The Zodiacs {7}

<Venus POV>

I awoke to birds singing outside my window, extremely happy, I was engaged. Then it hit me. No, I wasn't engaged anymore. Scorpio had cheated. The memory

filled my head and heart broke again. I thought we were meant to be soulmates, I looked down at the proof of this and had to choke back tears. My mark, my

beautiful mark, it was broke. Instead of having a full heart, the heart was broken. I was broken. My life was pointless, he was my life and he had gone. I

gave him everything I had, now I had nothing left. I didn't care, I was alone, I was the daughter of the goddess of love and I couldn't even keep my

boyfriend from cheating. I couldn't stop crying, I couldn't move, all I could do was look at the pictures of a happier time with Scorpio. After 2 weeks the

twins came round to cheer me up, dad had got me out of school saying I was sick, but even they couldn't cheer me up. They brought my favorite food, Pizza

with chicken and peppers, but I took one sniff and ran to the bathroom and threw up. The twins started to look very worried,

"Ve, when was your last period?" I thought about it for a while and then said "5 weeks ago, why?" They shared a look and then dragged me to the car.

"What are you doing?" I screamed!

"Getting you something,"

"We think you might be pregnant" NO. I can't be. Please, Goddesses please say I'm not. I can't have anymore reminders of him. Please. Please. They bought 5

pregnancy tests and drove me home. Then they sent me into the bathroom. I followed the instructions, and then it was a waiting game. I stared at my results.

AH SHIT!!

"so are you.."

"or aren't you?" I couldn't speak. I just handed them the tests.

"Oh GOD, VE, are you ok?"

"I'm gonna kill that brother of ours." I took one look at their faces.

"Don't." was all I could say.

"What do you.."

"mean don't?" They asked

"I mean I don't want him to know. He has hurt me enough, I don't want him to be a part of it's life. It's my child, as far as I'm concerned he is a sperm

donor, not a father."

"But he is the father and your fia..."

"Don't say that! He isn't a father. A father wouldn't have sex with another girl, and neither would a fiancee. He is nothing to me. From now on, I don't

care. I will go back to school but only so I can support, my child. But I need your help, you can't tell him. Ok?"

"Fine we will accept your decision,"

"But you will have to tell him sooner or later."

"Well I choose later, now can you help me choose an outift for tommorow, and come with me to the mall, I feel like I need a new makeover."

"OH, MAKEOVER" I knew that would get their attention. We went to the mall, and we all got things done. The twins just got the simple things like facemasks,

mani-pedi, and a hair cut. I on the other hand got the works. I had my hair cut into layers, gave myself a fringe, got purple streaks, got my nails painted

purple with a black heart in it. I wasn't going to loose who I was. By the time the mall closed, I was ready for school the next day.

When I arrived back at school the next day, to say people were shocked would be an understatement. Everyone was staring. Well I did give them a lot to stare

at, considering I had gone from conerservative, shy ,and nerdy Venus, to today. I was wearing purple skinnies with rips in the knees and 3 low slung belts,

also black cut off top with zips in it. What I was going to lose my figure soon. I had to make the most of it. Oh and doc martins. In truth I looked totally

bad ass. I had also left all of my tattoos on display, I could of got them when I was off. All apart from my wrist which I covered wiith fingerless gloves. I

walked through the car park towads school, as I walked past Pandora, she sent me a glare. I just shrugged it off, why should I care what she thinks. I kept

walking and as I walked past them, the Twins fell into step with me. I was almost home free, almost at the door, when he had to run infront of me stopping

me. The entire carpark fell silent.

"What do you want asshole?" I growled

"Venus, what happened to you, why weren't you in, why wouldn't you answer any of my texts or calls? What did I do?" I snorted.

"You want to know what you did, oh, how about you screwed Pandora at our engagement party. Is that a good enough reaon?"

"What?! Venus, who told you this? They are obviously lying! Why would I do that? I love you."

"No one told me, I saw it with my own eyes, and you know I did, I threw your ring at you both. So fuck off out of my way, cause I'm still pissed, and I'm not

afraid to hurt you." I stated venom, lacing my words.

"Please Venus, don't do this, I don't even rememeber it, please, forgive me."

"Do you want the truth? I would probably if this was only about us two but it isn't anymore so no I can't." and with that I walked away from him. It nearly killed me to do so but it wasn't just about me anymore. I had my first scan today anyway and the twins were coming with me. So I had something to look forward to anyway, I would get to see my child for the first time today. That thought got me through the day. I walked out into the car park to wait for the Twins and my dad. Dad, didn't yet know he was a Grandpa, he just thought I was going for a check up as I wasn't feeling well. When I got there, I got my phone out and there was a text from my dad, he couldn't pick me up, he was stuck at work. Oh God, I couldn't be late.

"Heyy babe wheres.."

"your dad?"

"He's not coming, and now I can't get to the Hospital in time, and that was all I had to look forward to today." With that I burst into tears. Damn pregnacy hormones.

"Venus, we will get you to the hospital,but your gonna have to.."

"swallow your pride and ride with Scorpio. We won't tell him why but its our only way." I thought about it for a bit, and for my baby I could swallow my pride for 30 minutes. I nodded. The Twins ran over to ask Him, and I slowly made my way to the car. This time, me and the twins all sat in the back. Scorpio attempted to strike up a conversation.

"So, Venus, why do you need to go to the hospital." I just kept silent. Hey, I said I would ride with him, I never said I would be happy about it. And anyway like I would say oh the reason I'm going is cause I'm pregnant with your baby, you on of a Bastard. I would say bitch but she is a Goddess. So probably not a good idea. He dropped us off at the hospital, and I went straight in. I wasn't going to bother with pleasantaries. I had just made it. As I sat down I was called through.

"Hi, you must be Mrs Samston.."

"It's Miss actually." I quickly corrected.

"Oh I'm sorry. Miss Samston, so are we going to have a look at your baby today." She lay me down on the bed and rubbed the gelli like thing on my stomach.

"There are your babies, Miss Samston." Wait WHAT?! BABIES?!
