"Hwaah! Total domination! I am the master of Attic Stuff Mini-Golf! From the mighty Swiss Alps! To the badlands of Dipper's old laundry where man fears to tread!" I giggled as Mabel yelled out her victory and put down my golf club. "Alright, let a pro on the field, or floor. Whatever." Dipper said lining up his shot. He hit the eyeball very hard sending it across the room until it crashed through the window. "Ah, my head! It hit me right in the head!" I bit my lip and looked from the hole laughing at him. "Yes! Stan shot. Is that legal?" Dipper asked looking waddles who was eating our score cards. "The judge says it's out of bounds!" Mabel yelled. "You're out of bounds!" Dipper yelled back lightly jabbing Mabel in the stomach with his golf club. "Hey! Watch it!" She yelled back jabbing him in his stomach and it went back and forth until the clock started ringing. "Hey, Dipper, Y/N , I gotta go hang out with Candy and Grenda tonight."  I nodded. "Aw, again? You can't leave mid-game." I smiled softly at what Dipper was saying, kind of hurt though because I knew I could have joined in. "Don't be silly. I'm not leaving. My friends are coming to me!" My eyes widened. "Oh no." I mumbled. "Wait, what? Oh no. No no no. Sleeping bags?" Dipper said looking at the sleeping bags. "Rom-Coms?!" I yelled looking at the romantic comedies on the floor. "Calling All Boys: Preteen edition?!" Dipper said looking at the game. "You're not having a-" Before he could even finish the door burst open and Candy and Grenda stood there grinning. "SLEEPOVER!" They yelled in unison. I slowly walked towards the door avoiding them. "Oh no." Dipper said grabbing my hand sending a wave of tingles up my arm. "If I have to endure it, so do you." I groaned and we walked over to his bed to look through the journal. 

"Okay, so how much do you like boys?" Mabel said looking at the two girls. "So much!" Grenda yelled out. "Boys make me think about kissing!" I pulled a pillow over my face. "Candy!Oh my gosh!" Grenda said before Candy yelled out ''Ow'' in paint. "We are so crazy tonight!" Mabel yelled before screaming. Then they all joined in. I pushed the pillow over my ears and looked at Dipper. 'How?!" I mouthed to him while he chuckled lightly. "Who wants to smear makeup on my face?" Grenda said pulling out a bag. "Ugh, you're already so beautiful, Grenda. What would be the point?" I took the pillow off my ears and watched them. "Beautiful! Beautiful!" Grenda yelled punching the floor. Dipper threw his pillow down. "Arrrrrrgh" Mabel! Do you think you can do this somewhere else?! You're laughing at frequencies only dogs should hear!" Dipper said looking from me to his sister. "Come on, it's not that bad. Right Y.N?" She looked at me and I bit my lip. "It kind of is." I said slowly. "You know what they both need!" Grenda yelled, Mabel gasped. "A Makeover?" Candy grabbed my arm and pulled me onto the floor while Grenda grabbed Dipper. "AHGH!" We both screamed in unison. 

"I look..Like a clown." I said holding onto my pillow and blanket walking out of the attic room. "You look fine." Dipper said wiping off the lipstick from his mouth. I groaned before doing the same. "Hey, Soos, can we sleep in your break room tonight?" I asked looking at Soos. "Of course, dudes." He said opening a door to show a very cramped room with hazardous pipes and stem. "You just gotta make your body go like a video game puzzle block. Beebity boop boop boop beep beepity boop bop boop boop." He got into the room. "The trick is to hold perfectly still." He then started to try and rest his head but burnt it on the pipes. "I think we'll find somewhere else..." Dipper said going towards the front door. 

We laid under the stars and looked up. "Ah....sleeping under the stars...not bad." I smiled and then looked at the wolf that was coming closer to us. "Uh Dipper?" I said before it started biting at his leg. "Aaaah!! Get off! Aah! Get away!" He yelled. I looked up at the window and saw Mabel and her friends singing and jumping around. "Lalalalala girls!" They sang and then I looked down at Dipper with the wolf. "This is still better." I said laying down as the wolf calmed down a little. "You don't like sleepovers do you?" Dipper asked looking at me. I shook my head. "I never really had friends to have them with, and I'm not really into all of the things Mabel's into." I said with a small laugh. "You're not boy crazy." I shook my head. "Nope, I'd rather sit down with a good crime book than one about boys and how a girls life changed when she met one guy." I said looking from the stars to his eyes. "Yeah, I prefer not having to listen to them talk about guys all night long." I nodded in agreement. "So how come you never had friends?" I bit my lip. "I cant stand Pacifica and thats who everyone loves. I don't really hang out anywhere but the shack and at school it's mostly about boys so I stick to myself." I said rubbing my arms. "I'm a loner there." I said with a small laugh. "Goodnight Y/N." He said turning over. "Goodnight Dipper." I said pulling the blanket over me and closing my eyes.

Throughout the night I kept waking up to horrible things happening to Dipper, a bird was trying to eat his tongue, the wolf was back and brought it's babies and tried chewing his leg but nothing was happening to me. It was almost as though they didn't see me. "It's so cold." Dipper said shivering. "Here have my blanket, I'm warm." I said covering him and laying back down. 

Me and Dipper walked into the attic and he fell into his bed, he had a black eye and twigs in his hair. "Hey, brother! Want any of this leftover pizza? It's got glitter on it." I laid down on her bed and just looked at them both. "Mabel, last night an owl tried to ear his tongue." I said to her. "Ha ha! That's great!" Dipper stood up from his bed. "No, it's not great! This!" He yelled looking at the dirty and wreaked room. "Is impossible to live with!" I sat up now kind of worried about what was about to happen. "What? I'm delightful to live with! Get ready to be poked by the fun stick! Boop!" She yelled poking him with a stick. "Ah!" He yelled slapping it out of her hand. "Mabel, I've had it with the fun stick! You've totally wrecked our room. And-" He gasped. "Oh no! Our mini-golf course!" Mabel giggled. "Heh heh heh, yeah. Grenda sure loves breaking things." I shook my head. "Mabel, you guys need t lay down some ground rules." I said standing up. "If we're all gonna be living in this room together." I finished and looked at Dipper. "First of all, no sleepovers." Dipper said. "What?! Well if I can't have sleepovers, then you can't keep me up every night with your summer reading!" She yelled back at him. "How does reading keep you up?" I tilted my head. "Well you do, do that thing where you click your pen all the time or talk to yourself." I said slowly. "Well, at least my braces don't whistle when I breathe!" He said to Mabel standing in front of her. "At least I wash my clothes once in a while." She said picking up underwear with the stick. "Washing clothes is a waste of time, I'm a busy guy!" "Meow Meow Meow." She said. "Alright if you meow one more time-." She did it again and he started yelling again but meaning it this time. "Okay, that's it! That's the final straw! Maybe we shouldn't share a room anymore" I stepped back not wanting to get caught in this. "Wah...uh...well maybe we shouldn't!" Mabel said turning to him. "Fine by me." He said to her. "Double fine by me!" I sighed. "Guys come on." I said to them. "We'll have to talk to Stan." Dipper said walking downstairs.

"Grunkle Stan, we want different rooms." Dipper said standing in front of the TV. I stood in the door way folding my arms across my chest and watching them. "Ha! And I want a pair of magic money pants. It's not gonna happen." I giggled a little. "Magic Money pants...?" Mabel asked confused. "Come on, Grunkle Stan. Can't we work something out?" Dipper said to him. "Look kid, there's my room and the attic. That's it. What do you think, there's some kinda 'secret hidden room' in the shack?" He said laughing until we heard a loud crashed. "Dudes! I found some kind of secret hidden room in the shack!" Soos yelled before the twins ran past me and following the sound of Soos's voice. 

"Okay, so I was cleaning up behind this bookcase when Boom! Mystery door! This old shack if full of weird secrets." He said opening the door letting everyone in. "Whoa-hoh!" Dipper said walking around. "Classy.." Mabel said. Just as me and Stan walked in Dipper started talking. "Experiment 78? Grunkle Stan, what is this place?" Stan shrugged. "I don't know. Just another room I gotta clean up now." I looked at him and he took a pair of glasses off a tale and put them in his jacket. "This carpet is amazing!" Mabel yelled making snow angels. "Yeah, if you're into things that are terrible." Stan said laughing. "Problem solved, I'll move in here!" Dipper said grabbing a key. "What? Why do you automatically get the room? We both saw it at the same time." I rolled my eyes and walked out knowing another fight was going to start. 

A few hours later I came back from a walk and walked into the attic seeing Dipper throwing up into the toilet. "Erm you okay?" I asked before he ran out punching himself in the stomach. "Get out! Get out!" He yelled, I slowly backed away out of the attic and back down the stairs. "It's always better if I don't ask." I said going to find Stan. I walked into the kitchen and he was eating an omelet. "Hey Stan." I said sitting down and going through the newspaper. "Hey kid." I smiled. "I never knew you had two sets of glasses." I said remembering the ones he picked up. "I forgot about them." He said before finishing his food. "Mm! Those cannibals are onto something. I taste delicious!" I giggled and Mabel ran in. "Grunkle Stan!" She yelled. "What's the word, Mabel?" He said looking at her. "That's right. It's me.." She said pushing hair behind her ear. "Mabel. If ya like that omelet you'll love this! A sandwich made out of rocks!" She said pulling out a sandwich with rocks in and giving it to Stan. "Candy rocks?" He asked. "Nope, regular rocks." I frowned looking at her. What was she doing? "Keep that up and I'll be giving your brother this key. "Ha ha! I mean, darn." Then Dipper ran into the room. "Hey Grunkle STan! Your face looks like a butt!" I stood up and put his plate in the sink. "What?" I asked looking at them both. They were acting so weird. "Break stuff is so much fun, I am Dipper and I stink!" He said kicking the oven and kicking bottles. "Mabel's gone bananas! Sing! Zow! Ballow!" Mabel yelled pouring cereal out of the box and everywhere. "Well this is gettin' weird." Stand said leaving the room. "Wait! Are you gonna dock Mabel points?!" Dipper yelled. "Dipper should lose all of his points." Mabel yelled back. "This is weird, I'm out." I said going to the gift shop. 

"Hey Soos, what's up? Have you seen my?" I looked at Soos and he was chewing a shirt. "Uh I'll come back later." I said leaving again and going outside. "Today couldn't get anymore weird." I said looking up and seeing Robbie in front of me, only there were two of him. "ROBBIE?!" I yelled rubbing my eyes but when I opened them there was only one. "What's going on with you?" He said looking at Wendy who was coming out of the shack. "Weird day, have fun." I said as they walked off together. 

"What?! No! No no no!" I heard Mabel yell from upstairs as she was being dragged up there by her friends. "Dipper what's going on with you two." I said looking at him as he walked off. I ran up the stairs and into the attic. "Do you mind if I borrow her for a second?" I said looking at Mabel. I took her hand and dragged her outside the room. "What is going on with you and your brother?!" I asked looking at her, she looked uncomfortable and kept rubbing her arms and sweating. "Are you sick Mabel?" I said feeling her forehead. "No I'm fine." She stuttered before smiling. "Mabel! We need to talk about boys!" Grenda yelled pulling us back in. "No." I said standing up. "I don't do this sort of thing." I said standing up and backing away. "We all know you're in love with Dipper!" Candy said looking at me, Mabel looked at me and I scoffed. "What?! No." I said running out and out of the room before bumping into Dipper. "Sorry Dipper!" I said before moving out of the way. "No Y/N! It's me Mabel." I looked at him. "Dipper that's not funny." I said looking at him. "No seriously I'm Mabel, you have to go and stop them from telling Dipper my secrets. We changed bodies on that stupid rug!" That was when Stan came up and I ran back into the attic. "Sleepover time!" I said sitting down next to Mabel who was really Dipper. "Dipper I know that's you." I whispered to him. "What are you doing? You hate this thing." I smiled at him. "I'm helping you out." I said before looking at the two girls. 

I smiled as they closed the book 'Wolfman bare chest' "Finally it's over." I said looking at Mabel. "Now for the 38 sequels." Candy said pulling out the books. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" We yelled together in unison as they began to read them again. 

I went downstairs and saw Dipper holding the key. "Dipper won?" I asked with a small smile. "Yeah, Stan is glad he stood up to him." I smiled. "That's great! At least you have your own room." I said before 'Mabel' ran downstairs. "Stan! It's me, Mabel! I'm doing things you hate!" She said flipping tables. "It's over, Dipper. Stan gave you the room." 'Dipper' said giving 'Mabel the key. "This is starting to hurt my head." I said looking at them both. I ran into the room with them as they continued fighting. Fake Mabel called down Grenda and Candy and yelled makeover to get them to hold Dipper's body down. 

"One final touch!" Mabel yelled rubbing her feet on the carpet before touching Dippers nose and making everyone swap bodies. "Ah my body!" The real Dipper yelled out grabbing the key from his pocket. "I'ma a genius, ha ha! Ugh." He said wiping off the make up from his face. "Alright, Mabel. The room is mine!" I smiled and stood up. "Finally everyone is back to normal." I said looking at the twins. "Wait, hold on here. What just happened?" Grenda asked. "I barley understand it. All I know is that if you shuffle your feet on this carpet, you can switch bodies or whatever." Mabel said to her. Candy stood up and began to shuffle her feet. "Zip, zap." She said tapping Dipper's nose. "NO!" I yelled before they switched bodies. "Guys please this is starting to hurt my head." I said running out of the room and going to find fresh air. 

"You all back to normal?" I asked as I saw Dipper making his bed in his new room. "Yes." He said with a laugh. "All back to normal." I sat on the sofa in the room and smiled at him. "Good because I was starting to get a serious headache." He chuckled and sat down next to me. "A man and his own space." Stan said in the doorway. "That's right. Finally." I smiled and stood up. "So what are you gonna do with this old thing?" Stan said pointing at the rolled up carpet. "Get rid of it." Dipper said. Stan picked it up laughing nervously. "Haha! You got it! Yeesh, this carpets ugly." I smiled and walked out of the room behind him. "Goodnight Dipper." I shut the door and Stan walked away. I followed behind him and hid whenever he turned around. He went into the gift shop and started hitting the broken vending machine. "Y/N!" Stan stopped and span around when he heard my name being yelled. I quickly ran up the stairs. "What's up Mabel?" I asked out of breath. "You're staying in here right?" I nodded and got into the sleeping bag on the floor. "Hey, um. Do you want to have a sleepover?" Dipper asked walking into the room. "FORE!" She yelled swinging her golf club and the ball smashed through the window. "Ahhh!Why am I even our here at night?" We all laughed and Dipper laid on the floor next to me.
