Bill. A word of advice: Never make a deal with a lonely demon who wants a place to stay.

After returning from the dreamscape, Bill had been different. He thought Mabel was his girlfriend, and claimed he was part squirrel.

But that's only ONE part of this weird story. Mabel winced in fear that it was Bill who was about to walk in the doorway. She sat knitting in front of the TV while watching 'Dream Boy High 2', where Zyler and Craz were in love with-

The narrator was knocked back out if the movie description by the look on Mabel's face. Bill was coming.

She quickly finished up her sweater with only few seconds remaining, and slipped it on over her current one. Now, she wore a sweater that bore a cross.

It was her 618th attempt in the week that she tried to keep Bill away from her, but sadly, nothing worked. And so, the now human demon ran into the living room and glomped her. "Shooting Star, Shooting Star!"

He spoke with the energy and excitement of a 7 year old. She held her head in defeat, "What is it, Bill?"

She asked warily. Bill got off of her and jumped up and down. "I found Pine Tree's secret stash of love letters to a Ice Bag!" Mabel shook her head,

"Bill anyone can find those." He placed his hand on his chin in thought, still smiling. "But has any DEMON ever found them?"

She shook her head again and warily sighed, "No, Bill. No other demon has ever found them." This was Mabel's third summer in Gravity Falls.

Dipper was staying at a friend's house back in Peidmont, he had lost most hope in solving the few remaining mysteries of Book 3, and he found it pointless in returning.

Too bad he wasn't here now, because Mabel surely needed him. Bill looked up and glared at the ceiling, "She doesn't need Pine Tree!"

He spoke in an annoyed and very loud voice. "She has ME!" Mabel shook her head, "Why do you keep talking to these so called 'Upper Forces', Bill?"

He had a still annoyed look on his face, "It's the 'Narrator' first off. And it's because she keeps saying stupid stuff like-" he was cut off by a knocking at the front door. Thank goodness the narrator thought of something quick,

he had put a huge dent into the fourth wall. Mabel went to answer it, hoping for the best. The door creaked open to reveal a smiling Dipper Pines.

"Hey, Mabel." He spoke happily. Mabel brightened at this, until she saw the weird look on her twin's face. She prepared for questioning.

"Mabel, you look seriously sleep-deprived. You alright?" He started, "And who's that... Guy back there?" He pointed to Bill. Bill skipped merrily to the door, "I'm B-" Mabel slapped her hand over his mouth. "His name is Brandon. Brandon..." She looked around, and spotted Willow Tree some ways behind her brother. "Brandon Willow."

She said, still fearing that Dipper would find out who he REALLY was. And just randomly now, the narrator decided it was time to point out Mabel's appearance.

Her hair was a little feathered, in a ruffled sort of way. There were purple/blue/dark grey circles under her eyes, showing her loss of sleep. And she wore a pink skirt with her Cross sweater, the back-round white and the cross pink. Her headband was white, and out of place on her head.

Even at 14, she still wore her precious sweaters.

Dipper peered in a little more, "Where's Stan? Can I come in?" Mabel nodded, "Stan's out trying to trick the Gleefuls into giving him money for free. God knows why."

She had recently lost her cheeriness, due to this terrible and sleep-depriving past week.

-FLASHBACK-

Mabel had finished the chanting, and went down on her knees, her eyes glowing blue. "Egassem Sdrawkcab, Egassem Sdrawkcab, Egassem Sdrawkcab!"

She fell completely at the sound of evil laughter, Bill's evil laughter. He appeared. Mabel shook her head and stood back up, staring at the triangle. He stared back.

This lasted for about ten minutes, until Bill finally spoke up. "Well, kid! If you're not gonna Propose a deal, I'll be leaving."

He started to float away, Mabel's eyes widened, and she ran a feet feet below to where he was. "I want to make a deal!" He stopped in his tracks, turning back around to face her. "What kind of deal, Shooting Star?" She smiled. "I want to make you a sweater!" He raised his lone eyebrow, "Why would you want to do THAT?" She shrugged, "I just... I've always wanted to make you a sweater."

Her smile turned into a grin. He nodded, or in his case, shook his body. He didn't really have a head. "You just owe me a favor!" He said, floating down to the girl.

His hand caught that amazing blue fire, and she shook it hastily. He let go and floated back up. "One more thing, Shooting Star." She nodded. "When I come to get my favor, I'll be different. This has made me so happy!" He said with genuine joy. Then, he disappeared.

-END OF FLASHBACK-

Mabel shook the worry and regret from her face, and replaced it with a tired smile. "Come on in, Dip." She said, moving from the door to let him In.

Dipper stepped in, gripping his backpack. "So Brandon, where do you live?" He asked, eyeing said boy.

'Brandon' took the chance to talk before Mabel could cover his mouth again. "Actually, I'm staying here with you guys!" He said, making an arm arc to show the 'magic' of the moment as he put it in his head. Dipper raised an eyebrow, "How exactly? Grunkle Stan doesn't like umm... How to put this..."

He was a goner. Lost in thought. Mabel answered for him instead, "It's not like we have a choice."

Realizing what she had said, she bolted out of the room. Running for her sanity and safety. Dipper raised an eyebrow, this wasn't like her.

Hello! Sorry, I just needed a place to dump random ideas of mine. This is just part one of a random story. By the way, if there are any Professor Layton fans out there, read "Randall's Road Trip". It's hilarious. And awesome.
