It was a typical evening at the Mystery Shack. Soos and Wendy had gone home once their shifts were done, Grunkle Stan was watching TV in the living room, and the Pines' Twins were cleaning up after helping in the shack for the day. Dipper was cleaning off the dust from his clothes while Mabel was washing her hair. It was exhausting but worth it for Dipper since he could study more of the journal at night. Sometimes he could study it more on times when the shack was closed. Well, if Stan didn't saddle them with chores for the day.

"Alright," Dipper sighed, "Let's see what Grunkle Stan has in store for tomorrow." He looked at the calender on his side of the room. "Huh. The shack is gonna be...closed?"
Mabel had come out of the shower at that time. "A day off? Neat!" She exclaimed, shaking her head like a dog. "Ack! Mabel!" Dipper shouted, trying to block the water from getting on the journal. "Oops. Sorry," she grinned.

Dipper only shrugged. "It's okay Mabel. I'm just wondering why on a Saturday, where there'd be more tourists to come around than ever, Stan would keep the place closed."
"Why don't we ask?" Mabel brought up. "Never hurts to."

Dipper nodded. "You're right," he agreed, "But we'll need to be subtle about it. I'll go take a shower and then we can ask him."

One Dipper had showered and they were both in their pajamas, the two of them slowly crept downstairs and towards the living room. "Okay, I'll do the talking," Dipper whispered while Mabel held onto Waddles. They walked into the room and saw Stan was watching an old chick-flick (he apparently started getting into them) and drinking soda. It took a bit for him to notice the twins.

"Hey kids!" he grinned, "We sold a lot of junk today! Man it feels good being me!"

Dipper chuckled weakly. "Yeah, it was a good day. So what do you wanna do tomorrow?" Stan gave him a confused look. "Whatdya mean?" he asked. "W-Well it's just that the shack is closed tomorrow so I was wondering if you had plans for us. Y'know, family stuff?" Dipper couldn't read the look on his uncle's face before he took another swig of soda.

"Nah. Nothin' sappy like that. Why don't you two go into town and hang out or something." he offered. "That's so nice!" Mabel replied, giving her uncle a hug before running upstairs with Waddles trotting along behind her. Dipper glanced between where his sister and his uncle before speaking again. "Yeah, thanks Grunkle Stan," he smiled before turning to leave.

"Take care of her, alright?"

Dipper stopped to look back at his uncle who buried his face in a magazine. He was hiding something but Dipper knew he wasn't going to get anything out of him now. "I will," he replied before walking off.

Stan peeked from behind his magazine, making sure Dipper had gone upstairs before setting it down.

"Good."
I don't know how this fic came to be. I just started typing after having the idea in my head for awhile so I just started typing and it just became a thing. I don't know how long the story will be but it should be a decent amount of chapters.

It feels good posting something again. :)
