WARNING: This is depressing and includes ZaDr!
Um... Yeah, that's all I have to say. ;
Present
A gun pressed to his temple and a dark chuckle from the human told him something was wrong.
When an Irken came out the door of the small hut, a minor panic set in. He wanted to tell Dib to run, but the cool metal of the barrel prevented him from turning his head. It was Zim, this was serious!
The Irken cooed, however and the gun shifted a bit.
"Any one follow?"
"No," replied the human, "I made sure we're alone."
What?
"Good Dib-stink!"
It suddenly dawned on the Captain.
No.
No no no no no!
He had promised himself that he would never trust anyone that asked for it again! The Irken's had betrayed him years ago… But since he was on the Resisty's ship, had he thought he was safe? Dib had made him swear his trust to him.
But…
He ended up giving Dib more than just trust, he fell for him and HARD.
"We'll hand him over and the Tallest will have no choice but to accept us."
And, as tends to happen, his worst fears came true. The Irken used its pak legs to find its way into Dib's open arm. They kissed and the Irken cooed more, the Vortian only turned his head slightly to see what was happening.
The Irken giggled, but Dib's face showed no sign of amusement. "Can we just get this over with already?"
"Yeah, yeah."
He had trusted Dib more than his other crew members. He had agreed to go on an abandoned planet that Dib had thought… that Dib had TOLD him was….
But that doesn't matter anymore.
The Vortian looked back at the ground, his horns pressed tightly to his head. This was more than just self-hate and embarrassment now. It was a pain unlike any other.
Zim quickly ran back into the house, probably to call the Tallest immediately and tell them of his victory.
Zim's victory over the stupid, immature and naïve Vortian.
So naïve.
"If it makes you feel any better," Why did he still feel attached to Dib's voice? "I really did like you."
Still staring at the ground, hands softly fumbling together in attempt at self-comfort, he replied quietly, "Why would that make me feel better?"
The human laughed bitterly and gently stroked one of his horns, sending a shockwave through the Vortian. He gasped and turned his head away from Dib.
"God, you are cute though."
