DIPPER X BILL ONE SHOTS

Lies

***Bill***

Today will be the day. Today, I will tell Dipper... that... god. Which one do I tell him? Well, either way, I'm telling him that I... I love him... but... should I tell him... who I am?

I'm genuinely afraid to. I scared him as a kid. I brought out this endless paranoia and lack of trust. I'm the one who did this to him... and he doesn't even know that it's me...

I'll tell him... eventually... but, until then, Bill Cipher, the demonic, floating triangle, is long gone, and I am simply another human named William Central. Well, to him, I'm not just any human. I've been going to school with him since eighth grade... and we've been dating since tenth grade... apparently, I was the first person, besides his sister, of course, that he told he was gay. That was right before eighth grade ended. Ha... it's funny how time passes for humans. When we first 'met', he looked so different. He acted differently, too... I remember the first conversation he had with this human.

"Hey... you're the new kid here... right?" I nod with a wide smile. Human bodies are weird...

"Yeah!! My name's Bill!!!" His eyes widen. "Actually, it's William, but everyone calls me Bill for some reason!!" Good save, Bill... good save.

"C-... can I call you Will or William or anything besides Bill? Please?" I make myself look confused.

"Sure... but why?"

"Well... an... it was... it's a long story..."

"An old friend?"

"Anything but a friend."

I'd be lying if I said that his words didn't hurt... but I didn't blame him. I still don't. I ruined his life... at this point, I regret it... for the first year, I was playing around with him. Not too badly though... and it got old after a few months. Being a powerless, small, human has its limits. Afterwards, though, we became really good friends. Like, really good, and he helped me calm down from going kookoo. I always told him that the doctors said I have mental problems, but they haven't locked me up yet because I haven't hurt anyone. Eh... if I were human for real, that's probably the most accurate statement there ever has been. If I were to visit a doctor, though, he would lock me up.

Anyways, we became 'best' friends quickly. That's when he told me. Then, life went on, ninth grade passed. By that time, I had half confessed to him that I was genuinely insane, and that he didn't have to stay by my side. He did anyways.

"Besides, if I left you, who would keep you from losing it and killing everyone?"

I chuckle. "I wouldn't kill you, even if I were completely out of it."

Tenth grade came along. I finally started showing feelings. Specifically, feelings I felt for him. The feelings I still do feel for him... he didn't notice, which is really weird. I had made it really, really obvious. I hugged him, told him pickup lines, got him cute Valentine's stuff, bought him presents, everything! I did everything the movies and books did... he didn't see it until I straight up told him.

"Dipper, I have something really, really important to tell you." I hold a single flower behind my back. My bow tie feels tighter than before and I suddenly feel everything I'm wearing become a million degrees.

It doesn't show. He looks at me confused. "Okay...?"

I take a deep breath in, and exhale. Then another... than another... than another... I'm going to tell him!! I'm not human, why am I afraid of this?? "I-" I stutter a single word. "I- uh... I really kinda maybe sorta... I-I... I..." Man up, Will!! Wait... did I just call myself Will?? Like what he calls me??? I... "I really really like you, Dipper Pines, so will you please be my boyfriend?" I hold out the flower to him while feeling my heart race. It pounds painfully against my chest, and I wouldn't be shocked if he could hear it.
