Crazy For You

Chapter 16

(Dipper pov)

I look up at Bill as he gets off of me and looks towards the door. "Bill-"

"Shh. Go in the bathroom and lock the door. Now."

Getting up I go into the bathroom locking myself in it. I hear the door to the motel room open and it sounds like Bill is talking to someone. A woman I think.

"Hell-oh.....hi. Why are you here? How did you even get here?"

"I have a car so I drove. Where is he?"

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"Bill, I know that he's here. Please I need to talk to him."

"For all I know, you would just send him back to be locked away until he eventually kills himself."

"Th-That isn't true."

"Yes it is. If I hadn't gotten him out of there when I did then he would have done the unthinkable."

"....please let me talk to him. I need him to know that I'm on his side. No one even knows I'm here, they think I went to visit mom and dad in Piedmont."

"What about Ford?"

"Not even he knows that I'm here."

"And Stan?"

"He encouraged me to come but he himself doesn't know exactly where I am."

I hear Bill sigh. "Fine, come in." I hear someone enter the motel room and then the door shuts. "Come on out, Pinetree."

I come out of the bathroom and am surprised to see Mabel in the room. She goes to hug me but I keep he at arms length. "What are you doing here?"

"I had to see you again."

"How did you even know I was here?"

"I guessed that after the asylum burnt down you would have made your way here to colorado. So I've just been going to motels and asking if people have seen you. I got lucky when the manager here said that you guys had a room together."

"Ford called the police on me. That were going to keep me locked in that hell hole. The doctor there knew that I wasn't insane but he kept me locked away just to protect his own self."

"Ford doesn't know I'm here. Stan is still trying make him see that you aren't crazy and that you aren't dangerous to anyone."

She takes out a wad of cash and hoolds it out to me. "Mabel, where did you get all of that?"

"Some of it was from my savings account, most I took out of Stan's register on my last shift."

"No. No way, I can't just take all of this. There has to be hundreds of dollars here."

"Nearly two thousand actually and you have to take it."

"No I can't."

"Yes you can. You need it more then I do." She puts the wad of cash in my hands. "Last time you came to me, asking for help, I barely gave you anything. This time I am making sure that you have more then enough for whatever your plans are." Reaching into her pocket again she hands an an iPhone that looks identical to hers. "In case you ever need help or just want to talk in general. My number is already saved in it."

"But woudn't they be able to trace this back to you?"

"Oh don't worry about that. I had it bought under the name of 'Gideon Gleeful'."

"....who?"

"Just this jerk from back in Gravity Falls. Don't worry about it. The phone bill will always be sent to his family so no one will be able to trace you. Promise."

She then out of nowhere punches my shoulder hard. "Ow! What the fuck was that for?"

"For not telling me that you were screwing around with a freaking demon."

"We aren't...i-it's not like that! And there wasn't exactly an easy way to tell you he was a demon without you freaking out on me." I rub my arm wincing slightly. "Geez, you punch really fucking hard for a girl."

"Stan had me take boxing lessons after some guys tried to mug me a while back." She just shrugs it off like it's no big deal before she turns to Bill. "If you ever hurt my little brother, I swear that I will hunt you down and make you regret it dearly."

"Mabel, come on." I gently grab her arm as she turns back to face him. "You threaten him too much and you'll scare him off. And once again, I am not that much younger then you so stop saying how I'm your little brother all the time."

"5 minutes is still 5 whole minutes. No matter how you look at it I am older and therefore the alpha."

"Mabel-"

"Alpha twin! Alpha twin!" I laugh as she starts chanting that over and over again.

"Alright alright you made your point already."

She hugs me tightly and I can't breath until she lets go of me again. "I should get going before Ford tries to file me as a missing person. Just text me if you ever need anything, I'll be in touch."

She leaves the motel room and I peek out the window watching as she gets into her small pink car and drives away. I feel Bill standing over my shoulder watching her leave too.

".....do you think she can be trusted?"

"You wouldn't have let her in if you thought she would rat us out."

"Good point." He wraps his arms around me and gently kisses my cheek. "So, any plans on where you want us to go or what to do?"

"I don't know.....do you think maybe one day we can find a nice place to settle down in so we won't have to run anymore?"

"Maybe. We don't have to settle down you now. We could just keep moving all over the country."

"I know but I think it would be nice to find a place where we don't have to be scared of someone finding out who I am."

".....then I promise you that as soon as we find a place you like, a place that feels like home to you, we will settle down with a nice house and maybe both of us working really nice jobs."

I turn around to look at him. "You promise?"

"Of course I promise. And you know I never break my promises to you." He kisses my forehead softly before he leads me back to the bed and we both lay down on it as he switches the lights off. I feel him wrap his arms around me as I fall into a blissful sleep.
