"Oh come on. You look great. Besides I'm sure having a bit of fun will take your mind of it." Star says as Alexis follows her downstairs to the party only to walk into Jackie and Marco in the kitchen.
"What's up Star, Alexis? You having fun?" Jackie asks as Alexis tries not to look at Marco.
"Yeah.. It's uh great." Alexis says nervously.
"I just realized I have to go to the bathroom." Jackie says.
"Oh uh..." Marco says.
"You three talk for a sec. Be right back." Jackie says as she leaves causing Alexis to give an even more nervous look.
"I uh just um.. remembered I dropped something out the window this morning.. I'm gonna go find it. You two have fun." Alexis says as she nervously and quickly runs outside.
*Timeskip*
Later as Alexis is sitting outside she then gets lifted up into the air.
"Hey!" Alexis says before being pulled through a window and into hers and Star's bedroom where Janna, Kelly, and Pony Head are.
"Relax girl. It's only us." Pony Head says.
"Star.." Alexis says as Star puts her down.
"I know. Look I called them because you need some help." Star says as Alexis sighs in annoyance.
"No I don't Star." Alexis says.
"Alexis you and Marco can't even look at each other. He knows about your crush on him and you literally made an excuse earlier to get away from him. That's bad." Star says.
"So? He knows now. I can't do anything about it. I just want things normal again. I wish I never even developed the crush but it's too late for that. I just want things to be normal again around him." Alexis says as she looks down.
"Girl don't freak out. Maybe you two just need some space. Like me and Tad. We're on our third break this week." Kelly says.
"Come on Alexis. Let's ditch this place and go to the party the bad kids are having. I heard it's super dangerous." Janna says.
"Oh! Star you know what? You love danger and you love music Alexis. It's also gonna be out under the stars and you love the night." Pony Head says.
"Yeah I do." Alexis says in defeat.
"Boom! You're in! Let's go!" Pony Head shouts.
*Timeskip*
"Wow!" The group says as they arrive at the party.
"Ooh! Burning homework! So dangerous!" Pony Head shouts excitedly.
"Is that legal?" Star asks concernedly.
"And safe?" Alexis asks worriedly.
"Don't worry. It's a controlled burn." A woman says.
"This is pretty cool right? Janna's having a good time." Kelly says as Janna is burning some books.
"I guess." Alexis says uninterested.
"Oh come on Alexis. Loosen up. Star is." Pony Head says as Star joins in on burning the books and homework.
"I'm just not in a partying mood right now Pony. I'm gonna go sit for a bit. Let me know when Star is ready to head back home." Alexis says as she goes and sits down by a car.
"Alexis? No way. It is you." A voice says revealing to be a brown haired boy with an instrument sitting on top of the car.
"Sorry. Do I know you?" Alexis asks as she stands up.
"It's me Oskar. I got a haircut. Check it out." The boy says.
"Oskar? Oh right. Star introduced us a couple times. The haircut threw me off. Well it was nice meeting you again." Alexis says.
"You're not leaving already are you?" Oskar asks as Alexis looks at him nervously.
"Um..." Alexis says as she looks at Star who is having fun before shaking her head.
"I guess I'm not leaving quite yet." Alexis says.
*Timeskip*
"So I haven't seen you at school in a while." Alexis says as she is sitting with Oskar.
"Yeah I... dropped out to pursue my music." Oskar says as he starts playing some music before Alexis harmonizes along to his beat and eventually shifts to wolf form howling to the melody before stopping as she realizes Oskar is looking at her.
"Sorry. Sometimes I can't help myself. Wolf in me I guess." Alexis says embarrassed as she shifts back to human form.
"Don't apologize. Your voice is beautiful. You should sing more often." Oskar says.
"Thank you. Your playing is really good too. I can see why you wanted to pursue it. You've got a lot of talent." Alexis says kindly.
"You're a lot like your sister. You believe in people. Maybe you should also believe in yourself a little more often too. Might be surprised at what that could do." Oskar says as he blushes slightly as Alexis smiles gently.
*Timeskip*
"When you got the wand it turns to a icy looking staff and it looks the way it does now when Star has it? Cool. So you just say stuff and magic comes out?" Oskar as he looks over at Star holding her wand.
"Yeah pretty much. Star and I have been creating our own spells since we've began learning magic. Though mine are more elemental and night time based with some animal ones. Want to see?" Alexis asks.
"Yeah I'd be honored." Oskar says happily.
"Well this is a new one I have been working on. It's in honor of something my birth mother loved to watch with me when I was little before I got found by Star's parents. Aurorua Lightoris!" Alexis shouts as she makes aurora lights appear in the sky much to everyone's delight.
"Whoa! It's beautiful." Oskar says as Alexis smiles.
"Thanks." Alexis says happily as she brushes a strand of hair behind her ear.
"Seriously. How have we not hung out before?" Oskar asks.
"Probably because I'm always with Star and.. Marco.." Alexis says as she goes quiet at the thought of Marco.
"Oh yeah. You guys seemed pretty close." Oskar says as Alexis nods.
"Yeah.." Alexis says.
"Where is he anyway?" Oskar asks.
"Eh. Hanging out with Jackie. Star will likely be off having fun somewhere so I guess it's back to solitary time for me." Alexis says as she looks down.
"Well I'm not doing anything this summer. I'd make a great Mango." Oskar says.
"Everybody run!" A boy shouts as police arrive.
"Hey Alexis? I had a great time tonight. I think we could have an awesome summer together." Oskar says as Alexis looks at him.
"You know.. I'd like that very much." Alexis says as she smiles.
"Give me a call." Oskar says as he walks away.
"See? We told you it would be fun." Pony Head says as she and the others come over.
"Yeah I guess you were right. I guess summer won't be so bad." Alexis says as she smiles.
"And it's off to a great start already." Star says happily.
"Yeah. I guess there's just one thing to take care of." Alexis says.
*Timeskip*
"Marco? Can we talk?" Alexis asks as she later walks up to Marco and Jackie before Marco follows her outside.
"So.." Marco asks.
"Look I know things have been different and awkward." Alexis says nervously.
"Definitely." Marco says.
"I also know we've been avoiding each other but I was terrified about talking to you about it. I never cared about someone before like that but I know one thing is for sure is that I don't want you to stop being part of my pack.. being my friend. I was just terrified you don't want me around anymore but I miss things how they were." Alexis says as she looks down.
"So you do have a crush on me.. but I miss how things were too." Marco says as Alexis looks at him in surprise.
"You do?" Alexis asks as Marco nods.
"Yeah of course. You're my best friend." Marco says as Alexis smiles before it disappears.
"Yes and that's how it needs to stay. Us as friends. It's was just a stupid feeling I let develop. I promise another incident like Song Day won't happen again. I honestly just want to forget it ever happened. I feel like it'll be better off for us both that way." Alexis says sadly.
"What's a Song Day? That sounds like a terrible day." Marco says as Alexis looks at him and smiles.
"Thanks Marco." Alexis says as she goes inside and upstairs before into hers and Star's bedroom as she sees Moon and Star.
"Mom? Wha... What are you doing here?" Alexis asks curiously.
"I don't have time to explain but suffice it to say we are in danger. We must leave for Mewni immediately." Moon says.
"What? Mom no. No!" Star says as she and Alexis give sad looks.
"Yes. I'm afraid you have no choice in the matter." Moon says.
"You sent me here and I didn't have a choice and now you're just telling me to leave?" Star asks angrily.
"Star this is different." Moon says.
"Mom I've learned that I get to make choices here." Star says.
"And I've learned to actually make relationships with people I care about. I chose to fix things with Marco." Alexis says as she and Star ramble on.
"Alexis! Star!" Moon shouts angrily.
"What!?" Alexis and Star ask in union.
"Toffee has returned. I'm sorry but you need to leave." Moon says sternly as Alexis and Star give fearfully looks before Alexis sighs.
"Let me at least have a couple minutes." Alexis says.
*Timeskip*
"Marco!" Alexis shouts as she stands on the stairs getting everyone's attention.
"Alexis? What's wrong?" Marco asks as he looks at Alexis.
"Marco I have so much I want to tell you. I had had to speak with you one more time." Alexis says worriedly.
"Is everything okay? You shouted pretty loud. Everybody's just staring at us." Marco says as he goes over to Alexis.
"Marco please. Just let me speak. I have so much to say and now I only have a short bit to say it." Alexis says.
"What? Why? We got the entire summer." Marco says in confusion.
"Marco I know I said I just wanted to forget the whole incident but I was saying that out of fear and hate for my feeling. I was scared of truly acknowledging it but I have to say it. You're my best friend and I see you as part of my pack but I also do care for you because I do have a crush on you. I know you don't feel the same and I don't blame you. I'm not exactly desirable among Mewmans for being what I am. I thought if I just ignored the feeling it would go away but I was wrong. Star and I have to leave which is why I had to say this. I would of regretted this if I hadn't. I'm so sorry.." Alexis says as she runs off with Star as Marco is shouting before she and Star leave with Moon.
