Chapter 2 ~ Time to go

No notes, just read the chapter. Thank you for the reads!

Aries POV

I was standing outside my room, taking a look around the empty space that had been home for the last 10 years.

"Hey," I turned around to see my foster brother Draco. This was a surprise, he had never really started a conversation, it was usually me making sure he was alright.

"Hey bro, you gonna miss me?" I joked. The next second my brother's arms were wrapped around me, hugging me tightly, this was a big surprise since he never showed much affection.

"Don't take this a some sign, ok?" He said, not looking at me.

"Ok, just..." I paused for a moment, taking a breath. "Know that I love you,"

"Yeah, yeah" He said. "I just want to go to the school,"

"Maybe I can put in a word," I smiled.

"ARIES! YOU NEED TO GO NOW!" My mother yelled from downstairs. I quickly ran down the stairs to see my mother crying. "I'll miss you, I know I haven't been the best but I'll try to be better for Draco,"

"Miss you mother," I said before walking out onto the street. Leo, I thought. He must be going to the school. I hadn't talked to him in a while, well more like 12 years. I walked over to the black limousine and opened the door.

Taurus POV

I had packed, and now here I was laying on my bed, looking at the ceiling. Each minute felt so long, each second passing by felt like a year. Sure I was going to miss stuff, but there would be so much new. I hope they have good food, I thought.

"Taurus?" I recognised the voice as Delphinus', or Delphi as I called her. We had grown close, and I treated her like I would with a sister. "You have to leave now" Her voice broke, as if she was trying to hold back tears.

"Hey Delphi, are you going to miss me?" I teased. I tried to joke to cover the sadness.

"Shut up! Just promise that you'll visit," She said, not looking me in the eye.

"How could I forget? You know, you could get in," I encouraged.

"How? You know how rare it is right? Or is something lose in there?" 

"Hey!" I said, pretending to be offended.

"Taurus! Your ride is here!" I heard Ms. Sampson's voice say to me. I looked to Delphi, trying to restrain my tears.

"I know you'll get in, If I can anyone here can," I said stubbornly, before walking out the bedroom. I took a look at the hall where I had many meals, laughed so many times. I turned around to the door and saw every child from the orphanage standing out there.

"Taurus, you have no idea how proud all of us are of you," I heard Mr. Smith say, he had taught me how to cook, a skill I'd valued. I walked out the door and decided to hug every kid there. I awkwardly hugged Pavo, my bully, to my surprise he tightly held be like a brother. I finally headed over to the fancy limo and looked at the building I'd lived in for more than a decade. I finally opened the door after blinking back my tears.

Gemini POV

I was facetiming Libra currently.

"Do I look ok? My lipstick isn't smudged right?" A vain Libra said. Most of the time people see Libra as an angel, but when your her friend she is like a literal drama queen.

"OH MY GOD WOMAN!" I screamed. "IT'S FINE!"

"Watch your tone young lady," She sarcastically said.
