"What to do...." Zim walked into the library, quickly looking around at the shelves lined with books. He searched until he found the section labeled 'Fantasy'. He'd jumped out of his desk as soon as the bell rung, his plan to look for a book about some fantasy creature before he went outside to look for Rosanne. He'd hoped she hadn't forgotten about him already. He was glad that she'd run into him, he'd thought about what to do if he was able to meet up with her again. She was very interesting and he loved the questions she asked. he could tell she'd be a fun person to hang out with, being his first friend his age besides Romishi. Zim darted down the Fantasy aisle, looking around for a book preferably on werewolves or vampires. He'd remembered all she had said yesterday about reading. His first idea was to get a practice book of pianos for her to help him, but he had quickly pushed that idea aside, hearing a voice the sounded strangely like Romishi's say " Lame-o!". But his smirk never left his face as he continued searching, until he'd found one that said 'Guide To Lycans and Pale-Face: A Native Legend.' He hoped she wouldn't mind and he quickly turned it over, skimming the summary and not caring if he was in anyone else's way.

Rosanne had managed to find her way to the library. She had spent half an hour looking around for it, and finally, she stood at the door. Pushing it open, Rosanne scanned her eyes around the books on the many shelves. She sighed, then walked through the aisles, searching for the fantasy genre. Finally, she found the shelves for the fantasy books. Seeing a familiar face in the library, Rosanne blinked to see if she was just imagining or something. When she opened her eyes, she realized the person was really there.
Walking towards the boy, she smiled. "Zim?" she asked in surprise, and delight, too. Rosanne just hoped Zim still remembered her from yesterday. "The girl who walked into you." Rosanne was prepared to say, if Zim didn't remember.

Zim sighed when he finished reading the back. He froze when he heard a familiar voice he looked up and blined to make sure it was really the girl from yesterday. "Rosanne! Hey!" He grinned stupidly, realizing he still had the book in his hands. "Uh, I was-- I was going to check this out for you since you said you liked werewolves and vampires." He handed to her. "Since you're here, you can just tell me if you want to read it or not."
He shifted on his feet nervously, still smiling at her. He was sort of having a mental spaz attack that she remembered him and his name. Most people had to ask for it again since it was unusual. "I was going to see if I could catch you outside...to walk you home again." He bit his lip. "Unless you didn't need it if your brother was walking with you." He shrugged lightly, realizing he should probably stop moving.

Rosanne smiled. "How are you?" she asked, taking the book. She read the summary and grinned slightly. "It seems like a really good book," she told him with a nod. It looked like an interesting book, and Rosanne couldn't wait to start reading it. "Thanks," she smiled brightly. "Well, my brother isn't doing anything afterward." Rosanne said with a small shrug. "You can come with us, if you'd like..." she suggested. She skipped through the book to see how many pages there were. "390. Enough pages..." she thought.

"I'm great! Yo-ou?" Zim tripped up on the last sentence because he figured he had better tone it down a notch before she thought he was psychotic. He nodded. "Yeah I read the back and thought you would be interested in it. Unless you've already got something else to read, my sister has that problem all the time. "Cool! I'll get to meet him that way and I can still walk you home." He laughed lightly, putting his hands in his pockets. "Thanks."

"I'm fine," Rosanne replied with a bright smile. "I've been looking for a good book recently," she admitted. "And this book seems perfect!" she laughed lightly. "Yeah, Ian's outside." Rosanne smiled. "Where's your brother?" she asked curiously. "Maybe he and Ian would get along, though from Zim's description of Romishi's friends, Ian doesn't seem to fit in..." she thought.

Zim beamed as she called the book he picked out perfect. usually he didn't pick out good gifts, books, or choose things well for people. He shrugged whenever she asked about Romishi. "Probably going around causing tro-" "ZIM!" A white haired boy tackled Zim from behind, Zim moving slightly so they wouldn't hit Rosanne. Romishi started laughing. "Been looking for you. Hey lets get out of here before we get in trouble for that." He raced out of the library and Zim grabbed Rosanne's hand. "Just follow along with it." He rushed to the desk, hoping in the un occupied librarian's chair and logged onto the computer, taking the book and checking it out under his name. He quickly grabbed her hand again and the book and ran out of the school, laughing. "Here, I know the school's system code for the library." He looked around for Romishi, trying to catch his breath when he was tackled again, this time, running into Rosanne. "Romishi!" His brother got off him and Zim quickly scrabbled off of Rosanne. "Rosanne, I'm so sorry, are you ok?" Romishi was fighting a burst of laughter that came out anyway as he started rolling on the ground.

Rosanne turned when she heard somebody shout Zim's name, and watched him tackle Zim. She would have laughed from the randomness, but chose not to, because it might be rude. She followed Zim. "Um, how do you know the system code for the library?" Rosanne asked. She took the book and brightly smiled. "Thanks." she told him. "I hope the librarian won't recall not checking out this book." When Rosanne saw Romishi tackle Zim and run into her, she fell on the ground. "Um, yeah, I'm alright." she smiled warmly. Seeing Romishi roll on the ground, laughing, made her a little annoyed. She was distracted from her thoughts, however, when she saw her brother coming towards them. "What's up with this guy?" Ian asked with a soft chuckle. "He's rolling on the ground like a...weirdo." her brother's face lit up with a smile, and Rosanne thought Ian had that smile stamped on his face or something, because whenever she looked at Ian, he always had that same smile on his face.

Zim laughed and held his finger to his lips, then hers. "It's our secret. I got it when I was snooping around with Romishi." He shrugged. "All you have to do it drop it off in the return box. I don't think she'll mind." Zim kicked Romishi in the leg. "Get up you idiot, you made me run into her." Romishi caught his breath and stood up, grinning stupidly. "Yeah yeah. Sorry." He did a slight bow towards Rosanne. "The name's Romishi, Love. pleased to meet you." He winked at her and Zim slapped his arm. "Cut it out. Her name is Rosanne." Romishi glanced up at Ian. "What are you grinning about? Would you like me to tackle you too?" Zim put his hand over his eyes. "Ignore him." Romishi laughed. "Ah come on, I'm just messing around."

"I won't tell." Rosanne promised with a nod. She watched Zim kick Romishi. "Pleased to meet me? He just knocked me over." Rosanne thought. But, being polite, Rosanne just nodded. "Um, nice to meet you?" she told him. Ian shook his head. "Sure, go ahead and tackle me. I don't really care." he smiled brightly. "I'm Ian," the boy stated, then turned back to Rosanne. "You coming?" Ian asked his sister. Rosanne nodded and beckoned for Zim to follow them, and if Zim wanted, he could bring Romishi, too. Though Rosanne didn't really want Romishi to come along...

Zim smiled at her, glad she hadn't said anything to Romishi that might've set him off. Romishi raised an eyebrow but Zim quickly acted before Romishi could say or do anything. "I'm Zim, and this one's already stated his name. Nice to meet you." Zim smiled at Rosanne. "I'll be right there." Zim quickly turned to Romishi. "Please keep it down, she's actually nice. Look I need someone to be around when you're with your little posse." Zim whispered through gritted teeth. It hurt Romishi a little that Zim would want to spend time with someone other than him, but he also realized he hadn't been the best friend for him either. "Alright I promise. I'll keep it down." Romishi smiled softly and Zim smiled back, glad Romishi would try. They caught up with Rosanne and Ian, Zim walking next to Rosanne and Romishi walking next to Ian. "Sory about that, I'm not very good with first impressions. Let's try again: Hi guys, I'm Romishi Tey, Zim's brother and bestfriend." He stated the last word more at Rosanne but Zim didn't seem to notice.

"Nice to meet you, Zim." Ian nodded. "I like your name." Ian was about to add a few more words to the sentence, but shook his head. It might be mean. "It reminds me of Invader Zim." Ian thought. "It's okay." Ian shrugged. "I'm Ian Shaw, and this is my sister, Rosanne." he repeated, not sure if they've heard him before. "I'm Rosanne's brother, and best-friend!" he exclaimed happily. Rosanne looked at her brother. She wasn't sure if she considered him her best-friend, because Ian had a ton of new friends and usually hung with them after school. "Yeah!" she smiled happily anyways, and shifted her backpack. She started down the sidewalk with her brother following her footsteps. "No after school activity?" Rosanne asked her brother curiously. "Nope."

Zim smiled. "Thanks." Romishi smirked. "He dressed up as Invader Zim one time. It was awesome." Zin laughed. "For Halloween." Romishi put his hands in his pockets. "I don't think I've seen you two around. Just move in?" Zim smiled lightly at Rosanne as if saying, 'See he can be nice'.

Ian was a little surprised about hearing about Zim dressing up as Invader Zim for Halloween. It was like Romishi read his mind. "Yeah." Ian nodded his head. "We moved in a few days ago." Rosanne nodded, smiling.

Romishi smirked. "Cool. Hey dude, this is really random, but I have a brother name Eian. Another brother named Ian, but it's said with an I sound instead if an 'Ee'." Zim smiled at Rosanne. He didn't mind if his brother did a lot of talking, he was actually glad Romishi wasn't getting on her nerves.
