Normal Pov

She sensed him before she saw him. No..God please no.. "Shy?" Shy squeezed her eyes shut, now frozen in place. How could i not have noticed how much they looked alike. Shyla thought to herself. The woman that hired her was brunette with blue eyes to match her son's. I could take care of it dear. A voice said in her head, one that sounded as if it had devious intention. N-no i can do this. Shyla replied back and opened her eyes turning her head to face the boy who had called her. The woman beside her turned as well. "Oh Dipper you're home ,good, you can finish showing the new maid around." Dipper looked over at his mother then back at the girl. "Maid?" he questioned his tone unreadable to the now trembling girl. I-i cant. "M-may i be excused please?" She asked her voice hitched slightly in her throat. "Of course my dear," Shyla rushed off to the nearest bathroom before the woman had a chance to finish. "Shy girl that one."

Dipper nodded in agreement and looked into the direction Shy had ran then back at his mother. "Alright Dipper, i have to get to work," She kissed his head and headed for the door. "If you need anything ask the maid." Dipper nodded and watched as his mother left, then went to find Shy. "Shy?" He called out once he noticed that she was no longer in the bathroom. He walked around slowly, slightly uneasy about being left alone with her. "Shyla? Where are you?" He heard a faint giggle and followed it to the kitchen, where he saw her standing over the sink holding a large knife. "Did you need something Dipper?" She sounded different, less shy and more...creepy. "N-no, i just um..." Dipper couldn't finish his sentence, for Shy had turned around and was now looking at him. She had removed her headband, so that now a bang covered her eyes.

"You seem nervous." Dipper gulped slightly as she walked towards him. Her voice was calm, leaving him slightly entranced. "Is there anything else i need to clean? The bathroom and kitchen are done, your mother told me to ask you about anything else. "I uh...think the u-upstairs guest room d-does." Dipper stuttered. Shy nodded and left the kitchen, heading upstairs. Dipper let out a breath he didn't know he had been holding. "Creepy.." he muttered to himself,grabbing a bottled water out the fridge and heading to his room. He quietly made his way passed the room Shy was in, then stopped. She was singing. He quietly moved over to the door, which was slightly ajar and looked inside. His heart dropped at the sight. Shy was dancing, her hips swaying to the music that only she could hear. Her voice glued him into place as she moved around the room singing softly.

My heart is racing
My skin is burnin' up
Hands are shakin'
But still I can't get enough
It's rushing through me
Like fire in my veins
Sweet veins

Shy threw her head back as she spun around and laughed, clearly aware of the male at the door. Her hair had moved away from her face to reveal a flash of purple eyes and a deadly smirk. She blew a kiss at him and turned back around, continuing her singing and cleaning. Dipper gulped and moved away from the door, quickly making his way to his bedroom. That did not just happen. He thought and downed his bottle of water. He leaned his head against the wall and closed his eyes, listening to Shy's voice.


"Dipper?"

Dipper groaned at the sound of his name. How long was i asleep? "Dipper?" the voice came again, soft and familiar. Opening his eyes Dipper looked up to see Shy. Her hair was securely tucked behind her headband and and her bright golden eyes stared down at him in curiosity. "It was a dream?" He asked himself. "Was what a dream?" Shy asked tilting her head to the side. "N-nothing, just a weird dream is all." Shy nodded and picked up the empty water bottle that had fallen off of Dipper's bed and turned to leave the room. "Oh yea, dinner is ready." as if on cue Dipper's stomach growled, causing Shy to giggle, before heading down stairs. Okay, i know that wasn't a dream..... what was that.... Alot of questions were running through Dipper's mind as went back downstairs and into the kitchen for dinner.
