Sweet like Candy

Candy's POV

After a while, Dipper went over to the secret room where apparently he'll be sleeping. I remember that as the body possession room, haha.
"Okay girls! Time to bake some cookies!" Mabel announces, a wide grin on her face.
"I LOVE COOKIES!!" Grenda yells in excitement.
I smile. "I brought cookie dough!" I say, going to get my bag in which I left beside the door. I grab cookie dough and come over to the girls with it.
"Perfect! Nice job, Can-Can!" Mabel high fives me.
After a while of making cookies, we're finally finished. We just have to wait for it to cool down, so while we wait, we play extreme T or D in Mabel and Dippers room, AKA the attic.
"Candy! Truth or dare?" Mabel asks.
"Dare!" I answer.

"I dare you.." She takes a while to think before saying, "I dare you to go into where Dipper is and.. Uh. Hmmm... Ask if you can wear his hoodie! And if he says yes, wear it for until tomorrow, but if he says no, kiss his forehead." I can hear her and Grenda squealing under their breath.

"What!? No way! I'm still trying to become his friend right now, remember?"
"If you don't do it, you'll have to eat a toothpaste Oreo. Remember the rules, girl! Also I know he'll say yes." Mabel smirks, knowing I'll have to do it either way. Also, I hate toothpaste Oreos, but this is EXTREME T or D, so what do I expect?
I sigh.

"Fine." I get up and walk over to the hidden-but-no-longer-hidden room where Dipper is lying on the bed on his phone with headphones on.
I knock on the door, and he takes his headphones off.
I pretend to be cold so that I can atleast have a reason.
"Oh, hey Candy. What's up?" He smiles at me with his perfect smile. Honestly I kind of want him to say no. Wait— what is wrong with me!?
"Uh.. So.. It's really cold in the shack.. And I don't have any warm clothes because I usually sleep in the clothes I wear during the day, so I was wondering if I could borrow a hoodie of yours for a day? Just for a day." I ask.
He starts to think, then a tint of blush appears on his cheeks.
"Sure." He accepts. "My hoodies and shirts are on the big part of my closet." He informs. I smile. "Thank you!" And suddenly, my body makes me do something I wouldn't have done.
Oh my gosh I'm hugging him. He's so warm!!

He hugs me back..
AHHHHHHHH!!!
I feel heat rise up to my cheeks and ears. I go upstairs into the attic where Mabel and Grenda are found. "Soo?" Mabel says.
"He said yes." I smile.
Mabel and Grenda squeal real loud, like roosters. I look in his closet and grab one of his hoodies. It's an oversized (for me) plain black hoodie, and it's so comfortable.
"Aww! You look so cute in it!" Grenda says after I put it on. I sit down with them hugging myself. For a guy as hot as him, he has a really comfortable choice of style.

"Grenda. Truth or dare?" I ask.
"Truth!"
"If you met a genie, what would your three wishes be?"
"UHH, OKAY, 1.For a really cute dress, 2.for a new blanket sense I really just want a really fluffy one, and 3.for Candy to kiss Dip—"
"OH MY GOSH ARE YOU SERIOUS!?" I yell after hearing the last things she says. Mabel and Grenda laugh.
I decide to change the subject. "Wait, girls, do you think the cookies are ready?"
"Oh yeah! Let's go see!" Mabel says, running outside the room to go downstairs. Grenda and I follow her.

We look at the cookies, there's about 4 on there.
"Why's there four, anyway?" Grenda asks.
"I wanna give one to my brother!" Mabel smiles. She's so polite with her brother. I wish I had a sister or a brother.
"Oh, nice."
We grab a cookie a eat it, then Mabel goes away to give Dipper one. I start to daydream about him.
He's so cute. I wonder if he even likes me back. I hope he does.
"Candy? Candy? Candy!" I get snapped out of my thoughts. "Oh, sorry! What's up?" I look at Grenda and Mabel.
"Girl, Are you alright?" Mabel asks.
"Yeah, I'm okay! Just thinking about D-...Uh.. Just thinking about daydream stuff." Nice save, me!
"Mhm. Suureee." Mabel teases. Nevermind, me.
"Anyway, Candy, it's still your turn for truth or dare." Mabel changes the subject.
"Oh right. Mabel, truth or dare."
"Dare."
"Uh. Do a cartwheel?"
"Okay!"
After multiple turns, it's Mabel's turn again.
"Candy. Truth or dare?"
"Hmm. Dare I guess?"
"Lay on Dipper for a minute and a half." Mabel smirks at me.
"U-uhhh.. Are you sure he's gonna like that?" I say, nervous.
"Totally! Now go, girl!" She shakes me by my shoulders and let's go of me, letting me go back to where Dipper is.
I knock on the door.
"Come in." I hear.
I enter the room, and still, he's lying on the bed, but this time he's drawing in a journal. He puts it down on the floor and slightly sits up.
"Hey, Candy. Need anything?" He smiles, again. This day is getting so random for me, but I'm sure it's even more random for him.
I sit down beside him, then lightly fall down on him, lying my head on his chest. I can see Mabel and Grenda peeking through the door, but I guess Dipper doesn't notice because the only person he's looking at is me.

Dippers POV

What in the world is going on today?
Why is she lying on me?
Did Mabel and Grenda make her do this?
But honestly Candy looks so adorable in my hoodie. I can feel myself blushing. After a few seconds I calm down and just lie there. I remember a time she did something like this. Honestly, I hated that day, but I remember when we were twelve, Candy and I went to that weird cave place and sat on the log together, and she lied her head on my shoulder. I can't believe what I did honestly, but it did kind of help me move on from my weird obsession with Wendy.
I look down at Candy, and decide to finally ask.
"Did Mabel and Grenda set you up to this?" I ask.
She stays silent. I knew it.
"Sorry." She sighs.
"It's okay." I reassure her.
I knew she didn't like me. I'm just being weird.
I sigh quietly. Soon enough she gets up and leaves. I cover myself in my blanket and can feel tears coming in my eyes. I'm crying for a girl, again. It's not anyone's fault, I guess I just feel this. If I confess she'll just reject me. I hate rejection.

Candy's POV

I feel really bad for Dipper now. I mean, of course it's not Mabel's fault or anything like that, plus she didn't know, but..
He just seems so sad.
But why? Does he like me back?
"Ah, Candy, I'm sorry." Mabel frowns, her left hand holding her right arm.
"It's okay! It's not anyone's fault." I hug her.
She smiles. "Thanks." She says, hugging back. She lets go of the hug and goes into Dippers 'room.'

Mabel's POV

I walk up to Dipper, who's hiding himself. I can hear quiet sniffing. "Dipper.. I'm sorry."
"It's not your fault, Mabel." He sighs, placing the blanket off his head, no longer hiding himself.
"Then how come you're crying?" I hug him.
He puts his head on my shoulder and mumbles something that I can't hear.
"Dipper?"
"I don't know why I'm trying." He chokes on his words.
"What do you mean?"
"She obviously doesn't like me back." He whispers.

Wait.. What!?
