Chapter 5
Cocoa. Sweet cocoa.
Quiet. Then something drifting across closed eyelids.
"Mmmmphhh." Dipper smacked his lips and opened his eyes.
The DVD had finished and was in screensaver mode, Godzilla silently spitting flame across Tokyo, looping forever, asking for Play or Features. He closed his eyes again, because he was so comfy and cozy with the blanket...blanket? Around his...his waist?
What the?
Dipper lifted his head a few inches and looked around.
There was Wendy, asleep again, almost closer than last time if that was possible. Her pretty face just inches from Dipper's. He would have stared longer but he was very interested in looking at what he thought he felt was around his waist...no...it can't be...
Her arm. Her arm was around his waist as they both lay on the bed side by side on their tummies, her right hand holding his right side.
She was holding him, like...like a teddy bear. Or a boyfriend.
Wait a second Dipper old boy, don't jump to conclusions. There must be another explanation if Wendy said she doesn't ...think of me that way.
He looked back up at her face. I must find out the truth, does she really like me? She never made a move last night. He was fixated on her kissable lips, lips that were breathing cocoa.
"Wendy?" He whispered.
Nothing.
"Wendy?" he moved just slightly, enough to jostle her like the night before.
"MmmmDippermmmcomere..." He suddenly was aware of how strong she was as she pulled him towards her.
She kissed him. On the lips.
Wow! Dipper didn't care at that moment if she was awake or not, he was going to enjoy this kiss. She started it so there was nothing wrong with him...keeping it going. His heart started racing and he was not only fully awake now, he was in heaven!
When she pulled back, he kissed her back. Then he whispered:
"Wendy, oh how I've loved you!" and gently kissed her again.
Dipper saw her smile when he pulled back, but...her eyes were still closed. "Love you too..." and again her arm pulled him in for another kiss. He kissed her but now began to feel...uneasy.
Her eyes are closed. She ...is not conscious is she? But...she is saying my name! She must be dreaming about me, and knows in her dream she is kissing me and seems ok with it, and even said she loves me too!
Dipper now began to be unsure of what to do. Here he was with the girl he loved, her arm around him, telling him she loved him too and...kissing him, but...he had to stop. She wasn't doing this consciously.
I must know the truth!
"Wendy...Wendy... wakeup!"
She started snoring.
"Wendy! Wendy?" he began to gently shake her shoulder. Her eyebrows scrunched together and she began smacking her lips and breathing deeper.
"hmmmmm. Ugh. "
She opened her eyes and squinted at Dipper.
"Hi Wendy. We fell asleep again." He tried to smile casually and pretend it was no big deal that her arm was around him.
Wendy began to push up on her arm to sit up and realized where arm was.
"What? Oh, sorry Dipper. I must have rolled over in my sleep, I have long arms and they just go everywhere." She yawned and sat up.
