How to Change a Star

Star Butterfly never thought that a fight could be boring, but her best friend Marco Diaz and her demonic ex-boyfriend Tom Lucitor were managing to do just that. She supposed that, for an unknown spectator, her explosive battle might seem interesting, but she was very tired of their constant disputes and the inevitable escalation that followed. Everything was just a discussion waiting to happen between them, especially if it involved her, and she was so fed up with everything that she wanted to scream. However, she didn't, instead letting herself fall onto the windowsill of her tower and sighed when a burning car passed by her window before exploding into a ball of fire. Why were boys sometimes so stupid? Boys, I can't live with them, right? A voice suddenly asked beside her. Star snorted in agreement before her eyes opened. She jumped back startled, lifting her wand in defense before recognizing Janna Ordonia, her friend and classmate at Echo Creek Academy, who was leaning casually against the wall, her attention more focused on the chaos outside. However, I have to say that Marco is doing better than I would normally give him credit for. Janna, what are you doing here? Star asked, happily letting her friend's arrival distract her from the fight outside even when another explosion made her hair fly to one side. “Generally, I can grab some pretty scary monster pieces after one of your battles, so when I heard the commotion, I thought I'd check it out. I can't believe they're just those two. Why are they fighting this time? Doesn't matter? They always fight and I'm so fed up with that,” Star let her head fall back while tracing the 'o's before completely turning away from the window. Well, in that case, said Janna, surprising Star again as she approached Silently to the princess and passed an arm around the shoulder of Star, 'Do you want to do something?' 'Yes', Star smiled with complicity as she nodded. Janna's idea of entertainment was just what Star needed to let off steam at this moment. 'What do you have in mind? Necromancy? Identity theft? Nigromantic identity theft?' 'I like where your head is. Although I was thinking of something that involved fewer shovels. Let's go.' Star let Janna guide her out of the house and through the backyard, where they jumped over the fence and left behind Marco and Tom's fight. They headed to the center of Echo Creek, and Star thought Janna intended to take her shopping or possibly robbing, it could be anything with Janna. She was about to ask about their destination when Janna suddenly led her to an alley. Star tilted her head to give Janna a mocking look as the other girl rummaged through her coat before pulling out a stack of rectangular plastic cards. Janna reviewed them before offering one to Star. 'Hey, what's this, Janna?' Star asked, studying the card and the unflattering image of herself on the left side of it. 'It's an identification, I make them for all my friends,' said Janna before grabbing the other end of Star's sleeve as Star lifted her wand to make the photo of herself explode. 'No. I'm quite sure magic will make it evident that it's false'. 'Why do I need a fake ID?' Star practically vibrated in place while her sense of excitement continued to grow. 'With luck, you won't have to. Just have confidence and act like you belong. If you get ticketed, I'll be there to back you up'. Star nodded and put the identification in her small star-shaped purse before following Janna as they returned to the sidewalk and hurried towards the entrance of a near store. The enthusiasm of Star made it almost impossible to concentrate until they were inside and then the rows of alcohol jumped out at her. A nearby employee behind the counter was looking at them and Star quickly took Janna's hand, just to take a breath while the other girl disappeared deeper into the store. “Janna!” Star whispered fiercely as she crouched down by a random aisle to avoid the employee's gaze. Janna, why are we in a liquor store? “To buy alcohol, of course”, responded Janna with the same calmness as her head popped out from around a corner. fuck something, preferably rum or amaretto. The emotion quickly turned into panic when Star focused her attention on the shelves and the large quantity of bottles. Her eyes bounced from one label that caught her attention to another too quickly to really capture any information. The visual overload was becoming too much and she closed her eyes with force before stretching out her hand and grabbing two bottles at random. Star opened her eyes just enough to look at her feet as she walked towards the counter, where she left the bottles with more force than she intended. She continued looking at her feet while trying to regulate her panicked breathing. Internally, she blamed Marco for her anxiety. She had fought against hordes of monsters and all kinds of threats, but Mr. Rules Marco had gotten into her head about how violating laws was something bad. Almost managed to get Marco's voice out of her head when she realized there was another voice interrupting. “Hey?” Said Star as she looked up. “I said I'd need to see some identification if you're going to buy this”, said the employee while looking at Star with skepticism. Star took a deep breath to calm herself before taking the identification Janna had given her and slapping it on the counter. When the employee picked it up, Star leaned against the counter, trying to look safe as Janna had told her. 'Yes, I can't sell you alcohol', said the employee, still holding Star's identification. 'What? Why not?' Star did everything possible to look indignant, although she knew she seemed more nervous than anything else. 'Because you're clearly underage. Now get out before you get into real trouble'. 'Excuse me, is there a problem?' Janna said as she approached and stood next to Star, placing a bottle of vodka beside the bottles of Star. 'Yes, you two are trying to buy alcohol with fake IDs. There's no way either of you can be old enough. Both of you look like you're just in high school'.Janna tilted her head while looking at the employee, but he refused to move while looking at them with his arms crossed. Star and the employee jumped when Janna suddenly hit the counter with her hands. “WHAT DO YOU WANT TO SAY BY NOT SELLING TO GAYS?” Janna screamed, making the employee take a step back startled and Star look on with her mouth slightly open. “HOW DARE YOU DISCRIMINATE US BECAUSE WE'RE LESBIANS!” Janna continued, not as loud as before but still loud enough to catch the attention of the few customers in the store at that moment. “FIRST A BAKERY AND NOW A LIQUOR STORE?! It's incredible. Do you have any idea how serious it is going to be? There will be protests outside this store for weeks. Good luck explaining to your boss why business has gone bankrupt after we boycott your products! The employee tried to intervene, but Janna's barrage didn't give him a chance. He kept looking beyond them two and Star looked around to see other people taking pictures with their phones or recording the encounter. “SO WHAT'S IT GOING TO BE? You can sell us my girlfriend and me a damn alcohol, or we can call our friends and make a scene outside your store like you've never seen before”. Janna leaned over the counter and lowered her voice to a harsh whisper: CHOOSE WISELY. The employee looked at them in silence for a moment before handing Star his identification and starting to call them out. There was a silence in the store when they left with their drinks in a paper bag. Once outside, Star and Janna had to fight not to run while struggling to contain their laughter. They returned to the alley where they had stopped before and almost doubled over laughing. Oh man, Janna, that was incredible! Star had to wipe away tears from the corners of her eyes when she finally stopped laughing. 'Did I, right? Did you see how confused that guy was?' Janna said between laughs while grabbing her reward. 'Where did the idea of pretending to be gay come from? Genius,' Star said before realizing that the alley had suddenly become strangely silent. She looked at Janna and found the girl returning her gaze with an injured expression. 'Who said I was faking?' The eyes of Star opened in panic: 'My God, Janna, no, no, no. That's not what I meant... I thought you... but you and John Keats...' Star continued to stumble over his words until Janna laughed again. 'Relax, star. It's not a big deal. Now let's take a look at our route. I was too busy playing chicken with that employee to see what you got.' Janna placed the bag on top of a trash can and pulled out the two bottles Star had grabbed. 'Hmm, coffee liqueur and green apple vodka. Well, it's not exactly what I had in mind, but I've worked with worse,' Janna said while reflecting on her options before putting everything back in the bag. 'Let's get some more supplies to make this work.' Star approached Janna and after a quick trip, Janna started preparing two very different drink mixes in soda glasses. Star found a creamy one with chocolate while Janna mixed the apple vodka with lime-lemon soda. 'So, don't you have alcohol in Mewni?' Janna asked after noticing that Star was drinking hesitantly. 'No, we make whiskey from the corn we cultivate,' explained Star, furrowing her brow at her drink. 'But it's so potent that it's usually used for cleaning or as explosives. My dad let me try it once and I felt like my tongue was burning for a week. Only those on my family's side regularly drink it.' dad. Papa inclined his head thoughtfully before adding: What could explain the spontaneous combustion story between the Johansens. Janna laughed until she realized Star was serious and then laughed even harder until Star joined in. The two returned to the Diaz house. There were no signs of Marco or Tom, which came as a relief to Star while they walked through the rubble of the kids' fight. With luck, they escaped to another dimension to continue their dispute.Star and Janna returned to Star's room to avoid being caught with their illicit goods. They had taken off their boots before resting on Star's enormous bed. Star wasn't a big drinker and the sips she had taken were already making her body heat up. This made her mind wander, and as she looked at Janna, her curiosity got loose from the leash of courtesy. Janna, I don't want to be rude, but are you really gay? Janna paused mid-sip and found herself looking into Star's gaze with an arched eyebrow. She left her drink on the nearby nightstand and sat down with her legs crossed in front of Star. What makes you ask? Janna replied with a question of her own. Well, uh, laughed Star, I've never seen you flirt with other girls or show much interest. Maybe there hasn't been anyone here who has interested me that much, Janna's head inclined with an expression of boredom while looking away, causing Star to look in that direction before realizing Janna had used her distraction to escape from Star. Janna lifted the lid and drank the rest of the drink before throwing the empty container behind her. Do you have gay people in Mewni, Star? Janna asked before Star could object. I think so, said Star, nervously flustered before hurrying to explain. It's not that it's illegal, but royal families certainly don't promote the idea and with all the different races in Mewni, sometimes it's a bit hard to know. You like boys, but have you ever thought of girls that way? Janna asked, advancing subtly. Star noticed her cheeks were flushed, but assumed it was from the alcohol since she also felt heat on her face. Honestly, I would fall in love with anyone if they're smart enough, but girls... girls are beautiful. Although my parents would have a heart attack The idea, said Star, her voice becoming more tranquil as she realized it. I'm sure I would have been sent to St. Olga. Star shuddered at the thought before stiffening when Janna's hand rested on her knee. Uh, Janna, your hand-

Star lifted her gaze just in time to find Janna dominating her field of vision as Janna leaned in and pressed her lips against Star's. There was a moment of shock that kept Star frozen, but she didn't pull away even after it passed, the sensation of Janna's lips captivating her in a way no kiss had before. Finally, Janna pulled back, leaving Star stunned and breathless.

Star, Janna breathed while pressing harder on Star's knee, I have a confession to make. Since you arrived at Echo Creek, I haven't been able to stop thinking about you. Star's eyes opened wide, but Janna pressed on as she knelt down, bringing her face close to Star's again.

I wish I could've said this without needing a little liquid courage, but it scares me to think about. You're the most brilliant person I've met and the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my life.

Janna moved forward until she was kneeling between Star's legs, her hands on either of Star's knees, but Star didn't back away as the Earth girl continued to close in.

I know it doesn't come naturally for me to be sincere about my feelings, but it's hard when you don't really know what your feelings are. I've tried to interest myself in boys and experimented with some girls who are still figuring things out, but nothing has seemed as good as being near you.

As Janna spoke, her hands rose up Star's legs, playfully pulling the hem of Star's dress up a little before climbing up to her hips and abdomen.

When I heard you sounding so frustrated with boys, I knew I had that I take advantage of my opportunity. If you tell me to stop, I will, but I want to show you what you've been missing while those boys played with you. One of Janna's hands lifted up to Star's chin while the other guided Star to recline. At the moment when Star's head hit the bed, Janna's hands snaked around Star, holding them together as she kissed Star again. This time, Janna's entire body pressed against Star's while her tongue launched itself to provoke Star's lips. When Star gasped, Janna invaded her mouth hungrily and their tongues clashed in a duel. For the first time in a fight, Star found herself overwhelmed and overpowered, as Janna's tongue dominated her mouth.Janna moved her legs to be able to put a knee in the crotch of Star, and Star arched her back while throwing her head back and moaning over the canopy of her bed. The mouth of Janna moved hungrily towards the ear of Star, her neck, her throat, any place where she could kiss bare skin.

Those must have been some experiments, reflected Star weakly as Janna's hands began to move along Star's back.

Yes, Janna laughed kindly while momentarily remembering, Jackie was the only one who could keep up with me.

Wait, Jackie? Do you mean you and Jackie Lynn Thomas? exclaimed Star while sitting a little in shock.

You don't have to sound like it's so impossible. Janna's face twisted into a hurt pucker as she moved away.

No, Marco is just obsessed... I didn't even think... sorry, finished Star with a quiet and timid note while bowing her head in apology.

Janna smiled before lying down beside Star, who turned onto her side to look at each other.

It's okay, Jackie is super bisexual. The truth is that she's a kind of slut, but in the best sense. We had something casual every now and then, mainly kissing and touching. We were a good couple in bed, but Jackie was too active in everything else and I couldn't keep up with her.

As they lay flushed facing each other, Star still felt bad for killing the mood and decided to take the bold action of extending her hand and placing it on Janna's hip. Janna raised an inquisitive eyebrow and silently dared Star to go further. Star swallowed nervously as her hand moved downwards, causing Janna's eyes to sparkle with genuine curiosity before Star's hand submerged under Janna's skirt and grabbed Janna's ass. Janna barely had time to let out a sigh of satisfaction. When Star joined them and rolled to land now astride Janna. 'Good move, Star', said Janna as her hands slid under Star's dress and her nails scratched over the striped tights of Star. 'All those moments fighting monsters have their benefits', said Star happily even as she began to sweat as she realized she had taken the initiative and wasn't sure how to proceed. Of course, she and Tom had flirted a bit before their breakup, but this was completely new territory for Star and there was an odd pressure not to seem like an idiot in front of Janna. Star screamed internally as she felt the seconds dragging on until they seemed like an eternity, and she continued simply hovering over Janna. Just when Janna's lips began to twist into a questioning frown, Star slapped her hands on the bed on either side of Janna's head. Star was sure she must be trembling like a newly born warmicorn while she bent down until her face was just above Janna's. Vacillating, she closed that last small space and kissed Janna tenderly, at least until Janna returned the kiss with force. Star melted into Janna's kiss until she was on top of Janna. Star stroked Janna's cheek with one hand before getting up to remove her hat so her other hand could pass through Janna's dark hair. Janna, for her part, had grabbed handfuls of Star's ass and was squeezing, massaging, and spreading her cheeks with surprisingly strong fingers. Star wasn't sure if she meant to provoke, but it was working when she felt the heat growing between her legs and the desire for those fingers to really explore her grew with that heat. 'Janna, I'm not sure if I feel the same way about you', whispered Star as her lips parted, repressing a moan when Janna stopped at her words. But I'd like to see what I've been missing, if you're willing. Good enough for me, Janna purred enthusiastically. For now. Before Star could ask what that meant, Janna pushed Star up with one hand while starting to take off her blue coat with the other. Janna's green moss shirt was next to disappear, leaving her with a surprisingly pink bra, reminding Star that it was Janna's favorite color. Star stared fixedly at Janna's chest until the other girl laughed out loud.
