Horo-Scopes
 
Horo was sat opposite Ren quietly while Ren read the morning paper. Horo got bored so sneaked around behind Ren and lent his head down next to Rens without him noticing. He read the paper that had `Disaster hits third-world country' in big bold letters but Horo only noticed the horoscopes.
 
>BORING! Hmm horoscopes, wonder what the stars are telling us… Ren always stares at the stars maybe he'd be interested<
 
Horo: (Pointed at the horoscopes) Hey! Wanna know the future.
 
Ren: (Jumped back in surprise) How long have you been there?
 
>IS HE TRYING TO GIVE ME A HEART ATTACK? My heart already races when ever he's there! I'll kill him for this indignity, making me jump out of my skin like that…Sneaky Ainu! <
 
Horo: What's your sign? >God it sounds like I'm hitting on him with the worst pick up line<
 
Ren: Huh… My sign?
 
Horo: yeah like when your born tells you what sign you are like a Virgo, Scorpio or a Sagittarius like me.
 
Ren: What point is there in that? >What's that baka up to<
 
Horo: People believe that depending on your star sign they can see what's going to happen, like see the future or be guided by the stars. They think it will tell them their true love and whether they will get married… Heck they even think they can predict the weather with these things! >Maybe it will tell me what to do about my feelings for Ren…Yeah right! Keep dreaming Horo<
 
Ren: Do you believe in this garbage, predict the weather! Honestly >Don't tell me he actually believes in this crap<
 
Horo: Not really, but ya know it could be fun (Horo sits next to Ren) it couldn't hurt. >Wonder if his star sign is compatible with myn< (Horo smiles)
 
Ren: I suppose (Ren looks down at the horoscopes) >These are stupid, it's just another thing needy people use to make them selves feel like they can determine who they are going to be in love with and when they die. How can Horo find amusement in this? <
 
Horo: Look there's myn, Sagittarius. (Horo reads his out) `You will take things a few steps further in the process discover the impossible possible. Your opposite is the one you're destined to be with. Your chances for love today are 50%, first kiss taker'
 
Ren: This is mediocre >This thing doesn't make sense, it's a scam… and what does it men by first kiss taker? <
 
Horo: Come on Ren, haven't you ever thought about what might happen? Like will you fall in love and if so when? When's your first kiss… who's your first kiss? >why am I telling him this? He will never get it! <
 
Ren: Why would I? (Rens voice sounded sincere, it sounded like he really wanted to know) >What makes him think I could ever want that, the one person I wa… What am I thinking? < (Rens eyes widened and he looked at Horo as he'd just been slapped and in a state of shock)
 
Horo: Ren? >what was that look for, he looks a little pale<
 
Ren: (Collected his thoughts regaining his composure and then blinked back the blush that had creped across his face when Horo leaned in closer to inspect him) Lets just see what myn is, I'm a Capricorn right?
 
Horo: (Began to read out Rens horoscope) `That one you always tell yourself about will be there, your eyes will open to new realisations. You will be tested on how brave you really are and you will build an unbreakable bong with someone who is close to you. Your chances for love today is 50% first kiss taken
 
>What's that suppose to mean, prove how brave you really are… I don't need to prove anything. First kiss taken! This proves its trash, they ruined a perfectly good newspaper for the sake of idiots<
 
Horo: Yours is interesting, want to see who you're compatible with? >Wonder if it's me? <
 
Ren: >Wonder if it's him< Sure… Can't be any worse than the prediction.
 
Horo: Ok there we are your compatible with a… Sagittarius! (Eyes flung back in shock) >He's compatible with my star sign. Huh, what now? He doesn't feel anything for me<
 
(Ren looked just as shocked) >The paper mocks me! That baka could never love me, we are complete oppos… < (His eyes stayed fixated on Horo not even blinking once the entire time)
 
(They both blushed madly)
 
Horo: (smiled in a slightly uncomfortable and nervous way) Looks like were compatible. Who would have guessed? >OH GOD! I can't believe I said that! Dude, how weak do I sound…Is he blushing? <
 
Ren: (Said what he was thinking that second out loud in a quiet and frail way) Me… (He froze and the red colour drained from him leaving a pure white face plastered with utter fright) <Oh my god! I said that out loud, he's gonna walk away and all I'll see ever id the back of that bakas head, knowing every time I walk into a room hell leave it! Why does he make me feel like this? God what am I thinking? <
 
Ren stood to leave but was grabbed and pushed down back in his seat. Ren closed his eyes lashing out at what had dragged him back down into his seat but the person just grabbed both his arms. He pulled at them and tried to stand up to no avail and ended up flopping back down flat on his back, dragging who ever was holding his arms down on top of him. Horo looked down on Ren who was pouting in a sulky way looking quite devastated and yet he looked innocent… strange for Ren.
 
>What is he doing? What does he want? To watch me make a fool out of myself some more! How could I be so careless? <
 
>Did he just say something that suggests he likes me? Maybe if I told him how I feel he'd accept it, even if he didn't feel the same way? I haven't got anything else to loose. <
 
Ren: What do you want Horo? (He shouted this in frustration at the piercing look Horo gave him)
 
Horo: You
 
Ren: What? >Did he just… Does he… <
 
Horo: I want you! >Please get it Ren, I need you to understand<
 
Ren: What do you me…
 
Before Ren could finish his question Horo pressed his lips to Rens and began kissing him.
 
>Horos…Horo is… Kissing me! What should I do? He's so warm and it feels…safe. I want more< (Ren kissed back fiercely)
 
>I can't believe it! I'm kissing Ren! And he's kissing back! He's hot… Super hot! His heart is going a 100 beats a second, so is myn. He feels so dam good< (Horo slipped his tongue into Rens mouth savouring the tastes and feels of Rens mouth) >He tastes better than I ever dreamed<
 
They broke apart and inhaled deeply trying to get oxygen flowing again. They stared at each other and then pulled their arms around each other then began to think of the horoscopes prediction.
 
>It did say that his bravery would be tested and I'd say to be so open is brave, especially for him. He must of realised he cared, hmm wonder if he thought about me as much as I thought of him? I won't ever leave him, as it said unbreakable bond<
 
>He is amazing; we are made for each other even if we are complete opposites. We are destined to be together and what once seemed impossible has just become possible…Us! <
 
Horo: So do you still think horoscopes are silly? (Smirked at Ren raising his eye brows)
 
Ren: maybe they have some significance but still I wonder what the last part meant
 
Horo: What part
 
Ren: First kiss taken
 
Horo: Ren?
 
Ren: What?
 
Horo: (leaned in and whispered into Rens ear) Was I your first kiss?
 
Ren: (Going pink an whispering the answer back shyly) …Yes…
 
Horo: Then I took your first kiss
 
Ren: … Well, I think seems so you took my first kiss it's only fair I take something from you…
 
Horo: What do you mean? >What is Ren going on about? What is there to take? <
 
>This will be fun<
 
Ren leant in and whispered something into Horos ear and made him blush bright red, he then looked at the very seductive smile on Rens face and then returned the smile with his own. Ren grabbed Horos arm and led him out the room. They were all alone for the day because the others had decided to go to a school shindig, no-one was going to be in till that afternoon and the morning sun was still half mast far from the mid-day point in the sky.
