As Dipper and Mabel are about to start a new chapter in their lives, something threatens to destroy the very foundations of his heart, mind and their family.
Chapter One.
"This is another of those nights" Dipper thought to himself while lying on his bed. He has a phone in his right hand. He connects a pair of headphones and looks through the live tiles searching for the one named "Music + Videos". He then presses the Random music play button. It goes to a relatively unknown song, which goes in tune with the blue feeling of the night. "Watching terrible TV, it kills al thought. Getting spacier than an astronaut". Dipper knows he feels lonely. This is the last summer before the twins start college.
Mabel got herself into CalArts, which as defined by Mabel, is the super-ultra-mega-best thing that ever happened to her. Dipper will study Mechanical Engineering, which was kind of surprising for his parents. He got a hefty scholarship, so money wasn't really a big problem. Both twins would be moving at the end of the summer, each to an apartment near their respective college. Renting, of course. Both would be working as well, Mabel in a cafeteria, and Dipper as a Computer Repair guy in a Tech Shop.
While her apartment was 5 minutes away walking from CalArts, Dipper had only found something about 30 minutes away, so in Dipper and Mabel's birthday, he got gifted the keys to an old light-blue Nissan. The car was slightly older than himself, but it had everything he wanted or needed: a radio with USB input, air con, and electric windows. The fact that it was a stick [manual] didn't bothered him at all, he liked the mechanical feeling of it, the direct connection between him and the machine.
Back to his dark room, three in the morning, many things roamed in his mind. He felt like he wasted his high school. Stan had told him that high school was the best stage of life. However, Dipper felt awkward around people. He had many friends, of course, but he felt out of place all the time. Mabel always tried to cheer him up, but sometimes he would just fake a smile to make her happy. He couldn't balance a part of him that enjoyed being alone with that that would make him feel so… lonely. So he tried to refugee in books, and he did. But the "out of place feeling" wouldn't let go. Sometimes he thought why his friends hanged out with him, and felt a little ouchie when he saw photos of them in things he wasn't invited, or couldn't go at the time.
Through the headphones "I want to know what is like on the inside of love. Standing at the gates, I see the beauty above". He then thought if it was because he never got a girlfriend. The first one [and last one, at that time] happened in his first year of middle school. "How pathetic" said to himself. And they broke up in the evening before Valentine's Day. He quickly closed his eyes, trying to forget that. It's not that he never liked a girl since, it was just that he saw no reason to have a relationship, whether it was from him not being prepared, they were too young, it was hormones, she is not really my type, or other things like that.
He was stuck in overdrive, and that drained the last drop of energy he had left this night. After everything that happened today, he was really anxious, but he tried to mask it, to ignore it as best as he could. He soon was asleep.
