Chapter 3: Gazing at the stars
(Disclaimer! I own nothing of Gravity Falls!)
Later that evening Dipper snuck out of the shack when everyone else was sleep.
He made it to the top and saw Wendy looking out in the sky.
She looked down and saw Dipper.
"Hey dork," she said.
"Hi Wendy," said Dipper trying to hide his blush.
"Care to join me?" she asked.
"Sure," said Dipper, "Um… how did you get my number?"
"Your sister," said Wendy, "She said if anything bothered me I could text you about it."
"I'll have to have a word with her," said Dipper, "Anyways, what's up?"
Wendy sighed.
"Listen…. About that day… I wanna apologize," said Wendy, "I was just angered about Robbie, and I took it out on you, and I shouldn't have done that."
"Its me who should be sorry," said Dipper, "I feel like I did this to you."
"Don't be itchy on me man," said Wendy, "So still friends?"
"Of course," said Dipper.
Wendy gave Dipper a big hug.
"Um…. You're kidna…. Crushing me," said Dipper trying to breathe.
"Sorry," she said with a smile.
They were looking at the stars.
"You know something dipper?" asked Wendy.
"What's that?" asked Dipper.
"I hope the fun times we have never end," said Wendy.
"Me too," said Dipper.
"Hey, do you wanna hang some week, just you and me?" asked Wendy.
"Yeah!" said Dipper, "I mean… that's cool."
She looked at her watch.
"I better head back," she said, "See you later Dipper."
"Bye," he said.
Before she left she surprised Dipper by giving him a peck on the cheek.
She then started heading home.
Counting Stars by One Republic.
Wendy: Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard,
Said, no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars, yeah we'll be counting stars
Dipper: I see this life like a swinging vine
Swing my heart across the line
And my face is flashing signs
Seek it out and you shall find
Old, but I'm not that old
Young, but I'm not that bold
I don't think the world is sold
I'm just doing what we're told
Wendy: I feel something so right
Doing the wrong thing
I feel something so wrong
Doing the right thing
I could lie, coudn't I, could lie
Dipper and Wendy: Everything that kills me makes me feel alive1

Down this river, every turn
Hope is a four-letter word

Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly

Grunkle Stan opened the door.
"Dipper what are you doing?" he asked.
"Oh I'm…. just looking out at the stars," answered Dipper, "They're really beautiful tonight."
"So they are," said Grunkle Stan, "Well, don't stay up too late, we got a big day coming up."
He went back inside.
"And by the way, nice lungs," he said.
Dipper smiled and went back inside and went to sleep.
Someone was watching the whole thing.
"I will have my vengeance," he said.
