LoveSick?... Or SickLove...

Do You Love Me?

Bill POV

Finally, I had been trying for years to get rid of that stupid geezer.

I looked down at Ford. I smiled.

'still alive... But not for long.'

I left pine tree's body and let it fall with a thud.

I felt a little guilty.

'Stay focused'

I picked up the rift from dipper's cold hands.

'Now this is where you come in sixer'

I put the rift back onto the table.

Walking over to sixer I kneel down and materialize an occult knife.

I slide it into his wound, covering it with blood.

His breathing hitches, then slows.

'Wow, he sure is a fighter.'

I remove the knife and walk to the center of the room.

"Layarteb evol yarteb ruoy revol" I chanted. Dragging the knife against the floor.

The knife acted as a paintbrush, the blood as paint.

A ritual like circle was drawn out.

I walk over to the rift, passing dippers body. I glance at it and don't give him another thought.

Besides....

I grab the rift and walk over to my circle.

Smashing the rift, the liquid spills out and forms a X inside the circle.

I step inside the circle and begin levitating.

Dipper POV

"Bill?!" I call out.

Just then the ground began to tremble.

"Bill..." I whisper.

I fly through the ground and end up in the basement.

It was then I saw him. He was covered in blood.

But whose?...

I noticed a hand lying on the ground.

"No..." I whisper.

I follow the six fingered hand with my eyes. I discover the body of Ford.

His breath is slow.

"Ford!"

I run over and kneel by him.

I go to check the wound but my hand phases through.

'That's right... If only I could find...'

I see my body on the ground a few feet away.

'Perfect!'

I re-entered my body.

I crawl to the best of my ability towards ford.

The ground is shaking violently now.

'What is going on?'

Before I could act a blinding light emerges from the center of the room.

I shielded myself from the wind.

When the wind died down I hesitantly looked over.

'No way...'

Bill. In a physical form.

He looked insane. But he wasn't how he looked last time.

He was in his human form.

Something wasn't right.

"PineTree...."

I inhaled a sharp breath.

I was terrified.

This wasn't the bill I knew...

This wasn't the bill...

I loved....

I stood up, shaking slightly.

"B-Bill?..."

He looks over at me and his expression softens.

The insane glint in his eyes fade.

"PineTree?..."

He walks over to me.

Something glistens behind him, but I was unable to see.

"PineTree..."

He teleports us into the forest.

"Why..." I ask.

"PineTree-"

"WHY?!" I yell. My voice breaks.

It's silent.

He puts his hands to my face. I'm too shocked to move. Too scared, too heartbroken.

He's covered in blood. My FAMILY'S blood...

"Isn't the reason why obvious?..." He says.

My eyes start to water.

"Do you... Do you l-love me?..."
I ask. My voice breaking slightly. I'm honestly confused at this point.

"Now Now PineTree..." He whispers.

He leans in and places his lips onto mine.

He removes one of his hands and I feel a sharp pain below my chest.

My breathing hitches as he leans away. Smirking.

"Since when do demons have feelings?..." He says. That insane look in his eyes.

A tear falls down my cheek. The pain spreading throughout my body.

Bill pulls his arm back and I see a knife covered in Crimson blood.

My blood.

I fall to the ground in pain.

But too shocked to scream.

Bill walks closer and kneels down.

He cups my chin and forces me to look at him.

"I never loved you. And I never will. You were just a pawn in a game of everlasting chess. And the only thing I have to say now, is checkmate."

He lets go of my chin and my head falls back down.

He laughs and walks away.

If the pain from my wound wouldn't kill me,

My broken heart would.
