Game Time
Virgo stared out the front window of the mountain house, un-patiently waiting for Gemini and Scorpio to come back from the hospital.
Virgo was so proud of her crush, how he'd carried Gemini all the way up the ski slope and then brought her to the nearest hospital.
" They're back!" Pisces trilled from the doorway.
" Yes!" Virgo exclaimed, jumping down from the couch to go welcome her friends back.
She watched as Scorpio picked Gemini up bridal style, and carried her to the front door. He tapped the door lightly with his foot and Pisces opened it.
" Hiii!" She exclaimed.
Footsteps sounded behind us and Taurus and Aquarius appeared. Taurus was holding a plate of food and munched while we all chatted and Scorpio brought Gemini to the kitchen.
" Taurus, stop eating so much food!" Aquarius scolded his friend.
Mouth full, Taurus mumbled something none of us could understand, but set down her plate.
" I'm done eating, okay?" She held up her hands and swallowed the last bit of her food.
" I made hot chocolate," Virgo said, going to the stove. She pulled out six cups and poured even portions into each one.
" You doing okay?" She asked Gemini, setting a cup of hot chocolate in front of her friend. Gemini took a sip before replying.
" Yeah. I feel fuzzy and weird, but other than that and my arm hurting like crazy, I think I'm okay."
" Where are the others?" Scorpio asked.
" Oh, they went to check some stuff out at the main lodge. They should be back-ah, here they are now," Pisces replied as she heard the front door opening.
" And it was like, huge, oh hi Gem!" Libra trilled. " You doing okay? Can I write on your cast?"
Gemini laughed. " Sure Lib. In fact, all of you can write on my cast. It'll tickle, though!"
Everyone laughed. Virgo served more hot chocolate and everyone signed Gemini's cast. Here's what everyone wrote:
Hi, Gem. The smell of your cast reminds me about the time you vomited on me. Enjoy the pain......jk! - Leo
Gem, I'm so sorry this happened and I was able to tell you in time to swerve. I'm glad I was there with you to bring you to the hospital. - Scorpio
Gemi, you're my best friend. You're like a sister. I'm sorry about your accident. Sis's 4ever! -Libra
Gemini, enjoy the hot cocoa I made. I know you love it, so I made extra just for you. 😊- Virgo
So glad we're friends, Gemini. Hope you feel better REAL soon! - Aqua
What does Gemini stand for? G- Great, E- Excellent, M- Magnificent, I-Intelligent, N- Naughty, I- Icy cold. Haha! - Aries and Sagittarius
Ever need someone to make you some food, come to me, Gem. - Taurus
Hehehe, ok so Taurus told me to write something nice here......hmmmmm, Gem, you're really good at ski-ing......that is, when you're not getting hurt. Anyway.....get better real quick!- Cap
Gemini, this is was probably a big scary fright for you. We're so sorry that it happened and if you need anything, just ask us! - Pisces and Cancer
*****************************
" Should we watch a scary movie or play a game?" Aries asked the group. " All votes for scary movie, raise your hand."
Aries, Leo, Scorpio, Sagittarius, and Libra raised their hands.
" Arggg!" Leo shouted. " We always play those girly games, so can we do something civilized for once?"
" Nope," Gemini smirked at him. " Besides, lots of us don't like scary horror movies, right?" She looked at the others for backup, and they all nodded.
" But I do have an idea that you boys may like," She continued.
That seemed to get the boys to perk up.
" It's hide and seek, with a twist." Gemini explained. " Do you guys want to play?" Everyone nodded.
" Ok then, here's the rules. I'm going to hide something. It'll be the tv remote. Some of us will be it, which is like, if they tag you, you have to go the jail. The others will be looking for the remote. If they find it, they have to bring it to their safe spot. There will be less 'it' people than the people looking for the remote. Got it? I might play, depends. So who wants to be it?"
" I do! Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius and Aries shouted.
" Then the rest of you, find a home base and count to a minute while the rest of us go hide the remote. Go!"
Everyone scurried in one or the other directions. A few minutes later the game had begun.
***************************
" Sag's RIGHT there!" Virgo hissed to Cancer. They were hiding under the couch in the living room.
" SHHHHH!" Cancer whispered quietly.
" Some HAS to be in here," Sagittarius complained. " I can't find ANYONE!"
Cancer and Virgo stifled their giggles of amusement.
Sag scanned the room before sighing heavily and walking out.
Cancer and Virgo got up from under the couch and began searching the room.
" It has to be in here somewhere," Cancer complained. " I've looked everywhere."
Suddenly Virgo had an idea. " Not everywhere!"
" What?" Cancer asked. " And keep your voice down. Where do you think it is?"
" Follow me." Was all Virgo responded. The two friends tip-toed the the mud room.
" Gemini's coat," Virgo motioned. Cancer walked closer and then saw it. The tv remote. She reached for it but.......
" Got BOTH of you!" Sagittarius cried loudly in excitement. " To the jail, prisoners!"
" Nooooooo!" Cancer and Virgo cried helplessly.
" At least we know where it is," Virgo told Cancer as they settled in their jail.
" Tagged the both of you!" They looked up to Scorpio looking down at them. Virgo blushed as she made eye contact with Scorpio. Cancer noticed, and nudged her. " oooooo!"
" Shut up," Virgo hissed at her, still blushing.
It was only a matter of seconds until the three had made it to the mud room, and retrieved the remote.
" Got it!" Virgo yelled, running back to their base. She crossed the line Gemini had drawn and started hollering. " We won, guys!"
Everyone made their way back to the living room and all settled down, either on the couch or on the floor.
" What should we play now?" Leo asked boredly.
" Spin the bottle," Taurus smiled mischeiviously.
She got up and returned with a bottle.
" I'll go first," Sagittarius offered. Everyone knew he was hoping to land on Pisces. Instead, it landed on Libra. They scooted towards each other and pecked one another on the lips.
Then Libra spun the bottle, and it landed on........Leo!
Leo pressed his lips to Libra's and she returned the kiss. They really sinking into it when everyone started chanting.
" Leo and Libra! Woohoo! Yeah, lovebirds!"
" Oh shut up," Libra blushed madly as they released from their kiss.
Then Leo spun and landed on Aquarius. " Ewww, no!" He yelled.
" Just hug him, then," Taurus shrugged.
" Fine," Leo rolled his eyes and gave Aquarius a hug. Then Aqua spun the bottle, and it landed on.......Virgo.
Just as they were about to kiss, Scorpio knew he had to do something. He couldn't take it much longer. He wasn't going to let Aquarius get his crush. So he did he only thing he could think of.
He tackled Aquarius.
