Guest-Thanks for letting me know of my mistake of writing Gretchen instead of Grenda. It has now been fixed.
FYI this chapter will be using an episode from the second season of Gravity Falls. But like with the other episodes I've used in the series, there will be some changes.
This chapter has now gone through some modifications. Special thanks to New Yorktown and elderscrolls master for inspiring me to make these modifications. Hope you all enjoy it what I've done.

Chapter 2: Truth be Told "Flashback"
Dipper's Narrative
…it all started two weeks ago, right after we'd escaped from the miniature golf course, "The Golf War". You, "Mabel", had offered Pacifica a ride home. Which I was against at the time, and so was she. However, due to lightning beginning to strike, Pacifica chose to accept your offer of transportation. During the ride, (while you were singing the driving song with Soos and Grunkle Stan), I may have "accidentally" revealed that it was my idea to get the Lilliputtians to help us defeat her.
In response, Pacifica said to me, "why Dipper? First, you openly call my family frauds. Then you manipulate an entire race to cheat in order to defeat me. I didn't know you had such a dark side in you. I like it." While she said this, she spoke in a rather flirtatious manner, even going so far as to rub my chin back and forth with her index finger.
And for some reason, (that I couldn't explain at the time), I kind of liked it.
Anyways, eventually, we got to the front gate of Pacifica's mansion where you "Mabel" offered her to let bygones be bygones. Even going so far as to offer her a friendship sticker. Though as you know, she slapped the sticker away and said "no way dweeb." Before walking through, (the now opened gate), with it slamming right in front of your face.
You then got back to the car and sat, feeling depressed. I, of course, couldn't, nor was going to just let Pacifica get away with hurting your feelings. So I walked up to the gate and banned on it furiously till she answered. Only to slap a piece of paper into my hand.
"Here's is the bill for my trainer "referring to Sergei, who got left behind when the kids escaped from the Lilliputtians", which you cost me at the course." Said, Pacifica. "Since the Lilliputians were your idea, I expect you to compensate me for my loss. Oh, and I will only accept money, or your lips, (preferably your lips), as payment."
The last part confused me. "Wait, what?"
But before I could get a response, the gate slammed shut in my face as it'd just done with you.
Confused I looked at the piece of paper that she gave me. Finding not a bill on it, but instead a phone number with the words "call me" beside it.
I was so confused by this. Heck, I ended up spending the entire night thinking about what had transpired then. Eventually, I figured from the way she acted around me in the car, gave me her number, and how she'd indirectly said she wanted me to kiss her, that Pacifica Northwest had a crush on me. Though I couldn't figure why she would choose me over the thousands, (if not millions), of guys more suited to her level.
Soon I began wondering why I even cared. I mean after all the hateful things she'd said to you, to our friends and family, why in hell would I ever go out with her? But as I continued to think about it, the more I came to realize how she was incredibly gorgeous. By morning I'd come to the conclusion that somehow developed a crush on Pacifica Northwest. Which made me hate myself because of how horrible she was. Yet I couldn't help it, I got butterflies in my stomach every time I thought about her.
After some more thinking I decided to call Pacifica and talk to her about it. See if she really did like, like me, or if this was some sort of revenge scheme. Fortunately, you and Wendy, were out doing your own separate things, while Soos and Grunkle Stan were preoccupied with negotiating a business deal to acquire question mark shaped key chains. This allowed me to make my call without having to worry about how to explain why I was calling Pacifica Northwest.
Using the number she gave me, I called up the Northwest Manor, expecting to hear a butler on the other end. But instead, (and to my surprise), I heard Pacifica's voice.
"I was hoping you'd call cutie," she greeted.
"Hu…Hu…hey Pacifica. Listen would you mind if we got together somewhere so that we could, maybe, talk? Perhaps somewhere private. My sister would probably freak out if she saw me talking to you.'
'Sure. I'd love to. How about in the library, in the history section, say two o'clock?" Answered Pacifica.
"That would be perfect," I said in response. "See you there.'
'See you there, handsome," she said before hanging up. Honestly, I couldn't help but blush when she called me handsome.
Anyway, since you, "Wendy", was using the golf cart at the time. I began running towards the library. Knowing that it'd probably be two o'clock by the time I made it there on foot.
Which, of course, I was right about since by the time I got to the library's front entrance, it was two o'clock.
I then made my way towards the library's history section. Finding Pacifica looking at her reflection in a compact mirror.
Upon seeing me coming towards her, she put her compact mirror away and greeting me by saying, "why if it isn't one of the mystery twins. Particularly the handsome/smart twin."
Once again I blushed. "Hello Pacifica," I said as I sat down across from her.
"So, have you come to pay me back for Sergei?" She asked.
"Actually I came to ask why you were flirting with me yesterday. Is this some sort of plot you got going to get revenge on me for calling your family frauds? Or are you trying to annoy my sister by making her think that I'm dating her worst enemy?'
'Huff, okay, I guess I should've expected this." She replied. "Look Dipper, the thing that I, sort of, have a crush on you."
I could not believe this. Even when she said the words out loud to me, I just couldn't. So in response, I said, "No way. Is this some sort of joke? Because if it is then I don't find it funny."
"No I'm serious," she protested, (which she was clearly showing).
"This is not a joke. Nor does this have anything to do with what happened during Pioneer Day, or how I hate your sister. I actually do like, like you. I have ever since you had the courage to show me those documents stating the truth about my family. You showed yourself to be courageous, given since no boy, has ever had the courage to speak to me like that, (which I find very hot). Plus I've been watching you lately and found that on top of your courage, you're also smart, pretty cute, very mature, (unlike your sister), and are prepared to do what many would think is unfair in order to beat your enemies. These are the traits I look for in a boyfriend; and after what happened yesterday, I decided that now was the time to make the move."
Honestly, I had never been as flattered before as I was then. Though you guys probably think that she was lying. But from the way she spoke, I could tell that she was being sincere. But if that isn't enough, then what she said next definitely confirmed it.
"Now I know my parents want me to date people with lots of money so that the family fortune will continue increasing. However, I want I guy who'll love me for "me" and not my money. Someone I can share adventures, my feelings, and enjoy life with. When I look at you I see that man I dream about, (I can even ignore the part of you being Mabel's brother)."
At that moment I could tell that Pacifica truly had a loving side within her. One that blew away any hesitations I had about dating her. To show her that I shared the same feelings to her that she had for me, I leaned across the table, grabbed Pacifica's jacked, and gave a kiss right on the lip. She gladly accepted this by kissing me back. As we kissed, I felt like fireworks were going off in our hearts. It was then that I felt truly/deeply liked, (if not loved), Pacifica Northwest.
TO BE CONTINUED...
Okay, so now we know how Dipper and Pacifica got together. Now we need to know if there are any other reasons for why the pre-teen chose to keep it a secret. As well as how Mabel, Wendy, and Soos will react now that they've heard the story behind their relationship.
