"Ugh I hate the fire signs." Gemini whined out loud as he for the fifth time broke into my room today.
I looked at the blond hair wondering what he wanted to rant about now. It was starting to get like a tradition that he broke in to rant about all the bad things life gave him. Sometimes even Libra would join in. I sighed, in an extremely loudly way hoping the guy would get that I was busy.
Somehow the boy thought that was an invitation and jumped on my bed.
"How rude of you to not ask what happened." He said with a dramatic voice. He then sat up straight glaring at the wall spaced out.
I watched the boy, wondering what might have happened this time. After a bit of moral problems that I often get about these kind of things my heart won over my brain. I quickly placed my on my right and shook Gemini to show that I would listen.
"So why do you hate the fire signs?" I asked Gemini.
"They are all to hyped and they always ditch me and hang out without me." He said whining again.
I raised an eyebrow at him.
"You know that's not a good reason to hate someone."
Gemini looked back at me in shock.
"That's what you always do and I don't recall anyone doing anything about it."
"I do not." I said stubbornly.
"Yes you do and you always lock yourself in your room. You only come out if you need something or if someone calls you." He exclaimed jumping up and down.
I got taken back a bit before collecting myself. It's true that I don't hang out with the others a lot but living with 11 other teenagers is a bit overwhelming.
"I am sorry." I apologised to him.
"Nah it's okay I get why you do it, it's a bit to much with 11 other people. But seriously that the part I said that you hate people for no reason is true." Gemini continued smugly.
"Any proof?" I asked him with a challenging tone.
"Well, you don't like Sagittarius and from what I have seen you don't even have a reason to why you don't." He replied playing with my hair. I didn't even notice it until now but when I looked over my shoulder I saw that he had started braiding it in to two braids. It looked really good and I made a mental note to myself that I would let the blond boy braid it more often.
"Well me and Sagittarius have umm a difficult and special relationship you know? And besides you dislike Pisces for no reason and you don't see me pointing it out as much as you do on me and Sag." I countered as I was touching the braid, messing it up in the process.
"Hey stop and besides I do have a reason to that but it isn't your business you know?" Gemini replied smacking my hand away from the braid.
"Anyways now that's this is over do you want to go out and do something with me and Libra today? It can be an only air sign day!" Gemini asked and I turned around to meet his sea-green eyes. He was doing puppy eyes or rather trying, it looked like a kid holding back his tears or something. Now that I think about it he looks like a blond version of Percy.
"Do I have a choice?" I asked fearing the answer I would get.
"Nope come on, we have to get Libra." He said jumping of my bed.
"Wait I thought you said Libra was already involved in this." I yelled after him. As expected I didn't get a reply. I stood up wondering if he would notice me not following him.
'Screw it he would come back anyways.' I thought bitterly and walked after him.
...
"Cap we need to borrow your assistant for a day or so, but don't worry you will get him back whole." Gemini's voice was heard from the living room.
I could practically imagine what her expression was. Knowing Capricorn she probably made an eye roll but at the same time trying to suppress a smile.
"Have fun then." I heard the younger girl answer and seconds later Libra was dragged out of the room by Gemini.
"Let's go." He said excited and we both followed him as he lead us out of the house.
"What should we do first?" Libra said out loud.
"I know something we could do, let's go skydiving!" Gemini exclaimed excited. Libra agreed with a small nod.
"Ehh you guys know I am not that good with heights." I reminded nervously. Just the thoughts of going up the stairs made me dizzy and I don't want to know how skydiving would make me feel.
"Please we promise to be there for you and if it gets to scary for you then we could always leave." Gemini begged and Libra nodded as well. In the end I agreed with them and we all took a bus to the skydiving place.
"You guys seem a bit to young for this, how old are you?" The lady at the reception asked as I paid.
"16" I lied with a ensuring smile.
"Well then go and find all the things you need." The receptionist said.
...
"So is this everyone?" A young man who I assume was the instructor asked. Not getting any response the man decided to go to the plane, with us following him briskly.
As soon as we got on the plane, a bad feeling washed over me. As much as I tried to keep myself calm I couldn't control my hands from shaking. Unfortunately the boys noticed and they once again asked if I was okay. I lied not wanting to ruin anything. I felt the plane move and it wasn't before it was high up in the sky that I noticed that I was holding my breath.
The instructor told us that it was time for us to go to the back of the plane and preparing outself to jump.
"Hello this is the captain speaking. We are now above 4.2 kilometres from the ground."
I gulped loudly getting dizzier by the second. I never thought that we were jumping from this height.
"Hey Aqua, me and Libra have talked about it and we don't want to do the skydiving anymore." Gemini said getting my attention.
"What do you mean?" I asked clearly confused.
"Well, we noticed how scared you looked and we now we feel bad because we are making you go through this. We feel like bad friends, because we knew how much you hated height." Libra said bitting his lip.
"Yes and that's why we decided that we should go do something else, maybe go bowling?" Gemini continued.
I was so shocked that I couldn't speak. They really cared about me so much that they would sacrifice their plans just because of me. Just the thought of it made me tear up.
"Well sorry to interrupt your little conversation here but it's to late for you guys to chick out." The instructor said as the back of the plane opened.
"Wait, can't we just use the plane to get down?" Libra asked but the instructor shock his head.
"Sorry there is nothing I could do about it. But that's fine because you guys will really love this experience." He said and pushed us out with him. Not even holy water would be able to wash my mouth, all the things I said and cursed about that man. I looked around and a slightly panic came over me as I notice the distance between the ground and me. I felt like tearing up.
As I fell I felt something grab my hands, I looked up to see that it was a scared Libra and an overwhelmed Gemini. I somewhat felt happy that they were as scared as I was. As we quickly closed to the ground I felt the wind change and we somehow safely feel to the ground.
"That was awesome!" Gemini shouted but Libra disagreed.
"Remind me to never accept anything coming from Gemini." He muttered loudly.
"So what do you think, should we do it again Aqua?" Gemini asked and I took a second to reply.
"Never ever." I grinned happily.
