Dipper was born blind and even though he always has Mabel there to help him he doesn't like asking for help and always does the things he can on his own.
One day though a new kid comes to his school and unlucky enough to have all his classes with t...
I sat just outside the front door of the school waiting for Mabel so we could walk home since she's always late for the bus. Today she seems to be extremely late though it feels like it's been a hour. Though I can't particularly tell. I sat for quite a while longer and still no Mabel. I sighed. She forgot didn't she? I thought just as I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned to face the person. "Mabel?" I questioned, that tap too gentle to be Mabel. "Uh.. no, it's William..." he said "Oh what's up William?" I asked. "What're you doing out here still?" He asked, concern laced in his voice. "Oh just waiting for my sister so we can walk home." I said with a fake smile. "Uh... but it's two hours after school ended..." he said. "Don't worry she'll notice I'm not there eventually." I said calmly, Mabel generally forgot and she'd come get me by supper. "Cmon I'll take you home." He said his voice sounded like he was not going to change his mind. "It's fine I'll just wait, it should be soon anyway." I said refusing his offer. William didn't say anything grabbing my wrist and pulling me up from my seat and pulling me behind him. "What were you doing at school this late?" I asked curious. "Oh, I don't have a place to stay so I was talking to the principal and he told me to ask a friend to stay at there house for awhile." He said. "You can stay at my house if you'd like..." I offered. "Really!? That'd be awesome! Where do you live?" He said happiness evident in his voice. "I live at the mystery shack." I said. "Away we go!" He said like a child and I couldn't help but laugh lightly. He was still holding my wrist as we walked and he slowly slid his hand into mine. I couldn't help but let a smile creep onto my face.

"We're here Dipper!" William said as I heard the snap of fingers. I ignored it as William helped me up the the porch stairs. William still held my hand as i heard him knock on the door and I could hear heavy footsteps coming towards the door. The door creaked open. "Who's this Dipper?" A less gruff voice, definitely Ford said. "It's my friend William and I was wondering if he could stay over for awhile." I asked. "Yeah... just keep him out of the basement." Ford said as I heard him walk away. I pulled him inside avoiding walls and objects based of memory. I pulled him to the base of the stairs, letting go of Williams hand to feel for the chair Ford built in to take me up the stairs but before I could find it I felt what seemed to be Williams hand pull me down onto his lap. I felt heat rise to my cheeks as I realized he was sitting in the chair and he pulled me on to his lap. I felt the chair move I couldn't get the blush on cheeks to go away. The chair came to a stop and William helped me off of his lap. "Are you okay? Your face is red." He asked "Y-yeah!" I said surprised he didn't know what a blush was, maybe he thinks it's a fever. I pulled him into my room and let go of his hand. Me and Mabel had gotten separate rooms when we came back... "Hey Dipper where's the other old man in this photo." He asked "Oh after we came back shortly after summer because our parents died a car crash, Stan had already been kicked out of the shack and wasn't able to take care of us legally so Ford said he'd take care of us but it's been 3 years now and we still haven't seen Stan considering Ford said he'd shoot him if he came near us..." I explained. "Oh sorry... well I like this photo of younger you and Mabel. You guys seem close in this photo." He said. "We're far from it now..." I mumbled.
