+Pines Home+

"WHAT?!" Dipper exclaimed loudly to the person on the other end of the phone. His manager, Richard, had just called again asking if he could work the night shift again.

"Please dude, the night guard I hired just upped and disappeared during duty. I was coming to check on how he was last night only to find him gone." Richard told him with a sigh. "I'm begging you Dipper!"

The teen scratched the back of his head and check his schedule for tomorrow to see if he was busy. "Fine manager, I'll take over the nightguard shift again, just do me a favor and find another person quick." He replied as he pinched the bridge of his nose.

"Thank you Dipper! Just so you know I have another business meeting held in Ohio for awhile so you can manager the restaurant for awhile." The man laughed.

"Stop adding work on me!" Dipper cried out and sighed when his manger ended the call. His mood slowly dropping knowing he'll have to face the animatronic again tomorrow night.

'Why does fate hate me so?' He thought as he set his phone down on his desk. He picked up his pencil and started writing in his journal again just to finish the last detail of his observation.

So perfect is he, he hold your heart~
Sing for him, oh sing!
You know you want to~

He smiled at the drawing of the yellow animatronic on the page as he ignored the sing voice in his head.

+Dipper's Dream+

Dipper didn't know why he was conscious in his dream again. It hadn't happen for so long already, so why now?

It was one of weird dreams as if you lived another live then your current one.

He had a young body of a 12 year old who wore a blé and white cap with a PineTree symbol on hit with causal outer wear. Blue vest, orange shirt, grey shorts hitch were too short for his liking, and black sneakers.

Dipper walked around the empty town that used to be filled with people when he used to have these kinds dreams. Now it was like a ghost town.

He walked around a bit more until he found a familiar housing in he would that was named the Mystery Shack. Saw a few people enter that looked like his great uncles and his sister.

Suddenly it felt hot and he couldn't breath, he looked back to find the place behind him was going up in flames. He quickly rushed to the shack where he would find help from, but the people there only closed the door on him and locked it. Unable to open door he walked through the flames quickly and shut his eyes tightly closed and his dream scene changed.

The surrounding became a ruin of the town of his dreams before. A rip in the sky was there with weird creatures flowing out of it. Among the scared and dirtied people there seemed to be no trust unless they were really close. No trust, he had to find trust in someone. He backed up only to find himself bump into somebody.

He turned around and found some creature instead of a human. It was a yellow floating triangle looking at him. Only saying one word to him that made him shiver, but not in a scared or creepy way.

"PineTree."

+Gravity Falls: Paranomia+

Dipper could feel Bill's piecing every part of his body as soon as he got to work today. It was a mix of anger, happiness, and sadness.

Mabel had joined him today too feeling that her brother needed support for now and tonight. She could obviously tell from Tad and Pyronica's expressions and stiff body language that they knew what happen last night was not something good when Bill found out Dipper was not there. "Bro bro..."

"I'm fine Mabel, hopefully I can get through all of this." Dipper assured his twin to try and cheer her up.

"But Dipper, I just don't want you to- you know... Have a replay..." Mabel quietly says to him with worry. "As you older sister I'm worried." She chewed on her pizza after she took a bite.

Dipper smiled at his sister softly and patted her on the head. "Your like older by 5 minutes I don't it really think it makes a difference." He joked before looking at his sister in the eyes. "Plus I know I won't have another repeat, I promise." His eyes glancing at her drink. "If I do, you know how to fix me up. You've done it many times you know, I've been broken many times, but I'll always end up fixed by you." He watched her nod slowly and sip her ice tea. Dipper headed back to his job while Mabel watched Bill and his crew sing.

I know I can't one more step,
Towards you
Cause all that's waiting is regret~

And don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore,
You lost the love, I loved the most~

Tad sang out to the audience in the restaurant. It's almost heart breaking that almost everyone gave the bot sympathy. Then the light shown of Pyronica who had a sad expression on her face, having the same affect on the customers too.

I learned to live, half a life,
And now you want me one more time~

They started singing together in harmony with everyone entranced by them.

And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars~
Collecting your jar of hearts,
And tearing Iove apart

You're gonna catch a cold,
From the ice inside your soul~
So don't come back for me,
Who do you think you are?~

I hear your asking all around,
If I am anywhere to be found~
But I have grown too strong~
To ever fall back in your arms

I learned to live, half a life,
And now you want me one more time~

And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars~
Collecting your jar of hearts,
And tearing love apart

You're gonna catch a cold,
From the ice inside your soul~
So don't come back for me,
Who do you think you are?~

It took so long, just to feel alright~
Remember how, put back the light in my eyes

I wish, I had miss the first time that we kissed~
'Cause you broke all your promises

And now you're back
You don't get to get me back!

And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars~
Collecting your jar of hearts,
And tearing love apart

You're gonna catch a cold,
From the ice inside your soul~
So don't come back for me,
Don't come back at all

Who do you think you are?~
Runnin' round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart

You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your souls

So don't come back for me,
Don't come back at all!~

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think... you are?

Mabel looked back at her brother with a knowing look. In a lot of songs this one would probably match him the most. Her brother tended to push out the people who have stolen his heart and put in in their jars. Every time a little piece of his heart going away with that person.

"Oh bro bro..."

+Night: Paranomia+

Dipper had immediately gone to the surveillance room and locked as well as block the door with a heavy cabinet. 'Okay, I'm am seriously not ready to face Bill yet.' He thought with a groan as he looked over to the cameras. To his surprise he found the said bot already looking into the camera with a wide grin. "Why me?" He whined.

Meanwhile, Mabel was with Pyronica and Tad talking about what happens to the night guard that was appointed yesterday.

She gasp, "Bill killed him?!" She exclaimed.

Both of the bots nodded at her exclamation. "He was so out of it, since his love didn't appear to work last night, bot saw red and killed the guy who "stole his" lover's job." Pyronica explained to the brunette.

"And guess who had to clean up after his mess." Tad shook his head and sighed.

"Bill was really hurt when he didn't come, wasn't he?" Mabel looks at them as they nodded their head. The teen's mind wander what was up with her twin right now.

+

Dipper had to be the most unluckiest person at the moment.

Bill had made it passed his blocked entrance of his safe zone and grabbed him the moment he was about to escape. Now said bot was carrying him back to the stage room where he would keep the both of them in his cage until morning. Once they got there he did just that, the blond set Dipper on his swing and walked over to his cage door and locked it up. Thus hanging the key around his neck like a necklace.

Neither of them spoke for a moment.

"Bill-"

"PineTree." The animatronic's voice stern, made the brunet quiet. "Did you know about your supposed change in with that pest?"

Dipper glanced off to the side, ashamed to even look at Bill in the face. "I knew... Manager told me on my last night of night guard."

"Why didn't you tell me?!" The boy's eyes flashed red before returning to blue. His hands were clenched and shaken. "Your suppose to be here all the time!" He exclaimed.

"Because Bill, this was only suppose to be temporary, I was only temporary!" Dipper exclaimed at the blond with angry yet sad eyes. "Please Bill, just stop liking me already, I've had enough of this. I don't want to break and give my heart anymore. I'm tired of breaking Bill..." Tears started to fall down his eyes.

Bill was taken aback by the sudden outburst by Dipper. At the moment he just wanted to comfort the human in front of him. Show him he was here for him always, that he'll protect him and never betray him. He walked close to the brunet and gave him a hug.

Dipper was limp in his hold as tears continued to stream down his cheeks. His expression now neutral.

"Hey PineTree, how bout I pass the town with a story?"

Dipper closed his eyes. "Go ahead."

"Before I became trapped in this contraction... I had weird dream. I know me being a dream demon and all, you might think I can control my dreams, but I can't." The boy told him with a sigh as he stroked Dipper's back soothingly. "My dream, I was in a human form, I was somewhere where you humans would place your so called vehicles outside. I was there and I found myself being chased by a young boy with chocolate brown hair. He chased me down the way and touched my arm and said 'Tag you're it'. Next thing I knew, he grabbed my hand and pushed me to the ground. I lost my words to say anything to him. I was hiding underground the next game we played and I tried talking, but I couldn't speak. Next thing I knew a woman appeared asking me to pick from the best of ladies behind her. I looked among them and funny thing was, I found you among them. You just seemed to capture my interest all to well so I chose you. And I am happy to say that I'm as hell as happy to have you in my possession once I saw you the moment I first noticed you here." He explained to the brunet calmly.

Dipper hummed at the story of Bill's dream, it got him thinking of my dream. He sluggishly moved him self a bit closer to Bill near his ear and started out a little tune.

Died last night in my dreams, walking the streets
Of some old ghost town
I~ tried to believe, in God and James Dean
But Hollywood sold out
Saw all of the saints, lock up the gates
I could not enter...

The brunet remember his dream a bit more clearly as he sang to the bot who was still hugging him. The bot moved Dipper to sit comfortably in his lap while he teen's arms were wrapped around his neck. He listened to him sing more.

Walked into the flames
Called out your name, but there was no answer
And now I know my heart
Is a ghost town

My heart is a ghost town

Bill nuzzled cheek against Dipper's cheek with a slight smile on his face. He kissed the teen lovingly on his jawline before sing his own song to him about his dream.

Running through the parking lot,
He chased me and he wouldn't stop
Tag, you're it, Tag Tag you're it
Grabbed my hand and pushed me down
Took the words right my mouth
Tag, you're it, Tag Tag you're it

My heart is a ghost town

Dipper added his own lyrics during Bill's slight humming before he sang again.

Can anybody hear me?
I'm hidden under ground
Can anybody hear me?
Am I talking to myself?

Saying- Tag, you're it, Tag Tag you're it
He's saying Tag, you're it, Tag Tag you're it

My heart is a ghost town

The brunet sang again as the neutral expression on his face change to a soft smile. He moved his hand to hold Bill's gloved steel hand.

Died last night in my dreams, all the machines
Have been disconnected
Time was thrown at the wind
And all of my friends,
Had been disaffected

Now, I'm searching for trust
In a city of rust
A city of vampires

Tonight, Elvis is dead
And everyone's spread
And love is a satire
And now I know, my heart is a ghost town

Bill gave him another kiss, but on this lips this time before he sang once more. Dipper sighed and kissed the bot on the cheek.

Running through the parking lot,
He chased me and he wouldn't stop
Tag, you're it, Tag Tag you're it

My heart is a ghost town

Grabbed my hand and pushed me down
Took the words right my mouth
Tag, you're it, Tag Tag you're it

My heart is a ghost town

Can anybody hear me?
I'm hidden under ground
Can anybody hear me?
Am I talking to myself?

Saying- Tag, you're it, Tag Tag you're it
He's saying Tag, you're it, Tag Tag you're it

My heart is a ghost town

Ernie meenie miny mo

There's no one left in the world

Catch a lady by her toes

I'm gunslingin'

If she screams

Don't give a f*** if I go

Don't let her go

Down, Down, Down

Ernie meenie miny mo

I got a voice in my head

Your mother said

That keeps singing

To pick the very best girl
And I am~

My heart is a ghost town

Running through the parking lot,
He chased me and he wouldn't stop
Tag, you're it, Tag Tag you're it

My heart is a ghost town

Grabbed my hand and pushed me down
Took the words right my mouth
Tag, you're it, Tag Tag you're it

My heart is a ghost town

Running through the parking lot,
He chased me and he wouldn't stop
Tag, you're it, Tag Tag you're it

My heart is a ghost town

Bill brought his hands up to Dipper's face to cup his cheeks gently and lovingly. "I'm here PineTree, for you. I promise I won't leave you, nor will I ever hurt you." He kissed the brunet's forehead lightly and then placing his own forehead against Dipper's.

Dipper couldn't help, but feel like bursting out with joy. He laughed for a bit and gave the yellow animatronic a chaste kiss on the lips that made Bill blush. "You stupid bot. I love you."

"I love you too my PineTree." Bill says back with his signature grin. "I'll love forever and infinity." He deeply kisses Dipper on the lip.

+Meanwhile with Mabel and the two bots+

"Are you serious Shooting Star?!" Pyronica exclaimed as she covers her mouth.

Tad a hand held up to his chin as he was thinking. "But how is that possible?!"

Mabel sighed and rolled her eyes. "When you got a paranormal/scientist great uncle and a trickster stealing uncle too, they can basically do anything. By all mean I'm just Dipper's care taker since the accident a few years back. By heart and mind he still is my loving brother, but he just isn't you know..." she trailed off in her sentence. "He isn't human anymore."
