I've been embraced by a new community. That's what happens when you're finally honest about who you are; you find others like you.
-CHAZ BONO-
Last day at school before the weekend, everyone was excited, except for Dib.
Last night was weird, to say the least.
Some students and teachers were talking about it, saying how the bodies were badly burned,
And no one survived.
Some were actually afraid the murderer next target may be the school for some reason,
Dib could see Zim smile as he heard everyone talking about it.
And the fact that he was actually one of the reasons why all that happened, made his stomach turn,
Yet...
He didn't seem to mind it that much,
That place was a disaster.
Classes went like usual, and lunch was a little better than yesterday, Zim tried chatting with him, using nicknames for the whole 'accident' thing.
And Dib answered him, but not much,
He wasn't feeling that good...
He hated weekends.
--
Both Dib and Zim walked, Gaz for some reason said she won't come, Dib had noticed she's been acting weird since she and Zim met.
She keeps avoiding him.
Zim waved his hand at Dib then walked away, Dib took a deep breath as he got inside,
"Get ready."
His head snapped to his father, he knew what he meant, so he ran towards his room, he took a quick shower, and removed anything metallic he was wearing, But of course, the choker was in place, it worried him to death what may happen if they...
But yet, he could do nothing.
So without seconds thoughts, he walked downstairs, and out of the house to his father's car, The professor walked behind him.
He got in the car and turned it on, then drove to the mental hospital.
--
"Open your mouth." The tall doctor said as he moved the clothing close to his face,
Dib did what he was told.
"Hey, i told you to get everything metallic off of you!" The man snapped as he gazed at the choker, he tried taking it off since Dib'd hands were inside the straight jacket,
The choker was attached and won't loosen at any attempt.
"What the-..." he called other doctors and scientists to see what the problem was, They all tried to get it off, but they couldn't,
Dib heard the choker click.
He also could see his father from far away in the dark, he didn't seem happy with losing time with such a thing. He waved his hand to the scientists, they tried telling him the choker was made of metal, but he only gazed hard at his son as if he did everything on purpose.
The tall doctor stood there for a moment, he knew he shouldn't do this, this may kill the boy, literally!
But even so, the man didn't want to lose his job.
Dib nervously gazed from his father to the doctor, he felt betrayed, he knew what may happen if he was wearing any metal, he knew very well.
The man got the device in hand and moved behind the boy's head, Dib closed his eyes shut, his hands into a fist, this is going to be so fucking painful. The tool touched his forehead sides, the strong shock of electricity ran in his head and body, he screamed but it was muffled, The choker sent more electricity in his spine, he felt like burning from the inside out.
His hot tears ran down his cheeks.
The place smelled like burnt clothes and flesh.
He could hear scientists whispering from behind,
A bitter taste in his mouth from the dirty clothing.
He panted with every round they gave him, his sight was a blur since his glasses were tossed aside.
The man rose the electricity higher.
The boy screamed, and cried.
He hated them!
He hated everyone!
His body became numb, his head and neck burning. The device was so hot, he felt like his bones were melting.
He was on the edge of drifting off.
"Again."
Everything became dark.
--
He woke up in his white suffocating room, still wearing the straight jacket, They didn't even bother to get his glasses back.
He rested his heavy head on the bed he was laying on, they had to force him to rest, tomorrow they would do the same, then he'll go vest his therapist, It was an old woman who seemed like she hated kids and never liked listening to them, for her luck, Dib never spoke anyway.
Dib counted slowly as he gazed at the ceiling.
I hate him...
'...'
I know you do as well.
'He's my dad...'
He's literally leaving you here to rot!
'...'
I hate everyone.
'Don't say that.'
We both know it's the truth...
'...maybe...'
...
'I'm just tired...'
I know.
'I hate myself...'
...
'Why do they have to do this...?'
Because they hate you, Dib. Can't you see? They fucking want you dead.
'No, they don't...'
Oh yeah? Keep lying to yourself.
'...'
Dib gazed at the ceiling with his blurry vision, he couldn't breathe properly because of the suffocating jacket.
Zim's words danced in his head,
"Nobody believes you..."
"Not even your family..."
"They think you're crazy, insane..."
"But i can make you happy..."
"I believe in you..."
"Why can't you see that?..."
"Why won't you be mine?..."
"Everything would be okay..."
"You could be happy..."
"Be mine, Dib..."
The boy sighed, his head hurt more as voices kept talking inside.
He believes in you...
'He doesn't, he's just using me, us.'
No, Dib, he doesn't.
'How would you know?! He said it himself, he said he just wanted to have fun!'
He did, and i don't care...
'What are you saying?'
People hate us...
'...'
They don't believe in us...
'That's not something new.'
That's the problem!! They would NEVER believe in us, they'll always hate us and wish we were never born!
'...'
Yet... you're wasting your life on them.
'That's not—'
-YOU'RE waste your LIFE on them!!
'I...'
Maybe it's time to see what we really are...
'But-...'
If they want us dead, then they'll remember us no matter what.
'Maybe...'
We have been separated for a long time, why don't we become one?
'No more fights?...'
Why should we fight?
'You know i don't like him, i don't like Zim...'
Well... i'm not sure I'm attracted to him as well, but we should give it a try.
'I... i don't know, i can't...'
We can work on that, Zim doesn't matter now, what matter is us!
'They do deserve this, don't they?'
Your father is probably eating right now while you're suffocating here, and he will never even come to your funeral because he's embarrassed.
'I hate them all...'
Can you blame us?
'How are we going to show them? To take... revenge?'
We could do it alone, but that would be hard, we might get caught...
'Or...?'
Or we could ask for help, we could ask him.
'Zim?'
Who else? if we're gonna get caught then, at least, we spent time with a real alien, who actually believed, even if it was a lie, in us!
'... maybe'
You're with me?
'I won't say i trust that alien... and i won't try to be nice...'
Leave that part to me.
'...'
...
'Fine...'
Good, so good.
'If we're done, i want to sleep...'
Sure, I'm tired as you are.
'That's Because you're me, moron.
Heh, yeah, i know...
'Let's be one, together. we're not broken like they say...'
...right.
Dib slowly closed his eyes, something weird happened to him, he felt... new...
Is if he got a weight from his chest.
He sighed,
Something was back in him...
Someone.
--
Dib woke up at the sound of the door opening, he shifted his body to a sitting position, his legs crossed.
He wasn't the same as yesterday,
He wasn't the same scared boy, the one who cried and pleaded for them,
He wasn't weak anymore...
He won't let them break him,
No one could break him,
Not anymore...
Instead of the sad, tired and scared expressions he always put on his face... this time, he looked like a real insane boy, Black bags under his eyes, his eyes red and narrowed, gazing dangerously yet numb at anyone, through anyone.
He wasn't shaking or yelling 'he was fine'. He was so still as he watched the doctor and his nurse come closer,
He didn't try to break free from them,
He wasn't trying to get up at all.
His face numb with dark expressions.
Blinking slowly...
Gazing hard.
Anyone who would see him will run away.
They want an insane boy?
Fine.
They'll have him.
The nurse helped him get up and move towards the same room, where they'll attach their stupid tools to his head. They walked slowly, his head down, gazing at anyone who passed by.
They walked down the clean and quiet hallway, walking slowly as the doctor held him by his shoulders, the nurse walked in front of them, opening any locked door with her card. Both the doctor and his nurse were quite surprised by the silence, and the lack of fighting back, or screaming.
They shared looks before entering the white and smelly room.
Doctors and scientists were talking as he walked by, They then stopped and gazed at him, they looked at each other and back at him, then at his father,
The boy was... too calm.
He didn't fight, shout, cry, or beg like always did.
He didn't seem like the same boy they saw yesterday, his head was down, chin almost touching his chest, he gazed at the floor, at his legs, then looked at them with a deadly glance, never moving his head as he studied their faces.
He was paler, black under his eyes, expressions were hard to read, but if they could guess, the boy looked... numb...
Was that even an expression?
Even though that was not scientifically possible, they could imagine black clouds floating around him, as if his body was glowing dark energy, too dark and horrifying.
They could feel it.
It made them want to walk out of the room.
To run for their lives.
Every scientist that made eye contact with the boy's dangerous gaze, would swallow and pretend to write something in their papers.
Dib walked to the table as they forced him to lay down, even though he wore his straight jacket, they had to tie him up.
He moved his feet slightly back and forth, then gazed at his father, who didn't look... so happy with what he was seeing.
The tall scientist looked at him as he turned on the device, his gaze traveled from the boy's face to his neck, he still didn't think the whole treatment with the choker situation was a good idea, but yet he had to do his job. The nurse came with the cloth and told Dib to open his mouth, but the boy only gazed at his father, he didn't seem to hear her at all, she asked again, but received nothing.
She looked at the scientist, he sighed and put his hand on the boy's cheek, tapping it to get the boy's attention, And it did, he moved his glance to the tall man, giving an animal glare, an animal that was hungry to bite anything.
The man snapped his hand back, it stayed in the air for a second before he asked Dib to opened his mouth,
But the boy only looked back at his dad.
The nurse shrugged and left the area. The scientist sighed again and leaned down, the metallic tool touching the boy's pale skin, sending electricity down his spine.
Dib's head leaned back, eyes shut angrily, he didn't scream like every time, but hissed harshly, his hands into a fist even though they were trapped inside the jacket, he gritted his teeth tightly.
The choker drew black lines to his jaw and to his chest, it looked like spider nets, as if he tattooed it with the darkest color of black.
It made him choke as he felt blood fill his mouth, the device was burning, sending electricity back to the boy's head, as if it was at war with the electricity the tall man put him through. His chest rose up as the feeling ran down his body, his limbs twitching.
Rage and anger were everything in his mind, it was everything he felt right now, anger.
The treatment went by. Raising it with every round, making his hair stand straight, the bloodstream fell from the table sides, making a tip tap noise on the metallic floor. He was suffocating from his own blood, and he was sure no one noticed, and even if they did, they won't care enough to say anything. They would just watch, gaze at him, at this- oh poor insane kid...
It made him mad.
Finally... finally they stopped, they finished the hell he was going through, taking notes, whispering, gazing, and wondering.
His dad however was just staring at him, he didn't do anything but stare, blankly.
And that made him satisfied.
--
After another night in the mental hospital, it was time for his therapist, the ugly woman.
He sat in the back seat looking out of the window, his thoughts traveling to everything, his newfound hatred, his anger, insanity, and other thoughts...
Maybe about that dead cat he saw minutes ago in the streets-
His gaze never looking at his father, even though he knew his dad was staring at him, hard, he didn't like how his son acted, it was so unusual. The car stopped in the parking lot, he got out slowly and walked towards the door without waiting for his dad to come.
--
"So, how was your day?" The woman asked with a voice filled with: 'i don't want to know' tone. So he just looked at the ground, quiet as always, the woman sighed and rolled her eyes, just about to get up before Dib talked, for the first time actually...
"Do you ever feel like you have finally found who you really are?..." he asked all of the sudden, not looking at the therapist, he could feel her stare right on him.
She sat down silently, it was so unusual for him to talk, it made her listen, for the first time it seemed, "yes, sometimes you just have to look at things the other way around, take a closer look at things, reconsider things, thoughts. It makes you feel like another person, maybe a person you never thought you had inside, or maybe an old self."
Dib counted using his fingers as they hang in his lap, he didn't answer but waited for her to continue, so she took another breath and opened her mouth again, "did you find who you really are?"
This made the boy stop for a second, "i think so."
"Do you like who you are now?" Maybe being a therapist wasn't that bad after all... this kid was different...
"Me now sees the truth... a horrible truth." He gazed at her from behind his locks hair that landed on his face.
"What kind of truth?" She swallowed at the look, and shifted her legs. Almost gasping when she saw him standing, then walking around while thinking, she was used to people doing these dramatic movements when they visit her.
"The humans." He walked back and forth slowly, his fingers mirroring the others,
"What about them?" She wrote down his answer as it was quite interesting, then looked at him again, he stopped, his back to her; she heard him murmured something under his breath, "what?"
He stayed like that for a moment, just talking to himself it seemed, then he turned around at her, "can i ask you something, ms. Lily?" He asked calmly, a slight smile on his lips, but his eyes were dark.
She blinked at her name and nodded, "sure."
"What if..." he looked to the side, trying to find the right words to say, "what if i was right? All along?"
Oh, here we go again with this nonsense about how humans never believed in aliens, "right about what?"
"No."
She blinked again, no? No about what?
He tsked, his eyes finally meeting hers, "what if i wasn't insane as you claim?" He got closer to her, slowly.
"You need your medicine, you know that, Dib."
He hissed at this, it was the same his father kept telling him. He got close to the point he was face to face with her, his amber eyes looking at tired green ones, "don't tell us what to do." He hissed through his teeth,
"'Us?'"
"Do you know what truth about humans I discovered lately?" He looked down at her neck, she was wearing a high collar sweater, "they are..." he smirked at this, and got closer, his hands slowly raising to her neck, "...doomed." His hands gripped her by the throat, holding tight, smirking.
"What are you--?!" She choked at her words, trying pointlessly to free herself, eyes locked with the insane boy before her, her nails scratched the boy's arms, but he didn't seem to care. he was so very strong.
'I didn't agree on this.'
You did.
'I said people who hurt us! She did nothing wrong.'
Remember when she told dad we needed more medicine for our 'craziness'??
'But that doesn't mean we have to kill her!'
Ugh, fine, no killing. Touché.
The woman was already losing her consciousness, her eyes closing while tears ran down her face, she was pale and almost purple. Did huffed and let her go, she was already in a deep sleep.
Looking at her then at what she was writing about him, it read something about more medicine and medical issues- he hissed and wanted to argue more with the other voice but decided against it. He leaned down, took a tissue and whipped her tears with a disgusted face, then waited for her face to go back to normal, he took a small breath,
Ready? it's your turn.
'Sure.'
He held her by the shoulder, changing his face expressions, from anger and numbness to fear, forcing tears to run down, he screamed.
And as he expected, two men rushed inside the room, both panicking when they saw the poor woman unconscious, "what happened??" One asked Dib as he held the woman,
"I- i don't know! She- she just fainted out- i'm- i'm sorry I didn't know what to do!" He cried out,
They felt slightly sad about him, "it's okay kid."
Oh, what a good actress you are!
'Quiet it'
He stood up, watching them take her away, he wiped the fake tears away from his eyes and walked out of the room, this time not to his dad's car, but somewhere else.
--
In his way, he thought of nothing but the woman's face, oh that scared eyes, the way she could talk no more, the way she never expected him to do anything like that, the way this plan was working, his newfound self.
He walked, looking at his hands, at the small scratches the woman's nails had done to his skin, how he could have killed her if he stayed a little longer. Humans were weak, he was much stronger, now he knew this.
"Get out of the way freak." His head snapped at the voice, he looked at the girl in front of him, it was Sara, walking her dog.
He didn't move.
"Are you now deaf?? I said get out of the way!"
He looked around the sidewalk, there was enough space for her to walk, but no, She had to bother him, it wasn't enough for her just in school. He smirked, "or what?" He leaned down at the slightly shorter girl.
She hissed and looked at her dog, she also had to smirk, "or i'll let my dog eat your ass, now move away." She replied with sarcasm.
He gazed at the dog who was hissing his teeth at him, ready to attack. Dib only blinked slowly at him then at the blond girl, "i see." He stepped closer- oh he liked this move! "I don't believe you'll do such a thing, little girl."
Sara rose a thin eyebrow, "watch me." She let the dog belt she was holding, and kicked her dog towards the boy, the dog barked loudly and attacked the boy's leg.
Dib hissed and leaned back, the dog teeth buried in his leg, he felt blood ran down his skin, he fell back, already trying to make the damn animal teeth off of him, Sara was laughing at him as she took out her phone, and took a picture of him struggling on the ground, "that's why you never mess with me." She giggled.
The boy looked around for something to use, anything as he felt the dog almost ripping his leg off. His eyes caught a sharp rock on the street side, he moved his hand and held it tight, shifting to his side, then hit the dog hard on the head,
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING??!" Sara screamed as she watched her lovely dog get beaten up, probably to death-
The rock hit the dog over and over again, he already let go of the boy's leg and started whimpering in pain in the street, Dib didn't stop there and kept hitting, blood came out the animal's head, it stopped moving and only breathed harshly, "STOP- YOU MONSTER WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?! O- MY GOD!" Sara screamed with tears, choking at the sight of her dog, lifelessly laying on the floor.
Dib panted and stood up at his good leg, a smile on his face while he tried holding himself not to fall off, just about to walk away from her, he heard the girl speak again, "YOU FUCKING IDIOT!" She stood up as well and pushed him, but to her surprise, he wasn't the same weak boy that would fall immediately, but strong, too strong for a skinny guy, just like if she pushed a wall, she hesitated and took a step back.
He laughed at that, and walked away, it wasn't his type to fight with girls anyway.
--
Just a few minutes later, after dragging his injured leg with him, he was standing before the neon greenhouse, he knew this might turn out bad, but no, he had enough, he needed help to show his own people who he really was.
His own people.
He sighed and walked to the door, feeling everything around watching him, but not thinking twice before he was already standing in front of the purple door,
He knocked.
Knocking three times then waited, shifting from one leg to the other, ignoring the bleeding. he no longer wanted to feel physical pain; or care about it.
The door opened, revealing the small green dog, "hellooooo?" The robot gazed at the skinny boy, tongue hanging from his mouth, hands covered in... blood? Watercolors?
"Where's Zim?" He asked, taking a step forward,
The robot looked at him, then at his leg, he gasped, "you can also make watercolors???" He pointed out.
"What-?? No. I'm injured." He snapped, not liking this whole 'watercolors' the robot was talking about.
Gir gasped again, "yaaaaaaaay!!" He screamed happily,
Dib hissed, "no. This is bad." He folded his arms.
"Oh. Yaaaay!"
Ugh just shove him and get in!
'He fucking has weapons!'
Then do something.
"Where is Zim??" Dib asked again, holding the urge to scream at the stupid piece of metal,
"He's down!"
"Down? Where?" Unfolding his arms and looked around the house, Dib couldn't see any stairs to lead- down.
"Workin'!" Gir answered and walked away from the door, "come, i show you!" He hopped on his small legs and into the house. Dib hesitated slightly but followed him, he's going to see where 'down' was, it was probably the alien's secret base!
Gir stopped in the middle of the kitchen and waited for Dib to get closer, his gaze on the tripping blood from the human's leg. Before Dib could even think twice, the floor slide open for a tube to lock them inside, "what the-??" He hissed and gazed at the robot, "what's that!?"
Gir stared at him with blankness, but said nothing.
Eventually, the computer talked with her female boring voice, "IT IS AN ELEVATOR, HUMAN DIB."
He snapped his head at the ceiling just in time for the elevator to start moving down, "i- see..." he felt slightly embarrassed.
After a few seconds, they were both in what appeared to be the main floor. The door hissed open, revealing a dark and cold room, it made Dib's hair stand straight, he gazed around at the big room, machines everywhere he looked, the walls were dark red and almost purple, ruby color.
On the floor, and almost everywhere, were papers, papers fall of drawings, mostly with the color red, some about pigs, frogs, dogs, and some were just smiling faces.
And some were about something with big eyes and two antennae, but he couldn't tell, it was poorly made, and what he assumed was blood, had turned to a brown color.
The room was suffocating at this thought.
Everywhere was just blood, now he just noticed.
"Shhhh, master doesn't like loud noises!" The robot hushed him, then drag him by his clothes, giggling slightly.
Yes, EVERYWHERE was drawings, papers with drawings. It made him sick.
His feet stepping on something wet, he looked down, just to find a pool of something red, he shivered and hoped to god it wasn't what he thought, but another part of him knew it was.
Wow...
'This place is creepy...'
We're in an alien base! Be grateful.
'I am grateful.'
Then enjoy, this was also your idea, don't forget that.
'...'
"Um- where is he--" Dib asked as they seemed to be walking deeper and deeper in the room, it kept getting darker and colder, making him almost regret coming here, almost.
Just when he thought Zim was probably in another room or not in the house at all, a light caught his gaze, before him was a big screen, it was red with some symbols on it. In the chair, was something- someone.
Dib focused his eyes in the darkroom, he could see something, something like an... antennae?
"Hiiii mastah!" Gir screamed happily, And waved a hand even though both of them knew the alien couldn't see him.
Oh so that was probably Zim in the chair... without his disguise!
"Hi, Gir." He said as he worked on something in his lap, "did you kill a baby or something? You smell like fresh blood."
"Nooooo," Gir leaned and shook his head, "ya friend is here!! It's his watercolors!" He pointed at the boy's leg.
"My what-??" Zim, for Dib's stupid luck, didn't turn around, he caught the reflection of the human on the big screen, And immediately turned on his hologram disguise, then turned around on his chair, abandoning whatever tool he was working on. "Ah! The Dib." He smiled, his face looked horrifying by the red light of the screen, and the big wide smile didn't help.
Dib took a step back.
"Hm, did you forget about me? I didn't see you all weekend." He leaned down and rested his cheeks on both hands, "don't be such a stranger!" He blushed and smiled sweetly.
Dib only stared at him, did he look... hot with this red light? Or was he just terrifying? Yes, he was probably just terrifying.
He shook the thought away.
Zim frowned and leaned back on the chair, crossing his legs, "why did you come?"
The boy took a deep breath, "you were right."
Zim's eyes went slightly wide, "eh?"
"You were right, about humans." He repeated.
The alien stared at him without a word. Slowly, he stood up from his chair and walked to the human, only stopping when he was face to face with him, "say again."
Dib blinked at the sudden closeness, he was as tall as the alien, or maybe not... now he thought about it, maybe he was taller just because he was wearing his boots, if not, then he'll be shorter by a few inches, this thought made him feel smaller by the others gaze, the alien was damn taller than him-
Taking a shaky breath, he started again, "they never believed in me, they always say that i'm just-... just insane! A crazy kid, they would never listen, it's their fault i'm having these seizures, they kept telling me what i see wasn't real! Like- you can't just tell a damn five-year-old kid that fairies aren't real! This would destroy their dreams- but noooo!- ugh! They are begging to be destroyed!!- i mean really, the truth is in front of them, but damn it they would never see! Never.
Humans are so blind, and they tell me that i'm blind! It's ridiculous! So stupid- and-... and my dad! He wouldn't even look at me, he always wanted me to be a real scientist, but after i got sick, he just... changed! Stopped pretending to be a father, he hates me! And i know Gaz does too-- it's just- just--..." he spoke fast, never noticing the tears that ran down his face, or the robot that was wetting his hands with his own leg blood and draw with it on the paper, and of course, never noticing Zim.
"I just-... i hate them..." he sniffed and looked down, never able to look at the other, shameful with his own words. His thin body shaking, not only because he was losing blood but also with fear and hatred...
Zim's hands drew to his cheeks, touching with his tears, he gasped and looked at the other purple eyes, surprised at the cold touch, "shhh," he hushed him and leaned closer, right beside his ear, "why did you come?" He asked softly, hot breath making the boy's face go red,
"I-... i was..." he hesitated, gazing at the far wall then at the other's fake dark hair, it smelled like something sweet, something like strawberry candy--
"Hm?" Zim wiped the tears off with his thump,
"I want your help..." he breathed out, not knowing how the other would reply,
"Oh? For what?"
He was frozen in place, "to-... to..." he swallowed, "to take humanity down."
"Revenge?"
The boy went quiet for a second,
Yes.
'Yes...'
"Yes," He finally said, waiting for an answer, the cold made him still, so very still.
Zim stayed like this for a second, not saying anything as he rested his hands on the boy's shoulders, he sighed softly, "you know what that means, right?"
Dib swallowed again, his gaze went to the robot on the floor who was drawing hearts and smiley faces with his own blood, then back at the black hair beside him, he didn't know if he really wanted to answer, and only waited for Zim to talk again,
"You're gonna be mine. Mine. My pet. Are you willing to be so?" His grip tightening as he drew back to look at the amber eyes before him, they reflected his face and the red light.
Dib's eyes were slightly wide as he looked back, considering this whole 'be mine' situation, he knew there was no going back. But who cares? Right? Of course, no one ever cared.
He sniffed again, then, so very slowly, he nodded, "y- yeah... yes."
There was no going back.
Zim's eyes went wide, expressions blank, he got closer, too close, "will you be mine?" He said with a flat voice, holding tighter at the boy's shoulders, almost jumping with excitement.
"Yes." Dib finally said, fast, not really knowing what will happen next, but that was his choice, humans were killing him, slowly. He needed his own happiness, even if it was from an alien, even if the alien only seemed to be using him.
The other's eyes were as wide as he had ever saw them, reflecting every light, a slow smile came to his face, finally, a new pet, something he seemed desperate to be close to, something that was small and depressed, something he'll have fun with- oh and that fun was all about the weapons he was building all his life.
The moment was weird, too weird. Dib stood anxiously as he waited for the other to say something, anything, but nothing, Zim only kept gazing at him, and to his fear, the alien eyes traveled down his face, to his lips, without realizing, he licked them, everything became a blur and he felt his face go hot and red, not liking how Zim was gazing at him, at his mouth!
Zim leaned as slowly as he could towards the human's face, when the boy didn't seem to move, even though he didn't seem to be able to, he closed the last gap between them.
Dib's eyes snapped open when he felt the other lips on his, He yelped in surprise but it was already muffled, too surprised to even react to the kiss.
A kiss, an alien was kissing him. Zim was kissing him.
It was deep, yet gentle. Tasted like candy, sweet sugary candy, it made him want to bite-
He slightly relaxed under the touch, feeling his legs melt away, the air became colder, but not in a bad way. He slowly closed his eyes, his body took control and he kissed back. Leaning his head closer to the other, his shaky hands traveled to the alien's wrist that hanged beside him.
Zim seemed satisfied as he hummed, kissing much deeper, enjoying that the human was kissing him back, the sensation felt like heaven.
Dib eventually drew back slowly, just inches away from the alien's lips,
"I'm gonna kill you."
Zim's eyes went wide as he heard the small whisper, it sounded like his own imagination playing tricks on him, he looked at the other but found no real intention of doing anything harmful, he actually looked calm, but Zim had to make sure, his paranoia won't let this down easily, "what did you say?..."
Dib blinked at him, still feeling dizzy and out of his right mind, "i said nothing..."
'Was that...?'
...
'It was you?'
No.
'I thought you liked him?-'
I thought YOU hated him.
'I do hate him.'
Then why did you kiss him back? I didn't agree with that.
'I-... i don't know, it was just an accident.'
...sure.
Dib hissed at his leg, and shifted around, not looking at Zim anymore, his face was hot red, heart skipping beats.
Zim looked at him, he grinned and leaned again for a quick kiss, softly and not waiting to see if the other would kiss back. He leaned back and straightened himself, his gaze went to where he was smelling the fresh blood from, the human's leg was bleeding, he was surprised how the boy said nothing about it, "your leg, you're injured." He pointed out.
The human boy looked at him slowly then at his own left leg, the floor beneath him was covered in his blood, just beside Gir.
"A dog bite." He said looking at the far wall and moving his legs slightly back and forth on his heels, biting his lips at the sweet taste of candies, this fact made him wonder...
Zim laughed slightly and walked to the elevator, "come." He smiled and waited for Dib to come,
Yes, he'll fix him, he'll fix his pet, he'll make him better, better than any human.
He'll do anything to him and for him.
He's Zims now, and nothing can change that.
Nothing.
