11:09 P.M
The Front door slams shut, Mom's gone off to find her ''one''(is that possible in a bar?)
I can't sleep so I waste my time in the living room watching old reruns and sketch in my notepad.
Lately it seems I've been having blasts from the past, I'm dreaming of that Alien boy who terrorized me in fourth grade.
I remember when I first met him Dib introduced me to him as the
"Freak from outer space".
So me being the idiot I am sits with him at lunch.
He told me to go away I smelled like feet I remember correcting him by saying that's just the way my mom smells.
He looked at me like I was mentally challenged.
"Anyway Dib says you're an Alien wanna tell me about your home planet" I had asked.
"No I don't now GO AWAY" he screamed.
I raised an eyebrow
"Your so mean dang I'm just trying to be friendly" I said a little bit of that Florida twang came out in my voice.
And I scurried back to dib and his scary sister.
The next time was on the playground.
Zim sat on the bench playing with one of his many gadgets.
"Hiya" I said sitting next to him.
"Ah smelly feet child what brings you to Zim" he said.
"Nothing just wanted to hang out" I said.
Zim looked abashed.
"Feet child there's nowhere to hang from" he said.
I had let out a hearty laugh.
"Your so weird" I said and got up from the bench.
And headed for Dib and his sister.
"S'later Zim"
After that it was small and smaller encounters.
Until we didn't really talk at all.
Later on Dib had became my little skool boyfriend.
We traded secrets, life stories and he was officially my first kiss.
BOOOM a loud noise sounded
it was so loud thank god my eardrums didn't bust.
I got up from the couch and slipped my black jacket on.
Oh Christ
My eyes widened tears welling up, Now I remember the last time I saw Zim he was undisguised he bared no hair on top of his head.
And those freaking eyes crimson, his snarl.
Needless to say cowardly little Lorrie wanted to cry to her Mommy but she wouldn't even be home.
Zim Swore when he came back he would destroy us all with the help of his native people the "Irkens".
And now his ship is in my backyard and all I want to scream is
"My Mom's gonna kill me!"
