Aries:
I walk into the house, nervous of everybody! I recently discovered I was gay over the summer and I'm really nervous about how the other zodiacs will take it. The zodiac house has been a tradition for years when the zodiacs turn 16 they go to the house until next summer. As I pull my car up the driveway, I hit a car up ahead I can tell it's Virgos car. I bite my lip as she marches toward my car anger all over her face. " Seriously Aries! You better have insurance! " she bites her lip. I smirk a little and she slowly starts smiling clearly trying not to laugh, just then she bursts into laughter.
" Fine! " she yells. " Just stop trying to kill my car! " she adds as she walks away and back to her car. I laugh and move over to the third out of twelve parking spots. Then somebody else comes out of Virgos car. I park my car and walk over to them. " Hey Virgo, is that your boyfriend? " I ask. Virgo turns around to face me and gives me a quizzical look, " You haven't met my brother? Aquarius? " she asks me. " Nope. " I shrug. She looks at Aquarius questioning him. He puts his hands in the air and surrenders. Virgo rolls her eyes and smirks " Boys. " she opens the house door and I run upstairs. There's a hallway each side with six doors numbered 1,3,5,7,9,11 on the left and 2,4,6,8,10,12 on the right. I look for mine and so does Aquarius, finally I find mine room nine. Aquarius goes across from me into room ten, he lifts his hand at me slight waving almost knocking over his neon green beanie before gently closing the door. I walk into my room, not bad. I jump onto my bed and lay down. " Aries! Aquarius! Come here! " Virgo screams. Ugh, what does she want. When I get downstairs Aquarius is already there in front of Virgo I stand next to him. " Hey? " I ask. " Where is everyone? " she asks us. Aquarius shrugs, " Um, I don't know actually. " I admit. " Well, they can't just not come. " Virgo adds. Aquarius points to the door, and then Capricorn, Gemini, Sagittarius and Leo come in. " Girls! " Virgo yells. All we hear is nonstop yelling and screaming, the girls are having a full out reunion hugging everybody. Me and Aquarius share a glance then he quickly grabs his wrist and looks down. I bite the inside of my cheek. Did I do something wrong? I look at the girls again, they're done whatever, that, was. " They said the boys are outside. " Virgo says. Aquarius, to my surprise walks upstairs. The boys come in " And the sheriffs in town! " yells Picses, refrencing I'm the leader. I pat everyone on the back and go upstairs. " Where's Cancer? " Virgo asks me. " Uh, he's not my friend that kid sits alone, like, all the time. " I answer. Virgo sighs and goes to another room. Just then I see Aquarius left his door open a crack. I knock on it. He jerks at the sound and comes to the door. " Hi. " I almost ask, why am I so nervous? He just looks at me. I shift on my feet, " Uh, can I come in? " he nods and opens the door wider. I walk in and look at his room, it looks cool. " So... Do you, talk? " his eyes flutter to the ground on he sits down sucking in a breath. He shakes his head, " Why? " I ask. " I-I-I ha-a-ve a st-t-u-u-tter " he breaths deeply and turns to me. " I'm sorry I didn't know. " I try. " I-I was b-b-b-bullied by y-you and y-ou-our f-frien-d-ds. " he adds. My mouth gapes open. I feel small tears pool into my eyes, I did that, to him?! What kind of person am I?! " Oh my god?... When?" I gulp. " t-two ye-ear-s-s ag-g-go " We were fourteen, just then it all came back." Hey c-c-c-c-c-can I s-s-s-s-stop s-s-s-s-s-stuttering! Stutter boy! " I mock. Scorpio high fives me as we laugh. Stutter boy puts his head in his hand and starts to cry. " S-s-s-s-stutter! " we all chant. " S-s-s-stop! P-please! " stutter boy begs. I give him on the ankle and so do all the other guys as we leave. " Later! " yells Taurus. " Loser, Stutter Boy! " adds Pisces.
I sigh. " I remember now... " he shifts and pulls his legs into his chest. " E-e-ever sin-c-ce tha-t-t day I n-never s-spoke a-a-a-gain in publi-c-c... " he admits. That's when a tear streams down my face. Aquarius looks up shocked. " W-w-why are yo-u c-cry-i-ing? " he asks. " I'm so sorry! I- I didn't even remember! I just- " More tears came down my face and then Aquarius started talking again. " Y-y-your so-r-rry? " I nod three times. I wipe the tears onto my sleeve. Aquarius stands up and walks over to me. " T-t-th-ank you. " he smiles. I hug him and he hugs me back tight. When we let yo I ask " Do you have any friends? " he shakes his head. " O-only V-v-vir-g-go... " he says. " I can be your friend... " I offer. He beams brightly. " I w-would li-k-ke tha-t. "
