Chapter 7
I paced around my room thinking about what I just did. Star wrote down her personal thoughts and I just invaded them. And the weirdest part is that I don't just feel guilt. I feel something unexplainable. I don't know. This is not the time to worry about what else you feel, this is a time to think about what you just did. Calm down. It's not like she still has a crush on me, and I only found an old secret. I didn't read the whole thing. Maybe you should just confront Star. No! Are you crazy, Diaz? Star can never find out! Why don't you just hint that you know? Yeah!
I walk across the hall to Star's room. I was about to knock when I heard her on her mirror. See was yelling. You better leave, before you make this worse. No. This could be important.
"No! You can't make me marry and come back! She is still alive. She is queen till she dies! You said mom is still queen if she fights in battle. She still calls the shots, plus being king you have the right to as well! And if she did dies, can't you still rule? And if I do come back, why do I need a king?" Star yelled.
"You know the rules. Kings aren't in as much of a command as the queen. If your mother, unfortunately, gets killed, I'm not in power. I'm a second opinion. You need to find a king soon. Your deadline is closer than we planned. If you don't, I'm afraid, your mother and I will find one for you. Find one or not, you will come back to Mewni. I've got to go. Time is ticking." King Butterfly's voice said. I heard the call end.
"Ugh." Star moaned. "You finally let go of your feelings and your parents tell you, sorry! Grab back on to them. And if even if I start to have a crush on someone, why get married now. That will make some feel weird. If I don't find someone they'll probably pair me with some posh prince." She slammed the wall. "Why couldn't I be a Earth girl? They have it all." She cried. I heard her fall onto her bed. "Just put make a fake smile, and nobody will ask. Like what they taught you in queen school. I hate lying, but I don't have a choice." I heard her walk to the door. Run, Diaz! Go to your room!
I run to the door of my room and hold the door open like I was just leaving. She walked out with a smile plastered on her face.
"Hey, Star!" I call to her.
"Hi, Marco!" She said in a fake sweet voice.
"You want to go hang out?"
"No thanks." She declined.
"Okay. Anything wrong?" I asked.
"No. Why would you ask?" She's onto me.
"No reason. I just heard yelling coming from your room." I admitted.
"Don't worry. I was just trying new spells." She lied. I have to admit, she was really good at lying. If I didn't eavesdrop, I would have believed her.
"Okay. I'm glad your back Star." I hugged her.
"Me, too." She hugged back. Than she walked down the stairs and out of the house, holding her wand and dimensional scissors.
