Hey, world! After seeing Phineas and Ferb: Across the Second Dimension, I sat down at my computer and this story literally wrote itself. Anyway, this is my first fanfic, so reviews would be an awesome way to help my stories get better. Please read and review, but most of all, ENJOY! =)

Disclaimer: I do not own Phineas and Ferb!

"What?" Phineas shouted as he snapped up in bed. He immediately covered his mouth and prayed that he hadn't awakened his green-haired brother, but in vain. Ferb blinked back at him from his bed on the far left side of the room.

"Sorry, Ferb," Phineas muttered, confusion flooding his mind. "I just had the weirdest dream."

When he didn't elaborate, Ferb queried, "What was it about?"

"Well, you see…" The other boy hesitated, not knowing what to say, for once in his life. "Most of the dream was a blur: a man in a lab coat, secret agents, portals… I think, robots… But for some reason the last part is strangely vivid." Phineas paused again and Ferb raised a curious eyebrow. "It's just that… I dreamed that… That Isabella kissed me."

"And?" Ferb's eyes held a knowing glint.

"And what?" Phineas shot back, more bewildered than anything.

The British boy rolled his eyes. "Think about it. Was it a good dream or a bad dream?"

Phineas thought for a moment. He thought about Isabella, her sparkling eyes, her cute purple bow- wait, since when did he think it was cute? - and her strong, but kind personality. Now that Phineas thought about it, Isabella had always seemed to stand out from his other friends and seeing her walk up to him every morning saying "Watcha doin?" always made his day instantly better. He had never realized that these feelings meant anything more than that she was his best friend, but maybe there was something he hadn't seen…

"Well, I guess, now that I think about it… It was kind of a good dream…"

"Then why do you sound so uncertain?" Ferb made his way over to his brother and sat down beside him.

Phineas' eyes widened as a flow of new emotions suddenly rushed through him. "How can I not be afraid? I've never liked a girl before; not like this. What if she doesn't like me back?" Ferb barely suppressed a chuckle at the last comment. "Or even worse… What if she's liked me and I've been neglecting her?"

Phineas buried his face in his hands for a moment, imagining every possible scenario involving Isabella's thought and feelings for him. Or lack there of.

"You know, when you love someone, sometimes you have to take risks," Ferb said solemnly. "Sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn't."

Phineas cocked his head, wondering how Ferb knew so much, but decided to let it go for the time being. Instead he said, "So what should I do?"

"What do you think you should do?"

Phineas stared at his hands for a minute. "I think I need to find out how Isabella feels about me… And whatever the case, I need to do my best to make her happy!"

Ferb just nodded.

The brothers sat there for a few more minutes; Phineas desperately trying to figure out how he would approach Isabella and Ferb wondering how long it would take his oblivious brother to realize the truth about their neighbor.

Finally, Phineas broke the silence. "I can't believe it took some odd dream for me to realize that I feel this way… We live in a strange world, Ferb. A strange world indeed."

Ferb blinked. "Yes, yes we do."
