《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.

Occultus Draconem
In an ancient time of Kings and Queens, the Humans lived in harmony with the great beings that roamed the Earth. No kingdom was more peaceful than Cadmus, where the Cadmians existed beside the greatest creatures of all, the Dragons. The ruler of Cadmus, King Anguis, although very young, was much beloved. He never turned a deaf ear to the Humans or Dragons of Cadmus, and the kingdom flourished. Under the protection of the Dragons and their Empress, Queen Maeve, paired with Anguis' extraordinary ability to keep peace, the lands prospered and grew tenfold within a few short years. Cadmus and Draconia became the greatest kingdoms known to exist. But it was not meant to last. King Anguis, barely into adulthood, was murdered in the night. His death rocked Cadmus to its core, and the Cadmians mourned with the Draconians, grieving for their beloved King. As Prince Agni, Anguis' younger brother, assumed the throne, he declared war on the Dragons, announcing that the kingdom would be Cleansed. He enlisted a brutal army of elite hunter-assassins known as the Enforcers to carry out the Cleansing, and the kingdom was consumed by a shadow of tyranny. Cadmus became a war zone, and the land of Draconia was devastated. A group of survivors of the Cleansing, Dragons disguised in Human form, created a secret society known as the Occultus Draconem. As King Agni's power grew and the Enforcers became more brutal than ever, a rebellion stirred. The Occultus Draconem began stepping in to stop the Cleansings, fighting back for the freedom of the Dragons and swearing to bring peace back to Draconia and Cadmus. But how can they succeed without the heir to the Draconian throne?
