Billdip Week Day Five: Trying on Costumes/Trying to Scare Each Other

Bill was waiting (all day at this point) for Dipper to go tohis room. He was sitting cross-legged on the desk, which was now in the middleof the room. The bed frame was attached to the ceiling and mattress on the floor (a floor covered in wallpaper coincidentally). Thewhole room was in disarray, and frankly Bill was getting impatient, waitingaround for Dipper to get home. He sighed, but then quickly perked up when hesaw the handle to the door beginning to turn…

A grin spread across his features, and he straightened hisbow tie as Dipper entered. The other’s ears twitched slightly when he saw theroom, and then with a sigh just moved to go flop down onto the mattress,completely ignoring Bill.

“Woah, Pine Tree, not gonna say anything about my decoratingskills?” Bill chuckled, walking over to the other, and then tilting his headslightly when all Dipper did in response was give an agitated flick of histail.

“Pine Tree?”

“Not now, Bill.” Dipper replied, his voice muffled as he wasstill lying face down.

“Pine Tree,” Billwhined, poking the other in the arm, and then recoiling quickly when Dipperflinched. He sat down beside the mattress.

“Um, you okay, kid?”

“Leave me alone.”

Bill furrowed his eyebrows then, and with a sharp movement,grabbed the other’s arm, and rolled up his sleeve, not ignoring Dipper’s painedgasp. There were bruises up along his arm, and when Dipper jerked his arm awayfrom Bill, he winced slightly, ears falling flat against his head.

“Dipper, what happened?” Bill said, his tone demanding ananswer.

Dipper finally sat up, turning towards Bill, and the demoncould see the tears forming in the other’s eyes.

“People don’t like me, to put it lightly.” Bill nearlygrowled when he heard Dipper say that, and he moved forward almostinstinctively then, and put his arms around the other. He looked up insurprise.

“Bill?”

“Give me their names,”He hissed,  “I’ll send them to spenddouble eternity in the darkest pits of hell.”

“Double eternity?”

“Triple.” He responded, anger dripping from his tone. Dipper’sears twitched, and he finally cracked a smile, looking up at Bill with largeeyes. He sniffled a bit.

“Thanks.”

“I haven’t even done anything yet, why’re you thanking me?”He asked, confused, but kept his arms around the other. Dipper leaned into him,relaxing a bit, but said nothing in response.

They stayed like that for some time, and eventually Bill hadmoved his hand up to Dipper’s ears, and began petting them. He let out aninvoluntary purr, and then turned beet red.

Bill grinned, and chuckled slightly, only to earn a glarefrom Dipper.

Finally Dipper stood up, and Bill whined slightly when theother moved away from him, only to grin when he heard what the former had tosay.
