Chapter 2
As Pisces walked into her house that she was sharing with her new roommates, Aries, Taurus, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, and Aquarius, she was met with the strong scent of flowers.
Β Β "Ahhhh! Pisces!" Squealed an over excited red head.
Β Β Β "Oh! Cancer, wow, hi." I say as she practically attacks me with a hug.
Β Β Β "Sorry, sorry! I'm a bit of a hugger! Sometimes I may cross some boundaries."
Β Β "Um, you're alright. Are you the first one here?" I ask, slightly overwhelmed.
"Yep! It's Just You and me!"
"Oh, well where's our Head Of House?"
"She went to get us all a pizza. She should be back before to long."
"Okay! That sounds good!" With my spirits filled with the thought of pizza, I brought the rest of my stuff in. As I finished bringing everything into the common room, I found Cancer to have disappeared.
Β Β "Um, Cancer, Where'd you go?" I holler.
Β Β "Right Here."
Β Β "Oh Jesus!" I yell as Cancer Steps out from the shadows.
Β Β "Wait-you were right there the whole time?" I ask, bewildered.
Β Β "Yeah, guess you just didn't notice me." She shrugged.
Β Β "I-but I looked there. It was like you just appeared out of nowhere."
Β Β "Well, clearly you didn't, because I was right there the whole time!" She snapped.
Β Β "Oh. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you."
Β Β "Yeah, well, I'm going to go up to my room, alright?"
Β Β "Alright." I respond, a little shooken by Cancers sudden change of odd behavior. "I-um, guess I'll go bring everything into my room" I say as Cancer glides past me with a glare that could slice through bedrock.
Β Β Β As I head upstairs, carrying my boxes full of books, I feel the sudden ball of nervousness in my throat, which feels oddly similar to the throbbing you get in your throat when you're about to cry. As I try to shrug the feeling away, I slowly climb the creaky steps, for fear that Cancer may get crabby again. As I stepped in my room for the first time, I fell in love. It was cozy, but not to cozy. There was a twin bed in the corner, and on the opposite wall was a nice black couch, with a throw pillow that was a sorta mellow type of yellow. There's was a bookshelf next to my bed, which was a beautiful tan color. I sat on the ground and started unpacking my books (and taking my time running my fingers over the book covers). As I got to the second shelf (I'm definitely going to need another bookshelf) I heard the door open downstairs.

"Okay, let's go over our checklist one more time." Taurus said to Gemini, her friend of 30 minutes.
Β Β "Taur, we do not need to go over the checklist to see if you got everything out of the limo."
Β Β "Okay, that limo is pretty darn big, and that driver seemed pretty sketchy. I wouldn't be surprised if he nabbed something." As I grabbed my sun glasses, Gemini helped me bring my bags into my new house, Iris. As I walked in, I was greeted by Aries, Leo, and Cancer.
"Ahhh Taurus! And who is this young gentlemen." Leo swooned.
"Nice to meet you, malady. Gemini, at your service", he bowed and winked.
"Well, Mr. Gemini, I'm Leo." Leo said flirtingly.
"And who is this?" He asked about Aries and Cancer, Aries sitting uncomfortably to the side.
"I'm Cancer, and this is Aries." Said an overly excited Cancer.
"Well, I truly am a lucky man to have met three extraordinary ladies all in one night, but I must get going. If any of you'd like to contact me, I'll be in the House of Lee, out yonder." He left dramatically.
"So, are you two together?" Leo asked pointedly, peering out the window after him.
"What? No, we're just friends."
"Do you know if he's available?"
"No, it didn't come up."
"Hmm. Okay."
"Soooo, does anyone know where Virgo or Aquarius is?"
"Aquarius went with Alice, our Head Of House, to get pizza, and I don't know where Virgo is."
"Virgo made a pit stop to get coffee." Said a quiet voice on the stairs.
"Oh! Pisces! You finally came out of your room." Said Aries.
"Sorry, I was busy putting up my books."
"You're alright! Come sit down next to the fire. We'll wait for Virgo and Aquarius." Leo said.
"To do what?" Aries asked.
"To play Never Have I Ever." She said with a mischievous grin as she pulled out a bottle of booze.
