Chapter Four: Confrontations of the Mind

Membrane had been staying at home a lot…he was progressively getting more and more depressed…repressed emotions are the worst, they come back at you with full force…as if the moment in which they were generated had only been paused, and the actions were only resuming…but Membrane couldn’t remember why he had such emotions, he only knew they were there…

It was late, actually very late, apparently depression gave Membrane insomnia…he heard the front door open and then slam close, quick footsteps climbing up the stairs and running down the corridor and saw a mass of black, blue and white that could only be Dib pass running obscenely fast…Membrane wondered, should he go like a good father and see what could be disturbing his son so much this time or not? It most likely would have something to do with that green kid…Membrane didn’t have to think any further, Dib came storming into his bedroom…

“Dad!!! An alien has been spying…us, no, YOU!!! We have to search the house and remove the cameras and stuff!!”

Dib remained there, all tense and twitchy, Membrane shook his head, raising a finger as if about to state something of transcendental importance…

“I’ll say it once again son, there are no aliens!!”
“You don’t understand!! You just don’t!! I’m telling you your life is in danger…I know you don’t believe me, you never do, and I know you don’t care about us but it’s true…I found the cameras’ links in Zim’s base and-“

Membrane’s eyes narrowed…

“What madness are you saying?? Us??”

Dib lowered his gaze…

“Gaz and me…”

Membrane looked away from Dib…not now; he didn’t want to know just how much he’d neglected his kids, how much pain he’d caused…

“Nevermind, I knew you wouldn’t believe me anyway…”

Membrane’s throat tightened, keeping inside all he wanted to say and all he wanted to deny so badly, but there was no way he could be forgiven for so many years of absence, no way it could be justified…Membrane sighed, pulling his legs to his chest and curling into a tight bal…reality just too stark for him…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Zim’s fist slammed against the computer’s keyboard…

“Hideous, stupid human!! Why must it always be like this!?!? Always messing up with my plans, sticking your filthy nose where you shouldn’t!!! But no more…I won’t let you ruin it all any further…”

Zim knew that even if Membrane wouldn’t believe Dib’s words even if he had the alien in front of him, his mind wasn’t at its best right now, and the subconscious would take into serious consideration any suggestion made, no matter how weak, and if it got into the conscious mind, it would be a problem, and Zim couldn’t take that kind of risk…he would have to kick Dib out of the game…but how?

Getting rid of something so useless and weak like a human shouldn’t be anywhere near difficult; he’ll only have to manage…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Science, REAL science, the Tallest, white bunnies, cheesy carrots and crappy experimentation be damned, Zim wanted it, the contact, the closeness, Zim wanted Membrane, he’d been craving it more and more ever since the experimentation incident of the labs…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Membrane was sitting next to Dib’s sleeping form, how could he say all those horrible things? Of course he cared about them…he loved them so much it hurt, but he’d never been good with the things of the heart and couldn’t bring himself to open up and say it, he’d rather lock himself up in his lab and barely see them…he was so doomed…

He reached out and softly touched Dib’s head, apparently he was a heavy sleeper because he didn’t even stir, Membrane stroked Dib’s hair very lightly, liking the texture, it was soft, softer than his own…he grabbed the scythe-lock, which was limp against the pillows and observed it…how could he have forgotten about them for so long? Gaz seemed well, but why had it affected Dib so much? He couldn’t tell…he wasn’t good at reading emotions; he leaned forward and placed a tiny kiss on Dib’s cheek before he left…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

“Computer!!!!!!”
“Whaaaaaat??”

Zim narrowed an eye more than the other…

“You don’t sound well at all…computer…anyhow, run my still newest software and initiate the simulation…”
“Data gathering mode??”
“No…simple play mode is fine…”

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Membrane was lying on his bed, motionless, and without a hint of sleep in his mind…apparently it would be another long night wallowing in the sorrow and just waiting for the sun to rise again, wondering if it ever got tired of doing the same thing everyday…

Membrane rolled over to lie on his side, that certainly wouldn’t help him sleep, but at least he could curl up a bit more…

Membrane curled up completely into a tight ball again, lately, that had become his favourite position, thinking of each and every time he’d neglected his kids, particularly Dib, that seemed to be tonight’s torture, maybe tomorrow it would be Gaz…

He felt a light brush against his bare back and uncurled a bit, kind of surprised…he knew that touch, he’d missed it…he felt one of the lanky arms slide under his neck, turning his head slowly and tilting it up for a kiss, a passionate and long one, the other arm pulling him closer to the fully tangible but invisible body…

Membrane sighed into the kiss, his eyes closed, too concentrated in feeling…he’d really missed it, the first time had just awakened too many things inside him and left him all confused, this time he really was enjoying it…

The kiss ended way too soon, Membrane’s lips hovering near the alien’s, their breaths mixing, a clawed hand still on Membrane’s cheek, holding his head in place…after a few seconds, Membrane’s head lolled back again and Zim leaned forward, pressing open-mouthed kisses from Membrane’s ear down to his shoulder, one of his legs pushing between the scientist’s long ones…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Zim licked and sucked Membrane’s shoulder a bit; he liked the bony feeling, but soon he stopped and laughed a bit on the inside at the tiny grunt Membrane made out of disappointment, his own need was growing, making him frustrated…but he’d been observing the human, and perfectly knew that he needed to rest, the hand that had dug into Membrane’s ribs in that characteristically possessive way of Zim and that had left bruises and begun to trace senseless patterns upon Membrane’s skin…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

When Membrane felt the claws unearth themselves from his flesh he hissed quietly, there surely would be bruises, he liked the sensation, the possessive pain…he tensed at first when the tiny claws began to ‘draw’ on his belly, but soon he relaxed, he relaxed so much…one of his hands had gone to intertwine his fingers with the alien’s and before he could notice it, he fell asleep…the exhaustion of depression, the angst and a week and a half of no sleep at all finally taking its toll on him…Zim squeezed Membrane’s hand so that it didn’t fall from his own…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Zim smiled when he felt Membrane relax completely against him, humans reminded him of cats, they were quite alike as far as pleasure was concerned, the hand that had been resting on Membrane’s belly slid down to the human’s thigh, he stroked the skin lightly, it was warm, and soft, it amazed him how humans could be really soft, Irkens were smooth but not soft, he liked it, he liked it very much…

He didn’t need to sleep, so he decided he would remain there, just like that for a while, besides, he kind of felt at peace, more than anytime before, it just felt right to be lying there, embracing his human…he pressed his forehead against Membrane’s shoulder…
