Hello readers and readresses! Welcome to Batmarcus and I's thirteenth collaboration! This story includes Adam but it does not stem from the New Kid series so you do not have to read that first even though you should. It also has a girl named Vanessa Doofenshmirtz but keep in close mind that it is refering to the one from the Second Dimension, not the First. Otherwise you will be very confused. Also, it you just went back to this when you were told to, you have to review, it's the law.

On an average summer day for Danville people where waking up for an enjoyable sunshiny day. Including the people in the Garcia-Shapiro home. Isabella woke up smiling with her hair frizzed out. She easily shook it back to normal and then got dressed.

She slid down the banister and into the kitchen just as there was a knock at the door. "I'll get it!" She said skipping over to the door. When she opened her door she found a boy with fair skin coal black hair and icy blue eyes a lot like her own. "Oh… hello."

"Hi is this the Garcia-Shapiro home?"

Isabella nodded. "Yes it is; do you need something? I could get my mom if you'd like?"

"I actually wanted to speak to both of you," The boy said carefully.

"Oh… alright, well, come on in then." Isabella said stepping out of the way.

"Thank you very much," He said kindly.

"Isa, who is it?" Vivian called.

"I'm not sure, some boy, says he wants to talk to us."

"Oh well I'll be right down!" She called.

"Okay." Isabella called back as she and the boy took a seat.

"So your Isabella right?" He asked kindly and seeming nervous.

Isabella nodded, "Yeah, what's your name?"

"I'm Adam," He said avoiding his last name as Vivian came down the stairs.

She froze halfway down, her eyes wide. "Adam?"

"Hi," The boy said awkwardly.

"You know each other?" Isabella asked in surprise.

"Well I know him, where is your father?" Vivian said still stunned.

Adam looked down sadly. "He's dead. That's why I came here."

"H... he's dead?" She asked.

Adam nodded trying not to cry. "What's going on?" Isabella asked as her mother came down and started patting the boys back

"Isabella…" Vivian said gently, "this is you're twin brother, Adam Garcia-Shapiro."

Now as you might imagine Isabella very nearly passed out at that. "R-really?"

"Yes, really he is your twin brother," She said.

Isabella started to cry realizing that that meant her dad's dead before she even got a chance to meet him. "I'm sorry to have to tell you both that," Adam said looking away from them.

"You didn't have a choice." Vivian said sadly hugging both of her children.

"Still, I wish I could have come with happier news," Adam said.

Isabella looked up at her mother. "How come I never knew about him?"

"Your father and I split when you were both very young and we agreed it was for the best if we raised you apart and waited to introduce you," Vivian said.

Isabella sighed, "When would you have if this didn't happen."

"About next year," She said honestly.

"You were gonna wait until I was fifteen to tell me about my own twin brother?"

"We thought that was the best age for you both," She said.

"Why did you guys have to keep it a secret in the first place?" Adam asked defensively.

"We just did not want you both to grow up knowing about each other, but not being able to talk we wanted to wait until you could handle it. We also had planned to have you both celebrate your 15th birthday together," She said.

"Shouldn't we get you're other bags Adam?" Isabella asked looking at the backpack like laptop case.

"Well actually this is all I have now," Adam said.

"Then we have some shopping to do." Vivian said simply.

"So I can stay?" Adam asked hopefully

Vivian nodded. "Of course you can."

"Thank you...mom," Adam said slightly awkwardly

"You're welcome, Adam. Isabella, could you show him to the spare bedroom?" Vivian asked.

"Yeah follow me," She said.

She took him to a fairly plain room with a bed, dresser, nightstand, and a closet. Isabella sat down on the bed as Adam unpacked the few things he did have. "So, where did you live before you came?"

"Miami, Florida. It's really hot over there," Adam said pulling out the final piece of clothing in his bag which was a black leather jacket.

"Probably, but it must have been really cool, did you have any friends back in Miami?"

"Yeah a few, but only one that was really important to me and that's James Johnson, who I need to call later," Adam said.

"Any chance I will meet him someday?" Isabella asked hopefully.

"The odds are pretty high he and I were like brothers. When he can visit I'm sure he will, he has family here anyway," Adam said.

"Well, there is a Jeremy Johnson and his immediate family here." Isabella said, she just never thought much of it since Johnson is such a popular surname.

"I think that might be him, but I would not know I was never there when his cousin came to visit," Adam shrugged.

"Oh, well, those are the only Johnsons I know of in Danville." Isabella said. "He's actually my best friends' sister's boyfriend so I know him pretty well."

"Well then I'll have to meet him," Adam said hanging up his jacket and plugging his devices in.

"Yeah, there are lots of people you should meet here: Phineas and Ferb, Buford, Baljeet, Katie, Adyson, Ginger, Gretchen, Holly." She listed off. "There's lots of fun people here in Danville and when I say fun you couldn't imagine what I mean I wouldn't believe me if I simply told you."

"That sounds awesome. You really think that this place is more fun than any other town?" Adam asked.

Isabella nodded, "I guarantee it. Come on, I'll show you, they should be pretty well in to it by now."

"Into what?" Adam asked.

"I don't know; it's different every day." Isabella said. "Do you want to come see or not? They're just right across the street."

"Sure, why not it sounds fun!" Adam said.

He followed Isabella out. "We're heading to Phineas and Ferb's." Isabella told their mom.

"Alright well be back in about two hours and we can go shopping," She said.

"We will." Isabella promised before exiting the house and heading across the street.

"Do you think they'll be okay with me just showing up?" Adam asked.

Isabella nodded, "I'm sure, their gate's always open to anyone." She said and opened the gate. "Hey Phineas, Whatcha doin'?"

"Hey Isabella, we're building a theme park!" A boy with red hair and a triangle head said.

Adam's jaw practically hit the ground as he looked around at what they have so far. "By the way, who's this?" Phineas asked indicating Adam in curiosity.

"Oh this is Adam my twin brother," Isabella said.

"Well, it's great to meet you, Adam." Phineas said walking over with a smile and offering his hand. "I didn't even know Isabella had a brother."

"Neither did I." Isabella said honestly.

"Yeah it's been an odd day," Adam said. "So you guys do this all the time?"

Phineas nodded, "Every day during the summer or any other break, it helps make it a lot more fun. Summer doesn't last forever you know."

"Yeah, but wow!" Adam said.

"Would you like to help us finish?" Phineas offered.

"Can I? It looks amazing!" Adam said.

"Of course you can! Do you happen to have any experience with building?" Phineas asked.

"Some, not this big though," Adam said.

"That's okay, we've worked with someone who tried to hit in a nail using the handle of a hammer." Phineas said. "Come on, I'll show you two what you can help with."


About an hour later they had built a theme park that stretched all across Danville. "This is insane!" Adam said in awe. "How long had you guys been doing this kind of stuff?"

"Years now," Phineas said.

"Well, Isabella, you were right, Danville is more fun than any other city." Adam admitted.

"Told you so," She said happily.

"Do we have time to try it out?" Adam asked.

"We have an hour," Isabella said.

"Perfect, then let's have some fun!" Adam said excitedly.

"Come on then!" Isabella said.


An hour later Vivian was calling them on Isabella's cell phone to come home so they could shop. "Time to go." Isabella told Adam.

"Okay, so we'll see you guys tomorrow?" Adam asked.

"Likely, Isabella comes by pretty much every day so I'll see you guys tomorrow! It was nice meeting you Adam!" Phineas said and Ferb waved.

"Does he ever talk?" Adam asked.

"Ferb? He's more of a man of action." Phineas said as usual.

"Well good to know," Adam said as they left for home.

"So, what do you think?" Isabella asked opening the door. "Wouldn't have believe me if I just told you instead of showing you?"

"Not a chance," Adam said honestly.

"There is something else I noticed though, with you and Phineas."

"Oh, uh really?" Isabella asked stammering slightly.

"Yeah, it seems like you have a little crush on him."

"Well yeah I do sort of, but..." She trailed off awkwardly.

"But what?" Adam asked sounding worried.

"I don't think it would be good for me," She said.

"Why not? I just meet him but he seems like a really nice guy."

"He is and that makes him a great friend, but he has an obsession with his projects," She said.

Adam nodded understanding. "Oh yeah, then he probably would be a good idea for a boyfriend. Is there anyone else you like?"

"Well, sort of, there is one other boy," She said.

"Then maybe you should try to talk to him, you never know, right?"

"Well I guess so," Isabella said as Vivian got into the car.

"I will after the shopping trip, okay?" Isabella asked as they got in the car as well.

"Okay," Adam shrugged they drove on before arriving at The Superduper Mega Superstore.

"Do you happen to have any money, Adam?" Vivian asked.

"3,350 dollars in my account," Adam said. Both their eyes widened. "From dad." He clarified. "I had 4,050, but the plane ticket and cab ride here set me back,"

"That's really cool though." Isabella said.

"Yeah I guess so," Adam said.

"The circumstances are terrible though." Isabella sighed sadly.

"Yeah, by the way, when we get home I have something for each of you," Adam said.

"Really?" Isabella asked. "What?"

"Not sure honestly," Adam said.

"Well, alright." Vivian said.

"Let's go shop then," Adam said. Then they split apart Adam wanted get some cd's and Isabella and Vivian wanted to get some clothes. (If you haven't read the AN yet, you have to read it now or this will make no sense.)


At the CD store he noticed a girl staring at him from the Goth music section. She looked a couple years older than him with shoulder length black hair, dark brown eyes and fair skin and she smiled when he noticed her then he looked away blushing she approached him. "Hey."

"Hey," Adam said looking up at and noting that despite her age she was about his height.

"What's your name?" The girl asked.

"I'm Adam Garcia-Shapiro and you?" He asked.

"Vanessa Doofenshmirtz."

"Well it's nice to meet you Vanessa," Adam said offering his hand still blushing slightly.

Vanessa shook it blushing as well, "You too, Adam, I just moved here so I don't really know anyone yet."

"Neither do I, today is my first day here," Adam said.

"Really? That's crazy. I mean, what are the odds?"

"I couldn't tell you, still it explains why the extremely pretty girl is by herself," Adam said

That of course made Vanessa blush deeply. "You really think I'm pretty?"

"Of course I do, how could anyone not look at you, you're incredible," Adam said.

"Th-thank you." She stuttered red as a tomato looking him up and down. "You're certainly quite the looker yourself though."

Now it was Adams turn to blush tomato red. "Th-thanks," Adam said smiling slightly.

"So, if you don't mind my asking, why did you move?" Vanessa asked.

"Oh, well, my dad died so I had to come live with my mom and my sister," Adam said sadly.

He was surprised that Vanessa gave him a hug to try and comfort him. "I'm really sorry to hear that."

"It's okay it was not your fault," Adam said hugging her back awkwardly. "Why did you move?" He asked pulling away.

"I guess I just needed a fresh start, get as far away from the prison my dad's in as possible and not have everyone immediately associate me with what he has done."

Adam pulled her back into a hug. "I'm sorry I can't imagine what that must be like,"

"It's really rough." Vanessa said sadly.

"I can only imagine," Adam said as they separated.

"As salt on the wound, my mom had died years ago. So, now I'm all alone."

Adam stayed close to her feeling really bad for the girl. "Hey you don't have to be," Adam said.

"I don't?" Vanessa asked confused.

"No, you have me to hang out with now," Adam said.

Vanessa gave a weak smile, "I would like that."

"Good, hopefully I won't bore you," Adam said smiling.

"I doubt you could." Vanessa smiled.

"Then I guess we'll find out," Adam said offering his hand. Vanessa unhesitantly took it. Adam pulled her with him. They spent a few hours together getting to know each other and discovering they had a lot in common. They really enjoyed each other's company as well.


"There you are, Adam." Isabella said coming over when they agreed to meet. "Who's this?"

"This is Vanessa Doofenshmirtz. Vanessa this is my sister," Adam said.

"Nice to meet you, Vanessa." Isabella said offering a hand. "That's a cool last name by the way, where's it from?"

"It's Drueselsteinian," Vanessa said

"Oh yeah, I've actually been to Drueselstein once, it's quite an interesting country."

"Really? Most have never heard of it," She said.

"I hadn't." Adam admitted honestly.

"I told you about it," Vanessa said.

"I know, but I didn't before that." Adam specified.

"You know now," She said.

"So, are you ready to go now, Adam?" Isabella asked.

"Yeah, everything is here or going to be delivered. Just give me a minute please?" Adam asked.

Isabella nodded. "Alright."

Adam turned to Vanessa. "Guess I have to go," He said sadly

"Will I ever see you again?" Vanessa asked.

"I would love to see you again, we could exchange numbers?" Adam offered.

"I would love that, too." Vanessa said and scribbled her number down handing it to him.

Adam wrote his down as well. "So, I'll call you soon," He said smiling.

"I look forward to it." Vanessa said smiling as well as she took his number.

"Then I won't wait too long," Adam said blushing and giving her a quick hug. Vanessa blushed and returned it. "See you soon," Adam whispered before turning and heading to his family.

"Now you're ready?" Isabella asked and Adam nodded.

"That girl seemed pretty into you," Isabella said casually smirking.

"You really think so?" Adam asked blushing deeply.

"Yes I think so she was so happy," Isabella said.

"Well, I hope so." Adam said looking at her number. "But she's probably just happy to have someone to talk to in general; she just moved here, she's an only child, her dad's in prison, and her mom's dead so otherwise she's all alone."

"That poor girl she must be really lonely," Isabella said.

"I know; I feel so sorry for her. It makes me feel a lot better about my current situation though; at least, I have you guys and even Phineas and Ferb." Adam admitted glancing back towards where she was but she had already left.

"Do you like her?" Isabella asked casually.

"Well… umm…" Adam rubbed the back of his head, redder than should be possible and sighed. "Yes."

"I think you have a shot," Isabella said enjoying taunting her brother.

"Well, I did get her number." Adam said holding up the slip of paper.

Isabella's jaw dropped, "No way!"

Adam nodded and put the number in his phone, "I'll call her when we get home."

"I am not sure what to say," Isabella said.

Adam shrugged, "Either way, let's just head home."

"Race you!" Isabella said running off.

Adam ran off after her. Isabella won barely. "No fair you had a head start," Adam said

"Excuses, excuses." Isabella shrugged off.

"No you cheated," Adam said.

"Alright fine, rematch inside once we get home." Isabella said getting in the car.

"Deal!" Adam said jumping in after her.

They got all the stuff in the car and were heading home.

"So Adam get everything?" Vivian asked.

"Yes, I did." Adam said but Isabella pitched in.

"He also met a girl."

"Oh he did?" Vivian asked with a smirk.

Adam blushed deeply. "Yeah, I even got her phone number. Her name's Vanessa Doofenshmirtz."

"So what is she like?" Vivian asked.

"She's really nice but she's honestly been through a lot and doesn't really feel like she has anyone else she could rely on."

"Then it was very sweet of you to be there for her," Vivian said.

"Well, I couldn't just leave her alone; she just moved here, is an only child, her mom's dead, and her dad's in prison. She needed to have someone she could count on." Adam said.

"That and she's amazing judging by the look in Adams eyes," Isabella said.

Adam did not try to deny that. "Yes, she really is."

"Adam has a crush," Isabella sing-songed.

"Shut up." Adam said as red as possible.

"You do!"

Adam sighed. "Fine, I do."

"Then you should call her soon mijo," Vivian said.

"I was going to as soon as we got home." Adam said.

"Good," Vivian said.


Not much happened until they got home. Then the race was on and both twins had remembered.

"I win!" They both said inside the house.

"No! I won!"

"I won it's that simple," Isabella said.

"No it isn't, it's obvious that I won!" Adam said.

"No you didn't!"

"Well, I guess it doesn't really matter." Adam said pulling out his phone.

"I guess not call your girlfriend," Isabella said smirking.

"Why don't you call your boyfriend then?" Adam reminded dialing the number.

"I will, actually," Isabella said pulling out her own phone. They both dialed and sent at the same time.

It barely got into the first ring before Vanessa answered. "Hey Adam!"

"Hey Vanessa how are you?"

"A lot better now." Vanessa said happily.

"Really why is that?" Adam asked carrying his clothes upstairs.

He heard her giggle from the other line. "I'll give you one guess."

"You won the lottery?" Adam asked.

"Well… in a way… but not in money." Vanessa said.

"You found an aunt you did not know about?" Adam guessed sarcastically.

"You suck at this game, you know that?" Vanessa asked playfully.

"Well, I never was much of a mystery game person," Adam chuckled.

"Good to know then, but I meant since you called."

"Well I missed you, and wanted to talk," Adam said.

"Well, I'm very glad you did. I missed you, too." Vanessa said honestly.

"So where did you go?" Adam asked lying on his bed.

Vanessa hesitated hoping he won't ask to come, "Well, I actually had my own place to come back to."

"Oh that must be nice," Adam said.

"No, not really." Vanessa sighed.

"Why not a private space to yourself sounds great," Adam said.

"It's lonely."

"Well, then you should invite somebody over or visit my family," Adam said.

"Visiting your family sounds nice if it's not too much of a bother." Vanessa said not liking the first idea at all.

"Well the come over we're on Maple Drive I will wait for you out front," Adam said.

"I'll be right over." Vanessa said with no hesitation.

"See you when you get here," Adam said before they hung up.

Cliffhanger! Next chapter you get to see who the 'other boy' is for Isabella. Since I chewed your ear off and forced you to read it I'll just leave you with this. Review and flames are still okay!
