Suddenly I have Marvin Gaye singing in the background when I read your comment, Invader Johnny.

Yes, Red is a piece of work, Everclear.

To the person who said that Zim is an American Greeting card on acid... Yes, you are exactly right there.

Tak was wandering around town on her own just to get her bearings and to get out of the house while Dib was often in and out of the house doing Tallest knows what. She knew eventually she would have to do something for a living or perhaps make counterfeit money like she use to in order to survive. She could just revive the Weenie Empire again, but on a smaller scale perhaps. Perhaps. She knew she couldn't sponge off Dib forever although there were some times she liked how he glanced in her direction, but it was often brief before he went completely unreadable.

Approaching towards a building she remembered still being down as she headed back, she stopped in her tracks to see that the building looked like it was brand new. Tak was confused as she stood there staring at it ignoring the cat calls her way. When did that happen? She was by here last week and it was still dismantled. Hearing more calls her way, she walked off to head back. Going through the front door, she knew he was home since his keys were in the bowl by the door. He wasn't in the kitchen, he was possibly in the lab, an area she hadn't been allowed to go into still, so she went upstairs to find him in his bedroom hair wet, and working on his computer.

"Hey. Enjoy your walk?" Dib asked as he continued to stare at his monitor.

"Yes." Coming in she stopped next to him taking in his scent. "How did your father's lab look like it didn't get destroyed?"

"Found something in the building that my dad invented. My dad has done so many explosions in there that it made sense that he would build something to restore the building back to normal." Turning to face her, he smiled at her choice of outfit. "Got all the stuff out of storage today and had it all moved in. Re-hired all the staff that was still living. Seeing with my dad's old reputation, my dads genes within me because hey, I'm his clone. I will be cutting between real science and also my other passions."

"Good for you." Tak said.

"Is there a problem?" He asked standing up.

She wished he would stop wearing shorts half the time. It wasn't bad, it was distracting to her. "No, I'm fine."

"You hungry?"

"Yeah."

"Good, come on." Taking her hand, he walked her out of the room. "Let me change into something else."

"What? You don't want to keep those shorts on?" Tak asked flirtatiously before startling herself.

Dib furrowed his brow. "Naw. Be right out."

Closing the door gently that separated them, Tak was curious how he grown before shaking the thoughts out of her head. She can't afford to be so weak, she was still an Irken. She was still thinking when he exited out of his room with his customary trench on, and covered all up again. He didn't say anything to her, but he pretty much told her to follow him. Putting her disguise back on, they exited the house, and went for a walk back into town.

"Exactly where are we going?" She wondered.

"Seeing that you have grown a tolerance to some foods in the short time here, there is a place that did re-open. Let me just say I didn't feel like cooking tonight." Dib's attitude was almost flippant as he walked along.

Tak examined everything around him before she settled on some glances from random females scattered here and there as they walked. They appreciated what they were looking at when he passed. She almost snarled at them, but stopped herself knowing full well he didn't belong to her.

Approaching the restaurant, there were people there, and when they spotted him they greeted him with lots of hello's and thank you's. Tak noticed he had a polite face on him, but he was embarrassed over all even as some comely girl came running up to him hugging him.

"Dib! So glad to see you again. How have you been?"

"I'm okay, Gretch. How are you?"

"I found my mom. Dib, my mom is alive. Want to say hi to her? I told her how you saved us." Without another word, she pulled him along to a table to point to an older woman that looked like her.

Tak grimaced at how the girl kept touching him. Dib was smiling a bit more at both of them making Tak more uncomfortable in there as more people surrounded him. She didn't belong here. She didn't belong anywhere as she turned to leave hugging herself against the sudden cold that hit her as she watched others run in to the place. Breathing hard, she needed to get out of here.

Dib always wanted to be a hero so long ago, but all this was so strange to him. Weird. Everyone was patting him on the back when he knew the one who truly sacrificed themselves was, Gaz. Suddenly he felt alone. In a room filled with people, he was alone as he glanced around to find Tak missing. He had to excuse himself as he went out to try to locate her. He glanced all around him till he located her far up ahead in the park. Head down as she walked. He always knew her walk.

Tak was walking when she heard the sound of running behind her. Alert, she turned to face whomever would dare try to attack her, but relaxed when it was Dib. "I thought you were hungry."

He sneered at that remark. "I'd rather not be in there surrounded by all those people like that. I found you missing so I had to find you."

"Well you found me. You know I can take care of myself."

"Uh huh." Dib wasn't convinced. "Tell me at least what your thinking about."

"I won't take over the planet, but I know I need to get on my own two feet again. I'm alone on a planet that hates my kind. I can't stay with you much longer because I don't want to be a burden." Tak was harsh as she blurted this all out. "Thanks for taking me in and letting me wear these clothes, but I'm a burden when I never was before."

"You aren't a burden to me and there is no way no one will find out about you from me, Tak."

Stepping back, she was ready to bolt. "I see the way you act around me. Yes, you try to be nice, but you can't stand looking at me for more then a second." She was so pathetic.

"It isn't what you think. I don't look at you because of my own personal reasons, Tak. Not because of you." Dib saw how she stood, how she tensed up, did she really think he didn't know what she was planning right now?

Hearing cat calls from across the park, she sneered. "What the hell is with the men on this planet thinking that is the way to get a female?"

Dib glanced in that direction as he spotted 7 men checking her out. Boy, they had no clue who they would be messing with. "I could say they were dropped on their heads far too many times as babies, but I've met intelligent people who have been dropped on their heads as babies. They are just plain assholes."

"Although I'm sure one of them would want me to room with them."

Dib was surprised she said that as he stepped forward. "Did you just hear yourself?" He asked in disbelief. "Yeah one of them would want that, but keep using someone who is far more worth it then their own useless lives. Are you serious?"

"I was humiliated more then anything on the Massive, Dib. They accessed my pak to get all my memories to see if I was truly a traitor. They saw US in the act, Dib. I'm not ashamed I did that with you, but I didn't want it seen. For my station and rank I'm not allowed to mate, so what I did was against the rules." Hearing more cat calls, she snarled. "Oh what I got on that bridge was Purple barfing, Red making comments, and others too. I swear the only one polite in that whole part was Zim. ZIM!" Tak had to stomp away from the cat callers before she killed them so they both started walking back towards the direction of his house.

"What did he do exactly?"

"They wanted to kill me quickly. He decided to place me in that cell with those people you trained. Still a good job training them. While in there before Zim came back one of the guards leaned in near me to proposition me. I got labeled a traitor and a prostitute. Funny how you get labeled the second thing when you are with one guy once. Zim found out about that as he was helping carrying me away. He heard him say something to him making Zim grab him by the throat. I know he did it because your sister agreeing to marriage to save this place would mean that our own kind would label her like that." Tak explained. "You both were already public enemy number one, and to see me with one of them... Well, I got some lude remarks from Red. Those I know Zim or Purple didn't hear."

Dib halted in his steps placing his hand on her shoulder. "I really am sorry that happened to you, Tak." She shrugged. "I need to ask something. Something that isn't glossing what happened to you. Are they going to do the same thing with Zim when it comes to my sister?"

Tak had to remember the old rules regarding mating outside your own species when you follow the rules like Zim. "Zim is a Tallest now. He married outside his species so that means he will unfortunately have to allow the Control Brains to access his pak to see that their marriage is consummated. It is only a one time deal. Once they see it is, they won't do it again."

Dib sat down on the nearest thing he came across thinking of that ordeal for her. "Oh she wouldn't be happy about that."

"I am not a fan of Zim, but you and I both know he's possessive over his things. He won't allow them to see much more. I have a feeling her private areas will be kept private for him only." Tak said softly to him.

Covering his face, he frowned. "Somehow that isn't making me feel better." Thinking of what everyone else seen, he looked up at her. "Did they see everything on me?"

"Seeing that I didn't think that someone would access my pak like that because my own hormones were going crazy at the time we were talking... Well yeah they saw everything, Dib."

Groaning, he stood up. "Great, just great."

"For a human, I find you very attractive."

Dib was bitching and moaning so much he barely heard her speak, he did hear her walking away from him again making him stop her. "Not mad at you." He had no clue what to say about her comment to him though so instead he said, "Work for me. We can be in separate areas, but maybe it'll help. I know you like building things. I've seen what you've done."

Smiling, Tak actually liked that idea. "Better then another weenie stand."

"Far better and less smellier." Dib agreed. "By the way, I'm still starving."

"Same here."

"Let us get home then."

A human for a boss. Her life is just one thing after another she mused while she looked down at her feet to see his coat swaying behind him as he walked. One day she would have to look in his closet to see how many of those things he had.

The lab was fully set up, Dib showed Tak where she was going to work a few days before. It felt good to be productive again, and Dib was not over her shoulder compared to some dip that kept asking her what she was doing. Dib kept reminding her that yes she may of been to sections of space that no one has ever dreamed of yet, but it was her job to also enlighten them. Tak was surprised he laughed when she said she wouldn't mind enlightening him with a nice hit in the middle of his ugly face. Although she noticed he did change a lot more then she could put her finger on at the moment.

Standing in the closet of his parents bedroom, she was contemplating what to wear on her first day. As an invader you have your uniform. In this job, she was allowed to have something else on under her lab coat. "Sorry, can't decide. Guess I am turning human after all." Tak felt his presence over her shoulder.

"Don't worry about it. We have plenty of time." Looking around, it felt like forever since he was in there as he stepped past her.

She studied what he was wearing to notice he was wearing black dress slacks and a dark blue shirt. As he glanced around the closet, she was admiring how the back of those pants looked. She really had to stop this since he wasn't interested.

"Will never wear these things my dad loved wearing. Too heavy and too cumbersome." Dib mentioned picking at that fabric before turning around spotting something. "This will match your eyes perfectly."

"Are you turning into a girl, Dib?" Tak teased watching him pull out a purple dress that looked nice. "Huh, never noticed that one."

"Surprised you never moved any of these clothes into Gaz's room."

Taking the dress to examine it, she said, "Because it is still her room." Feeling the fabric it was the softest thing she ever felt. "I'm still a guest here."

Dib almost corrected her but he decided to excuse himself so she could dress. He waited for her outside the room when she came out. He knew she would be in disguise soon, but the combination of her natural eyes and that dress were beautiful together along with her natural skin color. It was the most feminine thing he saw her wear even though he had seen her several times with a dress on, but this one looked beautiful on her.

Approaching her, he smiled. "It looks perfect on you." She blushed? Did her cheeks actually turn a different color? Reaching out, he touched her cheek. "It compliments you so well, Tak."

Her lips parted listening to him speak and touch her. She was turning weak, wasn't she? Being reduced to a puddle over mere words and a touch. She found her upper back leaning against the closed door as he came nearer simply towering over her. "What you're wearing lo-looks good on you too."

His eyes did another once over on her taking his time roving over everything before glancing a bit away in annoyance when he heard his cell ring. Not daring to step away from her, he picked up the phone to see who it was, and unfortunately had to answer it. "Yes?" Pause. "Don't touch that until I'm in since it isn't ready." Pause.

Tak noticed that as he spoke to whomever on the phone, his hand started to roam down the length of her body making her breath out and him smirk at her slight reaction. Watching him still talk, his eyes never looked away from hers as he bent slightly to continue feeling down her legs. Putting her head back against the door she really found herself leaning more into the door as she felt his hand move back up. She gasped, covering her mouth to supress herself while he grinned wickedly at her as he slid a finger inside her. Teasing her. She closed her eyes, lips parting feeling his finger now moving in and out of her. She moved against him as tiny moans escaped her lips. Feeling him slide out, she opened her eyes to watch him taste her. Did the person over the phone hear any of this? Removing his finger from his mouth, he slid it back inside of her. How was he able to control himself?

"Irving. Look, I really will talk about all of this when I make it in. I'll be in at 11am because a meeting just popped up." Pause. "Yes, I'll see you then. Bye." Dib shut the phone off and tossed it on the hallway table before quickly lifting her up in his arms to carry her to his room.

Stepping into his room, he placed her down to hungrily crush his mouth over hers, reaching back to unzip her dress. Tak was almost clawing open the buttons on his shirt taking it off, but he was faster as he removed the dress, and pushed her on the bed covering her. There was no complaints from her even when he practically ripped her panties off and instantly started tasting her there. He smiled against her as she moaned and whimpered out. He had a feeling his bed was going to be thrashed from those claws of hers because all he heard was tearing. Glancing up, he grinned at how she looked prompting him to quickly stand up to remove his own clothing.

Tak was panting when she realized she was suddenly empty down there. Glancing up she watched him undress in front of her. He really grew in so many pleasant ways that she couldn't wait to experience him. "Dib."

Dib took her all in, she was beautiful to him. Exotic. She was rough around the edges but that was hot to him. He pushed her legs open enjoying that smile of hers and pushed inside of her so hard she let out a huge cry out.

"More, Dib" She begged.

He granted it enjoying each sound she made and how she felt under him. It was so many years and days of repression being let out for him. Since she had been stranded on Earth, he even tried to fight his urges towards her, but today he couldn't stop anymore.

Tak was bold as she hooked her legs over both of his shoulders. She wanted to feel everything thing of him. He was so much stronger then before. At times she had a hard time breathing, but it was worth it.

Dib was holding back now, he didn't wish to release yet. Watching her mouth open and close. Seeing those teeth of hers, he removed one leg from his shoulder to come nearer to her face to kiss her. He wanted to feel that tongue against his own.

Tak pulled back, her eyes softened. "Don't stop this, Dib."

Was she begging him? He almost did knowing he wasn't fully himself still even though he desired her. His only response was getting on his knees, grabbing her by the legs and continue his ministrations.

Glancing at the time, she hoped they had plenty of time. Seeing that they did, she grinned up at him, and flipped him onto his back straddling him.

"Tak." Taking her by the hips, Dib chuckled at her demand while lifting himself on his knees and bouncing her on top of him.

Tak thought of this as the best backfired plan ever in her life as she cried out his name over and over again before her eventual release. She became a little relaxed after, but he still continued as she laid on top of him still mewling away.

"You've been the only one I've ever been with, Tak." Dib stated softly releasing in her. He enjoyed how she moaned against him. He enjoyed the tiny kisses she gave him along with the touches.

"You've been the only one too, Dib." She whispered feeling like putty.

He really should of done this at night so he could of had her laying on him like this all day. She was so light. Now he has to wait a whole work day in order to have her again.

Dibby needed some loving.
