Dipper and Pacifica's Love Story

Chapter 35

Dipper's POV

All the information from the past came rolling in. My mind went under complete construction after Grunkle Ford finished his sentence. Everything came back to me. Bill, Wendy, the author, the journals, Weirdmageddon, everything! It was so much information at once that I collapsed to the ground, but luckily Grunkle Stan caught me.

He placed me on the bed and I just sat there. The two Grunkles watched me sit there and think about everything that's just happened. But even though I remembered everything, there was one factor that still remained, Pacifica…

Grunkle Ford got on one knee and looked me in the eyes. "Alright Dipper, take it all slowly. Don't get overwhelmed or you'll make things even worse for yourself."

I took a long breath and waited for several minutes. With every minute that went by I remembered almost everything that happened from the past. Each minute being different from the other, I couldn't help but wonder what the next minute would have in store for me. It took me a while to come back down to earth, and when I did, my head was still nowhere near Gravity Falls.

After a while of sitting and breathing, I shook my head and jumped to my feet. I said, "Alright, I think I remember everything now…"

Grunkle Ford and Stan just laughed. I couldn't help but laugh too. But that's when Pacifica came back into my head.

"Wait. How do we get everyone's memories back then?!" I said eagerly.

Grunkle Ford responded, "Whoa there. You just got hit with a hammer on the head and you already want to get everyone's memories back? Just slow down Dipper and take all the information you just got slowly. You may be able to remember all the memories you lost, but taking too much of the information in will make your head explode."

Even though I just heard exactly what Grunkle Ford just said, I couldn't just stand around and wait for something to happen. More than half the summer went by in a blink of an eye, and because of my ignorant self, I was too much of an idiot to remember all the stuff that happened! How could we forget all of that?! The Shape-Shifter, the party, Pacifica's kidnap- wait, Pacifica… Pacifica!

I ran past the Grunkles and down the steps as fast as possible. I overheard Grunkle Stan yell, "Kid?! Where the heck are you going?!"

I ignored the comment and got to the golf cart parked right outside the shack. Luckily, the keys were still in it so I turned it on and drove away. Even though I was just told to take this discovery slowly, I needed to tell someone about this! More importantly, a girl that I actually lo-, lo-,lov-, loved, more than anything!

Even though the odds of her being in town were pretty low, I decided to take my chances and see just in case. But of course, with my luck, she wasn't anywhere in sight. As I drove and drove to different parts of the town, more and more memories came back to me. And of course, they all had to do with Pacifica. The bowling match, the date we had, the mall experience we went on, and the jphone experience she forced me to do. All of them came flooding into my mind too fast! As much as I wanted to remember all of these things now, it seems that life was forcing me to take it one at a time.

After about 20 failures of looking for Pacifica, I parked the golf cart and sat on a bench. Even though I didn't find her on the street, I'm pretty sure she's in her mansion right now, and the odds of getting in would probably be little to none! Her parents are evil creatures that take advantage of her daughter since they're rich! Those devils are the reason why Pacifica had to move out- Wait! Didn't her parents actually decide to change after she left? And during Weirdmageddon, didn't they risk their lives to save us? Oh jeez, what am I saying? Pacifica's parents aren't bad at all. Once they realized what they were doing was wrong, they actually became decent parents. But I don't think going up to them and saying, "Hey! In another world, you were actually nice parents and cared about your daughter! Can I have your blessing in marrying her now?" would help my case at all. They're most likely in their usual scary, greedy form that Pacifica tried so hard to run away from. And even when she finally ran away from them, she was kidnapped by an evil Shape-Shifter working for an evil dream demon known as Bill. That girl couldn't get a break no matter how hard she tried. I tried to help her, but all I did was watch helplessly as her life slowly was thrown away by both her parents, and the paranormal crap that happened in this town. However, even though there's no dispute that all that stuff happened, there's no more of that paranormal stuff in this world! So that means if I could get Pacifica to remember and her parents to remember, then Pacifica and I can get back to our original lives again! Even though at the moment it looks like a stretch, I believe that I could do it! But how am I going to find Pacifica if I can't even get into the mansion, and even if I could, what am I going to say that will make her remember me-

But my thoughts were interrupted by a loud giggle noise coming from a small group of girls walking in front of me. I looked up and saw the long blonde hair that I could see a mile away. Pacifica! She was with two other friends that I've seen her hang out with before in the past. As usual, they all had on ridiculously expensive stuff that no human on the face of the planet would buy, but that's being rich for you!

But anyways, she passed me with her friends and didn't even realize that I was there! I remember a long time ago, she would make fun of every commoner that came across her path no matter what, but I guess she's over that phase now.

I got off the bench and caught up to them. Even though my actions were more related to being a stalker, this was my only chance to tell Pacifica something so that she could remember. If all goes well, then she'll fall in love with me again!

I said, "Hey Pacifica! You have a moment?"

Pacifica's friends turned to me with a cold stare. Their eyes looked right through me and went straight into my soul… Okay, maybe not that far, but they did give me a very creepy stare.

Pacifica stopped her giggling and also turned around. She raised an eyebrow and said sharply, "What do you want?!"

I was a little shocked by how harsh her response was, but I kept my composure. "I was wondering if I could ask you something in private."

Pacifica laughed and said, "That's very funny Dipper! But we richer folks only associate with rich people, not commoners like you!" That made Pacifica's friends laugh like hyenas.

My cheeks got a little red but I still went on with the offense, "But Pacifica, you did talk to me that one time about your birthday party a few days ago…"

Pacifica's friends stopped laughing and turned to Pacifica now. One of them said, "Is that true Paz? You really talked to that low-level piece of trash about your totally, hip, birthday party?"

Pacifica started to blush and said, "What?! Me?! O-Of course not! He must be crazy!"

Pacifica's ignorant friends seemed to agree with Pacifica and started to come back to me now. I was running out of ideas when I placed my hand into my pocket and felt something like paper. I pulled it out and saw a golden letter that was already opened.

I smirked and turned to Pacifica, "If that's true Pacifica, then how do you explain this!" I showed them the golden envelope that Pacifica gave me at the diner. Pacifica's friend's faces turned to stone as their eyes came across the golden edges of the letter. Both of them literally gave a glare at Pacifica, who was just trying to hide the blush on her face.

"I'm sorry Paz, but that's just uncool. You give that commoner an invite, but yet, you haven't even given any of us one yet? When are we, your friends, going to get an invite?!" One of the friends said.

Pacifica looked to the ground, "Uh… Well… My father only gave me the allowance for one friend to come, and I couldn't just pick one over the other, so I chose someone that'll show me what it's like to have a party…" Pacifica's face was dark red by the time she finished that.

Pacifica's friends at this point were steaming with anger and just decided to walk away at this point. If they weren't so arrogant and ignorant, they would see that Pacifica did the right thing by not picking one over the other. But at the same, she did give her only invite to a commoner like me, so I guess that goes against all her rich code of honors?

After her friends stormed off, Pacifica turned her anger towards me and said, "What the heck do you want?! Not only did you ruin my day of shopping, you made my friends walked away in anger! Now I can't do anything with them until I buy something they want. And let me tell you something, they always go for the expensive stuff!"

I placed my hand on her shoulder and said, "Take a seat for me please."

That made her even more pissed because she literally tried to right hook me, but somehow, I was able to dodge it despite being terrible at physical things.

"Whoa! Pacifica! Cool off for a moment! Just take a seat!" I yelled.

After a while of steaming, she calmed down and sat down. I took a deep breath and said, "Have you ever really liked someone before?"

She gave me an annoyed look and said, "Please tell me there's more to this stupid question?"

Well, that didn't work; I guess I'll have to go in deeper.

I scratched the back of my head, "Well, have you ever had a very important memory of yours be taken away from time itself? Meaning that you once remembered something great, but because of just time in general, you lost the memory?" What the hell did I just ask?

She gave me a confused look, "Dipper… I swear to God if this is something really stupid I will take the envelope away right now! Seriously! How could someone answer that question since they can't remember a memory that's forgotten?!"

I realized how stupid that question was right after it left my lips, but I couldn't go back on it I guess. Fine, I guess I will have to come very clean with her.

I sighed, "Pacifica, this world we're living in, isn't the world we're supposed to be living in…" Wow, that sounded really stupid out in the open.

Pacifica's face got super pissed that she slugged her left elbow into my right arm. "Dipper! Give me that envelope!

After getting through the pain I quickly said, "Wait! Please, hear me out!"

She crossed her arms and looked at her watch, "You have 30 seconds to tell me this ridiculous statement! And after those 30 seconds are up, you must hand over the invite I gave you!"

I got to my feet and said, "Alright, so the overall statement I have is that the world we're living in now is actually another universe that was created by a person named Alex. Now, you don't remember any of that, but the reason why we're here is because Gravity Falls in the other world was actually the #1 spot for paranormal things on the planet. And after one of the monsters from another dimension tried to take over the world, we all had to sacrifice something in order to save mankind. You, I, and 8 other people are part of a zodiac circle that had the power to defeat the monster. And believe it or not, you and I were actually in love with each other and we had to give up our relationship! So we all gave up something close to us and were transported into a reality where all the paranormal stuff doesn't exist and we all have amnesia of what really happened before!" I said that incredibly fast that I'm pretty sure she didn't get any of it.

Pacifica's face was blank and totally lost. I couldn't tell if she was pissed, or just really freaked out on how I could come up with an explanation that fast. And I also think that I fitted all of that information into 30 seconds, so she can't take anything away from me! Ha!

I started to talk again when Pacifica reacted swiftly and grabbed a small device on her purse. It was a small black thing with a handle on it. But that's when I realized that it wasn't just something for fashion… Pepper spray!

I covered my eyes quickly as she sprayed the liquid on my face. Some of it got into my mouth which hurt like heck, but luckily, none of it got into my eyes. My hands, cheek, and other parts of the face were screaming in pain as the hot sensation of pepper juice absorbed into the skin and caused it to burn. Even though it was not like burning from the sun, it was making my skin feel like it was on fire!

I screamed in pain as Pacifica grabbed her purse and smacked me across the face with it. I fell to the ground and watched as she walked away with a pissed off look on her face. I would go after her, but my face was in some much pain that I needed to just stay still for a little while.

After the pepper spray issue, I decided to just go home and live with the idea that Pacifica is a hard cookie to crack when it comes to things like this. But even after I got back to the shack, I got yelled at by everyone and went into my room. However, that's when I realized that I still had the golden envelope in my hands. After Pacifica sprayed me, I dropped the envelope on the ground and she had all the time in the world to take it if she wanted to. However, she didn't. I think she still cares about me being at her party to make it interesting, but I guess she still thinks I'm crazy. I think actually the last time we saw each other she also hit me in the face or something like that. So I guess certain things never change…

Pacifica's POV

Even after I tried to track down my friends, they were long gone after Dipper and his ridiculous story ended. After I heard those words come out of his mouth, I reacted the same way any normal person would. But even after all the stuff happened, I started to think about what Dipper said. He's not the person who would do something like that out of the blue. He doesn't take drugs or something, so it's not like he's going crazy. But he did seem very confident about it… Maybe I should take it under consideration…No! He said that he and I were love partners in the other world which is impossible! I couldn't possibly be his love partner, and better yet, he couldn't be mine if he even tried! I have no actual feelings towards him! And even if he wants to believe that, it's all BS anyways! I would never love him in a billion years, heck; even if you paid me all the money in the world I still wouldn't date him! He's annoying, a geek, and overall, just a fricken commoner. All commoners are the same. They're all after our money and will do anything do get their greedy hands on it! My father told me that a long time ago and I've seen it personally with my own eyes! The Pines family is only after our money and nothing else! Dipper may seem nice, cute, and adorable, but he's still a greedy commoner- Wait! What the heck did I just say about cute and adorable?! He's not cute at all! He's a geek! No one likes them! Ah! I hate that boy! Yeah, he may have some charms up his sleeve, but that doesn't mean I would be in love with him, or nevertheless, have a crush on him or something. Yeah, he has nice brown hair and a cute little hat that he wears around a lot…

…

Ah!

I got back to the mansion around 7 when my father came up to me as I walked in.

"You enjoy yourself today Pacifica?" He asked.

I responded, "Yeah, I guess."

He and I never really had a long conversation about anything, so this time made no difference than the other times.

He straightened himself, "And I assume that you tracked down that commoner that you gave that invite to yet?"

That hit me like a hammer on a nail. The invite! I forgot about it! But I remember looking at it when Dipper fell to the ground, so why didn't I take it?! I just walked away and pretended like nothing happened! But I have to think fast or dad will catch on.

"Uh, no dad. I looked all over for him today and still nothing…" I said.

He gave me an annoyed looked, "Now remember Pacifica, your party is in a few days, and I swear if that boy comes to that party, I will personally take out the trash myself!" He immediately walked away with anger.

I gulped hard. I have to make Dipper not come to that party to matter what!

Have I ever told you guys on how much I love school AND work at the same time? No? It sucks. Stay Tuned!
