Starcrossed

Flour faces & band-aids

~ Sagittarius

'Hop on!' I gestured for Leo to jump on my back while we walked home, she shook her head. 'No way, what if I fall off?' 'I won't let you'
'Sagittarius. You are not going to give me a piggyback home'
'Well, try and stop me' I pulled her on top of me and began running, while she started screaming and chuckling at the same time. 'Sag! Put me down!' she shouted, I just looked back at her, winked and ran faster. 'Please, Sag look out!' she shouted, but it was too late. I didn't see the loose tile sticking up so I tripped and fell, pulling Leo with me into the fall.

'Ow! My knee!' Leo pouted, her knee was scraped and tiny droplets of blood welled up in it. My elbow was a little scraped up too, and I would probably have some bruises tomorrow, but we'll be fine. 'I'm sorry, are you okay?' I muttered with an apologetic look. She rolled her eyes and took my hand, I helped her up. 'We'll put a band-aid on that when we get home' I said, pointing at her scraped knee. 'Are you okay?' Pisces said, running towards us. 'Yeah, we're fine, just some scratches and bruises' I shrugged it off and kept walking, when we finally arrived at my house. 'Ah, home sweet home' I sighed as I twisted the key inside the lock and Leo and I stepped inside. 'Bye guys!' Leo waved at Pisces and Cancer, who lived a few houses away. They smiled and waved back as I closed the door.

'Finally alone' Leo mumbled and sat down on the couch. 'Well princess, what's for dinner tonight?' I asked her, she thought deeply. 'Mmh, I'm thinking pancakes' she suggested, my smile dropped. 'But I wanted noodles!' I pouted, she rolled her eyes and took out a coin. 'Heads or tails?' she asked 'Tails' 'Okay, so if it's tails, we get noodles, and heads, we bake pancakes' she grinned as she flipped the coin and caught it. She slowly opened her hand and showed heads. I frowned and crossed my arms while Leo did her small victory dance.

'Well, let's get started shall we?' I pouted and she shoved me. I got the flour and a great idea popped into my head. I took a bit of flower in my hand and tapped Leo on her shoulder. 'What?' she answered, turning around. I blew the flour in her face, and she coughed and almost dropped the milk. 'Sag! You bastard!' she ranted while I doubled over in laughter. 'I-I'm sorry' I managed to apologize in between laughs. 'Ugh, I have to take a shower later anyways' she shrugged and started mixing the batter. I took a pan and switched on a light. 'Maybe it's a little tight in here for two, why don't you go upstairs and take a shower while I continue?' I suggested, she smiled and pecked my cheek. 'Thanks' she whispered, causing goosebumps to spread over my arms. She ran upstairs and I watched her, while flipping a pancake.

I whistled a tune while I baked pancake after pancake, and when I had a nice small stack, I cut a few of them into a heart. I think I'm totally nailing this boyfriend thing.

She came downstairs, her wet hair dripping and forming a wet stain on her shirt. 'Aww, you have some heart ones in there!' she cooed, and pecked my cheek while slinging her arm around my neck. 'Enjoy' I blew her a kiss while quickly grabbing the sugar before she could. 'You totally cheated!' she pouted, I winked and she rolled her eyes. She looked at her knee and shrieked. 'What? What is it?' I asked, walking over to her.

'It's bleeding again, it almost stained my pants!' she growled. 'Sheesh, women and their clothes' I sighed while grabbing a band-aid and sticking it on her leg. 'There, can we enjoy my kick-ass pancakes now?' I chuckled and she glared, though she could not surpress a smile. 'Idiot' she mumbled, and took a bite. 'Mmh, those are delicious!' 'I know, right?' 'Shut up, you!' We laughed simultaneously again, producing the most amazing sound I ever heard. When she finished her pancake, she moved her hazel eyes towards the sugar, but I snatched it away again. 'Hey! Not again!' she sighed in despair. 'Come and get it babe' I mused, she walked over to me and brushed her lips against mine. I leaned in, but she shoved me off my chair, grabbing the sugar and sitting down again. 'Ow! Now who's the cheater?' I glared at her, she gave me a sweet smile and a wink.

After we were done eating, we cleaned up and sat on the couch, watching some TV. Her eyelids were drooping, and she fell asleep on my stomach. I played with her hair while listening to her steady breathing. She jumped up and hit my nose with her head. 'Ow! Why did you jump up like that!' I growled, quickly pinching my nose to stop the blood. 'Oh gosh I'm so sorry, wait here!' she stammered and ran off to the kitchen. She got a paper towel for me, and a wet napkin. I pinched my nose while she cleaned the dried-up blood from my chin, and teased me by lingering at my lips. I let go of my nose, the bleeding had finally stopped. She still cleaned my lips, agonizingly slowly, even though I knew they were clean.

I rolled my eyes, grabbed her face and kissed her, her arms lowered and wrapped around my waist. I broke the kiss and wiggled my eyebrows. 'If you want a kiss, just tell me' I teased, she softly shoved me onto my back, climbing on top of me and kissing me.
