Parenthood [INVADER ZIM]

CHAPTER 21

Zim knew [M/N] deserved the very best, and not because he was one of the Almighty Tallest. Well partly It was.

His Tallest, his Father-unit, [M/N] is a kind, loving, generous, caring leader who leads with a soft face and stern actions. He was never cruel to anyone, minus Red but he deserved it most of the time. Zim never liked the idea of sharing his Tallest with anyone either, no matter how tall or brave they were, they weren't going to treat [M/N] with respect and love. Plus, Zim loved the attention of [M/N] focused on him and his great achievements or his plans to take over Urth.

Then Professor Membrane, the father-unit Of Dib And Gaz. The world's best and smartest scientist, the savior of the world. He came in and began courting his Tallest. A disgusting human, the only redeemable trait was his height. He's a tall human.

Though, Zim had to keep watch on the tall human, making sure his intentions of courting and mating his Tallest would be serious. [M/N] announced it after the second date they had went on at the moovies, at first Zim thought it was crazy that a mere human would ask his Tallest out. Zim wanted to attack Membrane but [M/N] explained slowly what was going to happen and such between himself and Mayo. Such a silly name for a human.

Zim pretended to support his Tallest decision before planning on snooping around Mayo's business, plans and such. Wouldn't he be a bad son if he didn't make sure all of Mayo's intentions were pure? Of course not!

So as [M/N] and Mayo began dating, Zim began snooping, watching and occasionally stalking the tall human. He was way better at Dib-stink, Zim would say. Hanging in the Membrane vents, especially the ones in the lab and in Mayo's office while the other worked happily. He was surprise nobody caught Zim, even after leaving a vent open one time by accident. Then on times durning recess, Zim would have a camera watch Mayo when he was at home trying to cook like his Tallest but ends up burning the food. Nobody could beat his Tallest, Zim would think with pride. Not even with domestic cooking! Pathetic worm!

Zim even followed after them on dates, not all the time, no. He need to work on his plans on Urth domination. Zim would peer through windows if there were any, used vents despite how uncomfortable it is, and disguise himself. Zim is the master of disguising himself after all. He thought no one noticed or pay any attention to him, it kept happening for the next two months.

[M/N] always knew, at first he thought it was cute and Zim would cut it out in a few weeks. But it never did, Zim was relentless with his disguises and hiding himself from their sight. Zim never really interfered with the dates but [M/N] felt like a child being watched by a nosy parent. After tenth date from some romantic seafood restaurant, [M/N] saw Zim enter the home before Mateo dropped him off. [M/N] came in, shutting the door and saw Zim sitting on the couch acting innocent.

Both Irken's began arguing about it, and then after a ten hours of screaming they both stopped. They're antennas hung low and both panting.

" Zim isn't sorry for what I did." Zim said, gloved hands clenched into fist out of frustration. " Zim wanted you to have the best mate in the world, nothing that can compare to."

" I know that."

" I'm sorry that I acted like a rude and pathetic human parent." Zim added, looking down on the floor. " I worried."

" I know, and I'm grateful to have a smeet as understanding and generous as you." [M/N] said, rubbing his nape a bit awkwardly before sitting down beside Zim. " I didn't mean to yell." He added, Zim sitting back down, pressing himself against [M/N]'s side. His forehead pressed against his side, nuzzling deeper and his scent suffocating Zim. Not that he minded, it was calming him. " You're my Smeet Zim, don't you ever think you should be the one to take care of me. I am your tallest, and as such, I'm the one that's suppose to care for you."

" I know, Zim knows." Zim said, purring softly in the back of his throat a bit, chirping a bit. " My Tallest is the very best. But Zim can take care of himself, I am the very best."

[M/N] chuckled, he looked to Zim and smiled. " Yes, you're the very best." [M/N] said, smiling. At least seemed okay with him seeing Mateo, even if the Irken had stocked them for two months as they dated. Everything seemed to fall into place finally. Even though Zim is to take over Urth, [M/N] would have a wonderful time with Mateo and maybe one day he'll be able to show Mateo his form once they have hit their 12 date. He'll be able to tell him, make him understand their situation and be able to let Dib document them in a peaceful way without opening them up. He'll have his family here on Urth and live peacefully in the way [M/N] dreamed. He'll be in peace, finally.

He was always a dreamer, but sometimes dreamers won't come true.
