Star vs The Forces of Evil: Unforgettable Getaway

Chapter 14: Spa Day Spectacular

Day 9

It had arrived. The highly anticipated Spa Day was upon them. Assuming that everything went according to plan, Star was in for the most relaxing, cathartic day of treatment this getaway had provided yet. The lovebirds dressed themselves, had a nice breakfast, then made their way down to the hotel lobby - with a bag of possible necessities, such as an extra change of clothes and their bathing suits - finding the spa again and entering its main lobby. They entered the place with baited breath as Marco signed them both in, sitting down near some chairs and awaiting their call-in.

"I'm so excited I can barely contain myself." Star was so anxious for their spa day she was jittery all around her seat. "I wonder what they're gonna have for us!"

"I don't know, I've read that each appointment is different. Nobody gets the same treatments twice."

"Sounds mysterious!"

"I still can't believe you've never had a spa day before. You'd think that would be like a given for royalty."

Star shrugged. "Eh, it wouldn't have been as much fun back then anyway."

"Oh yeah? Why's that?"

"Because you weren't there." She smiled & leaned in for a kiss, which he happily returned.

A woman exited one of the rooms behind the front desk. "Star Butterfly & Marco Diaz? We're ready for you."

Star & Marco both stood up and started walking towards the woman, ready for their special day to begin.

They were taken into the spa room. At first glance, it appeared to have everything: mud baths, manicures & pedicures, massages...there were even hot tubs at the far end. Despite their previous hiccup with a hot tub, Star & Marco immediately became fixated on that. "Okay, so we have three hours to have ourselves the best spa day ever." Marco told her.

"Ooh, longevity! What should we do first?" She asked.

He smiled & shrugged. "You tell me. What looks good to you?"

She scanned the room, taking quick notes of how everything seemed to operate. "It all looks wonderful...I don't know, I guess we could start small & work our way up?"

"Fine by me. Let's start with the mani-pedis."

"Alright!" They were led to two chairs adjacent with each other, tilted back to lift their feet off the ground. Their shoes and socks were removed. Their hands and feet were dipped in warm water as two workers came over and began treating their hands & feet. "Wow, Marco, this water is sooooo soothing."

"Our hands and feet are going to be soft like a baby's bottom in no time." He said back.

"Don't you mean 'soft like my bottom? Or your bottom?" She unapologetically flirted with him. He went bug-eyed and blushed. "Don't pretend like you don't know what I'm talking about."

"What have I done with you?"

"You've awoken a beast, Marco. That's what you've done. Not that I'm complaining."

"Me neither." He said with an even stronger blush. While they continued talking, the workers got to work on their manicures and pedicures. Prior to their spa day they were told to choose the color of their nail polish, but both kept their choices a surprise from the other. That would change shortly. "I still can't believe all of this."

"All of what?"

"That I'm even here. Spending two weeks on vacation with the coolest girl I've ever known, someone that I love more than anything in the world, someone that I can't wait to call my wife."
