Chapter 3 Isabella

Well it was my cue. At exactly 1:00 pm every day I decided I was going to talk to the only guy that ever struck a romantic chord in me. In time I'm sure it would lead up to the relationship that Phineas and I would surely have.

I walked into his back yard. "What ya' doin'?" I asked, my heart a flutter.

"Making a giant building to beat world records!" he said in that Phineas way.

"Cool, mind if my troop helps? They need to earn their construction badges." That was me, always making sacrifices for the troop.

"Sure!" He said, and I was flustered in love again. It was then I decided that I must tell him. How would he ever fall for me if he didn't know I had feelings for him?

"Hey Phineas, can I talk to you alone?" I asked tentatively.

"Sure Isabella!" He replied cheerily.

We walked into his garage and he politely took his yellow construction hat off. "Whatcha want to talk about?"

"Well you see Phineas.." The whole story came out, and as I watched his eyes widen, I was beginning to think I had made a BIG mistake.

"Isabella...I didn't think..." but he was at a loss for words. I could only watch and blush. Before I knew it, I was running away. The tears in my eyes fell to the ground like rain. In my room I just cried. I'd probably ruined the friendship we had! How could I have been so stupid! How could I have looked over the risk it posed? But then again how would I have known it would be so awkward? There were billions of questions burning in my mind, but only one was really important. How could I ever face Phineas again?
