Dipper Pines' short brown hair sat under his friend's hat, and his brown eyes locked on the clock at home in California. He was waiting for his sister to get home so they can pack their bags to go back to Gravity Falls for the summer. It had been two years since he had been to gravity falls last. His Grunkles were going to be there for the summer, and he didn't want to miss an opportunity to see them. His hand gripped the pendent of a golden triangle that hung from his neck. He sighed lightly remembering the last time he had been with Bill Cipher. It was strange that Bill had tried to destroy everything, kill everybody, and yet dipper still felt an amount of guilt weighing on his chest. It was as if Bill had done something to make Dipper feel this way before they had killed him….. Which he had…..
His thought swirled around his mind until he felt tears swell his eyes. His tears threatened to roll down his peach cheeks. Mabel Pines walked in about an hour later to see her brother curled up in a ball crying. "Dipper?" Mabel sat down next to her twin, and pat his back gently. "What's going on bro-bro?" Mabel questioned as she looked next to him to see his many journals messily piled up next to his bed. After a while Dipper still hadn't of moved was still crying, and was unresponsive to his sister she moved over grabbing one of the blue books. She fingered the silver pinetree detail her brother glued on it before opening it to a random page. As she looked it over she found pictures of Bill cipher. Two years ago Bill, and dipper had started something of a relationship until Grunkle Ford found out about it all.
Mabel laid the book down on the bed next to her brother. "Bro, are you okay?" she brushed her hand against her brothers' hair to comfort him. Dipper took a shaky breath, and nodded. "are you sure?" Mabel could hear the concern running of her own voice flooding the room. "y-yeah…. I'm okay Mabel…" he picked up the book.
Dipper and Mabel packed their things, and got ready to set off. They had an hour till the bus came so Dipper ran back in the check if they had forgotten anything. Out of the corner of his eye he saw Bill cipher in his human form. "BILL!" Dipper shouted then reached his hand up to hug the one he loved, but the second he moved closer Bill faded out of existence. It was just Dipper's imagination….. Dipper whipped his tears away, and grabbed his journal. He walked outside to Mabel shaking his head to rid of his thoughts. "Let's go to gravity falls…." Dipper spoke mournfully, just saying the name of the town made Dipper want to cry. "OFF TO GRAVITY FALLS!" Mabel squealed joyfully bouncing as she slammed the door of the car filled with suitcases. "Alright! So mom said she'll drive us to the bus stop, and we will get on the bus! It's the best plan!" Mabel smiled as she ran in a circle around Dipper. "Sounds great…" Dipper tugged on the ends of his hoodie sleeves. His emotions triggering something in his brain to make the scars on his arms hurt again.
