It was Friday morning and everyone was looking forward to the weekend. Ananstasia walked on the bus
and sat in her usual seat in the back. She wasn't too thrilled about weekends, she often found them boring.
She placed her headphones on her head like always, and began to listen to her CDs'. A few minutes later
she felt a tap on her shoulder, she turned too see Dib, who was looking at her in confused way. Anastasia
seemed to have the effect on people.
'Oh great..here come more questions..' she thought, becoming annoyed with Dib.
"Yes?" she asked trying to sound casual.
"Listen, I know I was rude to you yesterday about Zim but you--" Anastasia cut Dib off.
"Dib, even if I told you what I know, why would you expect anyone to beleive the two of us?"
"Infact, I was surprised that Zim over-reacted that much about it." she finished.
"Well...you didn't have to rub it in with that 'kiss.'" Dib said annoyed as he sat in the seat
infront of her. "Pardon?" She asked a little surpised. "That 'kiss' was nothing personal..if thats
what you thought." Anastasia said cocking an eyebrow. "Than why did you do it?" Dib asked while facing
her. "Well, I guess it was a little uncalled for, you could say it was rude.." Anastasia said. "But
don't hate me for it, I'd like to call it a little act of kindness, and to show you no hard..feelings?" Anastasia
said a little unsure of how Dib's response would be. "Oh." was all he said.
*************************************
Zim got on the bus in his usual cranky mood. Fridays didn't make a difference to him, so there was
no point for him to be in a happy mood. Anastasia waved to him as he sat in the seat besides hers'.
Dib and Zim started their glaring competition, and Anastasia pointed out whenever one of them blinked.
*************************************
At the end of the day as everybody was leaving a girl was passing out sheets of paper that read 'Birthday Celebration'
on it. Anastasia took hers, it read:
Your Invited To Amanda's Birthday Celebration!
when: Next Weekend
where: Lake Compounce
time: 12:00
Bring a friend!
Alaxandria got excited. A celebration at a them park like Lake Compounce sound cool to her, she just wondered
on who she should bring.
**somewhere else**
Zim read his invitation. "Lake Compounce? What the heck is THAT?" Zim would have to ask Anastasia
about it.
...."Whats a birthday...?"
**again somewhere else**
"Eh...I never really liked Theme Parks.." Dib said. "Plus I don't really have anyone to bring."
Dib threw his invitation away. Then, Dib's eyes widen as he pulled it out of the garbage. "Maybe I can
bring Anastasia..?"
**Anastasia's Bedroom**
"A Birthday is the date of a human's birth." Anastasia said to Zim. "They celebrate THAT?" Anastasia
sighed. She began to explain to Zim the why they celebrate birthdays and the traditions that fallow it.
"So..whats Lake Compounce?"
"Lake Compounce is what human's call a 'Theme Park', or in other words, 'An Amusement Park' its a park
you go too to amuse yourself. They have alot of activities to do there, they have these coasters called
rides, where you ride them and they go really fast and in basically every direction. Its really fun." Anastasia said.
Zim poundered the thought. "Well..it sounds like a waste of time to me." Anastasia sighed. "Why don't you go and see
for yourself?" she asked.
"Maybe."
"You can come with me.."
"Do I _HAVE_ to bring a _HUMAN_ along?"
"CAN YOU PLEASE STOP REFERING TO ME AS A _HUMAN_!?"
"But you are a _HUMAN_..aren't you?"
"Yeah, BUT I HAVE A NAME!"
"Yeah, a _HUMAN_ name."
"WELL I HAVE A _HUMAN_ NAME FOR A REASON!"
"Yeah, whats your point?"
"CALL ME BY MY NAME!"
"You mean your _HUMAN_ name?"
"......."
***NextDay***
Anastasia woke up from a knock at the door. She mumbled as she shouted 'HOLD ON' and got dressed.
She grumbled as she open the door. "Hello?"
"Hi!"
"Dib?" "Is something wrong?"
"No, I just wanted to know if you would like to come with me to that birthday celebration.."
"Oh I would Love to! As long as you don't mind Zim coming with us too."
"Your bringing Zim?"
"Yeah..heh. Its his first time at a themepark.." Anastasia laughed. "I want to see his reaction!"
"I..I guess I don't mind..as long as he doesn't try any funny stuff."
"I don't think he would."
"Okay than, thanks! Bye!"
"Bye!"
******Next Day******
"Uh..Zim?"
"What?"
"Hope you don't mind, but Dib is tagging along with us next weekend..okay?"
Zim glared at her.
"He promised he wouldn't pull anything if you didn't! ..sorta.."
Zim kept glaring.
"I promise nothing bad will happen!"
~~glare glare glare~~
"PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE ZIIIIIIIIM???" Anastasia batted her watery eyes.
"Thats not going to work."
She mumbled something.
"Well, Zim, I'll let you decide." And if these were anime characters, a big 'ol sweatdrop would appear
on Anastasia as she left Zim's front door.
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
ARRG! I have to cut it off this short, I'm going on vacation tomarrow and won't be back until
Sunday, so no new chapter until then, and I'm SO sorry this was short. But..isn't it an interesting
thought of seeing Zim in the cheap Haunted House at Lake Compounce?? ^^;;;;
