Scorpio & Capricorn

Chapter 1 Partners?

…Be the Scorpio…

Your name is Vriska Serket, you have gorgeous long black hair, blue lips, and a stunning figure…if you do say so yourself. You are one of the most popular girls in your school, mostly because you date almost anyone that asks you out, but that is totally beside the point. You are currently in your drama class at the moment pretending to be intrigued by your class mates' acting. For the record you only decided to take drama because you thought it would be an easy A, you thought for sure that you would find great joy in making fun of people for messing up their lines, or even bursting out into a laughing fit when somebody fell off the stage (you hoped it was tavros), but to your dismay nothing even remotely funny or interesting for that matter happened in your third period. You crossed one of your legs over the other and leaned back in your chair, oh what you would give for a good nap right about now.

You slowly let your head lean backwards as you slowly closed your eyes, though just when you were finally quite comfortable an annoying voice echoed through the whole auditorium, damn those insanely amazing acoustics. "Vriska! Your turn!" an elderly woman with a strong Romanian accent roared. You slowly opened your eyes and gave a tired sigh, "Alright Alright, I hear ya" you whispered through gritted teeth. You slowly made your way over to the stage manly because you were oh so tired, and also because you enjoyed pissing the old dinosaur of a woman off. You stopped right in front of the steps; you turned your head and smiled cutely at the teacher before walking away from the steps and jumping up onto the stage instead.

You giggled softly to yourself, the old bat's expression was priceless, this was one of those times where you really wished you had brought your camera. You smiled slyly, everyone's eyes were on you, and you wouldn't have had it any other way. You had looked at your lines five minutes ago and already you had memorized your entire script. You placed a hand on your chest and raised the other dramatically; you restrained yourself from bursting out into fits of giggles when you saw the elderly women roll her pale blue eyes. "Romeo oh R-" "Sorry I'm late motherfuckers" you glared daggers at the tall and lanky teen who sauntered into the room. " where may I ask were you?" "Oh umm, I had to up and go to the bathroom" the boy with loads of face paint on his face stated.

"In other words he was getting high" you crossed your arms and smirked hearing some of the other students laugh softly. The tall boy stared at you lazily before grinning sloppily; you quickly averted your eyes and cleared your throat. "Don't be late again in the future " the Makara boy handed the wrinkly women his schedule before plopping down in one of the many seats. "Alright then, well my name is Ms. Valentine, you may call me any other silly names you want but I will not answer to them" she spoke quick and to the point. "before we were interrupted-" Ms. Valentine paused and stared at the male troll who smiled sheepishly, "we were working on our lines, everyone has chosen their partners, except for of course Vriska, who claims she likes to work alone, but since we finally have another body, meaning you, I'm insisting you be her partner" Ms. Valentine grinned wildly.

Your jaw dropped and your eyes almost popped out of your head. "Cat got your tongue ?" you could see how amused that old dinosaur was; you hated her with all your being, you really wish she was extinct. "H-He doesn't even know his lines!" you finally spoke. "I'm sure someone as intelligent as you are completely capable of teaching him" Ms. Valentine smiled at Gamzee before looking at you. "Good luck , you're going to need it" she threw her head back and laughed before walking out of the room leaving her students to practice. You growled loudly before jumping off of the stage, you ignored the stares you got and stomped over to Makara.

You grabbed the Capricorn by his shirt and pulled him close to your face, "Listen you, I HAVE to get an A in this class! If you ruin this for me I'll decapitate you! Are we clear?" you growled threateningly. "Whoa motherfucker, decapitation is a bit much don't you think?" he slurred. You wiggled your nose, his breath smelt of booze and weed mixed with popcorn and…hot wings? "I'd say it's a fair punishment" you pushed him back roughly before crossing your arms. "You'll motherfucking get your A" he rubbed the back of his neck and sighed, "Why are you even in this class? I thought for sure someone of your…background would rather spend his time sleeping school away in detention" you stared curiously at the baked teen.

"Sleeping the day away sounds up and amazing right now, but I need more credits if I'm going to graduate motherfucker" he pushed a few messy locks of hair out of his face and stared up at you with glazed yellow eyes. "I see, and my name isn't motherfucker dumbass" you took a seat beside him and leaned your head back. "?" he smiled his sharp fangs glistening in the light. You glared at him before rolling your eyes, "No, just Vriska" you huffed as you pulled your knees up to your chest. It was quiet for a few minutes; you couldn't believe you were actually having a conversation with the school's stoner. "So what's yours?" you finally asked when it didn't seem like he was going to say anything anytime soon.

"My what?" he blinked at you confused, "Your name asshole" "ohh" he let out a low chuckle and brushed his fingers through his messy hair. "Well?" you snapped growing impatient. "Gamzee" he yawned, you sighed, God was this kid exhausting. "Bet you wish you were in detention to take a fucking nap now huh?" you let out a small laugh. "Oh God, you have no idea motherfu- I mean Vriska" he gave an apologetic smile causing you to smile as well. Gamzee yawned again, "Yo Vrisk, mind if I borrow your lap?" the male asked sleepily, before you give an answer the juggalo's head had already fallen into your lap.

"Uhmm, Gamzee?" there was no reply, you poked at the other's forehead, but the only thing you got out of him in return were the sounds of soft snoring. You rolled your eyes and gave a small smile, though when you felt several pairs of eyes on you you looked up and frowned. You liked attention and all, but right now it really wasn't needed. "The hell are you staring at?" you snapped causing the other students to quickly avert their eyes and go on about their business. You looked over gamzee's sleeping face, you had to admit he was quite the cutie…wait what? You shook your head trying to erase the thought from your mind, you had the sudden urge to push the sleeping troll off your lap, but you restrained yourself and let the other continue to sleep peacefully.
