Side Effects Of Insanity

Our lips are sealed

Dippers pov
My life broke down in front of me as the smoke began to rise. It felt like the world was closing around me, and darkness began to consume me.
_ Are you ok?
- Don't even speak to me
_ I-I'll explain!
- Oh? You decide to talk now? (I know dipper seems extremely out of character, but that's just part of Bill attached to him. I'll explain eventually.)
_Just don't tell anyone, or this timeline is done for.
- Promise.
Two small yellow dots appeared from the side of the shack. They got brighter until they showed the outline of a car behind them. Gabe stepped out and walked to the other side of the car to let Mabel out.
_ We speak later
Dipper fell to the ground limp as Bill shoved control over to him. He got up and brushed the gravel off his face just in time for Mabel to run up to him and grab him into a death grip- I mean hug. "Bro-bro! What are you doing up? I thought you would be knocked out after..." She leaned in close like we were sharing a secret. "You know what." She then burst out laughing and lightly punched me on the shoulder. I chuckle lightly. "Well, I got a little bit of rest, then I woke up really thirst for some reason." Mabel began walking into the shack. "Come on inside, tell me what you're doing up." I shrug off the fact I just told her and walk inside. We sit down on the floor and grab some popcorn, turn on the tv and sit in silence. She turns towards me and looks me dead in the face. "I want to know why and how Bill possessed you." I'm not sure I can say I didn't expect it, but none the less, it surprised me. "I-I made a deal with him. I wanted to get the password to the laptop so badly and was angry you were still obsessing over Gabe. Then Bill appeared and said he could help. He asked for a puppet, and I thought he meant one of your puppets. I didn't want to because you worked hard on them, but he convicted me. Then..." Mabel put her hand on my shoulder. "Don't you worry bro, I promise I'll help you now that the puppet show is over." Mabel got up and switches off the tv, witch was currently on an ad for the new tiger fist episode, then offered me her hand. "Mabel, the laptop got destroyed. When Bill posses me, he crushed it."
_If you saw what was on that laptop, you wouldn't think the author was that great anymore.
- Hush right now please.
"Dipper, hey. Dippin sauce. You alive in there?" Mabel was snapping her fingers in front of me. "Huh?" She smiled slightly. "You were getting sucked into your thoughts again. Anyway, you said that the laptop was gone, so I asked if you wanted to try to crack more codes in the journal, but you didn't answer." I couldn't look Mabel in the eyes. "Yeah, sure." I casually scratch the back of my neck.
- Can I please tell her?
_ Do you know how she would react?
- She would flip out a little, then go back to being Mabel
_ Wow. Do you even know your sister?
- Of course I do!
_ Well, from what I can remember, she will withdraw from you and will no longer be happy and bubbly around you, because she thinks I'm always watching.
- Oh...
"Alright bro, you're definitely tired, you keep leaving me." Mabel snapped me out of my thoughts and pulled me up the stairs. She giggled a little at the way I never change into PJs, and I couldn't help but smile. If what Bill said was true, I would hate to loose this Mabel. Although I would have to tell her eventually, now was not the time. Soon it was just me and Bill, he was in control, and I was taking a much needed rest.
