Mabel's POV

I said goodbye to Dipper and Ford and the other then me and Bill left. We were walking in the woods, and I have to admit it was pretty awkward. After all, I did pretty much have a serious anxiety attack. He scratched the back of his head. He opened his mouth, stuttered and closed it again, looking away.

It was cloudy and judging by the wet grass and Trees, it had rained earlier. Bill was wet too. His sparkling golden hair was wet with little rain drops. He looked flustered and had blush on his face. He looked cute.

Suddenly he spoke up.

"Hey. Look, I know it's my fault you had that anxiety attack. I shouldn't have been so hard on you. You didn't deserve it. I'm sorry."

He looked down at the ground and back at me expecting an answer. I giggled and then started laughing. He looked surprised then blushed super deep red.

"I'm serious!" He shouted. He was such a tsundere.

"I know. It wasn't your fault. It was all that pressure and stress I had from thinking it was all my fault that Weirdmaggedon had come to be. Anyways, I forgive you."

"Really?"

I nodded. Somehow our hands moved closer and closer together until they were entwined. The sun just peeked out of the clouds for a couple seconds. But it sounds like something straight out of a movie. But, hey, maybe it was...

[That night]

I was trying to sleep but couldn't. I was just too awake. I heard a knock at the door. There weren't many options as to who this could be, so I got up, and answered the door.

It was Bill. Before he could say anything,

"Let me guess. You tried to look at my dreams and you saw nothing, so you came here to check on me."

He smirked. "Now look who's reading minds."

"Haha" I laughed sarcastically.

"If you can't sleep, I have something that might help."

"Oh?"

"Yeah"

"Ok. What is it? Are you gonna read me a bedtime story?"

He swung me around and then next thing I knew our faces were inches apart his hand on my waist, mine on his shoulders and his other hand on the back of Head.

"Nope." He grinned. In a puff of smoke we disappeared from the fearamide and the next thing I knew, I was surrounded by stars glimmering in the night sky. I quickly pulled away from Bill's grasp and looked around. We were on a cloud really high up from the sky.

I sat down with Bill.

"Isnt the sky beautiful?"

"Yeah."

"Bill, why do you care so much about me now. If this incident would have happened a week ago, you wouldn't care. So, why do you care now?"

"To be honest, I don't know. But I feel like something good is about to happen"

I giggled and leaned on his shoulder as I listened to him sing a song quietly.

"Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, no more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars

Yeah, we'll be counting stars

I see this life like a swinging vine
Swing my heart across the line
And my face is flashing signs
Seek it out and ye shall find

Old, but I'm not that old
Young, but I'm not that bold
And I don't think the world is sold
On just doing what we're told

I feel something so, but right doing the wrong thing
And I feel something so wrong, but doing the right thing
I could lie, could lie, could lie
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, no more counting dollars, we'll be

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, no more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars

I feel the love, and I feel it burn
Down this river, every turn
Hope is a four-letter word
Make that money, watch it burn

Old, but I'm not that old
Young, but I'm not that bold
And I don't think the world is sold
On just doing what we're told

And I feel something so wrong, but doing the right thing
I could lie, could lie, could lie
Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, no more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, no more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars

Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned

Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned

Everything that kills me makes me feel alive

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, no more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, no more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars

Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned

Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned."

Bill's POV

I finished the song and before I knew it, SS was.fast asleep. I smiled and chuckled. She was so cute when she slept. I pet her head gently and whispered

"Good night, shooting star."
