(Ack, sorry I disappeared for a half hour)
“N-No, I-I’m okay,” Virgo said nervously, surprised the stranger even bothered to help him at all as he takes the book shyly. He stacked up his books, but it was clear he was having a bit of trouble carrying them all as he gathered them in his arms.
(Someone wanna join Stoner Boy out back?)
(Yes, lol Taurus is on her way)
Taurus felt a buzz in her pocket and pulled her phone out. She read the message that she had received from Mars. "Hey, Mars is out back, I'm gonna go join him. Zoey, you gonna come?" Taurus asked while replying to Mars' text;
Be there in a moment.
Hell yeah. He replied, putting away his phone so he could grab his lighter and pack of cigarettes. He stuck it in his mouth and lit it with his lighter.
Scorpius smiled a little bit before taking about half of the stack of books. "Here, let me help." He laughs gently as he carries them, humming faintly as he does so. "Where to?" He asks curiously, looking down at the stranger with a bright smile.
Leo watched from afar.
{Sorry for the short response, I'm busy atm but don't just wanna go without saying anything lol}

“Sure,” Zoey chirped, agreeable. Why not?
Sage spotted Zoey and Taurus and walked up to them. Her eyes were sparkling, "Where you guys going?"
(Is it too late to join as Gemini?)

Virgo blushed furiously when the stranger took half his books and offered to help him. That kind of stuff never happened to him. “J-Just my locker,” He replied shyly, nodding in the direction he had been walking before they had bumped into each other.
Sage spotted Zoey and Taurus and walked up to them. Her eyes were sparkling, "Where you guys going?"
“Mars is out back and we’re heading out there to hang out with him, wanna come?” Zoey offered. She blew a wisp of dyed-blonde hair out of her face. Her dark brown roots were starting show through, so she’d have to bleach her hair again soon.
Sage had a grin on her face. She gave a nod, "I'll come. Do you know why he's outback? Or are we just going there to meet up?"
Zoey shrugged. “Taurus is the one who was texting him,” she answered. “He could be juggling chainsaws out there for all I know.”
"Lovely," Sage responded. She adjusted her bag on her shoulder, "Are you excited for the end of summer?"
“I’m definitely ready for summer to start,” Zoey responded, glancing at Sage. “No more homework!” She giggled. There were a lot of other things she was excited for as well. Maybe a summer romance? Or a new friendship? Or even a cool vacation (which seemed very unlikely)?
"Yeah!" Sage let out a cheer, "And I can study whatever I want to. That's what I'm most excited about."
“Studying is definitely not how I pass my time, but that actually sounds pretty cool! I’m thinking of throwing a party at some point if you’d want to come,” Zoey jabbered on brightly.
"I don't know," Sage said with some thought, "Oh who am I kidding. Of course, I'll come along!"
Zoey beamed. “Sweet! It’ll be so fun!” she cheered.
Sage gave a huge grin back, "Yeah it will!"
(Is it too late to join as Gemini?)
(Nope!)
"Well if we are gonna go hang with Mars we should probably do it today," Taurus grumbled a little bit. She started to walk to the back of the school. She caught sight of Mars smoking and continued to walk towards him. She leaned against the school wall and sighed, "Ugh, I just wanna play hooky today. I don't feel like doing homework today." Taurus complained.
"Probably," Sage nodded and followed along behind her, "Do you know what Mars is doing?"
Taurus kinda laughed, "Defiantly having a smoke."
