Zodiac- learning to live under the stars

Chapter 20- ultrasound

JANUARY
Virgo's POV
"Make sure you do your homework tonight if you haven't done it already," I cleared my throat and looked at my year 10 class.
The bell went.
"Dismissed," I said.
They bustled out of the door.
"Virgo?" Pisces poked her head into the room.
"Pisces? What the heck? Why are you here?" I stood up from my desk.
"Um we're finding out the gender and I wanted you to come," she said.
"Oh I'll get ready," I started to put my papers into my rucksack.

"Wow. It's so..." I trailed off as I stared at the ultrasound screen.
"It's amazing. Can you tell us the gender?" Aries asked excitedly to the gynaecologist.
The doctor grinned at Aries' excitement. "Yeah. It's a girl, congrats," he said.
Aries beamed and kissed Pi.

"Congrats. Libra will be happy," I teased on the way back from the hospital.
Aries snorted from the drivers seat.
"Everyone will be happy," Pisces contradicted her husband.
"Hunter will have a friend around his age," I said.
"That'll be nice for him. I don't see him going to any nurseries, Scorpio and Can are very protective," Pisces mused.
"I can't blame them really, seeing their pasts," Aries said softly.
We fell silent.
"Scorpio was scared a while ago," Aries said.
"Oh?" Pisces raised an eyebrow.
"It was a week before he had to leave, we were building a bookshelf for Hunter's room and he just... broke down. He was terrified about being a father, seeing how his parents were. But, I reckon the fact he even thought about that is the reason he isn't a bad dad," he explained.
"Were you worried?" I asked.
"Yeah. Still am," Aries admitted.
"Well, it's a kid, a baby, you're bound to mess up, it's your first try, you learn as you go along," I shrugged.
"Where did you hear that?" Pisces said, amused.
"Cancer,"
"Of course," Aries snickered.
"Hey, V, do you wonder if you'll ever have a kid with Leo?" Pi piped up.
"Uh... I haven't really thought about it I guess, I mean maybe, but preferably not in the near future," I unconsciously touched my stomach.
"Have you asked Leo what he thinks?" Aries questioned.
"No. But he'd be a great father, seeing how he is with Hunter, but, I'm not sure I'd be a good mother. I'm too strict and snappy," I said.
"Tell Leo that. He definitely wants a kid," Pisces asked after a stretch of silence.
"Yeah I will," I said absentmindedly.
"Promise?"
"Promise,"
