(I'm sorry it took so long. I've been a little preocuppied with school shopping and lots of stuff, sorry. And I probably won't have alot of time to post for a while, since school started not too long ago for me. :( sorry)
Gretchen's POV
I woke up one morning about 9 or 10 in the morning. I went downstairs to eat breakfast before going to see Phineas. When I got downstairs, my dad was on the phone, as usual. Ever since my mother left, he'd been working overtime to pay the bills. I sighed. Mom was being selfish, leaving my dad behind to pick up the pieces like that. It wasn't right.
I ate breakfast and heard a ping on the computer. I ran to the computer, hoping it was Phineas. It was, but the computer was logged into dad's chat.
(A/N This is the chat room that Phineas and Gretchen are in, but Phineas thinks he's talking to Grethen's dad.)
Phineas: You there?
Gretchen: Yeah.
Phineas: About the picture ... I'm not going to stand for this anymore. Go ahead and tell the world, I don't care anymore.
Gretchen: Why not?
Phineas: Because I've already lost the girl I loved to Ferb, and I'm not going to date your lame daughter anymore.
(A/N It's no longer in the chat room.)
"What?", I exclaimed.
I dug through the hard drive of the computer. I found an album pictures of Phineas throwing a girl into the ocean. I deleted it from the computer and went to scold my dad.
"Dad, are you blackmailing Phineas?", I demanded.
He sighed and replied,"Gretchen, it's for you."
"No. If I want someone, I'll get them fair and square", I lectured.
"I'm sorry", he apologized.
"You'll not blackmail him anymore. I deleted the pictures", I barked.
He hung his head low. It was like I was the parent and he was the child. I sighed and went to my room. I changed into my usual outfit and headed over to Phineas's house.
"Phineas?", I called from the fence in his backyard.
"Oh, Gretchen. Listen ... ", he began.
"No need. I know. I know my dad was blackmailing you to date me, but I don't think it was right of him. So, I deleted all the pictures he had of you and we won't be your problem anymore", I explained.
"Oh, well, that's a relief", he replied.
"Yeah. Well, I guess I'll go now. See ya, Phineas", I good-byed.
"See ya", he waved.
Ferb's POV
I looked out my window and saw Phineas and Gretchen in the backyard. Gretchen left and I hurried to the phone.
"Hello, Mrs. Garcia Shapiro. Is Isabella there?", I asked.
"Si! Si! I go get her", she exclaimed.
"Hello?", Isabella answered.
I didn't know what to say.
"Ferb?", she guessed.
I nodded, and hoped she heard the creaking noise.
"Ferb, that envelope ... I- I", she stammered.
"No need. It's okay", I interrupted.
"No, Ferb. I don't think you were supposed to be there when I got it ... ", she confided.
"I do not care, Iz. I l-loathe the fact someone would want to blackmail you. No matter what you looked like before I met you", I assured.
"Thank you, Ferb. You're the best", she replied.
"No problem. Do you want to hang out today?", I asked.
"Most definately!", she agreed.
"Well, come on over and we'll hang out!", I offered.
She agreed and hurried over.
We were avoiding Phineas, for we knew it was not a good time. Things were tense between the three of us, and it didn't seem to be getting any better. So we hid in my bedroom.
"Ferb ... tell me something. Do you think-", she began when she was cut off.
"Isabella!", Phineas yelled. "You're here!"
Isabella turned away from him.
"No, no, Iz, listen! Gretchen made her dad quit blackmailing me! I'm a free man!", he exclaimed.
"Really?", she asked with some believeable enthusiasm.
He nodded.
"Hey, that's my thing!", I complained.
He ignored me.
"You wanna go out now, Iz?", he asked.
"No! No! NO!", I yelled. "I've worked to long and hard for the day to come that Isabella Garcia Shapiro even look at me, let alone go out with me. I've never hurt her, like you have. I-I ... I love her! And you just see her as a pawn to play with! You think you can barge right in here and sweep her away like Prince Charming? Well I'm not going down without a fight!"
"Ferb-", he began to talk me out of it.
"NO! I'm through listening to you! Isabella, will you go out with me?", I asked.
We turned to her, seeing her shock. We waited for her reply, but all she could manage was a,"Uhhhhhhh."
Will Isabella go for Phineas, the one she's crushed on for a long time?
Or will she choose Ferb, the loyal one who would never break her heart?
This time, I want to hear what YOU think. Tell me which you think Iz should go for! I might just use your replies for the story!
