Zodiac

Detention

**POV: Aries**

"Oh, I-um..." Cancer stuttered.  I was barely able to control the blush that was threatening to cover my neck and cheeks. Fuck Taurus. He knew I liked her, I didn't try to hide it from him, we were mates. At least we were mates- before he did this! I was nearly ready to ask for a new roommate... Leo seemed like a cool guy...

My thoughts of new roommates was interrupted by Cancer getting up and sitting down in front of me. She smelled like lavender and her hair was in a small braid which fell on her shoulder. She had on a purple and white onesie and she sat on her heels in front of me, looking down to hide a blush.

Out of the corner of my eye I saw Taurus whisper something to Virgo, who nodded and whispered something to Gemini. I didn't have time to question it, or even turn my head, because before I knew it, a pair of soft lips had come in contact with mine. At first I almost pulled away in shock, but before I could do that, my head snapped back into reality and remembered that the pair of lips belonged to the cute girl that had walked into class for the first time that morning. I started kissing her back, but before long was brought back into the world around us by someone clearing their throat.

Cancer quickly pulled away, looking over my shoulder at whoever had made the sound. I turned around, only to be faced by Mr. Richards.

"What are you two doing out of the dorms, it's nearly curfew, and what were you thinking, kissing in the commons!? You know this school has a no PDA policy!"

"I- I didn't- uh-" Cancer started stuttering again.

"It's my fault!" I cut her off. "I told her to come down here right before curfew, I'm sorry."

"Well, you both have a detention for clear violation of school policy!" He announced.

"Yes sir..." I said, rolling my eyes as I stood up. I offered Cancer my hand to help her up. We walked off to the dorms without another word.

"Fuck you dude," I mumbled as I walked through the door of my dorm.

"What?" Taurus asked, pulling out his earbuds.

"I said fuck you," I responded, falling onto my bed.

"How'd it go with the newbie?" He asked, turning around in his chair to face me.

"Well, we both have detention tomorrow with Richards..."

"Hey, bonding time bro! Did you hit it off with the kiss?"

"I don't know, and thanks for running off, by the way!"

He mumbled something about "which one, Mikey or Gerard?" before laughing at himself. He finally responded with, "No problem bro, and I hope you two hit it off! Should we listen again?" He asked, pointing towards the wall that separated our room from the girls'.

"You can do whatever you want, man, but I'm going to bed," I said, crawling under the duvet and turning of my lamp, the room going black.
