Time skip to Saturday

Marco's POV

I get ready for my date. I feel excited. I get my essentials like cologne, my comb, handsanitizer, tissue paper, etc.

I get my bag and I head out.

I put on my headphones and listen to music

"Making my way downtown, walking fast, faces past and I'm homebound. La la la la la la" I sang.

When I arrived at the ice rink, Jackie immediately saw me and walked towards me.

"You look stunning" I complimented her.

She kissed my cheek.

"You look handsome" She winked at me. She held my hand and we went inside the rink. We rented ice skates.

"Here let me help you" I tied her shoelaces. "Okay then" She smiled. People started looking at us.

"Aww what a cute couple" I didn't really mind them.

She held my hand again and led me into the actual ice rink. She guided me for a bit until I got the hang of it.

"You're really good at this" I told her. She smiled.

"I was self-taught" She shrugged.

She did a few tricks. I just watched her. She's so graceful. The way her hair follows when she lands back into the ice. Her teal eyes focused on what she's doing. Her cute freckles.

I never noticed those.

"Marco, dude are you okay?!" She rushed to me. I tripped and fell on my butt.

It was cold.

"Y-yeah! I'm a-okay!" I stood back up. She giggled. "Whatever safe kid" just now... did I actually like being called safe kid? But why?

After ice skating, we went to this abandoned carnival. There was these huge rides. They looked so vintage.

"Let's go to the ferris wheel" She held my hand and we climbed up the ferris wheel.

The view was amazing.

I felt like a king.

"Y'know, I've always wished I ruled a kingdom" I chuckled.

"You want to be king? Of what?" She looked at me.

"Anything to be honest" I smiled.

She laid her head against my chest and wrapped her arms around my waist.

"Me too, I'd like to be queen though" she said.

I wrapped my arm around her shoulder.

"I don't even care if it's hard being royalty. I just want the power and control" I glanced at her.

She giggled.

Jackie's POV

never have I felt this way before.

This cozy.

This protected.

Not even once.

"I know it's hard to believe but I actually want to be queen bee for echo creek" I sighed.

"Yeah but there's Brittney. In my opinion, you would make a great queen bee" he smiled. Why is he being so sweet.

"Really?" I pulled away and looked at him.

"Yeah" He smiled once more.

"Marco, I didn't actually think you would accept this date. I thought you liked Star and not me" she looked away.

"Are you kidding? Why would I like Star? She's my best friend" he sounded serious. I looked at him.

I lean in and kissed him quick.

His lips were soft

"J-jackie" he was surprised.

"Marco I like you. I don't think you even know it" I blushed.

"I-I don't know what to say" he looked embarassed.

"Then don't speak" I whispered and leaned in.

I kissed him again. Sparks were flying.

He returned the kiss.

I pulled away.

He looked at me. We said nothing. It was silent.

It felt right.

At least for me.

"You're a really good kisser" he chuckled.

"Thanks" I smiled.

***

He escorted me home. We were at the doorstep.

"Thanks for today, I had fun" I said to him. "Me too" he replied. I gave him a peck on his lips.

"See you on monday, Diaz" I opened my door.

"See you too, Jackie" He waved me goodbye.

And I went to my room.

A/N

Sorry to ruin your day. My day is ruined too okay?

A very special family member just died. So I had time writing something Starco but then I ended up writing Jarco.

Please forgive me.
