“Um, Dib? Are these your glasses?” you asked, holding them up from the bag. Dib took them and, with a quick glare at Zim, went into the closet. I grinned and laughed at you, pushing you into the closet, and locking the door. You stood still for a moment, wondering if you should step forward to find a place to sit but ended up just sinking to the floor at the door. “Hey, ____?” Dib said in the dark. “Yeah?” you asked, looking up. Dib hesitated then mumbled, “Nothing.” You determined from his voice where he was and crawled over, feeling for him when you found his foot. You slid up next to him and pecked him quickly on his cold cheek. You turned away to hide the blush in your cheeks but Dib then pushed you against the wall. “Dib! What are-” you’re interrupted by Dib’s urgent lips against yours. You’re shocked but quickly kiss back. Dib’s hands went from pinning you to the wall to your waist where he positioned himself so that you were on his lap. You broke the kiss and Dibs arms were tight around your waist, afraid to let you go. “Why?” he asked. You thought for a moment before answering. “Well…you seemed cool and pretty decent compared to any other guy I know. You’re also… unique.” You smiled at the last part and Dib sighed happily, resting his head on your shoulder. The door opened, filling the closet with light. GIR stood in the doorway, looking at you and Dib, then yelled, “WAFFLES!!!” and ran back to me, clinging to my back.

“Uh, Lex? I just pulled out your kitten,” you said, holding the little orange kitten up for me to see. “Amenti! Poor thing, come here,” I cuddled the little cat then said, “Alright, who’s the dead meat who put my kitty in the bag?” Zim glanced around the room then made a mad dash for the closet. I glared after him while you started for the closet. You closed the door behind you and slid to the floor. “Hello Zim!” you greeted pleasantly. “______-human! I am glad I got you! At least I know who you are but tell me, how do you play this seven minutes in heaven?” Zim asked. Since you and him were partially good friends, he thought you weren’t as horrible as the other humans, you shrugged and answered, “Well, two people are stuck in a closet for seven minutes to do whatever they want.” He considered this for a second before asking, “Why is it called ‘heaven’?” You raised an eyebrow. “Because usually the people will like each other so they kiss or hug or something.” Zim was quiet for a little. You felt arms go around your shoulders and pull you into his chest. You hear his heartbeat start to go a little faster… …Outside the closet… “Here you go, Dib,” I said, handing him a squirt gun. He looked at it weirdly. “Um, what’s this for?” he asked. I slowly smirked, “No one hurts my kitty without invoking my wrath!” I announced. GIR ran around in circles and Amenti was perched on my shoulder. Whoever else I’d invited was either watching TV or off doing their own thing. …Back in the closet… “I know you don’t like me or anything so we don’t have to do anything,” you assured him. His arms tightened around you, refusing to let go. “But, you said that if those who like each other get in the closet, they kiss or hug,” he reminded. You were confused. “Yeah, but… are you saying you like me?” you asked, dumbfounded. In response, Zim kissed your lips passionately. You kissed back after overcoming the shock, placing your hands on his chest. He purred and ran his hands down your shoulders, arms, and rested them on your waist. You pulled away and rejection filled Zim’s eyes, but you smiled at him in reassurance. “They’re going to open the door and it would hurt your rep to be caught kissing,” you explained. Understanding filled his eyes just before the closet door opened. You walked out first, then Zim, who was then sprayed with me and Dib by water squirters. He yelled as the water hit and steamed on his skin but ran after us in a fury, us running in terror, and you giggling at us.

“Who’s rubber pig?” you asked, holding it up. GIR jumped up and yelled, “Rubber piggy!” Then ran around the room three times, then jumped up and down, then ran into the closet. We all sat there silently for a bit, before I turned to Zim and asked, “How much sugar does he get regularly?” Zim sighed, “Maybe, too much? He eats waffles with a lot of syrup in the morning, cupcakes later on, then he makes cake for dinner.” I shook my head and you started heading for the closet. As you closed the door, GIR jumped out of no where and clung to your head. “You smell like kittens and puppies!” he yelled. You giggled and picked him up, holding him in your hands, and smiled at him. “You’re so cute!” you exclaimed. He squealed with joy. He hopped out of you’re hands, running around the closet as you slid to the floor, thinking about something. “Is pretty girl okay?” GIR asked, tilting his head. You smiled. “Just thinking,” you responded, slowly. “Aw, I think someone needs a hug,” GIR said, coming toward you with open arms. …Outside of closet… “I wonder how long it’ll last before GIR drives her into madness?” Zim said, thoughtful. Dib glared at him. “I don’t think she’ll go mad,” Dib said against him. “You DARE go against what I say?” Zim demanded, pointing at him. “Yeah, and I say that she’ll come out fine for ten bucks,” Dib bet. Zim smirked and said, “You’re on, human! Zim will be victorious!” I ignored them and played Game Salve 2 with Gaz on the couch. …Back in the closet… GIR hugged you and you hugged back. GIR then sat on your lap and closed his eyes, falling asleep. Sugar must’ve run out, you thought. Light filed the closet and you blinked, adjusting your eyes. Dib had opened the door and Zim peered around the corner. “Ha! In your face, Zim! You owe me ten bucks!” Dib yelled in Zim non-existing ear. “I did not agree to THIS! You’re LYING!” Zim yelled, running away. You carried GIR out and sat beside me and Gaz, placing him on the couch beside you, and watched Dib chase Zim around the room.

You hold the sandwich on your hand.
"Tuna?"
"That's mine." Dib grinned.
You look at the sandwich, then him.
"Serious?"
Dib nods and stands up.
He opens the closet door.
"Ladies first?"
You walk inside, he follows and closes the door.
Dib chuckles.
"Well, I'm stuck with you."
You shrug.
"I don't care."
"I thought you'd hate it." he looks surprised.
"I don't really."
"Then...would you hate it if I...Kissed you?"
"Depends where," you smirk.
Dib blushes and chuckles again.
"Alright then, if you're sure..."
He walks towards you, and presses his lips to yours.
You surprise yourself by enjoying it.
He doesn't stop, but you don't stop him.
He deepens the kiss, and you follow along.
When he DOES stop, you ask him:
"Why'd you stop?"
He shrugs.
"I don't know...You want me to keep going or something?"
You laugh.
"If YOU want to."
"Can I tell you something first?" he asks awkwardly.
"Yeah sure."
"I...I think I like you."
You smile.
"I like you too."
He kisses you again. The door opens, but neither of you notice until Gir yells "They're making out!"
Then you stop and look up at Keef standing in the doorway.
"Um...Time's up." he says awkwardly.
The next day after school Dib asks you out. You don't respond, but instead, you kiss him.

You pull out the teddy bear.
"Aww, this is cute! Who's is it?"
Zim slowly raises his hand.
"You?"
Zim nods in silence.
Dib has a stubborn look on his face.
"Let's get this over with, hoo-man."
Zim gets up and walks to the closet, and steps inside. You step inside too.
Once you're inside, Zim just stares at you a moment.
Then he steps forward and kisses you. Softly at first, then it gets harder. Then comes the tongue. At this point, you push him away.
"What? Isn't that how you humans do it?"
"Yes, but..." you stop talking.
"What then?"
"It was weird...I mean, it felt weird...I don't know..."
Zim gives you a look.
"How do you think I feel, I'm the one who has to do this."
"Sorry..." You mutter.
"Shall I continue, or do you want to stop?" he asks.
You think a moment.
"Con...Tinue?"
"Alright then."
He starts again, and you actually like it.
Then the door opens.
"Get off her, ZIM." Dib says, angered.
Zim walks out of the closet, smirking.
You follow, not knowing what just happened.

"What's this doing here?"
Gir starts laughing insanely.
"MINE! That's MINE MINE MINE!"
"O...Kay."
Gir runs into the closet, slamming the door behind him.
You open the door and walk in.
You both sit there. He's actually quiet for one. Then he pulls a taco out of nowhere.
"Here." He hands it to you.
You stare at it blankly.
"Eat it!!" He screams.
"Ok! Ok!"
You eat the taco.
It's...Good.
"Thanks Gir."
Gir starts screaming again.
"YAY! SHE LIKES IT! SHE LIKES IT!"
He screamed loud enough to get the others attention.
Keef opens the door. You look at him, holding a half eaten taco.
Keef is silent.
"Let's just say time's up," he said with a shrug.
You and Gir leave the closet.
Gir is laughing the whole time.
"GIR! QUIET!" Zim yells at him.
You laugh. This party wasn't so bad after all.
