"Gemini, just shut up before I freaking punch you." Aries told me, raising a fist threateningly.
"Was it something I said?" I ask innocently—though I'm not as good as Cancer, I can pull off innocent pretty well.
"It was everything you said, sweetie." Virgo informed me, rubbing her temples.
"Who's up for some ice cream?" Cancer stood up quickly from her place on the floor, and started swaying as the blood traveling down dizzied her.
"Always one for a dramatic subject change, huh?" Virgo muttered under her breath.
"You can bet your bottom buck," Sagittarius smirked.
We start out the door and to the 12—yes, there's 12 of us—bikes in the front yard. "Fro yo or ice cream? All for ice cream, raise your hands." Aries called and raised his own hand. My hand shot up, and so did Cancer, Aquarius, Pisces and Taurus'.
Aries groans loudly, "That's half and half. Do you want to see if Orion or Cassiopeia is in?"
Libra wrinkled his nose, "Not Orion. He's a jerk towards Cancer." Cancer blushed a bit and looked down. "Cassiopeia it is," Aries takes out his phone and calls her, "Cassy, you up for ice cream? Oh. You like fro yo. One sec -" he puts his hand over the speaker and cusses under his breath, "Yeah, no, everything's fine. No, no, we had a vote earlier, half and half, you broke the tie. Alright. Fresh and Fruity sound good? Yeah? Alright. Okay, bye.
"I guess we're getting fro yo," He said, earning triumphant cheers from Virgo, Capricorn, Sagittarius, Scorpio, Libra and Leo.
"I don't see why I didn't get an extra vote," Leo grumbled under his breath. "It is my birthday."
Taurus rolled his eyes, "It's always one of our birthdays, Leo."
"But this is my birthday." He moans.
"Just shut up." Scorpio says quietly. Leo huffs and crosses his arms before uncrossing them and climbing onto his bike.
"At least I have a normal name," I heard Leo mutter as he began to ride off, the rest of us not too far behind.
