I am rather proud of how the last chapter turned out, but now it is time to write another. And every one who takes the time to read the authors note at the end can have a cookie

Piano-Man aka PhinbellaFanatic: Thank you.

14AmyChan: I honestly don't know if it's going to be a painful heartbreaking scene but I will try to make it interesting.

Skypan: Ipsiusnesciensquod tutam multislinguis, … um if your love life is nothing so how can it be nothing when you compare it to something? … did I just answer my own question?

Disclaimer: I don't own anything or anyone except Erick and Sean (but he's an extra so I don't really care)

(Phineas's POV)

(Friday afternoon)

We had a lot of fun with the virtual landscape over the weak; we traveled to the Himalayas, Antarctica, the Atlantic ocean, someplace filled with trampolines, and most recently the moon. But after we all left the virtual landscape it finally disappeared "oh man, I bat the other fireside girls would have loved to see that" Gretchen said.

"Speaking of which when are they getting back?" Erick asked.

Gretchen shrugged "in about three hours or so" It was at that point that I saw Buford grab Baljeet and run from the backyard as if in a hurry or something, it was shortly after that, that Erick and Django said there goodbye's and also left. That left Gretchen "so Phineas if you don't have anything else planed I was thinking maybe you and I could … catch a movie … or something?"

My heart rate picked up slightly 'Gretchen's asking me out? Do I even like her like that?' I thought

"Not like a date or anything just like … seeing a movie"

I silently breathed a sigh of relief 'she's not asking me out' "that would be nice Gretchen" Ferb had gone inside before the virtual landscape disappeared to go to the bathroom so I couldn't ask if he wanted to come along, and truth be told, I didn't want Ferb to come with us, I wanted to spend some alone time with Gretchen to see if I liked her. I grabbed her hand and together we walked to the movie theater.

(Ferb's POV)

I was listening in on Phineas from inside the house 'he's going out on a date with Gretchen?' I could feel my heart start to ach 'why is he going out on a date with Gretchen?' for a few short seconds a thought came into my head 'did he really never feel anything for Isabella? Is me dating her really making him want a girlfriend of his own?' I shook the thought from my head and decided that I would ask him more about it when he got home.

(Erick's POV)

While I was walking home I started to think about what I would say to Katie when I saw her next. I broke my phone recently and I had only gotten it replaced this morning 'would she actually believe that I broke my phone? She knows that I can't get that angry that easily' this was true. I was born with a defect that caused me to … spontaneously calm down when my heart rate picked up, something about my mind not being able to process the stress or something like that, whatever the case I can't get angry to the point of losing control, I just threw my phone against the wall because I wanted to avoid talking to Irving that much. (A.N. please note that Erick is a fictional character, as is the condition he has) But I digress, I knew that Katie might believe that I actually broke my phone somehow I just needed to think of a reason that would cause it to break 'I'll think about it some more later' just then my new phone rang, I looked at the color I.D. and froze 'Katie' I slowly picked it up "Hi Katie"

"Hi Erick" she said with a sarcastic tone "glad that you finally have your phone on for once"

Fear grew within me as I started to scratch the back of my head "ya funny story about that …" I paused.

"I'm listening"

I sighed and decided to just come clean 'how bad could this actually turn out?' "I broke it shortly after I got off the phone with you"

"How?"

"Well …" I started "after I got off the phone with you Irving called also asking for a favor and to avoid doing another favor I … threw my phone against a wall"

I held my breath and waited for her to yell or lecture me, but what I heard was laughter "really? Irving?"

"Ya" I sad weakly

"Okay then, how about we hit the movies tomorrow?"

I was overjoyed that she wasn't angry "that sounds great, when should we meet?" (Neither of us could drive)

"I'll give you a call, just be sure not to break your phone this time, okay?"

"Okay, I'll see you tomorrow"

"Bye" she hung up her phone.

I froze for a second before speaking one final thing into the inactive speaker "I love you Katie"

(Baljeet's POV)

Buford had dragged me to my house where we were going over the rules of being a wingman "now remember she has to like you but not like you" Buford repeated to me

"I really don't think that that's going to be a problem Buford" I said in a depressed tone.

"What's the matter Baljeet? Still thinking about which girl is the obvious choice that I said earlier this weak?"

"HOW COULD I NOT?!" I shouted "how is it that everyone but me has figured out who this obvious choice is? I've asked Erick, Django, even Phineas and they all say the same thing; that I have to find out who it is for myself" I sighed "and to make matters worse, what is the other girl going to think when I don't choose her? Will she think that I'm mean and not want to be my friend anymore?" I buried my face in my hands, then after a few moment of self pity I was hit with a realization "friend" I said to myself.

"Looks like someone had a moment of realization" Buford mocked.

I ignored him and started pacing around the room "Buford! I figured out which girl I'm really in love with!"

(Django's POV)

I was headed to a juvenile hall where I heard that one of the old gang is being held 'what do I expect to gain from this?' I thought as I walked over to the hall 'I mean it's not like this person would know anything about Connor now, would he?' I had made an appointment earlier and said that he was an old classmate of mine. As I got to the hall I started to have second thoughts 'what if this get's people into more trouble than it gets them out of?' I took a deep breath and started walking in. I handed over all my metal, was given the breefing about my stay escorted to the room, bla bla bla you know how it is. "Hi Sean" I said as I walked into the room.

He lifted his head slowly to look at me "what do you want?" he asked me with a voice full of venom.

I swallowed and took a seat "you know just visiting and stuff, it has been a long time right?"

He shook his head "whatever" he said as he leaned back in his chair, after a few seconds he leaned forward again and looked at me "do you know a guy named Connor"

Although I was shocked at his question it kinda made sense that he would want to know about his old group leader "big guy, blond hair, ugly face, junior high bully, and the Ex boyfriend of the girl I'm currently in love with? That Connor?"

He let out a small laugh and was about to tell me something when the lights turned off. There were still windows so I could still see him but all the power in the building seemed to go off "looks like another blackout" he said. He looked at me the his expression turned serious "you want Connor out of the picture right?"

I hesitated "kinda, I don't want to kill him or anything but-"

"We have about a minute before security comes in here to escort you out because they can't record what's happening so, there is a hideout in Danville park-"

"I've seen it"

He showed a shocked expression for a second but then shook it off "Connor is an ass, and forced me along with a few other that didn't get caught when I did into joining his little group" he paused "so I made a drive that contains enough info on it to put him away for a very long time, and now that I think about it probably shorten my stay here"

"Because he forced you into doing this"

"Ya, it's in the hideout-" he stopped abruptly as security came in and escorted me out.

'Why did they have to come so soon? I don't even know were in the hideout to look' I quietly sighed, collected my belongings, and walked out 'It's gona take me a while to search the whole place' I shook my head and started heading for home, deciding that I would start looking for it tomorrow.

(Gretchen's POV)

I must say that I was enjoying the time with Phineas. We went to see a space adventure movie and although it was interesting, I would have preferred a Stumbleberry Finkbat movie but whatever. Phineas held my hand all the way out of the theater "so what'd you think" he asked.

"It was really good I'm glad that I got to watch it with you" I smiled at him for a few seconds then I looked at my watch "oh my, the rest of the fireside girls should be back by now, I have to get going so I don't miss the online after camp conversation" I started to walk in the direction of my house then I paused for a second 'might as well' I thought. I turned around, ran back to Phineas and kissed him on the lips "bye Phineas, thank for the movie"

(Phineas's POV)

'Gretchen just kissed me?" I thought, 'why would she …' I saw her walking away, then almost without thinking I ran up to her and stopped her "hey Gretchen" I started "I was wondering … if you didn't have plans tomorrow then … would you like to do something?"

She smiled at me "sure I would love to"

"Great, so … I'll walk you home?" she giggled and took my hand.

"That would be fine"

(Isabella's POV)

(A few moments earlier)

I was walking around town in looking for the movie theater, I was always a slight fan of space adventure movies and I had an urge to go see one. I figured that I would go by myself because Ferb has always been more of a fan of Stumbleberry Finkbat movies more than space adventure movies. As I finally got to the movie theater I saw Phineas and Gretchen. I was about to walk over to them to say hi but then I saw something that made my heart break into a million pieces, Gretchen kissed Phineas. I was frozen for a good few minutes as it sunk in, when I finally came to my senses Phineas was walking away with Gretchen, 'what did I do wrong?' I thought. I ran home as fast as I could, not looking back for a moment 'why is this happening?' I couldn't stop the tears from flowing down my face all the way home. When I finally got home I ran into my room, locked the door, and threw myself on my bed 'Phineas never really had any feelings for me?' I thought 'why? After all we've been through, after all I've done, why doesn't he have feelings for me?' I continued to cry it out on my bed as I slowly attempted to fall asleep.

(Phineas's POV)

(Later that night)

I had made it home and was currently walking out of the shower and into Ferb and my shared room "ah what a wonderful day it's been" I looked at Ferb who looked like he was already asleep, then I walked over to my bed and sat down "well time to take this thing off" I said reaching up to the patch on my shoulder.

As I started to peel it I heard Ferb's voice "what might that be Phineas?" he asked. I froze then looked over to his bed and noticed that he was still up.

Thinking quickly I decided to go with what Erick told me to tell Ferb if he found out "it's an experiment that Erick asked me to help him with" I said as I started to peel off the patch and throw it away (it has been a weak after all).

"What's it supposed to do?" Ferb asked in a curious tone.

"I don't know, Erick said that to eliminate the placebo effect I'm to remain in the dark about what this thing does, truth be told I don't even know if this thing actually does anything"

"Why's that?"

I came up with another lie "Erick said that he has a few people helping him, some have patches that actually do stuff while others have just adhesive bandaids" Ferb just looked at me like I was evil or something "what is it Ferb?"

"Why do I have the feeling that you're hiding something from me?"

I threw my hands up in the air "I don't know, you could always tell when I'm lying somehow, so you tell me, am I lying?" Ferb shook his head and put it on his pillow 'that was to close' I thought as I put my head down, as I continued to lay in my bed I realized one thing as the patch wore off, I had not developed feelings for Gretchen.

(Gretchen's POV)

'Why did I kiss him?' I thought 'I know that I'm not in love with him so why did I do it' I continued to toss and turn in my bed, there was no spark, no feeling of bliss, no … nothing, I wasn't falling for Phineas and I probably wouldn't 'now I have to explain to him that it was a misunderstanding' I continued to toss and turn until I finally fell asleep.

IMPORTANT! As some of you know I have come up with another story idea. The problem is that I'm already working on three now and a fourth is coming out this Saturday. Four stories is my cap for in progress, so what I need from everyone is for you to vote on what story I do next. I've set up a poll and everyone who has a preference on my next story please choose.

Please review.
