It's been a month since the first day of school. It was Friday. Everyone was relaxing in the living room.

Scorpio thought of an idea. "Hey guys! We should watch a few horror movies tonight."

"H-horror movies?" stuttered Pisces.

"HORROR MOVIES!" cheered Sagittarius.

"Sounds fun," replied Aries.

"Not at all," said Cancer.

"Why not?" asked Aquarius.

Pisces crossed her arms. "You guys are going to scare us again!"

"Yeah. I'll maybe watch one if Scorpio isn't here," said Capricorn.

"It's not like the things in the movie are real, or are they?" asked Gemini. Aries slapped him.

Taurus walked in the living room. As he was walking, he tripped and fell down. "Ow."

"Are you okay?" asked Aquarius.

"Y-Yeah, I might need help getting to the couch though."

"Okay, Leo can you help Taurus?" asked Virgo.

"Yeah. I suppose Leo could help me," sighed Taurus.

"I'll make Scorpio sit between Pisces and Cancer, so you guys can make sure he doesn't go anywhere," said Virgo.

Leo rubbed his hands together. "What if I try to scare them?"

"Be good," warned Virgo.

"Fine, I'll be good."

"If he doesn't, we'll tickle his feet!" threatened Libra.

Aquarius went to pick out a few movies on Netflix.

"That one sounds too creepy," said Cancer.

Scorpio's crossed his arms, Pisces on one side and Cancer on the other. "I want to watch it."

"If Gemini isn't here then I shouldn't have to be here," said Pisces.

Gemini walked in the living room. "I heard my name."

"Now that everyone else is here, you have to stay here as well," ordered Scorpio.

Pisces crossed her arms. "You're going to scare me."

"I can't scare you because I'm sitting right next to you."

"Still..."

"Anyway," said Aquarius. "We're watching the two movies that I picked out."

"Aquarius picks out the creepiest and most disturbing movies," said Aries.

"That's not a bad thing," said Leo.

Sagittarius pointed to a movie on the screen. "What's this movie about?"

"Watch and find out," replied Libra.

"I'll go get some popcorn and chips," Capricorn walked towards the kitchen.

"How can you guys enjoy watching creepy movies?" asked Cancer.

Sagittarius shrugged. "I don't know. I guess I like getting a little scared sometimes."

"You're never scared," said Virgo.

"But if you do get scared, I'll be there to comfort you," shouted Capricorn from the kitchen.

Gemini smirked. "Why do I get the feeling Sagittarius is going to end up comforting Capricorn?"

"Because that's what usually happens," replied Taurus.

"No!" shouted Capricorn from the kitchen.

"Yes," said everyone else.

"Capricorn, hurry up with the food so we can watch this movie!" shouted Taurus.

Half way into the movie, Aries was cuddling Gemini, Capricorn had his arm around Sagittarius, Virgo sat there kind of wishing she had someone to comfort her, Libra and Aquarius sat beside Leo and kept shaking his shoulders whenever something popped up causing him to scream, Scorpio sat between Pisces and Cancer and comforted them when they got scared and Taurus was tossing popcorn at Scorpio and watched as Scorpio looked around to see who was throwing popcorn at him.

"We're playing the next movie now!" shouted Aquarius.

Scorpio walked out of the kitchen holding a bowl of popcorn that he got during snack break between movies.

"What's this one about?" asked Pisces.

"A guy who lost his face-"

"Why are we watching such creepy movies?" asked Cancer interrupting Scorpio.

Capricorn shrugged. "We like watching them."

"Weren't you holding onto Sagittarius the whole time?" asked Leo.

"You know what's scarier then those horror movies?" asked Gemini.

"What?" asked Aries.

"Going back to school on Monday."

Taurus sighed. "Don't remind me."

"Pisces, Cancer, are you guys going to be alright? You look a little pale," said Libra.

"You don't have to watch the next one if you don't want to," said Virgo.

"But then you'll be quitters," said Sagittarius.

Aquarius shushed her. "Shhh! Don't torment them."

"We aren't quitters! We'll stick it out until the end!" announced Pisces.

"Yeah," cheered Cancer. "What she said!" Then they started watching the next movie.

After the movie, everyone went upstairs except for Cancer, Leo, Scorpio, Gemini and Capricorn. Leo told Cancer about the Taurus situation earlier.

"We need to talk," said Leo.

Taurus' eyes widened. "About what?"

"You've been acting strange lately," said Scorpio.

"Very strange," added Gemini.

"So?" asked Taurus. "You're always acting strange, Scorpio."

Capricorn shook his head. "Why are you acting strange?"

"Why is it a big deal?" retorted Taurus.

"Taurus, tell us the truth please," said Cancer.

"Truth about what?" asked Taurus.

"We think you like someone," said Scorpio.

"Yeah, I like everyone."

"You know what we mean," said Capricorn.

"Do you guys promise not to tell anyone?" asked Taurus.

"We promise," said everyone.

"I'm in love with... food!"

Cancer face palmed. "Taurus!"

"Tell us, or else we'll get Scorpio to prank you until you're willing to tell us," warned Gemini.

"What is this? Some kind of interrogation?" asked Taurus.

"I have a few pranks in mind," Scorpio cracked his knuckles.

"FINE! I think I have a crush on..."
