Wendy's POV
I was pacing back and forth in front of the Mystery Shack, waiting for Dipper and Mabel's bus to come.
The last nine months had been the worst. Everyone went on with their lives as if Dipper and Mabel had never existed in the first place, as if I was the only on that remembered them.
When the bus finally pulled up I was nearly jumping up and down. They climbed off and I tried to hold back my tears.
Dipper was about three inches taller than last summer, but still wore the same blue and white baseball cap.
His eyes immediately landed on me and I ran to hug him.
"Wendy, I need to tell you something."
I pulled away and nodded. "Yeah?"
He took a deep breath. "Wendy, ever since the beginning of last summer I've had a huge crush on you. For the longest time I was scared to tell you, but by the time I had worked up the guts it was nearly the end if summer. So I told myself that was the first thing I would do when I got here. So, there."
Dipper's POV
My hands were shaking madly at my sides, and I stuffed them in my back pockets in an attempt to calm myself down. It was just Wendy, it was just Wendy.
I saw the expression in her face change from shock to a smile.
"I was wondering when you were gonna tell me," she said.
My eyes grew wide. "What?"
She crossed her arms over her chest. "I know that you like me. I knew for all of last summer. It's pretty obvious."
I could feel me cheeks growing hot. "You did?"
She nodded. "Yeah, I did. But you don't have to worry, Dip. I like you too."
I raised my eyebrows and smiled. "You do?"
"Yeah, I thought it was obvious, but I guess not. Unlike you, who thought the exact opposite."
I laughed. "Shut up!"
She raised her hands in defeat. "Okay, okay, fine." She then started towards the shack.
"You coming?" She asked, not turning around. "I haven't seen you in a year, we've got a whole lot of catching up to do."
