ZaDR Oneshots (Invader Zim)

Things Change PT4

Zim watched Dib just stand there for a moment in thought until he blinked and realized he was supposed to do something. He gave the room a quick glance over. His eyes slowly looked at Zim in his disguise sitting on his bed.

Zim could hear Dib's heartbeat speed up again. It seems to be doing that a lot today. Like when they hugged. It was a very heavy and loud but quicker than normal sound. This one sounded a lot like Zim's used to when they are fighting except it's skipping beats now and than. Zim wondered if Dib was having those heart attacks he heard humans can get or not.

Dib's face turned bright red as he quickly looked away from Zim and heads to a door that's in his room, "Imma check the other rooms." He said opening the door and escaping.

Zim didn't really care. He didn't exactly want to be here anyways. It makes him nervous being in the lair of his ex enemy. Zim keeps expecting to get randomly attacked even though it's not happening yet. Plus, Dib's scent was everywhere in this room. It was unavoidable. Another reason that Zim didn't just come to Dib's room often.

Zim's not sure how long he can last smelling the scent. It feels like he's losing brain cells being in here. He wish Dib would just hurry up and get this hang out over with.

Dib finally managed to find his movies and his old game console with video games. They play Burn Out 3 which Zim likes the fact he can win by making the car create as much destruction as possible. They than watch a movie. Dib wasn't sure what Zim might like to see and let him pick. So of course Zim picked the most gory and scariest movie he could find, because it was something familiar to the Irken.

"I forgot I had this movie." Dib looked at it in awe, "I thought it was a cryptid movie, but it's actually a horror movie... I'm not actually supposed to watch this... I think dad forgot I even owned this." Dib blushed shyly.

"Why aren't you supposed to watch it?" Zim asked confused.

"Dad said I'm too young. It's a... got a lot of adult content in it. I don't remember much about this movie. It's really gory and has some nudity." Dib explained.

"Nudity? You mean they don't wear clothes at certain points in the show? I don't get why that's a big deal with you humans." Zim tells him.

"I don't feel like explaining that to you Zim." Dib groaned.

"Are we going to watch it or not?" Zim asked him.

"Fine but if I get nightmares from this I'm blaming you." Dib just put the movie in.

"You mean you don't have nightmares about me?!? I'm actually insulted!" Zim teased.

"Oh hush." Dib hissed as he made sure to keep the volume low enough they could hear it, but the others wouldn't be able too.

He doesn't need his father catching him watching this movie again. The first time was bad enough. He didn't feel like going for round two. Feeling it might be too quiet in his room, Dib also played some of his favorite music in the room as Zim looked at him annoyed.

"Uh... hold on." Dib brings out two pairs of headphones and hooked them up to the tv, "I just don't want dad to hear the movie that's playing." Dib explains shyly and Zim nodded.

Dib puts his headphones over his ears and hands them to Zim, who mimics Dib.

"Uh... Aren't your antennas how you hear?" Dib asked him unsure.

"Yeah." Zim replied.

"They need to cover your antennas than." Dib sighed.

"Oh." Zim adjusts his wig to let the tips of his antennas be put inside the headphones.
