"BUT I CAN'T STOP STARING IN THOSE EVIL EYE-" Tranquil sleep was interrupted by the blaring alarm on Mabel's phone. An audible groan was heard from Dipper's side of the room. "You know, I could just stay in the other room if my music bothers you so much." Mabel faked a pout and chucked a pillow at her twin.
The morning went on slowly. Dipper debated asking Mabel about the memory he saw, but wasn't sure how to bring it up without startling her. In the off chance that his sister wasn't involved with Bill, Dipper would be upsetting her for no reason. On the other hand, Mabel would be in some serious danger if that impossible freak were to have his way.
"You alright there Dip?" Mabel asked with a lopsided smile. Dipper was in one of those focus trances again. 'Hopefully nothing went bad with Bill last night…' She thought, while shaking her head. She wasn't going to kid herself and assume the two sat down to a lovely garden party while settling their differences. 'I'll have to ask Bill about it later.' Mabel wandered down stairs and got ready for opening. Bus after bus of tourists arrived, though they didn't stay for too long. She tended to a few customers and made sure they left with a smile. Dipper had also set off to work, replacing the aged signs he had hung outside.
The lunch and dinner hours were really slow, thanks to there being so many families with small children. However, it was now an hour till closing and the crowds had mostly dissipated back into their swanky hotels. Dipper had been tasked with getting the ingredients for dinner tonight and Soos had to be driven to the hospital, thanks to an electrical incident. So, it was up to Mabel to finish up the next hour on her own. Currently, there was a family of four looking at matching shirts and much to the cashier's amusement, the children were arguing over which designs to get.
The spectacle held her gaze for a moment longer, before a young man clearing his throat shook her free. "Oh! Hey there!" Mabel tried to collect herself, while taking in the man's appearance. He had well groomed, deep brown locks and soft golden eyes. "Hey there yourself~!" Something seemed familiar, but the woman couldn't put her finger on it. He was quite dapper to be certain. His honey yellow vest and light yellow dress shirt where both well fitted. The points of contrast being his black slacks and dress shoes. "Where are you going all dressed up like that?" Mabel asked in a playfully flirty tone. "To meet the girl of my dreams!" He responded after quickly looking her over. "I-Uh what?" She stammered, backing up a little bit. "I've had my eye on you for a long time, Ms. Pines."
With this, Mabel's face was bright red. "I'm sorry, but I already have someone-" "In mind?" The brunette man finished her sentence, tapping his right temple with a wink and a smirk. A moment passed and the woman's brilliant brown eyes grew wide with excitement. "B-Bill?!" The man nodded. "Oh my gosh! What happened to-you made a deal to get that huh?" Mabel's elated expression shifted into a weary one. "Wow Star! You catch on fast!" Bill laughed. "But before you ask, I already clarified the situation with my host here. He's completely okay with me borrowing his body… indefinitely."
After a bit of catching up, Mabel heard the familiar screeching from the tires of Dipper's car. "Looks like it's time to start closing up shop!" She cheered and started reorganizing the mess left behind by today's gift shop visitors. "Mind if I lend a hand?" Bill asked after already beginning to rearrange the shirts in their proper order. Dipper was heard walking in through the front door. 'Perfect~!' Bill thought, getting ever closer to the unsuspecting girl. "Would you mind if I came back by tomorrow?" The possessed man cooed in Mabel's ear. "Are you kidding?! I'd love that!" She spun around to face him and was caught up in a big bear hug. Just then, Dipper walked into the room. His sister was in some stranger's arms and she was giving him the warmest smile he had seen in months.
The embrace was cut short when the younger twin cleared his throat. "Oh! I'm terribly sorry, sir!" Bill was always at his best when his pawns were in place. "You see, Ms. Pines and I were just testing to see if a man of my caliber could do heavy lifting!" "HEY!" Mabel laughed and punching the man in his left arm. "And who exactly are YOU?" Dipper seemed less than amused by the situation. "Wilson! Robert Wilson to be precise." The demonic gentleman turned to the young woman. "I'll take my leave, but remember, I'll be watching~!" He pulled out his cellphone, waving with it as he showed himself out.
