30. Falling For You
◄ Pacifica Pines ►
Running, pumping my legs with my heart racing in my chest, threatening to lurch out of my throat. I felt a rush of panic and adrenalin as I ran and ran as fast as I could. The panic seeped through me, worrying thoughts poking at me and adrenalin shooting through my veins, making me feel unstoppable. The trees were blurred as I ran down the pavement, nearing the bus station.
I quickly took out my wallet and grabbed a wad of cash and waited a second to catch my breath as I waited on the sideway for the bus. I heaved and panted, and put both of my hands on my knees, breathing in and out the cold, bitter air. Little pitter patter was heard around me and I looked up, and saw trickles of rain falling down.
I heard the screech of tires and the stop of a bus and I ran as quick as I could inside, trying not to get wet. I looked at the tired bus driver, grey prickly hair at his chin as he thanked me as I gave him the money, he gestured for me to sit down. I walked and sat at the end of the empty bus, hearing the droplets of water hitting the ceiling of the bus.
It was continuous rain, with light thunder heard softly in the background. The calming silence in the bus did nothing but make my heart thunder even more, anxiety ripping through my heart and shredding my very being to bits. I felt even more restless as I breathed heavily, my eyes nervously flitting everywhere.
Worrying thoughts flashed through my mind like a bright green light, and I absolutely hated it. My toes curled in nervousness and I felt my fingers dig into the palm of my hand as I made my hand a fist. I felt tears blur my vision, and I took a deep breath. It's just Dipper, and I just have to say sorry, nothing to get emotional about, Paz! Get a grip of yourself!
But isn't this how you're supposed to feel when you know you're falling hard for someone?
I shook my head and massaged my forehead, feeling uneasiness coldly grip me from the neck and squeeze me. I heard the bus stop and I ran out of the bus and almost tripped when I got out. I yelled a thank you to the bus driver and ran as fast as I could, the rain flooding down on me, leaving me drenching wet when I came nearer the Tent of Telepathy.
It looked worn down and tired, with its usual bright lights shut and the rain heavily drowning it. It looked like it was sadly looking down at me, warning me from something. I heard people talking, and immediately took it as though Dipper was going to be there. I ran again, my heart at my sleeve and my nerves a wreck.
I felt my mascara slide further down my face and hang at my chin. I wiped it, only to have rain drip at my face. I felt sweaty, soaked and tired. Both emotionally and physically. So much running, and so much emotional stress just from one misunderstanding. I'd get this right and we'd be happy again, both Dipper and I.
That was until I kept walking in a fast pace and stopped only to see Dipper turned his face, one hand on a girls cheek and the other wrapped around her waist. His hand was caressing her cheek and he tilted his head, his lips moving against hers. He looked ferocious, and hungry, snogging the heck out of that girl. The girl was as tall as him, but more bulky then him. She had both her gorilla-like arms around his neck.
"Dipper?" I quietly said, walking to them until I was behind them. Dipper immediately pushed the girl off of him, and she fell to the muddy ground. She wiped her lips and had bloodshot eyes. It was a girl with bulky arms and broad shoulders, and mouse brown hair that stuck to her face because of the pouring rain.
She quickly got up, her eyes blurring up again and turned around and ran. I heard her sobs as she ran. I whipped my head back at Dipper, who looked gorgeous as ever. The rain made him look like a broken angel, the pale moons light casting a halo like look on him. His hair was wet but looked soft as always. His eyes were an indigo, and his pale skin that glowed underneath the moon.
He looked at me under his hair, and his hands shoved in his dripping, black slacks. His t-shirt hug to his chest, defining his torso and defined stomach. His vest was thrown on the floor, and one of his t-shirts buttons were open, and it wasn't tucked into his pants. He looked like a complete and utter mess. He raked a hand in his hair and looked at me again with slightly glazed eyes.
They turned a slight blue and looked at me through... curiosity. As though he was waiting for me to scream and shout and blow my head off. But I wasn't going to be like last time, I'd listen to him and forgive him because even if my mind would scream at me to punish him right now, my heart would soon yearn for him because I cared too much.
Even the though ached my chest and I took a deep breath. I crossed my arms and looked at him. The rain poured harder, thunder etching in the air and crackling.
"Care to explain?" I said through a raspy voice, and it was threatening to break. He blinked and looked lost as his once light blue eyes turned a mixture of light hazel and dark, chocolate brown swirls. His mouth opened and closed and his hands were out of his pockets. He looked completely flabbergasted when he reached up to feel his swollen red lips that were a few minutes ago on the girl.
"Did - you? - Mabel? - what?" he said airily, looking panic and nerve stricken. "Oh God, Pacifica," he said, taking a step to me and taking my hands and burying his face into them. I felt hot warm tears in my hands and felt them tingle as they laced through my fingers and dropped to the floor. "Oh God - Oh God - Pacifica, Mabel... she wanted the Journals, she used her power for this, and oh God, I'm so sorry, you have no idea how sorry I am, Paz, I couldn't ever do that to you," he said through a cracked voice, mumbling through my hands.
He sounded unsure and like a nervous train wreck and I hated seeing him like this. I swallowed my pride and looked at him, my heart feeling as though it would explode. I did something horrible to him, and I guess Mabel, or whoever thought it, wanted him to do something horrible to me too, so I guess we're even.
"Dipper?" I said, removing my hands and putting them on his warm cheeks. He looked at me with broken eyes and nodded and swallowed. I saw his Adams apple bob up and down and I looked at him with sincerity. "I trust you and I forgive you. But I also wanted to say, I am sorry too, for the way I acted," I said softly, looking at him through my eyes, trying to show him how grateful I was.
"You're the most annoying and stubborn girl I've ever met," he whispered as he took my hand and gave it a light squeeze. I looked up at him under my lashes, trying so hard not to blush as he used his other hand to brush off the straying hairs that had fallen on my face.
He leaned in, his breath fanning over my lips. I immediately blushed, and felt my heart thundering against my ribcage. I felt emotions swirl through my head, and I had come to one conclusion; I had fallen.
Fallen for him.
"I mean, who'd still want me after all of this?" he said, as he let loose a hoarse laugh. I glanced at his lips and glanced back at his eyes.
"I would," I grinned at him.
"After all of this?" he asked yet again.
"Definitely," I replied in confirmation.
"Then, Pacifica Pines, I must say, I'm falling for you," he whispered as he leaned in.
