Fridays at Zodiac Academy were always rather different. Aquarius told Taurus that Friday's were known as Choice Day, and were a lot more fun than the other days. For the first four periods of the day, there were different topics that you could do something in. For example, in the STEM group, they would make robots and code for them, and in the Art group, they could create snow globes out of Mason Jars. There was always something new every Friday, so you could change the group every time. The last three periods of the day were called 'Caste System'. The kids with 97%+ averages through the whole school would go to an ice cream social for the rest of the day. The other kids, depending on their grades, would have other activities and fun stuff to do. Overall, Friday's were always something to look forward to, as long as you worked hard.
Since Taurus had only just arrived, she didn't have any grades yet, but she could still attend the social, which is what all new kids were allowed to do. Aquarius was a straight A-plus student, so both the girls would party together. Taurus wasn't sure if Aqua was excited anymore, having gone to the social every week, but Taurus was pumped and ready.
During the day, Taurus went for cooking club, where she made and ate chocolate strawberries. The club would always make snacks and foods for the afternoon's social, so everything was always fresh and handmade. Even though she was the only GT kid in cooking club, Taurus and the five other kids in the club had the times of their lives.
At 12:30, everyone was called to the auditorium foyer, where each person would be put in their group. Taurus hurriedly put her things in her locker and rushed to the foyer. Before long, everyone was in their assigned groups and going to their destination.
Taurus and Aquarius laughed the whole way to the gym, where the social would take place. They giggled, talking about random things quite loudly actually. They didn't even bother to give the other kids, who were glaring at the two, a time of their day.
One kid muttered, "GT kids think they can do whatever. It's always GT that gets everything. And they don't even give us a second."
Another nodded. "So true! Like, it's as if they are on a different planet that we can't touch. School treats them the same way, so why wouldn't they do that?"
A boy groaned and exclaimed, "Look guys. They think they are so cool, not even bothering to listen to our complaints."
Aqua rolled her eyes and groaned at the boy. "Every day, Michael. I'm sorry that I'm gifted. And if I want to treat life like its a party, then I can do it. Why don't you and your little kiddy friends go play elsewhere?" She shooed them with her hand and turned to Taurus. "I swear they are jealous. And it's SO ANNOYING!" Aqua threw her hands into the air in irritation.
Taurus frowned. "Well, maybe they have their reasons. It does seem that GT kids get everything. After all, every GT kid just got a pass into the social. And we don't even get yelled at in PE. I don't know about the coaches here, but at my old school, they got upset about EVERYTHING. The coaches here seem to be pretty chill with us."
Michael frowned. "It's just you guys! They get upset at us for walking even one step. You guys could walk the whole way and be okay."
Taurus pointed a finger at Michael. "Have you heard of what happened with Coach Robertson?"
Michael nodded vigorously. His eyes suddenly lit up. "You were the one who knocked him out?!"
Taurus blushed slightly. "Well, I actually didn't do anything much."
