Chapter 10,
When Dib finally exited the closet, he had decided that he had always had feelings for Zim. When he first met Zim, he felt shock and gratification at finding him and happiness at the chancw to prove that he wasn't crazy. When his obsession started to die down, a hatred grew between them.
But now, Dib wasn't sure what he was feeling around Zim. It felt strange to be around Zim. Being enemies for so long they know how to push each other's buttons, and they stil argued frequently; but Dib realized that he stopped hating Zim a wile ago.
Around Zim, he constantly felt nervous and the need to protect him. As Dib laid down in his bed, he recalled the pitiful whimper Zim made this afternoon. That whimper transformed Zim from an evil alien to a poor injured soul.
Though Dib was sure that Zim didn't want him to hear that noise, it was just one of the few things that Zim has done to influence Dib's behavior.
Dib blushed softly and allowed a small smile as he remembered the way Zim cleaned his spider legs. It wasn't really like Dib to think of an ordinary act in the light of an arousing or sexual act, but this was a little sexy.
Indulging in fantasy for once, he closed his eyes and imagined that scene with the spider legs. Zim rubbing, stroking, ans caressing the metal device and finally looking at Dib. But instead of Dib turning away in embarrassment, Zim smiled evilly and teasingly licked one of his spider legs with his long slim tongue. With a gasp Dib's eyes shot opened and he leaded upon his arms.
"Ok, don't do that, Dib. That's a little too much tempation for you, and-" Dib blinked when he looked down his body.
"Wow, I have never gotten an erection this hard that quickly." Dib muttered.
I should probably just wack it off so I can get to sleep. Wait, no! Then that would definitely prove that I am gay for Zim. I'm not ready for something like that yet. I don't care if it will take forever, I'll just go to sleep now.
Dib decided and rolling unto his side, he forced himself to sleep. Even though he knew that being in his day clothes would wake him up in the middle of the night, as it always has.
After watching the 3D couple mate, Zim couldn't bring himself to watch the lesbian or gay sex. Zim was blushing so badly, that he began to worry that he was making it permanent. Unsure of what to do next, Zim was sitting in his control chair while staring at the many buttons in front of him.
"Master, Master, Master, Weee! Master, Master, Master, Weee! Master, Master, Master, Weee!" Gir said as he came down the elevator and Zim instantly glared at the robot when he got close enough.
"Gir, I specifically ordered you not to bother me." Zim said and Gir blinked.
"Oh, yeah." Gir said and Zim's eye twitched.
"What do you want?" Zim asked and Gir held up a metal chip.
"I remembered that you wanted this." Gir said and Zim snatched the chips and stared at it.
"Oh, yes. This chip goes in my pack and blocks those signals it sends my brain to stop me from dreaming. Now for all those humans who say 'in your dreams', well they will rue the day they said that to me." Zim said as he put the chip in the pack.
"Now to test the chip. Gir, I am going to sleep now, and do not wake me unless it is to wake me up for school." Zim said as he walked to his occasionally used sleeping quarters. As soon as he hit the 'sleep' button on his bed, he started to dream.
Humans were running and screaming with fear. They carried their children as they ran from their homes being destroyed by lazers. Zim cackled as he led his irken army through the blazing world of ash spreading destruction throughout the globe.
Zim's plan for world domination was a thriving success and he kept hearing praises from his fellow troops, and even from the humans before getting killed. The irkens destroyed the skool and turned it into a throne for Zim who sat and watched the chaos. Finally, Zim's Tallest brought forth Dib who struggled pitifully in their grasp and Zim smiled.
"Ah, Dib, it's good to see that you were alive long enough to see this." Zim said and Dib glared at him.
"Is this really what you wanted Zim?" Dib asked and Zim chuckled.
"Of course it is, I am an invader after all. Besides my Tallest are happy and the human race is gone. Except for you." Zim said pulling out a gun from his pocket and shooting Dib between the eyes. All ths irkens laughed and Zim twirled the gun.
"Ha, ha, what do you have to sat about that Dib?" Zim asked and the Tallest dropped Dib and Zim watched Dib's body fall lifelessly on the ground.
"Dib?" Zim asked with a horrible feeling spreading through his body.
"Oh, Zim stop gloating, he's dead. Alright everybody, let's go destroy another planet?" One of the tallest said, but Zim wasn't sure which one because he was staring at Dib.
"Dib?" Zim asked kneeling next to Dib, and ignored the ships happily taking off.
"Come on Dib say something, anything." Zim pleaded, picking up Dib's head and pulling it into his lap.
"Wh-why are you so silent?" Zim asked, his body trembling.
"Dib? D-Dib, Please! You never could stay quiet when I insulted your sister. Ok, ok, let's see, uh. Gaz will never amount to anything unless she is mounting a man." Zim said with a hopeful smile, but he whimpered when Dib still didn't move.
"DIB! Punch me, hurt me, insult me, dump a bucket of water on me, Do Something!" Zim said as tears finally fell on his flushed face.
"Oh, Dib. Why are you looking at me like that? We both knew for a long time, t-that... that..." Zim broke down crying, pulling Dib's body into his lap and cradling him. Zim somehow hoped that if he held Dib tight enough then he would become full of life again.
"What did you think would happen?" Zim quickly pulled away and stared at Dib's unmoving face.
"D... Dib?" Zim asked.
"I'm over here now, genius." Zim heard Dib say and Zim looked up to see Dib, but he was different. This Dib looked like a patch of white-blue fog and Zim glanced from this Dib to the body in his arms.
"Well, Zim... This right here is what you always wanted I did ask if you were sure about it, and you were." The ghost Dib said and Zim blinked through his tears.
"B-but, this... You... It shouldn't feel like this." Zim said and ghost Dib shrugged.
"What did you think would happen?" Dib asked and Zim shook his head.
"Not this. I'm suppose to feel accomplishment at your death, but I want you back. C-can't you just get back in your body?" Zim asked.
"Technically I can, but why should I?" Ghost Dib asked and Zim blinked.
"To be alive again. I can take you to my planet, and we can forget about earth." Zim said and ghost Dib gave a sympathetic smile.
"I could, but that wouldn't really be a life worth living, Zim. You should know that." Ghost Dib said and Zim whimpered.
"I'll protect you, Dib." Zim pleaded and Dib gestured to his body.
"Looks like you already have." Ghost Din said and heavy tears flowed from Zim's eyes.
"N-no. I'll really protect you, now!" Zim shouted and Ghost Dib shook his head.
"Even though I want to, I just can't believe you. Besides if I did live, you would have to either hide me all the time or I would have to be some sort of slave. I'm not doing either of those. And ignoring that, how could I ever be with you?" Ghost Din asked and Zim whimpered.
"Don't you care about me?" Zim asked and Ghost Dib took a deep breath.
"Maybe I did, and maybe I didn't, but that doesn't matter now. You destroyed earth, the only home I have ever had, you killed my family and you murdered me without a second thought. You got everything you have ever wanted, Zim. Now all that's left is for me to pass on and let you live your life." Ghost Dib said and Zim put down Dib's body and stood up.
"Don't go, I need you!" Zim said as Dib's blood dripped off his clothes.
"Goodbye, Zim." Ghost Dib said as he started floating off.
"No! No!" Zim shouted as he chased the ghost smiling back at him.
"Dib, come back, I'm sorry!" Zim shouted as the ghost faded away.
Zim woke up with a start, ran out of his sleeping chamber, and rushed out of his base.
"Dib! Dib! Dib!" He screamed loudly.
"Master, where are you going? You forgot your disguise!" Gir said shouting at Zim.
