"Great, it's raining," Aries pouted as she looked out the window. "Now we can't go outside."

"Now I have an excuse to stay inside and read," Capricorn said under her breath.

Virgo grinned, "We can finally explore the house's library!"

"I might have already looked," Capricorn replied not looking up from her book.

"You're no fun," Virgo frowned.

"Not that books don't sound like fun," Libra cut in, "but what are we going to do now? I was going to go out."

Scorpio raised an eyebrow, "On a date?"

"W-what! No!" she blushed. "I was going to go shopping!"

"Sure..." Scorpio smirked.

"Shut up!" Libra scowled.

"Okay!" Pisces interrupted. "So what are we going to do today?"

"We could watch a movie," Taurus suggested.

"Aw, that's no fun," Leo whined.

Taurus crossed her arms. "Then you can do something else. Who else would want to watch a movie with me?" Cancer, Gemini, and Libra rose their hands.

"I would like to check out the theater room," Gemini added.

"Okay, so that's settled!" Taurus said happily. "Cancer, Gem, Libra, and I will watch a movie in the theater room and you guys can figure out what you're going to do." The four all stood up and left the living room. The remaining eight signs watched them leave.

"Anyone got any other ideas?" Leo asked.

Capricorn stood up. "I'm going to the library," she announced.

Virgo leaped up, "I'll come too."

"I have nothing better to do," Scorpio muttered as she stood up as well.

"Sounds like fun!" Pisces jumped up.

"I guess we got a group," Capricorn said. The four signs left leaving the three fire signs with the air sign.

"Who wants to go outside?" Sagittarius spoke up.

"What?! I thought the whole point of this was to decide what to do other than going outside!" Aries exclaimed.

"I'll get my hair wet," Leo argued.

"What about you, Aquarius? You're the freaking Water Bearer, so you'll go outside, right?" Sagittarius said to the air sign.

"Um, I don't know..." he hesitated.

"Fine. If none of you want to join me, I guess I'll go by myself," Sagittarius walked opened the front door and headed out into the pouring rain.

"Sag!" Aries yelled. She looked out the window to see the Archer splashing around in the rain with no coat on. "I'm going to go out to get him." She took her bright red coat off its hook and pulled the hood over her hair. She stepped into the rain and went after Sagittarius. Aquarius and Leo watched her from the window.

"This isn't going to end well," Aquarius sighed.

Leo nodded, "You should go after her."

"Why me?" he protested.

"I don't want to mess up my hair," Leo ran his fingers through his golden hair. Aquarius rolled his eyes. He reached out and ruffled the Lion's hair. "Ach!"
