Pacifica pov.
2:00pm.. i stared at the floor as i  lay sideways on my bed, my right hand wrapped up with white bandages.listening to the different sounds that can be heard. Air conditioned, Cars passing,people walking and the ray of sunshine passing through my window giving my room a natural filter. I reach for my phone that is on my mini table beside my bed. I took a deep breath.

They didn't even try to call me...

And here i'am trying to fantasize on having a caring and loving parents.
I turned my body facing the ceiling as my arms spreads out, holding my phone on my left hand. And here it comes again, something i can't control when i'm alone.

My emotions, tears falling, overthinking, blaming myself being not good enough.

Gripping my phone tightly as i felt weak. I felt disgusted at myself.

"Since when did pacifica Northwest became this weak"

I covered my eyes with my bandage hand, I squint at the sudden pain from my injured hand.*sigh deeply* I can't sleep at night cause i'm afraid that the nightmares will come back, and there are times where i kinda start hallucinating. I'm mad at myself.

I wiped my tears off my face.

Okay! You know what?! I need to get outside to distract myself.

I grabbed my phone, put my shoes on and headed outside. I don't want to entertain this stupid emotions, better go somewhere to calm me down.

Great now i'm lost somewhere in the forest. I was supposed to be at the log where I always go, but nooo my stupid self keep walking,to I don't know where in the universe

I sighed deeply. I don't recognized this part of the forest. I should find someone who can help me get back. But which direction should I go.

"Alright! Pacifica don't worry There's always hope in everything, we can get help in no time let's get going" i said cheerfully to myself. I was about to continue my walk when a thought of realization hit me-

Since when did i become that optimistic?

Oh, whatever..it's probably just to make myself feel better.

30 minutes later

"AAAAAAAHHH!!! I'm so tired!" I scream all of my exhaustion, I've been walking for like half an hour and i still can't find anyone to help me.

I open my eyes. And saw that i was out of the forest but, i was in a place filled with flowers on the ground, it's peaceful here, i felt bad for screaming in this place. The sky is so clear and the wind breeze is just perfect. I closed my eyes for a bit.

This place is so breathtaking.

"Pacifica?"

And of course someone had to ruined the moment. Wait, Why does that voice sounds familiar. I look around to see who was calling me and spotted him in the middle  sitting on the ground with all the flowers around him.

"Why are you here?" We both said at the same time.

Silence......

He scratched his neck awkwardly and glanced down. I sigh. As I walked and sat beside him, scooth my knees closer and hugged it, as i rest my chin on my knees. Dang is he not gonna start talking. Fine i'll start.

"I gotten myself lost okay, i was just planning on going to the log but—— whatever, i was looking for someone to help me lead the way or something to get me out"  i was moving my hand as i was explaining and mind you, i blame myself for forgetting that i have an injured hand, but of course I played it cool.

I looked at him."Yeah, i'll help you " he said.

Dipper pov.
"Really!? Aweee thank you so much dip, i really appreciate it" Pacifica said cheerfully. Is she playing with me or just being sarcastic.

She fake cough. And sat comfortably on the ground.

"So, dipper why are you here, it's not like I want to know." she picked up a flower and examined it.

I sigh. "I come here when i have so much in my mind or like i just need a peaceful environment to think"

Not really going into detail on what happened, back in the shack with my sudden burst and about the scenario with wendy.

I looked at Pacifica and she was starring at me, i looked down trying to avoid the gaze and noticed something wrapped around her right hand.

"Hey, paz how's your hand?" I looked at her concern

"Oh this?-ouch-it will heal eventually, no big deal" she placed her hand back down.

I looked down, not knowing what to do or say. The wind passed by giving it a cool and relaxing feeling.

"Mabel was right you are awkward around girls hahahahahah" she was laughing,how many things did mabel told her and when. *sigh* i look at her as she laughed, it's the first time seeing her laugh. and funny enough i got this feeling to just listen to her laugh, weird right? Not until-

"Oh? You think it's funny northwest"  I bluntly say.

Oh, there it is again! Why do i have to ruin the moment again.. and the worst thing i'm being rude unintentionally.

She rolled her eyes at me. Annoyed, "There's nothing wrong with being awkward, jeez, sorry if I offended you"

I wave my hand signaling 'that's not it' "ahh, no sorry for saying that bluntly I don't know what i just said and No it didn't offend me, well it's the truth i do get awkward sometimes, i just don't know why, conversations are-"

And there it was again, the sound of laughter coming from Pacifica, I don't know if she's playing with me or she just find me funny, either way i like hearing her laughing and seeing her this happy. And when she notices, she immediately fake coughs to stop herself.

Silence. It wasn't that uncomfortable. Neither of us said anything, we just admired the things that this place has, beautiful flowers, clear sky, perfect weather, butterflies flying. I glanced at her and thought-

It's the second time i'm alone with her, the first was when we were like twelve catching a ghost together and it was the very first time i saw a different side of her. And now, i'm alone with her in this lovely place.

"Didn't someone tell you that staring at someone is creepy" Pacifica said snapping me out of my thoughts.

*sigh* "i just thought about something"

"Tssssk whatever" she said turning her gaze looking at the flower on the ground,

Third person pov.
Dipper and Pacifica talked about certain things not knowing the time pass. There was also times where Pacifica would be laughing at dipper remarks. Dipper would sometimes say something different which is so unlike him. But, it didn't really affect her that much, sure she gets annoyed at his sentence but she's use to it.And in return she fires back with some sarcastic remarks at dipper.

"Jeez, such a dork" Pacifica thought.

Dipper kinda noticed something in Pacifica was a bit odd, a moment she would be talkative which is weird and a moment where she would get annoyed and sarcastic like the typical Pacifica.

"I don't remember her being this energetic, it's weird" dipper thought.

The sun was almost setting, taking this as a sign to get home. Dipper help Pacifica the way back to the log. They said their goodbyes.

Dipper finally calmed down his mind and apologize to wendy when he  saw her talking to mabel sitting on the deck outside the door.As for Pacifica, she came home with a smile on her face and felt relaxed as she crashed on her sofa.
