Wendy's POV:
As soon as the door closed, I slapped my palm against my face.
Why did I lead him on like that?! Now he thinks I like him back! I was just trying to show sympathy!
"Ugh..." I groaned, holding my head in my hands as I scolded myself for being such an idiot.
I dragged my feet as I walked to the den, plopping down on the yellow armchair in defeat.
"What am I gonna do?" I said aloud, throwing my hands up.
"Dunno, but we can play board games if you want."
I whirled around to see Soos walking in, holding a large stack of... board games. I brought my hand up to my chest to feel my heart beat, and replied to Soos.
"Dear God, Soos, you almost gave me a heart attack."
"Sorry dude. Hey, I found all these in a cabinet in the gift shop. Wanna play? There's chess, checkers, Cake Land..."
"Not really Soos... I kinda have problems to deal with..." I say groggily, sitting back down on the armchair.
Soos set down the games on the table and walked to me, sitting down crosslegged on the carpet.
"What kind of problems?"
"Love... problems..." I answer, looking down at my lap.
"Maybe you are in need of help from me, the Love Guru," he said, switching to deep, zen Soos.
I bit back my laughter to respond,"sounds legit. Let's see if you can."
"Describe your dilemma, young grasshopper." He said, his tone serious despite how silly his last sentence was.
"Well, uh... when I was looking for Dipper in his room, I found this piece of paper on the floor..." I begin.
"Continue," Soos instructed.
"It was, uh... a note that Dipper had wrote for me, but he obviously wasn't gonna give it to me."
"What did it say?" Soos prodded.
"It said that he had a crush on me and that... He loved me. It was so sweet, Soos..." I trail off, looking down at my boots in sadness.
"Yes, yes... go on," Soos said, nodding.
"So, I still had to find him, and I found him up in his favorite tree. I scared him on accident, and he dropped his notepad into my hands. He was writing another love letter for me."
"Mmmhmm."
"And then I told him to come down, and we sat on the porch to talk. I asked him why he liked me, and why he never told me. He said the cutest things..."
Soos nodded again and I continued, suddenly feeling queasy.
"A- And... I was just trying to show him sympathy! I don't actually like him back, but I feel so bad for him!" I shout, defensively.
"Woah, grasshopper. The fire in your soul is burning your heart. You must tame that fire, young grasshopper."
Um, whatever that means...
"Calm down. What did you do?"
I leaned down to cover my face with my hands, shaking my head in shame.
"I kissed him on the cheek. And now, I'm sure he thinks I feel the same way," I mumble.
"Hmm, that is quite difficult, young grasshopper... I will consult my wisdom for an answer to your problem," he said, stroking his chin, deep in thought.
I looked up at him, feeling a small bit of hope blossom inside me. Maybe he can help me.
"Dude, I got nothin'."
A/N: Lol. I always love how Soos can get all serious like that. Anyway, if you haven't heard the news, The Call is being rebooted! (You can go to my profile for more info on that.)
If you have any thoughts on where this story should go, or if you have an idea for something else, slap it in a review and I'll see what I can do!
Love y'all!
