A.N: Hey guys! I'm Abby!
Andrew: and I'm Sporto!
Me: and this is our first ever Gravity Falls fanfic! This is going to be after the series which of course right now is in the middle of a huge cluster of events. But we'll bend the rules a little bit and change a little bit of that stuff up. We'll keep Stan's brother in this also :) This story will have some love triangles and a few OC's of ours and a whole lot of action and adventure. Okay, let's get this party started!
It was a beautiful day in Oregon. The sun was shining, the birds were singing. The day was calm and had a peaceful charm to it. Until...
"RUN!" Yelled the awkward 12 year old known as Dipper, he was running alongside his twin sister Mabel. The twins were running from what looked like a gigantic monster behind them. "Keep going Mabel! Keep going!" He yelled, Mabel was panting as she continued to run as fast as her little legs would take her. Suddenly the monster slammed his hand down and picked her up.
"Aaaahhhhhh!" Mabel screamed, "Dipper!" Dipper stopped running and turned to the monster and saw that his sister was in his clutches. "Dipper help me!" Mabel screamed,
"You let go of my sister!" He yelled, The monster laughed in his face, "Oh yeah? What's a small kid like you going to do?" Then the monster's other hand came down on him and grabbed him too. Dipper screamed, the monster brought the two closer to his mouth and the both of them were about to be eaten when...
'Beep beep beep beep'
An alarm clock rung in a sleeping teenagers' bedroom. A hand slammed down on the alarm shutting it off. The teenager groggily sat up and rubbed his eyes with his arm and looked around the room. He looked over at his calendar hanging on the wall opposite to his bed. He climbed out of bed and walked to the other side of the room and looked at the calendar. The month was June and it was marked the 1st with a red circle.
"Today's the day." The teen said, he slouched to his dresser and grabbed some clothes and got dressed. Today was his and Mabel's birthday. Today, he and Mabel were officially 16 years old. Even though they were now older, their faces haven't changed a bit. They've only gotten taller and Mabel's hair grew a little longer. Speaking of Mabel, she was so excited about turning 16. Dipper, on the other hand, was...well content...he just felt like something was missing from his life like..there was this emptiness inside of him that he couldn't really get rid of. He walked out into the upstairs hallway and went down the stairs holding the rail as he went down. He entered the kitchen and sat down at the table where his dad was reading a newspaper and his mother was at the stove flipping pancakes. On the table was a bowl of cereal and a plate of hot pancakes and some orange juice waiting for him.
"Morning Dipper! Happy Birthday Sweetie!" The mother said in a cheerful manner, "Thanks mom." Dipper said miserably, "How are you feeling on your birthday champ?" The father asked, "Just fine dad." Dipper replied again miserably,
Just then, a young female who was the same age as Dipper came sliding down the railing of the stairs.
"GOOD MORNING!" yelled naive girl Mabel, she continued to slide down the rail cheering and then flew off the end and went flying and landed with a crash in the living room. One of the couches broke her fall.
"I'm okay." She said in a painful voice, she then came into the kitchen and sat down in another one of the chairs. She was thin and clad in a peach pink sweater that went slightly off the shoulder. Her shoulders showing the straps of a hot pink tank top underneath with dark blue skinny jeans and peach pink flats to match her sweater. She was also wearing rainbow feathered earrings and a gold necklace around her neck and a fake pink flower in her hair.
"Morning Mabel. Happy Birthday princess." Their father greeted, "Happy Birthday dear!" Their mother said turning to smile at the teen, "Thanks mom, thanks dad." Mabel said cheerfully, the mother set a plate of pancakes and a small plate with a slice of toasted bread smothered in jam in front of Mabel. She looked at Dipper. "Morning bro!" She said in her cheerful voice, Dipper just stirred his cereal sadly. "Hey Mabel." He said still depressed,
"What's wrong little bro?" Mabel asked with her cheerful smile switching to a sad face,
"I don't know, Mabel..." Dipper sighed, he set his spoon to the side and stared down at the table. "I just feel like something's missing from my life...I just can't figure out what..."
Mabel immediately smiled cheerfully again and gave her brother a playful punch in the arm. "Aww come on Dipper, lighten up...It's our birthday we're 16 years old! We're old enough to drive and go wherever we want to go, do whatever we want to do! We're even getting our licenses today it'll be awesome!"
Dipper thought for a minute and then his face displayed a weak smile. "Yeah I guess you're right..." He said,
"Yeah!" Mabel cheered, she got up from the table and ran for the bathroom. "Come on bro we gotta finish getting ready for school!" She said ambitiously, that was another thing that Mabel was excited about. Today was also the last day of school so today wasn't just their birthday, tomorrow would be the first official day of summer. Mabel was excited for that too while Dipper, once again was not really feeling the excitement. Every summer break he had for these past four years have been...well..kind of the same...everyday was going over to friends' houses and playing video games with them or watching funny Internet videos. If his friends were busy or not home, he would either hang out with Mabel or just chill out and watch T.V shows on his own.
"Come on Dipper the bus will be here any minute!" Mabel cried grabbing her backpack and slipping it on like she was really in a hurry. Dipper sighed and grabbed his bag off of the back of his chair and slipped it on and carried it one strap style.
"Have a good day kids!" Their mother happily chirped, the two twins boarded the bus which was about to depart. A couple of kids from next door boarded before them and they followed being the last kids to board.
"Hey miss bus driver!" Mabel said more cheerful than ever, "I can't believe today's the last day of school! Oh it seems like just yesterday that you were picking us up for our first day!"
"Just take your seat." The bus driver said in a disinterested and deadpan tone, Dipper began to push Mabel down the aisle. "I am so sorry for my sister's behavior." Dipper said looking at the bus driver, "Whatever..." The bus driver replied, the twins walked down the aisle to find good seats and the bus driver switched the bus into forward motion and they took off.
"Ow. Sorry. Excuse me. Pardon." Mabel said as she tried to scooch past seats all the while trying to keep her balance for the bus' rolling along the road made the ride a little bumpy for her. The bus then hit a bump and Dipper fell into an empty seat and the bus hit another bump and Mabel fell backwards and he caught her and held her by her arms.
Mabel's face then turned a light pale green looking like she was about to toss her cookies.
"Oh...that was NOT fun at all." She groaned sickly, she suddenly gagged and covered her mouth with her hand. "I think I'm going to be sick!" She yelled, she scrambled to the bus seat next to Dipper which had a window conveniently opened and stuck her head out and hurled. Everyone else on the bus heard Mabel's painful hacking and gagging as she threw up. Dipper looked around and saw everyone shooting them death glares for disturbing them and disgusting them with Mabel's repulsive performance.
Dipper gulped and blushed a little bit and laughed nervously, "Haha, sorry guys." He said stumbling over his words, Mabel stuck her head back in and sat down in her seat and clutched her stomach in pain breathing heavily in and out. Dipper shot her a death glare and she replied with a shrug, "What?"
The bus stopped again and the doors to the bus opened. A few more kids stepped on the bus but there were only two boys who Mabel and Dipper were familiar with. One was Dipper's height and had swept dirty blonde hair wearing a teal t shirt with a dark blue stripe going across the upper arm and chest with long white sleeves underneath along with some jeans and red and white sneakers. The other one was a taller kid with dark brown hair that was styled in a shaved cut and a black wife beater on with a red and white plaid jacket with a pocket on the left hand side to go over it. The armholes in the jacket looked like the sleeves were cut off and were showing his bare lightly muscled arms, the ends of the jacket were tattered looking as well. He was also clad in jeans but they were only baggier and a lighter shade of blue. Out of the left pocket hung a mini chain and he was wearing red and white sneakers as well.
They walked over to Dipper and Mabel's bus seats and the boys shot Dipper a grin.
"Hey Dip! Happy Birthday bro!" The boy with the sideswept hair said happily, he held up his hand for a high five. Dipper smiled and high fived the boy. "Thanks Chase." He said, then Chase shook Mabel's hand. "You too Mabel." He smiled, the tougher looking kid walked up next to Chase and said, "Dipper!"
"Ryder!" Dipper said cheerfully, Dipper stood up and the two bro hugged and Ryder told him Happy Birthday. Dipper, Ryder, and Chase had been best friends ever since preschool. They all just met up one day and teamed up to take down the preschool bully who had tossed each of them around. Ever since that day they had been a team and they eventually let Mabel in. Chase was sort of the good looking brainiac that everyone would know while Ryder was the tough one who would beat up anyone who threatened him or his friends. He never harmed Mabel though because even he wouldn't stoop so low to beat up a girl.
"Hey Ryder." Mabel waved with a smile, "Oh hey Mabel…" Ryder smiled as soon as he saw the twin girl, "Happy Birthday."
"Thank you Ryder, that's very sweet of you." Mabel smiled back, Mabel didn't know this but Ryder had a crush on her ever since they were kids. He loved just how nice and sweet she was to everyone, including him. But he never asked her out thinking that it would just be best if they remained friends and he was okay with that. Plus, he knew she probably wouldn't date someone who liked to fight and beat people up.
But what he didn't know...What nobody knew was that Mabel had a huge crush on Chase ever since they turned 13. One day the family cat, Mr. Fluffy, got caught up in a tree and Chase just happened to be passing by on his bike and managed to get him down for Mabel. Mabel had a crush on him ever since.
"So, you guys coming to the party tonight?" Dipper asked, "Yeah!" Both boys cheered, Dipper and the guys began to slap their hands together like they were doing some type of secret handshake. After 3-5 seconds of hand clapping, the pattern of their hand clapping was finally ended with them raising their hands up in the air and them making sounds with their mouths imitating explosions. Then they started up a new conversation about a videogame that Chase was close to beating.
"Yeah, it took me three months but I'm finally going to beat the final level!" Chase said sounding excited, "Dude, no way none of us has been able to reach that level!" Dipper said amazed yet in shock from what his friend told him, Mabel rolled her eyes and saw her friends sitting across the way. When Dipper was busy with the guys or Mabel just needed space from them, she would hang with her female friends. They would talk about boys and obsess over boy bands like Sev'ral Timez even though Mabel now knew they were fake, she didn't tell the girls that anyway. They would also have sleepovers, get ice cream, and do each others' hair, faces, and nails.
"Hi girls!" Mabel smiled and waved, "Mabel!" Said a girl with short brunette red hair. She looked like the twin of one of Pacifica's friends. She even had the same clothes as her.
"Molly!" Mabel said high fiving the girl, "Yeah Happy Birthday Mabel!" Said the dark brunette sitting next to Molly, she had hazel eyes and was clad in a turquoise tank top and jean capris with purple sneakers. "Janet." Mabel said fistbumping her, "Hello Mabel, alles Gute zum Geburtstag." Said the girl Sitting in front of Molly and Janet, the girls looked up to see her looking at them from over her bus seat.
"I'm sorry Claudia, what was that?" Mabel asked cupping her right ear with her hand, "alles Gute zum Geburtstag...It's "Happy Birthday" in German." Claudia explained, Claudia was the typical brainy girl that you would know. She wore her hair in a bun and wore classes that would make someone look like a geek and wore a sweater and skirt.
"Oh, thanks Claudia, that's very thoughtful." Mabel smiled, Claudia hung out with them too. She would do hair and nails and have sleepovers with them. She also did other things with them like helping them out with homework or telling them what activities were safe to do and what ones were not safe to do. She was a little odd and a little too smart for them but the girls still liked her okay.
Janet scooched over to her left and Mabel sat down in the space between Janet and Molly.
Janet nudged Mabel's arm. "Hey Mabel, Dipper sure is looking rather cheerful today." She whispered, "Yeah, he is now but he was kinda depressed this morning." Mabel explained, "Really? Why?" Molly asked, "I don't know. He said he felt as if something was missing from his life." Mabel answered, "Oh." Both girls said together, "So, are you coming to the party tonight?" She asked changing the subject, "Yeah!" Molly said excitedly, "You bet!" Janet smiled giving her a wink, "I'm still coming to Mabel." Claudia said looking over her bus seat again, "Great!" Mabel said happily, "This will be the the best. Sweet 16. EVER!" Mabel shouted in a cheering voice,
The bus came to a complete stop in front of the school and all of the students on board got off. Dipper, Mabel, and their friends exited the bus and entered the school hoping that the day would end soon so their summer would begin.
