Jeordie's POV:

I froze instantly and I felt like I couldn't breathe. Fuck, fuck, fuck!! I couldn't say anything. Brian and I were a little too shocked to move. I tried to speak. I tried to find or make up an excuse. But nothing came out other than "I-I, uuh-um" I felt so sick. I slowly turned around to look at Brian, expecting a sad look in his eyes. But instead, all I saw was anger. He looked vicious. I saw him clench his hands into fists and he looked me dead in the eye. I felt a shiver run down my spine.

Run, run, RUN!! JEORDIE, GET THE FUCK OUT OF THERE NOW!

I listened to my instincts and I ran straight up to the bathroom. I could hear Brian running behind me. I slammed the door and locked it behind me. I stepped back and watched the door shake from Brian's heavy pounding from his fist. "OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR JEORDIE!" I screamed and slid down onto my bottom and I curled into a little ball. How could I? How could I do this to Brian. Why did I do this? I feel so guilty. I tugged at my dreads and cried. What was I supposed to do. I looked up and wiped my eyes. I could still hear Brian shouting and pounding on the door. He was scaring me. I'm really really scared. "JEORDIE! I SWEAR TO FUCK!! OPEN THE GODDAMN DOOR OR ILL DO IT MYSELF!" All I could do was scream and cry. I don't know why, it was just in instant thing. I looked around me. Window! I slowly and quietly got up. Shaking with fear and blurry eyes from my salty tears. I opened the window quickly but quietly and looked down. It wasn't very far and there were a few bushes down below. "JEORDIE! OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR!" I didn't say anything. I climbed out and dangled my legs over the side. I took a deep breath and jumped. I landed in the bushes with a crash! I had a few scratches and there sure as hell will be small bruises tomorrow, but that's all. I climbed out of the bush and I ran. Where I was going? Zim. He's the only one that I can think of. I kept running, not daring to look back.

Zim Zum's POV:

I sat on my bed staring at the ceiling. Just thinking. I can't stop thinking about Jeordie though. I cant believe he actually wanted me. I thought he lik- loved... Brian. Yet here I am, thinking about how I took his virginity. Jeordie really is something special. I have to admit. I really do-... I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard banging on my front door. I sighed. Probably Pogo. I walked to the front door and opened it. "ZIM!" I heard someone shriek. I immediately felt arms wrap around my neck. I almost fell over. I looked at whoever it was's face. "Jeordie? Oh my god are you okay?! Quick come inside." I closed the front door and picked up Jeordie and walked to my bedroom. I placed him on my bed. He sat up and was sniffling. I sat in front of him. "Jeordie what happened?" I immediately felt concern take over. "H-h he, found ou-out... He's s-s-scaring m-me!" I was confused. "Who's scaring you Jeordie?" He looked up at me with fear in his eyes. "Brian. He f-found out and h-he's angry a-and-" That's all he could say until he leant into me and hugged me. He started to cry again. I was about to say something until I heard a car. I sighed. I stroked his dreads softly."Jeordie, someone's here I'm just gonna check who it is" he snapped his head up to me and panic and fear was seen in his eyes visibly. "No! No don't answer it Zimmy. It's Brian, h-he's here for me! No don't leave Zim" I Almost couldn't resist. But I had to go see. I took Jeordie's face in my hands and I looked sympathetically at him. "Jeordie. Nothing will happen to you while I'm here, you have to trust me okay?" He looked down and then looked back up at me. He nodded. I smiled and kissed him on the forehead. "Stay here, and don't make a sound." He nodded again. I got up and closed the bedroom door behind me as I made my way to the front door of the house. I opened the door to see an angry looking Brian in front of me. I tried to look as confused as possible. His hands were in fists and his veins were visible on his neck. I admit, even I was scared. "Where's Jeordie?!" He snapped. Fuck! Okay, play it cool Zim. "What?" I asked him. His hands clenched tighter. Fucking hell Zim. Play it cool not make him any more angry. Brian didn't bother to respond, he just pushed my shoulders roughly and if it weren't for the chair behind me, I would've fallen over. Now I was getting angry. "What the fuck Brian?!" I yelled. "Where the hell is Jeordie, I know he's here." I had to lie to Brian. "Brian, he's not here, I haven't even seen him today." He didn't look any less angrier. "Well, WHERE THE FUCK IS HE?!" Goddamn. "I DON'T KNOW BRIAN, THATS WHAT IM TRYING TO TELL YOU!" He slapped me across the cheek. I winced and anger took over my body. I growled. "I know you fucked him Zim!! You took him away from me!!!" I took him away from Brian? What a load of bullshit. "If anything, he wanted me. He scared of you Brian! You scare him! He doesn't know what to do! You're always angry! What can he do about that? I said to him that I was always here if he ever needed me. And he came to me. And I knew he needed me. You scared him Brian! So don't take it out on me because if anything, it's all your fault!!" I stopped taking and I watched him. I could see tears welling up inside his eyes. But they were soon blinked away. "You motherfucker!" He tried to throw a punch at me but I blocked it. I grabbed his other hand as well and looked at him. "Brian, don't do this." "I HATE YOU ZIM! YOU TOOK HIM AWAY FROM ME! I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AND I NEVER DID!!"
He never did? I was saddened by his choice of words. "Brian please, stop. Jeordie isn't here"

Jeordie's POV

I sat on Zim's bed listening to everything. I kept tugging at my dreads. I do that when I'm nervous. I knew Brian was here. I was scared. I then heard him shout. I squeaked from fright and I pushed myself under Zim's bed. The bed blankets were long and thick and they covered the sides and the end of the bed so you couldn't see underneath. I could hear yelling. But I couldn't make out what it was. I sat under the bed for minutes that felt like hours. I kept wide awake. Every now and then I blocked out everything that I heard, but on accident. I heard somebody approach the door and open it slowly. I held my breath. I didn't know who it was, and I didn't want to find out right now. I didn't dare make a sound. I kept dead still and I held my breath. I squeezed my eyes shut. The person who is in here stopped moving. A hand suddenly shot under the bed and grabbed my arm. I screamed so hard my voice hurt. I was yanked from under the bed. I kept screaming. "JEORDIE! SHHHHHHH!! It's just me calm down." I could barely hear anything over my screeching until I was pulled into a hug. I recognised who it was and I instantly stopped. I started to cry. "Z-Zim" I muttered out. "Shhhh Jeordie. It's okay now." I sobbed. "W-where's Brian." I really didn't want to ask this but I did anyway. "He left, he was convinced that you weren't here. But he still has his suspicions." My heartbeat increased. He still has his suspicions? "He's going to be back Zim" I said. "Yes I know. I have plans. I know what to do." Now that was a relief. I was really scared. I didn't know what Brian would do to Zim if he found out I was here. I don't want to know either. We both let go. Zim smiled at me and pulled a loose dread behind my ear. I smiled faintly. "I love you Zim." I finally whispered. His smile only grew wider. "I love you too Jeordie, and I'll never let you get hurt."
"You promise?" I teased
"I promise baby"
We both laid down on the bed and cuddled up to each other. I kept thinking. I never want to be around Brian. Only because I'm scared of what he'll do to me and Zim. I caused all of this. It's like I've put a burden upon Zim. I got him into this mess, and I'm trying not to make it messier. School is in three days. I realised it was Friday today. At least I have some time to think and be with Zim. I rolled over to face Zim but realised that he was already asleep. He looked so calm. His arm was around me. I grabbed his hand gently and drew little pictures and patterns on the palm of his hand. I looked at him. His eyes were still closed. But I saw a smile being tugged at his lips.

A/N: HEY HEY HEYYYYYYY!!! Sorry I took so long to update. I haven't been on wifi for sooooo long. Also I got a bit stuck with what to write next, but I figured it out!! So I just want to say, this whole book/story is set when there was Daisy, Zim. Brian, Pogo, Twiggy and Ginger were in the band. Yeah I know it's a little out of order. But that's what I'm aiming for. This is set back in like 1996. Just letting you know! Thanks so much for reading and please vote and comment! Leave suggestions cause sometimes I get stuck :s . Oops... Love you guys!!! Xxxxxx
