Who We Are (A Zodiac Story)

POV: Scorpio

I let out a quick explosion of air to forcefully remove the hair from my mouth. Practically suffocating, my eyes opened to white fluffy hair covering my entire face.

Right, Aquarius.

My eyes widen in realization...

Holy fuck, Aquarius is in my bed.

I found myself instantly recalling the night before when she asked me if she could stay in my room.

I flipped her hair over and out of my face, scanning a single hand on her waist and her arms that were wrapped tightly across my torso with her legs in between one of mine.

After a few seconds, she woke up as well, and I assumed it was Capricorn's doing. Waking us up in the celestial order of the zodiac.

She groaned, as his mind control didn't allow her to go back to sleep.

I chuckle, "Morning."

"Hey." She mutters in my chest.

Though I wished we could've stayed like that for longer, we were given no choice but to get ready for school.

...

"I'll see you later," she waves before suddenly disappearing. My door swung open and then closed and I assumed she must've left out.

"Aqua?" I called out in case she secretly was peeping me get undressed. The thought brought a chuckle to my lips.

Who am I kidding? I don't care.

I brushed my teeth, cleaned my face, and did the usual hygiene stuff. I took a quick shower today, usually, I take long ones but I needed to be the first one at breakfast.

Taurus was cooking and there was no way I was letting anyone take all the goods.

I then rushed to change into my uniform, throwing on my tie. Not bothering to put on my shoes, I grabbed them along with my backpack as I ran out the door.

Fuck, I forgot to comb my hair.

I hurriedly retreated inside, heading straight for the bathroom. Inside, I reached for my comb off the sink before running out of my room again. I raced to the kitchen, practically sliding in with my socks.

But to my surprise, Taurus wasn't there. Instead, Capricorn was the one bringing large amounts of food to the table.

I chuckled sarcastically, "Where the hell is Taurus?"

Capricorn looks up, surprised to see me of all people be the first one out.

"You just missed him." He tells me.

"Oh, so he cooked then?" I asked, making sure I didn't do all that work for nothing.

"Yeah..." he trails off, scanning my messy demeanor. "I was generous enough to let him go back to sleep."

I throw my backpack and shoes down before pulling a chair from the table, happily taking a seat, and filling my plate with a variety of options.

"Good morning!" A voice calls out.

"Hey, Aquarius." Capricorn greets her.

I quickly whipped my head around. She looked preppy in her neatly ironed uniform and her cheerful expression added to her level of cuteness.

I freeze, realizing my hair hasn't been combed out yet and my shoes aren't even on.

"Looks like you're in a better mood than yesterday. Something good happened?" He asks with a smile.

"Let's just say I woke up on the right side of the bed." she grins.

I chuckle, allowing my comb to pull back the wacky strands of hair.
