Project 59 by Bonez aka HappyNoodleGurl
Chapter19
Raye turned the corner, furious at Dib for being angry at the fact she kicked that *blonde bitch's ass(A/N: *sorry to any blondes out there ^^'''). Looking down at the ground, she hurried towards the girls bathroom which was down the hall.
Suddenly, she hit something and fell back on her behind. A sharp pain crawled up her spine from her tailbone, as she looked up and saw Zim standing over her. He was late for class obviously, and stared at her bloody knuckles with a raised eyebrow.
"Raye-human......please tell me that's ketchup on your hands," he asked helping her up, and she shook her head. "If I was lucky.......no, I got in a fight." Standing, she cursed in her mind at the hand-me-down heels the good-will gave her. Zim smirked staring her up-and-down.
"This isn't exactly you're taste in clothing, is it?" Laughing nervously, she gave him a sarcastic look. "Well, when they've lost about everything they own, beggers can't be choosers huh?." Zim nodded, and turned around opening his pak. Pulling out something, he faced her again with a cool smile.
"Yea, I heard about the fire. I wanted to visit you but that horrible..disgusting..Dib-beast wouldn't let me." He held out his hand and in his palm stood a small, brown box. Raye stared at it, unsure if she should except it or not.
Zim shuffled his foot on the ground, and Raye eyed the box carefully. "Should I?" she asked, and he nodded. She placed her hand on the box and he suavely rubbed her hand with one of his claws. Blushing, she grabbed his gift and tucked it away in her small black purse that hung at her side.
Searching in her eyes, he noticed she looked sad in some way. "So, Raye..Did you get in a fight with him or something?" She stared at him, surprised that he knew she was upset. "In a way, yes.." Zim couldn't help but smirk wider as he placed his hand on her shoulder.
"Yea, he can be..a prick, every male of the human race is," he said with a wink. Had he heard her say that to Dib? But that statement made her affection towards Zim..reappear. She had been hurt by men so many times, and they all were human, but Zim..wasn't from Earth. Maybe, just maybe, he knew she knew his secret.
Something in his purple eyes told her that he knew. She looked down at the ground shamefully, and he wrapped his arm around her. "Why don't we play hooky? Let's leave this foul learning institute that smells of hideous teenagers." Without taking a moments thought to consideration for Dib or her teachers, she agreed.
"Just get me out of here.." she pleaded, as he was delighted to hear those words come from her mouth. "All the teachers are in class, so if we run, we can get to my base----er, house." He smiled as they started to walk to the front double doors and off campus. -----------------
Meanwhile, Dib had slowly walked back into class. He walked through the door, and the first thing he saw was Christie weeping at the mixing of make-up and blood on her face. He looked around at the students, who gave him thumbs up. He sat at his desk and sunk in his seat.
Then, a guy that sat next to him named Jarrod, tapped his shoulder. "Dude! You rock to have a girlfriend that hard-core!" Dib thanked him, wondering why everyone kept smiling at him. All because of Raye?
What happened to the Raye that would never hurt a fly? Or even think of hurting another person? For that split second he had seen her turn into someone else, and he didn't like that change in personality.
All these thoughts ran through his mind until he noticed she hadn't been back from the bathroom yet. The bell was about to ring, and she had been gone for 40 minutes. Suddenly, he became worried. He didn't know exactly why, but he was worried to death for her. That's how he knew that he was madly in love.. ---------------
Raye and Zim bursted through his front door and she plopped down on the couch. Zim sat on the opposite side and watched her twidle her fingers. That's when he noticed the ring. Why he had to ask the question was beyond his idea: he already knew the answer.
"So, who got you that ring?" She looked up at him and sighed. "..Dib." He nodded and stared at the ground. Christie's blood had dried on her knuckles, and it was quite uncomfortable to her. "Zim, do you have a bathroom?"
He met her gaze, and slowly shook his head. "I do but.." She raised an eyebrow. "..But what?" "Uh..it's backed up! Gir had, uh, Crazy Taco yesterday. Whoo! It's stinky in there. But I have sink!" Nodding, she followed him to the kitchen sink.
She turned on the water and started to wash the blood from her hands. They started to feel clean again, which made her a little bit more happy. She turned around and noticed Zim's pale expression as he stared at the running water. Was he afraid of it or something?
She tunred the water off, and dried her hands well. She stroked his soft green skin and smiled. "Listen, I've got to talk to you.." Zim nodded, as he followed her back into the living room. ---------------
A/N: Hmm..what could she want to talk about? Well, I'm not going to spoil it fer ya and thanks to DoomDib777 for reviewin' me yesterday! Yes, I know all men are like that, I just pointed it out but I still wuv you even though I am in a male-bashing mood. ^____~ Well, uhhh..review if you want and I'm going to start chapter 20! Bai!
