Chains
Chapter 5
Buford's POV
After a goodnights sleep, some soup, cough medicine and cuddling with Phineas, I was ready to go back to school, my new boyfriend said he would meet me there after going home to shower and change. It was still rainy and stormy outside but even the weather couldn't bring me down from my high, until I saw Isabella in front of my locker. Me and Phineas never really discussed whether we'd go public or if we should tell our friends anything really, I still can't believe that we're even going out!
I suddenly felt nervous when I looked her in the eye, "Hey Izzy, wassup?" Her smile turned to a frown and her hands were on her hips, "You're not going to stop calling me that are you?" I could feel my smile coming back, "Nope." She rolled her eyes her smile coming back "Whatever Buffy, anyways how're you feeling?" I shrugged, "Better than yesterday, still a little sick but I'll live." She flipped her waist length black hair over her shoulder, wrapping her arm around mine as we walked to class, "Good to hear, then you can tell me how you and Baljeet made up."
Before I could say anything Ferb walked right up to me, "We need to talk, NOW." Isabella let go of my arm as he grabbed my hand leading me to an empty classroom, closing the door behind him. "Is it true that you and Phineas are together?" I could feel the blood leave my face, so this is how I die? A beyond pissed off Ferb? Don't get me wrong, I can hold my own when it comes to a fight but an angry Ferb is still something to be cautious of.
He finally turned around to face me and I could see the fire in his eyes, I nodded. He moved closer to me and I could feel myself slowing inching backwards. "Buford, do you like Phineas?" I nodded, it's like I forgot how to speak, he pushed his hair back, "Fine, now you know I love Phineas with all of my heart so I'll just let this play out, I don't want to get in the way of his happiness or relationships, however…" He grabbed my shirt with his hands, "If I find out that you were using him to get back at Baljeet-" it was my turn to get mad, "I swear I would never do that and you know it!" We looked into each other's eyes for a long time, finally he let go and smiled, "You're right, ex-bully or not, I know you'd never use him, but if you break his heart, I will end you." I smiled back, "Fair enough." He grinned and turned to leave, "Wait Ferb, what if Phineas breaks my heart?" he looked back and shrugged, "I guess I'll have to give him a good spanking." He winked and unlocking the door, he left.
I rolled my eyes, what a perv; I walked out of the room and bumped into Phineas, accidently knocking him down. I easily pick him and his books up, "Good morning Buford!" I grin, "Mornin babe." His smile got wider as he blushed lightly, I looked at my phone and the screen read 8:23AM, still 7 minutes to get to class and I noticed just how empty the hallway was. I wrap my arm around my boyfriend's shoulders and walked him to class, his face beet red as we walked down the hall, before he walked into the room, I took a quick look around and stole a kiss, laughing at his even redder face as I made my way to homeroom.
Three and a half boring hours later, the bell rung for lunch which made me a little excited to see Phineas, I walked to my locker to get my textbook for math when someone bumped into my shoulder, I look to my left and as luck would have it, there was Baljeet. I helped pick his stuff up as he dusted himself off, he looked at me and gave me a small smile, "Thanks Buford." I nodded, closed my locker and made my way to the cafeteria when he grabbed my arm, "Can we talk?" A large part of me wanted to say no, I wanted to run and punch his boyfriend in his perfect face and I just wanted Baljeet, instead I take deep breath, exhaled and looked at him. "Make it quick, I'm hungry." We made our way to an empty classroom and I closed the door, he sat on a desk and sighed.
I looked at the wall clock, 11:57AM, so that still leaves us with like 40 minutes left for lunch, I looked his way, "You have 5 minutes." He took a deep breath and looked out the window, "Buford, why don't you like Chad?" I could feel my mouth drop open, that's what he wanted to talk about? I felt my anger rise though I tried to keep calm, "I don't like him." He looked my way and I stared into those chocolate brown eyes, "But why not?" I shrugged, "I don't need a reason, is that it?" I turned to the door with my hand on the knob, "Are you sure its not because you're jealous?" I felt a pain in my heart, "Why would I be jealous? You can date who you want and quite frankly he can have you." With that I walked out the classroom and slammed the door on my way out. FUCK…
