i honestly miss my babies a lottt hhh
they are just a bunch of anxious dorky teenagers you can't change my mind
anyways this was for valentines day but im late oops
also I tried to use 1st person with the perspectives going back and forth between Star and Marco
Hope you enjoy!(this is a slight au where star lives with her aunt Eclipsa, uncle Globgor and Meteora on earth
both 14 in this
uhhh i guess Mariposa is born earlier in this au??
basically Star and Marco wait for their respective dates but they don't show up so they hang out instead)
It was a cold night.

Star's pov:
I trembled, the strong winds really were cold tonight!
Maybe I should've listened to Eclipsa when she said to grab that coat haha...
Oh, I wonder when Oskar will be here!!
I wonder what we'll do!!
Maybe...drink hot cocoa or...make music together!I blew warm air into my hands, the steam gently floating up like whisps into the air.
It's probably getting pretty late now hmm, maybe I should ask for the time?
"H-Hey! What's the t-time?" I asked brightly, my teeth chattering a bit.
The stranger next to me looked quite alarmed but tried to recover quickly, bringing his phone out.
Marco's pov:
"U-Umm its 6:50 pm," I mumbled out awkwardly, my face flushing a bit.
"Cool! Thanks!!" the bubbly girl next to me responded.
I couldn't help but be a bit surprised at my own words.
6:50?
I wonder why Jackie's not here yet.
I checked my messages again, hoping that Alonso and Ferg weren't kidding about the date...again.Ugh. I always fall for these dumb tricks.
But...maybe she was just taking some time to get here or...maybe she got lost?
Ugh, c'mon Marco! You know it's probably just some cruel prank again! Who'd go on a date with a loser like you!
I sighed in defeat deciding to just head home, Janna would have a ball with teasing me about this later...
As I got up, I realized the girl right next to me seemed to be chattering her teeth loudly, her breath rising up into the dark sky.
Hmm...I wonder why the girl next to me didn't bring a jacket.
Did she forget? It's much too cold to be able to forget about that!
...maybe I should help her out....
Star's pov:
Ugh! Why does it have to be so cold!!!
I sneezed for like, the 30th time and just gripped my shoulders tighter, trying to stay as warm as possible.Where is he??
I checked my phone after hearing a small "beep!" arise.
Oskar 6:55 pm :
"Hey sorry dude I think you have the wrong number""I don't remember talking to anyone named Star"
I just stared at the screen, trying to gather my emotions.
What?? How did you forget that one time on Friday when I asked...
Ohhhh.....
*flashback start*
"And when you multiply $650 by 12 you get..." Ms. Skullnick droned on, a blonde teenager drifting in and out of consciousness.
"...of course I'd go with you on date Oskarrr...." she sleepily mumbled to herself, drool slipping down the edge of her mouth.
"...$7,800 per year...." Ms. Skullnick dully stated in the background.
"this Friday...sure..." she happily murmured.
*flashback end*
Oh mann, I really starred up this one!!
Why did I think he actually agreed to a date when I just daydreamed about it!!
Aghhh! Whyyy!!
I put my face into my hands, no longer caring about how cold I was. I was miserable and tired and...
Warm?
I felt a soft piece of fabric laid on me, able to see a bit of red before I spun around to see who it was.
He backed away instantly, putting his hands up quickly and blushing a bit.
"Uh-erm, I sorry- you just looked so cold and I t-thought..." he stammered quickly, his face reddening with each second.
I blinked.
I started laughing at his ridiculousness, forgetting about my mistake instantly.
He slowly joined in and placed a hand at the back of his head sheepishly."T-Thank you," I finally was able to mutter out after my fit of laughter.
Marco's pov:
"Oh no oh no this was a terrible idea wasn't it oh no no no-" I thought as the girl spun around, eying me suspiciously.
"Uh-erm, I sorry- you just looked so cold and I t-thought..." I stammered quickly, ready to be laid into my grave.
She's gonna hurt me oh noo or maybe tell on me?? Oh man, Marco, this was a terrible idea!!!
Wait...
She's....
Laughing?
Indeed, the girl in front of me was laughing high and loud, the sounds echoing in the small town.
I couldn't help but laugh along with her, the ridiculousness of it all suddenly catching up to me.
"T-Thank you," She was finally able to mutter out after her fit of laughter, wiping a tear out of her eye.
"O-Oh no problem," I flushed, rubbing the back of my neck sheepishly.
"Hey, what's your name by the way?" She asked suddenly.
"Umm Marco, Marco Diaz," I replied unsure where she was going with this.
"Nice to meet you, Marco! I'm Star Butterfly!" she brightly responded.
I could swear, there were stars twinkling in her eyes.
"Well...it looks like it's Valentine's day and we both don't have anyone to spend it with soooo..." she dragged out the word, her face growing redder and redder now.
"Do you...want to spend it together?" she finally burst out, her eyes in shock over what she had said.
