Disclaimer: I no own Invader Zimmy okay, so leave me alone and stop reminding me!
Notes: I should have made it longer, I think its longer. Anyway I love how this turned out, I really do.
I awoke to the sound of the alarm clock blaring in my ears. I instinctively swung my arm around and knocked the clock to the floor. It smashed into pieces, but at least I shut it off.
I sat up in bed and rubbed my eyes. Sleep always left me with an uncertainty, and I didn't like that feeling. I wasn't sure what I had dreamed or what I had lived. I tried to grasp a hold on the dream I had last night but it left my mind as soon as I thought of it.
I walked over to my closet in a haze and grabbed a black skirt, black fishnets, army boots, and a black fish net sleeved shirt.
I tossed my clothes and a couple accessories onto my bed. I put my clothes on and brushed my hair.
Then I woke up.
Today I was going to use the mind reading device to see how Zim feels about me. I grabbed the device and looked at it intently. Do I really want to know?
Obsessing over Zim was getting me nowhere.
and was a little ooc - heehee
So I put it into my pocket without another thought.
"GAZ!"
I heard Dib scream from downstairs. I sighed loudly and walked down stairs.
Dib was dressed in his usual black trench coat. His shirt had a swollen eyeballs symbol on it and his hair had its usual scythe. Poor, sad, usual Dib. I shook my head.
"What?"
Dib looked at me accursedly. I took this opportunity to study his face. Beneath his eyes were large dark circles, which gave them a sunken look. His eyes were bloodshot. He had been crying all right.
"What did you do Dib, smoke a joint last night or something?"
Dib looked at me and rolled his eyes. He turned around and slammed the door in my face.
Hold on, Dib can't do that to me! Before I even dealt with Zim I had to first deal with Dib. This attitude would not be tolerated.
I ran after Dib but stopped at the corner. I looked around for something, anything to throw.
I squealed in delight when I saw a huge rock. I picked it up and hurled it in front of me.
"SHIT!"
I started laughing and looked to see Dib clutching his arm and rolling on the ground in pain. I walked past him at a leisurely pace.
I heard Dib stand up and begin to walk towards me.
"Gaz… what the hell did I do to you?"
Dib was clutching his arm still, his face frozen in a grimace.
"I will not tolerate your attitude Dib."
I snarled and glanced over at him.
"Hey, I have a point. You do hang out with Zim too much. And if I didn't know better…"
I stopped in front of the school. I started to blush again and with the blush my anger grew. Why would he bring it up here of all places?
"What are you getting at DIB!"
I screamed, my hands in fists at my sides.
"I think you have a crush on Zim, Gaz."
Dib smirked, still clutching his shoulder. I didn't give a crap about his arm at that moment, I was pissed.
"THERE IS NO POSSIBLE WAY THAT I COULD EVER LIKE THAT ALIEN FREAK MORE THAN A FRIEND! WE'RE JUST FRIENDS OK? JUST FRIENDS!"
I screamed out loud.
Dib smiled and turned around. What was he so happy about?
"Why hello Zim?"
Dib said. I spun around to see a very hurt Zim looking at us. His eyes were wide open and he looked hurt.
My mouth dropped open as I stared at him. This is not the way I had planned for this day to go. I started stammering, opening and closing my mouth. I wanted to say something to fix this but nothing would come to mind.
Dib stood between Zim and I, the very picture of happiness. I was in shock and Zim was trying to look unhurt.
"Well off to the nurse!"
Dib cried cheerfully walking up the steps and into the building.
"He-he-he, I better be heading to class. Th-Th-There's still some time to tr-tr-tr-try and brainwash S-S-Smacky you know…"
Zim said as he walked past me and then bolted up the steps into the school. I turned and faced the entry way. This was not what I had planned at all.
I walked into the school just as the bell rang. My hand was running through my hair and I slipped the other one into my pocket.
The device! Maybe there was still time to use it.
The hallways became empty as second bell rang. I walked to the door of Zim's classroom and crouched down in front of the door.
I turned on the device and set it to Zim.
'I can't believe she'd say that. I mean, just friends? I thought we were more than that. Well maybe not a lot more but a little at least. God, she even called me an alien freak. She must really hate me. No stop, don't cry, not in front of these humans. You are part of the Irken elite. Having emotions for this human was bad enough, now you show weakness? You are not worth being an invader!'
I turned off the device and leaned against the door in awe.
This was a side of Zim I had never experienced before. He has feelings for me? I was surprised that he could even know what it was to cry. He has such a hard exterior, I would never think he could be this…this… human.
The door swung open suddenly slamming into the back of my head. A loud crack echoed through the hallway and I flew forward.
"Asshole! Look where you're going!"
I clutched the back of my head and looked up to see Zim, tears in his eyes, standing before me.
He covered his eyes and spun around.
"You do hate me don't you…"
He whispered, his back still facing me. I stood up and touched his shoulder. He flinched at the brief contact and tried to move away. I grabbed his shoulder and spun him around, forcing him to look at me.
"Listen I said that because Dib had been teasing me."
Zim looked at me like he didn't believe me. The tears were gone and replaced by a cold stare.
"What makes you think I would care! My only interest in you is and always has been the information you could provide me for the destruction of earth!"
"Drop it Zim! You haven't even made a move in 3 years! I'm doubting that you are even a true invader!"
I spat the words at him like they were venom. He glared at me coldly.
"You are a moron, an idiot, a disgusting stink beast…"
Zim came closer to me and looked me right in my eyes. I felt slightly threatened by him and tried to back away. He grabbed me by my upper arms.
"You are mean and selfish. The only reason you ever talked to me was to get revenge on Dib! You used me, you yelled at me, you called me stupid!"
Zim's face was so close to mine that I could feel his breath on my face. I started shaking, none had ever intimidated me like this, I was afraid.
"You are cold and mean…"
Zim snarled, then the look on his face softened.
"and I like it."
I was shocked but had no time to react. Zim pressed his lips to mine and pulled me in close to him. I couldn't resist and willingly opened m mouth to accept his tongue. I felt the white hot intensity of the kiss we shared and was losing ,myself into him. Hs tongue massaged mine and his grip loosened on my arms as he pushed me away.
He turned away and went back into the classroom, leaving me in the hallway alone.
My legs collapsed under me and I fell to the ground holding a hand to my lips. M face felt hot and my mouth tingled. I could still feel how he pressed his tongue against mine. I sat there for hours in silence until, the lunch bell rang.
