The Evil Within: A Zodiac Story

His Name(4)

Aquarius's P.O.V

I had arrived at this strange house the other day as I was out for a nice stroll through the city. It was quite amusing to see that I had found a government building by chance, I wonder what would of happened if I wasn't suppose to come here? An interesting question I'll have to answer later.

Aries had already arrived two days prior which was a relief since I'm not the best at socializing, unlike her. We met in kindergarten and have known each other ever since. She continuously denies the fact that she has had a crush on me since the second grade but I know she's lying, mainly because I had snooped around her room in the fourth grade and read her diary.

She had asked me out last year and I hesitantly said yes, after much time to think about it. It took a week for me to answer her question. She nearly got suspended for threatening me with a pair of scissors in school.

Enough about that though, let's talk about how I got here! Simple really, I walked. Oh yeah, I was here because of a vacation my family sent me on. They only gave me a one way ticket to the city though, which thoroughly confused me. Oh well, not much I can do there. I doubt I'll be seeing them again.

The two girls who had arrived the next day after me are quite the interesting bunch. In fact everyone here is quite the interesting bunch, including me. Although I don't like the Leo girl that much, reason unknown, to you at least.

I was rudely awoken this morning by Aries throwing my clothes everywhere. Wait clothes? My clothes too. How did these get here? Yet another troubling question.

"Aqua hon, you need a better fashion sense, this stuff is so boring!" Aries whined going through all my shirts. I liked them. "Oh, here we go!" Aries said pulling out a bright red shirt with a design which resembled a ram, at least that's what it looked like to me.

"Sure I'll wear that one. That's the one you gave me though, correct?" I say grabbing the shirt from her.

"Yup! It's amazing!" She smiled brightly at me. She had the loveliest smile I have ever seen. I just had to smile back. Aries picked the rest of my outfit and we went down for breakfast.

"Hello Aries, Aquarius!" Cancer greeted us making breakfast beside Pisces. I didn't understand how anyone could wake up so early, although I'm a night owl myself. I needed coffee soon or else I would be asleep by noon.

"Here's your tea!" Pisces said handing two cups over full of a light green liquid that was tea. I don't like tea sadly, I wish I did, it's far healthier than coffee.

"Sorry but I prefer coffee." I said frowning slightly. Pisces looked horrified, had I offended her? Maybe she's from the Aloma region. I've heard they value tea very highly. "Have I accidentally offended you? Are you from the Aloma region?" I asked the small girl. I just noticed now her eyes have two different colors.

"Aloma? No, I'm from the outer edge of Celestia." She replied looking very confused. Good, I haven't made a grave mistake. She slowly walked away and brewed some coffee for me. I added some milk and enjoyed my delicious beverage.

"So whatcha cookin'?" Aries asked Cancer peering over his shoulder. Cancer seems really short, probably because he is short.

"Scrambled eggs." The tiny boy replied in the cutest voice. It was so soft, I envied that voice. If I was gay and not dating Aries I would definitely develop a crush on him, but I have Aries and plus I'm very straight.

"Cool. Did you make any bacon yet?" Aries asked leaning closer. I feel as if she's flirting with Cancer. What is this feeling, jealousy? Yeah, that's it. I'm very jealous.

"No, would you like me to make some bacon?" Cancer asked.

"Yes, I just love bacon. I love meat in general, I'm the most carnivorous person you'll find." Aries said licking her lips in a flirtatious tone. I was definitely past jealous and onto anger. Why would she flirt with him and not enjoy a conversation with me? But how do I start a conversation? Let's just wing it.
