He waved with his sister out the bus window at everyone as it drove away. The summer was over. It was time for them to go back home to their hometown of Piedmont, California. It was hard for both twins to have to say goodbye to all their friends, as well
/as their Two great uncles, Stanley and Stanford. Everyone waved cheerfully. With a few 'goodbye Dipper and Mabel!' With the odd 'see you next summer'. Dipper fixed the hat Wendy had given him. It felt so soft between his finger tips. It even smelled
/like her. He sat back down once everyone was out of view.
He was still holding the letter in his hand Wendy had given him before getting onto the bus. He looked over at his sister who leaned against him as she slowly nodded off. Dipper looked back down to the letter within his grasp, he couldn't help himself
/as his curiosity took over and he opened it. Inside was the signatures of everyone. With the simple sentence, 'see you next summer'.
He smiles bright before tearing up a little. He was going to miss Gravity falls. Dipper had so many adventures here, even celebrating his and Mabel's 13th birthday here. It would feel strange to wake up and have everything to be normal again. No gnomes
/getting into the trash, dinosaurs running lose around town. But for sure the one thing he wouldn't miss would be Bill Cipher. That made him ponder about what happened within Stanley's mind. Did Bill really die? Or was he just Sent back to another
/dimension? He would never know, and maybe it was best he didn't. But he knew the chances of him coming back were slim. Besides, he and Mabel had defeated him before, they could do it again. But even if they couldn't, they can always get their loving
/uncles to help, together they were unstoppable.
Suddenly his train of thought stopped and he looked out the window, watching as the Water-tower slowly went by. Dipper placed the paper into his suitcase and pulled out a book of crossword puzzles. "Hmmm...the name of the tip to a shoelace..." He mumbled
/to himself "I think I remember what that was called."
The bus slowly came to a stop. "Hey kids- wake up." The bus driver Hollered, Dipper twitched and awoke quickly, he mumbled and wipes the saliva leaking from his dry mouth. Mabel yawned and sat up groggily, the hair on one side now all ruffled and messy."Come
/on-" the bus driver gestured. The twins slowly got up and grabbed their things before the walking off the bus, and being welcomed back by their parents.
"It'sso good to see you two again!" Their mother beamed and she pulled them into a tight embrace. The twins both hugged back, now smiling.
"How was the trip kiddo?" asked as ruffled the hat on dipper's head, messing with the hair underneath. He smiled and chuckled.
"It was good dad. A little boring though-" The bust drove away down the road. Their mother let go and started to go towards their car, gesturingfor the children to follow. "Come on now- let's get you twohome. I want to hear all about it!"
Hey there! Author speaking! I wanted to say thank you to anyone who has took the time to read the first chapter. I will be working on this slowly and will hopefully finish it unlike my other ones. Please tell me if there is anything I messed up, I would
appreciate the feedback to help make me become a better writer. This story may be a little slow at first. But I promise it will be worth the wait! Also I'm sorry if perspective is all over the place- I'm not too good at writing and I'll try and fix
it •3• Also, the spacing may look strange depending on what device you are on, sorry for the inconvenience.
