The alarm for school started blaring at it's newly adjusted, earlier time. Dib groaned and smacked it off. He didn't bother getting up. There was no school that day. Some holiday he didn't even know the name to was going on and it they'd been told to stay home. Why he hadn't turned off the blasted alarm was beyond him. So, he just curled up under the mountain of purplish sheets that bore the seal of his boyfriend's home country and felt around for said boyfriend. Today was a special day and he wanted to have an early morning snuggle before something happened that made them have to get up and put out a fire or stop the end of the world coming before his alien could blow the planet to bits and get the bragging rights.
Zim wasn't in bed with him.
" What the hell?" Dib exclaimed, sitting up and pushing off the blankets. Aside from him, the bed was completely devoid of life. Actually, the entire bedroom was empty save for him, " Where'd he go?"
Figuring that searching was a far better idea then just sitting in bed waiting for the moment when his lover would pop back in, Dib climbed out and pulled on some clothes. Then he ditched the room and headed up to the kitchen above. The lights were all off, so he quickly realized no one had been up there since the night before. That, or Gir had destroyed the power source again and the upstairs was cast in darkness. However, the lack of glowing, angry eyes told him that whatever the reason for the darkness, the person he was looking for wasn't up there.
He went downstairs to the lab instead. All the computers were glowing and things were buzzing and someone was clicking on controls. Smiling, he strolled over to the main computer and leaned against the side of the chair there.
Zim was typing away, his hands moving rapidly across the strange Irken controls, words flying across the screens at insane rates. His alien eyes followed each word and he continued to move his fingers over the keys. Dib was impressed, as always, when he saw how professionally his lover could work when he put his mind to it.
" Good morning. And happy six months," the human interrupted, leaning down and planting a kiss on his boyfriend's cheek. Zim nodded, his antennae twitching, " How's the baby this morning?"
" Fine," was all he got as a response as Zim's hands flew across the controls. Dib frowned a little bit, trying to read what he was doing, but it moved too fast. When he asked, Zim grinned a little, " I'm checking the status on the Massive and the other Invaders to see if I can slow them down. I'm also running a diagnostic over the smeet and myself. The computer is also locating Gir, who seems to have run off to Mexico again,"
" You're giving yourself an ultrasound?"
" A what?"
" An ultrasound. It's a human technique of checking on unborn babies," Dib explained, watching as those eyes briefly glanced in his direction. Zim nodded just slightly, " Is everything okay?"
" So far so good. Do you want something, Dib?"
" It's our day to celebrate, Zim. I... wanted to spend some time together. Just the two of us," Dib was trying not to sound completely pathetic, but he couldn't really help it.
Ever since he'd put limitations on what Zim could and couldn't do while pregnant, the alien had been up to no good by running checks and scans on every living thing Irken and human alike. He'd been researching and gathering data like never before, logging away more information then the Massive had in their entire storage system in a day's work. All this work seemed to keep the alien happy and content with him no longer being able to destroy the humans, but it was driving Dib insane. He thought Zim was working himself to death between the searching and school and pregnancy. He'd always known that besides being insane, paranoid, and a total germaphob, his boyfriend was a workaholic. However, he hadn't thought it'd be this bad.
" Hold that thought, Love Slave," the older boy said, his typing increasing to a speed Dib hadn't even thought possible. In a matter of moments, all the screens began to close and things pinged off, " Okay then. We shall celebrate now,"
" Wait... you're already done?"
" Well, I didn't get up so early for no reason, stupid human," was the haughty remark as Zim got to his feet and flashed that ever smug smile of his. Dib was in awe at his consideration for a second, then he just beamed and gently gave his lover a hug.
" You're wonderful,"
" Yes, yes. Tell me something I don't know,"
" Don't. You're gonna ruin the moment," Dib informed him in a whisper, wrapping his arms around his waist and resting his hands on Zim's curved stomach. Over the past month it'd grown quite a bit. Now there was no questioning that the alien was excepting. As big as he was, however, they both knew he was going to get bigger, even if they never really talked about the subject. Still, none of that mattered much to the human at the moment. As he had for the last month, he simply liked to rest his hands on the curve when they hugged and forget about Zim's orders and the pregnancy and Gir and the Massive and the whole saving Earth thing.
They stayed like that for a moment in time. Dib held his lover close and Zim's eyes shut so he could wrap himself in the warmth of the embrace. Everything in the house was quiet and there was no work to be done and no school to attend. No questions to answer, no people to talk to, no transmissions coming through, no professors asking for the Membrane boy. That sort of peace was something rare for the two and they savored it.
Then, slowly, Dib moved one hand from his boyfriend's chin and used it to push Zim's chin up. They gently kissed. It was a quick, chaste kiss, but it meant the world to them in that quiet peace they hadn't felt since the evening their child was conceived.
That was it. As soon as they'd shared their innocent kiss that reflected the existence they somewhat wanted, they were engaged in a wet, hot, passionate kiss that revealed the chaotic, but emotionally fulfilling lives they really led, what with trying to save and destroy the Earth simultaneously. Zim's legs encircled Dib's slender waist and Dib's hands cupped his ass to support him as they stumbled backwards to the elevator that would take them to their bedroom. Their tongues slipped effortlessly over one another's, Zim's three fingered hands twisting up Dib's blue shirt and tearing the fabric a little.
They never made it to the bedroom. Dib walked into some computer or something similar to it and decided they'd gone as far as they were going. They fell to the floor, lips still locked and breathing the other in as deep as they were kissing. Zim's claws tore the cloth shirt on his lover's back and he ripped it off in frustration. Once it was off, he dug those claws into the scarred flesh of his human and caused fresh blood to leak out in thin lines. Dib winced at the pain and gasped into the kiss.
The alien straddled him fully, moving his lips to Dib's neck and biting down. The younger boy moaned and shuddered, his hands moving to the front of his boyfriend's pants. He undid them and began to help Zim wriggle out of them as the older boy unfastened Dib's pants at the same time. They were out of their jeans in the same moment and breathing deeply as Zim licked his fingers until they were slick. Dib let out the first scream of the morning when the fingers were pushed inside him to make him 'wet'. Teasingly, his boyfriend repeated the process several times.
" JUST TAKE ME, DAMMIT!!!" Dib shouted, grabbing hold of Zim's legs as tightly as humanly possible. Zim gave him a look that told him to stop giving commands as he licked his lips in an almost hungry way.
Zim then shoved himself inside Dib, causing both of them to cry out in the joyous pain that erupted in heat all over them. Dib lifted his body off the floor the best he could to make this easier on his boyfriend, meeting him halfway. The alien thrust into his lover and back out, using one hand to dig claws into the leg of his spouse and the other to steady his curved belly during the intercourse. Dib let out wail after wail, smiling at the agony that was tearing through his body. This was the best pain he'd ever felt in his life. The absolute best.
The motion grew faster as they found the angle needed to allow for ultimate pain for both of them. Dib's screams blended into one long moan and made Zim feel heat rising all over his body and build behind his erect cock. He couldn't help but relish the sounds of his boyfriend crying out for more and mercy in the very same breath. It was almost too much pleasure for one Irken to handle.
Dib's nails scratched across the wired floor as his head was thrown back in a loud shriek. Somewhere deep inside him, he felt one of 'his spots' being struck. Stars filled his already double vision. Everything was numb save for the beautiful pain he felt as he became one body and one soul with his beloved once more. His chest rose rapidly, his nails cutting along the ground, his head crashed back, his glasses came off. The world blurred, but he could still hear Zim moaning out in pleasure over his screaming and he could still feel his lover inside his tight ass. That was all that mattered in that moment as he was struck in that sensitive area once more.
Blood began to rush down Dib's leg as Zim adjusted the position and moved his legs back farther. Flesh tore and the screaming heightened. Heat overwhelmed the alien and he let out a gasp of his own, his head swimming. Knowing it wasn't too much longer, he started to push and pull himself in and out rougher, faster, to bring his lover at the same time he went. He hit the spot he knew was inside the human with each thrust, bringing about a whole other level of shrieking from the boy beneath him.
Both let out howls as they came when the thrusting reached its peak. They rode their orgasms down together, claws and nails digging into flesh and floor. When it was over, they were laying together in sweat, blood, and sticky cum, and smiling as they held the other tight. Zim pulled himself out of his boyfriend and Dib took him into his arms, kissing him on the base of the neck.
Their panting filled the air as the only sound in the suddenly quiet hallway of the lab. Dib pushed the line of their bodies together, resting his head in the nook of Zim's neck. The older boy snuggled in the pleasant warmth emitting from his boyfriend's body, allowing himself to be consumed in hugs and little kisses. He didn't even say anything when one of the human's hands drifted down and rested on his curved stomach, as if checking to make sure their antics hadn't disrupted the smeet. Actually, the fact that Dib cared that much made Zim smile to himself and just kiss the arm wrapped around him, holding him securely against his lover.
" I love you, Zim," Dib whispered, twisting his fingers up in the blue T-shirt still on his boyfriend.
" I love you too, Dib," Zim answered, closing his eyes.
" Thanks for the present. I really didn't expect it," the joke went unanswered. When Dib looked down, he saw that Zim's eyes were closed, " Are you asleep?"
" No,"
" Then wh-"
" Silence, human," he ordered in a stern voice. Dib grew quiet and allowed his beloved to do whatever it was he was doing.
What he was doing was merely enjoying the feeling of being held by someone who truly loved him. Zim had never felt so content in all his life, not even when destroying things that bothered him. The idea of having an undying love sort of relationship had seemed so farfetched when he'd announced that he was looking for a boyfriend to settle down with. He'd expected Dib to apply for the job and that they'd have a love-hate-love type of relationship until he completed his mission and got rid of Earth. He'd figured that was where their relationship would end and he'd just head back to Irk for a new mission from his Tallest. He hadn't expected what he'd gotten.
But there he was. The great, almighty Irken Invader Zim was five months pregnant and being held by the father of his smeet, Dib Membrane. His mission was on hiatus and he hadn't heard from the Tallest in a few weeks. Gir was learning to control himself around the two and both the girls Gaz and Tak were supportive of his pregnancy. He'd been given maternity leave by both his rulers and Ms. Bitters and the class had been taken care of. All that was left, then, was what he had at that moment.
Sheer, utter love for his spouse and his smeet. The feeling was conquering the Invader's senses and making him feel like he was floating on a cloud somewhere in heaven or whatever. He was lighter then air, perfectly content and happy there on that cold floor in the arms of his beloved. Nothing had ever felt so right. Invader or not, Irken Elite or not, he knew right then and there what it was he wanted and what he was meant to be.
Zim was a mother. And he loved it. Whether or not he told Dib, he knew it and his smeet knew it. He was a mother. And not even the Massive could take that feeling away from him, could get him to feel any different. Invader Zim was a mother. He was. He was. He was. Nothing could ever change that. Not even the fact that his and Dib's mere existences were opposites and placing them against one another come battle. Not even that he was an Invader and he wasn't supposed to raise children. Not even that there was a chance this happy feeling he had in his heart was only fleeting because of his and Dib's existences. Zim was a mother.
" Zim... why're you crying? Is something wrong?" Dib questioned, when he saw tears on the face of his boyfriend. Zim shook his head, refusing to answer as he smiled through the tears, " Are you okay?"
" I love you, Dib," was what Zim said, squeezing the arm wrapped around his chest. He didn't say anything else that was on his mind. He just repeated that over and over and over in Irken, knowing that his boyfriend couldn't understand a word he was saying.
" I... I love you too, Zim," Dib whispered back, kissing Zim gently on the cheek as his lover spoke in his native tongue, seemingly to himself, " Even if you're cussing me out, I still love you,"
" Stupid human," was the last piece of English Dib got out of the alien before they grew quiet again. The tears were gone and Zim was just hugging his arm, smiling to himself and not saying anything. Dib, knowing how insane his boy could be, just hugged him back and let him do and say and think whatever he pleased without worry that it was something bad. If it were, he knew, as he'd known for years, Zim would be yelling at him in English, not whispering in Irken.
They stayed on the floor for the longest time. Dib drifted off into a slumber filled with Irken insanity and lots of cupcakes from Mexico. Zim, on the other hand, stayed awake to enjoy the feel of being a mother for a little while longer, if only because he knew when Dib came to, they'd have to get dressed and go about life as though these tender moments didn't happen. Until then, he'd just pretend their lives weren't nearly as bizarre as they were. In those moments, Dib wasn't the savior of the human race and he wasn't the elite Irken Invader bent on destroying the Earth. They were just the tired father and mother of an unborn smeet in an Irken lab somewhere on a foreign planet, laying together, warm and happy and content with life.
A smile crossed Zim's face at the image. Maybe one day he could make that vision a reality. Of course, that would involve blowing the Earth to bits and finishing his mission and thus ending his lover's. Not that an Invader of Zim's classifications couldn't make that possible.
The smile changed to something wicked as Zim's eyes narrowed. Mother or not, he could still be a devious little thing, he thought, rubbing the sides of his growing belly.
