Without Her

Chapter Three

I twisted and turned restlessly under my own sheets, trying to calm down. But it was no use. I was balling like a baby.

I just need to sleep.
No. I just need Mabel.

I kicked myself.

You know you can't get her back without making shady deals with Bill.

If only I caught her!

Something's wrong with me.

Next thing I know, I am packing a bag. I had to get out of Piedmont.

I got on the next bus to Gravity Falls. By the time I got there it was around two in the afternoon. And I was exhausted.

There was only one place I could go.

Wendy.

"Dipper? What are you doing here? Are you okay?" She questioned, obviously surprised to see me.

Wendy could see the look on my face. She could tell I needed help.

"Are you okay?" She asked again.

"I-I don't know..." I started to say. "I feel like I am falling apart! My parents don't know I'm here and I just-" I blabbed on and on.

"Your parents don't know you're here?! Dipper you have to go back they could be worried about you!!"

"I had to get away from home."

She gave me an uneasy look. "Do you have somewhere to stay?"

I shook my head.

"Here come in." She ushered me inside. "But- this is for only tonight you have to go home tomorrow."

"Okay.." I nodded. Little did she know my fingers were crossed.

She lead me into a guest room. "This is your room."

"Okay.. And thanks again Wendy."

"You welcome, dork." She smiled.

In the morning I left. Today I was looking for something.

Another way....
