Chapter 3:
Dipper's P.O.V.
I remember walking home, leaving Bill just floating in the sky. My mind was set on Candy's reaction to my question. Will she kiss me again? Will she shrug it off?
I was in Mystery Shack's view, spying Mabel and her optimistic self finding butterflies along with Waddles. I smiled, thinking how peaceful this summer is. I walked up the steps into the Shack. Not passing a glance at Wendy and Robbie, not passing a glance to Soos or Grunkle Stan. Marching up my room was tiring enough when I'm mad. I slammed the door behind me.
When I turned from the door, I spotted Candy sleeping on my bed. I threw back as if she was the scariest thing in the world, which, unfortunatley, she wasn't. As I walked backwards, I slammed my back against the wall, causing Candy to jerk awake. She rubbed the sleepiness from her eyes and looked, grogfully at me.
"D-Dipper?" She said with a tired, croaky voice. I nodded my head and sat on Mabel's bed. She sat up and took a sip from a cup, inches from my hand. Then, she grabbed a sticker-designed brush and began to comb her slightly messed up hair. Alright, Dipper. This is when you have to act in LOVE with her, ok? Three,Two,One...
I sat up and moved to sit near Candy. I twisted my body to look at her, which caused her to stop brushing. I pushed one strand of her hair behind her ear, and looked into her eyes. She looked at me, lovingly as always. But, something changed. Candy seemed to look...different. Maybe a little on the CUTE side of things.
"Candy,"I gulped." There's something I've been meaning to ask you for a while. And, well...uh..." Before I knew it, I began to stutter and sweat peered down my face. I looked down at my hands laying in my lap, but Candy tried to keep our eye contact in tact.
"Yes,Dipper?" She said. I looked her in the eyes, again, but this time I noticed how they shined and glimmered in the low sun set-light.
"Would you like to go out, sometime?" I finally choked out. Candy looked pale, then her color came back.
"With who?" She asked. I mentally palmed my face. I pointed at myself and when it finally sunk in, she jumped up and down. When I looked at the door, I found Mabel. Waddles was there beside her, they both looked at each other, then she widely grinned.
"Love,Love, Love,Love,Love!" She yelled. Wendy walked up the steps and said:
" What's going on? All of the customers left, including the high paying ones!" She said. Then she looked at my hands, then I looked at my hands, and found them holding Candy's. I jumped up, but not enough to loosen her grip.
Wendy's P.O.V.
Alright, there I was, talking to Robbie, when I hear Mabel. She's shrieking out something about love. I didn't think it was a big deal, but after the customers ran out, I had to see what she was doing. So, I ran up the dirty steps and found Dipper, Mabel, Candy, and a pig.
"What' going on? Allof the customers left, including the high paying ones!" I yelled. I looked to Dipper, who was holding hands with Candy. I blushed and ran back downstairs. Maybe Dipstick doesn't think of jealousy when he's around Candy.- Huh? Wait, Mabel's screaming LOVE, Dipper and Candy are sitting on the same bed, and they're holding hand- Dipp's in love!
Candy's P.O.V.
Me and Dipper are finally going out on our first date! How great is that! I didn't ask him, he asked ME! I can't stop smiling. We're holding hands and heading to the Diner. This is going to be so AWESOME!
"Dipper why did you ask me out?'' I curiously asked. He looked at the leaf colored ground, then said.
"Why do you look in the mirror?'' He asked. I shrugged.
"I don't know, why do you think I look in the mirror?"
"Because you're beautiful..." I blushed. I'm beautiful! I blushed the entire way to the Diner. Maybe he really does love me.
Dipper's P.O.V.
When me and Candy were walking to the Diner, I heard a rustle then a snap and turned my head. I saw the top hat of Bill. Of course he was watching me. I grabbed Candy's hand to actually look like I was enjoying her company. Then, we were there. I opened the door and waited for Candy to walk in to close it .We chose the booth near the enterance and waited for the waitress.
After a while, Lazy Susan came and took our orders. Next, after she gave our drinks, Lazy Susan went to fetch our food and we were left alone...together. I took an awkward sip of my cola and looked at Candy, who was caught staring at me. She immedietly looked away and took a sip of her water. Right before I could say anything, Lazy Susan came and dropped our dinner. I smiled at her, to which she replied with a blink/wink. I grabbed a handful of fries and began to eat.
"Nom,Nom,Nom!" I accidentally chewed to loudly, Candy gave me the 'Are you serious?' look. I smiled and grabbed my hamburger. Candy cut her Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich into squares and ate.
When we were finished eating, I payed for the food and we went back to the Shack. It turned out that Candy's parents were to be gone for the rest of the summer and she had to stay with us. Five minutes after walking, I began to grow tired and sat on a bench. Candy sat next to me and laid her head on my shoulder. Her hair stayed perfectly still, which shocked me! I put my arm around her and stood there, looking at the moon. The light evening breeze came in, causing Candy to shiver. I stood up, pulled her up and hugged her the entire way there. It fwlt nice having someone to hug without them throwing souvenirs at you, or worse.
Maybe there is some love in this relationship after all...
