The Love of a Demon [BillDip]

Chapter 9

Dipper P.O.V

I walk away from Bill rather quickly. I am not too fond of him and the fact that his "costume" is a clone of me is quite mocking. This Summerween has not been the best, but it is not over yet. Perhaps things will get better.

I am now deep into the forest. No one is this far in, especially at night. It's dangerous. Pretty much everyone avoids the woods at night.

I sit down near the edge of a cliff. The view is beautiful and the moon shines brightly with the stars. It's a cool night and feels almost perfect.

I take off the fake face pieces for my costume because they are rather uncomfortable. And while I enjoy the game my costume is from I would rather look like myself. There is also no point in being dressed up when no one's around.

'This night would feel better if I wasn't spending it alone. Maybe I'm finally becoming lonely. I haven't really ever been attracted to anyone before, besides Wendy, but perhaps it's time I finally start to consider being in a relationship with someone. I honestly don't care about that person's gender at this point. As long as I love them and they love me everything will be fine.'

I sigh and look over the edge. "I wish," I whisper softly to myself.

Suddenly someone has me by the throat, making me gasp for air. My feet do not touch the ground and I struggle in their grasp. I don't know what's happening, but I am scared.

A wicked voice asks, "What is it that you wish for, child?"

The tone is hushed and I'm not sure whether this is a man or a woman. The only real thing I'm wishing for at the moment is to have my feet on the ground, but I'm sure that's not what they want to hear.

"I," I pause for a moment, "I wish to have someone to love who will love me back."

The voice lets out a wicked laugh. "Your wish will be granted. You're going to fall in love with the next person you see."

All of the sudden I feel two sharp teeth dig into my neck. I cry out in pain and struggle, but there is no one around to hear me. I am going to be left here to die.

I struggle against whatever is biting me but I'm simply not strong enough. I feel as though I'm actually losing strength. I realize that this might be it. The only good thing about this would be dying on Summerween.

I am about to give up when someone snatches this stranger off of me. I rub my neck, feeling two distinct holes. Those will be pretty difficult to play off. I won't be able to use a special effects makeup excuse forever.

After a few minutes of fighting the thing that attacked me is thrown off the cliff. I am surprised and relieved, but mostly relieved.

I look up to see my savior and I am instantly shocked. "Bill?"
