Starcrossed

Party time!

~ Pisces

I kept ringing Cancer's doorbell, desperately wanting to see her in the dress. 'Jeez, Cancer! I'm coming in!' I yelled. Since we were best friends and lived close to each other, we kept each other's keys just in case. After a few minutes, the door opened and there she was, my beautiful best friend, her blonde, wavy hair falling down her shoulders, a big, confident smile on her face. 'Girl, you look awesome!' I clasped my hands together. She ran down the stairs, clutching her purse. 'You look amazing too' she winked and we linked our arms while we walked to Leo's house, where the girls would come together before we left.

'You know what? I think I'm going to find you a guy tonight' Cancer casually stated, I whipped my head around. 'What?' 'Yes, you deserve someone that loves you as much as I do' 'That's really sweet Canc, but I'm happy single' 'Babe, I've known you for fifteen years, do you really think you can fool me?' she chuckled. 'I'm serious! I don't need a guy' I blushed. She doesn't have to know I still sort of have feelings for Scorpio... 'And besides, if I meet a guy, I don't want it to be at some party where there's lots of alcohol involved' I added, and meant it. 'You have a point there' Cancer admitted. We arrived at Leo's doorstep. I rang the doorbell, and Leo immediately opened it, glowing in her bright red dress. 'Hey girls, awesome you're here!' she hugged both of us. 'Leo, you look beautiful!' Cancer complimented her, Leo beamed. 'Thanks!' Leo did indeed look very pretty, with winged eyeliner and fiery red lipstick matching her dress. 'Let's go inside!' I said, and stepped inside.

'Pi!' Virgo squealed and almost tackled me in a hug. 'Virgo, hi!' I chuckled while her bun tickled my face. 'Oh, your dress!' I turned her around, her lightly glittering, minty green dress twirled with her, she chuckled. 'You look so good!' I hugged her and checked Taurus out. 'Taur! I still love that dress on you' I winked at her while I hugged her too, smelling a whiff of her vanilla perfume. 'Gem!' she wore a black skirt and halter top, and had a sparkling golden see-through jacket wrapped around her. 'Ahh Pi! You look good!' we hugged each other as well.
Leo asked for silence and spoke; 'All right ladies, before we go, the basic rules. Number 1: if one of us gets drunk and pukes, someone makes sure she doesn't puke all over herself. Rule number 2: if someone can't walk anymore, she is to be carried by her boyfriend and/or one of us.' I sighed. We heard this so many times already, but it's good to have rules for this kind of stuff. Of course, Virgo and Gem came up with the idea.

'Last rule, number three: if something happens, we stick together until the problem is solved. All agreed?' 'Agreed' we all repeated. 'Let's go then!' I walked next to Taurus, to try and keep her mind off Libra as much as possible.

'Gosh, Aries, are you done showing off?' Libra sighed, I twirled around the pole one more time, and jumped down. 'A pole dancer, are we?' Cap nudged me. 'Ah well, you just need M&M.' I pointed out, he raised one eyebrow. 'M&M?' 'Moves and muscles' 'Ah' he chuckled and shook his head. 'So, you wondering how Gemini looks?' he asked, I sratched the back of my neck. 'Ah-uh-m, yes, sure' I stammered. 'And Virgo?' I threw back, hoping to catch him off guard. 'Of course' he casually answered.

We arrived, and much to our surprise, the girls were already there. My jaw dropped at the sight of Gem. She was wearing a black top with a glittery jacket, and a skirt with a split, which added a flirty touch, driving me crazy. She beamed when she caught me staring. 'Hey, you look great!' she pecked my cheek while rolling up the sleeves of my black button-down. 'You look so good Gem' I breathed while pulling her in for a proper kiss. 'Thanks babe' 'I'm serious. That skirt, and your hair... wow' I breathed. She chuckled and smiled.

'Everybody ready?' Cap asked, we cheered, everyone but Scorpio, because he was still gazing at Cancer, who was wearing a low-cut... dress? That's a first. 'Hey, close your mouth before you start drooling all over her' Sag joked, we all laughed, and Scorpio awkwardly laughed it off, too. We walked inside, the bass of the music vibrating in my chest. Gem, Leo, Taurus and Virgo started pulling each other to the dancefloor, and Sag and I followed them. The others hung out at the bar for a bit. I danced with Taurus, making crazy moves, and then moved along to Gem, who was dancing with Leo. I tapped Leo on her shoulder and gave her a questioning look, she nodded understandingly and stepped aside so I could dance with Gemini.

She wasn't the best dancer, but it didn't matter. She moved her hips, closed eyes, her straight hair swishing with every move of her head. After a few drinks, the other boys entered the dancefloor too, so it was my time to have a drink. I took a shot, and another one, and one more, just in case. I confidently walked over to the others and made them form a circle around me. When I felt the beat drumming through me, I started breakdancing, something I haven't done in a long time. Everyone cheered while I spun, their faces becoming a spinning blur.

I stopped my spinning and stood up, Scorpio patting me on the back. I slung an arm around him. 'Come on, I know you can do it too' I chuckled, slightly swaying back and forth. He shook his head with a dropped jaw, and pointed at the circle. I moved my gaze, and there were Cancer, Pisces and Virgo, dancing and killing it. Damn. I didn't know they were dancers too. I nudged Aqua and looked at him until he approvingly nodded. I told Cap to ask the DJ for a nice dancing track, he went. Aqua and I stepped back into the circle, the DJ turned One two step by Ciara. The girls cheered, I frowned, Aqua shrugged. I guess we'll have to make do with what we have.
