What cuts the deepest
"I'm pregnant" Mabel repeated, staring down at the test she dropped onto her bed.
"You okay?" Dipper asked, shifting around uncomfortably on Mabel's bed, Mabel placed her head on Dipper's shoulder and nodded.
"Want a cuddle?" He questioned, Mabel nodded again. Dipper wrapped his arms around her and just allowed Mabel to cling on to him.
"Oh Dip, what are we going to do?" Mabel sniffled. Dipper remind silent as he allowed his mind time to try and gather his thoughts.
Dipper was sat in a park, watching Mabel pushing a two year old girl on the swings
"Higher mommy higher" the little girl giggled at Mabel who was smiling back gently while pushing the swing. Dipper wiped a tear from his eye as Mabel and the little girl came over and sat down next to him, Mabel on his right and the little girl in between his legs, the little girl looked up at him and told him
"Daddy I love you"
Mabel and Dipper were standing and applauding in a darkened theatre watching a small brunette boy of around eight bowing politely at the adulation he was recieving. The boy spotted them in the crowd and discretly waved to them. The boy left the stage and Mabel and Dipper made their way over to the side where he was stood. Mabel threw her arms around him and whispered
"Oh Stanley, you were amazing, we're so proud of you"
Dipper and Mabel were stood on the porch of the Mystery Shack watching on as two couples, a boy and a girl and two girls... All dressed in formal evening wear climbed into the back of a limosuine, Mabel placed her hands over her mouth and nose and wiped the tears that were falling down her cheeks away
"Oh Dipper, our kids are all grown up" she smiled through the tears, waving the four teens off
"Yeah, they have" Dipper replied proudly.
"Our best" Dipper replied.
The next day
Dipper and Mabel were walking outside to their favourite spot to eat lunch together, thankful that they'd not seen Pacifica or any of her friends for the entire morning. They had just sat down and pulled out a sandwich each when they saw two figures walking towards them from across the playing field
"Oh great! So we can't even eat lunch in peace now?" Dipper complained. The two figures came to a stop before the seated twins
"Hey Mabel" Candy greeted.
"Candy! Grenda! HEY!" Mabel beamed at her friends
"Look, we can't stay for long... Anybody seen talking to you or even looking at you two these days is a sure fire way of getting beaten up by Pacifica's friends" Candy explained in hushed tones.
"We've just come to warn you that Pacifica is planning something for you both, we don't know what. She caught us listening in and threatened us. We're sorry" She added before her and Grenda quickly made their exit and left the twins sitting there stunned into silence.
"She did promise us that yesterday things were only beggining." Dipper reminded Mabel of Pacifica's chilling words
"Hopefully we can avoid her for the rest of the day" Mabel muttered
"Hopefully" Dipper repeated, a little less optimism in his voice
"We've done it so far today" Mabel pointed out
"hmm true"
Mabel and Dipper approached their lockers, ready to stow their books away for the day. Both looking relieved at the fact that they had managed to avoid Pacifica and her friends for the entire day, or so they thought until they heard her sneering voice behind them
"Well, hello there perverts" Dipper rolled his eyes before he and Mabel turned to face her
"What do you want Pacifica?" Dipper sighed
"Oh nothing much, just wanted to come over and give you our gift for you"
"What gift?" Mabel asked
"This gift" Pacifica answered, standing aside to show her friend holding a mutilated baby doll, the doll had one eye carved out, and some of its fingers on one hand cut off and glued to the other hand
"It's like looking into the future isn't it?" she smiled, feigning sweetness.
"Fuck off Pacifica" Dipper snapped at her. He regretted his words instantly as one of her friends quickly stepped forward and punched him in his stomach
"Watch your mouth kid" He hissed at Dipper. Mabel immediately placed her hand on Dipper's back to check on him and make sure he was okay. She shot Pacifica a dirty look before taking Dipper by the arm and leading him away from her and her friends.
"That's right, take that loser out of here"
"What... Did... You... Just... Call... Him?" Mabel asked, turning back to face Pacifica
"A loser, which is exactly what he is... A pathetic nerd and a perverted loser" Pacifica repeated, slowly and condesendingly
"THAT'S IT" Mabel yelled out, rushing over and shoving Pacifica hard, balling her fists up ready to hit her when she was stopped by a horrible case of de ja vu
"MISS PINES. MY OFFICE. NOW!" Principle Steen called out. Mabel marched through the group of Pacifica's friends blocking her path to the office where she was being summoned too.
"Miss Pines... This is the second time in two days you've been caught getting physical with a student... The same student I might add... I'm sorry to have to say this but I have no choice... But to suspend you for a month" Principle Steen told her. Mabel dropped her head and stared down at the floor
"I understand Principle Steen" Mabel sighed, turning around and leaving the office. She found Dipper, his hand still resting on his stomach. waiting for her outside the office with Pacifica and her friends nowhere in sight.
"You okay?" She asked him, concerned that he might still be hurt from earlier
"I'm fine" He grunted "What happened in there?" He asked her
"I've been suspended for a month" Mabel confessed.
