Isabella quietly snuck into the science lab where her chemistry class was held.

This was a tradition she held all year, coming to class early after lunch and

sit in her usual seat. What she did when she got there varied from completing

homework to setting up early for the class. Today, however, she was jut there to

think.


"Phineas, there's something I need to tell you".

"What now Isabella? I'm trying to text Raquel".

"She's cheating on you with Frederick".

"This is another plot to break us up isn't it? It won't work. I know about your

little crush on me, and I don't see how you ever thought you had a chance. I

love Raquel and not you."

"B-but-"


BRRING!

The bell to begin 4th period rang, thankfully pulling Isabella out of her

daymare. But her troubles started up again when she looked to the door and saw

Phineas walk in, she had forgotten that they were lab partners. She nervously

looked away as Phineas sat down and slumped in his seat.

'This is it' Isabella thought, 'get it together so you can apologize and warn

him about Raquel'.

Isabella turned and looked at Phineas, opening her mouth to speak. However, she

couldn't say anything because her teacher, Mr. Doofenshmirtz, walked in.

Isabella couldn't see how he was allowed to teach at all, he was absolutely

insane. He had a strange voice, made everyone call him Dr., claimed he was evil,

and always went on and on about this platypus whom he said was his nemesis.

Phineas had sometimes confided in her that he thought his platypus, Perry, was

the nemesis Mr. Doofenshmirtz talked about, but would then laugh it off,

platypuses don't do much, especially be a secret agent.

Apparently today in class they were supposed to design their own 'inator',

whatever that was. Mr. Doofenshmirtz released them to their own devices.

Isabella turned to Phineas. She started to apologize but he spoke at the same

time.

"Phin-"

"Izzy-"

"You go first-"

"You go first-"

"No you go first-"

"No you go first-"

"Fine-"

"Fine-"

"I'm sorry!"

"I'm sorry!"

Isabella laughed. "Phin, I'm sorry for hurting your feelings. I'm happy for you,

I really am."

Phineas looked into her eyes. "It's okay, and I'm sorry too for jumping to

conclusions, I should have known that isn't what you ment".

"So, friends again?"

"Friends."

Isabella was glad that Phineas had forgiven her. 'One objective down, now all I

have to do is tell him about Raquel...'

Isabella glanced at Phineas, who was vigorously drawing a contraption for their

assignment. She gulped and just went for it.

"Phin," she squeaked out, "there's something you should know."

"Yeah Izzy?" Phineas replied cheerfully, "what is it?"

Isabella saw the gleam in his eyes that indicated he was in a good mood. She

suddenly felt guilty for telling him something that would destroy him. She saw

him waiting in anticipation of her statement, so she blurted the first thing

that came to her mind.

"Raquel is...umm...she is...uhhh...she's gonna sing Gitchi Gitchi Goo

in the talent show tonight."

"Oh" Phineas replied, looking a tad bit dissapointed, "that's a good choice."

'Stupid stupid stupid' Isabella angrily thought,'you're such a chicken.'

"Alright children, pass up your plans so I can use them to take over- I mean so

I can grade them." Mr. Doofenshmirtz called, causing Isabella to look up in

shock. The period couldn't have possibly passed by already, could it? Sure

enough when Isabella looked at the clock, it showed that there was only five

minutes left in class.

'I wonder where the time went?' Isabella thought to herself.

The bell rang a few minutes later, and Isabella gathered her things and headed

to her favorite class of the day, creative writing.
