"Bill?!"

Chapter 6- The Elephant in the Room

Normal POV

Mabel was dumbstruck to find that she and her brother's mortal enemy, who nearly killed them 6 years ago, is the same guy she is holding in her arms, bleeding to death, in danger of getting an infection.

"What happened to you? Why do you look like a zombie?" Bill groaned at her question, having no energy to fight. "Ok ok, we have to tend to your wounds. Can you stand?" She asked, receiving a slight shake of his head, gesturing 'no'.

Mabel sighed, "Ok, I'll help you, but please promise you wouldn't hurt me or my family anymore, no more terrorizing us," All he managed to give her was a whimper. "I'm taking that as a yes." She kneeled on one leg and then one that was up became her source of support to help Bill stand. The collision of her leg and his wounded back brought out a hiss of pain from his lips. "I'm sorry."

She placed one of his injured hands around her shoulder and placed her other hand on the opposite side of his body. Slowly, she lifted both of them from the ground. "Ok, lets try walking, step your left foot forward." He managed to control his wobbly feet forward, "Good, now the right. Afterwards, the left again." The cycle continued.

The rain made it harder to walk because of the muddy ground formed by the weather. Finally, they reached the front door and she used the hand not holding the human-looking demon to turn the knob, afterwards kicking the door open to let them both in easily, causing the hinges to loosen up with the great impact. 'Ughh, more things to worry about.. but got to focus with the task at hand.'

"We're gonna have to get rid of all that mud so I can take a look at the extent of the injuries," She led them to the bathroom and sat him up on the tub. She needed to move comfortably, so she took off her sweater, leaving her with the blue shirt she wore earlier. She turned the shower handle to make sure that the temperature of the water was warm and tested it with the shower head. She adjusted it further until she was sure she got the correct temperature and increased the pressure so it's enough to get the mud out of him "Let's start with your hair."

He was already bending forward, which made it easier to start without anymore mud going to his back. She scrubbed his head a bit until she found there was no trace of brown. "Ok, I'll be going to your back, this might hurt a bit, then I'll go to the arms. Ready?" He managed to nod. She brought the shower head above his back and began with the top.

The mud was sliding down with the water, causing a contact with the wound, erupted a scream from Bill "Ahhh!"

"It's ok, It'll be fine, it'll all be ok soon," She said rubbing soothing circles on his shoulder. She tried to clean all the mud off faster so she can tend to his wounds. Once she found that his back was mud free, she gasped at what she found etched on it. It's the Cipher Wheel that they used to defeat Bill all those years ago.

The wound was deep but it didn't reach the 3rd layer of skin so first aid will be fine. Once again reminding herself to move quickly, she moved the shower head to his arms then the lower part of his body. Soon, all the mud has found its way to the drain.

She quickly shut off the shower and went to the cabinet in the bathroom, grabbed two towels and hurried back to Bill. She placed it over his back and helped him stand up and move to the living room to tend to his injuries. She turned the knob which turns the sofa into a bed and helped him lie down face front.

She hurriedly took the first aid kit from her bedroom and soon thought how she should start tending to his wounds. As she reached him, she placed and opened the first aid kit on the bed, took out the towel covering his back, then grabbed a small bowl to fill with a bit of water. She added some alcohol and soaked a clean face towel in it.

She squeezed the excess liquid out then turned to face him, finding that he was staring at her, "Alright, this will hurt, but the pain will subside afterwards," receiving a nod again, while handing him a stress ball, "squeeze this later, it might help with the pain,". He held it.

She took a deep breath and began to dab the cloth on his back, causing him to shriek, but he didn't move his body, which helped Mabel finish the task easily and within three minutes, she finished dabbing on the wounds, including those on his hands.

She placed the cloth back in the bowl and set it aside. She grabbed some cotton from the kit and added some of the Povidone-iodine. "This'll help the wound heal faster," and she began to dab on the wounds again. She finished not long after and grabbed the bandage. Luckily she had enough to fill his back. As she finished wrapping up his wounds, she sighed a breath of relief.

She took some pain-relievers and gave it to him, "This will lessen the pain," giving him a reassuring smile. He took it and drank it, soon falling into deep slumber. Mabel grabbed a blanket from her room and hurriedly, but gently, set it on Bill and placed on of the pillows under his head.

She sat back at the windowsill area, which wasn't very far from the sofa-bed. In fact it was right in front of her, a few inches away. She couldn't help but feel guilty helping the demon, but she knew she would regret it if he died because she wouldn't help him because of their past.

'Should I tell Dipper about this? Or Grunkle Ford? Or maybe Grunkle Stan? What would they think? Will they kill me for helping him? Would they understand? Ughh why is it so hard to decide?' She tapped her fingers along the window pane. 'Maybe I should just keep this a secret for now. If I'm sure that they'll understand, then I'll tell them.' She sighed, realizing she's been doing that quite a lot lately, ran a finger through her long brown her and leaned on the windowsill.

She stared at her childhood enemy. He's human form was sleeping peacefully. His skin tone was pale, with blonde hair that was sticking out, 'probably shoulder length'. His lips were tinted with dark pink, and his nose stuck out a bit, quite perfectly even. She found beads of sweat forming on his forehead so she took off the blanket and set it aside. She gasped a bit as she noticed how toned his body is, even though he seemed thin and lanky at first. Looking back at the earlier events, she remembered her hands brushing through some muscle in his stomach, causing her cheeks to redden at the thought 'Get ahold of yourself Mabes, he's Bill Cipher for crying out loud! You can't fall for his tricks and his- gorgeous body. How much do you know about him right now? Not much... He might start playing tricks on you like he did with Dipper after getting what he needs.'

She went to her room to get a thinner blanket. After finding what she needed, she went back to him and placed the blanket over his body once more. She made her way to the windowsill and stared out, the rain was beginning to stop. 'What mess did I just get myself into..."


She woke up not long after the sun rose and stretched out her muscles. She remembered the person-demon who was lying on the sofa-bed. She kneeled down next to him and saw that he was still sleeping peacefully. She noticed how defined his cheekbones are. He had no facial hair and his face looked as smooth as rose petals. She stared at him until he began to shift from his position. She abruptly stood up and moved away. She thought about what she could do to keep her mind off him.

She decided to head to the kitchen and make some breakfast. She prepared some porridge and hot coco. She didn't know what he'd want to eat so she prepared 2 of each. As she finished making breakfast, she heard a howl of pain coming from the sofa.
