"Hey guys. I'm here for work."
She looked around and saw that no one was here.
"Oh riiiiiight. We have the day off today."
Trixie walked over to the 'Staff only' door and knocked. Stan opened the door.
"Oh it's you. Mabels in the living room watching t.v."
"Thanks Stan."
Trixie passed Stan and saw Mabel sitting upside down on the couch.
"Hay Mabel, What's up? or down in your case."
"Nothin, waiting for Dipper to wake up."
Trixie looked at the owl clock.
"It's like 11:00, isn't he up around 9:00?"
Mabel flipped rightside up and stood up.
"Ya he is, mabey I should- owowow blood rush."
"*snort* Come on, mabey he was up late reading again."
When the girls got upstares, they entered the twins bed room. They saw a lump under Dippers bed covers.
"Come on Dipstick. Time to wake up."
She shock Dippers sholder lightly, in responce Dipper moaned. He sat up, and girls gasped. Dipper was pale, he was shivering, and his nose was even redder then normal.
"Good greff Dipper what happened to you?"
"Nothing, I'm f-f-fine."
Dipper got out of bed with shaking knees.
"I may not know much about human health but you don't look 'f-f-fine'."
"Trixies right, You need to get back in bed bro."
Dipper put on his favorite hat.
"Mabel, I'm FINE."
Dipper left the room, heading down stares. When at the bottom Dipper stopped in his tracks, his face turned green, and covered his mouth.
"Uuuuum, Dipper? Are you-"
Before Trixie could finish Dipper darted past them and ran into the bathroom, shutting into the door behind him. Mabel waked over to the door and knocked on it.
"Dipper, you okay?"
"*Pant pant* I'm fine. I'm just a little-"
A loud cough intrupter Dipper along with the sound of throwing up.
"You know what? I think I'm going back to bed when I'm done here."
"Good idea."
"Yesh, 101. Sorry Dipper but you're sick."
Dipper was back in bed now he was done tausing his cookie. Mabel took his tempreture while Trixie got a bucket for the side of his bed. Just to be safe.
"So what's sickness does he have?"
"Well, I think he has the flu."
Trixie just stared at her.
"It's bacisly throwing up."
Trixie looked at Dipper. She felt bad for him, he looked so missrable.
"A-a-a-chew!"
"*Snort* You do sneeze like a kitten."
Dipper glared at her.
"Right, not helping, sorry."
Stan entered the room.
"What's wrong with shorty here."
"He has the flu."
"Oh, well I need to run some 'arons' and I won't be back till, what ever."
Stan left.
"If you ask me, I think he left just so he didn't have to take care of Dipper."
"Well, I guess it's just me now."
"Heck no, I'm staying here. I'm not leaving when one of my friends is sick."
Dipper gave a small smile and lyed down.
"Thanks Trixie."
While Dipper slept, Trixie and Mabel tryed to entertain themselfs. Mabel dug out her love magazines and shared them with Trixie.
'How you know you have a crush.'
"Mabel, what's a crush?"
"A crush is when you like someone alot."
"As friends?"
"No, more. Kinda how Gideon feels about me except a less crazy."
Trixie looked back at the magazine.
'First sign, blushing when you look at him.'
She looked across the room and saw Dipper sleeping. Despite his sick state, he looked so peaceful in his sleep. Trixie put her hand on her cheek and relised they were warm. She looked back at the magazine 'secound sign, Laughing when he does something you think is cute.'
Thinking back she did laugh at Dipper when he sneezed.
'third sign, lying awake at night thinking about him.'
The night when the twins found out her secret, she was up all night thinking about Dipper.
"oh, crud."
"What?"
"Nothing!" Trixie closed the magazine and her wings apeared.
"I'm board anyway. Want me to get something to eat."
"Sure. By the way, how does your wings go through your shirt without taring it?"
Trixie opened her mouth but closed it.
"Uuuuum, good question."
Trixie opened the window and flew out. Half an hour later she came back with a bag a food while levitating three drinks.
"Hey, anything happen while I was gone?"
"Dipper got sick again."
"Aw, well I guess I can put this burger I got for him in the fridge."
When They where done eating Mabel left to take her pig Waddles for a walk. Trixie lied down in Mabels bed and Stared into space. She was thinking about that magazine again, wondering if it was true.
'Uhg, don't fall for it Trixie. If you do it will only end bad.'
Trixie then heard Dipper moan. She sat up and looked at him. He was shivering while a frighten look was on his face. She got up and walked to his bed, she figured that he was having a nightmare. Trixie knew that waking him up would only make it harder to make him go back to sleep. So she placed her hand on his and started to rub her thumb on the back of his hand. She could feel her cheeks get warm. Dipper still looked scared so Trixie started to sing a song she thought could help
A la nanita nana nanita ella nanita ella Mi nina tiene sueno bendito sea, bendito sea (repeat)
Fuentecita que corre clara y sonara Ruisenor que en la selva cantando llora Calla mientras la cuna se balansea A La nanita nana, nanita ella
A la nanita nana nanita ella nanita ella Mi nina tiene sueno bendito sea, bendito sea
Fuentecita que corre clara y sonora Ruisenor que en la selva cantando llara Calla Mientras la cuna se balansea A la nanita nana, nanita ella
She couldn't really remember where she heard the song from, mabey a movie. After she was done Dipper calmed down. Trixie used her magic and levitated a blanket from the closet and placed it on Dipper. She looked at him and he looked so peaceful. She bent done and pecked him on the cheek, feeling her cheek's getting warmer. Even in his sleep, Dippers cheeks turned a soft pink.
"Ahem."
"Eep!"
Trixie turned around and saw Mabel. She had her arms crossed and she was smiling.
"How much did you see?"
"Mostly the song, blanket, and the kiss. I didn't know you had a thing for Dipper."
"Grr, I don't!"
"then why-"
"Idon'tknowokay!"
Trixie flooped onto Mabels bed. Mabel walked over to her.
"Is there a problem?"
"Yes, I have a crush on Dipper and I'm not happy about it."
"Why? Because he has a crush on Wendy?"
"Nooooooo, I'm 1200 years old, he's 12. Do the math."
"Oooooh."
Mabel sat next to her.
"Well, it's just a crush. It's not like you have to tell him or anything."
Trixie sat up.
"Really?"
Mabel nodded and Trixie sighed in reliefe.
"Good, I don't want to make everything weird between us."
"I don't think you can make anything weirder then this town."
"*snort* haha, good point."
After a few hours Stan came home so Trixie desided to go home before it got dark out. The next day when she came back. Dipper felt better enough to eat something without pucking five minutes later.
"Glad you're feeling better Dipstick."
"Me too, still can't walk far without my knees buckling."
Mabel can in the room with a bowl of steaming soup.
"Gruncle Stan ran off again, so it's just the three of us."
She handed the bowl to Dipper. Trixie let her wings appear.
"Well, since Stan will be gone all day. I'll work on my magic."
She pulled out a book in her bag she brought with her.
"Whatcha got there?"
"This, my female human friend, is a spell book. I brough it with me so I can try out new spells and so my magic won't build up to much."
"What happens when it does?"
"Weeeeeeeeell... It isn't very pretty."
While Trixie studied, Mabel went down stares and Dipper reread his #3 book. While Dipper read a flash caght his atention. He looked over to where Trixie was but she disapeared.
"Um, Trixie?"
"WHOA!"
Trixie feel to the floor.
"Revers gravity spell, painful."
"Sorry."
Trixie sat up.
"It's fine, you still reading that thing."
What? It's a cool book."
Trixie stood up and sat on Dippers bed.
"I think it makes most mistical creatures sound like monsters. The gnomes, I can't blame the guy. But look, it says Fairys are sneeky unreliable creatures. Aperently he never meet one up close. "
Dipper chuckled but then shivered. Trixie put her hand on his head.
"You're still a little warm. Wait a munite, what's that?"
Trixie moved Dippers bangs out of the way to reveal his birthmark. He shoved her hand away from his head.
"IT'SNOTHING!"
"Oh my gosh! Now I know how you got your name! I should have known!"
Trixie started to snort. Dipper guys looked iritated.
"Go ahead and laugh. Everyone does anyway."
Trixie stopped.
"Dipper, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you. You know, you're not the only one with a weird birthmark."
He looked at her.
"Really? Can I see?"
Trixie nodded, her eyes started to glow and on her left sholder apeared a blue marking shaped like a rain drop.
"To be honest I'm the only one who has a glow in the dark birthmark, so my grandmother told me to hide it before I came here."
"Wow, lookes more like a tattoo."
"So does yours. I mean, it's a little farfetched for a human to have something like that on their skin since birth."
"That's kinda the reason why I hide it all the time."
Dipper and Trixie sat looked at Dipper and felt her cheeks get warm.
"Uh, Trixie."
"Ya."
"Why are your wings turning purple?"
She looked at her wings and relised that they were purple.
"OH, um well, you see I-"
Lucky for Trixie Mabel bursted in the room.
"You can head downstares if you want Trixie. I'll keep Dipping sause company."
When Trixie flew through the door she whispered in her ear.
"You are a life saver."
"Any time."
Trixie sat in the living room, thinking. Her wings only turn purple when she's embaresed, being shy, or just blushing and she did NOT want to tell Dipper why she was blushing. A knock at the door intrupted her train of thought. After she hid her wings she got up to awnser, no one was there.
"Ahem, down here."
She looked down to see a gnome.
"Jeff?"
"Trixie? What are you doing here?"
"My friends live here. What do you want you little troll?"
"Well, since we couldn't get you to marry us a few years back we came to ask for Mabel's hand in marrage."
Trixie picked him up by the back of the shirt.
"Not while I'm around."
She threw Jeff into some bushes. He popped back up with an angry look.
"You'll regret that!"
"Oooh, I angered a gnome I'm so scared."
"GNOMES ASEMBLE!"
Hundreds of gnomes started to gather around Jeff and they created Gnomzilla. Trixie stared with wide eyes.
"Huh, that's new."
She quickly slamed the door shut, locked it, and ran upstares. when there she tryed barakating the door with chairs.
"Trixie, what the what are you doing?"
"uuuuuum, you have some unwelcomed company Mabel."
The twins stared at her in confusion untill they her a big roar outside. Mabel looked out the window and screamed.
"AAAH! NOT THE GNOMES AGAIN!"
A hand then reached for the window. Trixie got infront of Mabel and formed a light blue bubble sheild before the hand smashed through the window.
"Cool trick Trixie."
The gnomezilla smashed its hand agenst her sheild. Trixie flinched "Ya, a trick that won't last long if they keep doing that." Gnomzilla slammed hard enough to break Trixies shield and send her flying back into Mabel and both landing on their backs. Dipper tryed toget out of bed to check on them but Gnomezilla grabbed him.
""DIPPER!""
It pulled him outside and pulled him up to Jeffs level.
"Hello Di- Yesh, what's wrong with you?"
"None of your buissnes. A-a-achoo!"
"Aw, is wittwe Dipper not feewing weww."
"HEY SQUIRT! DROP HIM NOW!"
Jeff looked over to where he heard the voice. Trixie was flying toward them. Gnomezilla dodged before she could make contact and rammed into a tree. Dipper covered his mouth.
"Hey, unless you want me to lose my lunch all over you guys then don't move so fast!"
Gnomezilla turned to the house.
"Mabel, if you care about your dear brother then marry us and we'll leave him alone."
Mabel started to panick. When Trixie finaly got to her feet she tryed to fly but when face first into the dirt.
"Bluh, what the?"
She looked at her wings to see that they had a huge scratch.
"Oh this just isn't my day."
She got up and tryed to find a way to stop the gnomes.
"Let's see, if Jeff's the leader then I should aim for him. Agh but I can't reach him."
Something caught the corner of her eye and when she looked she saw Mabels grapling hook.
"BINGO!"
Trixie grabbed it and aimed it for the highest tree. Getting a good grip she pushed the return button and was yanked off her feet.
"So Mabel, what will it be? Marry us or say bye bye to your brother?"
"NETHER!"
Jeff truned around and took a foot to the face knoking him off Gnomezilla. Trixie maneged to grab Dippers hand and pull him out of the gnomes grip.
"Trixie this is really making me feel a little sick."
"Puke on me and you're doomed!"
When they both landed Jeff got the world around him to stop spinning and he looked mad.
"You'll pay for that missy. Oh look, you hurt your wings. I guess you're defensless."
Dipper looked at Trixie.
"You know now's a good time to use a little magic."
"Um, hehe ya, funny story. I can't use my magic."
"Wait what?!"
"When my wings get injured all my magic trys to fix them. It take a few hours depending how bad the injery. But don't worry, I have a plan."
Trixie aimed the grapling hook at Jeff, who was trying to make a get away, and fired. the grapling hook rapped around his legs and Trixie hit the return button.
"What the-WHA!"
When he was close enough Trixie picked him up.
"Mess with us again and you're multibear feed."
She threw Jeff into the air and sent him flying into the woods.
"VENGENS WILL BE MIIIIIIIIIINE!"
Not long after that the gnomes ran off since the didn't have anyone to tell them what to do. Trixie turned to Dipper who was looking a little green.
"do you need a bucket?"
Dipper nodded and ran into the house. When Trixie got there Dipper finished getting sick and was brushing his teeth. Mabel was standing beside him.
"So what are we going to do about the window?"
"Give me a few hours and I can fix it for free."
When Dipper was done he went back to bed. Mabel and Trixie started to collect the broken glass. When Trixies wings were healed she was able to use her magic to fix the window.
"Done."
Trixie went downstairs and flopped onto the couch. It was already dark out and Stan should be back soon so Trixie Desided to stay untill he did.
"I'm back."
Trixie looked over at the door and saw Stan walking in.
"Where are the kids?"
"Asleep, Dippers getting better so he should be able to be good enough tomarrow to get out of bed."
"Good. Well you can get out of here now."
"*Yawn Bye stan."
Trixie stood up drowsly and walked towards the door.
"*sigh* Never mind, you're to tired to go into the woods tonight. I'll get a blanket and pillow for you."
"Thanks Mr. Pines."
