Okay, this might be my last update until next week or so due to computer changing and all that stupid stuff, so I'll try to make it a good one :D
Floating…
All around there was grass and clouds, it was beautiful, and all the while, he felt like he was floating.
He felt very strange because he knew he wasn't able to fly, not even float, he wasn't capable of something like that.
It was an odd feeling too, almost… happy. Like he was floating on a cloud of happiness.
But he wasn't alone, when his vision cleared up, he could see someone standing on what looked like a little floating island of sorts.
It was complete with a beautiful willow tree and it seemed to be glowing like the sun was shining on glass, but there was no sun to be found.
The person he saw looked up, her purple hair shone in the light and slightly swayed about her head.
He recognised her but just could put her finger on who she was, for she didn't look like anyone he knew.
Her hair was long, straight down to the middle of her back with bangs pulled to the sides to keep them out of her pale face.
She wore a long black dress that seemed to drag out behind her, and had a skull in the middle.
Her eyes were the best part.
Her eyes were a yellow-ish brown colour, like a topaz gem and he was completely mesmerized when she looked at him.
"Zim…" He came out of his trance and realized that he was on the island with her.
"Zim…" She repeated and he stood up and looked deep into her eyes.
He knew her; he recognised the voice who spoke to him.
It was a voice that felt like heaven and hell, pain and pleasure.
He couldn't get enough of her…"Gaz?"
She looked back at him, her face soft for once in the time he'd known her; he looked at her eyes, which they too, were soft yet, full of a mixture of emotions.
"Yes Zim…What is wrong?" He had looked away from her, to his and her surprise.
He could feel the sting of tears rolling down his green skin and knew he was crying.
Then, he felt a hand on his cheek, wiping the tears away from his face and he looked back at the girl standing before him.
She smiled.
Her smile made his heart flutter and he had to smile back.
"Zim…I have to tell you something"
He looked at her with a confused look, when she suddenly wrapped her thin arms around his neck and brought her mouth to his antennae.
He wrapped his arms around her waist and felt her warm breath against his antenna which made him shiver.
"Zim…..I…." He closed his eyes, waiting for what he was sure to come.
"I….WAKE UP MASTER!"
Suddenly Zim jolted awake in his bed, he could hear his PAK whirring, trying to keep up with his beating heart.
He looked around the room and found his robotic slave jumping on Zim's bed.
"MASTER! Susie let me out of the TACO PLACEEEE!"
Zim was still confused room the strange dream he just had. But was suddenly angry at the little robot for waking him from it.
"GIR! What have I told you about waking me from my SLEEP-CYCLE?" He practically screamed at the little robot, causing him to fall out of Zim's bed.
"Awwww I'm sorry master… I know what'll make you feel better!" Gir was about to pounce on Zim into a huge bear-hug but Zim stopped him.
"Gir…."He sighed, "The only thing that would please me at this moment is not a hug, but something else."
Gir stared at his master with seemingly interested eyes and Zim continued without realizing.
"A girl, a human girl. There is only one stinking earthanoid that could possibly make me happy, but I couldn't possibly have her…" He drifted off silently.
Gir looked at his upset master and got up to leave "I'll leave you alone master…"
Zim looked up just as Gir left, somewhat dumbfounded at Gir's sudden personality change, but put it aside.
He was too upset to think about something like Gir's personality.
What was it that the humans used? Oh yes, depression. Zim figured he was depressed, he learned from his studies that depression was a mixture of anger and sadness that leaves one confused and in belief that his life is not what it should be.
He had lost his Invader status, was mocked by his people, was always brought down by Dib and his Skool…
And now he was going to lose Gaz.
He didn't get why he would be so upset though… she was simply a human, something he was going to destroy a while back, and he was…. In love with her?
He got up to get dressed and ready for the day ahead.
He made it to the house floor in a random t-shirt, one of the few human clothes he owned, and some black pants.
He was out of his disguise and looked a little tired…
"Hey Zim." His head snapped up and he looked around him.
Scoodge, Gir and Mini-moose were sitting at the table eating waffles… but they weren't the ones who spoke…
"Zim, are you okay? You look a little… upset" He looked over on the other side of the table and saw her.
"Gaz?" his voice was cracked and dry from crying and yelling.
She looked upset, most likely at his current appearance.
"Um, hey... I just stopped by to see how you were; you didn't look so good last night.
He nodded and continued to stare cat her ad then spoke, "You shouldn't worry about me, I am perfectly fine" he shovelled some of the waffles that were place before him.
His friends looked at him with a concern, they all knew (except Gaz) that he had lost his rank of Invader and the hardships he endured when he found out he was mocked this whole time.
He ignored it and went back to his waffles.
Gaz, after a few minutes, screeched her chair and stood up angrily. "ZIM! I am tired of this! Why won't you just tell me what the FUCK is WRONG with you!" she screamed.
Zim stood up and walked over to her, asking that the others leave. And they made no hesitation.
"You want to know what's wrong with me?" She nodded "Why do you THINK? Have you forgotten everything that's happened these past few days? Hmm?" her eyes widened as she remembered everything.
Then, he pushed her against the wall with a little too much force and smashed his lips against hers, yet she didn't struggle.
Instead, she wrapped her arms around him and returned it.
He broke it off and wiped his mouth, and then he began to cry again.
He walked back up to her and hugged her, and she hugged him back. "I….I….I l-love y-y-you~" he said while tears continued to escape his eyes, soaking into her shirt.
She felt tears in her eyes and hugged him harder…"I know Zim, I'm so sorry…" and she let go of him, and walked away.
"Zim," she said before walking out, "I'm sorry, but I need to think about this," she began to cry harder, "I'm too confused" and she ran out of his house, tears flying as she ran.
Zim sat on the floor of his house, hands in fists on his floor; he was shaking all over, crying like never before.
Gaz…I love you…..
So, that's my next chapter, but I'd like to warn you, it MIGHT get a bit angsty later on, if you cry, I'm sorry D:
