dont like, dont read.
~Apov, dibI woke up to the sounds of my yelling sister, Gaz, but not the sound of her scratching my door to bits, oh no. She had done that at least a week ago.
"Dib get your butt out of bed and turn off that alarm clock before i light you on fire with a magnifying glass and the sun" she screatched, her tiny body shaking in fury of her words, making the whole house rumble.
I groaned, shooing her away with a lazy hand and sighing heavily. Ug, school. Cold air attacked my body as i ditch the blanket and sat up right, my feet grazing the floor as i head onto the blind search for my glasses. I finally lose my dream like state and open my eyes to the cruel reality that we call morning. The darkness tries to convince me that there is no sun out, for the blankets hide the sun from coming through my window. But i am not fooled, the merciless birds have grabbed my attention.
Blue shadows of my room tell me where and where not i should step. I find my way to the closet, pulling on the closest pants i can find, they're my black, super tight skinny jeans. I slip on a dark blue shirt with an emoticon on the front. I finish off with black converse, snatch up my trusty headphones and music device before i make way to the bathroom.
Dodging my sister completely, the first good sign this morning. I stare at the mirror in utter distaste, that relentless spike, that damn relentless spike. Ever since elementary school I've dealt with that spike. taming down the rest of my onyx hair, knowing its useless to try and convince that thing to listen, i brush my teeth hastely, and head down stairs.
The next ten minutes is really boring, i can sum it up in three sentences. I grabbed some toast and ate it. My sister yelled and i ignored it. I left after grabbing my infamous trench coat and started towards Zim's house.Yes , i know what you're thinking, you're going to zim's house? without a plan? ... But seriously, we're in highschool now, alot has changed between us. Our earthly food had made him grow, into a tall lanky muscular boy, he made his hair shaggy like a skater boy. But he himself had changed also. He was not longer the same narsacictic alien you all know.
You see, the tallest literally cam to earth them selves to exile him, bonding him to the planet. It broke him. He almost killed himself. That's when we stopped being enemies. I told him to live for me. And now, our enemy relation ship had made a flip flop. We were friends, i think.
There were things that stirred inside me when I was with him, and three years ago, when Gaz and I got emancipated, he told me to live for him too. That brought Zim and I closer, we battled middle skool and now we were going to survive hi skool together.
i reached Zims house, the gnomes not bothering to attack me, they had seemed to grow minds of there own, he hadn't reset them but they knew i wasn't against Zim any more. They rolled their eyes at me.
I opened the old door to his house, still it had the male sign on it. I stepped inside the house comfortably. This felt like a home to me. I sighed in comfort, closing the door silently behind me, GIR was asleep on the couch.
"Zim, are you ready to go" i called thru the house. my voice echoed, and was answered with silence.
"Zim we have skool, don't make me come and get you" I called hoping i would really have to go get him... wait, why did i want to see him so badly?
I banished the thought. as Zim peeked around the corner of the room. his crimson eyes droopy with sleep antenii hung low. He leaned in the door frame for support. he looked so damn cute
wait... cute?!
I smiled at him happy to see his unique alien face, instead of his disguise.
"Stupid Dib-thing. There's no school today" he grumbled in his small voice. My heart sank, did this mean i had to go home? That I wouldn't spend time with Zim today? my face fell in hurt, zim analyzed my reaction, he read me better than a picture book. "come Dib- head." he slunk back away from my view.
I followed him down to his layer, lab type thing. He was clad in only a red blanket wrapped on his waist, held up by his hand, i was curious to see if that was all he was wearing. Did Zim sleep naked?
why was i being like this ? soooo wieeerrrrd.
We were acting really close lately, did he like me? Did i like him? i found myself oggling his tight round ass and slim frame, licking my lips at the sight of his minty green exposed skin. right then hormones kicked in.
i slipped my leather trench off, catching up to his slow drowsy stride in seconds, wrapping my long arms around his waist pressing him to me, his back against my chest. his body tensed in suprise, and i burried my face in the crook of his neck. he smelled like sweet vanilla ice cream. mmm. for a second he stood frozen, i thought he was going to push me away, but then he cocked his head and turned it towards mine, putting his face in my hair, he nuzzled it and he moaned softly.
"z-zim?" i studdered, wondering if i was just imagining that he was snuggling me back.
"this is what... affection is right?" he asked, sounding very worried and confused.
"y-yes, it is zim, h-" i was literally at loss for words. i was puzzled. was i dreaming? god i hoped not, but why did i want it to be real? i loved zim didnt i? yeah, i do.
his arm reached up and his delacate three fingered hand tangled itself in my hair, getting lost in pet me and it felt good, it played with my lockes twirling.
"i think i like this thing," he laughed nervously. a blush spread across my cheeks. my heart loud as an indians drum. beating like a strobe light. "this is, okay, right dib-thing"?
"y-yes zim, this is okay with me" my innards were filled with glee, my heart fluttering.
this in fact was more than okay with me. i smothered my face into his shoulder deeper, feeling as if i were going to explode with happiness.
zim pushedm e away, making me feel alone and abbandoned like a dog. i gave him the puppy dog eyes.
"dib-brain, can i ask you something" he turned to face me, but his crimson orbs were locked on the ground before him.
"yes, yes, zim, anything"
"i've been feeling something weird deep down inside of me and im wondering based on the research ive done and the movies ive watched, i must ask you a very important thing, are we feeling, the love, emotion"? his cheeks turned a briliant shade of lavender.
at that moment. i felt like i had been hit with a train.
"well, in order for me to know what you are feeling i must ask you questions too..."
"Then come, Dib-squish, show me this love thing, teach it to me, now" he demanded as his over dramatic zim like self. he grabbed my hand and lead me to his bed chambers. shoving me off to the side, still very much so blushing, and heading to a room, after muttering "dont move" in my general direction.
A moment later he emerged from were he had left, now wearing a pair of black baggy shorts and a plain white tshirt.
What happened next, was where it really got interesting. hahaha end of chapter one... ill call this story: the definition of affection
look out for chapter 2
