Chapter 21: Break up
Long time no see! Sorry it took me forever to update. School has gotten in the way. Stupid school. Anyways...on ward!
Dipper POV
"There is a fourth journal! Are you pulling my leg?!" I cried out.
Mabel flipped through the pages of the book. She shook her head, "Nope. I'm not pulling your leg."
I grabbed the journal from her and start to run through it, "No way...there is a fourth journal and he kept it from us!"
"That means more power." Mabel snickered.
I felt my lips curled, "Oh yes....This can't be any better."
"We can't read it all right now, Mabel."
"We take the journal."
"Wouldn't Stan notice it is gone?"
"We'll be fine. We just got to work fast."
"Ooo! I love when we work fast"
"We will rule the world shortly, dear sister."
She gave a dark chuckled, "Oh yes! I can't wait until we make Stan bleed!"
I chuckled, "Exactly, but that has to wait." I hand Mabel the journal, "You hide this in your mess-I mean room. Make sure nobody could find it. I'll give this stone thing to blondie once I get the two helpless actors downstairs."
Mabel took the journal with a smirk, "Of course, brother dear." Then we close the secret compartment and got out of the office. Mabel head towards her room and I held the stone. This was a piece of cake. Just give blondie the stone and we will be able to destroy Stan. Everything was just perfect! Nobody could ruin this!
"Oh sweetheart!"
I stopped dead in my feet.
Oh crap!
"J-Julia! What are you doing here?" I replied as I hid the stone behind my back. Julia came up to me with a wide smile. She wrapped her arms around my neck and pecked my lips, "Can't a girlfriend see her lovely boyfriend?"
"What's the real reason?" I asked.
She raised her eye brows, "Oh?"
"I know you are here for a reason...is it to see if I'm all packed up and what not?"
At this point I did just remember that Julia and I were going to run away together but something came up. I used my free hand to pull her arms away from my neck. My other hand was still behind my back, holding the stone.
"Look Julia, work came up and I can't get away or Stan would get suspicious." I replied.
"If he suspicious so what? You will be gone already."
"Well...it's not as easy as you may seem."
Julia put her hands on her hips, "Oh and how is that Mason?"
I rolled my eyes, "Why are you upset?"
"Because we had a plan, Mason, and you are backing out of it!"
"I'm not backing out of it."
"Oh yeah? Are you even ready to just leave right now?"
"Well..."
Julia threw her hands up and walked away from me, "Unbelievable!"
I sigh, "I've been busy. Stan has been keeping me at the leash and I couldn't do anything."
"Oh yeah? Why does Stan even need you, huh?"
"It's complicated."
"Complicated huh? Everything is complicated!" She shouted.
"Julia calm down. If Stan hears you screaming while he is in an interview..."
"I don't flipping care!"
I sigh as I rubbed the bridge of my nose, "Julia you got to understand...I have a job that is 24/7. I can't just walk out. There are consequences with it. Especially since my boss is Stan. If you worked for him, you would understand you can't just drop everything and leave."
"I could tell because you've been working for him forever!"
"Ever since my parents died and that wasn't even a real job...just doing a silly show."
"Then being his body guard. I swear he could have picked someone better." Julia growled.
I rolled my eyes again, "Whatever you think...it's not as easy as you think."
"What do you have behind your back?"
"What?"
Julia started to walk towards me. I started to walk away from her.
"Mason what is behind your back?!"
"Nothing of your concern!"
"I hate how you are keeping secrets from me! This isn't how girlfriend and boyfriend should be!"
"Well then maybe we shouldn't be dating."
Julia stopped dead in her tracks. Just in time too. I was up against a wall and there was no escape.
"How could you say that!?"
"Listen, Julia, you are really a...lovey girl, and it was fun having you around but...I don't think this is working out. I'm sorry."
She was just shocked. I could see tears gathering up in her eyes, and some even started to drop down her cheeks. Was that supposed to hurt me? Well it didn't. I know cruel, but that is just how I am.
"After everything we've been through! After everything we done!" She snapped.
"I'm sorry, Julia...just things changed."
"Oh so this is why you didn't propose to me after dating you for so long?! Because you were haven't second thoughts!"
"Julia, I don't have time to deal with this..."
"You mean you don't have time to deal with me but you have time to do whatever Stan tells you to do!"
"Work comes first!"
Julia gasped out, sounded like she was really hurt. To be honest it had to be work first or I'll be in deep trouble and something that Mabel and Will can't bring back.
"Are you just saying this or is there another girl out there?"
"Another girl?"
"Yes Mason!" She then gasped and covered her mouth, "You've been cheating on me!"
"I didn't cheat on you."
"I can't believe you, Mason! How could you do this?! I thought we were partners! I thought you loved me!"
I groaned. She was not going to give up on this unless I really do something Jurassic and I was getting tired of her. I felt myself snapped, "You know what? Yes I cheated on you, I mean you wouldn't. Look at you. So pathetic and weak. Why did I ever date you? All I wanted was someone who is strong and determine and that is who I cheated you with. Her name is Pacifica and she 1,000 times better than you and one hell of a kisser. Now if you excuse me, I have a job to do."
I brushed past her.
Luckily she didn't follow me. I might have crossed the line but I don't care. There are other things to worry about. I headed into the office as I knocked on the door. I poke my head into the room.
Stan looked ticked at me, "What now!?"
I could see Will was in the corner, pretending to clean or whatever he does. I looked back at Stan, "Sorry sir, but the telephone is for you."
"Tell them to call back later! Can't you see I'm in the middle of something!?"
"I know, sir, but Mr. Dallas's secretary is on the phone and she wants to talk about the appointment you had with him? She's saying that it's going to be cancelled."
Stan stood up, "What!?"
Then he faced Gideon and Cody, "I'll be right back. I have to take this call."
I opened the door all the way and stepped into the room. Stan walked right passed me. Blondie would be on the other line.
I then closed the door behind me.
"Did you get it?" Gideon asked me.
"Of course I did, idiot. I'm not stupid unlike you. Apparently you can't handle stress." I replied. I toss the stone to him. He glared at me as he caught it.
"Now let's just move with the plan." I sighed.
Cody unzipped his camera bag and pulled out duck-tape.
"M-Master?" Will questioned.
"This is all part of the plan, Will. Now get over here and get tied up with duct tape." I ordered as I walked over to Cody. I turned around and had my hands behind my back. Cody taped my hands together.
"No do you know the rest of the plan?" I asked.
"Of course." Gideon replied, already having a couple of golden objects of the room, "Do you think we can get money out of them?"
I rolled my eyes at Gideon, "No, because you'll be dead. Now there is some money in that flower pot."
"You hide money in a flower pot?"
"Stan hides money everywhere."
Gideon went over and pulled out a big stack of money, "Holy mother of chocolate heaven! There have to be a couple grand in here!"
"Oh yeah, the poor boy found some money. Yippee." I sarcastically replied.
Gideon glared at me, "Why didn't you tape down his mouth first?"
I glared back at Gideon, which my glare was obviously better. Cody then put the tape over my mouth. Then I sat down on the ground and Cody taped up my ankles. Will was also duct-tape attacked and we were back to back.
I watched as they grabbed all their things and headed out through the window.
