Gazing into each other's eyes

See any of the other chapters for a disclaimer. If you need one by now, you have issues. But enough of that. Today's prompt is "gazing into each others eyes" and I don't know how long it will be, as this is another one better for fanart than fanfic but here goes nothing. So enough of this A/N, on with the fic!

Dib and Tak were just laying in his bed staring at the ceiling. He had just put a map of the universe that they had painted under Tak's guidance on the ceiling. They had taken midnight blue paint and then for the galaxies and the stars in glow in the dark paint. It was amazing how much Dib did not know from just looking though his telescope, even though it was very powerful. Tak told him things that he had never even known. He hadn't known what the famous galaxies like the Eagle Head and Eye of God looked like up close nor did he know about the types of aliens that lived there. It was a fascinating story that he had to paint himself. He had put where Irk was on there and while Tak scoffed at the idea, Dib had said that a map was a map and a planet could not be left out if most of the population were idiots. At this, Tak had to agree as Earth was on many of the maps she had in her collection. She told Dib where Dirt was but at that one, she had to leave the room for a little bit until he was done. She could not bear to see the name of the planet she was wrongly forced to work on.

"It's lovely work." Tak said. "Even though you put Irk and Dirt on there..."

"A map is a map my dear." Dib said. "Plus it gives me a good insight to the size of the Irken Empire. You say they had nothing to do with that Tamaran planet over there?"

"Yeah. A peace treaty was signed. The Tamarainans are very peaceful but they can kick your butt if they are crossed and to be honest, their weakest soldiers could take out most of the Irken elites. The Tallest knew this and left them alone." Tak explained.

"Well, Earth is pretty far out of the way, so unless they get a wild and irrational idea in their heads, they won't stop here. Besides, you don't Invade where you sent an exile." Dib said looking at the small Irken symbols next to the names of Invaded planets.

"That's good news for me." Tak said as she looked at the map. "I don't give a fuck about Irk anymore and all I want is a life with you." She took Dib's hand in hers a small ring glittering in the fading light.

"You know that ring was my mother's. It was given to me after her funeral and my dad kept it safe for the girl I wanted to spend the rest of my life with." Dib said as he turned off Tak's disguise, looking into her violet eyes, catching the last rays of sunset in them as they reflected off her eyes. It was the most beautiful sight he could ever think of. He had given her the ring as he started college, working on a double PhD of Biology and Astronomy, legit degrees his dad would help him with but he could use to further his paranormal investigation. With his intelligence he had been able to breeze through most of the required classwork and work on his PhD thesis at his dad's labs.

"Well that means so much." Tak said with a slight tear forming in her eyes. She knew the regard that Dib had for his mother so it meant much more to her. She looked into his eyes seeing the slight glimmer that had no reason to be there logically. His deep hazel eyes held so much to her that she could not quite explain. Many had said the eyes were the window to the soul and she could tell that Dib had a good soul. He had respected her and her past and over looked the fact that she was Irken, even though he had spent a lot of time trying to stop Zim. In fact they got together on the philosophy of "the enemy of my enemy is my friend." But it had grown from an alliance to something deeper. Night started to fall and the glow in the dark stars were reflecting in the wide glossiness of Tak's purple eyes.

"I can see the stars in your eyes." Dib smiled.

"I have seen those stars with my eyes." Tak said.

"Well, you captured the beauty of them in your eyes." Dib said kissing Tak on the lips.

"Your eyes have the soul of an angel in them. We never really believed in them on Irk, but I absorbed some of the local culture." Tak smiled.

"I love you Tak." Dib said as he held her close.

"I love you too Dib." Tak said as she kissed him deeply.
