Chapter Notes

Disclaimers: I don't own Invader Zim

Author's Notes: So Chapter 12! Yes, we're on a roll!

(Present day)

[Location: Still stranded somewhere]

His clothes were dry by dawn...

Dib pulled them on quickly, Zim would be up soon, and he didn't want things to get more awkward then it already had! Like that was possible!

"Morning worm!" Zim said walking into his view. Thankfully he too was clothed, however that didn't stop Dib from blushing.

"Are you still going on about last night?" Zim asked.

"Of course, not!" Dib exclaimed.

Zim knew he was lying in an instant, but they had more important matters to attend to. "We need to find a way home."

Suddenly a helicopter appeared out of nowhere, it was really close to the ground, and Dib gasped, for as soon as it touched down his sister stepped out.

"GAZ!" Dib ran to her, his embarrassment gone in an instant, just by the sight of her. They embrace, much to Dib's surprise; the two siblings hadn't hugged since their mom died. "Gaz...I-" Dib began, trying to find the words; but Gaz cut him off.

"Don't you ever do that to me again!" She snapped.

"I...I won't" He stammered. "I promise."

"So, it's baby sister to the rescue?" Zim asked. "Where's your dad?"

"Where he always is!" Gaz snapped. "At work!"

Dib winced.

"I am very mad at both of you." She said to Dib.

"Gaz, Zim saved my life." Dib said defensively. Sure, he hated the guy, and maybe, just maybe he was sexually attracted to him in some weird, and twisted way. But the guy did save his life, and that meant he was entitled to some sort of defense.

"Not you and him." Gaz snapped. "You and DAD!"

"Oh." Dib said. "Did he at least look worried?"

"I told him, but I don't even think he was listening; he probably didn't even hear a word I said!" Gaz growled.

Dib's frown grew. His dad had no idea he was in a shipwreck and nearly died! And as much as that angered him, Dib had grown numb towards his father's neglected ways years ago. Gaz on the other hand, never stood for it, and the older they got; the more she was at their dad's throat about it!

"Come on." Gaz said. "The whole town is looking for you two, I need to call off the search, and get you both to a hospital." The three loaded into the helicopter, and took off back to civilization.

Zim looked to Dib, his brow rose in suspicion. The Dib wasn't acting like himself, the boy was quiet; staring at his hands. 'It's probably some form of human shock.' He concluded. 'We did go through a lot yesterday.'

However, what Zim didn't know was that the only thing that Dib was replaying in his mind about last night was that dream. Every time he looked at Zim he saw them kissing, and groping each other in his mind. And as sickening as it was, Dib had to admit: it was turning him on!

'This can't be good.' He thought. And unfortunately for him he couldn't be more right!

(Three weeks later...)

[In Dib's Dreams...AGAIN!]

Dib moans loudly as his enemy grinds up against his naked body once again.

He knows this is wrong, that he shouldn't like it; but he does! Their bodies are exposed, unclothes, as the two enemies grind up against each other on Dib's bed! It's sickening, and yet Dib groans, and begs for more. "Zim please stop teasing me."

"I'll stop when I'm good and ready." Zim said firmly, but there was laughter in his eyes. He was enjoying this!

Dib squirmed beneath him, wanting more.

"You love being mine don't you Dib." Zim whispered in his ear.

Dib doesn't answer, but he doesn't need to; they both already know... He did love it, he loved the thrill of doing naughty things with this monster. "Zim please." He moaned.

"Well since you asked so sweetly." Zim mused. "I'll put you out of your misery." And with those words fresh on Dib's mind, the Irken lined his member up with the boy's entrance, and thrust all the way in...

[Back to Reality!]

Dib woke up screaming... "Not again!" He whispered, he clutched his sheets close to his naked body, trying to shake the dream off. No good! It would appear life wanted to torture him for living!

"Dib stop screaming and get up already, the bus will be here any minute!" Gaz's voice called from down stairs.

Dib's eyes fall on his alarm clock, it is than that he notices the time. "7:20! The bus!" It would be there in five minutes. Dib throws on his clothes from the day before and rushes down stairs.

His Father and Gaz are waiting for him.

Dib groaned. "I'm not doing this Gaz." He snapped.

"Dib." Gaz growled.

Dib rolled his eyes, ever since he and Zim were released for the hospital the day after their rescue; Gaz had been trying to get dad to show him some kind of support. However, Dib was dodging both their efforts.

"Dib, please just..." Gaz began.

"No, he didn't come see me until I was back home!" Dib snapped.

His father says nothing!

"Is your job really more important than your own son?" Dib screamed.

For a moment, his father looks regretful, he goes to say something; but his phone rings.

"Don't you dare answer that!" Gaz growled.

"I'm sorry, but I have to." Membrane says.

"Fine just go!" Dib snapped. "That's the only thing you're good at: Abandoning us! So just go!"

Gaz watched as Dib stormed off outside, no doubt he was headed for the bus stop. "Great going dad!" She yelled, before taking off after him.

[Following Dib...]

"I can't believe him right now!" Dib screamed, as they reached the bus stop, just outside their home. "It's like he doesn't even care that I almost died!" he thought he had grown numb to his father's neglect, but it would appear he was wrong.

"I'm sorry Dib." Gaz admitted.

Dib winced, Gaz had been more protective of him since she found him. However, after how they lost their mother he couldn't blame her. "Hey look I'm fine, it's over."

"Are you sure?" Gaz asked, as the bus pulled up.

"Actually..." Dib looked at the bus unsure. "I think I'm going to walk." He told her.

"Dib." Gaz insisted.

"I hate the way they stare at me." Dib whispered, and then turned away, walking towards the school.

Gaz follows him in silence all the way!

[At School...]

Everything was different now….

Dib hid his face with his locker door as Zim passed by, he was doing his best to avoid the Irken. He thought some distance would help the dreams go away. It doesn't work, instead the dreams only get worse.

Zim knows, Dib is there hiding, but he doesn't bother trying to talk to him. After all he wanted a way to get the kid out of his hair, and he finally was! Still, he had to admit that he kind of missed his little human nascence. After all now that he had come to realize it, the mission was no fun without someone trying to at least stand in his way. Now all Dib did was just stare at him, and blush.

"Hi Zim." Zita said walking up to him smiling.

Zim forced a smile, but all he really wanted to do was tell her to buzz off. When he and Dib arrived to the hospital a bunch of reporters came, and asked a bunch of questions. Zim only answered them so they would go away. Only, to find out the next day that a news report about their survival interrupted every show in town. Zim told the Reporters how he managed to swim himself, and a very hypothermic Dib to shore, and kept him warm so he'd survive till morning.

Now it was all over the news, and just like that Zim was the most popular kid in school, everyone wanted to be his friend! In some ways, this helped the mission, he was becoming more a part of the enemy's society. However, it was also bad, because now everyone wanted the scoop that was Zim! Reporters, neighbors, crazed fan girls; they all wanted to know everything about him. He no longer had any privacy!

Dib bit his lip, as he watched the subject of his torment go, Zim was just moving on like nothing ever happened, and he was going Alien sex crazy! And Zim's new look wasn't helping! Dib moaned, ever since the press got so hooked up on him, Zim got paranoid and changed his image. He no longer wears his Irken uniform. Instead he wears a long sleeve shirt with pink and black strips, then he had a red T-shirt over that for good measure. He also replaced his old wig with a shaggier hair do, like most teenage boys had these days. Finally, he wears some black jeans, and sneakers.

Zim was wearing Sneakers! And what was Dib doing?

Drooling over his enemy's new look! 'He does look pretty hot now though.' He admitted to himself.

Wait what?

"NO!" he whispered, banging his head against his locker, he hit a sharp pick of it, and suddenly he's bleeding.

"Dib's acting weird again." Zita whispered, to Zim, and some of her friends.

"Zita, Dib's been through a lot." Gretchen reminded her.

"Oh, right sorry." Zita whispered, suddenly looking guilty.

"You know I hear his father didn't even come see if he was okay." One of Zita's friends, a blond girl named Trina said.

"Maybe that's what's wrong." Gretchen said. "Zim will you go talk to him."

Zim winced, looking unsure.

"Look he's only pushing you away because he wants to pretend it never happened. Its classic survival remorse." Trina said.

"He needs you Zim." Zita said, "You're the only other person who was there, only you can relate."

"Okay." Zim, said giving in. it wasn't like he had much of a choice, the Reporters had spies all over the school. They'd pay his classmates cheap money to take notes on his actions all day at school. So, he had no choice, the humans gave him a role to play, and for the sake of the mission he had to play it!

Dib tensed as Zim approached him. "What are you doing worm?" Zim snapped.

"Nothing!" Dib said closing his locker really fast.

"You've been acting weird lately." Zim pointed out the obvious.

"No...No I haven't." Dib stuttered.

"Is this about what happened?" Zim asked. Dib goes tomato red.

"NO!" he exclaims.

"Than what Dib?" Zim snapped.

"I..." Dib began.

"You are bleeding!" Zim suddenly exclaimed.

"I am?" Dib put a finger to his forehead, and there was indeed blood there. "Oh..." he whispered. "I ran into my locker door."

Zim smiled. "Idiotic human." He mused.

Dib looked down at his feet, he couldn't look him in the eyes.

"Are you sure you're okay?" Zim asked, looking a bit worried.

"Why do you care?" Dib asked.

Zim grabbed his arm, and forced him to walk with him towards their first class. "Because there are literally spies' everywhere, Reporters are on my tail Dib, trying to expose the real me. I have a role to play, and why aren't you trying to expose me to the world. This is like your perfect chance."

Dib knew he was right, and he probably would agree if he wasn't stressing over the fact that Zim was now pulling him by the hand to class!

They were holding hands!

Zim suddenly let's go as they reach the door, "Try not to panic." He said.

"Wait why?" Dib mumbled.

"Cause I just remembered we have a quiz today!"

Dib was now officially ready to murder himself!
