"Dib!" Zim yelled, finding him outside crying.
"Leave me alone…" Dib said.
"Listen… I know he was special to you… he was special to all of us… but sometimes you just have to let it go…"
"THAT'S EASY FOR YOU TO SAY! YOU SPENT YEARS WITH HIM! YOU KNEW HIM BETTER THAN ANYONE!" Dib screamed as tears spilled down his face.
"But Dib… Life goes on…"
"Yeah…for you…" Dib said.
"And you too… Dib, you have to live with the fact that he's gone."
"No. I can't. Life just won't be the same without him… he was my… little brother… and the four and a half weeks he lived with me, we did everything together. He loved life and he didn't want nor did he deserve to die…"
"So what can we do?"
"I don't know about you, Zim, but I just can't live like this…"
"What do you mean?" Zim asked, hoping he wasn't going to make the same mistake that Zim had almost made not long ago.
"I…I'm going to kill myself." Dib said.
Zim wasn't happy with this. He pinned Dib against a nearby brick wall.
"No! You're not going to kill yourself! GIR wouldn't want that, now would he? He…he wouldn't want you to take your life away because he lost his!"
Dib was dumbfounded.(A/N: Am I just weird for liking that word? DUMBFOUNDED…heehee…)
Then he finally said something.
"Maybe that's just the way… it has to be…" Dib said, getting out of Zim's grip and running. Zim lost sight of him but soon found him by a river. He was on the bridge and by the railing. But instead of jumping, he sat down and just stared at the flowing water.
Why couldn't I just die instead, Dib thought to himself, I don't deserve to live. For all of the mistakes I've made…And all I ever seem to think about is myself and all of these lies about the paranormal… nobody cares about me… I'm just…me…
"Dib what're you doing?" Zim asked, sitting next to him.
No answer.
"Dib, you don't have to take your life away…because…"
"Because what?"
"Because I care about you and wouldn't want to see something horrible happen to you. You're my only friend left and I can't lose you too."
Dib thought for awhile.
"Okay. I'll live for you." he said.
"Thanks, Dib." Zim said, "I'm going back to the hospital. You can go on to my house if you like."
"O-okay." Dib agreed, getting up and walking into the direction of Zim's house. He opened the door.
The house was just too quiet without GIR. Things would never be the same without him.
I'm not done yet! J
