HAHA! This shall be a Dipcifica chapter!
11 months, 15 days, and 5 minutes after Bill left
"Dipper!" Mabel shouted as she burst through the door to the gift shop. "What are you getting me for my birthday?" She said jumping on the counter.
"Our birthday." Dipper corrected. "And I'm not telling you."
"Dipper! Now I'm going to go crazy trying to figure out what it is!" Mabel tried.
"I know." Dipper said reading his journal.
"Dipper!" Mabel whined.
"It's a surprise Mabel. Just live with it." Dipper said.
"Well I got you a date with Wendy." Mabel said wiggling her eyebrows.
Dipper fell out of his chair. "Y-you did?"
"No!" Mabel said in between laughs.
"Mabel that's not funny." Dipper said. But eventually he started to laugh along.
"Hey dorks. What's so funny?" Wendy said walking into the Shack.
Dipper stopped laughing. "N-n-nothing! What we weren't laughing! Why are you asking? ZEBRAS!" Dipper stuttered out.
"Um...ok then." Wendy said walking behind the cash register.
"Hehe yeah..." Dipper mumbled as he walked over to Mabel.
"Dude she's like, 23." Mabel whispered.
Dipper just sighed. "Sorry Mabel what did you say?"
Mabel rolled her eyes. "Come on Dip. Let's go upstairs."
"Ok." Dipper said, following Mabel upstairs.
"So, our birthday is in a week! What are we gonna do?" Mabel asked.
"A party?" Dipper said.
"No duh! But what kind of party?" Mabel asked.
"Wait, are we inviting our friends from California?" Dipper asked.
"I actually wanted this to be a Gravity Falls only party." Mabel said.
"Agreed." Dipper said.
"So lemme write a list." Mabel said as she grabbed a notebook. "Stan, Wendy, Soos, Waddles, and Pacifica."
"Pacifica." Dipper sighed. The twins had recently become friends with Pacifica when they found out she was only being mean because of her parents. They helped her through the rough time and eventually became close friends.
"OH MY SMILE DIP!" Mabel shouted. "Do you like Pacifica?" Mabel asked.
"W-what?" Dipper said. "No."
"You like Pacifica!" Mabel cheered. "OMG! I HAVE TO TELL HER-MMMMPPPHHH!" Mabel was cut off by Dipper slapping his hand over her mouth.
"You can't tell her!" Dipper whispered. "Hey did you just lick me?" Dipper asked pulling his hand away from her mouth.
"I won't tell anyone." Mabel said. "Promise."
"Ok." Dipper said. "Now back to planning our party!"
"Ok! So I was thinking we could..." Mabel went on about their birthday.
Dipper wasn't focused on what she was saying. He was focused on her eyes. They were as bright as they used to be. Out of nowhere, he hugged Mabel.
"Woah Dip! What's this for?" Mabel asked not bothering to shove him off. "Oh and Stan said he'll be planning our party."
"No reason!" He said happily. "Now can you start over? I wasn't listening." Dipper said.
Mabel wacked him with a pillow. "Sure dork."
"So the theme should be glitter!" Mabel cheered.
"Mabel the theme will NOT be glitter...EVER!" Dipper said.
"Fine, fine! How about..." Mabel paused as she thought about it.
"How about we have no theme and just invite some friends over." Dipper said.
"That's a perfect theme!" Mabel cheered. "The casual party theme!"
"Does every party have to have a theme with you?" Dipper asked.
"Of course! If I had my own birthday, it would be glitter and chocolate every year!" Mabel said.
"And that's why we're twins..." Dipper muttered.
"So, how are we gonna find out what Stan is getting us so he can get us something else?" Mabel asked.
"And that's how Mabel saved us." Dipper said.
"Her grappling hook?" Pacifica questioned. "Wow that's surprising. That thing never works."
"I know right!" Dipper said a little to quickly. "So, I was wondering if um..." Dipper trailed off. He was planning on asking her out.
"If?" Pacifica asked.
"If you...wanted to come to our birthday party." Dipper covered up. "It's gonna be big since Grunkle Stan is throwing it. So like, everyone in Gravity Falls will be there."
"Oh, sure." Pacifica said, disappointed. She was so sure he was going to ask her out.
"It's at 4 on Saturday." Dipper said.
Suddenly, Pacifica got an idea. "I'll be there!" She cheered. "Listen I gotta go home. See you at the party!"
"Bye Pacifica!" Dipper called.
Pacifica ran all the way home. She didn't even bother to call a limo. She burst into her room and searched around for a piece of paper. "Aha!" She had found a paper sticking out of one of her books. Pacifica grabbed a pen and started scribbling down some words. When she was done, she went over her plan.

5. Dance with Dipper
6. Ask him out
It was perfect!
Mabel was feeding Waddles an apple from the apple tree outside. "How about another one?" She said as she started to climb up the tree. Just as she was about to get another apple, she fell. "Ow..." She groaned. "Waddles, why didn't you catch me?"
Then a memory came back to her.
Bill watched as Mabel tried to pick an apple from a tree.
She had climbed up the tree an was now reaching for a little apple.
"Shooting Star you're gonna fall." He said.
"No...I'm not." Mabel said still trying to get the apple.
And of course she fell.
But Bill caught her just in time.
"What did I tell you Shooting Star?" Bill said. "You were going to fall." Bill snapped his fingers and the apple floated into Mabel's hands.
"Yes! I did it!" Mabel cheered as she hopped out of Bill's arms.
"I did it, you mean." Bill said dusting himself off.
"That's what I said, right?" Mabel said walking back to the Shack.
Bill laughed. "Sure."
An apple fell off the tree hitting her head, bringing Mabel out of her thoughts.
"Oh Waddles." Mabel said, pulling the pig closer. "Do you think he'll come back?"
The pig gave a simple oink.
"I hope that was a yes." Mabel sighed.
Poor Mabel! :( Well, a birthday will cheer you up, right?
WRONG!
MWAHAHAHA!
