Aquarius was sent to the infirmary. Other zodiacs were sent home after one hour.
Aquarius finally woke up at night and tried to get up or atleast move a little.
"It would be better if you avoid moving at all." the nurse said.
Aquarius stopped struggling to move.
"How long have i been here ?" Aquarius asked.
"Since the morning." the nurse replied.
"Is anyone else injured?" she asked.
"Only you. I have to make a call to Ms.Roxy that you are awake so stay here quietly." the nurse said and replied.After 30min Ms.Roxy visited Aquarius followed by the headmasters.
"How are you feeling Aquarius ?" Mr. Asteroid asked.
"Fine, though i unable to move." Aquarius replied.
"What happened ? How did you disappear?" Mr.Meteroite asked.
"I...I think you already know sir. " Aquarius said.
"Very well then. We want you to do this..." Mr.Meteroite and Ms.Roxy explained everything to Aquarius about the plan.
"Thats all." Ms.Roxy said.
"Aquarius why did you agree with them without much hesitation??" Mr.Asteroid asked.
"Actually sir i think i kind of have the power of future insight. I can see alot of stuff in dangerous situations." Aquarius replied.
"If thats the case i will personally teach you on how to control them. Cause future insight can be a double edged sword." Mr.Meteroite said.
"Yeah , i felt alot of pain in my body like it was paralyzed." Aquarius replied.
"Looks like they tortured you alot in your helpless state. Rest well cause you have a lot of wounds at places that are not visible." Mr.Asteroid said.
"Goodness they only injured the parts that are not visible." Ms.Roxy said.
"Yeah they didn't even touch my face." Aquarius said.
"It can keep your friends from worrying too much. Rest well now." Mr.Asteroid said and left with the others.The next day everyone came to visit Aquarius and after two days she went back to the dormitary.
"Are you sure you can walk properly?" Capricorn asked.
"Yeah." Aquarius replied.One week after this Aquarius started to go to training normally along with others and to Mr.Meteroite for personal lessons too.
*Capricorn pov *
I am going to the dorms right now.
I enter and everything is silent. I guess no ones home.
I ran to the bathroom and opened the gate and i saw....Aquarius
She was in her pajamas and *cough* BRA *cough* i could see her back. She turned and shouted.
"What the hell Capricorn? Get out right now."
I went out hurriedly. I saw, i saw her back. It was fully bruised. What the fuck happened with her. They look like fresh wounds.Aquarius came out of the bathroom now fully dressed.
"Aquarius come here. We need to talk." I told her.
She ignored me and kept on walking.
I stood up and pulled her towards me.
"What do you want Capricorn?" She said struggling my hold.
"What were those bruises? " i asked.
"I don't know what you are talking about."
"Aquarius you haven't learnt how to lie."
"And you haven't learnt how to knock."
"So you refuse to tell me??" i asked.
She stayed silent.
I faced her towards me and hugged her. She still tried to break free but i didn't let go."Leave me alone Capricorn."
" I won't."
"Let me go."
"I won't let you go ever."
She stopped struggling and just stood their.
"I don't know what happened Aquarius. But you can talk to me if you need someone to hear you out. By the way have you applied medicine on them??"
"I was trying to just now." she replied.
"Want me to help?" i asked.
She looked up slightly blushing.
"I guess not. Anyway who will help you the nurse at the infirmary is out today. Thats why you were trying to apply it yourself, right?" i asked.
She just nodded.
"Who else knows? " i asked.
She stayed silent.
"I guess no one. Then let me help you."
She looked away.
"If thats how it is , i have no other option. Let me help you or i will tell everyone." i said.
"Are you blackmailing me ?" she asked.
"Yeah i am."
She broke the hug turned around and lifted her shirt from behind so that i could see it . Her ears were red she was blushing and i was blushing too alot. Damn.
She handed me the medicine and i applied it slowly. I could hear her low painful gasps here and there. It looked really painful. She had tears in her eyes.
I unconciusly leaned forward and kissed her her back gently.
I was shocked by my own actions and shifted back immediately.
She put down her shirt took the cream from my hands and stood up and left.What the fuck did i do?? Am i in love with her?? I am , aren't i ? I think i just made things awkward. But more importantly what were those marks about ? Who did this to her ? Whoever did is gonna die for doing that to her.
