《Zodiac One Shots》Denial (Scorpio (f) x Leo (m))
Advertisement
(Scorpio's POV)
I walk down the street. My house comes into view. As I pass all the houses I see Leo in the window of a big house. He looks so hot! Ugh, what are you doing Scorpio! I look down at my feet and keep walking. I can't fall in love. I keep walking until I reach my front door. I open the door to see a big mess and my mom sitting at the counter. She appears to be crying. I stare at her, not sure if she heard me walk in. She suddenly looks up with blood-shot eyes.
"Mom?" I say.
She slowly gets up and shuffles over to me. She hugs me tighter than I have ever been hugged. She mutters in my ear with a softness I haven't heard in her voice for a long time,
"Honey, me and your father are getting divorced..."
I jump away from her and stare at her, my eyes wide with shock. I couldn't believe it. I run out of the house and down the street towards the park. I run a block before the park is in view. I sit down at a bench and take out my notebook.
I scribble a drawing of a flower. Then I pull out my phone once the tears stop. I call Cancer and as the phone rings I feel a raindrop on my face. Cancer picks up.
"Hello?" She answers.
"Hey um, can I like, vent to you?"
"Sure!"
I feel more tears rush down my face as I begin to talk.
"My parents are getting divorced and I don't know why! They seemed so happy together! And each day I fall a little more in love with Leo every day! How am I supposed to make a move when I can barely walk?" I gasp for breath. The rain starts pouring down harder.

"Where are you?" Cancer asks.
"The park..."
"OMG! It's raining! Get inside before you get soaked!"
I hang up, put my hood on, and close my eyes.
(Leo's POV)
I walk downstairs and see my little sister on the couch. I overhear Cancer and Scorpio's phone call. I hear what Scorpio said and I quickly get my shoes and jacket on. I rush out the door and get on my bike. I ride towards the park. After a few minutes, I see the park. I then see someone sitting on the bench. I start yelling out,
"SCORPIO!"
No answer.
"SCORPIO!"
The person turns around and I see Scorpio's dark eyes sparkle. I stop my bike and run to her. She sees me getting closer and gets up. I thought she was gonna walk to me, but she starts walking away. I run faster and grab her arm. She turns around and looks into my blue eyes. I dip her and kiss her softly. The rain patters down on us. I pull away and we hear something.
We look around and see some little kids clapping. Their mom gets mad and leads them away. I chuckle and look back at Scorpio.
"Did you mean what you said?" I asked.
She looked up at me, "When?"
"When you told Cancer what happened..."
She looks away and quietly answers, "O-oh... You heard that..."
"Of course I heard it! Cancer had the phone on speaker," I smile.
"Yes, it's true..." She mutters. I pick her up and sit her down on my handle bars and I took us back to my house. Once we arrived, I got us some coffee and we watched a movie. I held Scorpio close in my arms and kissed her forehead every now and then. She ate dinner with us and she called her mom and asked to spend the night. Her mom said she could and she stayed with Cancer in her room. We played board games and we also played on the Wii. With every passing moment her smile got bigger. She seemed so happy.

A Generic Dungeon Core Story
When one falls… what happens? Do they just disappear into an endless abyss? Do they got to a final resting place to lay forever? Do they get to look down proudly upon the world from the clouds or look up in regret as they are burned and tortured? One man… person found out the hard way as he fell into a dark abyss after having surely died only to found himself awake again with most of his memories and knowledge blocked of as he was reincarnated into a 10ft cube as a small glowing sky blue orb…. This is my first actual foray to the world of webnovels as I’ve never wrote any stories before… *cough cough * edgy horny filled teenage fanfics do not count whatsoever *cough cough*. I am very new to the world of novels and I am not a native English speaker so expect a lot of grammar mistakes. The story will update on weekends on Saturday or whenever I feel like uploading as I do not have much free time and this is only a novel I write to improve my writing skills. What can you expect from the story? - Dungeons? Of course, this is the main theme of the story. - Multiple leads? Yes, there will be multiple perspectives from many different characters with at least 4 main characters. - Gamelit? The world is ruled by a system… that does absolutely nothing other than a way to view your stats and progression. - Murder hole? No, the lead character has a challenging yet fair view on how dungeons should operate, don’t get me wrong as he will still kill people if they are evil, careless or overestimate their abilities but don’t expect too much death as I feel that most adventurers would be smart enough to know their abilities especially when they have to do it themselves instead on relying on skills or the system. - Cultivation? No, the ability to gain power from sitting still and breathing never made any sense to me and it will be completely broken if the MC gets their hands on it so… no. - Non-human MC? Yes, they are a dungeon after all and yes, dungeons do get avatars but it is a specialized procedure that many choose not to do. Also, if the dungeon gets an avatar, no he will not be some wish giving demigod or whatever. - Magic? Yes, but it is very limited and down to the ground... from my notes... which means nothing - Art? Yes, I’m a hobbyist-artists so expect some art sketches here and there… I am poor so I do not have line art pens or tablets or adobe photoshop… also no scanners so… pictures of pencil-sketches it is, no coloring though since I am terrible at coloring. - Comedy? Yes, if you can call my bad attempts at humor comedy. - Likeable characters? Hopefully… especially since I accidentally made like... 60 characters … how I made 6 originals into 60?… I have no idea whatsoever… - Adventurers/invaders/delvers/etc…? Yes! My favorite part about dungeon core novels are when delvers delve into the dungeon and reading how they react, I will definitely flesh out the delvers and show how they operate more than usual hopefully. Hopefully you like the story, I will not have a patreon or paypal or whatever mostly because I’m under 18, thanks for at least reading this far and I hope that my writing is at least passable and you enjoy the story… if not then at least I got some writing practice in English.
