Illusion [bill cipher x reader]

Chapter 7

"Oh, nothing. Just taking pictures of my employees." She said in a sing-song voice.

I take a look at the Shack. There's a 'Under New Management' sign. I look at her once again, noticing she's wearing a suit and round glasses.

"Woah, no way!"

"Yes way!" I made a deal with Grunkle Stan, leaving me in charge to Mystery Shack." She said happily.

"I bet you'll win, Boss Mabel." I winked.

"By the way, who gave you that sunflower?" Mabel asked.

"No one?" I replied. Mabel immediately gasped.

"Somebody's in love! Love! Love! Love! Love! Love!"

"No! I'm not in love with my cabinmate!"

"Funny how I didn't have to say who." My cheeks burned furiously.

"Come on, let's go inside the Shack."

"No, I'm not in love with him. It's not like I really enjoy his company, being blissful and comfortable around him and low-key thinking about him every night." I mumbled. I stopped and realized what I've said and blushed once more.

We went inside the Shack as she explained more about the bet she made with Mr. Stan.

"You'll win, trust me. How can Mr. Stan can earn money by taking a vacation? Having vacation is like spending all your money in exchange for your satisfaction. S-" I didn't finished of what I'm saying when I saw packs of Nyums Jelly Beans near at the counter. I immediately put the Sunflower down the counter and gasped.

"Nyums Jelly Beans!"

"Yeah, Grunkle St-"

"Shut up and take all my money," I put the money in the jar full of money. I grabbed all the stocks of Nyums Jelly Beans and put in under the counter.

"I thought it's not available in Gravity Falls. I missed this." I hugged the pack of it.

"Woah, those are so many." Mabel looked surprised.

"These are totally my weakness. I remembered my Mom banned me from eating it because I eat these way too much. Well, I'm still banned but she's not here." I winked and chuckled at the memory I remembered.

"We're sweet toothed!" Mabel giggled.

"My Mom said that I got it from my Dad's side." It's sad I don't know what he looked like nor knew his name." Mabel looked at me sadly.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Mabel felt sorry for me.

"Don't be sorry. You didn't done anything wrong besides my Mom didn't tell me what really happened to my dad nor telling basic information about him. I don't know why but my Mom forbids me to ask questions about my Dad. She said that right time will come and my Dad, himself will explain and tell everything..." Silence filled the air.

"Back to the sweet tooth topic, I kinda hate toffee peanuts."

"That was Grunkle Stan's favorite."

"I mean, they stick to your teeth and make a mess." I grabbed two packs of Nyum Jelly Beans and I gave one to Mabel. I opened the package and took some jelly beans.

Many tourists entered the Gift Shop and I gladly assisted them. I once again used my oddly convincing powers for tourists to buy something in the shop. They gladly bought items, looking satisfied in their faces.

"Thank you! Come again." I smiled at the costumers as they head towards the exit.

"Top marks!" Mabel remarked.
