Bill snickered. "Geez, and I thought I was dramatic-"

"Bill.." I twiddle my fingers fearfully. "Am I going to have to watch my family die?"

"Oh shoot-" Bill covered his mouth. "If I'm wrong, I mean I'm human now, so my immortality could be gone-"

"You're never wrong. You know that." I say seriously, looking down.

"You won't be getting all that pizzazz like powers. Basically, since our souls are bonded, I can assume that we can feel each other's emotions. It's more natural that we are going to be drawn to each other too. Stronger. If one of us is sad, the other will feel it. If the feeling is more extreme, the more emotion that the other can feel." Bill explained.

"Oh okay..at least that isn't completely horrible." I muttered.

I don't want to watch my family die. That's horrible. I'd rather die than live without Mabel, Stan, and Ford. It's just plain torture..

I reached across the table and leaned close. Just inches away from his perfect face, his soft, blonde hair..

My mind begins to zone out as my hand slowly creeped into Bill's hair, a smile staining my face.

Bill's face went as ripe as a tomato. "What the heck..?"

My mind suddenly came into focus, and as soon as my body realized what I was doing, my face went in a dark shade of red. I cover my face, shrinking back in my seat. "I'm so s-sorry! I don't know what came over me!"

There was a long silence, neither one knowing what to really say.

Lazy Susan finally came over with our waffles and eggs. "Enjoy your food, cuties," Lazy Susan whispered the end for only herself to hear, as she walked off with a smirk.

Way to good, Mason. You practically made yourself a fool to Bill- Wait, why do I care?! This is messing with my head and who CARES about his gorgeous, fluffy..blonde hair..

"You're fine D- Dipper. It felt weird..and my stomach feels as though butterflies are in it. But, I didn't eat butterflies-" Bill starts, grinning like a fool.

"I!- I uh!- You're just hungry! Start eating!" I blurt, pushing his plate to him.

Bill looked at me skeptically before sniffing the plate. "Eh,"

I dug my fork in my food, taking a bite of the moist, delicious eggs. The butter spread in my taste buds in a salty and smooth texture.

Bill stared at me, a dazed smile on his face.

I stopped, a dark blush on my face. "What? Is there something on my face?" I asked quickly, searching my face frantically.

Bill leaned forward and touched my brunet hair, fluffing it up and chuckling. My face was on fire, eyeing the floor like cement.

"Hmmm nope! All good! Thought there was a venom noodle in your hair!" He adds, pointing to my hair.

"A..what?" I asked.

"Venom noodle! The thingy- with the fangs-" Bill used his fingers to add some pretend fangs on his teeth.

OH-! Oh?- He's so strange-

"You mean a snake?" I asked.

Bill laughed, nodding. "That's the one! The slithered, colored snack!"

"Oh gods, remind me why I shouldn't kill you," I deadpanned.

"Because you care about meeee!" Bill says, crossing his legs and leaning forward. "Plus, who knows? We might die together if you kill me."

Shoot, I didn't think about that.

"Great. So, can't kill you." I muttered sarcastically.

"Hey, I'm still trying to change!" Bill pouts, his eyes moving to the waffles. "Also, what are 'waffles'?'"

I point to the waffles on his plate. "Try it. It's really good," I take a bite of my pancakes, motioning to his plate with my fork.

Bill narrowed his eye, sticking a fork in his waffle, moving it to his face. He slowly took a bite, moving it in his mouth. "SON OF A GUN!" Bill says, once again earning strange looks from everybody. "My taste buds did that?! There's so much flavor! I need more!" Bill blurts, stuffing his face with waffle.

I chuckled, grinning. "There's more food than just waffles. Thousands!" I exclaimed.

Bill gave a cheer. "THE MORE THE MERRIER!" Bill exclaimed back, jumping up. I laughed.

Such a weirdo.

"So..how does it taste? Good? Are you suprised humans can make good food?" I ask dully, crossing my arms.

"Very surprised! It's..hard to explain. It tastes great, like Time Punch! Not as sweet but definitely an amazing food. It's more reassuring..since all I've had is Time Punch," Bill shrugged his shoulders.

"That's nice, I guess. You can try it with syrup too." I offered, passing the syrup.

He grabbed it, tipping it as the contents spilled on the waffle. He took another bite, his eye widening. "HOW?!" Bill uttered loudly, slamming his fists on the table. I flinched at his quick actions to just syrup. Lazy Susan quickly went over. "Is anything wrong?"

"Miss Susan! Oh my, I just wanted to say that you are a true talent! Waffles? Perfection! Syrup? PERFECT!" Bill exclaimed, grinning.

Lazy Susan was taken aback in confusion, but smiled. "That means a lot dear. Really. What's your name?" Lazy Susan asked.

This is escalating too far.

I grab Bill's hand, pulling him out of the seat. "Bye Lazy Susan! See you-"

Bill yanked away, putting his arms on his sides. "My name is William Rephic!" He declared.

"Uh..Bill? Bill, come on-" I ushered quietly.

Bill stuck his tongue out, making his way on top of the table. He stood up and strangers eyes darted to the scene. I covered my face in shame.

"Who thinks Susan's food is amazing?! Raise your hands!" Bill says.

Strangers started to raise their hands one by one; the back cheering; Bill spinning and bowing. Everyone starts to clap for Susan now, a noticeable shy blush on Susan's face.

"Bill let's go!" I whisper from below Bill. Bill looked down, smiling and nodding. He carefully got down and jumped next to me.

I monuvered Bill away from the crowd, finally making it outside.

"I..Why did you do that? How..did you do that? Get people to..notice you? It was kind of crazy..and nice." I say, smiling lightly.

Bill perked up, looking at me.

"Not sure..exactly. I felt like it." Bill states, leaning forward to boop my nose. I blush, shrinking back as Bill lead the way.

That was..nice.
