Party: Chapter 1

"Wow, so many cars! This has got to be a great party Dip!"

"Yeah well, we're gonna have to park blocks away. Remember the corner of Olive and Lincoln Mabe." and Dipper put the Scion XB in park.

As they walked in the direction of the live music Mabel noticed Dipper still wasn't smiling.

"What's the matter bro? This many cars means many women wink wink!" and she nudged his shoulder. He smiled and looked at her.

"Ha! Yeah. But uh…"

"Yeah? What?"

"This many cars also means that the cops will show up as soon as we walk in the door."

Mabel laughed."Not yet, the whirly bird would be in the sky if it was that soon."

"Hmmm yeah, you're right." and he smiled. They both picked up the pace of walking. The band was getting louder and a truck drove past in the same direction with a keg in the back with the guys hollering and whistling at Mabel.

"Hey sweetheart! If your boyfriend passes out come look me up!" and the truck and boys disappeared around the corner.

Dipper looked at Mabel smiling.

"Haha! Boyfriend. Right."

Mabel grabbed his arm with both hands. "Right!" And smiled back. Dipper felt oddly happy with his sister holding him, knowing that making an entrance with a pretty girl might make him more attractive to other girls. They approached the party house humming along to the music.
