(I'm back with another chapter! Mwahahahahahahaha! I'll doom you all with my super short chapter! But yeah, like I said in my other fic, I'll be switching stories every other chapter to benefit my sanity. Capra hircus, yes very nosey Alters and very spouse-like originals. Ah, gotta love the drama of a sitcom. andalitebandit-6, I'm glad you like the little mind convo, thought it might be funny to you guys so I put it in last minuet. And yes, the teasing will commence shortly enough. And yes! You will have to play my little waiting game! Hopefully you won't have to wait long. On a lighter note, I was able to get my Dib Sim pregnant….twice! Yes, he is a guy on the Sims. He was abducted by aliens! Woo!……on with the incredibly short chapter!)

The Alters looked down from the top of the building in disbelief.

"Did I just see what I think I just saw?" whispered Alter Dib.

"I think so…" said Alter Zim.

"Put 'em together and watch the fur fly…or watch the lovers squabble…" whispered Kumi jokingly.

"Heh, not one of the more graceful times to confess their love." Mocked Alter Zim, feign swooning into Alter Dibs arms.

"If I remember correctly, you two didn't choose the most opportune times to confess your love either…" whispered Kumi blankly. Alter Dib and Alter Zim always chose the near-death situations to say something. 'I think it all started when they were 18, 19-ish…what was it again? Oh, yeah, it was one of those demon dog attacks…' she thought. Surprisingly enough, the demons had gotten to this world way before Evil Dib showed up. But the demon that were here, were mostly higher demons, like Kumi. They were able to keep a fairly human disguise, except for a few choice ears or fangs. When Evil Dib had come, he brought the lower demons to this world, and it was them that started its destruction. Up until then, the lower demons had kept themselves secluded from the humans and higher demons.

"You guys remember the demon dog incident? Doncha? she whispered slyly.

Both Alter Dib and Alter Zim blushed.

"Um…what are you getting at?" asked Alter Dib.

"I think she's brining up a similar situation that pertain to us…" said Alter Zim.

"I knew you'd never let us live that down…" said Alter Dib.

325 decided to stay out of the conversation. You tend to learn more by eavesdropping. XD

"And that other time with the flying space cabbages…" continued Kumi.

Alter Dib groaned, "Ok, we get it…"

"Oh, but I could go on and on…" said Kumi, giving an evil smile. "Shall we bug them, or let it escalate first?"

"I say let it go somewhere first." said Alter Zim, "That way we can really bug the hell out of them."

Back on the ground…

Both Dib and Zim were sitting in silence. Both thinking of their own issues…sorta…

Surprisingly enough, both couldn't stop thinking about that damn kiss…Zim kept replaying the dream inside his head, trying to figure it out.

'How could it have been a premonition? How could that be? Was that odd dream transplanted into my head during the night? But on the other hand, unlike the dream, I'm the one who kissed the Dib beast…it was quite nice in fact. Though it wasn't exactly like the dream, it still felt the same.' He continued to ponder the whole situation. He had seen things like this happen in those horrible movies gir watches. Two mortal enemies fall in love and everything becomes happy-go-lucky. But that one movie…Romeo and Juliet? Yes, that movie ended up in both lovers dieing for the cause…Zim had no intention of dieing for the cause, whatever that may be. But there's no law that says he has to. And there's no law that says he can't fall in love with the Dib. Only the unwritten law of the universe…Aw, screw it. He's gonna go and do his own thing from now on.

Dib was also thinking about the kiss. (Didn't I already say that?) It seemed like for the first time in his entire life, for those fee brief seconds, he was happy. And the first time he's seen Zim show affection for anyone, if it truly was affection…

'Why do you have to be so proud? Why can't you just come out and say that you at least like me a little?' thought Dib. 'It would probably make this whole experience go a lot smoother…' A little uncomfortable, and unknowing of what kind of reaction he would get out of Zim, he scotched over to him until they were shoulder to shoulder. Dib leaned his head on Zim's shoulder. He was very tempted to touch Zim's antenna, but he thought he might try that a little later. Zim just sat there, probably too deep in thought to even notice.

And once again, the Alter placed bets on what they think would happen….

Zim finally noticed the warmth and weight on his shoulder. Dib was just sitting there quietly. What did he want? Usually with humans, (or occasionally gir…) this was a sign of affection for when they want something…

"What do you want?" asked Zim in a slightly husky voice. There was no reply from Dib for a little while.

"Nothing…" said Dib, "Just to be close to you…"

'Great,' thought Zim, 'Things are already starting snowball…' he didn't push Dib away, yes he didn't open up to him either. Oddly enough, just Dib's presence was somewhat comforting. But now he felt a very strange tingly sensation coming from his antenna. Dib was starting to play with his antenna. This made Zim uncomfortable, but in a good way, ya know? Whatever Dib was doing, he was doing a good job of it, because not long after he started, he got Zim to purr. Not to mention blushing a little.

Dib smiled and continued playing with Zim's antenna, "You know, you're cute when you blush."

"Mmm…nerr…." purred Zim softly. He was almost in a world of ecstasy. Then he realized what was going on. "Rrrrr…hey…hey! Stop that…" said Zim, holding down his antenna down, still blushing a bit.

"Aw, why? It's so much fun." said Dib with a small smile.

"Yes…and it's only going to get better…" came a hiss

Everyone seemed to whip their heads around to see who it was that was talking. 732 stood tall on a nearby building. He laughed at the sight of their shock.

"This time, I won't be leaving empty handed…" he hissed. He reviled a gun and pointed it where the Alters were. He fired three shots, 325 taking every last one of them, so that nothing would happen to the Alters. But they weren't bullets, oh, no. They were tranquilizers, and 325 fell off the building unconscious. He landed onto the ground and stirred up a small cloud of debris. "Who's next?"

(Ok, I'm sure you all hate me for my cliffhanger, but too bad. This can only go from bad to worse now, and eventually snowball out of control. And it seems to be doing that quite nicely don't ya think? Well, until I decide to up date. Ta Ta!)
