Monster Musume: Being Human ((ZombinaXMale))

Chapter 7: Relationship Goals

"Morning Garrett...Gaaaareett! Wake up sleepy head!" Garrett groaned. He felt off this morning. And not in a good way. His body felt heavy, and his stomach felt like it was inside out, a jackhammer was pounding away inside his head. "Oh no...." Zombina placed a hand on his forehead. Red hot. "Oh my god...you're sick." He didn't want to open his eyes, for they hurt whenever he looked at the light. "Oh no...I'll get you some cold water right now." She said bolting to the kitchen. Garrett didn't often get sick, but when he did, it was a battlefield. A short lived one, but a painful one. She came back with a chilled glass of water with a silly straw. "Sorry, it's all I could find...." She said scratching the back of her head. "I'll call your boss, and tell him you won't be coming to work today." As she walked away Garret stopped her, tugging her sleeve. Through his pale yet warm looking cheeks, he smiled. She made her way to the telephone and dialled the number. "Hello, Mr. Peterson. This is Zombina, Garretts, exchange guest. I'm sorry but Garret is very sick and won't be coming today." After the conversation had ended. She planted the telephone on the receiver. Making her way back to Garret she fluffed his pillow tucking him in his bed. "Thank you....so much. I owe you." He says sombrely. "I'm just taking care of my master is all." She plants a kiss on his forehead. Feeling like he was dying inside he kept quiet trying to doze off. Until Zombina got in with him. "Won't you get sick too...?" She chuckled. "Dude I'm a zombie. I can't get sick." She said petting his hair. "I'm sorry you have to see me like this..." he says frowning. "That's alright George. There's a first time for everything." Garret chuckled. "Garret, my name is Garret." He says looking up at her. "I know. It's just fun to bug you." She poked his nose. "Zombina, if you're a zombie, why aren't you all you know....rotten and gross? Eating brains and all that....." he asked through a cough. "Well, my blood was mixed with a chemical that keeps me from doing that, so I don't decompose. It's really toxic to humans but I'm sure you'll be fine." She says smiling. "Although I wouldn't mind biting you....." she says seductively, licking her upper lip. "CONCERNED....." Garret shouted. (Proud of me Senpai Relentlezz41 ) "Oh come on. Why can't you make love to me?" She says clearly messing with him. "Weeeell I don't know! Maybe it's because I'd rather not be in jail! We haven't known each other long enough! I mean come on. it's only been seven chapters!" She playfully pouted. "Why are you so mean to me Gary...." she couldn't hold it bursting out laughing, "You're such a cinnamon roll." She says patting his head.

Zombina brought him some of the left over food he had made. "Thank you..." he says smiling. "How are you feeling?" She says leaning closer to him. "A little weak but my headache is gone. Thankyou Zombina." He says. "You owe me a date." She says crossing her arms. "What'll it be." "You, me, couch, movie, popcorn, cuddles. The works." He smirks. "What if I say no?" He says giggling. "I'll eat your brains. Then wear you as a coat." Garret looked visibly shocked. "Woah, where's this coming from?" He says. "Sorry....I guess today has been lonely...." she says looking down. "Hey, it's ok. I understand. How about tonight I get my ass out of bed and we can have a movie night hm?" He says smiling. She had a great fondness for movies. And Garret couldn't argue. Better then a lot of things. "I just hope Ms. Smith doesn't eavesdrop like last time.." Garret says. "I think the best idea would be to lock the doors. Maybe watch it down stairs in the basement." Garret nodded."Agreed." Garrets basement was a concrete floor with a carpet and leather couch and plasma on the wall with a mini fridge. Before they did anything else that night. They closed all windows and drapes. Locking all doors and turning off all upstairs lights. Closing the door to the basement, they locked it from the inside. "Let's hope she gets the clue she's not wanted...." Garret says. Zombina was already at the DVD BLU RAY player. Setting it up. Garret had one of those light systems that can dim down. To get the mood of a theatre he dimmed the lights down. Zombina had the popcorn popper in her hands. Hooking it up on the counter she filled it with seeds. Garret chose the movie. One of his favourite action movies. The Man From Uncle. Once the popcorn was finished he grabbed a huge blanket and curled in with Zombina. He was about to take a bite of popcorn when they caught hands. They both blushed. Looking at each other, deep in the eyes. Garrett looked around to make sure Ms Smith wasn't watching. He looked back smiling at her. They came closer. Hooking noses. They could feel each other's breath in their faces. The blush getting fuller and warmer. Zombina closed her eyes, waiting for him. As did Garret. Closing his. Moving closer their lips met. Garret swore he could taste lip gloss. Their tongues shyly met. For a few moments it was as if the world had stood still. Once they separated. A line of drool came from each other's lips. Zombina giggled. Embracing Garret as the movie had ended.
