"...Um...what?" Zim, a green-skinned boy with a 'skin condition', asked. He must have heard the Dib-thing wrong...

However, Dib Membrane stood as srious as ever. "I said I liked you. Like, I like-like you." He said, rubbing his arm nervously. Zim blinked his wide fake blue eyes a few times before shaking his head, his black wig swaying to-and-fro.

"But...how!? I DON'T like you!" Zim said with a scowl. Rather than cry (like Zim had hoped he would), the human Noirette smiled. "You'll come around." He said. And with that, the Diblet turned around. Zim shook his head again. 

'Well this can't get any weirder...' He thought spinning on his heel and walking away.

(2 Weeks Later)

"Hey, Zim!" The green boy groaned and turned to the ravenette, his thin arms crossed. "What is it you want from Zim, Dib-stupid?" Zim asked, tapping his foot impatiently. Dib smiled and blushed a little. It was at this point that Zim noticed that Dib had something behind his back.

"What are you hiding, Dib boy?" He asked with a riased eyeridge. Dib smiled and presented Zim with a small box with burgundy wrapping paper and a lime green boy. "Here. I got you something." Dib said with a smile. Zim blanked. "What?" He said, curiosity peaking his voice. Dib laughed.

"Well? Open it!" He said with a smile. Zim rolled his fake eyes. Maybe it was a death missile or something. But, the box looked too small and harmless to do any damage like that.

Then again, it might be a detinator...

Zim plucked the ribbon off of the top of the box and slowly unwrapped it. Inside...was another box. Only this time, it was white. "Is this a Russian nesting doll I'm unaware of?" Zim asked with a raised eyeridge. Dib blinked before laughing. "No, no, nothing like that." He said, and for some reason, Zim blushed.

The Dib's laugh sounded somewhat cute...Wait, WHAT!?

Shaking his head, he lifted up the lid of the box...and blinked in surprise.

Inside...was a pendant with a huge rainbow quartz gem in the middle, with a rose quartz gem at the top and a pearl on it's right. "Dib-human...how much did this cost?"

"Like...20 bucks..." Dib sweat-dropped, and Zim could tell that it was probably more that a mere amount of 20 bucks, but he wasn't going to embarrass Dib by asking how much (Even though that sounded hilarious).

"It was the Steven Universe necklace you wanted. I saw it in that one shop near the 7 Eleven down that way." Dib said with a beaming grin, pointing down west. Zim's eyes widened. "But that's really far away from the school AND your house! How did you get there and back!?" Zim asked. Dib blinked again, but then laughed, and Zim blushed. "My dad drove me. He wasn't very happy about it, but I told him I'd pay for the necklace." He said with a delighted smile.

Zim blushed harder. Dib did all this for someone he was supposed to hate...

Damn, the kid was sweet...

"Need help putting it on?" Dib asked the shorter boy. Zim blushed and nodded. Beaming, Dib grabbed the necklace from the box (Zim had forgotten he'd even been holding it), migrated from in front of Zim to behind him with a smile, and slipped it around Zim's skinny neck.

Once the clasp was clipped together, he clapped and went to stand in front of Zim. "Looks good on you; Matches your coloring." Dib said with a beaming smile. Then, he glanced to his pocket and took his phone out with a frown.
