Ch. 6

Isabella POV

I want to kill Ferb!

How dare he tell Phineas that I am in love with him! Especially since it isn'ttrue. At least, not anymore. That's why I came over here in the first place.

I wanted to tell Ferb that I really liked him back. And that I didn't regretwhat I did.

Anymore, that is.

I mean, Phineas is great and all, but he can be so clueless and he doesn't likeme like that at all!

Ferb, okay, he may have told his brother that I'm in love with Phineas (which Iwill not drop!), but he also said that he loves me. And he truly cares about

me, and understands me and, he is so perfect!

Well, when he isn't telling Phineas how in love I am with him.

I stand and listen for a while. Ferb tells Phineas about how I am in love with him, how long, and how since the summer solstice, when he saw how broken I was about him ignoring me in Paris, he knew he wanted to be with me, to protect me from all the pain I have suffered. He told Phineas about how hard it's been seeing me love Phineas instead of him, and how he wished that there would be a way to show me he cared.

Ferb told him how he lied to Phineas and never told him how my birthday was a few days ago, just so he could seem perfect and wonderful to me when he gave me my present. No wonder Phineas never got me a present! It did seem unlikely that he would forget. But he barley paid attention to me anyway, so I wasn't sure.

Ferb then told him how he was shocked when I kissed him. And how my reaction to the kiss and seeing Phineas almost broke his heart.

I began to back out of the backyard, obviously, I had heard too much.

But I accidentally performed one of the biggest clichés ever. I stepped on a twig, causing it to snap. Loudly.

I broke into a run for the fence, which I ducked behind, and than hurried away as fast as I could.

Until I got to the front of the house, and got up, and began to walk back, calmly, and as nonchalantly as possible, as if I hadn't heard a word of the

previous conversation.

Phineas and Ferb were in the same position that I left them in. Only they stopped talking about me and were talking about how Perry showed up again. Perry

always goes somewhere during the day, and nobody knows where. My dog, Pinky, does the same thing, actually. Maybe they go to the same place. I ponder this possibility until I realize that I should probably announce my arrival so I don't act like a stalker. Again.

It's sad that I can say again to acting like a stalker. It really is sad.

Anyway, I gather my courage, and say normally, "hey Phineas," and to Ferb, I say as cutely as possible, "hey Ferb, whatcha dooooin?"

My heart starts beating fast when Ferb looks at me with an expression of shock and happiness when he realized that I had not only just came to his backyard, but I had just used my famous catchphrase, which is usually focused on Phineas, on himself.

"Hey Isabella, Candace just came home if your lookin' for her!" Phineas say cheerfully, and oblivious to how his brother looked like he wanted to run over to me and hold me, never letting me go. But before he could approach me, I had to do something with Phineas first.

"Ferb, I need to talk to Phineas for a minute of two. Can you give us a few minutes, please?"

Ferb nodded his head, and quietly left Phineas and I alone in the backyard. His eyes were sad, like a hurt puppy, and for a moment, I thought about running and kissing him again. But I fought off the impulse so I could talk to Phineas about...things.

The situation is kinda funny, last week, talking to Phineas alone would have been perfect, but now, it was just like I was hanging out with just another guy.

Probably because now, Phineas is just another guy.

But I needed to tell him something important.

"Phineas," I started, and took a deep breath before talking as fast as possible, "I used to really like you. Like, more than a friend. However, I've realized that I like someone else now. I just thought that you should know."

I gasped for breath, and then waited for his response. It shouldn't be one of shock, Ferb just told him this. But I needed him to hear it from me. I needed it

to be heard from me.

And I needed him to know that my crush on him had ended, and I'm not still in love with him.

After what could have been a lifetime of waiting, Phineas finally replied.

"sorry."

That was the last thing I thought he would say! What was he sorry for?

"why," I asked him, curious for his answer, "why are you sorry?"

"well, I'm sorry that I didn't realize that you liked me. That you liked me for so many years, and I never noticed. And I wish I could tell you that if I'd

know, things would have been different. But I can't. I would have been more focused on my projects than on you." Phineas said truthfully, "besides, I know a boy who is dying to be with you! Maybe I can help you two on your first date!" my ex-crush was now ecstatic, and I laughed.

"apology accepted," I grinned, than it dawned on me to tease phin a little bit.

Maybe rat out his own brother. "by the way, how did you know that I've liked you for years? I never said that."

Phineas's face turned a shade whiter when he realized what he had just confessed. He is just lucky that I was already here. But I needed Phineas to rat

out Ferb so I could yell at him.

I got lucky for once.

"Ferb might have mentioned it..." he said shakily, and nodded my head in a sophisticated manner. Or, what was probably a sophisticated manner, I'm not

sure.

"thanks, Phineas! Speaking of Ferb, can you tell me what this gadget is? I found it in a present from him, and I can't figure out what it is or does."

Phineas looked at the device and laughed for a moment. "this must be what Ferb has been working on forever! He would sometimes stay up late working on this contraption!" this didn't explain anything, so I asked what it was again. This time I got a straight answer.

"it's a holograph, it shows holograms. Just press the big red button." Phineas went to do "something," and I pressed the red button, curious to what it could

be. The device started glowing, and the middle of it opened to look like a platform. A smaller image of Ferb popped out of the device, and stood on the platform in front of me.

It cleared its tiny throat, and began talking in an adorable British accent.

oooo, i wonder what he tells her!

actually i already know, but still! anyway, the last chapter will be posted tomorrow or something. i dont know yet.

anyway, REVIEW, and ill see ya'll real soon! (lol, i feel like im a part of Disney!)
