Life as a 'Tallest' lifetime partner isn't all about the glamour; it's actually a pain in the ass. You have to deal with the unimaginable, and the typical. The unimaginable: A tallest actually choosing you. Out of all the Irkens on planet Irk, he chooses you. Which in this case means that you have to leave everything about your past behind. The typical: all the 'Tallest' fans being after my man! Thousands of females, surrounding him, the jealousy it causes both me and the fans. I receive death threats every day, I try to ignore them, but being told that you are wanted dead is, well, it takes a toll on your sanity.
My name is Gaz, and I am the lifetime partner of the beloved and charming 'Tallest Red' and what I had just witnessed today will make me wish I wasn't. I saw something that will emotionally scar me for life, something that made me feel like I could be replaced in a blink of an eye, and I know that this is true. When I was chosen, I changed myself to make sure that I was good enough for a 'Tallest', and I guess I wasn't. No matter how hard I tried to impress him, all I got out of him were a few kisses, and smiles, rarely a few laughs. Life for me was depressing.
It happened this morning, I had gotten up from bed and did my usual daily routine that I had done sense I began living here. I woke up in my room alone as always, dressed in my outfit that consisted of a red lacy dress that went down to my ankles, heels to make me a bit taller than what I really am, and a black cape that gives me that mysterious vibe that is all the rage on Irk now a days.
I looked at the mirror. My purple eyes were one of a kind; they had a bit of a black tint to them. My antennas were curled at the tips, my green skin glowing with health, but the scar that crossed my cheek was a reminder of the past that I will never forget. Every morning and every night I would run my three fingers over it, remembering the pain it had brought.
After that, I walked the long hallways that led me to the 'Tallest' rooms. As normal I went to visit my Red to his room and knocked on his door. He would normally answer me with a smile and a kiss, but today was different. Today he didn't answer me, and me, being as foolish as I am, I opened the door. What I saw shocked me to the core. He was passed out in bed with another female Irken in his arms. I could feel my squidly-spooch shattering into a million pieces, going cold. I felt like vomiting last nights snacks all over the floor, but then decided against it.
'What am I going to do now?' I thought to myself as I silently shut the door. It was quite obvious that I wasn't needed here. 'I should run away… I know when I'm not wanted, I could take a hint.' The old Invader in me told me. The past that I had left behind was important to me; I had been an invader, and a good one at that. I was the best ever, until 'Tallest Red' took an interest in me.
'I know exactly what I'm going to do now.' I thought to myself, with a cold grin spreading across my face.
