I woke up in a sweat from my dream. It was the same every night. The army of my planet would come after me. They would kill the only few things I care about in my life then slowly kill me. And it hurt. Not physically but emotionally. I sighed and looked at my clock. 7:30. I then looked over to see Gir doing something stupid n the kitchen like always. That's when it clicked. "7:30?! Ah crap!" I Hissed, I was so late! I quickly changed and ran to school. I waited till first period was over. The last thing I wanted was to get in trouble with that old hag I call a teacher. True I would be in trouble for not being in first period but she would give me detention for interrupting he class and eight hours a day with her is bad enough I do not need two more thank you. I put in the earphones connected to a small music player I... borrowed from a fellow classmate's desk. I may not have ears but we have little holes under our antennas that are the same size as a human ear hole. The music he had sucked. It was just loud noises and people screaming. I will never understand humans but at least it kept me from thinking. I have learned that the more I think about something the more my mind is filled with fear. It is a horrible feeling that I wish to never experience again. Yet sometimes it just happens. I begin to think about something that happened or I start to think about what may happen or my future and then I get a rush of emotions. Fear. Sadness. Pain. Sorrow. Confusion. Worry. Heartache. It just all hurts. And I hate it. But the music that I turn up all the way makes my ears and head numb. It's so loud I can't even hear myself think. Best thing ever created. I sat down in the hall with my back to the wall and my eyes closed. I then felt a presence shadowed over me. I opened an eye to see the only person I have feelings for. What those feelings are I have yet to find out but unlike everyone else in the world I do not feel numbing hatred for him. His lips started moving. He was talking. I took out an ear phone.
"What?" I asked,
"I said that your gonna go deaf if you listen to it so loud." He said looking down at me with his arms crossed. The pose he made makes me want to smile. But of course I don't. Showing any emotion other then hatred to these humans I a bad idea.
"So?" I asked him with a blank face.
"Whatever." He rolled his eyes.
"Did class already end?" I asked seeing that we were the only ones in the hallway.
"Na but I got sent out here for speaking out of turn or whatever." Dib said as he sat down beside me. "So where did you get that cause I highly doubt you had enough money for that."
"Leon's desk."
"You stole that from Leon?"
"No! I... borrowed it!" He gave out a light chuckle. It was a nice sound. I turned down the music with a slight smile hoping to hear more of it. The two of us still fight a lot but we do have normal conversations once in a while. It was nice. "Do you want to listen to it with me?" I asked, we also did that sometimes. I could tell when he was in a bad mood and he could tell the same thing about me so we would jest sit and listen to music though I normally used my pack. I was able to install music into the small computer that is hooked into me. It's how my brainwaves are transferred to my body. Oddly enough I found out that if I play the music I am the only one that can hear it but if someone touches me they two can hear it. It was odd and I didn't know how to explain it but it was cool. But I can't tune out my thoughts. That's why I took the kids music player.
"Yeah but not Leon's music. I don't think I would like that very much." He smirked, it was then my turn to roll my eyes. I tuned off the player and put it into my pocket. Then I tuned on the music in my pack. Just like the arms I can control it with my mind. Dib took my hand and smiled. He liked that song best. A Thousand Years. It was his favorite. He once told me that he loved it because it reminded him of his mom.
"She loved to sing. She said that she always wanted to be a singer but science called her first. She sounded like an angel when she sang. And whenever I was sad or came home after being picked on at school she would sing one of two songs. This one and... oh what was it called... Safe and Sound! That's it!" He smiled recalling the memories of his mother. "Hey Zim, do you have a mom back on your planet?"
"No we don't have moms or dads. I honestly don't know anything about our reproductive system..." He said in reply.
"Odd" Was Dib's only reply.
There was so much about this boy that oddly enough interested me. It was slightly annoying. We sat there for a good 30 minutes before the bell rang. Dib let go of my hand and without another word got his bag and left. I to got up and left. I went off to my next class. Gym. I actually didn't hate it. It was a lot like training back at my planet. Just not with all the guns and robots. It was fun and the only class I had a passing grade in. I gave Dib one more look before I went to my class.
Funny enough gym is my worst class. :D I am like the only guy at my school that hates gym and sports. But yeah... HEY LOOK THIS CHAPTER WAS 1006 WORDS! YES! I ROCK! *happily listens to vocaloid and Len sing about going crazy and killing tons of peeps. and pushes Kaito in front of a bus* YES DIE oh I'm sorry
