Aries p.o.v


The bus was crowded, as usual. Teenagers pushed around and swore at the top of their lungs. Aries glared at the younger boys in front of him, who were drawing very dirty things on the bus window with a sharpie. But this wasn't his problem. He got back to his History homework that was due first thing. It wasn't his style to do homework on the bus, on the contrary, he would do it days before it was due. But, well, the game he was playing the past few days was a lot more interesting.


A long, agonising 15 minutes later, the bus came to halt at the college gates. He hopped off his seat as fast as he could, shouldered his bag and strode off the bus, the uncrowded air embracing his sweaty features. How was it so hot already? It was only mid May, not even Summer yet. He shrugged it off as Global Warming.


He passed the gates and went into the playground, where groups of teenagers mingled around, gossiping, flirting, stuff like that. Not really Aries' scene. He went to look for the bench he and his friends had claimed since their first day at secondary school. Sure enough, on it sat two guys and a girl stood hovering above them, laughing at a comment one of them had made. The girl glanced at Aries, her long, blonde hair tossed over one shoulder effortlessly. "Hey! Aries!"


"Hi Libra!" Aries replied with a smile, joining her, Cancer and Virgo. Cancer's golden hair was blowing messily in the wind, while Virgo's stood unnaturally still, probably due to the excessive amount of product he used in it.


"Pisces is gonna be late today, he has an orthodontist appointment." Cancer stated, with a clear, neutral mask hiding his disappointment.


"Missing your boyfriend already?" Libra teased.


Cancer reddened, "I-uhh-maybe..."


Aries punched his in the arm, "You guys are so cute, and you'll see him later today and at the party tonight. Just don't do anything too coupley when everyone's still there, please."


"Speaking of the party," a bubbly voice said from behind them, "You had better have everything ready, because we're not gonna come back here just because someone's forgotten their toothbrush."


Aries turned around and was met with a grinning Ophiuchus, her green hair was pulled back into a messy ponytail and she was holding down her skirt tightly with fear it would fly up and flash the whole school.


"Haha you bet, Ophi!" Libra said enthusiastically. 


Aries placed a hand on his heart, "I can assure you, I have not forgotten my toothbrush."


Virgo bit his lip, "I think I might have forgotten mine..."


Ophiuchus sighed, "Well, looks like I'm gonna have to kiss you before your breath smells." 


She launched herself onto Virgo's lap and kissed him hard on the lips. Virgo seemed stunned for only a moment before putting his hands on her waist and kissing her back. Cancer got off the bench quickly and moved over to where Aries and Libra were standing. "Damn, they're really going for it." He said quietly. Libra giggled and poked Ophiuchus, "Stop that before you get caught!"


When Ophiuchus pulled away, Virgo muttered "It would be worth the detention."


"Not if you miss my party!" Ophiuchus stood up and waved at them as she started leaving. "I'm off to remind the others, cya!"


With that, she was off. "Looking a bit hot there, Virgo." Aries joked.


"Yeah, well..." Virgo seemed lost for words and he blushed a deeper crimson.


The bell rang and the playground started to empty. "See you guys in History after form then." Aries headed to his form room, in the opposite directions to his friends.




Taurus p.o.v


Taurus' stomach gurgled as the register was being called. She hated missing breakfast, but she had slept through her alarm and had only just gotten to school in time. Her stomach growled again, and Gemini, who was next to her, tried hard to ignore it and pretend she hadn't heard anything, but a small laugh escaped her mouth. "I'm so hungry." She muttered to her.


"Really?" Gemini smirked.


Taurus' stomach growled even louder this time. She tried to bend over slightly to muffle the sound. She felt someone poke her to her left. Sagittarius leant towards her and whispered, "I have some chocolate in my bag, if you want. Make an excuse to get it."


Taurus felt a rush of gratitude towards her friend. "Miss," She said to the teacher, "I left my P.E kit in the playground, can I get it?"


"Of course." The teacher said.


Taurus left quickly before her stomach made another noise. She found Sagi's blue superdry bag on a hook and opened it quickly to found the chocolate. As to not be disturbed, she went to the toilets and went in. She ripped it open and started eating. Never had chocolate ever tasted so good. The sweet richness filled her mouth and warmed her aching insides. After she had devoured it all (in less than 5 minutes) she washed her hands and mouth and returned to class. She felt slightly sick, but she fought down the nausea and sat down. She gave Sagittarius' hand a quick squeeze as she took a seat.


They still had some time before first period. She, Gemini, Sagittarius and Aquarius were sat around a table, talking about everything and nothing. Suddenly, Aquarius piped up, "I bought a game of truth or dare for tonight."


"You did what?" Taurus asked loudly.


"It was a total disaster last time!" Gemini agreed.


"Haha not really..." Sagittarius said, winking at Aquarius, whose cheeks had turned a cute pink colour. Taurus and Gemini exchanged cheeky looks and said nothing, observing the adorable couple.


"We should still do it. It was fun." Sagittarius said, pushing her red glasses up her nose in a cute nerd kind of way.


"You made me kiss Capricorn!" Taurus said in retaliation. 


Aquarius leaned in slightly, "He is kinda hot though."


Sagittarius hit her girlfriend with the book she was holding, "Oi, behave."


"Sorry mother." Aquarius smirked.


Taurus sighed, "Fine, as long as I don't get dared to kiss anyone. It's gross."


"You're not doing it right then." Sagittarius shrugged.


"We could give you a demonstration if you want." Aquarius said seductively.


RIIIIING. The bell rang. 'Saved by the bell' Taurus thought as they left for their first class. As much as she loved her best friends' relationship, she did not want to see it in person. All the kissy kissy is sloppy, in her optinion.
