Hello friends, and welcome to the final installment of Part of My Mind! This has been a fun experience for me to write, and I'm very thankful for everyone who faved and followed and reviewed. It meant a lot to me, and makes me happy knowing you enjoyed this story!

Now, without further ado, enjoy this super fluffy conclusion!


Mabel was slowly pulled out of the darkness of sleep, and at first she couldn't figure out why. It seemed like it was getting brighter, but she knew it couldn't have been morning yet. Then she heard it.

"I- I found them! Reid! They're over here! Oh my goodness, they're over here!"

Mabel became more aware of her surroundings when she picked up her mother's frantic, yet relieved voice. She was cold, but not shivering, and could tell she was going to be sore for a while. She could feel Dipper's body leaned against hers, and her own stiff muscles slowly waking up.

Dipper!

Mabel opened her eyes, and saw a flashlight beam sweeping over the two of them. She looked down at her brother quickly, relief flooding over her when she saw he was okay, sleeping softly. She looked back to the light, squinting against the change in brightness on her darkness-adjusted vision.

"M-Mom?" Mabel croaked out, her voice rough from disuse and cold.

"Mabel! Oh Mabel!" The flashlight swung wildly as the person holding it ran towards her. Soon Mrs. Pines was on the forest floor, tears flooding her eyes, as she threw her arms around her children. Mr. Pines raced up behind her, his emotions close to escaping as well.

"Oh my God, Dipper, is- is he-" the worried father started.

"He's okay," Mabel said quickly. "Just asleep."

This time, she thought to herself.

"What happened to you two? Mom said you ran away without telling her!"

"I… I'm sorry, Dad. I just… knew something was wrong with Dipper, and I had to get to him. I'm lucky I did, too, or he might've…" Mabel trailed off, not wanting to finish the thought.

"It doesn't matter right now," Mr. Pines said assuringly. "Right now, we need to get you two home." Mabel nodded, grimacing as she pushed herself up.

Mr. Pines leaned down and gently scooped Dipper up. Upon being moved, the boy groggily looked up and said, "D-Dad? You're here…"

"Shh, it's okay, Dipper. We're going home." The father answered.

"My ankle…"

"We'll get it taken care of."

And all the way to the car, Mabel held her brother's hand, glad to finally be back with her family.

(-0-)

As always, the first thing Mabel became aware of was that part of her mind, reassuring her of her twin's presence, before anything else made its way to her waking consciousness. She could feel the quiet sensation that let her know, he's there, he's okay. It was a welcome feeling, one she'd been worried she'd lose.

With her secret sixth sense taken care of, the next thing Mabel felt was the soft sheets and comforter that told her she was back in her own bed, safe and secure.

Mabel opened her eyes to see the light dimly filtering in through her curtains, the seemingly endless posters on her walls lightly illuminated. She brushed her covers back, creaking open her bedroom door and tiptoeing two doors down to her brother's room. The door was open only a crack, and she pushed it a little wider to peek in.

Dipper was in his bed, the blankets steadily rising and falling. His right foot was propped up on a pillow at the end of the bed, carefully wrapped up in the emergency gauze their parents kept in the closet. But he was okay.

Dipper shifted slightly, turning his head toward the door. "Hey, sis." He whispered.

"How're you doing?" She asked in return.

"Been better. Been worse, too." He answered.

Mabel nodded, before turning to leave him to rest.

"Wait, Mabel?"

"Yeah?"

"Thank you."

"You already said that yesterday."

"But once is never enough."

"Dip, you don't even need to say it. It's what we do." Mabel smiled at him.

"I know. But it still feels right." He was quiet for a moment before speaking again. "Can… can you come lay with me for a while?" He asked quietly.

"Of course, bro."

Mabel made her way over to him, being careful not to jostle his hurt leg, and snuggled into the covers.

"I'm sorry for scaring you." Dipper said after a moment.

"I'm just glad you're safe. That's all that matters to me."

Dipper closed his eyes, finding himself in that special place he shared with his sister, and knowing she was doing the same.

"Me too."

THE END


And it's done! Thank you so much again for reading! I must say that I really do fancy myself more of a one or two shot writer, but this was fun!
