“Marco!” Tom cries worriedly, and the brunette sits up slightly when he hears a rumbling growl of his name from Meteora. The moment after that, he’s face down on the ground next to Tom.
#STAR VS THE FORCES OF EVIL DIVIDE FREE#
He writhes and struggles and manages to free himself, and the next thing he knows he’s kicking her in the face. Marco screeches when her grip tightens, hand growing bigger. “Tom-“ He begins, but it seems Meteora has had enough, as suddenly she’s draining dozens at a time. “- with you.” He finally finishes, and Marco feels tears prick his eyes. “-am in love-“ Another pause, and Marco thinks he might die of a heart attack. “Because I-“ He breaks off for a moment as another spirit is drained. That doesn’t stop Marco from screaming in protest when Meteora zaps him again. “Tom!” He cries, but he goes still in surprise when Tom once more sucks in a ragged gasp of air. That’s the bluff I’m calling-“ He chokes off when Meteora zaps him again, and Marco shrieks in protest, kicking his legs and wiggling in her tight grip. “No I- I really did kiss Star!” He insists. “Tom! What are you doing!?” He shrieks when he hears the demon suck in a ragged gasp of air. If he’s honest, the last thing he expected to see was Tom leaping in front of him to save his life he had thought he had destroyed whatever was between them when he admitted he had kissed Star. “Can today get any worse?” He mutters to himself. Now go-“ He looks up, and his heart twists when he finds that Tom is long gone. “I kissed Star.” He admits weakly, and Tom’s hands drop as he recoils in surprise. Marco’s expression twists and he leans ai little away, but still not out of the demons hold. “Whoa, whoa whoa whoa,” He protests, hands shifting to grip Marco’s shoulders, preventing him from moving away, but moving away is the last thought on Marco’s mind as he stares in surprise at the demon. “Marco-“ The hand in his grasp twists and closes around Marco’s, and Marco’s cheeks turn pink. His fingers tingle and burn from the contact, and his heart speeds up a little in his chest. “You’re right, but someone needs to go warn Star.” Marco mutters, trying not to give too much thought to how his fingertips linger on Tom’s hand as he gently pushes the demon. I don’t think the Marcnificent two is going to be enough to stop her.” Tom’s voice is hushed where they hide, trapped behind a boulder while Meteora stomps around searching for them.
