Last Kiss
Ok, be nice, this is my first songfic. I don't own the song, Last Kiss, by Pearl Jam, nor do I own Invader Zim.
Oh, where oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.
"Happy anniversary, Dib." Zim said over the phone. "Has it really been five years for you two? Seems like just yesterday we were two chickless seventh graders!"
"Lucky she moved in. It had to be a sign, after all, Tara came the day after we set aside our differences." I replied.
"Yah, well, it was obvious you were obsessed the second you saw her, Dib-monkey." Zim retorted.
"As I recall, you had it pretty bad for Gaz around then." Ha! Got 'im by the danglies there!
"Well, she finally took pity on me last year. Hey, if we get married, you and I'll be brothers!"
"Oh, great,an alienon the family tree! And people say we're weird already!"
"Oh, shut your meat hole, earth-stink! Welaughed, Zim continued,"So, have you got something special planned for the big night?"
"Yeah. I'm taking her out to a nice place for dinner—dad let me borrow his car!—and tonight, I'm gonna propose! Gotta go! She's here!"
"Good luck." Zim said to the dial tone before hanging up.
We were out on a date in my daddy's car
We hadn't driven very far
"Why does your Dad have a Porsche anyway, Dib? I've never seen him use it!" Tara asked, blue eyes twinkling.
"Mid-life crisis!" I laughed. "You know, Tara, you look gorgeous."
"Thanks, Spike."
I love her so much…
There in the road, up straight ahead
A car was stalled, the engine was dead
I couldn't stop, so I swerved to the right
Oh God! A big SUV was in the middle of the road! I swerved. "Hang on, Tara!"
Why won't the car stop? My glasses!
I'll never forget the sound that night
The screamin' tires, the bustin' glass
The painful scream that I heard last.
"Diiiiiibbbb!"
Everything went black.
Oh, where oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.
When I woke up, the rain was pourin' down
There were people standing all around
Something warm rollin' through my eyes
But somehow I found my baby that night
Someone handed me my glasses. They were cracked, but I could still see somewhat. It hurt to move, but I had to find Tara.
Oh, so much blood!
I finally found her, she looked so horrible! She was covered with blood…
She struggled to focus her eyes on me.
"D..Dib?" her voice was so weak; a whisper, really.
I fell to my knees beside her.
I lifted her head, she looked at me and said
"Hold me darling just a little while."
I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss
I found the love that I knew I would miss
But now she's gone, even though I hold her tight
I lost my love, my life that night.
"I love you, Dib." She whispered.
"Don't leave me!" I sobbed. "I need you! I love you!"
Without her, nothing meant anything! Tara never said anything mean, and she always believed me. She held me when the world called me crazy, she believed in me. I might not have been the most popular kid at skool, but with her, I was the luckiest.
She smiled at me one last time, and when she breathed her last, a tear fell from her vacant eyes. No bright, gentle spirit lived there anymore. No, they were empty, like a house that would never again be a home. My vision blurred with tears that I could no sooner restrain than I could reach up and move the moon.
I heard Zim fighting his way through the crowd, yelling that his friends were in there. But I didn't care.
Oh, where oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.
Oooh ooooh
I closed her eyes gently with my fingertips, entertaining the thought, for a moment, that she simply slept.
I wasn't fooled.
She's gone.
My life means nothing.
I can't go on like this.
I'm tired of fighting the world.
I'm tired of fighting FOR the world.
Ok, that's it, but I might make a sequel, if you want it. Please review.
