When We're Older

1st Month: Chapter 25

Pacifica's POV

it's been a few weeks since I told Mabel I was pregnant

and life really hasn't changed

I've just been at home most of the time other than me going out for fresh air

Mabel's been helping by making maternity sweaters

"I think the purple one suits you, nice," Mabel said

"Thanks," I said back

"Wow, it must be difficult being pregnant," Mabel said to me

"Yeah... at least...."

"ooh I'm so glad my fashion design classes paid off," Mabel said

"Yeah, well, would you like a drink?"
I asked her

"Sure," She said

I went to the kitchen to grab a drink for both of us

"Will water be ok?" I asked

"Yeah," Mabel said

I got 2 waters

"Hey, can I ask you something, Mabel?"

"Anything you want," She said

"Do you think I'll be a good mother?"

"Pacifica, I believe that you'll be the best mother," Mabel said

"And hey, I'll be here every step of the way,"

Mabels POV

when I said those words to Pacifica, I really meant it

I know in the past she's been mean, but who could blame her with her parents

and anyways it's not every lifetime you get pregnant at 19,

"Thanks, Mabel," Pacifica said

She started to tear up

"Pacifica..."

"I'm fine, just emotional,"

"Hey wanna know a secret?" I said

"What is it?" Pacifica asked

I gave her a sticker
with the words 'You're Doing Great' on it

"Mabel-"

"Hey, if you need anything, you know where I am."

"Thank you," Pacifica said

I left their house and eventually made it to mine

"Ah, home sweet home." I said

Pacifica's POV

honestly, Mabel has really helped with the whole situation

she made me feel at peace

I then sat down, and

relaxed

i actually felt relaxed

something about sitting knowing that people are willing to support you in this means a lot

Dipper's POV

I came home, and
saw Pacifica sitting on the couch

"Hey, are you OK?"
I asked

"Yeah.. I'm just tired. " Pacifica said

"I get it,"

I went up to Pacifica and gave her a hug

"we'll get through this together." I said
