Love with an alien (Invader Zim ~Zim x reader~) (On Hold For Now)

Waffles

(pretend Dib is you. To lazy to edit the picture)

Me and Zim would talk about stuff relating to space. He would talk about how the galaxy is filled with things that are hard to understand like the mysteries of different planets

Zim would quietly tell me about his alien race so no one could hear him but me. For almost every answer he gave me i had another question. I guess he didn't mind it because we were talking about where he is from

At times Zim would ask me questions about how humans act and why they act that way and other reasons they act the way they act. Zim apparently was always one for knowledge since he almost always seemed curious about why human do certain things

I was curious on why Zim hides his adorable eyes and antennas. I'm still confused about why i love being around Zim. My brother tells me its because I may just think of him as a best friend which may be true but this is different from how I felt when I was with my best friend in (h/t)

Deciding to push my thoughts aside as the bell rang for us to go to lunch. As I sat at mine and Zims table while I waited for him to get his lunch so he could blend in. Pulling out my sketch book as I filled in the black parts of my drawings with pencil to shows its supposed to be black till Dib slammed his hands on the table startling me, which caused me to mess up and go outside the picture

"Ugh, thanks a lot, Dib" grumbling showing anger and sarcasm in my voice as I erase the mistake I made

"Sorry, but you got to join me in stopping Zim!" Dib yells while I fix the mistake he made me do

Sighing I look up at him now "look, Dib, when will you get it that I'm not going to betray my friend? And that friend is Zim, so you can't make me go against him"

"What if he betrays you, (y/n)!" He sounded worried but I pushed it aside

"I don't think he will, besides if he does its not like I haven't already gotten used to it"

"What does that mean?" Dib now looks at me confused

"Lets just say ive had a lot of rough things happen in my life. Thats all I'm telling you"

"But-" before Dib can finish he gets pushed to the side but not strong enough to make him fall. We both look at the person who did that. It was none other than Zim

"Leave (y/n) human alone Dib stink" Zim crossed his arms with a glare in his eyes showing that he was not happy at all

"This is not over Zim!" Dib got up and walked away fuming

"Is (y/n) human okay?" Zim actually looked at me with concern, which surprised me. But, I honestly liked it. So I gave him a smile and a nod "good, Dib stink is really getting on Zims nerves"

"I can see that" the bell rang so we can go home "well, how about we go to your house this time Zim since you came to my house last time"

"Zim doesn't see why not. Since I do trust you"

"Okay its settled. How about breakfast for dinner"

"Breakfast for dinner? Whats that"

"Basically instead of stuff you normally do have for dinner, we make breakfast foods for dinner. Such as maybe, pancakes, bacon, sausage, eggs, waffles-"

"I would like waffles"

"Okay, waffles are good. So lets have waffles. Do you have any?"

"No, usually Gir makes them"

"Huh, well ive never made waffle batter, just the quick waffles you heat up. So Gir will probably be making dinner I'm guessing"

"That is correct I guess, since you don't know how to make the batter"

Getting to his house Gir greets him, but Zim already asks him to make some waffles, which Gir was very excited to do so since he likes to make food I guess

"So, Zim, you can't eat human food?"

"Yes, I can't taste your food"

"Huh, there are some gross food in my opinion so i guess that works out for you if you don't need to eat"

"Precisely why i despise human food, except candy"

I go to ask why candy till Gir gets done making the waffles. He puts a big stack of waffles onto the table for us. Zim chews on a corner of the waffle while having the waffle being stabbed down. He looked like he was having trouble eating it (top of the picture above)

Chuckling I grab his fork thats holding the waffle and pull his plate towards me so I could cut his waffle up. Him looking at me confused. Once I finished cutting them up i gave them back but he looked at it with confusion still

Cutting mine up and grab a piece with my fork I take a bite of the delicious food. Zim was watching me to know how to do it. He copied my motion and at his waffles. Us just enjoying waffles in comfortable silence

"Oh, yeah. I didn't get the chance to ask" getting Zims attention and he looks at me still chewing "why is it you can eat candy and waffles?"

He swallows his food so he can answer "Zim can eat anything with a lot of sugar. Its the one thing us Irkens like and found to stabilize us. Other foods have not been able to stabilize us. If we don't, well I don't know. We've never been not stabilized before so we don't know what would happen"

"Oh so you just need to have sugary foods?" Zim nods in reply "that makes sense since you would need a way to eat so people don't get suspicious"

They rest of the day was us eating some waffles and me learning about some of Zims inventions to take over earth
