Dipper P.O.V

I only become more nervous as Bill and I get closer to the Mystery Shack. My uncles will never understand our relationship. They will both try to kill him.

Bill sets me on my feet as we reach the edge of the forest. I hold his hand rather tightly as we continue to walk.

"Don't be nervous, Pine Tree," he says with a calm tone.

I nod and bite my lip, though what Bill has just asked of me is impossible. If Mable has informed our uncles of Bill then there is no way that I can remain calm.

I instruct Bill to remain outside while I find out exactly what my uncles know. If they saw him right away they wouldn't be willing to listen.

The front door is unlocked so I go ahead and let myself inside. To my surprise, Bill, Ford, and Mabel are sitting in the living room. None of them speak until I come into full view.

"What's going on?" I ask softly, leaning against the wall.

Mabel looks up at me with an icy glare. She knows that I am mentally panicking. I do not do well in high-stress situations.

"Dipper," Ford says while standing up, "please, tell us that Mabel is wrong."

Obviously, Mabel broke her promise and informed uncle Stan and Ford about my relationship with Bill. I thought I could trust her, but apparently, I was wrong.

I take a deep breath to calm myself. I don't want to seem scared about talking about it because it might make them think that Bill has his way with me without my consent.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, but it's true," I tell him, standing up straighter to seem more confident.

Ford and Stan both have shock written all over their faces. It's obvious that they thought Mabel was lying. Neither of them ever expected that I would be with Bill.

"Dipper, are you insane!?" Stan nearly yells, standing from his chair.

I take a step back to gain a bit of distance from three people who could definitely be capable of harming me.

"I'm not insane," I snap back, "and Bill isn't in my head either, so get that idea out of your head."

Mabel remains on the couch and only glances at me on occasion. She has already said her part to me.

"He will kill you! This is what he does! It's his soul purpose for existing! All he does is manipulate, lie, kill, and conquer!" Ford argues.

He looks furious but deep down I can see the disappointment and agony in his eyes. Bill used him to create the portal. Ford has been betrayed by someone who pretended to be his friend. It's understandable that he wouldn't want the same for me, especially because this is on an even deeper emotional level. 

"I don't care! Everyone dies eventually anyway! I'm happy with him and you can't change that!" I yell back at him.

"He's using you, Dipper!" Stan interjects.

I huff angrily and cross my arms. Stan has never been one for listening, but I would expect just a bit more from Ford, or even Mabel.

"I'm done with this."

I decide to leave the room. I'm not going to take this. I've had enough yelling for quite a while. I leave and slam the door.

I hear Ford yell my name but choose to ignore him. I've had enough fighting and would like to spend the night with Bill elsewhere.
