We kiss for a long time, letting the hot water pelt us as we do, our hands exploring each other as our lips and tongues intertwine.

Finally, Josh pulls away from my mouth and licks my jawline.

I shudder with pleasure. Oh, God, I can’t get enough of him. I’m absolutely intoxicated with him.

“Your tattoo?” I breathe.

“Sorry, I got distracted,” he says. He smiles and his eyes sparkle. “My standard answer is it’s a fish because I’m a Pisces,” he says, his hands skimming over my ass. “Which is true.”

“You’re aPisces?” I say, pulling away from him in surprise.

“What? Is that bad?”

“Oh, no. It’s just... ” I trail off. There’s no way I’m gonna explain that Pisces is the astrological sign most compatible with Scorpio. “You just seem like such a classic Pisces, that’s all,” I say smoothly.

“Yeah? What are the characteristics of a classic Pisces?”

I think briefly. “Compassionate, adaptable, accepting, devoted, and imaginative.”

He puts his forehead on mine. “Wow, Irock.”

I laugh. “Don’t get too enamored with yourself. That was just thegoodPisces stuff. You’re also indecisive, self-pitying, lazy, and escapist.”

“Oh shit.” He grins. “Isuck.”

We both laugh.

He kisses me again.

“What about you, Miss Scorpio? What’s the rap on you?”

“I’m loyal, passionate, resourceful, and dynamic.”

He laughs and pinches my ass. “Dead-on accurate.” His hands migrate up my back. “Now what’s the shitty Scorpio stuff?”

I frown. “Well,supposedly, I’m obsessive, suspicious, manipulative, unyielding, and...jealous. But I think that’s all a load of crap.”

We both burst out laughing.

“Oh my God, that’s hilarious,” he says. “Maybe there’s something to this astrology stuff, after all.”

“It’s amazing how spot-on it can be.”

“So you’re pretty into it?” he asks.

I shrug. “I don’t manage my life based on astrology—I told you, I’m not one to think everything’s fated—I’m a firm believer in kicking ass—but I do think it’s crazy how accurate astrology can be regarding people’s personalities and compatibility.”

“When’s your birthday?” he asks.

“November sixteenth. When’s yours?”

“March ninth—and Jonas’, too, obviously.”

“Aw, that’s right. I forgot Jonas is a Pisces, too. Sarah’s also a Pisces.” I smile wistfully. “They’re Pisces-Pisces-sittin’-in-a-tree. That’s so sweet.”

“Two Pisces is good?”

“It’s amazing. Pisces-Pisces is one of the top love compatibilities on the Zodiac. When two Pisces join together, it’s a deep spiritual connection. They’re both water signs, so two Piscesmeldtogether completely, intertwining and becoming inseparable. They bring out the spiritual side in each other.”
