Dipper's POV

   "Are you kidding me? Really Ford? We have to wait here for the next few days because he is having trouble healing? I hope you realize I could help him right here right now!" "Bill you have no clue as to what that could do to his body!" I was awoken to the sound of people arguing. I rubbed my eyes and yawned. "I'm hungry. Where am I? I want to go home..." I thought to myself. A sharp pain then suddenly shot into my stomach. I grunted and held the area with my hand. "Piney you're awake!" Bill ran into the room and hugged me tightly. I coughed. "What?" "I missed you. Are you alright?" I coughed. No Bill. I'm not alright. Isn't that obvious? If it's not then you'd know anyways. "Dipper... I know..." He frowned. "I wish I could heal you...  But I can't... Ford won't let me..." He looked away as if he felt ashamed of himself. "Why?" I asked curiously. "Because it may make you feel worse, and mess up your body... I guess..." He placed his hands in front of  his face and stared at the floor. I couldn't see or hear it, but I knew he was sobbing uncontrollably. "Bill. Why are you crying?" I asked quietly. "I'm not." He denied. "Yes you are." I got up from the hospital bed and hugged him tightly. "What's wrong?" I rubbed his back and kissed the top of his head. "I love you Dipper, and I feel like shit cause you feel like shit." His voice quivered. "I love you too Bill, but please don't feel like shit." I removed his hand from his face and kissed him passionately. "It's not like I can help it, it's my love for you. Whenever you're upset I'm upset, whenever you're not feeling well I feel the same. I want to be here for you. To help you. To make you happy. I'm not in this for me Dipper, I'm in it for you. I'll do whatever I can whenever I can to make you the happiest man in the world. I'll never leave you and I promise I'll always love you." He said it all as if it were easy. "B-bill... You're acting so different. Are you okay? Is this a joke..?" I questioned. "No. Of course it's not a joke. I've been this way the whole time, but you weren't upset so you've never seen this side of me. I love you Dipper. I love you so much." His words. His voice. It was quiet. So calming. Hearing those words for once in my life made me realize I'm not some dumb kid. And that he actually loved me. "I love you so much too Bill." I hugged him tightly. "Bill...?" I whispered in his ear. "Yes Dipper?" He whispered back. "Let's go home..." He nodded and picked me up. And rather than teleport me back home, he carried me the whole way there.
