A/N Okay, so, yeah, please review. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own Phineas and Ferb.
Days of planning went on, with no words between Phineas and Isabella, or at least as few as possible. Whenever they did say something, it was just a short word or two that involved planning. In fact, Phineas would leave the cave a lot, just to take his mind off things. On the other hand, Isabella spent all her time furiously training. She handled her swords or her bow and arrow and used them against a tree or something. Previously, she may have seen to be an excellent fighter, but adrenaline was a huge factor in that. The truth of the matter was that she needed more training, and what better time to do that than now? Ferb spent his days walking around the cave and planning constantly. Although he did occasionally have words, few at that, with Isabella or Phineas. Once when he had left them alone, they almost were killed, in fact, Phineas had been taken prisoner. After the second try, they fought and currently hate each other. Even in the midst of utter confusion, Ferb knew not to leave them alone again.
Anyways, they have been constantly planning. They had to come up with a plan, so cunning and clever that not even Baljeet can work around it. Let alone the assassins. Yes, so know Baljeet, the leader (whatever her unknown name is), and the king (to an extent) were out to kill them.
So, in short, they have to come up with a plan that allows them into the castle, past the king and his people, a way to keep the assassins away, and something that can get rid of Baljeet. Not to mention the leader. She has to be taken down, unfortunately. It is the only way.
So far, they figured that much out. They knew that they'd have to lure her back before even getting the chance to sneak into the castle. Any other way was impossible. Not that this one was going to be easy.
After a while, Phineas returns to the cave. Isabella, immediately seeing him, sucks behind the tree. Not to make sure he doesn't see her, just so he thinks she didn't see him. If he thought that he'd either run in the cave or run away. Once he was closer to her, she stepped away from the tree and closer to him, but still kept her distance.
His eyes widened a bit, but then returned to normal. He rolled his eyes slightly, and made to get back in the castle.
"Look , Phineas, this is ridiculous-"
Again, he rolled his eyes. "You don't get it do you?"
"I get that you're going to allow my trust issues affect our friendship- okay that sounded really bad. Umm. Well, -"
"Just stop. Don't humor me." he said. And with that, he was gone.
She watched him walk away, sadness deep in her eyes. 'All I wanted to say was sorry' she thought, in a somewhat depressive way.
Phineas walked into the castle to see Ferb, apparently waiting for him.
"Listen, you two have to make up-"
"No. I'm sorry. It's just-"
Ferb nodded a bit. "I know, but you have to at least be on talking terms. There's no way we can get anything done with you two avoiding each other."
Phineas nodded. "I know…"
With that, he went to his spot, and laid down, ready for this day to be over.
Ferb sighed a bit at the sight, and went to his own spot.
Within minutes, Isabella had done the same. But this time, she cast a longing glance at Phineas. She looked towards her spot, and made to sit down. However, a thought came to her suddenly. She snuck over to Phineas, made sure he was asleep, momentarily snuggled up next to him, kissed him lightly on the forehead, and quickly ran to her spot. She only felt one thing. Two actually. Longing. Longing, and regret. She couldn't live with herself anymore. All she could think about was him. Him and his broken heart. But also, herself. Her and her confusion and mixed feelings.
I suppose you could say, the princess has never experienced love. How could she have? She's been in a castle her whole life. The only guys that were roughly her age that she ever met were either princes or servants. But they were all the same. Well, the servants would be fired, and most likely punished, if they courted the princess. But the princes all wanted to rule more. They wanted to rule their soon-to-be land, and also the princess's future land. They weren't content with enough, they had to have more, and more.
So, in short, the feelings Isabella had were just confusing to her. They were utterly foreign. Never really having a close friend before either, she tended to believe it was just that. She never knew what to think. But now, she knew the difference. She saw a distinct difference between the two. Friends and lovers. And she knew how she felt. However, she also knew how he felt. And that he'd never forgive her. You see, she did something terrible to him. She broke his heart. And almost nothing could repair it. Only know did she realize that.
