Hello, Reality
An Invader Zim (ZADR) FanFiction
It had been a starry night. The sky was a deep navy blue, with a hint of pink circling his house. What was left of the sea breeze was slowly pushing on the pedals of a few flowers in a nearby garden. A few laser beams could be seen from across the street, inside the windows.
I stood there, with my back straight and the breeze gently rubbing my exposed stomach. My maroon burlap bag was whipping softly to the rolling of the wind. I shivered as my piercings, on my face and bellybutton, made my skin go numb.
I walked slowly from my motorcycle. I looped the keys onto my chain and looked at the house I was absolutely itching to get inside. He had invited me over, and now I was shivering. No, not from the wind, but from the ache in my heart and the twist in my stomach. The wind was only making it worse, and the only thing warm on my entire body was the skin behind my hair and my toes, tucked safely inside my steel-toes boots. Adding to the yet horrible pain, my piercings hit my stomach with each walk, and rubbed my skin raw and rawer with each stride.
I reached his house. Before ringing the gothic-looking doorbell, I looked behind myself, as if I could see my own footsteps, and maybe run back to my motorcycle and get away before he noticed me. But no, the motorcycle, the houses, and even the garden was all left behind, hidden by the blanket of darkness. You could only see the faint imprint of skylights outlining the futuristic houses in the distance.
I closed my eyes as I reached in for the doorbell. The sudden sting of my glasses' cold metal sliding down my face forced them to remain shut. Before I could ring the doorbell though, I heard metal-heeled footsteps, and a green figure, wearing its usual pink and black jumper, opened the door.
"Why hello there Dib," It said.
[A/N: hehe, clever aren't I? I made you guys THINK. 8D]
