Chapter 10 – Wait, WHAT??? Part 1
This is part 1 of the "And You Are…?" finale. IDK how many parts there's gonna be; it all depends on how far I take it. The chapters will most likely stay in Phineas' POV, but it might switch to Buford and Ferb once in a while (Izzy gets her turn in my next story)
So, short summary to remind you wat's going on: Izzy's memory is still missing, and Buford is gonna show Phineas the pic he found. Buford has now decided to show him the picture from his pocket.
Remember, this one?
So, yeah. Enjoy the story.
As I'm watching Isabella run towards the house – meanwhile getting more depressed by the minute – Buford walks over to me. He's got this weird look on his face, like he's nervous or somethin'. Sorta like that time he lost his goldfish Biff. {A/N: Voyage to the Bottom of Buford reference}
"Hey, Dinner- Phineas, I…I think I found somethin'…somethin' that might help Isabella's memory," he stuttered. Maybe it's just me, but he seems to be acting weird today. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a crumpled paper.
"Uh, what is it?" I asked, taking it from him.
He looked even more uncomfortable. "Uh…just another pic I found in her room…"
Again, weird.
I smoothed out the picture in my lap. It was of me and Isabella, at the Labor Day carnival last year. I had the same copy in a photo frame in me and Ferb's room.
"I'm not really sure this will work, though. I mean, we've already shown her so many pictures of us at carnivals and amusement parks and stuff, so why would-"
"Look closer at it, it's different," he interrupted.
So I did. And he was right. It appeared to be exactly the same as my copy, but when I looked closer at it, I noticed her copy had little pink and red hearts drawn all over it in crayon. Wait, hearts? Why would Izzy draw hearts all over the picture?
"Hmm…it has a bunch of hearts all over it," I said.
Ferb peered over my shoulder to look at the picture. I handed it to him to see what he thought. He looked it over, and then flipped it to the back. He looked over at Buford.
"Can I talk to you over there for a second?" he asked Buford, motioning him to go by the garage door. As they leave, I wonder what they're talking about, and more so why I'm not included. I guess I shouldn't worry about it. What I SHOULD be worrying about is helping Izzy.
Maybe this picture WILL help her out. I wonder what's on the back of it that made Ferb leave so suddenly…
Ferb's POV (with his British accent). 1ST time POVing Ferb!
When we finally got to the garage, I made sure Phineas hadn't followed us before saying:
"Where the heck did you get that?"
"Wha-oh, like I said, from her closet."
"Do you realize what's on the back?" I asked.
"Umm…I don't see what you're…OHH, yeah, I know what you're talking about now," he replied.
I just stared at him. "So you know, yet you still gave it to him."
"What's the big deal? Maybe it will help girly," he answered, obviously unconcerned.
"You know as well as I do that Phineas has no clue how Isabella feels. This is probably the worst time to tell him. He's already confused about what to do about her, and adding THIS to it all…"
"Uh, Ferb?" he asked. I was too wrapped up in my ranting to listen.
"This is going to mess him up in the head-"
"FERB!" Buford yelled, startling me.
"What???"
"Uh, do you have the picture?"
"Huh? No, I thought you had it," I replied, confused after my rant.
"Well, if I don't have it, and YOU don't have it, then who…" he stopped midsentence.
We both stared at each other for a moment.
"PHINEAS!" we both yelled at the same time.
And we both sprinted back to Phineas as fast as we could.
I really hope it isn't too late.
Phineas POV
This…no, it can't…she isn't…but we…but I don't…but SHE doesn't…wait, WHAT???
Oops. Looks like Ferb was too late.
Just a sneak peak at what Phineas' head is thinking when he saw the back. I was originally gonna make it that he was really naïve about it (like he always is) but I figured that 1) he'd have to be a complete idiot not to get it, and 2) I wouldn't get to use the last line if he WAS a complete idiot.
This is probably the biggest cliffhanger in the entire story. I love to leave you hanging. 'Cuz the thought of the looks on your faces is priceless. :D
Part 2 coming up! Or maybe I should wait, just to make you uncomfortable. Nah, I'm too nice for that. OR AM I???
…yeah, I am.
