PNF Fan fiction
Chapter 1, part 8
"T.D.! Get down! Phineas is coming!" Ferb said, crouched down.
"I can't crouch down like that! My leg hurts real badly!" T.D. was sitting behind the bush and half her head wasn't covered.
Again, Ferb grabbed her arm and pulled. Obviously, he hadn't thought that through because she fell on top of him.
Ferb looked up and saw her face inched from his. That's when he noticed it all. The bruises on her neck, a barely visible scar consisting of 3 stitched above her jaw line, the deep blue circle under her left eye, and, of course, her pigtails were completely imperfect.
So how did she manage to still look beautiful, he thought to himself. Wait, did he just think that? Yes, yes he did!
Uh oh...
T.D. could feel their chests brushing against each other with every breath. She could also feel the "awkward" in the air. So she slowly removed herself from on top of him.
"Sorry." She said,
"Its fine," he said as a Cheshire cat grin formed on his face. "Trust me."
If a stranger were to take a look at Phineas and Isabella at that moment, he or she would've thought that they had been together since a long time ago. But they also would've been wrong.
"Phineas..." said Isabella "say something."
She was sitting on his lap, with her head on his chest, as he has his arms around her tightly, because no one would ever take the chance of losing something that precious to them.
"I love you...?" said Phineas. He didn't know what to say.
Isabella laughed.
"That's so cheesy!" she said.
"I know." Said Phineas, also laughing.
They both ended their laughter with a sigh and sat, again, in complete silence.
"What do you think of Baljeet?" asked Phineas.
"Excuse me?" said Isabella suspiciously.
"You know, he's really into you..."
Phineas would've continued, but the look Isabella gave him was just that scary.
So he laughed and kissed her on the cheek, only to see Isabella blush and lower hey eye.
She looked like T.D. when she did that, thought Phineas.
He decided to torment her a little more.
"So are you going to run off again because I kissed you?"
Isabella looked up and then at Phineas. Her look was even scarier this time, which made it even cuter.
Phineas stared at her seriously for 2 seconds and then burst out laughing, soon to be joined by Isabella who also gave him a soft punch on the arm.
"Go to hell, Phineas Flynn." She said sweetly.
"Not without you, sweetheart." He said, and they both started to laugh hysterically.
T.D. and Ferb sat, facing each other, behind a taller hedge bordering the forest from the dance.
The silence was very awkward. T.D. was ripping up grass as Ferb watched her. She refused to meet his gaze.
"T.D., I'm taking you home." He said softly.
"Why?"
"I'm going to fix up you leg, ok?" he answered, still softly.
He didn't want her to argue. He felt bad that he couldn't do anything to make her feel better. But of course, she didn't understand that...
"No, you don't have to. Things like this always happen to me." She said trying to form a smile through the sharp pains that were shooting up and down her leg.
"I can see that..." Ferb said, examining her face again.
"Yeah..." she said and stared at the destroyed grass under her.
Ferb noticed that he hit her on a weak spot. He felt sorry.
"Sorry, it's just that you have all these scars and bruises and... well what do I know, I'm a bloody palm tree." He mumbled under his breath. He didn't go on, he was making it worse. And yet, the girl giggled.
"You're sweet Ferb. You can fix me up if you really want to. Even though it is totally unnecessary." She said.
Ferb smiled. He's sweet!
"Ok," said Ferb. "I really want to. But first, I noticed a scar on your cheek. Don't worry it's not visible. I just saw it when you fell...Well I was just wondering how you got it..." he said. He should have shut up, he thought. But on the bright side, she was comfortable while answering.
"Well, I had gone snowboarding with Kyle..." she started.
Kyle... he thought. That's what she had called him before.
"And we went on a double diamond ramp. See, I wasn't that good, but obviously that really didn't matter to Kyle. So we started to go down, it was really scary for me." She paused. They were now slowly making their way deeper into the forest. She could see the trees getting thicker in the distance.
"There was a tree, right in the dead center of the hill. And of course, with my luck, I lost control and was headed straight for it. Luckily for me, Kyle saw what was happening, rushed down next to me and pushed me out of the way." She paused again.
"How'd you get the scar though?" asked Ferb.
"Okay, you're smart! Think about it! I was going full speed and then fell over. My face scraped against the ice."
"Ouch." Said Ferb.
"Yeah..." whispered T.D., staring at the nearby tree even though her mind was far away.
The pair walked a little more until they reached the heart of the forest.
T.D. knew she had to be careful; she noticed that the ground was rough and that tree roots were thicker and stuck out of the ground. But she wasn't the only who noticed these dangers.
Suddenly, she felt something on her lower back and on the backs of her knees and before she knew it, she was defying the laws of gravity.
"Put me down!" she demanded, looking up at Ferb.
"No way, you are going to kill yourself if I do. I am saving your life."
"Ferb! You can't just carry me!" she yelled in protest.
"Why not, I think I'm doing just fine." He said calmly.
"It's bad for your back." She mumbled.
"You're going to have to find a better reason." He said back.
"I feel like a damsel in distress. Which I am NOT." She said.
"I know you're not. You're much more valuable, which is why you should be even more protected." He said with a grin.
"Okay. That was sweet. Cheesy, but sweet... I'll let you carry me. Just wipe that grin off your face hon." She said.
Ferb's smile grew even wider and T.D. rolled her eyes.
"We look like a total couple." She grumbled.
"Maybe that's what I'm going for." Ferb whispered in all seriousness, forgetting the fact that she was inches away from his face... she heard.
