Silent: Bill x reader x Dipper

Chapter Ten: Gasoline

Previously...

    He rolled his eyes and complained, "You're so lazy! and you're just making up excuses for me to stay!"

I smirked. Maybe I am...so?

"Well if I stay in Gravity Falls, you'll need to tell me a secret."

What kind of secret?

"I want to know..."

Now...

     "I want to know why you won't talk now."

Really? That's it? That's not really that big a secret. It's not a secret at all.

"Well, I guess I could ask if you love me more than Dipper..."

I shuddered. No, I'll talk about why I don't want to talk.

"That made plenty of sense."

     I don't want to talk because I still feel the guilt, especially after seeing my dad.

     "See? I told you that you'd regret seeing him."

     It's all my fault that he is-was-like that.

     He sighed. "No, it's not your fault. It's mine."

     No arguing with that logic.

     "Aren't you just a ray of sunshine."

     I'm just saying, you kind of killed him and all, so it's YOUR fault!

     "Which means you can talk. No guilt for you."

     But I should've tried to stop you.

     "And gotten yourself killed as well? It's not like I cared about you back then or anything."

     Well, when you put it that way...

      "And since you're not going to talk, why don't you tell me who you prefer?"

      "No!" I shouted.

      "That's what I thought. I know you like me better, anyway."

I blinked and everything was back to normal. Dipper was there next to me, like we had been before.

"Then there's what?" Dipper asked. "You didn't finish your sentence."

"What? I forgot what I was saying, sorry."

"So...us?" Dipper said.

I shrugged. "I like you, but I like someone else, too. I need some time to decide."

He nodded. "That's cool. Take your time."

      I smiled. "Thanks." I kissed him on the cheek and went back home.

     "How was your day?" Mom asked.
