Hanging By A Thread

Chapter 4: Virgo

   Ring! Ring! Ring! I slowly get out of bed and put on the clothes I laid out the night before. I reach for my hat I had left on my desk. My hand touches nothing but a hatless desk top! Where is it? I swear I left it right here! Did i leave it somewhere else? I'll just borrow one of moms old ones.
   With my mind made up I quickly put on my boots and grabbed my bag. I opened my door and Taurus was standing there. Was he waiting for me? Was he STALKING me!?!
   "What are you doing!?!," I say jumping back.
   "I was just about to knock and check on you. You seemed really nervous yesterday when we talked about school. I just wanted to make sure you were ok," he answered as he lowered his right hand that was balled into a fist. How did I not see his hand?
   "Oh sorry, I didn't realize," I say in a low voice. My cheeks turn red with embarrassment. Suddenly I feel his arms wrap around me in a large embrace. I lay my head on his chest and let myself relax. "Truth is I am scared. I'm scared you and Capricorn are going to leave me and I'm gonna be alone,".
   "We will never leave you," he said as he moved so he could look into my eyes. "Well you are kinda smelly sometimes," he says snickering.
   I punch him in the shoulder, hard. "That's not funny!" He rubs his shoulder and starts bursting out laughing. His laugh always makes me laugh so I start laughing.
   Once we get downstairs I see my mom and my sister making breakfast. Then I notice something about my sister. Something she was wearing. My hat!
   "Camalies! You have my hat! Give it back," I yelled and I jumped at her but someone snatches me out of the air. I turn around and see Taurus and Capricorn holding me together. Taurus lets go so it's looser but Capricorn is stronger than me and holds me in place. Taurus walks over to Camalies as she yells no playfully and tries to get away from him with one hand holding that hat down on her head. He grabs her and takes the hat and brings it to me.
"Enough rough housing! Eat your breakfast and go to school you little monsters," my mom said playfully but we still obeyed.
Once we headed out Taurus said he would lead then Capricorn said he should. To keep them from fighting I said "I'll race you guys to school,". We lined up on a line in the side walk.
"Ready, Set, Go!," we yell together and start sprinting towards school.
I won of course. Taurus and Capricorn tied in second place like usual. We talk for a little bit before our first class. What is my first class anyways? Do me and Capricorn or Taurus have any classes together?
   "Hey guys what is your first class," I ask. I checked my own. I have homeroom then Advanced Elemental Studies.
   "I have math," Taurus says.
   "I have homeroom" Capricorn adds.
   "Cool me to,". We hear the warning bell and Me and Capricorn head to homeroom. Me and him sit next to each other and by one other girl named Aries. She seemed pretty cool but was kinda nosy.
"Are you two dating? Omg, I bet you are! You to are so cute together!," She said. Capricorn started to turn red.
"We aren't dating! We are just friends!," I respond quickly. The rest of the class was about the same. When the bell rings I head to Advanced Elemental Studies and Capricorn heads to English.
   When I get to the class I find the Earth arena. I start to explore it and get a good feel for it when I hear yelling. I turn around to see a girl with a really pretty braid and a face that is undiscribable. She is bending water to wrap a round an edgy looking boy. He has dark hair and a look of fear stricken across his face. Suddenly the girl lets the boy go and says something that I couldn't quite hear. When the teacher tells us to start practicing I obey.
   I was working on some of my defensive moves when I realize a boy was watching me. I remember someone saying his name. I think it's Leo. Are eyes meet and he quickly looks away.

Hey guys sorry this came out super late. We had some technical issues so I had to re-write this 4 times. I am publishing this on my brother birthday. I hope you like it. Follow and stick around for the chapters after this. Bai😜
