Halloween
Libra, Pisces, Scorpio, Cancer and Capricorn were in the living room. The girls were helping Scorpio with his costume while Cancer and Capricorn sat back and laughed.
"I can't wait for tonight!" announced Pisces.
"Aren't we a little old to go trick-or-treating?" asked Scorpio.
Libra sprayed pink colour in Scorpio's hair. "Do you want free candy or not?"
"I guess, but seriously why am I wearing this costume?" asked Scorpio.
"It's not that bad," said Cancer who was laughing.
"Yeah... It's not..." Then Capricorn and Cancer started laughing like crazy. Pisces sprinkled sparkles in Scorpio's hair.
"HEY! We agreed NO sparkles."
"Too bad," said Libra.
"You do realize I can just take this costume off right?" asked Scorpio.
"No, don't!" demanded Pisces.
"Why not?"
"We put a lot of hard work into this costume. If you take it off I'll... cry," said Pisces.
"You won't-" Pisces started fake crying. "Okay, okay! I won't take it off please stop crying."
"Promise?" asked Cancer.
"Ugh fine."
"Okay!" said Pisces cheerfully.
"Remind me why I'm wearing this costume again?" asked Scorpio.
"Revenge for scaring the crap out of us the other night when we told ghost stories," replied Capricorn.
"Now you can't scare anyone because you're a fluffy little ball of fluff!" said Cancer.
"Almost done?" asked Scorpio. Then Libra added one more detail.
"There, you're finished," said Pisces.
Scorpio went over to the wall and looked into a full-length mirror. He was wearing a pink unicorn costume with stars drawn on his cheeks and glitter in his pink hair. He was also wearing a rainbow unicorn horn that lit up. They even gave him pink sparkly eyeshadow and mascara.
"I hate this."
"You look so pretty," said Cancer who was still laughing.
Capricorn walked over to Scorpio. "Smile." He took a photo.
"GIVE ME THAT PHONE!!!" Scorpio chased Capricorn around the house. Then they heard a high-pitched scream from the basement. Then a bunch of laughter.
"Cancer, go tell them in the basement to stop watching horror movies and come get their costumed ready," ordered Libra.

Pisces, Libra, Sagittarius and Capricorn were waiting downstairs for everyone to finish changing into their costumes. Leo walked downstairs. He wore a monster costume.
"So you're a monster?" asked Sagittarius.
"Nope!" replied Leo.
"Then what are you?" asked Capricorn.
"Libra." Everyone laughed except for Libra.
"Haha very funny," said Libra sarcastically.
Leo looked at Pisces with a puzzled expression. "Why are the four of you wearing the same costume?"
"They're not the same! The costumes are different colours. I'm a water fairy, Libra is an air fairy, Sagittarius is a fire fairy, and Capricorn is an earth fairy," explained Pisces.
"I told her this wasn't a good idea," said Capricorn.
"You told me you liked your costume..." said Pisces. Her eyes were starting to water.
"Yeah it's a great idea! I love wearing a brown crown, dress, fairy wings and glitter in my hair," said Capricorn sarcastically.
"Why did you make US in particular be fairies?" asked Sagittarius.
"Because the three of you didn't have costumes picked out already," said Pisces. "And your costumes match your signs." And they think i'll cry if they don't wear their costumes.
"I actually like being a fairy," said Libra.
"Because you're wearing white, and wearing a dress isn't a problem since you're a girl," said Capricorn.
"Did you just assume that only girls can wear dresses?" asked Sagittarius.
Capricorn face palmed. "I literally don't care what I am, but I guess it makes Pisces happy."
Scorpio came down the stairs in the unicorn costume he wore earlier. "Aren't you pretty?" Scorpio took a picture of him. Capricorn glared at Scorpio. Taurus and Cancer came downstairs. They were both zombies. Cancer made his hair spiky.
"Is that dirt in your hair?" asked Taurus.
"It's brown glitter," growled Capricorn.
"Cancer I love your spiky hair! You should make your hair like that more often!" said Pisces.
"What about my hair?" asked Scorpio for a joke.
"You should wear that costume more often, it looks so cuddly," said Pisces. Then she gave Scorpio a hug. "Your costume is VERY soft and cuddly."
"Not going to happen," replied Scorpio who looked away.
Aquarius walked downstairs. She was wearing a mermaid costume. She even had little sea shells attached to her mermaid tail. "Why is Taurus wearing sunglasses? First of all zombies don't wear glasses, second of all it's night."
"I'm a cool zombie," replied Taurus.
"You'll be awfully cool when you bump into something because you can't see," said Virgo.
"Wait what? When did she get here?" asked Taurus.
"I didn't see her coming either," said Leo. Virgo was dressed as an angel. Then Gemini and Aries walked into the living room. Aries wore a blue princess costume and Gemini was a prince.
"What a cute couples costume," said Pisces.
"We literally didn't plan this." Aries was surprised herself.
"I wanted to do a couples costume thing," said Capricorn to Sagittarius.
"Oh well. We're a fairy couple," said Sagittarius. Then the zodiacs got ready to go trick-or-treating.
***
"Trick or treat," said Pisces, Virgo, Libra, Cancer, Sagittarius, Aquarius and Capricorn. Everyone else stayed silent and waited for the candy. The old lady that answered the door looked at their costumes.
"Oh look at the four different fairies. What an adorable group costume," said the old lady.
"See," said Pisces to Capricorn.
"Oh look at the girl in the unicorn costume."
"I'm a guy," hissed Scorpio.
"Sure you are." The old lady gave everyone candy.
"Thank you!" said everyone at the same time. Then they continued trick-or-treating.
***
Everyone arrived at the house. Aquarius came up with the idea of throwing a party just for them. They set up the snacks and music. They also moved the furniture in the living room out of the way. After that was done Virgo, Libra, Pisces, Cancer and Leo were all dancing; Aries, Gemini, Sagittarius, Aquarius and Taurus were in the corner trading candy; and Capricorn and Scorpio were talking.
After a while, everyone started dancing except for Scorpio. Then Pisces noticed. She walked over to him.
"You're not supposed to be sitting all alone anymore," said Pisces.
"I-I don't know how to dance."
"We'll show you." Pisces dragged Scorpio over to Cancer, Sagittarius, Aquarius and Libra. "He doesn't know how to dance."
"I-I well it doesn't matter!" stuttered Scorpio.
"Do what we do," said Libra. Then Libra, Pisces, Aquarius, Sagittarius and Cancer continued doing funny dances. Scorpio shyly joined in.
***
Afterwards a bunch of zodiacs went upstairs to get some sleep, Taurus, Leo, Cancer and Scorpio were dancing together. Then Cancer thought of an idea.
"You should ask her out," said Cancer.
"Now?" asked Taurus.
"Now," replied Leo.
"In this costume?" asked Taurus.
"If you think your costume is ridiculous..." Scorpio made sure Pisces wasn't close enough to hear. "Then look at my ridiculous costume."
"I'm really tired..."
"Yeah right. She's over there dancing alone, now's your chance!" said Leo.
"How do I look?" asked Taurus.
"Like a zombie," replied Cancer.
"You're good," said Scorpio.
Then Taurus walked over to her. "Hey."
Then she turned around and smiled. "Hey."
"I umm... I wanted... I wanted to... I..." Then he took a deep breath. "I wanted to know if you'd like to go on a date with me because you're so pretty and I've liked you for a while now."
"I- sure, sounds fun." She was blushing.
"Really?" asked Taurus.
"Really."
"Okay that's awesome! I-I mean... cool." Then he walked back over to his friends.
"What did she say?" asked Leo.
"She said yes!" Then they all have him high-fives.
"We're so proud of you!" said Cancer.
"Yeah." Taurus looked back over at her. She looked happy, dancing by herself. She looked up at him and smiled. He smiled back.
