Dipper's POV

I'd heard, I heard it all!

I'd been listening to the girls through the keyhole on the other side of the door.

If I couldn't trust Mabel, my own twin to keep her mouth shut, who could I trust?

With Candy and Grenda now knowing about my not-so-secret crush, Wendy could find out any day now!

Silent tears trickled down my cheeks which I thought useless to wipe away as they were just gonna keep coming.

My sister had humiliated me enough today.

I needed a place to calm down.

The first place I thought of was Wendy's secret rooftop hiding place which I knew would be all windy and a bit of a risk due to the lightning, but I was so torn up that I didn't care where I went, as long as I was away from other people.

I hated it to be true, but I was sure the storm meant that Bill Cipher was going to return, so I prepared myself to pass by any of Bill's unfair bribes.

I shifted past Grunkle Stan and up the ladder.

The moment I got up onto the roof, a crack of lightning struck about a meter away from me!

I leapt backwards, clutching '3' (of course).

The tree rocked and swayed violently.

I figured that being away from Mabel, Candy and Grenda wasn't worth my life.

I let out a shriek when I saw a familiar yellow triangle with one eye and a black bowtie pop into sight like thin-air.

Bill Cipher, as I predicted.

Wendy's POV

I was lounging around watching television with Stan, but that's when I heard a loud scream.

It was high pitched, but it definitely couldn't have been a girl.

I immediately figured it was Dipper's scream, it sounded like it was coming from the roof-top hideout.

I panicked, but didn't show it, all I said was

"Hey, Stan, did you hear that?" but Stan clearly wasn't referring to the same noise when he said

"Yeah, it sounded like Ducktective's quack… I'm changing this damned channel!" I ignored this and ran up to the roof.

A huge attack of wind gushed past me, I held onto my hat instinctively.

When I came into focus of my surroundings, I noticed poor little Dipper! He was been so violently shook that he was on the verge of falling off the edge!

I yelled out overriding the wind in my cool girl tone

"Hey, Dipper! What the heck are you doing up here, dork!" Dipper launched backwards, startled by my voice. I caught him and yelled over the howling wind

"Dipper! You could get killed!" when Dipper realised who I was, a light blush was visible on his cheeks for some reason.

He stammered

"I-i- er…Wendy?"

I said

"Come inside!" I then noticed a yellow triangle hovering above us, I recognised him as Bill Cipher! The triangle said in a sinister voice

"If it isn't little Dippy and little miss red head! Or should I say Dippy's girlfriend? Bill put a large emphasise on the word 'Dippy'.

Dipper yelled out, an either deeper blush than before

"GO AWAY BILL! Don't call me that and sh-she is NOT my girlfriend I mean how could she be" he said the next part with a touch of sadness

"She's too old for me…"

I said harshly

"Stop that Bill! Stop this!" Bill raised an eyebrow, smirking evilly

"Stop what?" I replied, taking a threating step towards the triangle man

"This wind!" I put my arms protectively around Dipper, causing him to go red as a tomato.

Bill replied

"Oh, this tame little storm? Certainly, but first, gimme that book!" I noticed Dipper was hugging an antique looking book in his arms.

Dipper was very pale, I'm sure I was white as a ghost as well.

I would never admit it to anyone, but I was scared, but mainly for Dipper.

Bill said

"If you don't hand it over, it'll be this way for eternity!"

Before I could say anything, a loud voice came from out of nowhere

"Not if I can help it!" that was unmistakably Mabel's voice.

Dipper and I whipped around to face her like a Mexican wave, Candy and Grenda were with her.

Dipper said happily

"Mabel!" but he raised an eyebrow when he saw that the three girls were armed with sharp knives with jaggered edges and pots and pans on their heads, as if to imitate a helmet.

"Seriously? Never mind, I'm so glad to… see…you" Dipper slowed down the last part of his sentence and turned away crossing his arms crossly.

Then our attention turned back to Bill.

Dipper took a deep breath as he held his book out to Bill, but before Bill could take '3', Mabel and I quickly snatched it off Dipper.

Mabel said worriedly

"Dipper, this is YOUR book, and there are only 3 copies, keep it!"

I agreed and said

"Yeah, Dipper! If this book means that much to you, so be it!" Dipper said, looking up at the triangular man boldly,

"Fine then, I can't let a little wind-" Grenda interupted in her deep voice

"Er… Think this wind's pretty big…" Dipper continued

"Whatever, a big wind stop us! I decline!" I smiled and cheered at Dipper's resilience and bravery but Bill certainly didn't, in fact he said in a mean, harsh voice

"Fine. But I'll get you Dipper Pines! All of you dreaded Pines! You've been warned!" and disappeared with a click of his finger, the wind still swiftly shaking the trees and the lightning striking.

I said, almost in a whisper

"Okay, just get inside everyone." And everyone obeyed.

Sorry for the slow update! I've been really busy settling into the new school term and haven't had much time. Hopefully, updates will be quicker from now. Stay tuned!
