You know, it's funny, while I was writing this I completely overlooked the fact that Isabella NEVER actually tells Phineas that she's going to the dance. Seriously, look at the original story in chapter 14, Phineas asks but Isabella doesn't actually tell him that she's going to be there (or why she's going to be there for that matter, she thinks that Phineas still thinks that she is Rica) it's the biggest plot hole I've ever made. And there's another thing as well SPOILER ALERT she never really shows up either, I mean she does as Rica but Phineas tells Isabella that he has something to tell her and Isabella tells him the same thing but she never actually appears at the dance like she never said she was although both said they had something to tell eachother on that day. END SPOILER ALERT. So I've since fixed all it so that plot hole is no longer there, how? Well you'll just have to read and find out.

(Phineas's POV)

After school was out and I was on the bus I got to thinking. How exactly am I going to tell Rica that I know that she is really Isabella and that I'm still in love with her? The question racked my brain all the way home. I figured that I would go online and ask Erick or Buford about it and maybe they could give me some advice. As the buss gulled to my stop I got off and made my way to my room.

"Hi Phineas" My mom greeted me before I could get into my room. "Where's Ferb?"

I took a few steps down the stairs so that my mom could see me when I answered. "Ferb decided to stay at school to work on his new story, he says that he will post the first chapter somewhere around the start of December so he wants to get it started as soon as possible."

"Okay well if you get a chance to talk to him tell him to come home before it gets dark or he's grounded."

I laughed as I walked upstairs. "Okay mom, I will." I logged on to the chat and noticed that no one was there yet so I decided to do some homework until I heard the log in sound.

I froze. 'I can't talk to Isabella yet can I?' I shook the thought from my head and figured that I would try anyway but most likely not get anywhere.

Phineas: Hi Izzy how's school?

Isabella: Well I can't say that it's easy, I'm in a computer class right now so I can't talk for very long or I'll get caught, so What'cha'doin'?

Phineas: Just talking to my best friend, how about you? Oh sorry you already answered that didn't you?

Isabella: Yeah I did so how's life on your end?

I needed to make it look like I still didn't know about Isabella being Rica so that I wouldn't make her cry. If she started crying now then there's no way that I'll be able to tell her that I love her, and if I tell her that I love her first then she might think that I'm unfaithful from Rica's perspective.

Phineas: …I really miss you Izzy … a lot.

Isabella: Well don't worry; I will be back in a few weeks so I won't be gone long this time.

An idea struck in my head (well half an idea really) that would be the night of the winter dance and would be the perfect time to enact whatever plan I can think of.

Phineas: Hey Izzy … well … there's … something important … that I want to talk to you about the next time I see you.

Isabella: Why can't you tell me right now?

Phineas: It's something that I need to tell you in person.

Isabella: Okay then, I also need to tell you something important when I return.

I realized that she probably wanted to tell me either that she loved me or that she was Rica (or both)

Phineas: Okay then, I'm really looking forward to it. As a matter of fact I am looking forward to it so much that I want to run over to you right now so I can tell you.

Isabella: So why don't you?

I smiled at the fact that Isabella slipped up.

Phineas: Because you live two hours away by car.

There was a long pause before she finally responded.

Isabella: Oh that's right I forgot about that. I guess that it felt like I was still in my room because I have lived here so much.

Phineas: Thought you were in class.

There was another pause as I laughed at Isabella's second slip up.

Isabella: Oh yeah, I guess it just feels like I'm in my room because I'm talking to you.

Did she really expect me to believe that? … Oh yeah, she still thinks that I'm completely oblivious … I so want to just run over to her house and make out with her right now. Did I just think that? … yeah, I suppose I did

Phineas: Okay then.

Isabella: Teacher incoming gtg bye.

I leaned back in my chair and closed my eyes 'Okay I know when I'm going to do it, now I just need to know how.'

(Baljeet has signed in)

Baljeet: Hi Phineas What'cha'doin?

Erick: Baljeet do you have a death wish or something?

Baljeet: No why?

Phineas: Because first you tell me that Isabella's in love with me then you steel her catchphrase.

Buford: He did what?

Phineas Buford when did you get on?

Buford: I got on a while ago you just didn't see me. But that still doesn't answer my question.

Phineas: Back at the welcome back party for Isabella and the other fireside girls Baljeet told me that Isabella was in love with me.

Buford: Wow … it's been nice knowing yeah Baljeet.

Erick: so your text said that you wanted to talk to us about something?

Buford: Wait what about the whole thing about Baljeet telling Phineas? Are we not going to talk about that?

Phineas: No but I would like to wait for Ferb and Django first.

(Django has signed in)

(Ferb has signed in)

Erick: Speak of the devil and he shall appear.

Buford: Wait really?

Phineas: Now that were all here I would like to ask you all for some advice on something. Oh and Ferb, mom said that if you're not home before it gets dark then you're grounded.

Ferb: good to know.

Erick: So what do you need to ask?

Phineas: Well this first part might come as a shock to most of you but … I think that Rica might really be Isabella.

Buford: You're kidding.

Erick: Baljeet did you tell him?

Baljeet: No I swear I did not tell Phineas about what I found.

Django: Wait you two knew?

Erick: Well yeah, I found aer the party when I compared a few pictures of the two and realized that she has the exact same body structure as Rica and Baljeet found out when he hacked the school's database and found out that there is no one with the name Rica in any of Phineas's classes.

Buford: Wait something still doesn't add up, firstly Isabella doesn't wear glasses, secondly how did Isabella and Rica talk at the same time on the web chat, and three why is Isabella not at that fancy school?

Erick: To answer your first question she actually wears glasses when she needs to read a lot

Buford: And you know this how?

Erick: Well when I went to get my new glasses for junior high before summer started, I saw her getting fitted for a pair of glasses, I asked her what they were for and she said that she needed them for reading.

Buford: And you didn't bother to share this with anyone?

Erick: No one asked.

Baljeet: To answer your second question all you need to be two people at once on this is a second E-mail account (which you would get when you apply to a school like that) and a laptop which almost everyone has.

Buford: And the third question?

Erick: We will ask her later.

Phineas: You know I expected a lot more people to be surprised about this.

Ferb: Phineas ask the question.

Phineas: Oh that's right. Well here's the simple version, I need to tell Isabella that I know that A. she is Rica and B. she is in love with me.

Buford: I'm not seeing the problem here just tell her.

Phineas: Without making her run away in tears.

Erick: So basically you want to know how to reverse the rotation of the earth, fix world hunger, fix the economy, put an end to all war, and turn Buford into a nice person who always helps the less fortunate and is never mean to someone.

Phineas: In essence, yes.

Buford: Well good luck with that.

Baljeet: Buford!

Buford: Sorry.

Phineas: Well I do have the date, the day of the winter dance, I already told her that I wanted to tell her something when she gets back but I didn't tell her that I would be telling her at the dance seeing as she thinks that I think she won't be able to go so all I need to know is what to do.

Buford: I don't think that there is a way to tell Isabella that you found out that she loves you and that you know that she has secretly been dating you without making her cry.

Phineas: What do you mean?

Django: I don't think Buford knows that you fell in love with Isabella.

Buford: What?

Phineas: Yeah, I fell in love with Isabella during the welcome back party we had.

Buford: Oh … well … that's different then.

Erick: Ignoring Buford for a second, we can't tell you exactly what you should do, it should come from your heart, and all we can do is tell you if it's a good idea or a bad one.

Phineas: Okay, then I think I might have an idea then.

Ferb: Then let's hear it.

So like Before I made a few modifications in this chapter and I had to remove the whole, 'Isabella's birthday happening in December' thing because her birthday is in the summer like all Flynn's or future Flynn's. But in any case, I have my next story all planed out for when this one is done and I hope to work on this one some more tomorrow so until then, Axis23 is out, peace!

Hello, my name is Axis23 and I enjoy torturing characters.
