Trust me 'Older Dipper x Reader'

Chapter 11||Pool Day?

Dipper's POV:

  There was something definitely bothering her. As the night went on, (Y/n) kept looking around and biting her nails. She seemed more off edge, more than when Bill was around. Earlier when I approached her about her dream, she made it seem like it was just about the guys hassling her. But there has to be more to it. Right?

   After she reassured that she was fine, we went back to the table and started a new game of go fish. Mabel won the first round, and we're in the middle of the second round. "Hm. Dipper, got any 3's?" I heard Wendy call from across the table, snapping me away from my thoughts. "Yes, here you go." I said pretending to be disappointed. I slid my card over to her, and she swiftly picked it up and set it down with her other card.

   Before I knew it, everyone was leaving. Mabel was in her bed already probably on her phone, meanwhile I was brushing my teeth. I began thinking over the night, seeing if anything stood out to why (Y/n) started acting different. She started acting weird when we started go fish, when she told us she didn't feel good. Which lead to her having a nightmare, apparently about being hassled. Then for the rest of the night she acted a lot differently than she was before.

   I finished up in the bathroom and climbed into my bed. I pulled out a book and let out a small sigh. "What's up?" I heard Mabel say from across the room. I rubbed my eye before putting my book back where I got it. "I don't know. I feel like (Y/n) isn't telling us something." I looked over at Mabel to see her propped up by her arm, thinking about what I had just said. "I think we shouldn't bug her about it right now, as it could be been about Bill."

   After that, I told her a small goodnight. She did the same before saying, "We're gonna go to the pool tomorrow. I'm gonna invite (Y/n), hopefully that makes her forget all this Bill stuff." I let out a small sigh once more and put out my lamp. Mabel quickly followed suit, as she let out a yawn.

(Y/n)'s POV:

   After I had woken up from my weird dream, everything was a blur. The only thing I really could remember was talking to Dipper about my dream and leaving the party. The very last thing I remember from that night would be me walking up to my room and falling asleep in my bed. Or what I thought was my bed.

   The next morning I had woken up in my bathtub. How? No clue... At all. I groggily stepped out of my bathtub and stretched out my arms. They no longer had the stinging pain from the cuts I received a couple days ago. I quickly went to my bed stand to find my phone wasn't there, but was on the floor near it. I picked it up and saw I barely had battery left. "Shit." Was my drink drugged or something last night..?

   I plugged in my phone and saw I had a text from Mabel stating: Hey, Dip and I are going to the pool later on today and if you wanna join, lmk! "Hm, a pool? Sounds like fun." I quickly texted her letting her know I'd be joining them, and asking what time we'd meet up. Once I did that, I got a quick shower and brushed my teeth.

   I went downstairs to join my family for lunch. "Hey, a little heads up, I'll be going to the pool in about 30 minutes with some friends." I said while taking a bite of a french fry. The only person here was my mother, as my Dad was out at his new job and Amber was out with her friends. 
"Okay. You have fun and don't get in trouble." I laughed quietly and nodded my head.

   After I ate, I went to my room. I grabbed a (any color) bathing suit and changed into it. I quickly threw a plain light blue tee shirt and grey athletic shorts. I grabbed my pool bag that contained very few things and made my way downstairs. I slid on my flip-flops as Mabel had texted me that they left the shack a couple minutes ago.

   Soon enough, our doorbell rung. I sprung up out of my chair and opened the door. "You ready?" Mabel said happily. I nodded and picked up my bag. "Mom I'm leaving now! Be back later." After I said that, I closed the door behind me and we made our way to their car. I slid back into the back while Mabel went to the passenger seat.

   "I'm gonna play some music." Mabel announced, sounding bored after Dipper drove for 3 minutes. She pulled out her phone and scrolled up quickly before selecting a song. And that song was Goodnight and Go by Ariana Grande. "I didn't know you liked her." I said  while leaning on the center console. (a center console is the thing in between the driver and passenger seat, for all you uneducated carjacks. Also if you for some reason don't like Ari then change it to ur fav artist)

   The whole way to the pool, Mabel was blaring Ariana Grande music which annoyed Dipper. I mouthed the words, meanwhile Mabel was out there singing her heart out. Once Dipper pulled into a parking spot, he turned the music down before saying, "Thank god. Couldn't have gotten here faster." I laughed at his remark before making my way out of the car.

   Dipper payed for 3 tickets while Mabel and I made our way to the locker room. I got a larger locker, so we could share. She, of course, took the top as she was taller than me. I placed my bag at the bottom of the locker and took my shirt and shorts off, exposing my bathing suit. Mabel did the same after checking her phone.

   "Ooh, I really like your bathing suit!" I gave her a small smile and thanked her. "I like yours as well." I said, so I didn't sound rude. I grabbed a towel, rubber band, and sunscreen from my bag before we left the locker room. 

   Mabel noticed Dipper before I had, and we made our way over to him. He had got us three chairs, and was sitting on one of them. "I heard Wendy got her job back here." Mabel said once we got to the chairs. "Yeah. She said the manager is letting her work part time, so she can still work at the Shack." I placed my towel down, along with the other items, on one of the chairs. 

   We chatted for a while, as Mabel and I wanted to tan for a little. Of course, we'd put sunscreen on before coming out of the locker rooms. I was laid facing towards the floor on my towel when I heard a girl say, "Man. Why'd I always have to run into the Pines family." I lifted my head up to see a blond haired girl with a teal bikini standing by the twins.
