Hey guys! Sorry for not updating this book for so long, I...I've honestly been thinking of ending this book because I don't really have anymore inspiration for Billdip fics. I'll definitely make a few more oneshots, complete those two old songfic requests from months ago, but after that, I really don't know. I kinda don't want to end it because this was my first book and it's gained so much support and y'all love it and I don't want to let you down. I'm still thinking though. Anyway, this was supposed to be a Valentine's Day story but...I kinda got lazy? Hfhckjefjakr sorry. This one's about our favorite lil demon child going on a little scavenger hunt for a surprise from Dippy uwu Enjoy!

Third Person POV:

Bill woke up to a face covered in sweet-smelling yellow rose petals. 'Huh, what? What is this vibrant yellow plant covering my human facial orafices?!' He thought. He shook off the petals and sat up in bed. Rubbing the sleep out of his eyes, he looked around the room to see more colorful petals strewn around on the floor. What was this?

Suddenly, the short little demon noticed a piece of square paper lying on his bedside table. It was canary yellow and shiny like silver glitter, with a little poem written on it in blue gel pen. Bill picked up the paper and read the small, 4-lined riddle printed in neat cursive.

Good morning, my love
How was your rest?
I have a little adventure for you
First, go to the place where birds make their nests

Hint: Forest behind the shack

(PS: Bring Cosmic with you)

Bill awwed, patting his cheek softly. 'He's so sweet...'

Putting the card down, he threw off the covers and padded over to his dresser. He pulled out a soft yellow hoodie, a pair of black leggings with green aliens on them, and a pair of blue ankle socks. He dressed himself as quickly as he possibly could. Then he grabbed Dipper's card off his bed and ran out of the room, heading for Cosmic's next door.

His blond hair bounced behind him as he kicked open the door to his half-demon friend's room.

"WAKE THE FUCK UP!" He screeched, ducking to dodge an alarm clock that was immediately thrown at his face.
"BITCH WHAT THE F U C K WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE AT TEN IN THE GODDAMN MORNING." Cosmic screamed. Her hair was a tangled, fluffy mess and her black oversized My Chemical Romance band t-shirt was twisted half way around her torso, revealing a pair of black activewear shorts. "GET THE FUCK UP MOTHERFUCKER" Bill threw his card at the brunette's face. "FUCK YOU." She read the card and scowled. "Ugh fine." Cosmic rolled out of bed and dragged herself over to her dresser. She pulled out a black and white checkered flannel, a pair of jeans, and pulled them on. "Alright let's go you sappy shithead." She teased, ruffling her friend's hair. Bill flipped off his equally short demon friend.

When they got downstairs, they both pulled on their shoes. Bill, a pair of black Vans with yellow triangles on the sides, and Cosmic, a pair of worn out black Converse with green laces. Bill grabbed the keys to the Shack and Cosmic grabbed her phone just in case they ran into trouble on the way.

As the pair walked into the forest, they noticed that a trail of yellow rose petals had been strewn across the ground in a path leading to a tall pine tree. Cosmic snorted. "Classic Dipper." "Don't insult my man." "I wasn't, bitch." "No you." "...the fuck?" "Whatever."

When they reached the end of the rose petal-laden path, they saw a little note written in the same ink as the first stuck in between the needles of one of the tree branches. "Ooh, there's another!" Cosmic squealed. Bill whacked her on the arm. "sHuT uP." He slid the paper out from between the needles and unfolded it. He held it out so they could both read it.

So you've found my little hint
Good job my dear
Now for your next clue
Go to the place where gnomes are near

Hint: Go to the gnome caves and talk to the elder gnome

"Ugh, we have to talk to those annoying little goblins?" Cosmic groaned in annoyance. "I guess so. But it's for my Pinetree so I'm just going to grin and bear it. I want to see him soon." Bill said with equal emotion. "Alright then." They began walking deeper into the forest, occasionally stopping to let the brunette demon gently part the branches of the overgrown stretch of trees with her magic. Soon, they made it to the rainbow-barfing gnome infested caves. The little creatures scuttled around completing random tasks, bumping into the two demons every few seconds. "HEY, LITTLE SHITS. WHICH ONE OF YOU TINY MOTHERFUCKERS IS THE ELDER?! I NEED TO CONVERSE WITH HIM." Bill screamed, alarming and grabbing the attention of every gnome in a fifty foot radius of himself. "Bill! Don't be fucking...rude!" Cosmic scolded, flicking him upside the head and immediately apologizing to the gnomes on behalf of her blonde best friend. "Ow..."

A tall (well, for a gnome at least) bearded gnome stepped forward out of the silent crowd and pulled a little note out of his patchy crimson robe. "I believe I have what you're looking for." He said slowly, because you know, he's old. "Mhm, yeah yeah, just give me what my boyfriend left for me." Bill snapped, snatching the note from the old creature and rolling his eyes. Suddenly the elder gnome snapped and whipped out a long tree branch, whacking the blonde upside the head with it. "Your friend was right. Fucking rude little shit." The elder grumbled. Bill gaped at him and held his head, too shocked and in pain to retaliate as Cosmic not-so-silently died of laughter next to him. "I don't know why he's dating you of all people. He was such a nice boy too, saying 'please' and 'thank you'. Kids these days." The gnome growled softly and walked away, leaving all the others to get back to their daily lives. "thANK- yOU- hAH!" Cosmic managed to wheeze out through her laughter. She doubled over and fell on the ground nearly crying from laughing so hard. "Shut up." Bill whispered softly and kicked her gently.

A few minutes later, the pair was on their way again after reading Dipper's note, which said:

You're almost there, sweetie!
Are you ready for the final clue?
Come to the caves
Where Mabel and I shrunk and grew
(sorry I had nothing else)

Hint: Crystal Caves

The walk to the caves was silent most of the way. Something was off. The brown haired half-demon was a bit worried after the last ordeal. She wasn't sure what was going on with her best friend, but she was determined to find out. "Bill, something's wrong. I can tell. What is it?" She asked softly, looking over at the sad faced dream demon. "Cosmic, what if that old gnome guy was right? What if Dipper's too good for me? What if I'm too mean and he's just pitying me by staying with me?" Bill mused quietly. Cosmic grabbed his hand gently as they walked. "Bill, honey, if that was true, why would we be out here? Of course he loves you, of course you're good enough for him. He did all this for you because he's incredibly in love with you." She soothed. "You really think so?" "Duh, why would I have any reason to lie to you about that?" Suddenly, Bill hugged her by the waist tightly, face in her shirt. "Thank you. I...thanks for that. I don't say that enough." She awwed silently and hugged him back. "I'm your best friend, no need to thank me. You're welcome though." He hugged her tighter and then pulled away. Bill wiped away a few stray tears. "I don't deserve you." "Bullshit. Absolute horse fuckery." Cosmic countered. Bill laughed a bit. "Alright, let's get going. We've been keeping Pinetree waiting a bit too long, in my opinion." He giggled.

The two close friends set off again in the direction of the crystalline caves, happy and relieved. They soon reached their destination, seeing green rose petals turn into blue ones upon their arrival. "Ready to see 'the love of your life'?" Cosmic giggled and air-quoted. "Ready as fuck." Bill stuck his tongue out at her. They descended into the cave, following the flower path to the fluffy headed Pines boy. Along the way, Mabel popped out of the shadows and joined their little group. "Hey guys! Heading over to bro-bro, I'm assuming?" Mabel said excitedly. "Hey Mabes! Yep, that's the whole reason we're here!" Cosmic grinned. She fist bumped her sweater-loving brunette friend. "Oh hi Shooting Star!" Bill smiled. "Hey Dorito Man!" Mabel smirked back.

They stepped down the natural stairs into a beautiful grotto with a small heart-shaped water pool and vines and flowers growing out of every crack in the cave. Bill and Cosmic gasped. Bill gasped louder when he saw the man he'd come all this way for standing in front of the heart pool, smiling softly at the little demon. "Hey babe." Dipper greeted gently. Bill ran up to him and hugged him hard, planting little kisses all over his face. "Hi baby."

"So you're probably wondering why I brought you here." Dipper said, rubbing the back of his neck. "Well, I figured today's as good as any day to tell you how I really feel." "...and what's that?" Bill asked semi-nervously. Dipper carefully got down on one knee in front of his boyfriend. He took out a glittering gold ring with the letters B and D intertwined on top with a triangle and and a pinetree engraved on the sides. Everyone collectively gasped and Cosmic whipped out her phone to record the proposal. "Bill, we've been through so much together. Sure, we started off a bit rocky, but that was just a protective cover up to hide how amazing and sweet you really are. You're the best boyfriend I could ever ask for and I couldn't be happier with you by my side. I will always love you and I hope you will always love me too. That's why I want to ask you today, Bill Cipher, will you do me the wonderous honor of being my loving husband?"

Bill started to tear up as he threw himself onto Dipper and yelled "Yes, yes, yes a million times yes! I love you I love you I love you!" Dipper giggled happily and hugged back. After three thousand cheers and happy screaming from the two girls who were watching the whole scene play out, Bill peeled himself off of his now-fiance and let Dipper slip the beautiful ring onto his ring finger. They kissed slowly and lovingly, enjoying each other's company. Mabel took out her pink Polaroid and snapped what could've been a billion pink glitter bordered pictures as they locked lips. Cosmic almost filled up her entire phone storage with photos. Neither of the boys cared. They just basked in the everlasting love of each other's embrace.
