Parenthood [INVADER ZIM]

CHAPTER 16

" Zim calm down."

" ZIM WILL NOT CALM DOWN! YOU WERE GOING TO MATE WITH THAT HUMAN!"

[M/N] and Zim walked into the house, that's when the screaming began, on Zim's side most of the time. [M/N] had to shuffle his pants on and rush out, picking up Zim before he could hurt Mateo for the misunderstanding. Now back at home, Zim leaps off [M/N]'s shoulder, falling on his stomach before scrambling to get up. Zim removed his disguise, and began shouting at [M/N].

" Zim I wasn't gonna mat-"

" YOU LIE!"

[M/N] sighs, as he watched the Invader point and scream at him. Usually, this was amusing to him but at this moment, it annoyed him and the pounding at the back of his skull was getting worst. " Zim, please, you need to calm do-"

" ZIM WILL NOT CALM DOWN! YOU CALM DOWN!" Zim snarled as he glared at the Tallest. " ZIM KNOWS MORE OF THE SMELLY-HUMANS! YOU COULD GO A DISEASE FROM EVEN TALKING TO THEM! DO YOU WANT THAT?! WHY ARE YOU EVEN TALKING TO THE PROFESSOR?!" Zim didn't understand why his Tallest would even talk to the male, the only thing they had in common is their height.

" Zim, I got hurt and he was patching me u-" [M/N] tried to explain but Zim only screeched louder, he pressed his fingers against his temples, rubbing against his head. " Zi-"

" DID HE HURT YOU? DID THE DIB HURT YOU? ILL DESTROY HIM!" Zim snarled as he moved towards the door, not caring that his disguise wasn't on but before he could even open the door, a hand grasped Zim's collar and throws him against the couch. Zim huffed about to get up but he stops when a glare was aimed at him. The invader cowards down a bit, antennas down. " My Tallest-"

" Zim, I have enough with your games, your impatient attuide and reckless behavior." [M/N] hissed, he pressed the button on his watch and his disguise, his antennas stretched and some pops of his spine. " Zim, I know what I'm doing, you need to trust me on something's that are my own. I'm not a Smeet or stupid, believe it or not. I may be a smeetary worker but I am still a person who loves company." [M/N] huffed a bit, as he looked at Zim who flinched once his berry-colored eyes meet golden ones. " I am your Tallest, your leader, not your servant, I can talk who I want to talk to and enjoy who I want to enjoy." [M/N] snarled a bit, the pounding at the back of his skull was getting worst. " Just who do you think you are?" [M/N] rubs his head as he glared at the ground now. Oh Irk..this pain...

Zim winced, his antennas folded back a bit. He had never been yelled at by [M/N], if anything, he was scolded lightly but Zim always ignored it. Now, he was being yelled at for something that bothered him, [M/N] was mad at Zim. " Y-Your Smeet..." Zim answers, looking at his gloved hands. " That's who I think..I am..." Zim whispers as he kept his gaze down, a begging chirp was trying to escape his lips but he couldn't, getting yelled at by his Tallest was bad enough. He didn't want to seem weak. " I-I just want to please and protect you.."

[M/N] stared at Zim and noticed the way Zim was acting, almost submissive. His own antennas lowered, Oh Irk, I didn't mean to get mad..I..I..

" Oh Zim.." [M/N] whispers as he sits down on the couch, and looked at Invader. " I-I didn't mean to be so angry..I'm so sorry, I.." [M/N] started, as the headache was slowly numbing, he stared at the sad Irken before slowly pulling the Irken closer to him. Zim didn't try to get out of his touch, he instead nuzzles into [M/N]'s side, his antennas still down. " It's just..felt so..defensive around Mateo.."

" Tomato?" [M/N] chuckles at Zim's response.

" No, Mateo." [M/N] corrected before petting Zim's head, earing a small soft purr in response. " Zim, you do not need to worry with me and him, He is a human and I'm well..a Tallest..plus, mating isn't exactly on my long list to do's right at the moment. I want to go for a walk in the human park, help Dib ride a bike," Zim hissed under his breath but [M/N] ignored it. "And well, I want to do all of this before you take over this planet as it's overlord." Zim looks up, antennas raised and a stupid grin on his face.
