Zim POV (Finally a change and throughout the story)

Before the incident-

I was thinking of some way to make the Dib-human be on my side.

It would be difficult for the Dib not to join me since he's too focused on 'saving the world' shenanigans.

So, one day, I decided to make his bad day worse and let him see the truth.

Only, I didn't know that I made it worth less than it already was...

On that day, I insulted him so much that I knew he would break.

However, that wasn't the result I wanted, not at all...

Once I heard Dib say all those things, I tried speaking to him, but he shoved me out of the way and left.

I ran off to my base as soon as I knew that he wasn't coming back.

He can't give up! He can't give up on me, the great Zim! I thought, skin burning because of the stupid acid rain.

Once I arrived at my base, I burst out, "Dib doesn't want to talk to me anymore!"

Gir was watching his usual Angry Monkey on the TV when he heard me.

"What?" Gir asked, not understanding what I'm talking about.

"Gir, Mary doesn't want to talk to me anymore!" I said, trying to make sense in Gir's 'language.'

"Why not?" Gir asked in his usual tone.

"Because... Because I did something to make him extremely mad at me," I told him, hugging him.

"So, what now?" He asked, hugging me back.

"For once, Gir, I don't know..." I said, voice trailing off.

We stayed like this for the rest of the day, moving around the couch to watch TV, or something else.

I didn't bother to shout at Gir when he made such a mess, but my mind did wander over to the Dib.

How I finally ruined my chance to make him into a bad guy...

How I ruined a chance into a truce...

How I ruined the chance to make him mine...

I have ruined the chance to have Dib by my side to have Urth at my hand.

I looked outside, still seeing the rain pouring like 'cats and dogs?'

I will never understand human me-TI-phors.

I turned back to see Gir still watching Angry Monkey, not that it bothered me before.

I looked up to see the roof and sighed.

What have I done..?

After the incident-

Timeskip, a few days later

I walked away from the Dib's house since he slammed it in front of my face.

It was more times than I could count for.

Sure, he still talks to me, but most of the time, he just ignores me.

I get that I made him who he is right now, but I'm worried.

This kind of attitude isn't the same as Dib before.

I liked Dib before with all his flaws, strengths, and weakness.

Why did I have to go this far? I thought, walking home sadly.

When I went home, I saw Gir watching TV again.

I didn't feel like scolding him and left.

I changed out of my disguise and thought back to Dib.

If I hadn't pushed him to his point, would he join me? Would he be my mate for the rest of our lives? Would he only destroy his planet to show me his loyalty? Would we... start a family together?

So many questions, yet they have the same answer.

If I had to guess, I think Dib would still fight for Urth, even if it means being killed.

I laid on the bed that I made and just stared up at the roof.

It's not like I had anything to do, to be honest.

After I stopped calling the Tallest, I began to see the errors of my ways and tried to be better.

That being said, so far, all I've done was worse.

Irk, I'm such an idiot..., I thought, covering my face with my hands.

Why did I make that stupid mistake...?

Then, all of a sudden, I heard Gir screaming about 'no-more-Angry-Monkey'.

I groan and got up from my bed.

I don't want to deal with Gir's whining. I'll have to fix that stupid TV, or it'll never stop.

I got up and walked over to the power generator to start it up again.

While I worked on it, I didn't notice a text from my phone until I saw a red light.

I grabbed it, and it was sent by Dib-sister.

"We need to talk." It said.

I text her saying that I'll be there and finished what I've done.

On my way to the Dib's house, I got another notification, and it said to not let the Dib see me.

Once I arrived, I saw Dib, but he didn't see me since he was more focused on something.

I saw him going up to the room, and that was my cue to meet his sister.

I knocked and saw Gaz-human opening the door.

"Hello, Zim," Gaz said without politeness.

"We need to talk."

"Just us or-"

"No, with Dad too," She said, walking with me to the kitchen where her Dad-unit was.

"Aw, daughter! I see you brought Dib's friend over!" He said, pointing out the obvious.

"Enough with that talk, Dad. We need to discuss Dib," She said grimly.

This stopped him from whatever he was doing and nodded at once.

We sat down at the table, and the Dad-unit began to talk.

"I get that he gave up on the paranormal and stuff, but he also gave up on life. I don't want my son to be like this."

"Me too. I mean, he was so focused on doing his thing until all of a sudden, he gave up. That's not the Dib I know..." Dib's sister said.

"I agree. I can't believe it either that he's changed. Maybe it's my fault for pushing this far..." I stated, looking away.

Neither of us spoke, but I knew that it wasn't just my fault.

"I do feel blame for this. That's why I'll enroll him in a part-time job at the labs so that he won't slack off after high school," Dad-unit said.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, Dad, he doesn't need to be in the labs. He needs a girlfriend!" Gaz-beast argued back.

"No, what he needs is to be with me, since I know him too well," I stated, staring at them down.

In less than a minute, we were arguing about Dib's future, and what will happen.

What we all didn't know, though, was Dib hearing everything.

And it wasn't a pretty sight to see him like this...
