"What!?" Dipper nearly screamed. "Pfft not for real silly! I'm simply teaching Bill the ways of love. We're doing a practice date thing." Mabel replied casually. Dipper sighed. "I asked shooting star to teach me about love, and so far I've learned to flirt, and how to be a gentleman, and now we are 'dating' so I guess I was pretty good." Bill said. "All the girls will love you! Just wait till we go out, then you can try your skills on real girls!" Mabel smiled.

"Um absolutely not!" Dipper said. "He isn't going to try to land a real date. He's a demon first off, then he's like who knows how old,"

"Hey!" Bill cut in. "-and it's just a no. Bill needs to stay in the manor until we can leave this place and return to normal." Dipper finished.

"Ugh fine then. Well me and my 'boyfriend' are off to practice in my room." Mabel said taking Bill. "No kissing practice!" Dipper called after her. Bill smirked. Dipper had to mentally face palm. Why would Mabel teach Bill the ways of love? Then he remembered their talk in the bottomless pit. Oh yeah.

Dipper said That they would fix Bill's love problem. Dipper's love problem was not doing any better though. When he was around Wendy the two of them were just friends. Maybe it was Dipper who needed love help.

===========================================

Another two days had passed, and Stan hadn't found a master plan. "Okay. I am running out of ideas. We can pick this up later. This kid needs a nap." And with that, he went upstairs. Bill had been walking the halls while the gang made plans. He was going over his new love knowledge. "I should try out my skills. And I think I know who on. After all Pinetree didn't say I could try my skills on girls inside the manor." He said looking at Wendy. "No, Pinetree likes her, and I know that I can't just steal her from him. Maybe I can ask her about him. Matchmaking time!" Bill smiled going over to Wendy.

Dipper was patrolling the opposite hall thinking. "I need to try to fix my act with Wendy. I can have a summer romance! It doesn't look like we'll be leaving here any time soon." With that, Dipper went off in search of Wendy.

========================================

Bill sat next to Wendy on a couch. "Hey Wend! Can I call you that? Anyway, I am getting more used to being 12. How about you?" He asked. "Hey Bill. Yeah, at least everyone's 12 so it's easier to get along." Wendy replied. "Now I know how Dipper feels. Speaking of him, what are your thoughts on him?" Bill asked. "He's super cool, and so nice to me." Wendy smiled. 'So far so good.' Bill thought. He sat a little closer and continued his questions.

========================================

Dipper was nearing the living area. He heard voices. Curious he went faster. He took a deep breath and rounded the corner... to see Bill next to Wendy. They were laughing and talking like old friends, and they sat so close, their hands almost touching. Bill spotted Dipper and looked up. "Hey Pinetree..." he said slowly noticing Dipper's expression. "What is going on here? Are you guys, like-" Dipper couldn't finish his sentence. Wendy and Bill detected the hurt in his voice. "Dipper, it wasn't like that," Wendy started. "I was just-" Bill tried to explain.

Dipper quickly turned away from the and went away. "I'll um, be back." Bill told Wendy. He couldn't place the human feeling inside of him, but he knew he'd messed up.
