10 : It Smells Like Lemon

"So do you guys want to sleepover? Or...?" Sagittarius asked, looking around the room.

Leo and Aries grinned "Sure! It's a waste to missing having great time in this castle!" the jock said. Leo nodded.
Cancer rolled his eyes.

"We need to tell mom first, Aries," Cancer said, pulling out his phone from his jeans pocket. Aries have him a thumb up when he dialled their mother.

"How about you guys?" Leo asked, looking at the Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo.

"My parents are out of town for this week. I guess it's fine," Virgo said.

"Ah. Aunty and Uncle go with ma and pa too right?" Capricorn asked. The nerd responded with a short yes.

"Easy to say everyone in here are agree to have a sleepover!" Scorpio announced, clapping. Pisces beside her just giggled as she stared out of the window.

"That's cool, but...," Sagittarius turned to Libra "...your house is just across the road. Do you want to sleepover here or return back to your house?"

The black skin girl smiled "Here. But me, Aqua and Gem have to go back there to change clothes."

"We sometimes do sleepover at Lib's place. So we have our extra clothes there for your information," Aquarius explained.

"That's decided then," Gemini clapped his hands "We see you in thirty minutes. Let's go girls," the pink hair male said, spun around with a failed hair flip. Libra giggled and shook her head, snaking her hand around Aquarius's arm as the blue girl does the same.

After the three left, silence followed suit. Then they all mind their own business. Sagittarius have asked for few extra new clothes for them, who surprised that he managed to required them in short moment. Their old clothes have been taken by the maids to be wash.

Sagittarius was one of the few who changed his clothes early. He wear a light blue shirt with pajama pants that have cat prints on it. Laying on the bed with Leo by his side, he stared at the ceiling with mixed emotions.

How should he felt this? He just involved with a murder case that no one ever know except his classmates and now all his classmates have involve with it too. How must he react to this? Will his parents be upset? Will his parents disown him like they did to his sister?

Will he ever regain his normal life again?

"Hey, you're spacing off," a voice snapped him. He turned around and saw Leo, who laying beside him "Thinking about it again?"

He sighed. There was no point hiding it from Leo. She too involved with this crap.

"Yeah. I mean, how can you just take your mind off it?"

She tugged her lips, forcing a tired smile "I dunno. This never suppose to happen to us."

He agreed "Yeah. I should be doing my soccer practise with Aries now. But I'm here, so as you."

"Hey it's not that bad. About us being here. Beside, we announced it as a sleepover with classmates. Aren't that great?"

"I guess, if we cut off about the murder, then.... I guess it will be pretty good," Sagittarius said, trying to sooth his panicking mind.

Leo hummed, staring at the ceiling with him. She hummed a song that randomly appeared in her head. Sagittarius doesn't mind that, tho there were a breaking tone in her song. He actually quiet enjoyed it. Hearing a melody while relaxing on his bed with his friend. He closed his eyes, enjoying every moments and minutes.
