Waking up to someone humming left a small warmth. It was probably one of the careers checking to see if I was still breathing. Opening my eyes I was shocked to see a blonde mess of hair sat at the end of my bed. "Oh you're finally awake Gale" he looked down at me he held onto an apple it turned a bright blue in his hand then faded to dust. I'm going to guess he nicked that from the fruit bowl in here. "Go away how'd you even get in here" I sighed burying my head back into my pillow. "Again I'm a dream demon, also you seem to be getting weaker by the minute" So I wasn't just imagining him. No time to qouestion things anymore. He was right though I felt horrid. Soon I won't be able to leave this bed. "Come on if you made the deal you'd feel way better" he held out his hand. Swatting it away I got out of bed. Hearing him let out a annoyed grunt, I headed to the small kitchen unite and made some tea, want some? I qouestioned through my thoughts to see if he could actually read minds. "Yes I would like some" he replied. Sugar? Milk? "2 and yes" he really could read minds then. Guess nothings going to get past him. "You're right there Gale I'll always be watching" most people would be terrified if someone else could read their every thought but in my position I didn't really see the point. A presence appeared behind me as if to intimidat me. Ignoring him I finished the teas and took a seat at the table placing his tea by the empty chair.

He didn't say a word as he levitated the tea towards himself he didn't even take a seat he just floated in a sitting position daintily crossing his legs. Taking a sip I let out a sigh, without him these last days would have been a breeze but I guess life is just a whole row of hurdles.

"Shouldn't you be getting ready to meet shooting star and pine tree" he breathed. I looked at him confused "Pine twins" he rephrased. Pine twins? Oh Mabel and Dipper so they're twins. "Stay in here ok" I glance at him he didn't reply and kept drinking the tea I made. Gathering some clothes I slipped into the bathroom and changed. It was difficult though soon enough I was done. "Ok so are you going to stay here or..." staring at the blonde he only shrugged. "Well I'm not to friendly with shooting star or pine tree so I'll be watching from afar" he stated. "Why do you use silly names for everyone?" I qouestioned slightly curious. He grinned and tapped his nose. I'm not nosey just curious. "Well see ye Gale literally " he clicked his fingers and again was gone in a blinding white. The mug of finished tea he was floating smashed on the floor.

Escaping from my careers I head to the mystery shack. Green tempting me into the forest yet I stayed on path. "Hey (F/N) Up Here!" Mabel was hanging out of a window waving to me "We'll be right down" she smiled I nodded. Even though it was summer I felt so cold. "What's sup still got that cold " Mabel asked appearing infront of me I nodded. "Hm were to first? What about the forest? " she grinned "Uh I'm not allowed in the forest" I sighed sadly. "Awrh why not? " she frowned "Apprantly it dangerous..." I lied again. "Well you're not wrong there " Dipper finally spoke up. "Dangerous pfft more like fun for adventures " Mabel beamed.

I grabbed tightly onto my bracelet. "Well ok we'll show you around town then" she smiled marching forward. I struggled to keep up but Dipper always seem to keep the same pace as me as if to say no need to push yourself. They showed me round the square, restaurant, shops and finally the arcade. Their were an abnromal amount of signs triangular shaped some even had an eye etched into the middle maybe an old tribal thing. Staring into the claw machine I digged into my pocket. "Omg do you see that cute piggy in there you must get it (F/N) " Mabel had her face pressed against the glass of the machine staring at the piggy plush. "Sure" inserting some coins I started to try and get the plush. eventually after the third go I'd got it.

"Here you wanted it more then me" I smiled passing it to Mabel "Oh Thank you I'll cherish it forever it's so cute" she hugged it tightly making me laugh slightly. I still had one turn left "Hey Dipper anything you'd like?" I asked he turned from the game he was playing "Uh.. " he paused briefly "I don't really mind" he smiled small. Looking around the machine a deer plush was near the front. Crossing my fingers I moved the claw over the deer. It dragged to the box and it then dropped right on the thin plastic edge "D#mn" I muttered. Blue then surrounded it pushing it into the box. I couldn't help but smile. Bill is watching then. Taking it out I shuffled over to were the twins were about to play on a just dance machine. "Here considering Mabel got one I didn't want to leave you out" passing Dipper the the deer he smiled awkwardly rubbing the back of his neck "Thanks". "Hey (F/N) wanna play " she pointed to the machine shaking my head " No thanks I suck at dancing" I replied, it was a struggle to walk let alone dance. "Guess it's you and me Dip" she smirked at her brother. "Urh ok but I'm goanna beat you this time" dipper placed his book and plush down on the side. I sat on the racing games chair next to the machine and watched them dance together bickering between themselves. "Haha beating you again!" Mabel cheered. "No way not again" Dipper panted seeming out of breath.

Even though I was quite weak physically. It was fun watching these two enjoy themselves. This was the most fun I'd had in years I couldn't help but smile.

Then the horrid thought lingered into my mind. What if I went infront of them that would scar anyone. Taking a deep breath I sighed why can't things just be simple.

"Gale what about the deal" turning my head to the voice there he stood smiling towards me leaning on his cane then as a crowd of excited kids passed he was gone again.

Soon it had gotten dark out and we all decided to head home. "So where are you staying? " Dipper asked. "That hotel" I pointed to the tall building at the end of the street. "Ooo we could walk you there " Mabel smiled jumping with energy slightly. "No its fine the mystery shacks in the other direction anyway so you'll just be wasting your time" I tried to reason "You sure?" Dipper raised a suspicious eyebrow. "Yeh I'm fine no need to worry" I smiled as a sweat drop rolled down my forehead. "Ok see you tomorrow then Bye" Mabel waved walking towards the mystery shack. "Bye" I responded watching as they both waved back walking away.

Turning on my heel I slowly walked back to the hotel I felt so tired. "Looking little run down their Gale" looking up there he was floating beside me. "Thought about our deal yet?" his voice was becoming faint as my vison hazed. His blue aurou surrounded me proping me up. I still couldn't properly come to terms with this dream demon. "No dieing on me yet Gale" he sighed.

"Urh " I held at my head. "If you carry this on you'll die sooner then excepted. He pulled out a pocket watch. "So you now know when I'll die too huh? " I asked weakly. "Yup tomorrow at 1:45pm to be exact" he stated bluntly. "t-tomorrow, I was told I had a week not 3 days" my breath hitched. Mabel and Dipper how will they take it? I should really say my goodbyes. Don't want to leave anything behind.

"For a minute there I actually thought you'd consider my deal" Bill scoffed. Shrugging I yawned. Trying to walk I was stopped by his blue glow. "Now, now not so fast" I was levitated upwards with him to the floor I was stationed on. The window smashed into pieces but didn't make any noise or fall to the floor it just floated to the side. We went through the now broken window. He set me down on the floor to my room. "Thanks" I breathed. "well considering I don't have much time to make a deal with you may aswell preserve you as much as possible" he shrugged. That's quite a selfish out look on the matter but I was still thankful. "For a minute there I though you might actually care " I laughed small. "Hahahahaha you crack me up Gale" he started laughing as if I'd told the funniest joke. He wouldn't care much if I went I'm sure. Tired I fell into my bed. Goodnight bill. "Night Gale tomorrow is going to be a splendid day" he replied with energy.
