Chapter 9 – The Room

"You shouldn't hate anyone Gaz." Mama says. "You don't know him. Just because he took your bow, you shouldn't hate him."
"But I want to hate him. He's mean...."

Like Courtney. I can't believe Dib actually likes her. There is something about her, I just don't like. She's too....perfect. But then again, that might be why Dib likes her. She's supposedly interested in the paranormal. But she knew none of the stuff Dib was talking about. Dib, of course didn't notice. (Oh the joys of thin walls!)
The fact that she tripped him, and he didn't even notice is insane. I swear, he is doomed. And not even by me! By some girl named Courtney. I noticed something else walking home too. Tak's back. Unfortunately. And Zim was walking with her. That's highly unusual. I'd tell Dib, but....
I'd be being helpful wouldn't I?
Mama picks me up and places me on her lap. "If I go away Sweetie, you're going to have to take care of Daddy and Dib. You know how Dad is." There was a hint of bitterness in her voice. "He'll forget. So you're going to have to be nice to Dib."
"Yes Mama. I'll look out for him."
"Make sure no girl hurts him. If they hurt him, you hurt them back. They're sharks y'know."
"Yes Mama. I will."

Dib's room was ..... obviously his. The bedspread and curtain had little spaceships on them. There were posters of aliens and big foot and a "Men In Black II" poster. Along the top of the wall was a poster that stated; "In space no one can hear you scream." Dib also had Star Trek and Star Wars memorabilia.
"Your room is awesome!" Courtney exclaimed. Her black braids swung around as she turned her head around looking at everything.
Dib flushed. "Nah, it's alright. I do my best." Dib bent down and got a laptop from under his bed. He cut it on. The Windows XP Logo flashed on the screen while his programs loaded.
"So....you got any music?" Courtney asked. 'Anything to liven the place up a bit.'
Dib looked up from the laptop, his glasses askew on his face. He straightened them out. "Uh...no actually. I really don't listen to much music."
Courtney's face fell. "You don't? Wow, looks I've got to get someone some CD's."
Dib smiled. 'Wow, she's so nice.' "Really? Thanks. Look this is all the information I have on Zim."
A screen had come up on the computer that showed a 3-D diagram of Zim with his disguise and without his disguise. Underneath it was EVERYTHING Dib knew about Zim and the Irken race. There was also a revolving picture of Tak at the bottom and some info on her.
Courtney's eyes narrowed. "Who is that?" She pressed.
"Who, Tak? Just some dumb alien girl. She tried to pump magma out of the Earth's core. We got rid of her….But she came back." Dib said disgustingly.
"Who is … 'we'?" Courtney asked.
"Gaz, me, and…Zim." Dib said Zim's name so quietly she almost didn't hear it.
"Zim? He helped SAVE Earth." Courtney said stunned.
"Yup." Dib said quietly. "Makes you question his priorities."
"Dib, there's something you need to know about where I am staying. Social Services says this person requested me to stay with them."
"Well…who is it then?" Dib asked curiously.
"Zim."
"You're staying with ZIM? He's an alien. He'll conduct horrifying experiments on you..and..wait...you're not an alien are you? Oh no." Dib asked.
"No. I'm not an alien. I can take care of myself. And… Dib he's actually nice to me. He's not so bad…for an alien you know." Courtney said quietly. She glanced at the alien-spaceship shaped alarm clock on Dib's dresser. 6:15.
"I've gotta go." Courtney said hurridley.
"Bye." Dib said sadly, but she was already out the door.
