Snow Day
Aries woke up to the sound of their house phone ringing. Stupid phone. Aries got up and went downstairs. Then she picked up the phone.
Sagittarius came downstairs. "Who is it?"
"The school," replied Aries. Sagittarius walked over and looked out the window. It was sunny, but the roads were covered in snow and ice. Aries hung up the phone. "Snow day?"
Aries nodded her head. "Let's go tell the others."
"Not so fast."
"What?"
"I think I know exactly how to wake them up."
"I like the way you think." Aries and Sagittarius went to get a few things from the storage room.
***
"WHAT'S THAT HORRIBLE NOISE?!?!?!?!?!?" yelled Pisces. There was rock music playing from the living room with maxed volume and someone was blowing air horns all around the house. Pisces walked out of her room and saw Virgo covering her ears. Then Aries ran by with the air horn. She had earplugs in her ears. Then they heard a loud noise downstairs and the music shut off. Pisces felt like her head was spinning.
"What the hell happened?!?" asked Libra.
"Ask the one with the air horn and ear plugs," said Aquarius. Everyone looked at Aries.
"Uh oh." Aries ran downstairs.
"Some people never change..." sighed Virgo.
***
"Finished!" announced Pisces excitedly. Everyone started laughing except for Aries and Sagittarius. Aries and Sagittarius were standing up covered up to their necks in snow. Pisces made them into little snowmen.
"Wait!" Libra ran inside the house. She returned with two hats and put them on Aries and Sagittarius. Capricorn went to get his phone and took a picture.
Aries and Sagittarius broke free.
"Let's have some fun!" said Cancer.
"How?" asked Gemini.
Taurus looked around. "Well, its winter so let's play in the snow."
Scorpio's nodded excitedly. "We can bury Leo under a bunch of snow."
"Or, we can bury Scorpio under a bunch of snow," suggested Leo.
"Or I'll get buried under snow!" Pisces sat on her knees and started throwing snow in the air.
The others joined her.
***
Libra, Pisces, Cancer and Scorpio were building a snowman. Virgo, Taurus, Aquarius and Capricorn were competing to see who could make the best snow angels and Aries, Gemini, Sagittarius and Leo were building a snow fort.
Everyone was having fun and it started snowing. After a while Libra, Pisces, Cancer and Scorpio built a big snowman, decorated him and Pisces named him Snowy (very creative, Pisces). Virgo and Aquarius ended up tied for who could make the best snow angels and Aries, Gemini, Sagittarius and Leo had a big snow fort shaped kind of like a cave.

The zodiacs all went back inside. Gemini, Aries, Leo and Scorpio went downstairs to play video-games. Aquarius, Pisces, Libra and Cancer were doing something on their phones. Capricorn went to make everyone hot chocolate and Taurus, Virgo and Sagittarius were on the couch cuddled up in blankets. Then Capricorn went around the house giving everyone hot chocolate with whipped cream and crushed candy cane bits.
"I'm kind of bored now," said Taurus.
"I kind of wish there was school so we'd have something to do," said Virgo. Everyone else gasped in horror.
Pisces looked at her with wide eyes. "You don't mean that!"
"That place is a prison," said Cancer.
"I like school but I don't like work," explained Virgo.
"Oh," said everyone at the same time.
Cancer nodded. "That makes more sense."
"I wonder what they're doing downstairs," said Aquarius.
"Probably video-games," replied Capricorn.
Sagittarius smiled. "I don't know about you guys but I want to play."
***
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" yelled Aries. Everyone came downstairs and sat on a couch.
"What's wrong?" asked Virgo.
"She lost," replied Scorpio.
Gemini sighed. "Aries takes these games WAY too seriously."
"So does Leo," said Aries.
"Not as much as you," said Leo. The he lost. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
"Those fire signs and their competitive side..." muttered Virgo.
Sagittarius reached for Aries' controller. "I want to play too."
"Let's all take turns," suggested Capricorn.
"We were here first," said Gemini.
"Sharing is caring," said Libra.
Scorpio's shrugged. "What if I don't care?"
"Then you let us play anyway," replied Aquarius.
"And if I don't?" asked Gemini.
"Then we take the wii remote from you," replied Taurus.
Leo stuck his tongue out. "You'd have to catch us first."
"We should just share with them," said Scorpio.
"Fine," said Aries, Gemini and Leo.
"We can split up into groups and play four at a time. Each group gets to pick what game they want to play," suggested Cancer. Everyone agreed.

Leo, Virgo, Taurus and Aquarius were playing just dance. The other zodiacs were watching them. Aries and Capricorn were recording them while they danced in case something funny happened. Taurus kept messing up, Virgo and Aquarius were really good, and Leo kept beating everyone. He'd get the movements right but it was funny to watch. Libra and Pisces were singing along.
"You know at the end of this song the girl jumps into the guy's arms," said Aquarius.
"So you're jumping into my arms?" asked Leo.
"No, I'm talking about Virgo and Taurus," said Aquarius.
"Alright," said Virgo.
"Here it comes..." said Aquarius.
"Wait wha-" Virgo jumped in Taurus' arms but he wasn't prepared so he dropped her. "VIRGO!?! Are you alright?!?"
Virgo was on the floor laughing. Everyone else was laughing as well.
"You have to send me that video," said Sagittarius to Aries and Capricorn.
"Me too," said everyone else.
***
Sagittarius, Aries, Gemini and Capricorn were playing Mario kart. Capricorn was in last place because he didn't know how to play. Aries and Sagittarius kept teaming against Gemini and they kept pushing his character into the lava. Aries and Sagittarius finished tied for first place.
"Let's play again," said Capricorn.
Sagittarius snickered. "You want to lose again?"
"I will beat you guys this time!" said Gemini.
Aries sighed. "That's not likely, but yeah we can play again." When they were playing again, Aries and Sagittarius teamed up and pushed Gemini's character into the lava again.
"No fair! You girls play naughty," whined Gemini.
"I thought that's the way you liked them," said Aries. Gemini remained silent.
***
Finally, Pisces, Scorpio, Cancer and Libra were playing Mario party. Scorpio and Cancer always targeted each other.
"YAY I WON!" said Pisces excitedly.
"Good job," said Scorpio and Cancer at the same time. Then they kept playing for a while.
"So far Pisces won 20 times, I won 9 times and Scorpio and Cancer won 0 times," announced Libra.
"How about a victory hug?" asked Pisces. Then she ran over and hugged Scorpio and Cancer. Libra joined in on the group hug. Then Virgo came downstairs.
"Time to come upstairs, school in the morning," said Virgo.
Cancer groaned. "Okay mom." Everyone went upstairs and got ready to go to sleep.
