The waiters came around to take their dishes. They had only taken a couple of bites of either their salad or soup. "I kindof feel bad for all that food we didn't eat."

"I wouldn't worry about it the manager owes me and Ferb."

"For what?"

"Well this isn't the Chez Platypus but the guy who bought it off us owns this restaurant too so as soon as he found out I had a reservation here he apparently ordered the best service for us. From what I've heard his chain of Platypus themed restaurants have done really well for themselves."

"Look at you and your fancy connections."

"Only the best for you." Isabella smiled.

"Are you going to be this corny for the rest of the evening?"

"If I get the proper opportunities than yes." They laughed and then saw the waiter come out with their food. The ate and talked about their week. Phineas choked laughing and blushing when Isabella told him about the locker room. They ate about half of their food before the waiter came back.

"And for desert?" They looked at each other and had a quick mental conversation.

"Just bring us they best desert on the menu with two spoons." The waiter looked like he had been expecting this.

"One chocolate volcanic iceberg coming up." Isabella and Phineas smiled at each other slightly excited about the sound of that desert. They continued to talk until they saw the waiter coming back with their desert. The name of it didn't lie. There were peaks of vanilla and chocolate ice cream surrounding a brownie covered in hot fudge as it steamed in the crisp night air. He placed it down in front of them with two spoons.

"There is no way we'll be able to eat all this." Isabella commented

"So you're going to let it go to waste?"

"Not in this life!" Isabella said as she grabbed her spoon and got some ice cream. Phineas smiled and grabbed his spoon before his date finished off all the good stuff, which was all of it.

Phineas and Isabella sat back clearly full as the waiter took their plate and they tipped him.

"Hey Isabella you have some chocolate.." Phineas pointed in the general direction of Isabella "Everywhere." They laughed

"Hey you're not so cleaned up either." Phineas picked up a napkin

"Let me help." He rubbed Isabella's face randomly with the napkin. She started laughing hysterically.

"Hey no fair!"

"You're absolutely right Isabella." Phineas said "I could have sworn this was the drugged napkin." He said looked over the table.

"Well we should find it quickly before someone besides me finds it." Isabella said. She grabbed a napkin and wiped some chocolate off Phineas's nose. "I get you have a large nose but it isn't close enough to your mouth for this to be acceptable."

"Well it was good. And you were hogging all the chocolate ice cream."

"That doesn't give your nose an excuse to get its own serving." They laughed. Phineas stood up to lead Isabella back to the boat. They got in and pushed off.

"This week has been fun. And not just because I got to be you. We were really able to hang out this week just by ourselves, without our usual group of friends around."

"Not to sound blunt or anything but I have to say that the whole week was made when you asked me out."

"That didn't sound blunt. But I have to ask a serious question." Phineas said still with a smile and welcoming happiness in his voice.

"And what would that be?"

"From what I heard you've liked me for a long time so I was wondering if at any point you thought 'Do I really want to date someone so socially inept he couldn't even notice me in the City of Love?'" Isabella looked thoughtful for a second

"My friends have asked me the same thing before actually. No I've never actually thought that. They always wondered 'Why do you still have a crush on Phineas if he won't notice you?' and I could never have an answer for them. It's never been a choice I just always like you, it never required thought or decision making on my part. If that makes any sense."

"I think it makes perfect sense. Except for liking me of course. I mean seriously every guy in school would give up his own family to date you but I guess I shouldn't complain, should I? I rank with them."

"Except you're actually on a date with me."

"So I out rank them. Yes!" Phineas did a quick fist pump and Isabella splashed him with water "Hey you should watch out."

"Ohh I'm scared. What will you do?" Phineas smiled.

"I'll do this." Phineas, from his standing position, started shifting his weight from one foot to the other to rock the boat.

"Hey, hey, HEY. Watch out you're going to tip us over!" Phineas continued to rock the boat.

"Don't rock the boat. Don't rock the boat baby. Don't rock the boat. Don't tip the boat over." Phineas sang as he rocked the boat.

"Well what if I do this!" Isabella timed herself as she grabbed one of Phineas's legs and his momentum draged him straight sideways off the boat. Phineas's arms flailed as he fell and just before he hit the water he grabbed the side of the boat bringing it with him. He just wished he could have seen the look on Isabella's face as the boat flung her off. They both surfaced under the now upside-down boat.

"I blame you." Phineas said with a smile.

"Keep it up and you'll never get to sleep in my extra soft bed."

"Oh that's cold, using man's one true weakness." Isabella laughed and they dived under and out from under the small canoe. Phineas flipped it back over and tried to climb in. He got one foot up to the side before it flipped him back into the water. Isabella tried the same thing with the same result.

"This water is freezing." Isabella said through clenched teeth. Phineas looked at her and at the canoe.

"Grab the side of the boat and get ready to hop in." Isabella did as she was told, reluctant to let go of her cold arms. Phineas swam under her and pushed her foot upward from underneath. He surfaced glad to see Isabella in the small boat. "Now help me up." Isabella looked at him.

"But you look so nice in the water." Phineas glared at her. She laughed and pulled him up. He wrapped his arms around her. "Hey Phineas, uhh whatcha doin?" He laughed while shivering.

"You might not have noticed but your whole face is blue from the cold." Isabella looked at Phineas and his face matched that description also. Then Isabella realized something.

"Umm Phineas where is the.."

"I dropped it when I went over. Apparently the oar doesn't float." Isabella groaned and found herself shivering as she did so. Leave it to Phineas to know when she was cold before she did.

"How are we going to get to the s-shore?" Isabella asked warming up against Phineas. He finally separated from her and looked around the boat slightly disappointed. There wasn't a single thing in the boat. The seat Isabella was sitting on was even fully attached.

"Well I have an idea but I don't like it."

"And your plan is.. what exactly?"

"Well we're pretty close to shore so I'll just jump into the water and swim the rest of the way pulling the boat."

"That is one of the stupidest plans you've had. And you put a gorilla in your sister's birthday cake once." Phineas smiled and hugged Isabella once more before jumping into the water. "Phineas!" She watched him surface and swim over to the boat to pull it. "You really do amaze me Phineas."

"Th-thanks. I-I always aim t-to please."

"Wouldn't it be quicker if I helped pull. Or if we both abandoned the boat?"

"W-water's too c-cold. Just stay in th-there and we'll be back in no time." Isabella watched as Phineas pulled the boat along. She couldn't help but feel admiration towards him for jumping into the water. About three quarters of the way there Isabella saw Phineas slow down considerably. She pulled him out of the water and was shocked at how cold he was. She wrapped her arms around him to warm him up

"You're going to be sick for a month if you keep that up."

"Y-you kn-n-now w-what's a r-really w-warm p-place?" He asked with a smile.

"What?"

"Your b-bed." He managed a small laugh between shivers. Isabella laughed with him and watched as the boat drifted towards the shore. Phineas was quickly going from a pale blue to a pale white with some areas regaining a pale pink color. As he warmed up he let Isabella off him and wrapped an arm around her. The night air was cool but it was much better than the water and there was not a single breeze to give them the slightest chill. After a couple of minutes of warming up and watching the sky the boat ran aground. Phineas jumped out and pulled it up onto the beach right by where their picnic had been at the start of the date 2 hours prior. He helped Isabella out and they both fell onto the beach.

"Hey Isabella you should probably take that wet dress off. It's only going to make you colder until it dries off."

"Actually it's pretty dry right now so.." Isabella stuck her tongue out and made a farting-like sound

"Are you sure? Because I can still see through it." Isabella laughed and looked down to see her pink bra and underwear were fairly visible through her brand new dress.

"By 'still' do you mean to say you've been staring?"

"Staring is such a negative word. I merely consider it looking out for the wellbeing of my date to ensure she didn't get hypothermia due to an unexpected swim in cold water."

"Or in simple terms, looking through my dress because it's wet."

"Well I suppose that would be one, more accurate, way to look at it." Isabella rolled over to him and tried to pin him down. After a short amount of time of them merely rolling across the small sandy beach Phineas finally got her pinned.

"Hey since when are you stronger than me?"

"Since when have you thought otherwise?" They both laughed then looked into each other's eyes. Phineas saw the eyes of the 4 year-old girl excited about the cool shape of his head. The eyes of the 7 year-old girl whose knee he had put a band-aid on after she fell off her bike. The same eyes that looked at virtually all of his inventions with admiration. The eyes of the girl who had just spent a week in the life of. And lastly the eyes of the girl who he had just gone on his first date with who was currently directly in front of him on the beach under the moonlight. Phineas lowered himself and his lips to within an inch of her. He hesitated for a second for any sign of hesitation from her. They both finished off the last inch equally, crashing together, leaving their heads spinning, and unleashing all the care and love they had had for each other since before they knew what it was to have care and love for someone.

After they finally separated and realized that it was getting time to be home they started walking back with Isabella wearing Phineas's jacket at his request the whole time. He didn't intend on returning her freezing to her mom. As they walked they took another chance to recall the bizarre week they had had. They finally made it back. Isabella gave Phineas a quick kiss on the cheek.

"See you tomorrow Phineas!" She said happily entering her house.

"Yea.. Yea! Tomorrow!" Phineas said mostly to himself after she had gone inside. He walked across the street to his own house. He noticed the house seemed empty. Maybe, if he was quiet, he could just.. The floorboard squeaked and Phineas was mobbed by his family.

"How did it go?"
"Did you have fun?"
"Did she have fun?"
"What did you two do?"
"Are your clothes wet?"
"Where did you take her?"
Phineas smiled and walked to the living room to sit down with his family. They clearly wanted answers to questions that didn't have to be asked. Not that Phineas minded. This last week had been one of the most fun ever and it ended on his long awaited best day ever. Nothing was going to bother Phineas ever again if life kept up like this. And if anybody knew Phineas they knew his life would only get better at anything.

The End
