Dipper woke up to the sound of rain. He opened his eyes slightly and looked around the room, noticing it was still dark with a slight bit of a grey coming in through the window. He rolled over hoping that Mabel would still be next to him, he was feeling a little chilly and wanted to cuddle but he rolled over to find an empty side of the bed. He switched his pillow with hers so he could fall asleep to the smell of her hair. I little creepy most would think but Dipper was just lost in his feelings. He fell back asleep.
About an hour or so later, he felt something cold against his leg, he turned to look lifting his body up ever so slightly and saw that Mabel was back next to him. He kind of just stared for a second as he was still half asleep. She opened her eyes and looked up to him. They were the only brightness in the room, even though they were just brown, there was a sort of sparkle, a twinkle if you will. She spoke.
"Hey there sleepy head, how did you sleep with my pillow," She asked as she glanced down to the purple pillow that was under his head.
"s..sorry about that" He replied as he blushed a bit as he thought up a quick response.
"I was having troubles falling asleep after you left"
"Are you saying that you sleep better next to me?" Mabel asked. Dipper pulled his arm off the bed and fell back on to his pillow.
" No your pillow is just a little comfier than mine" he replied as he rolled over to hide his now beet red cheeks. He then turned back over quickly and looked at Mabel.
"Why am I the one being interrogated here, you were the one who's been gone for hours early in the morning," He said with a stern tone of voice. Mabel sat back a bit, she hasn't heard much of Dippers stern tone but it weirdly turned her on a bit. She blushed a bit. They both then rolled over and went back to sleep for a little bit, even though the afternoon was slowly approaching the twins did not want to do much.
A couple of hours later, Mabel awoke to the sound of knocking. It was Stan at the door wondering why they were still sleeping, and his tone of voice implied that he wanted them to do some work around the shack. Mabel pulled herself out of bed and sat for a second. She turned over and looked at dipper still fast asleep and looking so peaceful. She then had to stand up as she was starting to feel the urge to kiss him on the cheek. The room had an overcast glow to it making the nice color of wood walls turn into a depressing kind of look. There was a slight chill in the air and in front of Mabel was a sweater that belonged to dipper. It was a nice cozy grey hoody that she slid over her head, taking in the smell of dippers cologne. She then went into the bathroom where she would start to get ready for some work.
She swung the door open and turned on the light, still groggy from her midday nap she wondered in without looking around the bathroom much. Just then she stubbed her toe and was forced a few steps forward. Holding her foot in her hand due to the slight bit of agony, she looked down and saw dippers backpack. Now somewhat unhappy with a toe now throbbing, she picked the bag up to throw it in the room. As she picked it up she noticed a small slip of paper fall from the small front compartment of his bag. She picked it up in curiosity to examine it. The small piece of paper had a bit of fade to it but she could tell it was a newspaper clipping. On the back, she read something about a dental place and was kind of confused as to why he would hold on to such a thing. As odd as is was she went to put it back in his bag, but as she went to do this she noticed writing on the other side. Her face dropped as she read a familiar name, Doctor Novak. Just then her stomach twisted and her she went a bit light-headed, she had to sit down on the edge of the bathtub as a lot of things she questioned were now answered. That's why doctor Novak new who I was, and knew who my brother was. Could it be? Could he have gone in to see Novak for the same reasons she had?
She then came back from her panic and realized it couldn't be true, it couldn't be the same reasons. She shoved the clipping back into his bag and brought it to their room. Mabel stood and stared at dipper for a minute, still in his peaceful state. She just stood and looked as questions and anxiety came back and flooded her brain. She had to find out some information.
