Chapter 7

Sorry, I went camping. Disclaimer. No reviews guys. Geez. Makes me feel like it was so bad you didn't want to waste the time on reviewing. On with it!

{Jess' P.O.V.)

I had been crying. For a long time. I was sitting against the wall of my room sobbing until I was done. Then I just sat quietly. After a while, I heard a knock on the door.

"Go away!" I yelled. I was still pissed. Suddenly a long sequence of knocks I recognized as Morse code sounded on the door. Come again? I tapped back.

It's Ferb came the response. I tapped come in and dried my eyes. He opened the door and walked into the room. He sat against the wall opposite me.

Hey he signed. We were both people who enjoyed the quiet, so we kind of got each other. So, we started communicating in sign language.

Are you alright? He asked.

No, of course not.

Why? A misunderstanding?

I snorted.

A pretty big misunderstanding. Do I look that boyish?

Of course not. He replied, you are beautiful.

As beautiful as Vanessa? I inquired, grinning.

Yeah, but don't let her hear me say it.

Somehow I don't think hearing it will be a problem. I laughed. Suddenly I stopped.

You know she's cheating on you, right?

Yeah. I was going to break up with her pretty soon.

Well… I started blushing profusely. I had always had a bit of a thing for Ferb. He was like me, but mechanically minded and extremely handsome.

Maybe we could…? I was cut off by him lowering my hands, his body pressed against mine, and by his lips on mine. My heart skipped a million beats. I collapsed into his arms and we stayed there a while. Finally he got up, walked to the door and looked back.

"Jess?"

"Yeah?"

"I always knew."

"Me too."
