Dipper's POV

[Northwest Mansion, Gravity Falls, Oregon] [11:47 AM]

This is it, You gotta be brave. I hesitantly knocked at the large, ten-feet door and I am here, currently waiting for a response.

The door opens and there she was; standing, disbelief and a little bit of shock on her face, Pacifica. "Hey, What are you doing here?" She chuckles.

It had been three says since that Mystery solving in their Mansion, and we never saw each other, until now.

"H-Hey," I stammered. I completely forgot why I was here. Think Dipper, think! A moment later my mouth tumbles out words.

"The gang and I are going on a Mystery Hunt on this Island at the middle of the Gravity Falls Lake this afternoon, and I, I mean we were wondering if you would like to come?" I ask, holding my breath. Great thinking Dipper. It was actually the reason why I was here; to ask her that.

I was hoping that she wouldn't shut the door at my face, but then to my surprise she replies;

"Yeah sure, What time exactly?" She smiles. I let out a sigh of relief because of her positive reply.

"Great! At 2pm. The meeting place is at the Mystery Shack." I say as I smile back.

"Sure," She chuckles.

"Goodbye," I nervously smile as I start walking backwards. Then I ended up tripping on a stone. I fell backwards and landed on the hard surface. "ow!"

"Oh My Gosh. Are you okay?" She tries so hard not to let out a laugh.

"Yes, I'm okay!" I immediately stand up and hide my crimson face. I mentally slap my self.

"Goodbye," She smiles and closes the door.

"Bye," I mutter to myself and ran thirteen feet away from the house. I jump in joy and scream "Yes! Yes!"

I walk back to the Shack and open the door confidently. "Hey Grunkle Stan," I greet Grunkle Stan who is arranging the postcards.

"Well, what happened to you kid? This whole smiling thing is creeping me out." Stan asks, curiously.

"Well, Actually I asked Pa-" I was cut off by him saying;

"Okay okay, I heard enough." He says as he piles up the postcards again. "Interesting story though, I'll give you that."

"I didn't even start yet." I gave him an annoyed look.

"Yeah yeah, I gotta go. Tourists are waiting for me already." He mutters as he finish arranging the last pile of postcards. "Goodbye kid," He smiles enthusiastically as he hums 'Stan Wrong Song'.

"Goodbye I guess?" I mutter to myself.

I walk upstairs and see Mabel struggling, pulling a hanger stuck in her hair. How did that even happen? "Hi bro bro, Where were you?" She asks as she continued to take out the hanger.

"From the Northwest Mansion," I shrug. "Guess what?"

"what?"

"I invited Pacifica on our Mystery Hunt later, and she said 'yes'!" I smile.

"Really?! I'm so proud of you." She says as she smiles at me. "Wait, we have a Mystery Hunt today?" She asks,

"Of course we have, we talked about this yesterday with the others right?" I try to make her remember.

"Well, If I agreed, I can't argue about it now." She smiles and went back to her hanger-pulling-thing.

"What happened?" I ask her as I sat on my bed, grabbing the Journal in my vest.

"Well, just doing some hair tutorial for my blog, Then I forgot the part how this hanger thing." She shrugs as she successfully pulls the hanger out of her hair. "Finally!" She screams in joy.

-Fast Forward three hours-

All of us were already piled up; Mabel, Wendy, Soos and I. They were talking about this rumor about Robbie setting up a concert, and I could tell Wendy was not comfortable with the topic.

I waited for Pacifica to come. I was only paying half attention to what the guys are talking about. I was kinda nervous that she might not come. What if she had second thoughts?

The door opened and there she was, Pacifica. "Hey," She says as she walks towards me, I mean us.

"Hey Pacifica!" Mabel says enthusiastically. "We're so glad that you made it!"

She smiles sheepishly and looks at us. "I'm sorry, I didn't really make a good impression for the past years to you guys." She says sincerely.

"It's fine dude," Soos says as he smiles.

"Just forget it, what past is past." Wendy says cooly as she smiles.

"Thanks guys," She says.

"So, let's go?" I speak up. They all cheer in unison and we all head to the Lake Gravity Falls.

New Mysteries are yet to come.
