Earth Boys are Easy…

Thanks for reading. I've been mulling this idea for a Star Vs The Forces Of Evil fanfic for a while now, and decided to give it a go. I know the premise has been done a thousand times before, but I thought it would be a nice take for the show.

I thought I'd set the story during their Junior year of high school, after Star's gotten settled in on Earth.

So, I hope ya'll enjoy.

It was a comfortable evening in el Casa de Diaz. Both Star and Marco hanging out in Star's room, Marco was looking at his phone searching for more cute pictures to text Jackie, while Star who sat in her desk chair was flipping mindlessly through a fashion magazine. Despite their many adventures through different dimensions it was a relaxing change of pace to laze around the house. It was almost strange how comfortable Marco felt around Star, with her constant company over the past few years he couldn't imagine what he did without his favorite Mewni princess.

They remained in silence until Star's magical mirror began to ring.

Ring…. Ring… Ring…. RING!

Marco looked up from his phone, and finding that his Mewni friend was blissfully unaware cleared his throat loudly. But still, she hummed softly to herself, mumbling something about what her color was.

Ring…. Ring… Ring… RING!

This could go on forever, he thought.

"Star, your mirror's ringing…. again." He urged her. The young princess looked completely uninterested in what Marco was talking about. She continued to skim through the pages in her hands. "You're not going to answer that?"

"Not at all Marco," Star kept her face buried in her magazine. "It's just my Mom, trying to suffocate me with lecturers about mewberty… But it's been forever since the whole 'Mewberty Monster Mash' at school. I'm perfectly fine now."

"Well you did transform into a giant boy-napping butterfly. Maybe you should talk to her about it."

"NO!" Star tossed her magazine down and stood up from her chair. Marco stepped back in surprise, Star noticed this and cleared her throat. "I mean, it's embarrassing, hasn't your dad given you the talk?" Marco shuddered.

"Don't remind me…"

"Exactly. Besides, I've got this under complete control, there is no way I'm gonna freak out again." She made her way over to her door, "Now if you'll excuse me, I've got some of those Z's to catch." Was it that late already? Marco agreed and left her room, but not before stealing a glance at the princess before he left.

It was a habit that he picked up long ago, sometimes he couldn't help it; it had become second nature to him, almost like breathing. The effects of mewberty had become more apparent in the past couple of years that Star had been on Earth. Before he knew it his friend had blossomed into, at a lack of better words, a bombshell. Her hips and chest matured giving her an hourglass figure. Pair that with her full lips, silky blond hair and long legs that seemed to go on forever; Marco had to keep an eye out for creeps that could easily prey on the naive Mewni princess.

Yet despite how attractive she was, it seemed like she hadn't even noticed. She was somehow oblivious about the effect she had on the other boys at school… oblivious about the effect she had on him.

'Nope, no way. Not happening. He shook his head. 'Star's attractive, okay, but I just don't feel that way about her. She's fun to be around, but at the end of the day we're better off as friends.'

Marco was content with his relationship with Star Butterfly. He decided that attraction to a beautiful girl was inevitable, but there was no way he would jeopardize the friendship that they shared. Besides, Star had never even hinted that she wanted anything more from their relationship. Instead she drooled over other boys, like that idiot Oskar.

Marco sighed while making his way to his room. Love was tough for the new earthling, but he knew she'd find the right guy someday, just as long as she stayed away from Tom.

However…

Inside of Star's room, she was in turmoil.

"Uh… I really got to get a hold of myself." Her head was pressed against the door to her room. After she had led Marco out, she pressed herself against it with frustration. "I might as well just tackle him…" She slumped to the floor. "Mewberty's got me all messed up."

Untrue to what she had told Marco earlier, Star found herself struggling to keep control of the raging emotions inside of her, especially when it came to Marco. If her mother knew that she was having these types of feelings towards a boy she was living under the same roof with… Star winced at the thought.

She knew things would be easier if she spoke to her mother about it… but the Queen of Mewni was far from understanding. Even talking to Glossaryck was a better choice than confiding in her mother. She could almost hear the lecture her mother would give her about 'proper appearances,' and how to adhere to 'royal standards.'

It had been a long time since Star had accepted her feelings for her Earth bestie. Realizing she was in love with Marco was the easy part, keeping it quiet was another story. Marco had confessed his undying love for Jackie from day one, she was sure any hope for a romantic relationship was doomed. So she decided that it would be best to continue her relationship platonically. Even if Marco felt the same way… She was destined to marry some boring prince in a nearby kingdom. Such was the life of a princess. She sighed.

And yet… as the days passed she felt herself becoming more and more drawn to him. She wanted so badly just to kiss him, or to wrap her arms around him and run her fingers through his hair. Maybe even run a hand across his chest and feel the muscles that had developed from his earth transformation called puberty. 'It can't happen.' She reminded herself, resolving to do her best and keep it a secret. She took a final look around her room made her way into bed.

Mewberty couldn't get much worse…

Or so she thought.

Thanks for reading.

Have fun!
