The Zodiac Kingdom

Chapter 2 - Truth or Dare?

Taurus POV

"Hey Cap! Truth or Dare?"

Scorpio, Capricorn and I were sat in a circle. We decided to scrap the 'Spin the Bottle' idea, since all of us were uncomfortable with the fact that you had to kiss the person the bottle landed on. We split into groups of three, to prevent fighting. If Leo was in the same room as Scorpio, this party was going to be a disaster, and we might as well all be dead.

"Dare! I'm feeling brave." Capricorn beamed, and rubbed his hands together eagerly. "Hit me with your best shot."

"Okay." The corners of my lips widened into an evil smile as I whispered the dare to Scorpio.

"Ooh la la!" Scorpio added. I heard Capricorn gulp.

"Okay... I dare you... to KISS CANCER!" I smirked.

"Oh come on... can it be on the cheek?" He added hopefully. He didn't want to rush things with Cancer, especially when nothing official has started.

"Sure, as long as it's a kiss."

Capricorn walked over to Cancer, Pisces and Virgo's game. He tapped on Cancer, and when she turned around, he pressed his lips on her cheek. Scorpio and I cheered excitedly.

"It was a dare!" I added. Both Cancer and Capricorn went red. He said bye to Cancer, and the three of us walked back to game room, and sat on the carpet.

"Scorpio next! Truth or Dare?" Capricorn asked, still slightly red. 

"Truth, after your dare I'm going to stay safe." Scorpio grinned slightly.

Capricorn and I shared a look.

"DOYOUHAVEACRUSHONANYONE?" We both blurted out.

Scorpio's face turned red and nodded slightly.

"Ooooooooh!" Capricorn and I chorused.

"Who is it?" I asked mischievously.

"Umm..." Scorpio looked worried and embarrassed at the same time. "I don't want to say the person's name... I'll give you clues instead."

Capricorn and I leaned in closer, beaming.

"If you two are going to be like that I'm not going to tell you."

I folded my arms like a baby.

"Fine." Scorpio sighed. "The person has an 'I' in their name."

"Is it me?" Capricorn asked.

"Or is it yourself?" I asked cheekily.

"No to both of you. It's a girl."

"Ooooh-" we began, but Scorpio shot us a look.

"Let me continue. The girl I like has an 'A' in their name."

"Is it me?" Capricorn asked impudently, and he started laughing.

"I'd like to bold that I like A GIRL!" Scorpio shouted, and started laughing. He cleared his throat slightly and said, "The girl has an 'R' in her name. The 'GIRL', okay Capricorn? And she has five letters in her name."

My heart sank. Did he have a crush on Libra?

"Is it Libra?" I asked, a disappointed tone in my voice.

"No! That girl is reserved for you, Taurus. It's... Aries." Scorpio blushed. I've never seen him blush so much before. 

"Noice." Capricorn said. I grinned, relieved that he liked Aries instead.

"Promise you guys won't tell anyone?" 

"Don't worry. We won't interfere." I promised.

Gemini's POV 

Leo, Sag and I decided to take a break from our games and SPY ON THE OTHER GROUPS. So far, we've learnt:

- Cancer likes Capricorn

- Capricorn kissed Cancer (only on the cheek though)

- Aquarius wonders what it'll be like to have water powers for a day (BORING!)

- In 'Kiss, Date, Kill', Aries picked: Kiss Sagittarius (Sagittarius had the 'Surprised Pikachu Face' when he heard that), Date Scorpio (no surprise there...), and kill Taurus (because he steals too much of her snacks).

Then we heard Capricorn ask,  'Do you like anyone?'

My ears perked up. I said to my friends, "We gotta see who Scorpio likes!"

They agreed and we crept to their room. Luckily the door was open! We hid behind the wall. I hoped that they couldn't see us. I was as quiet as a mouse.

"I don't want to say the person's name... I'll give you clues instead." Scorpio said.

Leo and Sagittarius asked me, "What if we can't guess who it is?"

"I don't think we have to... they would probably do it for us instead!"

"Oh yeah!" whispered Leo, remembering to keep his voice down.

"The person has an 'I' in their name." Scorpio confirmed.

So we eliminated, Taurus, Cancer and Leo.

"Is it me?" Capricorn asked.

"Or is it yourself?" Taurus asked cheekily.

"No to both of you. It's a girl." Scorpio repeated.

So the possibilities were Aries, Virgo, Libra, Aquarius and Pisces.

"The girl I like has an 'A' in their name." Scorpio answered.

Then we all knew it!

"Okay, on the count of three, say the person you think it is," Sagittarius added.

"Okay" I said.

"3-"

"Wait..." Leo piped in, "don't we start with 1?"

"Let's just start at 3. We're wasting time."

"Fine." Leo pouted.

"3, 2, 1.... Libra!" We whispered loudly.

"Is it Libra?" Taurus asked, a disappointed tone in my voice.

"No! That girl is reserved for you, Taurus. It's... Aries." Scorpio Shouted 

"Wait... so Taurus likes Libra... and Scorpio likes Aries?" Sagittarius asked.

"Well, it was kinda obvious that Taurus likes Libra!" Leo agreed.

"But, Scorpio likes Aries!!?" I said excitedly.

Scorpio liked Aries, we were so shocked. We knew that Aries liked Scorpio, but we didn't know that Scorpio was interested in her! I had to cover Sagittarius' mouth before he exploded into an eruption of intense laughing. When we heard Taurus and Capricorn promise that they wouldn't interfere, we smiled evilly, and Leo said in a whisper:

"But we will..."

"Operation 'Get two people without knowing that we're doing this' into action!" Sagittarius said excitedly.

"Why do you always have to be so cringey?" I asked him.

This was going to be fun... and beside, we're doing them a favor! I knew that this would be worth it!

We sneaked out of the room then shouted, "WE SHIP IT!"

Then we started giggling until the girls, Aries, Libra and Aquarius went into our room.

"Shut up! We can hear you in our room!" Shouted Aquarius.

"Sorry," replied Sagittarius, and then he started to blush.

The girls walked away and then we stared at Sagittarius.

Then Leo and I shouted again, "WE SHIP IT!"

"Who's being cringey now?" Sagittarius smirked. Then he added, "Besides, I ship you two."
