Starcrossed

Mansion - day 2.3

~ Gemini

We all spent the rest of the night watching a movie. Unfortunately, a scary one, but I didn't want to force the guys into watching a chickflick. And it miiiight have to do with me wanting to see the potential couples hugging each other in fear.

Sag and Leo were not afraid, but still sitting close to each other. Aqua and Pisces were hugging each other tightly, Taurus and Libra were sharing popcorn, and Aries wrapped his arm around me, which felt very warm.
Capricorn and Virgo were sharing a blanket, as for Cancer and Scorpio.... Uhm, well, they were the only ones in a chair on their own. They were next to each other, but the arms of the chairs formed a kind of border. Why are they so shy? Or in Scorpio's case, quiet? If it weren't for that, they would've been a couple already.

A jumpscare made me shock in my chair a little, Virgo and Cancer screamed. I looked away, at Aries, catching his gaze. I smiled and looked away, blushing. After another jumpscare, I couldn't handle it anymore. 'Who wants a drink?' I practically shouted and made a beeline for the kitchen. I took a few cups and took the bottle of coke, trying to fill the cups without spilling too much with my shaking hands.

'Do you need help?' I heard behind me, and jumped. I turned around to find Aries, rubbing the back of his neck. 'I-I'm sorry. Are you okay?' he said, looking at me. 'Yeah, I-I'm fine. Don't worry.' I stuttered, and filled another cup. 'Are you su-' '-Yes! Why?' I responded, looking at him. 'Because you're flooding a cup with coke' he pointed to the soda, spilling everywhere. I put the bottle down and face-palmed, then started cleaning it up. I took a shaky breath and awkwardly looked at Aries. 'I'll help you' he said, and smiled. 'Thanks' I said, and smiled back. I took the bottle, my hand still shaking. He placed his hands on mine, steadying them, so the bottle wasn't shaking anymore. His head was leaning on mine. Feeling him so close made me shiver. When the cups were full, he put the bottle back in the fridge, took a few cups and walked to the living room. 'Aries' I called him, he turned around. 'Thanks' I said, and meant it. He just smiled and walked along.
Typical.

I came in with the other cups and put them on the table. 'Thanks Gem' Cancer shakily said. I sat down next to Aries again, his arm wrapping around me.
I felt the muscles in his arm tighten when a girl in the movie screamed. I threw him a mocking are-you-scared look, he responded with an of-course-not glare, I rolled my eyes at him and he surprised me by pecking my lips, which turned into a passionate kiss.

'Get a room!' Sag shouted, Aries broke away to shout back: 'Shut it sasspants'. Leo gave Sag a longing look, but he didn't notice. Is Leo in love with Sag?! I looked at Aries and knew he saw it too, he winked.

~ Libra

I popped popcorn in my mouth, and felt something lightly hit my forehead. I threw a giggling Taurus a glare and focused on the movie again, but she threw another one at me, and another. I threw popcorn at her too, and so it went, until Taurus accidentally threw a popcorn behind me, where Scorpio sat. I cautiously looked behind me, but his chair was empty. I looked around, but he was nowhere to be seen, and Pisces was gone too!
'Where's Pisces?' I mouthed to Aquarius, he shrugged. Cancer's eyes were anxiously glued to the screen, so I guess she didn't see Scorpio or Pisces leave either. I silently stood up and walked to the front door, which was slightly ajar. I saw them, sitting on the front porch, staring at each other, getting closer. Are they about to.... Kiss?! I stumbled backwards and back to the living room when their lips touched.

I sat back down next to Taurus, she threw me a what's-wrong look, I just shook my head. Should I tell Cancer? Hell, should I tell anyone? I decided not to. It would only break Cancer's heart, and cause trouble.
Right?

Pisces stumbled into the room, looking dazed and confused. I took her arm and dragged her to the hallway without anyone noticing. 'Are you out of your mind? What the hell were you doing there with Scorpio?!' I whisper-yelled. 'I-I don't know, it just, happened...' she still looked confused.

#a few minutes ago#

I noticed Scorpio's spot was empty, so I went and looked for him, finding him outside on the porch. I sat next to him and looked at the starry sky. 'Is something wrong?' I asked him, moving my gaze to him. He shook his head. 'Just, sorting things out a little.' he curtly said. 'Are you okay?' I asked him, trying to make him open up, he just nodded, not taking his brown eyes off the stars. I took his chin to make him face me, he looked at me. 'Are you... sure?' I whispered, and brought my face a little closer, making butterflies flutter in my stomach. He nodded again and swallowed.
Our lips brushed, and I moved my head forward, kissing him. He went with it, but after a second or two, he pushed me away. Hurt and confused, I looked at him, he cursed under his breath and put his head in his hands, keeping his eyes on the ground. I ran back inside, covering my mouth in embarrassment.

#back to now#

Libra looked at me, shocked. 'You know Cancer likes him, and he likes her too' he hissed, tears blurred my vision. 'Yes, I do. I'm such a terrible person! What am I going to say?! Oh no... I kissed my best friend's crush!' I cried, Libra shushed me. 'I won't tell anyone, and I think you have to keep it a secret' he whispered, and walked back to the living room.

~ Libra

The movie was finally over, not that I payed any attention after seeing Pisces and Scorpio anyway.

Should we really keep it a secret? That way no one will be mad at Pisces, she is mad enough at herself. And Cancer won't be hurt. But isn't it wrong to lie? What if we did tell? It would only cause unrest, right? I snapped out of my thoughts because Taurus shoved me.
'Okay Libra, what's wrong?' she sighed, I shook my head 'Nothing'. She looked at me sarcastically. 'Yeah, right. You were deeply thinking about something, I could see it' she said, her dark blue eyes boring into mine. 'I was just thinking' I assured her, and helped her up. She didn't look convinced, but she left me alone anyway.
