:D Wheeee! This chapter is really short and pretty much a filler but get over it, because the next chapter is Zim's act! XD XD XD

I once again found myself glaring into my food. Today it was an unidentifiable mush. I stabbed it with a spork and pretended it was Dib's face. I felt a grim satisfaction from the violence and impaled the mystery food again and again. I smirked bitterly at the mutilated food on my plate. I wish I could do that to Dib's head, but I knew that if I did I would regret it later. I still loved him but Irk was I PISSED.

He had lied to me so blatantly just to try and get information. I had almost revealed that I wanted him. Yet even though the boy was extraordinarily smart he had not understood my actions. Sometimes I questioned his common sense. I wiped my spork off with a napkin and was going to set it on my tray when a certain someone came to sit down by me. I looked up at him with a harsh glare and stabbed him in the abdomen with my spork.

"YEOUCH!" Dib yelled. "What was that for?"

"If you think you are sitting with me today Dib-thing you are sadly mistaken." I hissed. Gaz sat down across from me, but I didn't care. She hadn't done anything to me yet.

"I told you I was sorry." He whined, looking away. "And that really hurt."

"Words mean nothing to me." I lied. Words meant a lot to me. "And it hurt when I discovered you were lying to me." I knew I was making him feel guilty inside by his expression. Dib was an open book.

"Fine… What do you want me to do?" He said grouchily.

"I'm not just going to give you the answer. Figure it out." I had no idea what I wanted him to do. Really I didn't want anything. I just wanted to stop feeling bad about him lying to me. Dib set his tray on the table and got down on his knees. Clasping his hands together and looking up at me a heartbroken expression he began to beg.

"Please Zim!" He implored. "I'm so sorry I lied to you. I really am." He continued telling me how sorry he was. It was somewhat comical, yet at the same time I knew he really was sorry for lying. He was just a curious human after all.

"The amazing Zim has decided to forgive you for your lies and will not invoke his insidious wrath upon you." I smiled. "Now come sit by me Dib and enjoy you foodenings." He got up off the floor grinning and sat a little bit too close to me. I enjoyed it immensely and continued stabbing my food.

I watched the clock excitedly, kicking my boots against the basket of my desk. Three… Two… One! YES! I rushed eagerly out of the room towards the gym. It was audition time and I was ecstatic. Running down the hall, I skidded to a stop in front of the gym door and yanked on the handle.

"Rrr, RAH! GRRR! IT WON'T OPEN!" I yelled pulling on the handle harder. I put a foot on the wall on either side of the door and pulled with all my might. A small freshman girl with a violin was watching me intently. I leaned my head back without letting go and she smiled.

"It's push, not pull." She said sweetly.

I got down and pushed on the door and it opened easily.

"Erm… I knew that! I'm just… dramatic." I said before dashing in.

I looked around warily and saw three teachers sitting in the bleachers, each with a clipboard. There was a microphone in the middle of the gym. I walked over to it cautiously. I wasn't used to having an audience.

"And what is your name?" One of the female teachers asked kindly.

"Zim…" I said into the microphone. It echoed loudly and I cracked a small smile.

"Begin whenever you're ready, dear." She smiled and nodded. The other teachers smiled and nodded to.

I took a deep breath and began.

"YESSSSS!" I yelled running down the hall with the piece of paper in my hand. I had gotten in the Talent Show and my act would be last. This is exactly what I had wanted. I didn't want to be last because I was nervous though, it was for dramatic effect. Dancing down the hall I shouted my victory.

"VICTORY FOR ZIIIIIIM!" I shouted running down the steps and tripping over something.

"AHHHHH!" I yelled, but luckily I landed in a convenient patch of grass.

"Oh my god, are you okay?" I didn't think you were going to trip over me." I head Dib call. He must have been waiting.

"I'm fine, Dib. The awesomeness that is Zim is fine." I said dusting off my uniform.

"Oh… How'd the audition go?" He asked curiously. I grinned excitement renewed.

"I got in! VICTORY FOR ZIM!" I yelled again.

"That's great!" He said enthusiastically. "What part of the show are you in?"

"I'm last." I declared happily. I was glad Dib had waited for me, it was not something that I had been expecting.

"Last?" He asked confused?

"Yes, Dib. LAST. The show is tomorrow morning, so I guess you don't have much longer to wait." I smiled and left him there confused, once more.

At the door to my house I saw a package and I squealed excitedly. I picked it up and ran inside. Slicing open the box I saw my costume for tomorrow.

"Oooooooo." GIR said. "YOU'RE GONNA BE A HOTTIE!"

I laughed and stripped to try it on. I smiled at the effect it had. I did look hot. Tomorrow it will all change. I thought. Tomorrow all hell may break loose.

I am aware that I said there would be more auditions on Friday, but I don't care. It messes with the story so the Talent Show is on Friday. :)
