Scorpio POV
I stare at the drink on the counter. The music of the bar is making my head pound. I can hear Virgo in my mind telling me not to take the shot. I've been sober for 5 months now, but I pick it up and down it.
I keep drinking until I realize what I've done. I clench the empty glass in my hand. I can't help crying. I cry and cry until my mouth is dry from all the water that has escaped from my body.
Someone taps my shoulder. I jump.
"Sir, we're closing," she says, annoyed.
"Oh, sorry." I get up and leave. It's 4:00 am. I get into my car and check my phone before I leave the parking lot.
Virgo
Scorpio, where the hell are you? It's one am.
Virgo
You've been gone for too long. Come home now.
Virgo
Why aren't you answering me
Virgo
It's two am, goddammit. Come home right now
Virgo
Tell me you're ok
Virgo
Please be alive
Virgo
It's three am now. Where the hell are you
Virgo
I'm scared
Virgo
Please
Virgo
Please answer.
Virgo
Please tell me you're not dead.
Virgo
I'm not sleeping until I know you're okay.
Shit. Even though I'm wasted, my mind is sober, and I know I really screwed up. And I probably shouldn't drive, but I do anyways. Luckily, I get home safely and stumble inside.
Virgo jumps up as soon as the door opens. Her face is red and stained with tears, and she's a mess.
She runs to me and shockingly, she kisses me. She pulls away quickly though, and looks at me in the eye.
"You drank."
My heart is broken because the way that she is looking at me tells me that I just broke her heart.
Ophiuchus POV ⛎(The sign of the Ophiuchus house. Are any of you Ophiuchus? I am, as well as Sagittarius :P)
I nervously pull at my fingers. I'm walking to Leo's office. He called me in the middle of class which means he knows that people know about me having my own house.
"Good morning. Shut the door, please." He says sternly. I do as he says and sit.
He folds his hands and places them on the desk. "I'm aware you spoke of what I directly instructed you to not discuss. Am I wrong?"
"No, sir.. you are not.." I say shamefully.
"Who did you speak to?" His eyes are shooting daggers but his posture is calm and peaceful.
"Daniel Valiz, from Libra. He told Lizzie.. I'm not sure what her last name is?"
He types something into his computer. "Lizzie Carlson.." he says to himself then shuts his computer off and turns back to me.
"Do you understand what you've done?" He looks at me. He's not hiding his anger now.
"I'm sorry, sir."
"No, sorry won't cut it. Do you understand what you have done?!"
"I went against you, and it was wrong..." I wipe my sweaty palms on my jeans.
"I'm mad about that, just a little. But do you truly understand what this means, Ophiuchus? Do you?"
"No, sir... Not truly,"
"You have broken everything."
