Valentine's Day

Isabella

I peek over the top of Phineas' fence and sigh. I was hoping to have a moment alone with him. But, sadly, Ferb is in the yard with him. Ferb glances over, sees me, and somehow realizes that I want to be alone with Phineas. He stands up and walk into the house, telling Phineas he needs something to drink. I make a mental note to thank Ferb later and push open the gate. "Hey, Phineas! Whatcha doin'?"

"Oh hey, Isabella. I was just trying to figure out what to do today. Hey have you seen-"

"Oh Phineas don't go there today. He's right there!" I point up to the tree where Perry is napping. "How about we go to a movie. After all it is Valentine's Day" I smile my cutest smile.

"Oh right! I forgot about Valentine's Day. I have a surprise for my valentine but it's not until after lunch so... Sure! We can go see a movie. Ferb can get everything ready, can't you Ferb?" Ferb walks out of the house and gives a thumbs up. "Great! What do you want to see Isabella?"

On the outside, I keep up my cheery appearance but on the inside I'm falling apart. I can't believe he has a valentine that's not me! I knew I shouldn't have waited until Valentine's Day! "Let's see

A Valentine Wish. I hear it sounds awesome."

Apparently, Phineas hear the drop in tone in my voice, because he says, "Is something wrong Isabella? Don't you have something for your valentine?"

"Oh, pshh, yeah! It's at my house. I am going to give it to him later."

"Well, you can do it at our Valentine's Day party!"

"Great." When Phineas goes in the house to tell his mom where he's going, I hang my head. Ferb comes over and puts his hand on my shoulder to comfort me.

Phineas

I walk back out to the yard, even though my heart is slowly breaking. Clearly, I'm not her Valentine. She wouldn't keep that from me, would she? I regain my composure as I'm walking towards her. "Ready to go?" I hope she can't tell that I'm disapointed.

"Yup!" We wave good-bye to Ferb as we walk out of the yard. There's an awkward silence as we walk. It's probably only awkward for me. When we get to the movie theater, I pay for the tickets, we get popcorn and go into the theater. The movie starts up with the opening credits and Behind These Hazel Eyes and I almost tear up because I feel the same way. I try not to look at Isabella so I concentrate on the movie. It's about a girl who is convince the guys she likes isn't going to ask her out for Valentine's Day and she gets one wish and she wishes he would ask her out but it turns out he's a jerk and her best guy friend likes her and he asks her out in the end. We stand up and my legs feel like jelly. I see that neither of ate any popcorn so I pick it up to throw it away. I think that Isabella got that song stuck in her head because she is humming it. I wish she was singing it. She has such a beautiful voice.
