaker.

Oh boy.

O O O

"Do you mind explaining yourselves?"

I was sweating bullets.

Okay, nothing happened between us, okay? I don't know what came onto Marco! Why did he even do that!?
