Summer with the Pine Twins: Summer's Coming to an End

The Love God: Part 4

Mabel's p.o.v.

I head to the back where Robbie's chili fries were being made and I ask "Mind if I add a little something to these fries?" "I don't see why not," I pour the love potion over the chili and watch as it's served to the two. Robbie takes a bite first. "Woah...Did your whole face suddenly get a lot more likable?" Confused Tambry takes a bite. "You don't seem as needy as I used to think you were." "Hey, you wouldn't maybe wanna get out of here and I dunno...Kiss in public a lot?" "For some reason I do. Status update...You know what? Forget it, maybe I should stare at something other than my phone for a while." The two converse before leaving hand in hand. "Match made!" I shout happily.

(y/n)'s p.o.v.

Everyone except Tambry had met back up at Thompson's place before we'd head over to the Woodstick festival. "Alright, who's ready for the best and most overpriced day of our Summer?!" Wendy asked and we all cheer when Thompson speaks up. "I brought a baggie of trail mix and safety whistles in case we get separated." "Lame!" Dipper coughs out, causing the rest of the group to laugh.

"We're just waiting on Tambry, can't leave without Tambry," That's when Mabel speaks up with a smirk and a wink. "Sorry guys but Tambry is a little busy at the moment. Wink, wink." "What does that mean? Why are you winking?" She excitedly spills the news. "Let's just say her and Robbie took a trip to smoochieville~ Now everyone's happy!" She shows off her chart with happy stickers next to each of our drawings. Oh no she meddled. "Wait...Robbie and Tambry?! This can't be happening!" Lee starts to freak out and I wince at Mabel's confusion, she didn't know Lee liked her,

"He knew I liked her, how could he do this?!" "Woah, hold it. You like Tambry? And you told Robbie but not me?" Nate asks, offended and Lee rolls his eyes. "You always make fun of my crushes man!" "That's what we do genius!" The two start shouting at each other before our attention turns to Wendy as she pulls on her hair. "Ugh, this is so like Tambry to do this, dating my ex behind my back! I'm gonna tear her highlights out!" (I never understood that rule unless there's a chance the two would get back together or the ex was truly horrible. Who cares? Let the two be happy and move on) "Guys, guys! Calm down, we're gonna be late for the concert," I try to de-escalate things. It didn't work. "Uh, newsflash (y/n) I'm not going to the concert, not with him!" Lee points at Nate who crosses his arms. "That won't be a problem because I'm out." "Me too."

They all leave, leaving me, Dipper, Mabel, and Thompson in the garage. "Wait! This group is all I have! Don't make me go back to having no friends!" Thompson shouts to no avail before he angrily turns to us. "What did you just do?! I've let these guys pick on me for years to keep this group together and now it's totally fallen apart!"

"But we were all finally starting to hang out together, we were part of the gang!" Dipper exclaims worriedly and I frown, he had told me how he didn't really have friends back in California, how he only really had Mabel, and how he was happy to finally have a friend group and be included in things. "Well unless you can break up Robbie and Tambry immediately there is no gang, I have no more friends and neither do you!" He storms off, probably to go chase after everyone as Dipper and I turn to Mabel and ask "Mabel, what did we tell you about staying out of Robbie's personal life?"

"I know, I know! I just wanted to be a good matchmaker. I never should of gotten that love potion from the Love God," She tells us which catches our attention. "Wait love potion? If you did a spell then can't you like un-do it?" Dipper asks, causing his sister to gasp. "That's it! If I un-do the spell then everyone will be friends again but I'm gonna need your guy's help. Also Dipper, you are not pulling off that V-neck," She says pointing at Dipper. (not yet) "I know..." He mumbles, Mabel soon shouting "BURN IT!"

Grunkle Stan's p.o.v.

It was sunset and I was at the Woodstick festival and Soos was still working on the hot air balloon, it was a balloon that looked like my smiling face with a poster above that read I heart kids. "Balloon faster Soos we need this thing up in the air before the festival ends!" "Are you sure that, that open flame should be that close to that dangling cloth and rope?" "I'm sure about everything. Now lube up those gears with some carnosine. MORE CARNOSINE!"
