Parenthood [INVADER ZIM]

CHAPTER 19 [parte 1]

Mateo Membrane doesn't date.

Not because he was never asked on one; which is very true.

It was because work and his kids as of lately, had been his priorities for a very long time. Mostly work but that wasn't the point. This had to be his very first date with another person of the same gender. Someone who might be a few years younger than himself, he looked the part. [M/N] had this handsome face with big [E/C] eyes, soft [H/C] hair and skin smooth as a brand new baby, soft too. While Mateo was an older man with baggy amber eyes and grey hair was growing at the end of his cowlick not to mention the thick and muscular built he had now compared to the one in Hi Skool.

Basically, Mateo was a lot older than [M/N].

That was his main conclusion was when he thought of where to take the Babysitter for their first date. The first idea was take him out to eat and get to know [M/N] on a more intimate way. But the other would probably be bored, the next was a movie but there wasn't much going on at the local theater either. So the last idea came from Gaz and Dib, both had suggested taking him out to some club or somewhere involving a dance of some sort. After an hour of goggling, Mateo found a nice place called, the Spill, and bought nice clothes to wear.

Well, the kids actually dressed him. It was a long black turtleneck shirt, dark jeans that was comfortable to walk in and black shoes. Mateo still kept his goggles but a face mask covered the lower half of his face. His cowlick still popping out but the rest on his head combed nicely. He was very nicely dressed for this.

Now he waited at the bar, he planned to meet [M/N] there which the babysitter was more than happy to do since Zim would've followed him back to Mateo's home, screaming and such. As he waited by the bar, more and more people began coming in the building. Mateo ignored most of them as the music began to get louder, the bar vibrating under his robotic finger tips. " Are you gonna order yet?" The bartender asked, coming back from delivering a tray full of tequila shots.

" Oh?" Mateo looked up from his fingers and nods his head. " Uh, one watermelon margarita. " The bartender said nothing as she began making the dude's drink. " This is my first time coming here." Mateo said, as he looked at her, watching how skillful she was. " I never come out into these sort of things."

" Yeah, we just opened a year ago." She said, her hands keeping busy. " You're not the first who said that they haven't been here. No offense, but you don't seem like the type to come here either." She said as she gently placed the margarita on in front of the man.

" You are very correct, I am here with.." Mateo went quiet for a moment, boyfriend? Date? Friend? Date seemed about right but he didn't want to just assume. "With a date?" She asked as Mateo looked to her, eyebrows lifted in surprise and wide eyes. " he's right behind you, he's a cutie." She said moving off to another customer. Mateo gulps and turns around to see [M/N] dressed in clothes he never thought to see on the other. Other than button up shirt and a sweater over it.

[M/N] smiles as he looked at Mateo, his cheeks heated up as he saw how different Mateo looked without the large white lab coat.  " You look handsome." [M/N] complimented with a little smile. Mateo blinked a few times and chuckled, flushed a bit. [M/N] wore a button up black shirt with varies of pink flowers on the shirt, black pants and pink converse peeking up from the bottom of the pants. His hair pulled back a bit, jelled back just a bit and it showed more of his [E/C] eyes.

" You look spectacular." Mateo replied and almost heaves when [M/N]'s cheeks turn pink and a large blissful smile on his lips.

" Thank you! It took me many hours  to pick this outfit!" [M/N] said as he moved, leaning against the bar and looked around at the different drinks on the shelves and such. The place was pretty and loud, he didn't mind, but he was almost shoved into the crowd in the middle of the room where humans were making weirder movements. " This place is colorful," [M/N] said. " It's also crowded."
