Zodiac Book

Romeos and Juliets (Part 1)

"O, Romeo, Romeo-- Why am I playing Juliet?" Leo's sweet and innocent look instantly changed to a dark and murderous expression. He glared down at the blue haired girl, who only shrugged in her seat.

"Because you're just that fabulous?" she said in more of a question.

"Ugh, Pisces. I know I'm fabulous, but putting me in a dress?!" he shook his head, "It's not appropriate for me!"

"Well sorry Leo, the others don't want to play Juliet... Or know how to act."

"Ugh! I blame the lack of girls in this group!"

"Well, Virgo is the only real girl here..." Pisces quietly mumbled, sinking back into the soft cushion of the chair.

Still, the lion was able to pick up the girl's name from the fish's lips. "There! Why don't you ask Virgo to play the role of Juliet?!"

"Like I'm going to kill myself!" Yelled Virgo, who was sitting right next to Pisces. "Besides, I don't want revert back to a thirteen year old. Those years of puberty were just terrible." Yes. Apparently Zodiacs go through puberty too.

Pisces gestured to her sister sign, showing Leo why Virgo shouldn't play Juliet. Sighing at this, Leo removed the brown wig and dropped it to the floor. "Who's playing the role of Romeo then?" he asked.

"Sagittarius."

"That's a terrible person to play Romeo." Gemini, who had also been sitting one of the theater seats, commented.

Pisces looked at the other gender changing sign, "And how so?"

"Sagittarius is so positive, loud, happy, and wouldn't dare think about suicide. Romeo on the other hand, is sad, lonely, and too desperate for love... Like Scorpio."

"I bet if Scorpio were here, he'd kill you." snorted the lion. This caused Gemini to only glare at him.

Virgo leaned from her seat, to get a better view of the brown haired female. "Scorpio isn't desperate for love. He just hates it." she said.

Pisces instantly stopped Gemini, before she could say another word. "Alright then, how are we supposed to do this play? It's already hard enough that we can't find a Romeo or Juliet!" her voice sounded so desperate, that the other three signs felt a bit guilty.

"Sorry Pi..." Leo climbed down the stage, "But non of us are willing to play. Heck, most of us can't even act." With a pat on the shoulder, Leo made his way to the bathroom. "I'll go get changed."

Once he was gone, Gemini and Virgo looked over to the younger looking girl, who hung her head in shame. "Come on Pisces, cheer up!" Said Gemini with sing song voice.

"Yeah. But, why do you want us to play Romeo and Juliet in the first place?"

Heaving a heavy sigh, Pisces looked up and frowned at the strawberry blonde female. "It's for Capricorn. He said that the story seemed interesting, that he would actually want to see the play. The same goes for Aquarius."

"I see." Doing the same as Leo --Patting Pisces on the shoulder-- Virgo smiled, "Well, it's not necessary for you to do that. Maybe if we the time, we can see the play in another place." and like that, Virgo and Gemini leave right after.

"Another place?" whispered the water sign. Suddenly, she chuckled an evil tone, and a smirk makes its way to her face. "Yeah we'll see the play... In another place, indeed." Thinking she's been standing in the theater for too long, she leaves while still whispering nonsense to herself. "Have a nice dream everybody..."

"Pisces has been giggling a lot, lately." Capricorn sat next to Aquarius on the couch, handing him the cup of coffee that he had brewed up for him.
