Complicated

Chapter 7: Jealousy (Part 2)

Dipper's POV

Candy.

She knew we were here.

The whole time!

I wanted to punch her so bad...so I did. I hit her right in the nose.

"AHHHH!" She screamed in pain.

"Just leave us alone!" Pacifica demanded.

"I thought we were friends," Mabel sadly remarked.

"Why can't you just leave my family and friends out of this?" I asked, "It's me you want."

"Dipper-" Pacifica started.

"No, he's right," Candy smirked. "But they are the ones standing in the way of our love"

"Okay, Candy, I don't know what has gotten into you. I mean, you were perfectly fine just a few days ago," Grenda stated.

"That's none of your business!" She snarled, "What I do one my own time is none of you concern."

"Obviously it is," I added, gesturing towards the shrine behind me.

"Oh, Dipper, too curious for your own good," Candy claimed.

"Candy, back away from the door," I warned, "Or we'll-"

"You'll what?" She interrupted, "Without this, you're nothing," She spat while holding up the journal.

"The journal! Wait, how did you..." I started. I searched my sweatshirt, only to find it empty.

"Give it back! It's not yours," Pacifica fought.

I reached for it, only for Candy to stop me and show me a page in it.

"Ah ah ah, Dipper. Take one more step and I won't hesitate to summon him," Candy threatened.

"Bill," We all mumbled at the same time.

"Candy, stop before you do something you'll regret," I calmly suggested.

"No. Bill Cipher has been my only friend. He can see my potential," she argued.

"He's tricking you!" Pacifica yelled.

"Don't fall for his games and flattery!" Mabel cried, "He's just using you!"

"He believes in me!" She growled.

"Just give me back the journal," I was really annoyed at this point.

"No! Bill needs this. He said that if I get it, he'll give me the one thing I want most in the world!" She screamed, "And that's you, Dipper."

I was fed up. If I hit her, she wouldn't have enough time to summon Bill. So, I lunged at her. After I did, the others caught on to my plan and helped out. Though, she's a lot stronger than I thought.

"Dipper! I got it! I got the journal!" Pacifica cheered.

"Good! Now leave! And bring Mabel and Grenda with you. I'll take care of Candy," I commanded.

"What? No! I'm not leaving you again. Not like when that 'thing' attacked us!" She objected.

"C'mon, Pacifica, you don't have much time!" I hollered.

"I don't care. We'll get through this together! I trusted you, why can't you trust me?" She asked.

At first I hesitated. "...Fine, I trust you. Mabel, take the journal and go back to the Shack with Grenda."

Pacifica passed her the journal and helped me attack Candy.

Candy went straight for Pacifica. She punched her right in the eye.

"Pacifica!" I cried. Candy took this as a chance to hit me. We were both on the ground at this point. I held her hand and she held it back, just a little tighter.

"Finally," Candy proudly boasted. "I have you right where I want y-" she was cut off by someone hitting her in the head and knocking her out.

"Wendy?" Pacifica and I asked at the same time.

"Woah, that was a close one," Wendy chuckled.

"You saved us!" Pacifica cheered. She ran up and gave Wendy a big hug. I'm glad they're finally getting along.

"How did you know that we were here?" I asked.

"Well, I went to the Shack and it seemed too quiet. So, I asked Stan where you were and he pointed to the direction of Candy's house. On my way over, I bumped into Mabel and Grenda and they told me what happened. I figured you two might be in trouble so I came over as fast as I could," Wendy explained.

"Thanks. We would have been in big trouble if you didn't show up," I thanked.

We made our way back to the Mystery Shack and Mabel gave me back the journal. I went up to the attic with Pacifica.

"I'm...sorry," I apologized to Pacifica.

"For what?" She asked.

"For not trusting you," I confessed.

"Oh, that's ok. I didn't trust you at first either. And plus, you have had some problems with trust in the past, so I don't blame you."

"You sure you're not mad?"

"Of course I'm not mad!" She gave me a playful push. "Hug?"

"Hug." We hugged it out and it made my life feel complete. We shared a kiss and made our way downstairs. A movie was on and Mabel was in the kitchen making popcorn. Wendy and Grenda were were on the floor watching it. I shared Grunkle Stan's chair with Pacifica.

"These movies are the worst," Wendy groaned.

"You can say that again," I sighed.

"Are you kidding! I love this movie!" Mabel shrieked.

"Oh, Mabel, I don't think I'll ever understand you," Pacifica chuckled.

"Try living with her for 16 years," I stated and we all laughed.

"Oh man, it's getting late. I better head home before my dad freaks out," Wendy huffed.

"Yeah, me too," Grenda added.

"Okay, bye guys," Mabel waved.

"Bye!" They called.

"We should probably get to bed," I suggested. We went up and said our goodnights. Mabel and Pacifica fell asleep, but I didn't.

I've been having these weird dreams whenever I fall asleep.

Like I predicted, I fell asleep and had another strange dream. I woke up with beads of sweat dripping down my face. I checked the time and saw that it was 6:00. Might as well stay awake.

These dreams were even weirder because I could never remember what they were about. I'd say that they've been going on for a week now, but I have yet to tell Mabel or Pacifica. I feel bad keeping it from them, but what am I supposed to say?

'I had a dream but I don't know what it was about?'

I don't know why, but something big is coming. I can tell.
