This Wasn't How It Was Supposed To Go (BillDip)

Chapter 5 - It Doesn't Matter Anymore

Previously: Dipper rolled his eyes but, he was smiling on the inside. His plan to befriend the infamous Bill Cipher was working.

(Dipper's POV) 23 Days Since Weirdmageddon Went Global

That day, Bill and I talked we only spoke for a little bit. Well, it was more like me asking a bunch of questions and him deciding whether to answer or not. It was a start! I hope. Though, he hasn't come back to my room since. It's weird. I usually see him every or every other day.

It's been about 4. It's a little boring, to be honest, without Bill. I don't practically miss the gu-, I mean demon, but he's way more interesting than his hench-maniacs.

"I'm glad you think so, Pinetree," Bill remarked, appearing out of nowhere. I jumped at his voice. "Oh goodness! You scared me!" I screamed at his face, holding my chest. I hate being ambush like that. "That is my job, Pinetree." Bill, devilishly, stated. I rolled my eyes, then remembered what he said. "Did you read my mind?" I looked at the demon in question, wanting an answer.

Bill laughed. That's all I needed. His reactions say everything. "Were you spying on me?" I asked. Not really wanting an answer, but I still had to ask. "I do. All the time, Pinetree!" He told me this like I wanted the answer. He probably read my mind, again. I started thinking about my plans of befriending Bill. Is this way he wasn't in the mood the other day? Cause I was thinking about befriending him so, I could convince him to let me see Mabel. Did he also hear about my ideas to stop him when I wrote in my journal? I was thinking before writing.

"Yes, yes. I've heard all your plans.." Bill rolled his eyes and floated to the still, untouched bed. I don't know how he can sit there with all of it, or them, moving. "I honestly don't care. You could try but, they won't work, even if I didn't hear them!" He laughed at my predicament.

I heavily sighed. I can't do anything without Mabel. I'm going to be stuck here till I die. Just great. I sit down at the broken chair. Just as I was about to say something, the chair broke. Bill laughed. "Isn't pain hilarious?!" He seemed to be smirking. I rubbed my butt as I got up. "So hilarious," I spoke with absolute sarcasm and rolled my eyes at him. I grasped the Pinetree rug and placed it down on the ground. I sat on the Pinetree rug and had to look up to Bill like I was a dog looking up at its master. I groaned and looked away from him. Bill chuckled at the sight; he liked looking down on me.

If I am going to be here, forever then I would like to still befriend Bill as much as possible. I don't care if befriending Bill gets me nowhere toward Mabel. I would like someone to be there. I breathed in and breathed out. I looked back at Bill he snickered. "Why did you do today?" I almost genuinely smiled at him.

(Bill's POV)

I heard Pinetree's thoughts but, I didn't think he proceed with it. So I was a little shocked when he asked me about MY day. I didn't let him see that, though. "I went to Tokyo, Japan today. It was weird to see some people still unaffected by Weirdmageddon, but that precisely makes it ten times more fun!" I cackled when I remembered all the horrified faces.

I looked to see Pinetree somewhat intrigued. Tokyo?! That's crazy! I heard Pinetree say this. What a weird teenaged-boy. He did acknowledge that I hurt people but, he seemed to care more about Tokyo. I laughed again.

"It's super pretty. That's saying something coming from me," I told the kid. His face turned red. I was confused. Was he burning? I silently laughed. I wish. "You must've heard my thoughts." Pinetree chuckled. "I've always wanted to travel!" He paused for a moment and realized his mistake. "I mean outside the country. I've had my fair share of vacations." He corrected himself. He was still red, but it was dying down.

(Hours Later)

I don't know why but, I stayed with Pinetree to, simply, talk. Talk. I know! It sounds crazy! We did nothing but talk. We talked for hours but, it felt like a few minutes.

Though I kept reading his thoughts to see if he would do something, his mind was focused on me or the topic on hand. It was weird. Something like this only ever happens when I'm tricking people that I'm 'friendly': like with Sixer. But Pinetree knew my intentions, my deeds. Still, he continued to talk with me. It was...it was okay, I guess. Pinetree laughed and smiled a lot. All I could do was listen, talk with him, and laugh at things Pinetree didn't like. I wanted to continue, I don't know why exactly, except I, had to leave.

When I left, I gave him a little something. Just a thank you, nothing more, nothing less.

(Dipper's POV)

Bill said he had to leave. I liked talking with him. It wasn't questions about the unknown but, each other. It made me smile, a lot. I had a friendly conversation with Bill. I hope we have more like it. It takes my mind off Weirdmageddon, which I needed. I want to see my sister but, I know that wasn't going to happen anytime soon. I will wait and in the meantime, make an acquaintance, despite him being Bill, freaking, Cipher.

I get up from my rug and stretch. I remember the chair breaking and went to clean it up but it was replaced by a lovely chair, with a Pinetree, of course.

I smile at it, knowing it was from Bill. I quietly thank him and go on with writing in my journal. It was a diary today about my experience with Bill. I beam while trying to remember every detail.
