Okay so I don't have much time so let's get through this quick, Chinchilla, now to the reviews.
Sabrina06: You can say that again.
Yarthayaj'knaushtavdhladleklwa: … … … um … that's … not really a request so much as … something that everyone already is hoping will happen. I already told you that I can't take requests for this story.
Renner15: As long as I need to.
Phinbella-cute1: Well thank you for the review but due to my time restraints right now I can't really respond to it much.

"And that's what happened." I finished.
Buford looked at me strangely. "Wait, wait, wait, you mean to tell me that you don't like Isabella?"
"Not enough to want to go out with her." I answered. "I find her kind of irritating to tell the truth."
"Well that's a first." Buford said, as he sat back. "I never thought that I would meet anyone who found Isabella annoying."
"Don't you find her annoying?" I asked.
"No comment." Buford responded. "But back to the matter at hand. As it turns out, I know the perfect way to help you. And what's more, it's extremely simple."
I looked at Buford, in shock at first, before my expression turned into a leer. "I don't believe you." I said bluntly.
"Why not? I'm believable." He retorted.
" You're about as believable as a nervous man in a lying contest."
Buford crossed his arms and frowned. "That's just cold. You know I'm trying to help you and you go insult me."
I let out a sigh and shook my head. "I'm sorry, I'll hear your idea if you still want to tell me."
"Now that's more like it." Buford said as he smiled. "All you have to do is tell Isabella how you feel about her."
I looked at him confused for a moment. "But I don't feel anything for her."
"That's the point Ferb." Buford said as he sat back.
"But if I do that, then she will be heartbroken."
"You're catching on fast. You tell her that you don't like her and what she sees in you is really what she likes about Phineas. She falls back in love with Phineas and then you-"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on a minute. I can't simply go and break Isabella's heart like that."
"And why not?" Buford asked. "No matter what you do you will end up breaking her heart. Best to do it sooner and avoid twenty chapters trying to get it through her head."
"There's got to be a better way!" I exclaimed.
"Ferb, it's like pulling off a bandage, if you do it quick then it will only hurt for a few moments; but if you take your time then it will hurt for days."
I gave him another incredulous look. "But-"
"Think of it this way." He interrupted. "The longer you take to tell her, the longer Phineas is going to be mad at you. Do you want him to be mad at you?"
I was at a loss for words until I finally hung my head in defeat. "But how is your idea supposed to get Phineas to stop being mad at me? He already thinks that I'm dating Isabella."
"That's where the second portion of my idea comes in, which you would already know IF YOU WOULD LET ME FINISH!" He exclaimed. "After you break Isabella's heart you have to tell Phineas that you dumped her."
"How is that supposed to work?" I demanded.
"He will demand and explanation from you, meaning that he won't be able to interrupt you like YOU KEEP DOING WHEN I TRY TO EXPLAIN THIS TO YOU!"
"Sorry." I said in defense. "Please continue."
"Right, well, you explain the truth to him and then he runs to Isabella and problem solved."
"Yet I'm getting both Phineas and Isabella upset."
"That's the best way Ferb, and the quickest."
I looked down and sighed. "I … I will think about it." I said before getting up.
"Don't think for too long, things might get worse." Buford said as I walked away.
"Worse?" I asked myself. "How could things possibly get any worse?"
(Ferb's POV)
I reached my house and headed up the stairs when I heard something coming from Phineas' and my shared room. I quickly ran upstairs and slowly opened the door to see that Phineas had taped a picture of my face to a punching bag and was … punching it. He was facing away from me but I could still tell that he was rather upset. "Damn it!" He exclaimed as he punched the picture. "Why did you have to go and steal her from me?" He continued punching the bag as I tried my best not to be noticed. "You couldn't have just told me that you liked her, could you? No, you had to keep it a secret from me, you had to go and stab me in the back." As he punched it once more, his hand stayed there and his head fell. "You were my brother, I trusted you, I would have understood if you had just told me. Why did you have to betray me like that?" I noticed that he was crying, I slowly closed the door and backed away.
"That's it." I said as I walked downstairs. "I never thought I would ever say this but … Buford was right."
Until next time, Axis23 is out, peace!
