I OWN NOTHING. STAR VS THE FORCES OF EVIL IS OWNED BY DISNEY. THIS IS A FAN PROJECT AND NOTHING MORE. ALSO, THE REASON I DIDN'T CALL THIS "LOVE IN THE LAKE" IS BECAUSE THERE'S ONLY ONE CHAPTER WITH LEGIT LAKE LOVE IN IT AND I DIDN'T WANT TO BE PREDICTABLE. ENJOY!

It was a typical day at school for Star butterfly. Fight monsters, brush up on magic lessons(though only glossaric was willing to put effort into it), and trying to stay awake threw history class, just a typical school day. After nearly blowing up the science lab, the school bell rang.

"Who hoo, see you on Monday." Star said as she hopped up and ran out the door.

Star was zooming through the street, excited for the weekend. She finally made it back home, only to see she beat Marco home, again. She frowned as she realized what that meant, Jackie. Star was getting more and more annoyed and saddened from this. It's not that he wasn't happy that Marco finally got the girl he's been crushing on for years(though that might be more creepy than romantic) she was starting to get lonely from not having him around to be with her. She knew it would be best for her to get over her crush on him, but she couldn't help but have feelings for him, especially after everything they've been through. She wished she at least had something new in her social life to help compensate the quiet alone nights.

Marco finally arrived, lavender lip stick on his right cheek.

"Hey star, what's up?" Marco asked grinning

"You got alittle something right here." Star said as she gestured to his cheek.

"Oh, thanks." Marco said as he wiped Jackie's lip stick off

"So, you and Jackie got plans tonight?" Star asked half deadpan

"Yah, were heading to the movies tonight, Jackie got a new moped." Marco explained

"Cool, real cool." Star said as she turned on the tv

"Look star, I'm sorry I haven't been hanging with you for a while. Tell you what, how about we do something. Next week, just you and me." Marco said

"I'd love that." Star said as she smiled and hugged Marco until she heard an alarm go off

Marco then checked his watch

"Oh, I gotta get ready for tonight, see you later Star." Marco said as he ran upstairs

"Okay, see you later." Star said in a very bummed way

While she would would usually blast narwhals at giraffe monsters to feel better, she just didn't have it in her to fight them without Marco. Instead, she grabbed some of Marco's leftover nachos from the kitchen and just decided to watch tv.

Several hours later

Star was napping on the couch, laying on her back while hanging upside down until she heard the door open. To her semi annoyance, it was Jackie.

"What up Star." Jackie said

"Oh, hey Jackie." Star said, not really moving

"Is Marco ready yet?" Jackie asked

"I don't know, he hasn't come down since he got home." Star said, not really looking at Jackie

"I just hope he doesn't pick another mindless action movie." Jackie said

"But those are the best kinds of movies, all fun and no learning." Star retorted

"Okay, but I was more in the mood for something like comedy or…romance." Jackie said

This response made Star blush and tighten her fist, just as Marco came down in his usual attire, say for a darker red jacket and combed hair.

"Looking good Marco." Jackie said

"Thanks Jackie, one on let's go." Marco said as the two walked out

"See yah star." Marco said as he waved goodbye and the two were out

"Uuuuhhhhhhh, now what do I do." Star moaned

She was sick of those two together, it was making things more lonely around here, even with a basket of laser puppies running around. But Star was sick of just sitting around and decided to go ride her bike around before it got dark. She put on her helmet and pads and started peddling around. It was quiet for a Friday night, which was kind of weird given she's been used to monster attacks at this time, but after Ludo got his new army of rats and spiders she hadn't seen the old crew anymore. Even freaks trying to kill her would be more fun than moping like this. While thinking over, star suddenly realized she was now a few miles from home . She drove off course during her train of thought. She was about to turn around and head back home but was halted by a pothole that caused her to flip over and tumble off the side of the road. She rolled over until she was stopped by a shrub. She had a few cuts and bruises but otherwise she was fine. When she sat up she could see a sliver of light coming from the other side of some huge bushes. She struggled to get through them because of how this it all was, but she finally made it.

To her surprise, it was a huge lake with a huge tree route cutting off a part of it that she as now like a hot spring. It was like an all natural pool and hot tub. Star looked around and saw that the whole lake was obscure by a ring of huge trees and bushes, completely unseen by anyone. Star decided to check out the spring first. She slipped off her boots and sipped her toes in the spring. While fairly hot at first, she let the feeling sink in before dipping both legs into the spring. It was very cozy and deep as she couldn't feel the bottom of the spring. She laid down on her back and just let the warmth of the spring relax her feet.

She almost feel asleep until she heard a bird chirping. She took her feet out and dipped her finger in the spring.

"Uhhh, why didn't I bring a suit, oh yah I didn't know this existed before." Star said out loud

She dipped her hand in and swam it around until an idea popped in her head.

"If I don't have a suit, then I'll just have to go with the next best thing." Star thought with a coy smirk

Star looked around to make absolute sure that no one was around or that there was a chance that anyone could see her through the thick bushes. Once the made sure the coast was clear, she threw of her devil horn headband.

She followed this up by unzipping the back of her dress and letting it fall(after wiggling her wings out of it), peeling off her leggings, unclipping and tossing away her bra, and finally pulling off her frilly green panties. Once she was as all natural as the spring, she slowly eased herself into the water. It was still as warm but not as slippery as she thought it would be. She finally felt the bottom when she was in neck deep. It was smooth stone, which meant she wouldn't have any mush or mud to clean out of her toes. Star sat against the end of the spring and just relaxed. Her toned figure was given a feeling of calm and serenity she had never experienced before. It was like a soft massage all over her body.

She could feel her muscles loosen up and her inner body feeling cozy and toasty. She was feeling so good that her cheeks were now displaying lily flowers. She nearly fell asleep(again) but woke up as soon as she couldn't breath and saw that the sun had fully set.

"Oh man, I better get home." Star said as she climbed out

She grabbed her wand and pointed it at herself

"QUICKDRY TORNADO!" Star shouted as a mini tornado blow dryer her body. She grabbed a comb out of her dress pocket to uncurl her hair. Afterwards, she put her clothes back on and moved through the bushes to where her bike was.

She put her helmet and pads on and started biking up the hill. She zoomed through the lanes as this is when cars would start to zoom through the lanes to avoid early night traffic. After working her calves through several streets, Star was back home. She saw that Marco and Jackie weren't back yet, but for the first time in weeks, she was fine with it.
