Leo day

Everyone was peacefully sleeping when they heard a trumpet. Whoever was playing clearly didn't know how to play. The zodiacs ran downstairs.

"What's the meaning of this?" asked Scorpio.

Leo stood up. "Today's Leo day. We do whatever I want."

"Since when do we have a "Leo day" besides his birthday?" asked Virgo.

Pisces furrowed her brow. "Does it say that on the calendar?"

"Go check," said Leo.

Libra ran out to the kitchen and checked the calendar. For March tenth it had Leo day written in red marker and a drawing of a lion."He's right. It is Leo day." She brought the calendar to the living room.

"I thought-"

"Just go along with it," said Libra, interrupting Aquarius.

"What do you have planned?" asked Capricorn.

Leo put a finger in front of his lips. "It's a secret."

"I hate secrets. Tell us!" demanded Aries who was becoming impatient.

"We wanna know!" said Sagittarius.

Scorpio hid in the closet and hoped Leo would forget about him.

Taurus sighed. "We're likely going to get killed."

Gemini gasped. "What about school?"

"Since when do you care about school?" asked Cancer.

"Skip it," replied Leo. "I have it all written down on this list so let's get ready!" Everyone went upstairs to get dressed.

Pisces hid in the closet with Scorpio.

"Where are we going?" asked Taurus. They were walking on the street.

"You'll see," replied Leo.

"Where's Pisces and Scorp?" asked Cancer.

Aquarius looked around the group. "Smart them. They must have stayed home."

"What? Why would they miss out on the Leo day fun activities?" asked Leo.

"I wonder," said Virgo sarcastically.

Leo stopped in front of a building. "Here we are."

Cancer froze in fear as he realized where they were.

"What's wrong?" asked Libra.

"W-We're-"

Leo smiled. "That's right! We're going skydiving."

***

After a while, Scorpio and Pisces walked out of the closet and sat in the living room.

"I don't think they noticed how we're missing," said Pisces.

"So what do you want to do?" asked Scorpio. Then he got a text.

Capricorn: HELP!!! LEO IS GONE CRAZY! HE'S MAKING US GO SKYDIVING!!!

Scorpio: There's nothing I can do about that. Good luck and hope your parachute works!

"What's going on?"

"They're going sky diving," replied Scorpio.

"Good thing we stayed home."

"I feel bad for Cap and Cancer though."

"So... They're going to be gone for a few hours?"

"I like the way you think." Scorpio gently cupped her face and kissed her.

***

"Are you out of your bloody mind?" asked Aquarius.

"YAY SKYDIVING!" cheered Aries, Sagittarius and Gemini.

Leo smirked at her. "Someone's scared."

"We're not scared, we just don't like the idea of jumping out of a freaking airplane," said Virgo.

Taurus wrapped his arms around her. "I'll keep you safe."

Virgo glared at Leo, not saying anything.

"I'm leaving," said Capricorn.

Two angry looking men with big muscles blocked the door.

"Hi John! Hi Steve!" Leo waved his hand. They waved back.

"How the hell are you friends with these guys?" asked Aries.

Leo shushed her. "Secrets."

"We used to babysit him when he was ten," said Steve.

"He complained a lot and wouldn't stop talking about his obsession over Libr-"

Leo screamed. "Okay okay that's enough!"

"Let's go already!" said Sagittarius, dragging Capricorn back over to the rest of the group.

"I'm scared. I need someone to hold my hand," said Gemini who was talking to Aries.

"Sure buddy," said Cancer, holding Gemini's hand.

Aries and Cancer high-fived.

"I'm good," said Gemini pulling his hand back.

Libra looked at the paperwork they had to sign. "I can't believe I'm about to die and it's going to be Leo's fault."

***

Pisces and Scorpio were watching a movie while eating popcorn. Scorpio's arm was around Pisces. Pisces was leaning on Scorpio. They were happy and peacefully watching Pisces' favourite love movie when an alarm went off. Scorpio got up and searched for the alarm clock. It had a note attached.

I wonder what you two are doing... If it's a boy name it after me.
-Gemini.

Scorpio's face got red and he smashed the alarm clock.

"What's wrong?" asked Pisces.

"Gemini thinks he's funny."

"What did he do?"

"Nothing important." Sleep with one eye open tonight Gemini. He sat back down beside Pisces.

***

"I thought I was going to die," said Cancer.

Aries pumped her fists in the air. "THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN!"

Sagittarius cheered. "LETS GO AGAIN!"

"Looks like the girls are braver then the boys," said Virgo.

Taurus laughed. "You held my hand the whole time we were on the plane."

"Never again," said Aquarius.

Leo pointed to Libra. "Libra almost didn't jump."

Libra shuddered. "In the plane I imagined about fifty different ways that this could of gone wrong."

"You guys will be the death of me," said Capricorn.

Sagittarius gave him a sweet smile. "At least you'll die happily."

"Not helping."

"I'm still shaking. Maybe a kiss will make me feel better," said Gemini.

Aries twisted his arm.

"Anyway what's next?" asked Aquarius.

Sagittarius crossed her arms. "Someone's impatient."

"I just want to get this over with."

"Follow me," ordered Leo. He lead them in front of another building.

***

"I wonder what the others are doing now," said Pisces. Her and Scorpio were eating salad for lunch.

"Probably something stupid like jumping off a cliff," said Scorpio.

"I'm starting to get bored."

"Want to go swimming? We keep our pool heated during winter of course!"

"Sure."

***

"And that's number two checked off the list," said Leo.

"I actually like Leo day," said Aries.

Sagittarius nodded. "Me too."

"The three of you like to do anything that's involves adventure or competition," said Virgo.

Aries crossed her arms. "Just like how you, Cap and Taurus don't like fun stuff and enjoy things that are boring instead."

"Hey!" said the three earth signs at the same time.

"I actually liked our game of laser tag," said Virgo.

Gemini put an arm around Aries and Virgo. "Uh oh. Here comes another war between the fire signs and the earth signs. Rest in piece earth signs."

"You be quiet over there," said Taurus.

Capricorn smiled at Sagittarius. "I'd never fight my true love in a war."

Sagittarius tried to smile but cringed.

"Aww Cappy's being cheesy again," said Libra.

"It's not cheesy!"

Sagittarius patted Capricorn on the back. "It's okay. Not everyone is good at flirting."

Virgo glanced at a Burger King in the distance. "Want to forget about Leo day and get something to eat?"

"Fine," agreed Leo. "Let's eat, then go home."

***

"How was your day?" asked Pisces.

"Fun!" replied Aries.

"So fun!" agreed Sagittarius.

Gemini furrowed his brow. "Are you two like, twins or something now?"

"What do you mean?" asked Sagittarius and Aries at the same time.

"Gemini's probably being weird again. Want to get a smoothie?" asked Aries.

Sagittarius picked up the keys to the car in response. "Sure."

"I'll come too!" said Virgo who followed them.

"Follow me," said Cancer. "I've been working on a painting I want to show you." Aquarius followed him into the basement.

"So what does everyone else want to do?" asked Taurus.

Capricorn sat on the couch. "I don't know. I can't believe we skipped school."

"We weren't doing anything important anyway," said Libra.

"Let's not tell Aries or Leo that we missed P.E today," said Gemini who forgot Leo was standing right there.

Leo dramatically fell to the floor."We missed P.E?!?"

"YOU'RE the one that decided to skip school today," said Libra.

Capricorn walked towards the kitchen. "Whatever. I'm going to start cooking supper."

***

"Can I open them now?" asked Aquarius with her eyes closed.

"Not yet," replied Cancer.

"How about now?"

"Okay, open your eyes."

Aquarius opened them. Cancer held up a painting of her.

It wasn't perfect but you could tell he put a lot of time and effort into painting it. Aquarius smiled and gave Cancer a hug. "I know it's not that good but-" Cancer was interrupted when Aquarius kissed him.

"It's amazing!"

"I'm glad you like it."

"I'm going to go hang it up in my room." Aquarius excitedly ran upstairs with the painting.

***

Scorpio stood beside a sleeping Gemini. It was revenge time. Scorpio poured a bit of apple juice in his bed and laughed.

He left a roll of toilet paper on Leo's nightstand. Just to rub it in.
