A big house party with a crowded kitchen

"You guys should've come upstairs with us," Taurus says as he takes off his white shirt, and picks out a black sleeveless shirt, "Capricorn got a boner."

Leo chuckles, "Who put him in that situation," Leo picks out a black full-sleeved shirt, puts it on, and leaves the first few buttons undone. And then he puts on a pair of white pants.

The two signs were in their room, dressing up for Arthur's party.

"A guard," Taurus says nonchalantly.

"Who would've thought?" Leo laughs.

"Yeah," Taurus says, "I mean, at the very least, I thought Virgo would put him in that kind of situation."

Leo runs his hands through his comparatively long hair, which rests a bit above his shoulders and a little below his ear, he pondered if he should bring Cancer up, but he let it slide when a knock was heard against the door.

"Come in," Leo says.

Cancer opens the door, and her eyes slightly widen when they land on Taurus.

She clears her throat, "Uh, right," She shakes her head, "Ophiuchus wants you guys down, everyone's waiting for you."

Leo looks at Taurus, who was smiling wide when he saw her.

"Let's go?" Taurus looks at Leo, who simply nodded in response.

Taurus walks out the door, followed by Leo, and they all head down the stairs, led by Cancer.

"Finally," Ophiuchus says, "Took you guys long enough."

"Hey," Taurus says, looking around, then he points at himself, "It took some time, obviously, but at least Leo and I are treats to look at."

Aquarius's eyes leave Cancer and subtly brush across Leo. Leo's eyes meet hers and she looks away, and smiles as Cancer walks to her.

"Let's get going then," Ophiuchus says, shooing them, "Come on, get into the car."

The signs leave the mansion and get into the limo, and this time, Capricorn chooses to drive, with Ophiuchus riding shotgun.

Aquarius and Cancer were sitting beside each other, as usual, and Aquarius pulled out her phone to show Cancer the picture she had taken yesterday, "Isn't this the cutest thing ever?"

Cancer's eyes widen, "I slept on Taurus's shoulder? And you didn't wake me up?"

"He didn't seem to mind, he even tried to make it comfortable for you, from what I could tell," Aquarius smiled, watching Cancer blush, "And when we got back, he offered to get you to our room, but I helped you back instead. I kind of regret it, now that I think about it."

Cancer blinked, still blushing, "Oh."

"He's very sweet, Cancer," Aquarius says, "And I know you like him."

Cancer sighs, "Yeah, maybe I do...but I need to think it through before making any moves."

Aquarius nodded, respecting her choice, "Take your time."

The limo rolled into Raphael's mansion, he lived nearby anyway, but it was too far to walk.

The signs all got out, and after showing the bodyguards their invitations, they all walked in.

Taurus looked around for Arthur and he spotted him in the middle of the crowd, smiling at the other guests, thanking them after receiving wishes and gifts. Arthur caught Taurus's eyes, and he waved at Taurus. Taurus waved back. Arthur mouthed that he'll get to them soon.

Raphael suddenly appeared in front of the twelve zodiacs and their leader, "Hello, fellas, I'm so glad you could make it." He smiled.

Raphael was a nice guy. Fell under a nepotistic category, but he was a really sweet man, despite the fact that he nearly risked his son's friends' lives to get him a gift.
