Fanon:Starr Straight

Starr Straight (née Schwarz) is the daughter of Justine Schwarz and Mike Erickson and the granddaughter of Robyn Schwarz, Jolene Lu, and Chadwick Erickson. She is Tristan Straight's wife.

Starr and Tristan currently have one child together, Dawn.

Childhood
Starr was born to parents Justine Schwarz and Mike Erickson, who were very poor at the time of her birth. Her parents didn't even move into a two-bedroom house until she turned two. Her family for once was in a good place. This, however, didn't last long. By the time Starr was 5, her parents filed for divorce. Justine sat her down and explained to Starr that her father wasn't in love with her anymore (as he had affair). With no one else to turn to, she and her mom moved in with June Straight and Janet Michaels, who were happy to take them in.

Starr's father began to clean up his act and make efforts to be a better person and father. He got remarried, giving Starr a new brother. Her father made it an effort to speak with her on the phone at least once a week.

Teen Years
Starr developed an instant crush on Kirsten Straight and Sally Hustev's son, Tristan Straight. She planned to ask him to homecoming, but life got in the way. One night, Starr went with Justine, June, and Janet to see a movie. A horrible gas fire sparked, engulfing the kitchen; Dane was gone. A distraught Tristan canceled his plans to attend the dance. Everyone eventually coped with Dane's death, and stuck together.

Meeting her grandfather
The sun began to come out, however. Justine learned that the identity of her father was a man by the name of David Starr, now living in Monte Vista with his wife and daughters. Justine discovered that both she and her daughter were inadvertantly named after him. David led an idyllic life, was happily married, and very wealthy. Justine and Starr flew out to Monte Vista to meet him. While it was a shock at first, he welcomed them into the family without hesitation. Starr met her grandfather, and her aunts. After a pleasant evening of dinner and board games, David, and his wife, Bessie, told Justine and Starr they were welcome to visit anytime.

Relationship with Tristan Straight
One day while walking in the park, she saw Tristan on a date with another girl. Upset, she ran home. Trying to just forget about it and go on with her life, Starr jumped into a relationship with her classmate, Eduardo Lobos. This didn't last however. Eduardo just knew that she was in love with Tristan, he could see it whenever the two were hanging out. After he broke things off, Starr decided to just throw caution to the wind and ask out Tristan. Eduardo later discovered his true-self and would marry Starr's cousin, Leo. Overcome with joy that Tristan said yes, they attended her grandmother's engagement shower together. They wound up sharing a kiss before the night was over. After only two dates, the pair became official; they just wanted to be together and had been friends for so long.

Justine and her boyfriend, Duane, had decided to move in together. They moved with Starr to a nice house on Long Island Drive.

Early Adulthood
Shortly after graduation, Tristan and Starr got engaged. Although they were young, their parents still fully supported the happy couple. Their wedding was put off by a month, however, due to the death of Tristan's aunt June. After that month, they had a small ceremony at Riverwalk Park.

A year later, Starr's mother was getting married. At the wedding, Starr revealed that she and Tristan were expecting! 9 months later, Starr was far along. She and Tristan had plans to meet her parents for lunch together. However, she went into labor just as they were about to enter the restaurant. Later that day, Dawn was born.

When Dawn was almost two, Tristan's mother, Kirsten, sadly passed away. However, things were looking up for the Straight family: Starr had begun a career in journalism and landed her first reporting job.

Things continued as normal for them, and Tristan and Starr began trying for another baby. When Dawn turned 7, Starr's mother passed from natural causes. But when one door closes another one opens. Shortly after, Starr found out she was pregnant for a second time.
