Taurus' POV
The punchbag landed with a huge thud.
"Whoa you're mad. What's up?" I asked.
Aries looked up from glaring at the defeated punch bag. "I got an interview," he said shortly.
"That's a good thing," I raised an eyebrow.
"It's the same time Scorp leaves," he sighed.
"Do I want a job or to say goodbye to a family member?" He groaned.
"That's a dilemma. Talk to him about it," I suggested.
"Talk to who about what?" Speaking of the devil, scorpio walked in, sword in hand.
"I have an interview the same time you leave," Aries said.
"Jeez why are you even thinking about that? You need to go to the interview dummy. Once in a lifetime opportunity, We can say bye before we both leave," Scorpio shrugged.
"But-,"
"No buts Ari. Go to the Interview. Or else," Scorpio said.
"Yeah okay," Aries hung up another bag and started punching it.
"Anyways, hi Taur," Scorp waved.
I waved back cheerfully. "You packing up yet?" I asked.
"Later," he grumbled.
"You need to do it," I said.
"I know... I'm just... leaving tomorrow and I... I don't know," he mumbled.
"Well you need to get ready, you're a soldier," Aries said.
"Yeah I know," scorp grumbled and started attacking one of his dummies.

So later, I found myself helping Scorpio pack his things up. Cap had another interview, Sag was making dinner, Aries was preparing for his interview, Leo is... Leo and Cancer was also making dinner, and the other girls... were watching some TV show. So I'm the only one left. Whoop whoop.
"Neatly Taurus, neatly," Scorpio called from inside his and Cap's wardrobe.
"Ugh. This is so boring. How long are you going for?" I asked.
"Twelve to fifteen months," he answered.
"That's a long time," I whistled.
"You can send letters to me once a week," he shrugged as he threw another black t-shirt my way. I caught it and folded it 'military style' or whatever.
"Drat Cancer used up the last of my toothpaste," he swore.
"Doesn't she use that strawberry hello kitty one?" I chirped.
"You will never tell anyone. Ever," Scorpio glared as he came out the bathroom, wash bag in hand. I chuckled.
"I swear,"
"Good," he gave me a glare before putting his wash kit neatly in his bag.
"What about the rest of your stuff?" I asked.
"Cance and Cap said they were going to box it up and take half the boxes each with them when they leave college next year," he answered.
"DINNER IS READY EVERYONE!" Sag shouted.
"Yes I am free!" I cheered.
Scorpio rolled his eyes.

"What should we do tonight?" Libra asked.
"Watch a film?" Gem suggested.
"What film?" Aqua questioned.
"Saving private Ryan," Aries suggested.
"1917?" Mini said.
"Dunkirk," Capricorn said.
"The boy in the striped pyjamas?" Sag chimes in.
"No war films. Please," cancer practically begged.
"Darkest hour!" I shouted.
"Sure. Why not?" Pisces shrugged.
"Then a musical," Virgo said.
"Ooh mamma Mia!" Leo said.
"No! Mary Poppins!" Sag argued.
"Mamma Mia?" Virgo asked.
Leo, Pisces and Gem raised their hands.
"Mary Poppins?"
The rest of us raised our hands.
"The first one or the second?" I asked.
"Both," Aqua said.
"Yeah that's cool," Libra nodded.
