My mind felt fuzzy.
We laid on each other, enjoying each other's company. I was reading the journal, resting my head on a pillow while Mabel relaxingly flipped through her (thick) sticker album.
It was circling my mind rapidly like a cat chasing a red pointer light.
I tried to focus on the journal, the mysteries and its otherworldly content. However, the feeling wouldn't leave me.
"Hey Mabel," I said, voice unrealizingly coming out of my mouth.
It sounded deadpan with a cloak of unsteadiness.
"Yeah?" she replied, bubbly as ever.
It felt like it took a lot of courage to admit. To say.
To express my thoughts.
The heavy feeling.
Dipper took a long breath, then spoke,"How... um... do you think... we'll remain like this...?"
"What chu' talking about, Dipstick? You're speaking gibberish," her hazel brown eyes glanced towards her erratic twin brother, curious.
"I mean- It's... it's always fun to be with you-"
"Oh course, silly. What's the matter?"
Her optimistic, energetic personality always manages to comfort the pale-skinned boy, making him momentarily smile.
Dipper looked up.
"We play, we hang out, we go on supernatural adventures, we do stupid stuff. But... will we always?"
Mabel kept silence, not sure to what to say. She looked to her right, thinking.
"And do I want us to be like that forever?"
"?" That caught the brunette's attention.
He didn't know why he felt like this.
He didn't know why he was so worried.
He didn't know why it hurts him to say it.
It just does to him.
"Eventually we'll both grow up. Things change. Marriage, jobs, kids, all that stuff."
"Yeah. What's the problem there?"
He closed the journal, took a long sigh, and laid on the pillow with a relaxed posture.
He looked Mabel in the eye and continued talking.
"'Cuz I think when that eventually happens, we won't be as close as we are now."
He tried to say it without making it awkward or hard for his sister to understand.
"I like this life. I don't know if I want to change. It just-"
"Shh..." she whispered as she lay her finger over his lips.
"You worry too much, Dipper. Think about it. We both have friends and spend time with them. We even fall in love to the people we like. Well, relationships are huge commitments, aren't they? That doesn't mean we can't be close to each other anymore. We'll always be. I mean, we're twins!" she reassured Dipper.
Dipper was quiet. His expression showed that he was sincere yet sad.
"Why were so worried anyway?"
Dipper grabbed onto Mabel and held her tightly.
He started to sniffle, and tears streamed down his face.
"I have friends everywhere, but you're the only best friend I got."
Mabel was teary-eyed. Tears began to form as she embraced her brother firmly.
"I'm nothing without you."
"Silly..."
Welp, how about it? Before I leave messages and shit, I would like to credit the video this story is based off of:
watch?v=B4PqG2f8-NU
This story by itself has assured a couple of things:
- Something uploaded by me in a while.
- Something that's not rated T for once.
- Non-romance.
- Friendship.
- Hopefully being active.
- Probably better writing from here on out.
Well, something like this from me is different, as I've said before. The platonic/sibling relationship between Dipper and Mabel without twincest, huh? Welp, guess that somehow worked.
