Always By Your Side
A/N: Hey everyone! I have decided to write a series of Tyrone/Mabel one-shots. There are hardly any fics here with this particular pairing so I'm starting a series featuring these two. This pairing isn't a couple and just as in my Christmas story, are a friendship pairing. However, these compliations will also include DipperxWendy with Tyrone and Mabel mixed in. If nothing else, on with the legal limitations, summary, and then the story!
Disclaimer; I don't own GF, but Alex Hirsch does. Again, I am praising him!
Summary: A series of friendship one-shots featuring Mabel and Tyrone. NOT SUGGESTED OR INTENDED PINE/CLONECEST! Story one: Tyrone looks after a sick Mabel.
Chapter 1: Sick Days
The common cold, one of nature's worst wraths that could ever grab hold onto the human body. Your head is hurting, your nose is stuffy and sore from all the blowing and tissue rubbing, and your stomach is a mess. All you're able to take in is tea, cold medicines, and very little food that you are use to eating without upsetting it further. Let's not forget about the constant dizziness upon sitting up and the heat spells you experience. Who would be so unlucky to end up with the common cold?
"This is the worst!" Mabel Pines, Gravity Falls' most cheerful resident, whines as she blows her nose once more in a half used tissue. "It's summer for the sake of it all! Who catches a cold in the summer?"
Waddles, who is on the floor next to Mabel's bed, looks up at his companion.
"I feel so bad Waddles." Mabel says to her pet. "Be happy you're a pig and not human."
Waddles oinks, replying to Mabel in his own language.
Having used that tissue, Mabel now throws the used wad onto the floor with the other ten to twelve wads. Despite the garbage can being right next to the bed, Mabel's tissues have not made it into the can, but have surrounded Waddles instead. Laying back down, Mabel can feel her head pounding and can swear it will split open at any time due to how bad her headache is. Dipper Pines now enters into the room carrying a cup of tea followed by his clone, Tyrone.
"Oh Dipper, thank goodness." Mabel says in a nasal tone, now sitting up against the headboard of her bed. "It seemed like forever since you went to make my tea."
"I'm sorry it took so long." Dipper apologizes, now handing the mug to his sister. "It took a little time to find the tea bags. Careful, don't burn yourself."
Having the mug of tea in her hands, Mabel now takes a sip of the flavored fluid slowly. Feeling the hot fluid slide down her throat, the girl smiles at feeling a small bit of relief the tea is bringing.
"You made the blueberry tea!" Mabel weakly cheers, now placing the mug in her lap. "My favorite!"
"I knew that would cheer you up a little." Dipper replies, giving the girl a smile. "Mabel, I have to run out with gruncle Stan into town for thirty minutes so Tyrone will be here looking after you until I get back. Will that be ok?"
"That'll be fine." Mabel replies with a nod.
Nodding, Dipper now embraces his sister in a hug. Releasing her, he now pats Tyrone on the shoulder.
"Take good care of Mabel until I get back." Dipper says to him.
"You know I will." Tyrone replies with a nod.
The younger Pines now makes his way out of the room.
"I'm sorry you're sick Mabel." Tyrone speaks up, now pulling up the chair of the nightstand and taking a seat alongside Mabel's bed. "How did this happen?"
Despite the pounding headache she has, Mabel thinks back to two nights ago when she and Dipper went into the forest in search of a vampire bat that was reported on the news and sighted in that area. The night was particularly cool, despite it being summer.
Flashback
Having entered into the forest, the twins are tightly gripping their flashlights and are shining their lights on everything so not to miss the vampire bat that could appear at any time.
"Alright Mabel, keep your eyes peeled." Dipper says to his sister as he moves his flashlight's light to the top of the trees. "I don't want to miss that bat."
Mabel is trying to keep up with him while also trying to keep herself warm. Despite wearing a sweater, her legs were exposed, which didn't help matters.
"Are you sure this couldn't have waited until maybe tomorrow when it is going to be warmer?" Mabel replies, now feeling a shiver run up her spine. "It's freezing out here."
"As soon as we find this bat, we can go back home." Dipper replies, keeping his vision on the forest surroundings. "It shouldn't be too much longer."
Continuing to follow behind Dipper, Mabel now releases a sneeze. After that sneeze, she then feels the air around her become colder.
"Mabel, are you ok?" Dipper inquires, keeping his vision in front of him. "I heard you sneeze."
Just as Mabel opens her mouth to reply, she releases another sneeze, which brings her to a halt. No longer hearing her footsteps behind him, Dipper turns around to spot Mabel leaning against a tree with her head held down. Making his way over to her, Dipper takes her in his arms.
"Mabel, are you feeling ok?" Dipper asks, now noticing that Mabel's face looked flushed.
"I…I need to head back home." Mabel says, now releasing another sneeze. "I don't feel so good."
Leaning on her brother's shoulder, Dipper can tell that his sister is deficiently coming down with something.
"Ok." Dipper agrees. "You are more important than finding this vampire bat. Let's go."
With that, the twins begins heading back to the shack.
End of Flashback
"I was helping Dipper find a vampire bat in the forest two nights ago." Mabel replies, taking another sip of her tea.
"It must have been cold that night for you to get this sick." Tyrone says, now placing the back of his hand to her forehead. "And you're burning up."
"Thanks for reminding me." Mabel scoffs, taking another sip of her tea.
"Well I'm going to be here to help you get better." Tyrone smiles. "How does that sound?"
Mabel nods, now gulping down the rest of her tea.
"Well, how about a nice story?" Tyrone suggests.
"What will the story be about?" Mabel asks as Tyrone takes the mug from her.
"It can be about whatever you want it to be." Tyrone replies. "It can be about fairies, princesses, anything. I know, it's a story about a princess named Mabel."
"I'm the princess!" Mabel cheers.
"Yep, Princess Mabel and her pet Waddles." Tyrone continues. "Princess Mabel lived in a large castle with her pet Waddles. Mabel never wanted for anything and always got what she wanted."
"Where is Dipper?" Mabel interrupts.
"Oh he's there too." Tyrone replies. "Alright, let me start again. Princess Mabel and Prince Dipper lived in a large castle with Mabel's pet Waddles. They never wanted for anything and always got what they wanted. The prince was very protective of his sister and did whatever he could to keep harm from coming to her. Mabel lived an enchanted life, a life most girls would only dream of. "
"What did my dress look like?" Mabel asks.
"Your dress was very beautiful." Tyrone replies. "Pink and purple with a long skirt and sequence all over. And your crown was made of pure diamonds."
"I always wanted a crown made of diamonds!" Mabel smiles, now grabbing her tissue box and snatching a tissue out. She then blows her nose into it.
"Princess Mabel's life never saw a dark day that is until she met a greedy prince named Gideon." Tyrone continues. "Gideon had always loved Mabel, but she never cared for him."
"I don't care for him now." Mabel says.
"But despite what Gideon wanted, the princess knew that her brother would not let him get near her and she was right." Tyrone continues. "Dipper sent the boy packing and gave him a warning that if her ever came near princess Mabel, well that scene wouldn't have pretty. But the princess was happy to have her brother there to protect her."
"But what about the guards?" Mabel asks. "The castle should have guards right?"
"Well yes, but your brother did a better job of looking out for you than they did." Tyrone replies, getting a laugh from Mabel. "And he vowed to always look after you no matter what."
"That sounds like Dipper alright." Mabel smiles, as she lays back down. "What happens next?"
"Well after Dipper got rid of Gideon, everything went back to normal for Princess Mabel." Tyrone continues. "She never had to worry about Gideon anymore and her enchanted life went back to normal. The end."
"That was a good story." Mabel says as she sneezes into her tissue. "Could you make me more tea please?"
"Sure." Tyrone nods. "Blueberry as that's your favorite."
"Thanks Tyrone." Mabel thanks him.
Smiling to the girl, Tyrone now leaves the room to go make Mabel more tea. After five minutes, Tyrone returns to the room with Mabel's tea to find Mabel fast asleep with several tissues gripped in her hands.
Tyrone now places her tea on the night stand that separates her and Dipper's bed and takes a seat back in the chair. Watching as Mabel slept, the clone doesn't hear nor notice Dipper enter the room. He is carrying a bag in his hands.
"How is she?" Dipper asks, now catching Tyrone's attention.
"Oh she's good." Tyrone answers, now turning back to Mabel. "I think she'll be feeling better real soon."
"That's good to hear." Dipper replies. "I'm going to take these things downstairs and after that, I'll be back up to take over."
Turning on his heels, Dipper now leaves the room, leaving his clone to care for his sister.
