Zodiac Story- Fallen Stars

Chapter Five

POV VIRGO

I sat in the classroom with Libra, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Taurus, Scorpio, Cancer, Leo,  and Aries. We put our chairs together so we were in a circle, and we put a single desk in the middle.

Mrs. Rowan was unexpectedly sick today, and the principal was off making phone calls to see if a substitute was available. So far there hasn't been.

"This is great! If we don't get a teacher we don't have to do any work." Leo said laughing. He put his feet up on his desk. We all laughed, then Capricorn pushed Leo's feet off the desk.

"It would be great, except this is only our first class. We still have second period and third period to worry about."
Capricorn said.

Leo dramatically putting his face in his hands. "Oh the horror."

"Oh yes it is a tragedy." Aquarius said entering the room with a sad looking Pisces on one side and a worried looking Gemini on the other. "Homework will definitely be the death of us" Aquarius continued crossing her arms.

"Yes. There is nothing worse then having to spend your evenings doing something that will help your future." Gemini also said sliding into the seat beside me staring lasers at Leo. I could see that Aquarius and Gemini are in a very sarcastic mood.

"What's wrong?" Cancer asked. He was always the first one to speak up if it looked like someone had a problem.

Pisces had tears welling up in her eyes. "Well, let's just say, it's worse than homework."

Pisces told everyone about the girls who bully her, and I soon realized that the bullying was the cause of her vlogging less often.

"Rosa." Scorpio said. Her face was serious as usual, but she always knew the answer. This often infuriated me because she was so good at figuring out puzzles, or people, but was horrible in social situations and school; and she doesn't even care.

Aries, Sagittarius and Leo all looked at each other and make a gagging face.

"Rosa?" Aries said.

"She's always been a bully." Sagittarius said.

"I can't believe I dated her once." Leo said.

"I can't believe I let her pay me to do her homework." Capricorn said with his head in his hands.

Ok then. I thought. Rosa sat beside me in my math class which was next. "Don't worry Pisces." I said to my best friend. "I'll fix this for you."

Suddenly Pisces gave a look of anger at all of us. "I can't believe you! I know you're only trying to help but you all have just jumped to conclusions and think I NEED help. Maybe I can handle this in my own. Is that hard to believe? Maybe I'm stronger than you think. And maybe I'm tired of you all treating me like a baby!"

We were all shocked, including me. Cancer and I, have been Pisces's best friends since kindergarten. She was always so shy and cried so much that we looked at her as out little sister. Someone that always needed protecting.

"I forgot she isn't a little girl anymore." Taurus said, still in shock.

Aquarius laughed and tried to make the mood lighter. "You known she's older than you, right?"

No one else laughed. We just watched as Pisces stormed out of the room. Cancer got up. "I'll go check on her." Then he ran out after her.
