Dipper POV
We arrive at the shack around midnight. I'm so tired that I just flop into bed. I can't comprehend all that's happened tonight. It's giving me a headache.
What do I do? If Wendy saw me tonight, then how do I explain what I was doing? If I say I was turning down some girl it wouldn't be the truth. She wasn't 'some girl' because I kind of liked her.
"Dipper?" Mabel asks from her bed, looking over at me.
I look up at her, escaping my thoughts. "Yeah?" I reply
"What are you do- wait! Are you crying?" She asks
I hadn't realized it, but I was crying. I felt the tears down my cheeks.
"Oh wow. Yea I guess so. I just don't know what to do. All of this dating drama is mixing with my head. I don't know how to handle it." I say
"I can help if you want me to." Mabel replies. I decide to let her.
"Okay, what should I do?" I ask
"Tomorrow, see if Wendy wants to hang out. I'm pretty sure that, as soon as you see her, you'll feel better."
"And if she asks about the hug? Remember, I think I saw her behind a tree tonight." I say
"If she asks about it then just explain what you said to me, just without the part about you kinda liking Pacifica back." Mabel replies
"Okay, probably a good idea. I'll just meet her downstairs when she comes into work tomorrow." I decide "Thanks, Mabel."
"Anytime, Broseph." She replies "Good night!"
And with that, I was off to sleep.
