Running out of Time <A Gravity Falls Book>

3. 6:30

( I have been sick for a few days so I have had the time to update a lot. )

I wake up to Mabels squealing. "What the...." I groan sitting up. I get dressed and walk out half way asleep causing myself to bump into someone.
"Oh sorry..." I say And look to see dipper. "Dipstick" I end my sentence. He smiles at me and i return the favor. He looked just as tired and confused as me. "Let me guess. You heard the-" then Mabel sqealed again.

"Yes..." I sigh. I yawned and He hugged me. "How did you sleep?" he asked politely. "Fine. Well, the last few hours of it anyway!"I say and he chuckles. Then the sqeal came a third time.

"Oh my gosh!!!!!" I hear and follow Dipper walking downstairs.
"Mabel! People are trying to sleep here!" He says. He looked so cute when he was frustrated.

"Hey dipper! Hey lizzie!" Mabel said excitedly. I didn't like being called lizzie..."it's lilly!" I said a bit sassy. I wanted no part of that name. "Oh s-sorry Lilly I didn't mean t-"

"I-its ok Mabel. I'm sorry." I interrupted. I than noticed Dipper was looking at me.
I focused back on Mabel.
"What is with the squeals? Its like 6:30 in the morning?!" I say.

"I was watching my favorite show with grenda and candy!" she says. "Who is grenda and candy?" I asked. "Its her friends." Dipper explains.
"Oh."

I than noticed the two girls on the ground looking at the tv and smiling. One had Brown hair in a short ponytail and a pink short and the other had mid-lenghth black hair and glasses with a blue-ish shirt. "Hi!" that BOTH said in unison not taking their eyes off the screen. I waved.

"Just keep it down some ma-" Dipper was interrupted by my phone going off again. I apologized and saw I had another message:

Brxu sdvw hdxqwv brx dv wkh ixwxuh dzdlwv brx oloob.

I was so confused to these messages. They made absolutely no sense?! "Everything okay Lilly pad?" Dipper asks. I look up and and sigh. "Y-yeah. Hey l-listen I just need s-some fresh air o-out?" I stutter. He gives me a sympathetic look.

I shook my head and walked out side. I think that these messages resemble something. I just don't know What. I sit on the steps and read the message over and over again. But nothing.

These didn't start coming until I got here? I look around and take deep breathes. Then Dipper walked out.
"What's going on with you?" he asked. "What was on your phone that made you look so terrified?" he asked.
"I looked terrified?" I ask. He nods and sits down next to me. I sighed. I knew those messages was because of someone or something in gravity falls.

"Plus you freaked when Mabel called you lizzie?" he added.
"Well...ever since I was a toddler I would get picked on and hurt by this girl..." I say wanting to go into tears. "And her name was lizzie wasn't it?" Dipper asked. And I nodded. A tear dropped from my cheek to the grass.

"She made fun of my birthmark, my red hair and blue eyes, even my past..." I said wiping a droplet from my face. He have me a giant hug and i embraced him.

"I am sorry. I didn't know that." he said. "Well i-i mean...how were you supposed t-to?" I sniffles. He rubbed my back and I smiled weakly.

Finally I let go and sighed. Maybe Dipper knows what was going on...but maybe not... I said to myself.
"Mabel feels really bad you know. She thinks she did something wrong." he anounced. I stood up and sniffled. "Why would she ever think that?" I asked. He shrugged. "I need to go apologize." I say. He nods and we walk inside. Mabel looked sad. She wasn't squealing over her show or gossiping with her friends. Just sitting there petting waddles.

"Mabel." I say And she turns. "Lilly I am sorry for anythi-"

"Mabel it wasn't anything you did. I just got touchy because everyone calls me lizzie. And I have known a lizzie and she was not on my good side in the past." I explain. Mabel smiles and nods. "I thought you were mad at me, or So I was thinking..." She said. I shook my head.

She looked back at the tv and squeals. I smile. Then Dipper put his hand on my shoulder.

"I am gonna try and get some sleep." Dipper said yawning. I look at him and smile. Then I yawn. I hit him playfully in the chest. "Stop your making me tired!" I say blushing.

He blushed. "Well w-would you L-like to join m-me?" He questioned. My heart slipped a beat or two. I could feel myself heating up.
"Oh...u-ummm. Sure!" I say smiley. He grins his goofy grin.
"C-cool!" He says. I take his hand and hear snickering from behind us. He blushes. We walk upstairs.
He shuts his door and lies down under the blankets. He pats softly on a spot next to him. It was dark outside So the room was still dark.

I scoot innand I get comfy next to him. He wraps his arms around me and it makes me heat up. I nuzzle my face into his chest. I listen to his steady heart beat.
I slowely fall asleep as I listen to him breath and love. "I promised Lilly pad." he whispered before falling to sleep.
