Thanks for all the comments! I'll try to update whenever I can. Tell me what you think of this chapter! :)

Pacifica's POV

After kissing, I start to get really hot.

"Hey, Dip?" I asked as I pulled away. "Can we go swimming now? It's like a million degrees out here."

"Sure. It is getting pretty hot out." He replies. Much to my surprise, he scoops me up and carries me to the lake. I giggle.

"You're so strong, Dipper. I tell him. He blushes. I like embarassing him. He's so adorable when he blushes.

"Anything for you, Paz." He says. I giggle again. I'm so lucky to be his girlfriend. He gentle sets me on my feet. Ah. The water feels cool on my hot feet. We wade into the water together. It is so peaceful and pretty.

"Wow." I say. "This place is gorgeous."

"That's why you reminded me of it." He says. Awww! How could I not love this nerd? I lean in for a quick kiss. He turns red (once again).

"I love you so much, Dipper." I tell him.

"I love you too, Pacifica." He says. We stare into each other's eyes. His are a deep brown. I get lost in them. All of a sudden, Dipper splashes me.

"Hey!" I squeal. "What was that for?" I splash him back. Before I know it, we are engaged in a full-out splashing war. I try to push him into the water, and he merely laughs at my efforts.

"You have to try harder than that to push me underwater." He states. No way is he going to win this. I try to jump on him to knock him in the water. He laughs harder.

"Sorry Paz, but you're like half my size. I'm not budging." I am pretty petite, but I'm not giving up quite yet. I start getting frustrated. I got it! I lean in to kiss him. As we kiss, I push him underwater. I laugh at him. He pulls me under. I come up from the water to get air.

"Hey! You ruined my hair!" I tell him. It's going to take forever to blow dry it straight again. Dipper laughs.

"Oh, Pacifica. Come on. You always look pretty. Evenwith (fake gasp) wet hair!" I playfully punch his arm. We splash each other some more. We have fun, but Dipper is still gentle. He doesn't try to knock me underwater like I see him do with Mabel. He acts as if I'm more breakable. I think it's sweet how he is such a gentleman.

"Let's go dry off now. I want to work on my tan for a bit." I say. Dipper rolls his eyes with a smirk. "Come on! I say. "Don't you want a nice, tan girlfriend?" I ask playfully.

"Pacifica, I say this with all honesty. I really don't care. It makes zero difference to me." He says. Wow. Most guys only cared about how I look, but Dipper doesn't. How can I love him any more than I do right now?

"Oh, Dipper. " I say as I rub his arm. "You're simply too much."

"What is that supposed to mean?" He says with laugh. He's always honest, I'll give him that.

"It means you are the best boyfriend in the whole world." I reply, Looking up at his eyes. He is much taller than me. That's why I always wear heels, to make up the height difference.

"Well, Pacifica, you are the best girlfriend in the whole world." He says lovingly. We lean in to kiss. He smells like the lake with a mix of sunscreen. Dipper is a pretty good kisser. He may be nerdy at times, but this makes up for it. I pull away.

"Save some for the movie, Dip." I say with a smile. No way am I just sitting there watching the movie the entire time. He laughs at me.

"Let's race. First person to the dock wins. Ready, set, go!" Dipper tells me. We both are quite competitive. I dive in to the water. Dipper and I are neck-and -neck. Dipper soon pulls ahead.

"No fair!" I say. "You're, like, twice my height!"

"That's the point!" He yells back. I get out of the water and run over to the dock.

"Ha! I win." I tell him.

"Wha- that's cheating! You can't just get out of the water and run!" Dipper says, frustrated.

"You should have made that more clear in the rules! As of now, Pacifica Northwest won! And the crowd goes wild!" I say jokingly.

"And now, Pacifica Northwest is going to go work on her tan, which is unappreciated by her boyfriend." I say. I start walking to the dock when I stop short. I gasp.

"Dip!" I manage to whisper. Standing in front of me is a colony of gnomes.

"What-what are those?" I ask. I hope he can still hear me. Dipper comes up to me and stifles a laugh.

"Jeff, what do you want this time?" He asks, I guess addressing one of those little men with pointy hats.

"Well, you didn't tell us you knew this lovely blonde. What is you're name, sugar?" The gnome asks. Is a gnome hitting on me? Gross. Dipper sighs impatiently.

"Guys, we've been over this. Nobody is going to be your gnome queen. Now get out of here before I call Mabel to bring over the leaf blower." What is Dipper talking about? He must have dealt with them before.

"No can do. Come on blondie, lets go back to the forest for the marriage ceremony." he tries to grab me. I scream.

"I guess we'll just have to do this the hard way." the gnome says. All of a sudden. the gnomes morph into some sort of a giant gnome. This is getting really weird. I get an idea. While Dipper tries to reason with the gnome (which isn't working) I grab my tote. I throw my wedges right into the middle of the creature. Gnomes scatter everywhere and run back into the forest. I breathe heavily.

"Pacifica, that was pretty hot, watching you defeat the gnome." He tells me.

"I know. I'm working on my tan now. I suggest you joking me, you're getting a little pale." I tell him. I spread out my towel on the ground and lay on it. Dipper copies the action.

"So we just lay here?" He asks.

"Yep." I tell him. We lay on our towels peacefully for about a minute or two.

"I'm bored. Can we go swimming now?" He asks.

"Nope." I tell him. He groans and fidgets around on the towel. He acts like a preschooler sometimes. At least he doesn't kiss like one. I sigh.

"You go swim. I'll watch." Dipper jumps up and into the pool with a grin. He is so cute. I chill on the towel for a bit and watch Dip cannonball and splash around. Eventually I can't resist and join him. We have a cannonball contest, and I totally beat him. After we swim for a while, I check the time.

"Dip! It's already 5! We need to eave so I can get ready for the movie!"

"Whoa! I guess we lost track of time." He says. We drive off and get into the car.

"That was fun, Dip." I tell him

"Yeah, it was." He says. soon we pull into the Mystery Shack. I rush to my room to take a shower and get ready. Dipper goes to his room to take a shower( I hope). After getting ready, I walk into the kitchen to see Dipper ready to go.

"You look really pretty, Pacifica." He says and extends his arm. I take it as we walk out the door. "I know." I say. We get in to the car. When we get to the movie, it doesn't take long before we just start kissing. The time flies by, and before we know it, the movie is over. Neither of us saw much of it.
