Ferb is back! He got back late last night and somehow found us. There is no question in my mind that he is some sort of spy as well. He just moves too fast. I could see a fire rekindle in Phin as he led him to a chair after he opened to the door to find him standing there. Ferb looked worn out, but refused to freshen up until he time to talk to Phin. I could see that me sitting down beside Phin to listen to what he had to say concerned him. It made me so proud when Phin had told me that I was getting really good at reading people's expression. So now I could see the conversation the two where having. Once reassurance had been given, the exchange of information began.
Ferb produced maps and written records from his pockets. He laid them on the coffee table we had in the main living area. Phin leaped at them like a hungry dog to steak, eyes darting from one document to another. I was a bit overwhelmed by his enthusiasm and Ferbs silence. I really mean it! Ferb never said a word and never raised a hand to stop Phin. He just sat back and watched. After about twenty minutes of this, I excused myself.
Ferb nodded as I rose, which told me he understood my reasoning. Phin was scanning maps as I walked away. I felt a little sad he hadn't noticed me leaving. But after all the attention he has given me over the past two months, one night meant nothing. Plus there was the fact that this was the first time he has seen his friend in a while and there was a ton in information to go over. So I went to bed and left the two to work.
When I came out in the morning, Phin was fast asleep on the couch. Ferb and his papers where gone. But I saw that fresh maps, books, and papers had replaced them on the table. Phin looked so cute stretched out like he was. I could see he stayed up long into the night working on things. It was interesting that Ferb was gone. But Phin told me later that he still needed to make his report to his commanders.
The mail came about an hour after that and gave us a rare treat. No appointments for the entire day. I decided to not wake him and let him get store up some sleep that he would most likely not get in the coming days. Leaving the letter about the schedule and a note from me explaining my plans on the table in front of him, I left to see a few friends.
That's right! I have made some other friends now. I almost have a real life. There was a woman's club that met near by and some how I managed to get invited into this group. We work on local projects for the community and help out others in need. I am very happy to have found more stuff to do. Not that working with Phin hasn't been great, more on that later, but it's nice to be around other women.
My group is called the Fireside group. They told me they got the name from being able to do almost anything with fire, thus fire was on their side. I think it's a neat play on words, but I digress. We are currently gathering food for the less fortunate. So we get in groups of three and either go to local businesses or door to door asking for donations. It has nothing to do with fire, but not everything requires fires.
I had been trying to help Phin more before I found this group. I would organize notes, get refreshments, and do other things a potential wife might do. He is grateful, as he always is, but didn't really notice it much. That is when I bumped into a lady at the market and she started telling me about this club of women. I was interested, sort of, but didn't really want to go with out Phin knowing about it. But she insisted that I was perfect for the club and that I should to the next meeting. It just so happen that it was that day, not thirty minutes later.
The next day I left Phin to do the schedule by him self. He really seemed taken aback that I wasn't staying. Serves him right! If you want this girl, you have to work at it too. I think he might be thinking along the same line because I have seen him go into three jewelry stores since then. But I shouldn't get my hopes up; there could be a hundred other reasons for a man to enter a store that has a massive amount of engagement rings. I mean, he might be getting a watch that I have never seen him with. Or getting a present for his mother he has not seen in years because of station over seas.
I really need to work on my excuses.

Wow…just wow.
Wait, I already used that opening. Curses! And I am writing this in pen too. There goes my originality with opening lines..
Anyway, Phin told me about this holiday they celebrate back in American called Saint Valentines Day. It's a day about love and the ones you care for. It sounds so sweet and romantic. So, he wanted to something nice for me. So he took me on a horse drawn carriage ride in the country and gave me a lovely set of pearl ear rings. It wasn't everything I hoped it would be when he told me about the holiday, but it wasn't bad by any means.
But this is when I started noticing something about him. Like I said before, I am getting good at reading expressions. Phin is good, but not perfect. He hides behind a very good mask of humor and optimism, but there are a few things that cause him to slip. Like when he gave me the ear rings, I acted like I was looking at them, when really I was looking at his face. I saw his lips part twice like he wanted to say something, but held back. So I am thinking he want to confess his love for me, but just couldn't. It's really annoying!
Ferb has been back and forth, just like before, only Phin has not stopped seeing people at the apartment. He says them coming to him allows him to process things faster. I still am not sure what that means, but I get more time with him so it's a win all the way around. Ferb managed to get a place right next to us and has a key to our place. He has sat in a few meeting, but says that my presence there is more vital then his. I guess he saw the same advantage that Phin saw at having me in the room. That means he is running around doing this and that. I still don't know what he is doing. All I can say is that he takes papers when he leaves and comes back with different ones.
I have also noticed that when they go out together, Phin's hands are always half covered in what looks like black grease or dust when he gets back. It's only happened twice, since Ferb has only been back five days. But it makes me think they are building or repairing something. Who know? Off to bed now.
February 15 also mark a day Britain starting doing something, know what? Review.
