"Remind me why we're doing this again?" asked Gemini. They were at a daycare babysitting kids because the girl that owns the day care was sick.

"Extra money. And there's twelve of us," said Virgo.

Aries pulled a kid away from the her. "How does one woman take care of all these kids?"

"The girls that help her are taking the day off since we're here," said Virgo.

Gemini sighed. "So she trusts twelve teenagers to take care of a bunch of kids?"

"Actually me, Pisces, Capricorn and Cancer are known for being excellent babysitters," said Virgo.

Aries laughed. "Little Miss perfect Virgo does it all!"

"Hey! You'd be a good babysitter if you didn't yell at the kids," said Virgo.

"That was because they were pulling on my hair and trying to brush my teeth with hot sauce. One little girl put ketchup on my head and tried to eat me..."

"Now we know why Aries doesn't like little kids," said Gemini.

"I like little kids, just not babysitting."

A little boy ran up to Gemini and kicked him in the knee.

"What was that for?" asked Gemini. The little boy ran away screaming. "I hate this."

"At least you're not Pisces right now," said Virgo. They looked over to the little kids playing with play dough and throwing it at Pisces and rubbing it in her hair.

"These kids are violent," said Aries.

Virgo crossed her arms. "So were YOU as a little kid."

"Are you guys going to sit there talking the whole time or can you help me?!?" asked Pisces with one kid sitting on her neck, three kids hanging off her arms and two kids with their arms wrapped around her legs. One bit her hand.

"I'm never doing this again," said Gemini while they pulled kids away from Pisces.

Capricorn, Taurus and Scorpio were in the kitchen making snacks for the kids.

"If the teacher asks how my weekend went, I'm saying I baby sat demons in hell because it's basically the same as this," said Scorpio. Taurus flicked his forehead.

"These kids are savages, no wonder they are paying us so much to babysit them," said Capricorn.

"At least we get to eat some of these snacks," said Taurus while eating fish crackers.

Pisces walked in the kitchen with her clothes covered in play dough and her hair was in a messy bun.

"What did they do to you?" asked Scorpio.

Pisces sighed and stole Taurus' fish crackers. "I can't take this anymore. Those monsters hate me."

"Want to make snacks with us?" asked Capricorn.

"Sure," replied Pisces. Then she ate a strawberry.

"How much longer do we have to be here?" asked Taurus.

Capricorn checked his watch. "Five hours."

Pisces groaned. "I have a shift at the pet store an hour after we're finished here."

"There's like, fifty kids here," said Scorpio.

"The ones in the corner reading books are actually kind of cute," said Pisces.

"After this lets get some bubble tea and celebrate the fact that we're still alive," said Scorpio.

Pisces nodded. "Good idea."

"Scorpio, stop feeding Pisces strawberries and keep making sandwiches," scolded Capricorn.

"But she's so cute when she eats them."

"Yah. I love strawberries," said Pisces.

Capricorn took the strawberries and put them in the fridge.

Pisces gasped dramatically. "Strawberries! No!"

"I think you better give her back the strawberries," said Taurus.

Capricorn sighed."Fine." He gave her back the strawberries. Scorpio tossed one in the air and Pisces caught it in her mouth. Taurus clapped.

Aquarius, Cancer, Leo, Libra and Sagittarius were watching the kids in the playroom.

"Who wants to play family?" asked a little girl.

"Me," said several kids.

She walked up to Sagittarius. "Can you be the mommy?"

"Sure." Sagittarius played with the kids.

"I actually don't mind watching these kids. The others have all the violent ones," said Aquarius.

Cancer smiled fondly. "Little kids are adorable."

"One of them is pulling on my foot!" said Libra.

"Libra... That's just Leo," said Aquarius.

Libra looked down. Leo was smiling. Then he got up and sat on the couch beside her.

Aquarius and Cancer were whispering to each other.

"It's obvious they like each other," said Sagittarius who sat down beside Libra.

"How can we get them to admit their feelings to each other?" asked Libra.

"HEY AQUA AND CANCER! WE KNOW YOU GUYS LIKE-"

Libra covered Leo's mouth. "Not like that."

"You know we like what?" asked Aquarius.

"We know you guys like babysitting," replied Sagittarius.

"Okay..." said Cancer. Then he continued talking to Aquarius.

"LEO! What do you think you're doing?" asked Libra.

He shrugged. "He likes her. She likes him. We should get them to confess their love so they can get a room." Libra flicked him on the forehead. "Ow."

"Seriously! What should we do?" asked Sagittarius.

"Let's trick them into going on a romantic date and maybe she'll confess she loves him and they can get married eight years from now," said Leo.

"That's actually a good idea," said Sagittarius.

Libra crossed her arms. "For a guy that knows so much about romance, you havn't taken me on a date yet."

"Ha! Leo's in trouble," said Sagittarius. Leo whispered something to Sagittarius. "She'll love it!"

"Shhhhhh!" hushed Leo.

"What?" asked Libra.

"Looks like Leo's planning two dates tonight."

"SHHHHHHH!"

Libra stood up. "Let's ask Aries, Gemini and Virgo what they think about our plan."

***

Aquarius was showing off how well she could play a game on her phone when Leo, Libra and Sagittarius left the room. It was just her and Cancer so she got nervous.

"I wonder where they're going," said Cancer.

"Leo and Sag are probably up to something," said Aquarius. She nervously tucked a bit of hair behind her ear. Cancer loved it when she did that.

Then Pisces yelled "LUNCH TIME!" so they walked into the dinning room.

***

Everyone was home. Aquarius was in her room wearing a nice dark blue dress and straightening her hair. Libra invited her to go to a very fancy restaurant with her. She told Aqua to sit at the table in the corner next to the window no matter what. Libra was acting a bit strange but Aquarius ignored it.

***

Libra and Aquarius arrived at the restaurant. Aquarius was walking when she noticed Libra was no longer beside her. As she walked to the table in the corner next to the window, she noticed Cancer sitting there.

***

Cancer was wondering where Leo went when Aquarius sat in the chair across from him.  What's going on? Why is Aquarius here? Why does she look so beautiful? thought Cancer. Then he got a text.

Leo: Libra was feeling sick so I decided to take her home. Have fun on your date! 😉

Cancer realized what Leo was doing.

"What's wrong?" asked Aquarius.

"Libra felt sick so Leo took her home," said Cancer.

"Oh. Well Libra gave me some money and told me to spend it no matter what so I guess we can still eat here."

"No."

"No what?"

"Pocket the money, I'll pay."

"Wow, uh... Thanks but this place is really expensive to eat at."

"I've got enough money as long as you don't eat over two hundred dollars worth of food."

Aquarius laughed. "No need to worry about that."

***

Libra sat beside Leo at a table far enough away that Cancer and Aquarius won't notice them but, they'll still be able to watch them.

"We better leave now. They're talking to each other and everything seems calm," said Libra.

"Not so fast," said Leo. Then a few waiters came and put a bunch of food on their table.

"Leo-"

"I know what you're going to say, but I already bought the food so you might as well enjoy it."

Libra smiled. He remembered all her favourite foods and desserts.

***

The waiters came and cleaned up all the plates and glasses.

"That was delicious," said Aquarius.

"Yeah. They cook really good food," agreed Cancer. Then he got a text.

Leo: This is boring. Kiss her!

Cancer looked around but didn't see Leo anywhere.

"Follow me." They already payed for the food so they walked outside and got in the car.

"What is it?" asked Aquarius.

"Leo and maybe Libra too planned this all out and they were watching us."

Aquarius blushed."Why would they plan for us to eat there alone?" She already knew the answer.

"Because I really like you Aquarius. You're different and you don't care what other people think. I like that."

"I like you too," said Aquarius. They were about to kiss when they saw Leo and Libra walking towards the other car. They decided to go home.

***

"Do you think the plan worked?" asked Aries.

"How should I know?" asked Virgo.

"Don't you know everything?" asked Aries. Virgo rolled her eyes.

Sagittarius smiled. "I hope it did."

Pisces skipped around the room throwing confetti everywhere.

"Why are you making a big mess?" asked Virgo.

"To celebrate the fact that we're all dating someone now," said Pisces.

Capricorn gave her a funny look. "We don't even know if they're dating!"

"Trust me. They are," said Sagittarius.

Taurus pulled the curtains across. "They're home."

Scorpio ran to look out the window. "It's not Cancer and Aqua. Callie's back!" Everyone looked up in fear. "Just kidding. It's Leo and Libra."

Pisces started fake crying. "You scared me so much Scorpio. That was so mean."

Scorpio ran over to her. "Oh no! Pisces I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to scare you it was meant to be a harmless prank. Can I make it up to you?"

"I want a s-smoothie," cried Pisces. Scorpio ran to the kitchen, Pisces laughed.

"Smart Pisces," said Taurus.

Pisces stuck her tongue at the kitchen door. "You don't mess with me."

Leo and Libra walked into the house. Gemini jumped out of the closet wearing a mask. Leo screamed and jumped into Libra's arms.

"Not funny Gemini!" said Leo.

Aries made an over-dramatic laugh. "It was hilarious!"

"Someone scare Aries so she'll jump into MY arms," said Gemini.

"Heard that," said Aries.

Sagittarius picked Aries up and dropped her into Gemini's arms.

Gemini shrugged. "Or you could do that."

Scorpio came out of the kitchen with a smoothie. Pisces started fake crying again.

"I'm so sorry Pisces," said Scorpio.

Pisces drank the smoothie. "It's okay!"

"She tricked you!" said Capricorn.

Scorpio furrowed his brow. "No one tricks the prank master Scorpio."

"HOW ARE YOU THE PRANK MASTER?!?" yelled the fire signs.

"Obviously Pisces is a better prankster than you," said Taurus.

Virgo took a bite of her popcorn. "This is entertaining."

"Where the hell did that popcorn come from?!?" asked Capricorn.

"I'M the prank master!" argued Leo.

"No I am!" argued Sagittarius.

Gemini looked at Aries. "Should we tell them we're the prank masters?"

"Meh," said Aries.

"What does "MEH" mean?!? It's not a word!" said Virgo.

"I have a secret for you Virgo," said Taurus.

"What?"

"Meh."

Virgo face palmed.

***

Cancer purposely took a wrong turn while driving so Leo and Libra would get to the house before them. Once they got into the garage, no one knew they were home yet.

"I believed we were interrupted from something very important," said Aquarius.

"We were," said Cancer before they kissed. Cancer was about to get out of the car.

"Wait!"

"What?"

"No one knows we're here yet. We don't have to walk inside now."

"Good point." They started kissing again.
