Bill's New Puppet~

Part 9

Alex's POV
I managed to get away from that awkward situation, I finally met Pinetree and Six fingers. Dad told me about them in the other dimension.. I miss him! But Faith is cool! I enter Lazy Susan's Diner and sat at a booth, yawning a little, a few minutes later Faith walks in and groans, I wave
"Mystery girl, come sit!" I call, smiling happily as she walks over
"Mystery girl? Really?" She giggled and sat opposite me
"Well, yeah, I like nicknaming people so I need.to figure out a proper nickname for you!" I laugh "allow me to buy you food?" I ask
"Heh, couldn't let you do that playboy!" She giggled and nudges me from across the table
"Aww fine then, you seem stubborn, huh?" I guess
"Heh, I get it from my mother, its a family trait. I look more like dad then mom though, I got his hair and height but I got my mothers strength and most of her personality" she trails off, I chuckle and listen "oh, sorry! I'm rambling" she mumbled
"It's fine Faith, now order!" I laugh as she begins ordering
"Can I have a uhm... spaghetti and meatballs with extra meatballs and mushrooms please?" She asks, looking embarrassed.
"Of course, that'll be $10" Lazy Susan told her, she gulps
"I- I uh..." She stutters, I quickly hand her some money
"There" I say simply and she walks away "seems I am paying" I joke
"Hey! That's not fair" she sticks her tongue out, she yawns and begins eating
"True... you seem tired, why?" I ask, then immediately regret it... I'm so dumb! I think to myself
"Heh, well... I have been running around a lot" she shrugs.

Dipper's POV
I growl at how Faith snuck out
"I can't believe her!" I growl aloud
"Hey, calm down Dipper!" Ford told me, I look at him "why didn't you tell me you had a daughter...? She looks like you" he smiles his smile, old but still warm
"Well, I kinda wanted her to keep out of the weirdness of gravity falls.. Clearly didn't work though, she's obsessed with the supernatural" I sigh, looking up at my Gruncle
"Heh, reminds me of a certain 12 year old with a wicked birthmark" he chuckled as he tips my hat down a little, I chuckle
"I guess so Great Uncle Ford" I put my hat right again, it was a little worn from old age but still in good condition
"After this incident, she's gonna be even more curious and want to know more" he laughs, this was funny to him "also, what's the deal with her eyes...?" He added
"O-oh well, uh, she was kinda born with it, like you and your extra finger, she tries to hide it but usually fails. Like today many times..." I sigh sadly
"Heh, seems it runs in the family or is just a rare family gene, she's special" Ford smiled "invite her to the shack sometime, I'd love to get to know my great great niece, wow I'm old" he said happily, pride in his voice.
