And here we have the final chapter of this story of mine, I hope everyone who read it enjoyed.

allen Vth: Well, like I said, it was supposed to be a part of the chapter before it before I made a mistake.

imhere4svtfoe: Oh, it's going to be awkward all right.

Star snapped her head up, to see young Moon staring at them, before jumping to her feet and pulling Marco up as well. "Oh, I didn't see you there … you must be … Moon." Star paused then laughed. "I mean of course you're Moon, I knew that, I just … that's your name and all so I guess … hi Moon?"

Moon was a little timid, trying not to say something, or ask something that might mess with the timeline. "And you must be the one everyone is calling Romance Advice Tree."

Marco held back a laugh as Star pouted. "Yeah, that's … not my name."

"Uh … okay … I mean I shouldn't really stay here much longer so-"

"Yeah!" Marco chimed in. "Yeah, let's not push our luck."

"Right." Moon gripped her wand and took a deep breath as she held it into the air. "Tempricico Returnious Chrono Rewind!"

Another bright light appeared, only this time, it only enveloped Moon; leaving Marco in the time period where he belonged. "Well I'm glad that's over." Marco said as he stretched his arms. "I was worried that I might cause some damage to the time stream."

"Romance Advice Tree?" Star asked as she leered at him.

"Oh, come on!" He shot back. "That was the name you told them the last time you went into the past!"

Star crossed her arms and pouted again. "We need to stop messing with time."

"You can say that again." Marco replied. "I mean can you imagine if your parents had named you Romance Advice Tree?"

"I'd rather not."

"But it would have been so funny, you walk into school for your first day of class and say, 'Hi, my name is Romance Advice Tree, and I'm a magical princess from another dimension!'"

"Please don't."

"And then everyone just stares at you all confused and what not, unsure if you're being serious or just pulling their leg."

"Can we change the topic? Please?"

"Oh sure, how about why did you send me into the past to begin with?"

Star silently looked away as she sucked in her lips. "Hmmmmmm …"

"Were you trying to change something? Like … wait, did this have anything to do with your confession?"

"WHAT? No, why would I do that?" She asked as she played with her wand. "I mean that would be totally irresponsible of me, and who knows how that would have affected my battle with Toffee and what not."

Marco continued to look at her suspiciously. "Okay, look, I was practicing and didn't know what it did, I mean it's not like all the spells in those notes are perfect or anything."

Marco sighed and shook his head. "I guess that makes sense, but maybe it's time to put those notes away. You know, before something worse happens?"

"What could be worse than hearing about how my mom flirted with my crush?"

"You want to find out?'

Star shook her head. "Good point."

"Are we interrupting anything?" River asked as he stood at the doorway. Both Star and Marco looked over to see River and Moon looking at them, waiting for them to notice their presence.

"MOM! DAD!" Star announced.

"Hi River, hi Moon." Marco greeted nervously.

"Hello Marco." River greeted. "Good to see you again."

"Likewise." Marco replied. "I … uh …"

There was a long awkward silence among them as River and Moon shared a look. "I … it was nice … to have met you." Said Moon.

"Yeah … it was." Marco replied.

"Well … we have other things that need taking care of." Moon said as she walked out of the room.

"Yes, there is still much work to do after the battle for Mewni." River said as he followed.

Soon enough, both Star and Marco were left alone in the room as another awkward silence took over.

"I guess … we do need to talk about … some things." Marco began.

Star nervously kicked at the ground as she tried to avoid Marco's eyes. "I … I guess you're right … where do we start though?"

"How about … with I don't know."

Star giggled but as soon as she opened her eyes again she saw that Marco wasn't laughing. "Wait, that wasn't a joke?"

"No … it wasn't." He replied. "It's … my answer, I guess. I don't know how I feel about you because … it never really crossed my mind; sure I like you and all that but … it never really occurred to me that I could think about you as more than just a friend." Marco let out a sigh and shook his head. "But that's all irrelevant right now, I'm dating Jackie and it's not like I'm not in love with her anymore."

"I figured."

"Yeah so … I can't give you an answer … I'm sorry."

"It's okay Marco." Star began as she smiled weakly. "I … didn't tell you because I thought we could be together."

"So then … we just go back to the way things were?"

"If you want to."

Marco nodded as he looked away. "Yeah, let's … just pretend that never happened."

Star looked at him as she felt a cold feeling form in her gut. "Yeah … just like song day."

"Yeah … just like song day."

Star smiled and gave Marco two thumbs up. "Great!"

"Great!" Marco replied as he also gave her two thumbs up.

"Great!" Star put her hands down and walked out of the room.

When she was well out of earshot, Marco turned back around and looked at the doorway where Star left before letting out a sad sigh. "Great."

And that is the end of this story … yeah … that's how it ends … what? I wrote this before the third season started, what did you expect would happen? I was more focused on my other story that is currently going on (even though it turns out that both of them are falling short) so I wasn't focused on making Starco happen in this one. In all honesty, I was trying to make it so that this story could have still been cannon if I had managed to post it before season three fully started, but I wasn't able to make it fast enough so … here you go. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to get the other story updated.

Enjoy your day and please leave your tears in the collection bucket.
