What We Lost

Summary:

What Dipper Pines thought was a normal day in the woods was actually the day that he would lose all the memories he treasures.

Notes:

Hi! So this is my first multi-chapter fic for this pairing and I swear I'm not good with multi-chapter fics.
Also, I got my basic knowledge about amnesia through wikipedia so I highly apologize in advance if there are things written here that are totally inaccurate.
I don't have beta, btw, so forgive me for any grammar errors and misspellings.

Chapter 1: Prologue

Chapter Text

He was falling.

The scenery blurred around him as his body was nearing the surface of the water. He tried clawing the air hoping that something would sag on his trembling hands and stop his fall, but there was nothing. Tears welled on the corner of his eyes as his life flashed right before him showing his successes, defeats, cherished moments and  loved ones.

He saw his parents beside him every time he was sick, comforting him so that he would feel better. He saw his best friend riding the golf cart with him, modified for it to be able to fly. He saw his childhood crush watching crappy horror movies with him and laughing obnoxiously. He saw his great uncle telling him how proud he was of him for learning how to stand up for himself. He saw his sister defending him from bullies that made fun of his interests and odd birthmark.

And then he saw the demon he swore he would love until the end of time.

And now he would lose all of them. And now he would lose him.

He closed his eyes as he let the tears that overwhelmed him flow out while he silently accepted his impending fate. With a loud splash, he fell straight into the deep, freezing water. And with the air knocked out of his lungs, his brain was deprived of the much needed oxygen, making him lose his consciousness and probably, his life.
