The ABCs of Montessa

Disclaimer: I don't own Monty Monogram, Vanessa Doofenshmirtz or any character from Phineas and Ferb, including the series. I apologize if some chapters may be a little OOC, but what can I say? It's Montessa I'm doing. (Sorry Ferbnessa fans)

Chapter 10: Jam

Friday was just like any ordinary day of the week. The truth was, it didn't feel any ordinary due to the problem Vanessa was facing right now.

She suspected that her boyfriend Monty was texting another girl behind her back. Vanessa thought it was a different type of cheating. The kind of cheating that involved the one you love making googly eyes at another girl. In Monty's case, he tried to explain this whole 'texting another girl' thing to Vanessa, but she didn't want to hear about it.

So the only thing Vanessa did was find a nice quiet place to be alone for the time being. In the process, Vanessa was crying her heart out.

How on earth would Monty do this to his own girlfriend? Should Vanessa forgive him for what he'd done?

She didn't feel very forgiving at all, and Monty couldn't blame her for it. She decided to stay locked in her bathroom for the remainder of the day. Her evil genius of a father would've likely checked up on her, but Vanessa lied to her father that she was having one of her periods. She did a good job of hiding her relationship with Monty from her father.

Dr. Doofenshmirtz was so convinced about this situation, that he had to go get tampons from the local pharmacy.

For Monty, Doofenshmirtz leaving his creepy building of an evil corporation proved to be the excellent time to explain to Vanessa what happened.

Monty took the elevator since it was easier to get up a few floors (taking the stairs was hard on a guy's two knees). When he stepped out of the elevator, Monty approached the door to Vanessa's bedroom. He took a deep breath, trying to get the nerves from that fight off of his brain.

As soon as he shook it off, Monty knocked on the door and spoke on.

"Vanessa, are you in there? We need to talk."

There was no answer. Monty must've not known that Vanessa was already in the bathroom and not in her bedroom. He already felt clueless as it was.

But before Monty could ever try knocking the second time...

...he heard sniffling coming from next door. Monty could hear that familiar cry anywhere.

He put his ear through the door, hearing the sound of Vanessa's cries come through the door. That's quite a sound that Monty didn't wanna hear at all. Seeing Vanessa cry made him feel sad and awful. Especially of what Vanessa thought he'd done.

After a deep breath, Monty began knocking on the door.

"What?" Vanessa shouted out of anger.

"Vanessa, it's Monty..." he sighed, "I really want to talk to you about what happened."

"Save it, Monty... what do you wanna tell me?" Vanessa said with a scary snarl in her voice, "You wanna leave me for that broad? You're not good enough for me? What in the hell do you wanna tell me, Monty?"

Monty felt a little bothered that Vanessa would lash at him like that. After shaking the scary nerves off of him, he kept on talking.

"It's about what happened." Monty sighed again, "I'm here to tell you that I'm sorry."

"Oh, please... I've heard that silly apology a thousand times." Vanessa spat in hate, "You're just like Johnny. You think some kind of video game or girl is more important than me. Admit it!"

There was no getting to her. Monty had to tell her this tale. She couldn't stop ignoring him for so long.

"I'm not here to admit anything. I really am sorry." Monty said, trying to feel compassionate, "Look... there's this girl I've dated way before we first met. Her name was Baylee and she was a little bit like you. She always defies her father and she's sort of a crazy redhead."

Vanessa didn't want to hear this kind of bullcrap, but she might as well hear the rest of his tale. After all, what Monty was saying started to come true.

"But during the time we both dated, she started being needy." Monty replied once more, "I started to like it, but sooner or later, it got old between her and me. She kept on forcing me to kiss her, but I refused. And that's how we broke up in the first place."

Vanessa was still mad, but not as mad as she thought. One second at a time, her anger started to disappear slowly.

"But then, things started taking a turn for the worst." Monty sighed as he continued, "She started to text me these creepy messages as if she's obsessed with me. Look Vanessa, just because she wants to see me at the park at midnight and makeout with me, I'm not gonna do it. Me and Baylee are never gonna be together anymore. Those text messages she sent me mean nothing to me."

Vanessa never scowled or scoffed at his story one bit. She was really starting to believe every word Monty said.

"Besides, the only girl I ever wanna be with is you, Vanessa." Monty said, pausing for the moment, "You really make me happy even if I'm not in the mood. Deep down, I would never do anything to hurt you, ever. I love you, Vanessa..."

Monty was trying to get Vanessa to respond. But all he heard was silence. Maybe Vanessa didn't buy into his story. Maybe it was all just a waste of time.

"I know you won't probably say anything, and I don't blame you for doing so, but that's how I really feel about you." Monty spoke in a grim feeling.

But before Monty could ever get the chance to walk away...

...the door started opening slowly.

Monty prepared himself for what could happen to him. Could Vanessa still be holding a grudge? Was she looking to kick Monty's butt for her amusement? Monty was looking at her, but Vanessa wasn't angry...

...she was crying silently. But it was filled with joy. She had every right to forgive Monty and for his story.

After Monty wiped away the teardrop from Vanessa's cheek...

...she wrapped her arms around Monty's neck and gave him a warm hug. That one single hug made him smile all over. Monty was trying to shush her from all the crying, and he did a good job of keeping her calm.

"I forgive you, Monty..." Vanessa whispered to him, "I'm sorry I didn't believe you. I hope you'll forgive me for being mad..."

Monty's hug kept on holding her tight. She was his, and not a case of text messages was gonna ruin what he and Vanessa have. Nothing was gonna ruin what they have. Monty finally finished his hug with a whisper onto his girlfriend's ear.

"I forgive you..."

Awwwwww... I'm certain Vanessa's appearance in clothing doesn't make her the forgiving type, but at least Monty came clean, so that was very good.

I loved that "Drusselsteinoween" episode and that outfit Monty wore. He could be such a lady-killer with that Scarlet Pimpernel costume. Makes him act like a vigilante superhero.

Just in case if somebody didn't get that theme, the kind of Jam I meant involves problems in a relationship, not some kind of fruity spread. Just so everyone knows.

Anyway, now that were done with "J", what shall I have planned with "K" next chapter? Until then, later! (;D)
