Tak is back
Chapter 4
Denial
Tak immediately realized what she was doing and pushed Zim away with as much force as her injured body would allow. She heard Zim's body land on the floor with a thud. She began to panic. Oh Irk, what have I done? It was a COMPLETE accident! Yes, an accident. But what will HE think? Wait! Why do I even CARE? She buried her face in her hands out of frustration.
Zim hesitantly stood up off the floor and peeked over the side of the bed. There were thoughts rushing through his mind making him feel dizzy and confused. He was starting to wonder if the past few minuets even existed. He decided that he should find out.
"Umm… Tak?" he questioned a bit nervously. "Did you uhh… kiss me?"
Tak didn't know how to answer that. "Umm… no?" she said, hoping that Zim was as dumb as he came off to be. She decided she didn't want to wait for him to answer. "Uhh… I still need that towel you know."
Zim nodded. This time he made sure he walked AROUND the bed and didn't lean over it. He quickly snatched the pinkish cloth and handed it to her. She took it just as quickly.
"Uhh… I'm going upstairs now…" Zim said breaking the silence. "Here's a communicator if you need me for anything." Tak nodded as she was handed a small device with a speaker and a few purple glowing buttons.
"And uh, get some rest. You need it." Tak nodded once more.
Zim was about to turn around when suddenly Tak spoke.
"Where's Mi-Mi?"
Tak had been distracted and had completely forgotten all about her little SIR unit.
"Oh… that." Zim said in slight disgust. He wasn't very fond of that spawn of Satan. "Its being repaired."
"Oh." Tak stared at the floor. "Can I see her?"
"Maybe later… when she is fully repaired." Zim said as he headed toward the elevator.
Tak sighed as she listen to the sound of the elevator doors close. She was glad to finally be alone. At last she had peace and quiet so she could try to make sense of all the things that had happened. She knew she never meant to kiss Zim… she never wanted to either. Yet, she was still glad she did… But WHY? She was positive she did not have a crush on the lousy invader. He practically ruined her life! That's right he DID ruin her life. She would make him pay… oh how she would make him pay! But he did save my life…she thought for a moment. And Mi-Mi's… So they were even then. He ruined her life but then saved it.
Tak sighed once more. Her eyelids began to droop. She slowly closed her eyes as she felt her head hit the soft warm pillow…
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Meanwhile Upstairs…
Zim let himself flop onto the couch next to Gir who's attention was wrapped in some insignificant cartoon show.
Zim let out a long sigh. He knew he would never have this problem if he had just left her there. Yeah, that's what he should have done… left her and her stupid pretty self in that stupid ugly forest. He felt his stomach grow warm tingly. Zim groaned. Not again. That had been happening a lot lately. Especialy when he was around HER, or even thinking about her for that matter. What was wrong with him? He had never felt so vulnerable around anyone before. Zim grabbed a pillow and screamed into it out of frustration.
Gir turned his attention away from his all mighty television set to see what his master was doing.
"Aww. Masta's not happy?"
"Gir… do you ever…" Zim began. "Oh, never mind! Uh, what am I thinking? You're a stupid robot!" Zim through the pillow at the television. "You wouldn't understand…"
Here Gir would have surprisingly shown intelligence and asked if his master's reason for being unhappy was in anyway related to Tak. But since Gir is not in any way intelligent he just shrugged and turned his attention back to his TV show.
YAY! Done! Hmmm…. Short chappy…mmmyep. R&R! luvluvluv
