《Zodiac One Shots》This isn't acting (Aquarius (f) x Libra (m))
Advertisement
(Aquarius' POV)
"Love is powerful! It can break mountains! And you're telling me it can't open up your heart?" I cry out to my new co-actor. We are practicing for a play on Broadway, it's called "Caged".
"What do you know about love! You hate the world! You push everyone away! You pushed me away! You're heartless!" My co-actor, Libra, shouts. His emotion was so real.
"Scene!" The director calls out.
We walk off stage and get water. Libra bumps into me, but keeps walking. I fight the urge to shout at him. I ran my fingers through my hair as I yawn. The play hit a little close to home, but I keep walking. I head straight for the door, not caring if the director wants to talk, Capricorn can text me if she wants.
I get into my car and drive off. About 20 minutes later, some car in front of me starts driving like a piece of trash! I open my window and start shouting, since I always have road rage.
"Who ever thought you were qualified to drive in the heart of New York was the dumbest piece of trash, just like you!" I scream.
"LOOK WHO'S TALKING!" Is all I get in reply.
I roll up my window and drive for the next 5 minutes in a silent fit. I arrive at my apartment, and walk in. My room mate, Aries, was out staying with her sister. I was alone, in more ways than one.
I get a text from Capricorn.
Capricorn: Hi, Aquarius! I need you to hang out with Libra more so your bond grows, that way the emotion in the play is more believable. Thanks!
Aquarius: Whatever, I'll ask him now...
I text Libra.
Aquarius: Hey, Capricorn wants us to hang out more. Come over, my address is 1010 Zodiac ave.

Libra: k
30 minutes later, Libra arrives and we sit on the couch. We talk about the play and how Capricorn wants us to grow a bond. We order a pizza and talk some more.
"On my way home, someone started screaming that I'm a terrible driver! I just yelled 'Look who's talking!' People can be so insensitive..." He says.
"Oh... That was me..." I say, ashamed.
"The thing is... It was just a minute after I got a call, my grandpa died..." He trailed off.
I felt so upset that I said such mean things. I pat him on the back, trying to keep thing casual, not wanting to make things mushy. I look deep into his green eyes, and I felt a new feeling, a weird feeling, but it seemed so familiar...
I push myself into him and we kiss passionately. We pull away after a minute and I say sorry. I start crying, something I never do. Libra wraps his arms around me, gently. I let him hold me, and I let the tears fall.
"You're right! I don't know anything about love! My parents were never home, I never had a pet or a doll I cherish! My heart has been broken before, and I have trust issues! I don't know what's wrong with me! I'm heartless, you were right! I don't know why I'm feeling all this now, when you're grieving!" I cry.
He shushes me and picks my small body up. He takes me to my room and tucks me in bed. He says goodnight, kisses me on the forehead, then leaves.
-o-o-o-The Next Morning-o-o-o-
I come out of my room and look around. I see the soda and pizza in the fridge, the blankets folded and set neatly on the couch, and a vase that I've had for awhile, that used to sit there, empty, was full of beautiful flowers!

I walk out side and see Libra's car still out by the curb. I walk up to the window and see Libra lying in the passenger seat, sleeping. I tap on the window and he wakes up, his hair all ruffled. I blush at his handsome smile, while he opens the door. I lean in and give him a sweet kiss on his cheek.
"Come in! Let's have some coffee!" I say, grabbing his hand.
We go back in side and drink our coffee. We cuddle up on the couch and watch T.V.
"I trust you..." I whisper.
"Did you read the note?" He asks.
I get up, "No," I walk to the vase and point, "Here?"
"Yeah."
I look and find a note...
I turn, and hug him.

The Radiant War
The human world is aflame with war. Nations clash with their neighbours, while the Kelvon Empire, bulwark of the human world, stands on the brink of civil war. The plans of the enemies of mankind to destroy human civilisation, to restore their own mastery of the world, are well on the way to success. The people of Helberion have vowed to defeat those plans, though. Peace must be restored between the various peoples of mankind so that they can combine their efforts against their true enemy. Even while her country strives to avoid conquest and defeat at the hands of their traditional enemies the Carrowmen, therefore, Princess Ardria journeys to Carrow to meet with the enemy King in an almost hopeless attempt to persuade him of the truth. All her hopes rest on the assumption that he in an unwitting dupe of the true enemy, but lurking at the back of her mind is the fear that he may be all too aware of the truth, that he may have sold out humanity for the promise of personal power. If this is true, then all that awaits her at the end of her journey through fear and danger is imprisonment and the life of a hostage to be used against her father, King Leothan. The Brigadier would help her if he could, but he and Malone, his former batman, are far away, each having their own missions to try and ensure the survival of human civilisation. Having completed his latest task, the Brigadier must race to join her, to assist and protect her, but will he reach her before she arrives at the palace of the enemy King? And will the Princess still have a country to be Princess of by the time she arrives there? Because even if Helberion manages to defeat the all conquering armies of Carrow there is another, even deadlier threat waiting in the wings against which there may be no defence... This is volume three of the Ontogeny series. If you haven't read volume one, Ontogeny, and volume Two, The Electric Messiah, you should read them first.
