Falling for Stars || Dipper x Pacifica

Chapter 2.

Dippers POV:

I have missed this little town. Gravity Falls was still my favorite place in the world, even after what happened some years back.

Not having been here in five years felt weird, we just stayed one summer but it had felt like so much more time. I really wished Mabel and me could've come visit more often.

But then things got a little more complicated at home. The divorce between our parents didn't go smoothly to say the least.

"I'm so happy to see you guys again!", yelled Mable excitedly as she got out of my car and ran up to our grunkles hugging them tightly. I had parked in the small parking lot of Greasy's Diner. I really loved when we came here. The food wasn't the best of the best but it honestly had a good atmosphere. Stan said he made a reservation, which sounded weird because I didn't even remember this diner needed reservations in the first place. But I guess it's nice that he made the effort for us.

Mabel was chatting to our grunkles while we walked into the diner, even after all this time, she didn't lose even a bit of her energetic personality. Ford held open the door for all three of us and then came in after.

After we sat down, I started reading grunkle Fords new notes about something they discovered while on their boating trip so I didn't even look up when the waitress came to our table and greeted us with a; "Welcome to the Greasy's Diner! Here's your menus.", and put four menus on the table. I know its rude but I was just so deep into that topic.

"Oh, my! Pacifica!"
I suddenly heard Mable's surprised voice.

Wait. Did she just say?..

"That's me. Long time no see, right?"

I looked up from the notes and it was her indeed. Pacifica Northwest, pretty as ever, even in the waitress uniform, wait, she works at the diner?
I realized that I had been looking at her for a bit too long, while not even saying a word. Well it's not like I even know what I could say to her.

"I'll be your waitress today, so just tell me if y'all need anything."

Mable became more excited now that she met Pacifica.

"It's so good to see you again! I'll definitely have to come here more often just to see you!"

Pacifica responded with a kind smile.

Ford was already going through the menu, looking for something, anything, that he could possibly like. My eyes darted back onto the pieces of paper in my hands, just out of politeness a small; "Good to see you.", came out of my mouth.

Soon Mable and grunkel Stan came up with our order, pancakes with butter and maple syrup, and orange juice. Only Ford said something about a normal lunch should be a salad or something that has eggs in it, so he only ordered salad for himself as well as a orange juice.

"Okay, so, three pancakes with butter and maple syrup. Four orange juices. And one salad with eggs. Is that correct?"

"Yes, thank you, Pacifica.", grunkle Stan answered her question.

When she went back to the kitchen, and couldn't see our table anymore, Mable punched me in my arm.

"Outsch! What was that for?"

"Why are you acting so damn stupid?", she asked me angrily.

"Eh I'm so dumb we didn't see echother for five years but I'll just be reading some stupid notes instead of trying to talk to you like normal person!" She mocked me in a deeper voice, trying to imitate me or something. Ford turned away trying to hide his smile but Stan full on started laughing loudly at me.
