I grabbed my bag and walked out the door. "Bye." As I closed the door I noticed a figure standing on my lawn. It was Dib. "Well, good morning," I said.

"Oh, uh, hi." He seemed startled. "I just kinda thought we could walk to skool together since Gaz doesn't want to walk with me," he suggested.

"Um, sure," I replied. He smiled. When he did, I noticed his ears moved. I laughed. Now that I saw him in daylight, I thought he was kinda cute.

"We have a new student. Everyone this is Rose," the teacher announced. "Now, Rose, if you have anything to say, say it now. I don't want to hear anything else out of you."

"Well, don't piss me off," I stated calmly. "And that's about it." I, then, was instructed to my seat…across from Dib. Zim sat in front of me.

As I walked to my seat, some kid laughed. I gave him a death look and he became scared. I sat down.

"Be careful, Rose, like I said, Zim's an alien."

"I know Dib," I wasn't too sure about the whole 'alien' thing but I played along anyway.

At lunch, Dib sat across from me. "I like your eyes," he said. "They're beautiful."

"Thank you," I replied. We talked for a while.

Class started again. It was boring. No one even paid attention…not even me. Dib and I were talking…again.

When skool was over, Dib walked me home. I wonder what happened to Gaz. Whatever, she's not my sister.

Claire greeted me with a hug. I never really did like her that much, but it's not my fault my father married her. I had no choice. She treats me like a baby. And she wondered why I was always against her.
