When Stars Fall

Chapter 1: It Almost Happened

 NB: They are about 17/18 years old in this story... not 12/13

Dipper was lying down on the nicely carpeted floor, with his brown hair brushed across his forehead.

Saying Pacifica's room is decent was an understatement. First and foremost, her room had three stories. Yes. Three stories. Anything is possible with money. Her huge circular canopy bed washed with modern lace curtains and her one hundred and twenty inch flat screen, that she claims was the smallest tv in the entire mansion, was on the second floor.

Her closet, that was three times the size of Dipper and Mabel's room, was on the top floor and she claims that the first floor is just for 'decoration'. That's rich people for you.

"What are you doing down there?" Pacifica purred from the bed causing Dipper to blush uncontrollablly. He loved when she spoke like that. Dipper had fallen from the bed trying to catch the remote Pacifica had thrown for him to catch.

Pacifica decided to join him on the floor and ended up tumbling down and landing on him. Not that she had anything to break her fall, it felt like she had landed on iron.

"Started working out more?"she asked raising an eyebrow.

"Where have you been?" Dipper chuckled.

"Boarding school."

"It's been like three years since you got back. You only went for like a year."

"Not even. Like six months," she mumbled. "My parents realised they needed me for some dumb opening ceremony for their brand new bank."

Pacifica frowned. She didnt like being reminded of her parents even though she lived them, she tried her best to avoid them. Dipper gently brushed his hand on her cheek and she started to smile.

"That's the Pacifica I like to see," he said huskily.

At this moment he wanted to kiss her but he had been friend zoned so many times that he was just confused. Confused when she was flirting with him. Confused when they would skype each other until either of them fell asleep. Did Pacifica like him at all or was she just toying around with him? She got lost in his eyes, magnetically pulling her closer to him. Realizing what was happening, Dipper started moving closer her towards her. Could this be it?

They each tilted their heads and moved in so close that there was no space between them. Their lips almost touched until someone knocked on the door causing them to jump back. Pacifica got up, fixed her probably fake blonde hair and ran to the door.

She opened the door to see her cousin, Star, standing there.
