Isabella was walking home from school, and she decided to visit the Flynn-Fletchers residence to see what they were up to- especially Phineas. She walked into their residence and opened the fence with enthusiasm.
"Hey guys, wha'cha do…ing?" she sad as she walked in, pausing about halfway. She could see that Phineas was working on some gadget and beside him was Adyson and not Ferb, which deemed strange to her.
Phineas was working on his device and then he suddenly glanced up. "Oh, Hey Isabella!"
Isabella looked at him walked towards him. "Hey Phineas," she chuckled. "Where's Ferb?"
"Oh, Ferb is at the shop getting some tools." He replied nonchalantly.
Isabella walked over to Adyson and pointed at her. "Wha'cha doing?"
Adyson looked at her and chuckled. She had a feeling that she was somehow in trouble. "So I was walking around the neighborhood, and all of sudden, Ferb walked up to me. He told me to keep Phineas company and to help him out because Ferb had to go somewhere."
Isabella stared at her with death glare, but she was satisfied with this. She walked away from Adyson, back to Phineas and asked him in a singsong voice, "So wha'cha doin?"
"Oh, these?" Phineas waved at the gadgets and chuckled. "It's a surprise." The items on the workbench crackled and fizzed and Phineas pulled out a fire extinguisher from under the bench and pointed the hose at it and sprayed it. When the entire top of the bench was sprayed completely, he looked back at Isabella, cracked a smile, and chuckled.
"It's a prototype." He grinned. "Oh, I see." She smiled. "So what have you been up to Isabella?"
"Oh, you know… school, checking up on you, homework, fantasizing about our- I mean my future." She stammered.
"Oh, that's nice." Phineas replied while he went back working on the gadget. Shortly after, he looked up and back at Isabella. "Wait, what? What did you say?"
"School, homework, and thinking about my future." She grinned. She felt happy that she didn't completely tell him how she felt- she wanted him to figure it all out himself. She didn't want to completely reveal to him, but occasionally drop some clues; but after the incident before school started, she didn't want to drop any more.
"Oh…" Phineas sighed, disappointed. He was expecting something more. "Well, these prototypes should be ready by tomorrow." He told her. "The entire school certainly will be in a surprise." He chuckled.
Phineas went into his garage and when he walked out, he was carrying a blowtorch and a mask. Isabella walked over to the gate and opened it and suddenly Phineas looked her way and spoke up. "Where are you going Isabella?"
She glanced back and looked at Phineas while keeping her eye on the other girl. "Sorry Phineas. I wish I could stay, but I have a ton of homework to do."
"Uh, well ok." He stammered. He enjoyed her company but he didn't know exactly how to show it. "Well, see you tomorrow then." He waved and then put on his mask, turned on the blowtorch and continued working.
"Yeah… see you tomorrow." She sighed. When she was almost out of their driveway, she spotted Ferb and saw him slurping on a drink.
"Thanks a lot Ferb!" She whispered as she walked past him. After some distance, he looked over his shoulder. "What did I do?" He shrugged his shoulders and kept walking on to their backyard.
