It was the annual sleepover night at the Flynn-Fletchers as the gang stood around an unopened box in the middle of the living room, staring each other down. There was always that awkward moment after everyone arrived where no one was quite sure what to do. This was one of those moments.

Who would sleep on the air mattress?

Normally they would fight it out, playing an alteration of "king on the mountain", but since two had to share, everyone was hesitant to speak up. For Isabella, she wouldn't have a problem with it if she were with the fireside girls, but seeing as she was with her group of male friends...there was only one boy she wanted to share it with and she couldn't guarantee he would speak up. And of course, the boys didn't really want to share with each other.

"I think Baljeet and Buford should take a turn," Phineas suggested, looking at the frenemy duo across from him.

"Over my dead body," Buford muttered through gritted teeth.

"You know," Baljeet spoke up quickly. "I think Phineas and Isabella should take a turn."

Isabella, who had been talking quietly with Ferb, whipped her head towards Baljeet, her eyes wide in surprise. She had not been expecting that, at all.

"Um...what?" Phineas stuttered, unaware that his best friend had turned a delightful shade of pink next to him. Maybe it was from anger, maybe it was from embarrassment. None of the boys would ever know.

"It is the logical choice, seeing as neither of you have ever had a turn." Baljeet smiled smugly, crossing his arms over his chest.

Baljeet and his logic, Isabella thought with an eye-roll. Though, she couldn't complain.

"Well, I suppose that's fair." Phineas shrugged nonchalantly. "Right, Izzy?" He asked, turning to Isabella, who only nodded.

After some time of wrestling with the plastic air mattress went by, the five of them agreed to play some bored games before going to bed. Ferb won about half of them, the title of "winner" jumping from one person to another during the other half.

During the last game, those who lost watched the last two opponents, Ferb and Phineas, face off before they got bored and retreated to their designated sleeping areas. Isabella kept a dutiful eye on them as she read her book, still interested in the tense game between the two brothers. One minute Ferb would be miles ahead and the next Phineas would be in the lead. No one could tell who the winner was going to be. In the end, Ferb ended up winning, which didn't surprise anybody. Mostly because they weren't paying attention.

"Whoo! Good game, Ferb." Phineas congratulated as he helped put the game away. "That was a close game. I sure got it handed to me."

Ferb chuckled before going into the kitchen as Phineas walked over to Isabella. "Boy, I sure am beat, physically and literally." He said, making Isabella giggle as Phineas decided to plop onto the mattress. He later realized that that was a bad Idea.

Seeing as he was much heavier than Isabella and some air had already leaked out, he sent poor Izzy flying into the air. She squealed, her arms flailing before she landed on her bottom next to the mattress. Everyone in the room instantaneously burst into fits of laughter and giggles as Ferb poked his head around the corner to see what all the commotion was.

Phineas let out a snort and hid his smile behind his hand. "Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry!" He exclaimed, before reaching over to give Isabella a hand.

Isabella laughed. "No big deal," she replied, standing up and brushing off her pajama pants.
"I'd return the favor, but I don't think I'm heavy enough." She joked.

Phineas laughed again as she crawled back under the covers. Ferb turned out the lights and in a matter of minutes they were all out and sleeping soundly.

The next morning, if you had asked Isabella if anything happened that night unknowingly, she would have honestly said no. That was only because Phineas had gotten up first and unwrapped his arms from around her before she even knew.


What do you think? I don't think it's my best, but it's alright. What did think of the end? Cute or nah? Love you all! ~Joy
