Chapter 12
*Mabel's POV*
"But we're bringing Waddles," I told Dipper, as we were getting ready to go back to Gravity Falls for the day. Mom and Dad were going out of town for the day to go shopping, so we had the whole day to spend in Gravity Falls.
"Fine," Dipper gave in, as it was the third time I'd mentioned bringing him. "What's the point though?"
"So Waddles can see his friends in Gravity Falls," I said. "and his soulmate!"
"Soulmate?" Dipper questioned.
"Yeah, Gompers!" I told him. "You know, long distance relationships can be tough!"
"Gompers is a goat and Waddles is a pig! How could they be soulmates, they're not even the same species!" Dipper argued.
"Well, they seemed very happy together on their wedding day," I told him.
"Mabel, you duct-taped the two animals together!" he exclaimed.
"Still," I said. Dipper picked up his bag.
"Come on," he sighed. I followed him down to the basement and out to the room with the teleporter. I put Waddles in the teleporter. He snorted. Dipper dumped a sack of manure into the funnel and stood inside. He secured the microteleporter on his wrist. I stood beside him, waiting. I closed my eyes and put my hands over my ears, bracing myself for the unbearable light an sound the the machine emitted when in use. Dipper pulled the lever, and we were off.
Once we got there, we went inside the shack, Soos was in the living room with Abuelita watching Duck-tective.
"Is that the new season?" I asked, going over.
"Hey, dudes," Soos said, taking a sip of his Pitt Cola.
"Hey, Soos," Dipper said.
"So, how'd your parents take it when they found out you spent the night at Wendy's?" Soos asked. I smirked. Dipper must've been talking to Soos this morning.
"Actually, they never found out. They were still asleep when I got home," Dipper said, blushing slightly and scratching at the back of his head.
"You're lucky," Soos said.
"You know what we should do?" I asked.
"What?" Dipper asked.
"We should get everyone together to hang out," I suggested.
"Good idea, Mabel dude," Soos said. "I can give Wendy a call and tell her to get her friends together, this'll be fun!"
"and I'll get Candy and Grenda!" I exclaimed.
"Sounds great," Dipper said. I went to call my friends over. Picking up the phone, I dialed Candy's number.
"Hello?" I heard Candy say on the other end.
"Hi, Candy!" I exclaimed.
"Hello, Mabel!" she replied.
"Do you wanna come over and hang out with everyone?" I asked.
"Sure, that sounds fun!" Candy said. "Hey, Grenda!"
"Yeah?" I heard my other friend's voice in the distance.
"Mabel wants us to hang out with her and Dipper and their friends!" Candy called.
"That's awesome!" Grenda called back. "We'll be there!"
Later on, I met everyone out on the grounds of the Mystery Shack. Wendy had gotten a ride with her friends in Thompson's car and Candy and Grenda showed up a few minutes later, getting a ride with Candy's mom.
"Hey, Mabel!" Grenda called from the back seat of Candy's car.
"Hey!" I called back.
"So, what are we, like, gonna do?" Tambry asked.
"I don't know yet," I said. "Dipper, what are we going to do?"
"I don't know," Dipper said. "It was your idea. Hey, maybe we could-"
"Don't say Dungeons, Dungeons and More Dungeons," I said, cutting him off. He frowned.
"How about Truth or Dare?" Robbie suggested.
"I'm good at that!" Thompson said.
"How can you be good at Truth or Dare?" Candy asked.
"Believe me, if anyone can be good at Truth or Dare, it's Thompson," Wendy said. Everyone laughed.
"So, are we playing Truth or Dare?" Nate asked.
"I guess so," Dipper replied.
"Yes!" Lee exclaimed.
"Hey, dudes!" Soos said. "So what're we doin?"
"Truth or Dare," I told him.
"Ooh, fun!" Soos said, excitedly. We all sat down on the grass.
*Wendy's POV*
"Who should go first?" Robbie asked.
"Let Dipper go first!" Mabel suggested.
"Yeah, go dude!" Soos agreed.
"Alright, uh, Grenda, truth or dare?" he asked.
"Uhhh, truth!" she said
"Okay... ummm, what would you do if... you encountered a real life Gobblewonker?" he asked.
"Did someone say Gobblewonker?!" McGucket asked, appearing in the doorway.
"Yeah, but I was just asking Grenda a truth question," Dipper said.
"Oh," McGucket said, disappointedly.
"So?" Dipper asked.
"I would CRUSH it with my bare hands!" Grenda shouted, smashing a rock against her forehead.
"You turn Grenda!" Mabel exclaimed. "Oh and Dipper, not so much nerd talk next time." Dipper rolled his eyes.
"You, the cute guy over there!" Grenda said, pointing to Nate.
"Me?" Nate asked, blushing. Lee and I started laughing.
"You know who you are!" Grenda said. "Truth or dare?"
"Uhhh, dare?" Nate said.
"I dare you to, uh... lick Soos' foot!" Grenda told him.
"Eww!" Nate said, disgusted.
"You gotta do it, man!" Lee said, trying to hold back laughter. Soos took of his shoe and sock, wiggling his toes at Nate. Nate winced before going over.
"Lick that foot! Lick that foot!" Mabel chanted. Soon everyone had joined in. Nate knelt down by Soos' outstretched foot. He stuck out his toungue, reluctanly and inched forward until it had made contact.
"OHHH!" everyone said at the same time.
"Kinda tickles!" Soos said, giggling.
"Okay, I need a drink," Nate said.
"I'll get you one," Soos said, going inside, his foot still bare.
"Okay, Robbie, truth or dare?" Nate asked.
"Truth," Robbie replied.
"Okay..." Nate said, thinking. "Who here would you date if you weren't dating Tambry?"
"I think everyone here knows the answer to that," Tambry said, looking up from her phone. Robbie blushed. I smirked, but I may have been blushing slightly, too.
"Ok, uhh..." Robbie started, looking around at who he could ask. "Mabel, truth or dare?"
"Truth!" Mabel exclaimed.
"Out of all the guys you fell for over the summer, who did you like the most?" Robbie asked.
"Oh, good one!" Dipper said. "Getting Mabel to choose between boys is like asking Soos to choose between pizza and bacon!"
"Umm," Mabel started. "Well, there was the guy I gave the yes, definitely, absolutely note to, the guy with the turtle, then there was Gabe Benson, Mermando, and all the boys from Sev'ral Timez. I would have to pick...uhh...Mermando, because he was my first kiss, and the only one I ever had a real connection with."
"Okay," Robbie said. "Pick someone."
"Hmm..." Mabel said. "Wendy! Truth or dare?!"
"Dare," I replied. I'm always up for a physical challenge.
"I dare you to, hmm," Mabel started, thinking. Then a devilish smirk appeared on her lips. Uh oh, this couldn't be good, and with Mabel, it could be anything. "I dare you to kiss Dipper!" How could I have not seen that coming.
"OHHHH!" everyone exclaimed at the same time. I blushed. Dipper turned toward me. He was red, too. I could tell he was nervous, but excited at the same time. I moved closer to the younger boy, who had a nervous smile on his face. I hoped he wouldn't take this too seriously. I leaned in toward him. He leaned in closer as well until our lips had touched. It was a little awkward at first, but I pulled him closer so I could actually kiss him. Everyone started to cheer. Dipper flinched at the feeling of my lips on his. I could feel his heart pounding in his chest. But, he kissed back, surprisingly well, and I felt this spark, unlike any other kiss I've ever had. It was an amazing feeling. I pulled Dipper yet, closer, wanting more of this feeling, kissing him deeper. He put his arms around my waist, and for a second I forgot what was going on, until I heard the CRASH of glass breaking. Dipper and I broke away from the kiss to see what had happened. Everything was now silent and Soos stood in the doorway, after dropping Nate's drink in shock from what he'd just seen.
"So, dudes, what'd I miss?" Soos asked, breaking the awkward silence in a way too casual tone.
"Hey! It's Gompers!" Mabel exclaimed, pointing to the edge of the woods where the goat was standing, and appearedto be chewing something.
"What's he eating?" Thompson asked.
"It looks like a watch," Candy said.
"A watch?!" Dipper asked, looking suddenly alarmed. His gaze shot to his wrist. "No, hes got the microteleporter!" Dipper ran over to the goat and attempted to get the device out of its mouth. Gompers let go of it and ran into the woods. Dipper tried to use it, testing the buttons on the device. A few sparks were emitted from it, causing Dipper to drop it, startled. He picked it up again. "It's broken," he said. "Mabel, we're stuck here."
