"Pacifica?!" I exclaim, scrambling to the floor to pick up the sweater I dropped. The blond girl bent down and helped me pick it up. She then looked at me in a confused way.

"Have we met before somewhere?" She asks me, raising an eyebrow,  confused as she puts the sweater back on the rack.

"It's me! Dipper?" I say and a spark of light flashes in her eyes as if to say that she had finally realised and remembered who I was.

"Dipper? Dipper...Pines?" She makes sure.

I nod "Who else, silly?!"

"Oh my gosh!" She yelps, suddenly certain who I was "I haven't seen you in forever! How's Mabel?"

"She's fine." I reply, overjoyed that I've finally met someone from before.

"Is she here? Is she with you?" She asks, looking around and behind me.

"No. Not at the moment," I rub the back of my neck "I'm trying to look for her. She said she'd be at the mall and I'm trying to find the store that looks the most Mabel." She giggles at my response. "Do you want to help me find her?" I suddenly ask, wondering why I asked it because my face was burning with blush.

"Sorry, I can't. I'm on my shift here so..." She says in a disappointed kind of way.

"Oh, okay," I said, kind of disappointed as well, looking down at the floor "It's fine. I'll look for her by myself." And then I look up at her "You want to...meet again later?" I ask and this time I'm blushing so violently that I was surprised how she couldn't tell that my face was so overly red.

"Sure." She said with a smile "I could give you my phone number but I don't have a pen on me..."

"That's alright! I could just add your number to my contacts," I take out my phone from my pocket. She tells me the number and I type it in and save it. "When I'm free, I could call you." I tell her, about to put my phone away "And we could meet up, okay? I'll bring Mabel next time." She smiles at me. Before I could put my phone back in my pocket, it starts to ring. Speak of the devil...It was a call from Mabel. "Hello?" I say casually, still looking at Pacifica.

"DIPPER PINES WHERE ARE YOU?! I'M BEEN WAITING FOR YOU FOR LIKE FIFTEEN MINUTES. WHERE. ARE. YOU???" Mabel Shouts at the other end, making me nearly drop my phone because she was so loud.

"Where are you?" I answer back instead "I thought you'd be in Fashion Explosion?"

"I was at that store two hours ago! I'm in Crazy Clothes right now." she informs me and I could feel her rolling her eyes at the other end.

"Should have guessed," I sighed, hanging up. "I'll see you later, Pacifica," I say, about to leave the store.

"Yeah, soon." She waves her hand gently at me. I walk out with a smile on my face. Pacifica had changed a lot since the last time I saw her. For one, she was much nicer and she seemed genuinely glad to see me. She still had that long blond hair that I still presume is probably bleached that color. I didn't expect her to be working at a store as a clerk considering her high status. Maybe she doesn't care about that anymore?

I enter the store that Mabel instructed me to go to, finding her in the tops section. "Mabel!" I say, walking towards her "You'll never guess who I just bumped into-"

"Tell me about it later!" She interrupts me and then shoves two t shirts In front of my face "Which one do you think goes better with my new skirt: the lime green one or the forest green one?"

"Honestly Mabel, I can't really tell the difference." I reply in a dull expression.

"So you're saying I should just buy both?" She squints at the two t shirts in her hands.

"Whatever you want," I sigh, following her to the counter. She buys the two and then starts to leave the shop with Candy and Grenda holding shopping bags in each hand and walking along side her. I walk a few feet behind them, feeling awkward having to walk around with a bunch of girls. They go down to the ground floor where the food court is and we sit down at a table to have lunch. "I thought we agreed we'd have lunch at the Greasy Diner?"

"I'm way too hungry to go all the way there!" Mabel says, rubbing her stomach as Grenda returns with a tray of chilli fries. We distributed them among ourselves and started to eat. I opened a can of Pitt Cola and chugged it down; I was hungry myself since I had left the apartment without having breakfast first.

"Should I order some nachos as well?" Grenda asks us after we all finished.

"And ice cream!" Mabel adds. Grenda nods and gets up from her seat to go get more food. Mabel turns to me as I'm still drinking the can of cola and asks "What was that thing you were going to tell me at that store again?"

"Oh yeah," I remember, putting down the can "I was looking for you in Fashion Explosion and I met-"

"Sup dorks!" A familiar voice cut me off and we all turned around to see who it belonged to.

"Wendy!!" Mabel squealed, getting up from her seat and throwing her arms around the redhead.

"Oh crap, dude! You're so tall now!" Wendy tells her and she blushes. She looks towards me and I get up to greet her too. "Dip!"

"Hey Wendy," I hold out my hand to give her a hand shake but instead she lets go of Mabel and gives me a hug too, making my face go crimson.

"Man, you've grown too. You're like, taller than me now!" She let's go of me, smiling at us both. "I can't believe you guys came back to Gravity Falls again."

"We're spending the summer here," Mabel told her "What about you? What're you doing here in at the mall?"

"Just here shopping with my fiancé," she says, lifting up the bags she was holding.

"Fiancé?!" I sounded shocked "Y-you're getting married?" I try to hide the extremely surprised expression on my face by faking a smile.

"Yup," she nodded, running a hand through her red hair. "Here he comes now!" A guy walks towards us, fastening his arm around Wendy's waist and kissing her on the cheek "Shawn, these are the two maniacs I was telling you about. The ones that came to Gravity Falls in the summer when they were 12? Dipper and Mabel Pines!"

"Hi guy!" Mabel greeted him enthusiastically.

"Uh..hey..." I hesitated.

"Anyway, I'll see you dudes later. Shawn and I have a lot of shopping to do." Wendy tells us, waving goodbye and walking away in the arms of her fiancé. We sit back down at our table.

"Hey everyone! I bought the nachos!" Grenda comes back with another tray in her hands.

"I'm not hungry anymore," I say, getting up from our table and walking off.

"Wait, Dipper!" Mabel calls after me, getting up as well and following me "I'll come back in a minute, Candy, so don't eat my nachos!" She runs after me. I carry on walking, my hands in my pocket. "Come on, Dipper. What the heck?" She yelled at me but I still kept walking "Why did you just storm off like that, dammit?!" She grabs my shoulder and stops me.

"I don't know!" I yell back "Just leave me, Mabel!"

She pauses, looking me straight in the eyes. I look away, a bitter expression on my face. "I know why..." She whispered "You haven't gotten over Wendy, have you? It's been ten years, Dipper-"

"I have, alright!" I shout "I have gotten over her! It's just- I don't know! She's getting married now, Mabel!"

"See, you haven't gotten over her at all!" Mabel tells me "And I thought you'd move in from her in these ten years. You need to move on, Dipper."

"I know!" I cover my face with my hands, embarrassed.

"I can help you Dipper,' Mabel looks at me in a gentle and caring way.

"No, I don't need help," I reply "I just... I just need to be alone right now."

"Okay." She says, wrapping her arms around me. But I don't hug her back.
