Invader Zim oneshots and scenarios

Zim x Fem Reader (Philophobia)

The next day came and you weren't ready to go out at all. You decided that you would just distance yourself from Zim. Just long enough for this crush to fade. You honestly wanted to skip skool but... strict parents.

You drive to skool that day so you didn't walk to skool with Zim even though you really wanted to.

1st-3rd hour: Zim sits right beside you in class so it was hard to ignore him. You didn't fully ignore him because he's your friend so you would just pick and choose when you would listen and/or reply.

Lunch: you just went to the bathroom and camped out there until you heard the recess bell.

Recess: you went to the most solitary tree you could find and sat under it facing away from people.

Rest of the day: it was pretty much the same thing as 1st-3rd hour.

It was now the end of the skool day and you exited the building as fast as you could but gravity decided to be your enemy today. You were walking and once you reach the bottom of the stairs, you tripped over nothing. Zim caught up to you and helped you up.

"Y/n, what wrong? Why have you been distant from me?" Zim asked. You felt horrible because you could hear a hint of sadness in his voice. "I'm just not feeling well today. That's all." You said not making eye contact. You were finally standing up straight again and you dusted yourself off. "Thank you for helping me Zim." You said with a smile and headed towards you car. Before you opened your car, Zim grabbed your hand. "Wait. Y/n, if you feel better later, would you like to hang out.?" Zim asked. You thought about it and since you already felt like a total douche you agreed. "If I feel better, yes." You smiled. Zim let go of your hand and let you get in your car and drive home.

-time skip-

It was now 5:46 and you've been thinking about seeing Zim but you weren't sure. Eventually you made up your mind and decided that you would go because you felt awful for doing that to Zim. You let your parents know that you were going out and headed over to Zim's house.

Once you arrived, you reach your hand up to knock on the door but before you knuckle hit the door, it opened revealing Zim.

"Oh, Y/n has arrived." Zim smiled. "Heh, yeah." You smiled back. "Zim was thinking you weren't going to show up, Y/n." Zim said slightly quieter as though he was sad. "Wha- no! Of course I was coming over. I can't not hang out with you." You smiled. "Even if I'm scared." You accidentally mumbled. "Hm?" Zim hummed. "What?" You asked playing dumb about what you just said, acting as though you never said it. "Nothing." Zim said. "Would you like to walk with me?" Zim asked. "Of course! That's why I came over here, to hang out with you." You smiled brightly.

Zim walked to your side and then you started walking with him. You two didn't talk for a few minutes so it was kind of awkward. "So... what do you want to talk about?" I hesitantly asked Zim. "Hm... I'll let Y/n choose the conversation." Zim said. Obviously you could tell he was proud of himself because he had that look on his face. You know the one where it looks like he's saying "I'm so great. I deserve a medal for my awesome work." Yea that look.

You snickered at how he makes that face at times. You didn't hate it. In fact, you thought it was kinda cute.

You felt your face heating up so you stopped walking for a second and bent down so Zim didn't see you blushing. "Is everything alright, Y/n?" Zim asked. "Y-yeah. I uh.. I had to retie my shoe." You lied. Zim looked down at your neatly tied shoe laces and looked back at your face. "Okay." Zim shrugged. You ran back up to him so you could walk beside him again.

Again, the walk was quiet for a moment, but then Zim decided to make conversation. "So, Y/n. What are some of your fears?" Zim questioned. "I wasn't expecting that.. well I guess starting off with what almost everyone is scared of. I have arachnophobia BAD." You laughed nervously. "Is that so, Y/n?" Zim smirked. "Heh, yeah. I have it so bad that I jump up onto the nearest thing that sets off the ground and start crying depending on how big the insect is." You laughed again. "Interesting.. what other fears do you have?" Zim asked. "Well, I have autophibia as well. I don't really like being alone at times so I have to have someone I know with me to actually feel safe." You said. "What are you most scared of?" Zim looked directly at you crossing his arms behind his back. "... I-I'd rather not say. It's honestly kind of stupid." You said in a softer tone avoiding eye contact. "What is your biggest fear?" Zim asked again. You look at him and sigh. "I-" you started. You took a deep breath in. " love." You admitted. Zim stopped walking and grabbed your arm gently. (Not actually grabbing your arm. More like placing his hand on your arm and adding the slightest amount of pressure) "Why are scared of love?" Zim questioned.

"It's dumb I know. I just feel like I'm never going to have someone to spend my life with because when I develop a crush, I distance myself from them and avoid them as much as I can. I'm not afraid to commit myself to them and it's not really being rejected.. I mean it kind of is but still." You said trailing off with your voice getting softer and softer as you try not cry from embarrassment. "Is there someone you like right now?" Zim asked. You felt your face start heating up so you turn your head away from Zim. "Y-yeah." You stuttered. "Who is it? If you don't mind me asking." Zim asked. "You know, you're really getting better at not speaking in 3rd person." You said trying to avoid his question.

Zim smiled but continued. "You didn't answer the question, Y/n." You but your lip ever so slightly. "mm... I-" you then got an idea. "How about I tell you about him rather than say his name." You say. A light blush dusted over your cheeks as you smiled nervously. "Okay." Zim agreed. "Um, let's see. Well he has some of the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen. You could say they're out of this world really." You say slightly laughing. "He has black hair that he never lets anyone touch-" "wait, black hair?" Zim cut you off. "Yeah, why?" Zim was quiet for a moment. "You're in love with the Dib-stink?!" Zim shockingly asked. He was a little dramatic about it not gonna lie.

"Wha-NO! Ew no.." you said. "Then who-" Zim then stopped talking. You were a little worried at first. "Uh Zim? You okay.?" You asked. Zim then looked at you once again and smirked his cocky-est smirk yet. "Y/n.." Zim said and leaned in very close to you. There was probably only 1 foot between you two. "Yes, Zim?" You asked nervously. "You like me, don't you.?" Zim asked.

'HOW DID HE KNOW?! WAS IT THAT OBVIOUS?!!' You were freaking out. Instead of replying you grabbed his cheeks and pulled him closer and kissed him. He was shocked for a split second but then kissed you back. He softly grabbed your cheeks to help deepen the kiss. You separated only due to the fact that air exists and you needed it at that moment. You then realized what you done. "Oh my gosh, Zim. I am so sorry. I didn't mean to-" "Hey, it's okay. I love you too." Zim said looking you dead in the eye smiling.

He grabbed your chin and pulled you in for another kiss in which you didn't deny. It wasn't a long kiss but it was still a kiss and you loved it. You draped your arms around Zim's neck and Zim placed his hands on your waist. You both stared at each other lovingly. "Still scared?" Zim asked and smirked. "I guess it was being rejected, but no." You smiled back.
