Chapter 9
As said previously, Gravity Falls no longer felt the same, even if it looked the same.
It was a funny thing how human beings could constantly feel themselves trapped inside weird feelings, that didn't quite have a name, and couldn't quite be described. Dipper always found himself knowing exactly what he was feeling, and in times of his life he found himself confused, it wasn't confusion at all, but acceptance issues, that would quickly be solved.
Though, for the first time in his life, he didn't know what it was inside him. It wasn't confusion, because he'd have known the feeling confusion, it was something so much more. It was a mix of thousands of unamed feelings, that he couldn't relate to anything.
He knew what he had to do, he had a plan, and he was decided to find answers. Then, why was it so hard to keep on going? Why was it so hard for his body to respond his mind? Why couldn't he just knock on that god damn door, and give a start to everything?
Wasn't he looking for it? Wasn't it the reason he was there?
It wasn't guilt anymore. It was much stronger, and a rather annoying feeling. Annoying because he didn't know what it was, and Dipper Pines could be really annoyed when realize he doesn't know something. He was supposed to know it.
He was there seeking answers, the desire to find what could explain the nightmares had droven him to Gravity Falls, but still he couldn't seem to feel that will anymore.
Slowly, even hesitantly, he knocked on the door. He should've warned he was coming to visit. Anyways, it was too late for thinking, too late to go back to sleep, he was there, he had a goal, and he was going to find those answers.
He heard a voice inside the old house shout, "Customers," and was no longer able to hold down a smile. The town could feel different from before, but nothing in the world would ever be able to change that voice, or that personality.
"Grunkle Stan!" He smiled, as soon as the old man opened the door. The man slowly taking off the eye patch, and grinning back.
"Dipper!"
*********************
So, did you find them? Wirt texted.
Yeah... Grunkle Stan still the same, but I think there's something wrong with Grunkle Ford.
Why's that?
I don't know. He's kind of acting like Mabel...
She knocked on your door today's morning.
Oh shit...
Exactly. Then, she knocked on my door.
What did you tell her?
That I had no idea where you were! She didn't believe me much though...
Oh man... Why hadn't she texted me yet, then?
How am I supposed to know?
Hey, she saw you before I!
Uh yeah.
Oh man...
Are you jealous?
No? Why would I be?
Because she had the pleasure of seeing my pretty face before you?
Oh yeah, sure.
Ouch, I sense sarcasm.
Wow, what a smart boy!
Shouldn't you be worried that she didn't text you?
I guess... I should be more worried about what's she's planning, right? What if they're hiding something from me?
You said your Grunkle Stan is acting normal.
He is. But he's almost an actor, really good at fooling idiot people.
You're not an idiot.
Right now, I'm the idiot. The only one who doesn't know what's happening, and no one wants to tell me!
Calm down. You'll figure this out. And then you'll tell me everything, ok?
You're just another curious jerk, aren't you?
Kind of. But I'm still here, right?
Yeah... I kind of miss my apartment. This place is a mess. Plus, I miss my own coffee machine, this one here is old as hell.
Gosh.
Yeah.
At least you have your phone.
At least. I just want to solve this as quickly as I can. It's kind of killing me inside.
I think I'm gonna ask your sister out.
What! No! Holy shit, she's my sister, and. Man, that was out of nowhere.
I was joking. Ok, I should make myself clearer while texting.
Uh, yeah.
Were you jealous?
Stop asking me this? I'm gonna wait for her to call me, then I'll text you.
I'll be waiting. I want to know what's going on.
Yeah, me too.
