Let Me Hold You

Chapter one

Okay so this is my first Iz story and I can say that the characters are mostly gonna be ooc. I'll try to get as close as I can to their personality, but hey they've grown up and most of the time people change, so yeah. So here's the first chapter.

and of course I don't own Invader Zim :( none of us do, but one. and he's off somewhere doing whatever.


Today was the day that my dad and I were moving in with my uncle and my two favorite cousins. Of course they were my only cousins I have, but that's what makes them so special, I guess. When we were younger we hung put everyday. That was until we moved because my dad had gotten a job offer in another state. I was seven, Dib was eight, and Gaz was five. we were as close as a pod of peas. Yeah, I know. That's lame.

But I was so bummed when we moved for about two years. I'd cry everyday, act up, yell at people for no reason. But it did get better. I always knew that someday we would all be together again. Sure it's taken 10 years and I was now 17, but it was worth the wait.

We had around three more hours of driving and I could hardly stay still. I kept moving my legs and shifting in my seat. Let's face it, it's hard to stay still when you're this excited.

"Bianca, honey. Just go to sleep and we'll be there faster than you know it," said my dad. I rolled my eyes.

"Speak for yourself dad. I can't. I'm too awake." He gave me that "just do it" loo."

"Okay fine! Dang." I let my seat back and closed my eyes. It took me a few minutes, but I finally drifted off to sleep


"Hey!" I jumped up as I heard THAT in my ear. I bumped my head on the roof of the car and scowled.

"God, Gaz. What's your problem?" My eyes went wide. "GaaaaaaaZ!" I tackled her to the ground. "Oh my god, you look so different, but I know it's you. Awww look, you still have your baby face. How cute! I missed you!" She let out a low growl.

"I...missed...you too, but get off OF ME!"

"Girl, please. If I wanna be on top of you then I'll be on top of you."

"That sounded so wrong."

"Only because you have a dirty mind, Gazy Gaz." She let out a short chuckle.

"No, just a very, very dark mind."

"Hey, don't I get some kind of love," said a voice from behind. I turned around to see the only nerdy boy I've known my entire life.

"Dib," I yelled." I quickly hopped off of Gaz and gave him the biggest bear hug I could muster.

"I..missed..you..too...but...can't...breath...help."

"Oh sorry. I just missed you all so much." I could feel tears in the corner of my eyes.

"Please don't cry," said Gaz. I hate crying."

"Only because you use to cry all the time," I said rolling my eyes.

"No I didn't."

"Yeah you did Gaz," said Dib agreeing with me.

"Whatever," she said in a low voice.

"Gosh you guys. This is like the coolest thing ever," I said throwing my hands up in the air and laughing.

"I can already tell you're gonna make trouble," said Dib walking away to help my dad get our stuff in the house.

"Don't worry, Gaz. I've got a list on how to annoy Dib." Gaz gave an evil smile.

"Just like old times," she said. We both walked in the house laughing our heads off. I've never been so happy in my life. My dream finally came true and I was whole again.

"Come on, we're gonna share a room until we get yours fixed up." I grabbed a couple of my suitcases and Gaz got one of my boxes and we walked up to her room.

"Wow," I said. "It still looks the same. Only you have a bigger and better bed." Her room has always been purple everything. Purple bed sheets, purple nightstand, purple lamp, purple dresser, purple blinds. Just purple, purple, purple. I use to call her the purple queen. "I thought you would of gotten tired of purple.

"Never. Purple is everything. Well, except for gameslave and pizza. Oh and poop soda."

"Now that sound's nasty." I put my stuff down and hopped up on the bed. "Oooh. It's nice and soft too. And of course purple." She smiled.

"Yep." There was an akward silence. I kinda figured that it was bound to happen. We haven't seen each other in forever and we had no where to begin.

"I'll be back," my dad yelled. "I'm gonna go see my bro bro." I rolled my eyes.

"Dad's always trying to be some kind of gangster," I said rolling my eyes. "Okay, dad."

"At least you get to see your dad more often." Gaz looked at the ground. Her dad, my uncle, was always so into his work. Since, science is everything in his own little world. It makes me sick. but gotta love him.

"So.." I was cut off by Dib yelling downstairs.

"Not again," Gaz said clenching her fist. She walked out of the room and I followed her down the stairs into the livingroom.

"Noooo! Not get outa my house," dib yelled.

"But I need it. Now gimmie, gimmie you worm baby," said an unknown voice. Who is that.

"Will you two shut up," Gaz yelled. "Why don't both of you get out if your gonna yell."

"Quick Gaz run. The alien is in the house." She growled clenching her fists again.

"Alien," I asked. Dib looked at me funny.

"Bianca hurry. It's him. he's the alien, run," he said pointing to the guy next to him. My mind went blank. Why does this kid have green skin? And where the hell are his ears and nose. What is wrong with this boy.

"Dib, I think you've gone crazy. Not that you already wasn't."

"No, not crazy. It's true, ZIM IS AN ALIEN! just look at his green skin."

"It's a skin condition," said the little green boy. Well I can't say little since he looked like he was six feet tall. He was just as tall as Dib, with big blue eyes, and a weird looking outfit. Who wears something like that? but he was kinda cute, in a weird way.

"Ew, is it contagious," I asked. "Cause if it is you need to get out now."

"Don't believe his lies," Dib yelled. The whole time Gaz just had her eyes squinted closed and was shaking.

"Okay, I officially moved into the crazy house," I said walking away. I was hungry and wanted some pizza. "where's the phone?" I could still hear Dib and green dude yelling at each other. "Yo, the phone! where is it?"

"We don't have it no more," said Dib.

"Why?"

"Gaz broke it."

"Gaz," I whinnied. Yes I did do that.

"what? I was mad, okay."

"But the phone. I'm hungry. I want some pizza, pizza, pizza! Pizza, pizza,pizza, pizz..."

"Ahhhhh thats it. shut up," Gaz yelled. Dib and his little friend stopped yelling at each other and I stopped saying pizza. "I can't take it anymore." She ran out the door. I an after her, but she was already gone.

"Damn, she fast. Gezz Dib why'd you have to make her mad."

"It wasn't just me. you were yelling pizza. "

"shut up," I said pushing him. "And you," get out.

"what? nobody tells the almighty Zim what to do."

"I just did green boy. now GET OUT," I said pushing him out the door and closed it. I opened it again. "And have a nice night."

"Good work Bianca," said Dib dusting himself off.

"Dib, you seriously have some issues to work out."

"Yeah, yeah I know."

"Now where did Gaz go?"

"Bloaty's. It's where she always goes when she's mad."

"What? and she went without me. Aw man. I'm hungry."

"I would take you, but I have to uh go out for a little bit."

"Why, so you can yell at your little friend some more?"

"No!" I gave him that yeah right look.

"Sure, sure. See you later then." I walked back to the kitchen and looked in the freezer. "ooh. Frozen pizza." I grabbed it and put it in the oven. I sighed. This was gonna be a one long school year. Speaking of school, it was tomorrow. Great. Why did dad have to wait till freaking Sunday to drive over here. DANG! At least it was my senior year, so I had nothing to worry about, but grades.

Hmmm. What was the kids name again? Ah, yes. Zim. Never heard of that before. I wonder if it's french. Or maybe it's Spanish. Or maybe alien. Wait no, there's no such thing as aliens. But he did have green skin. But he said it was a skin condition. This is hard. There's only one thing to do, and that was to get evidence that Zim was an alien. Most likely he's in school, so I'll start tomorrow. I hope this wont be too hard.


okay so not the best ending in the world, but I had to stop somewhere and I need sleep. and yes I know the characters might be ooc. so don't send me any nasty reviews about them being ooc. It's just a story people. but I like criticism, it makes you a better writer... most of the time so please read and review.

ta-ta for now
