The note: it sat there, crumpled in a ball.
"Well" Dipper said, "that's everything I've ever worked for, ruined…" He then began to think about what had happened previously this day…
Elsewhere…
Wendy sat downstairs, as far as dipper knew she had gone home, while she sat she thought about what she had just read, what had just happened. Between the small sobs that escaped her, she then began to think about what had happened earlier…
Dipper's POV
Dipper woke up to Mabel's face peeking out from behind the side of his bed, "Aaaah!" Dipper shouted as he leaped backwards, banging his head on the wall.
"Jeez Dip, why'd you get so scared?" mabel asked, propping Waddles up next to her so that her looked as though he was chilling out next to her, "sorry, just wasn't expecting you, to be here" Dipper replied climbing off his bed, getting ready to go down and work as he called it, really he just wanted to see Wendy.
"Dip, I know you better than anyone, as I am your sister" Mabel rambled, "when you said you, you sounded like you were expecting someone else…" Mabel stated as she began to smile, "a certain Wendy I suppose" she whispered, making kissy faces when she was done speaking. "N,n,no, w,what are you talking about?" Dipper asked, acting as though he didn't have a massive crush on the tall redhead.
Dipper then went downstairs and waited for Mabel to take her shift, as soon as she took her shift he ran upstairs, he sat on a foldable chair and propped up a folded up table, he got a tin of pencils and a notepad full of paper and began writing.
About 37 or so failed attempts later at a letter to Wendy, he stopped, stared at the red glass window and pulled out the original letter, It had many scribbled out bits and luckily was readable, it read: Dear Wendy
How do I put this? Wendy, When I first came here to Gravity Falls all those weeks ago, back in piedmont I had/have no friends, anyways, that first day I met you, woah! I felt only the most joy, happiness and every single good emotion. I knew I had made a friend for life! but such emotions come with a price, Wendy I like you, see the thing is… That's a lie, I would use stronger words but you know, age difference and stuff. Look, what I'm trying to say is I like you, and I need to know what you feel back, I don't expect anything, I can barely write this letter, because I am scared I will ruin what friendship we have left.
Kind Regards, Dipper.
"Something is missing…" Dipper thought to himself, packing his stuff away, as he was about to go downstairs Mabel screamed "DIPPER!, WADDLES IS GONE!" Dipper ran downstairs, hoping to help Mabel before she started knocking her head against a pole for all her life, as he had seen in a different timeline.
Wendys POV
Wendy's morning had been uneventful, sitting at the same musty desk, with the same customers coming in and out, at least when Mabel screamed something about Waddles being lost It was an excuse for Wendy to get Soos to work the counter, she didn't follow the twins she instead went upstairs to their room.
When she got inside their room she felt a twinge of guilt, then again, Mabel had said that she should look for something by dippers desk, she bent down by Dipper's corner, or Dipping sauce as she called him, she noticed two bins full of crumpled up paper.
Was this what Mabel meant? Uh, who cares, the only only things she could find in here was Dipper's notes or something, she began rifling through the bins contents, most were illegible scrawls on paper, until she starting being able to read some of the notes…
Dear Wendy
I just want to say I ########
Huh? Thats weird, why would write something to me? She pondered for a second, then continued
Dear Wendy
Hey, I just wanted to say…
Dear Wendy
well ##### like #### a lot….
and there were many more like that, then a possibility for what these letters mean popped into Wendy's head, "No…" she said to herself and dismissed the idea as false until she found it, the Letter of all Letters, the original. Dear Wendy

When Wendy saw this her heart melted and then was ripped into two, It was soft, nice and sweet, but at the same time, impossible! what feelings could she have for someone three years younger than her!, Age is just a number you know, yeah you will have to take it slow, but it'll work out in the end! "UGH!" wendy shouted to herself as she walked away to lie on the couch and watch TV, while a rogue tear ran down her face, making many more come flooding out.
She didn't even bother telling someone to take her shift, there were no tourists there and there were only like ten minutes until closing, "Wendy?", Stan walked into the room, an actual look of concern on his face, "Wow! He's showing concern for something other than money and tourists!" she thought to herself, having a mental laugh.
"Yes" she replied, still laying on the couch facing Stan now, he could see the tears running down her face...
