A/N: I'm one of that 0.0000001% that ships Dipeon/GidDip, and not even one sided. Wanted to make a drabble, so yeah. It's nearly 2 a.m., so please bear with me. Holy cow I'm writing fluff...

Summary: Age doesn't matter, but apparently, Dipper Gleeful is very concerned over height.

Rating: K+ because it's closer to T than K

Pairing: Dipeon/GidDip

Height

Dipper Gleeful was very much aware of the saying, "Age is nothing but a number." He heard it plenty of times from Mabel ("Brother, age is nothing but a number! Numbers don't matter in love!" "Ewww! You're too old for me!") who was supposedly a total 'romantic'. He scoffed at the irony.

'Mabel Gleeful, the day you date a guy for what he has in the inside will be the day the apocalypse will occur.'

Apparently, the apocalypse will happen today.

He looked away from his food to across the table at the blinking boy, who looked as confused as he was. He ignored Mabel's rambles over how great her new 'boyfriend' was. Something was off. Very off.

Why would Mabel even like him?

He wasn't...attractive...much...ANYWAY.

He wasn't a mystical creature.

No, they usually end up being her servants...

So why was this boy special?

"Oh brother! You won't believe how happy we've been together!"

Dipper nearly choked on his dinner.

'Happy? You practically carry him on a leash!'

Sure, his twin looked happy. But that was usually the 'norm' for any boy. And if this boy looked happy, confusion was probably how he showed his happiness.

'I give it a day for them to break up.'

"I CAN'T BELIEVE HE BROKE UP WITH ME!"

'Called it.'

"Yes Mabel, I can't believe the boy you practically carried on a leash broke up with you."

"I know, right!? After everything I gave him!"

And so after several images of Gideon Pines being burned, Mabel asked for a 'special favor'.

Which brings us to his current situation. Mabel wanted him to beat him up, Dipper thought there should be another punishment. He regretted suggesting this. Mabel grinned evilly, and gave a 'punishment'.

Now thinking, he wasn't sure if the punishment was for him or for Gideon.

Gideon, on the other hand, looked quite scared. After being cornered without his cousin to yell for, he was starting to fear for the worst.

"Look at you. You're so innocent." Dipper smirked, taking the boy's cap off and ruffling his hair. Gideon glared in response.

"Give it back!" He tried to reach it, but Dipper was much taller. He held it higher and laughed. "Alright but first, close your eyes."

"Why would I-"

"I SAID CLOSE THEM!"

Gideon groaned in protest, but shut his eyes. Dipper frowned and bent down to reach his lips.

'Why are you so short?!' He fumed. He wasn't going to go any lower, either. "Try to get taller..."

"Ummm..."

"I said get taller!"

"Alright, Alright!" Gideon sighed and with eyes shut, stood on his tippy toes.

Still not working. Dipper growled.

"YOU'RE TOO SHORT!"

Gideon jumped, eyes widened. Why was Dipper trying to k-

"STOP BEING SO SHORT!"

He threw the boy's cap and walked away, leaving a laughing Pacifica to see the sight, and a blushing Gideon.

Mabel waited outside Gideon's house, grinning from ear to ear. "How'd it go?"

"Shutupandagedoesn'tmatterbutheightdoes." He grumbled as he continued walking.

I'M DONE WITH MY LIFE.
