Star was floating in a vast space of nothingness; she wore nothing, felt nothing, and saw nothing. Everything around her was a grey blur, she could hardly see anything. She was shook out of a daze, and wondered where the hell she was.
She flailed around helplessly and started calling for help, "Hello?! Is Anyone Here?! Can someone please tell me where I am?! Helloooooooo?"

Silence was the only answer given to her.

Star thought she was in those 'lucid dreams' Marco rants about a lot. Marco.... "No!" She shouted to herself, she slapped a hand to her mouth and blushed, later realizing it was stupid to do so since she was alone. She yelled "Don't think about Marco. Think about... Mewni!" She closed her eyes and started imagining she was in Mewni, eating fresh cob corn while holding her mother's hand at the age of 10, she dreamed of whispering what her dad was supposed to be saying in his father's ears during one of his "Important-ish king speeches."

She opened her eyes and saw herself in Mewni, looking down upon the balcony on the tallest tower, the air was fresh from up there, the only area in the palace that didn't reek of perfume or scented candles that hurt her nose, she touched the walls, coarse and solid, and she even felt like she was in Mewni too. She blinked once more, and then she was transported to another area. It was the Clinic, the Clinic in Mewni of course; the roof had paintings of events that happened that benefitted the healers of Mewni. She didn't necessarily know who was on those paintings, and why it was so important.
She looked down on her seat before even noticing that she was sitting, she was wearing her 'special occasion' Princess Gown, but it was tattered and dirty, she stared at the part of the gown was splattered in monster blood, a stinging pain was in her arm, there was a line of teeth on it, shark teeth, it wasn't bleeding, but looking at it made her want to vomit. She looked at a bandage on her left shoulder.

"Wait... I remember this..." She muttered silently trying to remember if any of this rang a bell.
Soon enough, it did, but the memory changed so fast she forgot what it was again. She was skipping along the muddy road of Mewni; her dress was now fixed, only a little dirty from all the mud. Two guards were at her side, holding sharp halberds made of metal. The guards soon enough went off for a small cup of coffee and left Star to wander around on their own.
Star didn't mind, Moon wouldn't have. The princess skipped along a dark alley way, until she saw a beggar wrapped in a dirty ragged cloth, he stared at her in disgust, and Star began to feel uneasy around him. She put her focus back on the alley, only to see that two reptilian monsters leaning their backs against the brick walls across each other were talking to each other at the end of it. The two cocked their heads towards her and gave her a devilish smile.

Star felt like running, she could take both of the on, but it seemed like they would call the cops on her, so she walked out of the alley slowly, until a big buff Mewman-looking Monster with comically large muscles stood in her path.
"That's it." She muttered and abruptly jumped upwards and kicked the monster in the face. The lizards in the corridor pulled out small daggers and hissed, Star knocked the muscular guy out pretty quickly, and the beggar's eyes were still focused menacingly on her. There was a splatter of Monster Blood on her dress that came from the knocked out muscular guy, before she realized that it was the same splatter from the last scene, the two lizards holding knives rushed towards her, she landed on the monster, the two jabbed the edge of their steel blades to her and she ducked, then side kicked their legs, they fell down and Star started running out of the alleyway.

Star looked back and saw the old hobo standing up holding a small pipe in his left hand. The hobo placed something into the pipe and placed the end of the pipe to his mouth, she turned to the left, but the man blew on the pipe and a dart flew straight to her shoulder. She gasped, then kept running, a monster made of mud popped out from a window and swung at her, she ducked, but a lizard came from another window and bit her arm, she whacked his head and the lizard pulled out and screamed, she looked at her arm as she continued to run, there were teeth embedded on her arm in a curved line, a few of them flew off as she ran.

Star's gut began to hurt; she pulled out the dart on her shoulder and threw it to the mud below her. She got out of the alley, and flew straight into the arms of a guard, the guard caught her, but she slipped and fell into the gravel pathway.
Then there was darkness once more.

Star's eyes fluttered open; she was in her room, wearing her normal attire. The room strangely smelled of male semen, only now did she know what it smelled like. She let out a hefty groan and glanced to her left, there was Marco, with his red jacket and flustered expression. His arms were crossed and his frown was crooked like a Leader amidst a crowd that wants to pull his throat out, desperately trying to keep a straight face.

"It was awfully stupid of you to b-barge in like that," Said Marco, he shifted a little forwards and Star just stared at him, finally, she muttered,

"I don't know what came over me, honest," Ha, like Marco would fall for that again.

"You were the one jacking off just a few minutes after came back from... choorch," replied Star.

"Church."

"Wh-Whatever."

Marco raised an eyebrow and became silent, he heaved a sigh and loosened her expression, Star sat up and wanted to speak first, but Marco quickly retorted, "I'm almost positive you were wearing that shit because you wanted to lure me in to having sex with you? Well I'm not falling for your games Butterfly. Have you seriously stooped that low Star?" Star was surprised; Marco saw that she looked a little broken after he said it.

There was an awkward silence Star looked down, ashamed of herself, ashamed of the person she had become, Marco's crooked frown came back and he suddenly wanted to admit something badly, but Marco knew better as not to say it. "Actually," Oh no, here he goes, "It um, I actually, if I'm b-being completely honest with myself I..."

Marco gulped as Star's shining blue eyes flew up and looked up at him, she brushed away the hair on her face and listened, "I-I actually kind of... sort of... liked it?..." Star's face was dark red; Marco trembled and almost fell off his seat. Soon enough Star realized how close she was to him and shifted backwards suddenly. "I-I did too."

"W-Well, of course you did. Y-You were the dummy doing it."

"Y-Yeah, I guess you're right about that." Star chuckled lightly. Marco looked left and right and thought about something to say or to do, but his mind was empty.

There was a deafening silence orange light came from the windows and shone in different places of the large room, it was like this for a while until Star said, "You were thinking about me while you were m-masturbating in the bathroom, weren't you?" Star knew it was a bold yet stupid thing to say, but she did not care anymore. Marco did the obvious thing, almost lose it, he blushed so hard his head would have popped... That doesn't sound right... Even I'm getting doozied just telling this!

Marco rubbed the back of his head nervously and tried to laugh off the tension. Soon enough, he grew tired and looked down, refusing to look back into Star's blue eyes. Star smirked and said, "You were pretty loud... It wasn't so hard to make out." Marco nodded silently, he refused to say anything. "It was kind of... kind of sexy..." muttered Star, Marco nodded again.

Star felt the awkwardness of the situation, and became silent as well. She stared downwards and felt the urge to speak again. This silence continued on for a few minutes, the silence was pretty much deafening.

"I really hate this feeling." Marco broke the silence, Star quickly looked up at him, "I... don't know what it's called, but I really, really hate it..." Marco sat up and looked to the left, "But I just can't help but crave for it..."

"What's it called?"

Silence...

Marco heaved a heavy sigh, "It's not love... It's-"

"Better than love?"

Marco immediately blushed a light pink, and nodded. Star felt like smiling, but her head was wrapped up in a ton of things, and a bigger ton of intentions.

"I feel it too, Marco.  More for you than any other person in my life."

A smile came from Marco, although he was quite unsure of whether that were positive or negative given the current situation.  It wasn't love, or at least not yet.

Marco had no idea what to say, he was completely flustered. His cheeks were pink and his smile was all over the place. Star giggled, and Marco's heart melted.

"I think... I think we can make this work without... Without letting our relationship change." Muttered Marco,

"Huh?" Star was first confused, and then doubtful, "And how's that?"

"We can still be friends, except we'd do... Things couples or... Partners do to each other in private..." Explained Marco, "Like... S-sex possibly... Or... You know, the things you've been trying to make me do to you."

Star's head tilted in confusion, "You mean like, Friends and Lovers?"

"Friends with benefits." Marco's head was going haywire at this point. "Something like that."

Star thought about it for a while, and eventually agreed. "Deal. Anything to get that cock of yours~" Marco's eyes became bloodshot and he fell down from his seat, "I-I MEAN! To Um... Get rid of the.. The feeling thats been bothering us..."

The boy heaved a sigh of relief, it was almost his 100th sigh this entire week.
He extended his hand, "Deal?" Star smiled and heavily tugged his hand, making Marco fly up to her bed. "W-Woah!!"
Marco fell next to the bed with her, and Star suddenly climbed on top of him until she was facing him, "Deal." And their lips connected. I could get used to this new sexy Star... Thought Marco, and their night as being just friends was over.

Time for a change.

FINALLY!!!! Oh my god did I miss this book.

The one-shot book is actually getting really delayed because of this single chapter, the first draft was bad and boring, the second was just the same only longer, and this one finally got me writing again. Only that this one was supposed to have more of what happened to Moon, but I'm gonna leave all of the next chapter to her.

Putang ina.
