One free Karate lesson

>It's early on a Friday evening, almost time for Marco Diaz's Karate class at the local strip mall.
>"Star, I'm heading out to Karate, do you want anything while I'm out?" -Marco called out to his best friend Star Butterfly, who was for once using some of her free time to study her ginormous and ancient spellbook.
>"If you go by the Slushie Supreme on the way back, could you grab me an Root Beer slushie? I've been dying for one since you let me have some Root Beer soda a few days ago." -Star said, tearing herself away from her spellbook to answer Marco.
>"Sure, no problem Star, be back in a few hours." -Marco said as he finished putting on his shoes and walked out to his bike in the yard.
>"Have fun Marco! Beat up Jeremy for me!" -Star yelled out her window as Marco pedaled past the side of the house that housed Star's room. The two waved goodbye to each other, then Star went back into her room, as Marco kept pedaling toward Karate practice.
>Being the safe kid that he is, Marco had no issues getting to his class early, and with no accidents to boot.
>As Marco walked in and started taking off his shoes at the entrance to the Dojo proper, he noticed an extra pair of brown boots that he didn't recognize.
>"Huh, maybe we've got a visiting instructor? Oooh, or a new student?!?." -Marco said to himself, thinking of the various possibilities that the extra footwear at the entrance could mean.
>Just as he walked into the Dojo proper, Marco saw his sensei was talking to what he guessed was a new student. He couldn't get a good look at them, as his sensei was standing in front of the student, his back toward Marco. He had a sinking feeling when he saw an olive green hat on the student's head though...
>"Oh man...I hope that's not who I think it is..."-Marco groaned to himself as he got closer to the student and his sensei.

>To Marco's despair, his assumption about the student's identity turned out to be correct, as the mystery student turned out to be none other than Janna, stealer of house keys and general all-around annoyance.
>At that point the Dojo sensei turned around and, after spotting Marco, walked over and addressed his student after a informal bow.
>"Ah Diaz, just the man I wanted to see. We have a new student joining us today for a free lesson. Her name is Janna. She says she's never practiced a martial art before, and as today I was going to let you guys practice your forms a bit more, I figured you could show her around and maybe demonstrate for her some practice forms." -Dojo sensei said after Marco returned his bow
>Reluctantly, Marco accepted his temporary role of tour guide and mentor for Janna, who was standing off to the side of the practice mat and smiling devilishly at Marco.
>Walking up to Janna and, not wanting his sensei to hear, Marco started whispering to her.
>"What are you doing here Janna? Since when have you ever had any interest in the noble art of Karate? Also, can I have my house keys back?" -Marco whispered to her while leading her away from the rest of the students, who were busy stretching.
>"Maybe if you promise to take me to Slushie Supreme afterwards, I'll give you your keys back with a little...extra." -Janna said while slowly taking her outer shirt off, showing off her bare shoulders and arms while smirking at Marco's reddening face.
>"I-ah, I don't ne-need them back that badly, Janna." -Marco stuttered while averting his eyes and turning his back on Janna, unsure if he wanted to see more of not.
>"Oh don't be silly Marco, I'm sure you want them back, just not badly enough yet...besides, I can't practice with that extra shirt on, it's so...restricting." -Janna said as she reached up and started slowly massaging Marco's shoulders from behind.

>"Someone is wound up pretty tight..." -Janna said with a giggle as Marco jumped away from her, somewhat shocked at her sudden touch, not to mention that it was JANNA who had just touched him.
>Face slowly looking more and more like a beet, Marco beat a hasty retreat, yelling at his sensei that he needed a quick bathroom break.
>The Dojo sensei just nodded and continued his rounds, looking and correcting his various charge's horrid practice forms.
>Janna, slightly annoyed at Marco's sudden withdrawal, followed him to where she guessed the bathrooms were located. Having found said bathrooms, she waited outside for Marco to come out so that she could get him to show her around like the good karate student he was supposed to be.
>After a few minutes, Marco peeked out of the bathroom door, saw Janna waiting, and quickly closed the door again, hoping she hadn't seen him.
>She had, to his chagrin
>"Oh Marco, I know your in there...why don't you come out and show me the rest of the dojo like your teacher wanted you to?" -Janna taunted Marco, knowing how much he enjoyed his karate classes and wouldn't want to let his sensei down thanks to her spying earlier in the week.
>"Fine Janna, just don't...touch me unless I ask you to, alright?" -Marco said, emerging from the bathroom finally.
>"Whatever makes you happy Marco." -Janna said while holding her hands in the air, as an act of good faith.
>The two proceeded to walk around the dojo as Marco pointed out the various areas of use that the students used in their lessons.
>After the quick tour, Marco was starting to feel back to normal, and started showing Janna a few of the practice forms that the other students were trying to perfect.
>This pleased Janna immensely, watching Marco's honed body perform multiple kata, each more difficult and complex than the last.
>She even tried to copy him a few times, which caused Marco to smile back at her, and correct her various mistakes.

>Eventually the pair fell into a pattern of attempt/correct, as Janna tried for some of the easier forms, and Marco would correct her mistakes.
>By the end of the lesson, Janna had gotten at least two of the kata down pretty well, to her amazement and Marco's satisfaction.
>The Dojo sensei, looking at the clock, called the lesson to an end, and thanked Janna for practicing with Marco, and thanked Marco for his willingness to help another.
>"So my new student, did you enjoy your free lesson from Diaz?" -the sensei asked Janna after everyone had cleaned up and started to leave the dojo for the day.
>"I did sir, it was very enlightening indeed. Marco's a very good teacher, I'd definitely love some more one on one time with him..." -Janna said while Marco filed out door, waving at his sensei and Janna in turn.
>Getting back on his bike, Marco headed home, distracted by Janna's recent behavior and what her angle was.
>So distracted, that he forgot to get Star a slushie like she'd asked him earlier.
>When Marco arrived home, Star was watching TV, slowly falling asleep to Latino soup operas.
>Him opening the door woke her up though.
>"Zzzz-huh? Oh, Marco, your back finally. How was Karate?" -Star asked, getting off the couch and stretching.
>"Oh, it was...interesting. Janna was there an-" -Marco started saying as Star interrupted.
>"Janna? I didn't know she took Karate. Did you know she took Karate?" -Star said, puzzled by this news.
>"She didn't, as far as I know, she just showed up for a free lesson and I ended up babysitting her for awhile." -Marco said while making his way to the kitchen to see what he could eat for dinner.
>"Heh, babysitting...oh, by the way Marco, did you pick me up a slushie like I asked earlier?" -Star said as her stomach started grumbling.
>From the sound of it, Marco then slapped himself, groaned, and sighed.

>"I'm guessing you forgot then? That's ok, you can make it up to me by making some NACHOS!" -Star yelled as she bounced into the kitchen and proceeded to give Marco a big hug.
>"Alright, calm down Star, I'll make us both a big plate of nachos." -Marco said, lightly laughing at Star's antics.
>"So...what did Janna do that caused you to forget my slushie? Apart from showing up, that is." -Star asked as Marco started to prep the kitchen.
>"Oh, she...ah...was acting a little weird, which I guess is normal for her, really." -Marco mumbled, trying not to think about Janna's smooth, pale skin or her hands massaging his tense shoulders.
>"Did she try and stick her hands in your hoodie again? You said that's how she stole your house-keys last time... wait, you don't wear your hoodie to Karate class..." -Star asked as she tried to think of what Janna would do to Marco without his hoodie that could cause her bestie to wig out so badly he'd forget her slushie.
>As Marco continued to prepare his infamous nachos, Star's thoughts started to go toward...indecent places that a princess' mind probably shouldn't go.
>Thankfully the smell of the cooking nachos brought her back to reality pretty quickly.
>"Oh, cool, nachos almost done? Swweeettt...." -Star said, thinking of a quick way to get Marco's mind back on track.
>"Yep, just about, you can watch some more TV if you want while I fin-" -Marco started saying, until Star gave him another, somewhat more intimate hug from behind.
>"Uh, Star? You ok? I-I mean, I appreciate the hug and all..." -Marco mumbled, unsure what exactly to do.
>"I can touch Marco toooo, see?" -Star whispered while giving him a full body hug.
>His brain on the verge of shutting down, and her's filled with contentment, Marco and Star held their one person hug for a few minutes, at least until the timer went off for the nachos.

>Separating slowly, the two teens looked at each other, smiling, then proceeded to sit down and enjoy each other's company with a side of nachos, laughing at the various shows on the TV late into the night.
>Eventually, they both passed out in each others arms, unaware that they were being watched.
>For Janna had hoped for some late night companionship with the safe kid while he slept, but this was quickly ruled out, as he was not in his bed like normal, but asleep on the couch, cuddled up with a certain inter dimensional crush-stealer who'd just appeared out of nowhere one day and- this train of thought wasn't helping.
>Janna sighed, deciding to give her nightly routine another go in a few days.
>"I swear, one of these days that Marco Diaz will love me...maybe I should try a different tack next time..." -Janna said to herself as she stalked back home, thinking of ways to make Marco hers.
