Dipper woke up with a yawn. He remembered last night and everything he told Bill. 'should I really have told him all that?' Dipper wondered getting up for the day. He had a couple of bruises on his arm, which is also one of the reasons he wore hoodies. He pulled up his pants and headed for the door. As he walked to the kitchen he heard two voices talking, it was Mabel and Ford. Yesterday, before Bill had appeared, Dipper and Mabel had told Ford about the weird dreams and such. Ford looked over at Dipper once he arrived in the kitchen. "Any unusual dreams Dipper?" Ford asked. "No actually" Dipper said grabbing something to drink from the fridge. "I slept pretty well" He added. "Hmmm...Mabel said she didn't  have any strange dream either" Ford explained. "Maybe he's trying to trick us into thinking he was never really here?" Mabel suggested. "It's to late for that, I've already picked up demonic energy from both of your rooms" Ford enounced. "He already knows we know he's here" He added.

 Ford looked at Dipper for a moment, then spoke. "Are you sure you haven't heard or seen anything Dipper?" Ford asked. "Positive, why do you ask?" Dipper spoke. "I just found stronger and more fresh energy radiating from your room" Ford answered. He knew Dipper was lying to him, but he didn't know to what extent. 'Maybe they talked, maybe they didn't. Maybe he messed with Dipper's head, or maybe he didn't' Ford thought. "Well I'm going to the woods, bye" Dipper stated quickly, was if he was uncomfortable and needed to leave as soon as possible. 

Dipper sat down under a big oak tree. He didn't know what to do. Ford knew he was lying about have seeing Bill and Dipper got hit at home if he ever told a lie and his dad found out. 'But it's like Ford would ever hit me' he thought, scared and relived at the same time. 'right?..' he added to his train of thought. "Hey Pinetree" Bill said softly. "You seem troubled. What's wrong?" He asked. "Ford knows you were in my room and he knows I know you were there" Dipper sated. Bill sat down next to Dipper and responded with "So what if Ford knows I talked to you?". "Well... I said I didn't talk to you" Dipper spoke in a shaky voice. "And?" Bill protested. "I told a lie and when I tell lies at home-" Bill cut Dipper off before he could finish. "You're not at home though Pinetree. You're in Gravity Falls. Ford would never hurt you. Especially not for something like talking to your enemy". "Are you sure" Dipper's eyes were full of uncertainty. "I'm positive" Bill reassured.

Bill and Dipper spent the rest of the day talking and telling bad jokes. Anytime Dipper was hungry Bill would just snap his fingers and something tasty would appear. Same thing with drinks. The day ended with Bill making sure Dipper made it home safe by watching him walk back home and looking for danger. Bill honestly knew that Ford would sense all the evil energy Bill had accidentally left on Dipper. 'Don't be to mad sixer' Bill thought. He watched Dipper walk into the Mystery Shack and proceeded back to the woods. "I'll see you tomorrow Pinetree" Bill said in a whisper. And with that Bill was gone.
