Okay, last chapter Ferb was busted. What's gonna happen now?

"According to this, it says that you're not giving yourself enough free time recently, and that it's time to relax." Adyson declared out loud. "Well, that makes sense. Gretchen always needs to relax."

"This is a waste of time." I muttered under my breath, as I rolled my eyes.

I was having all the girls over to my place today. That's all I needed. Girl time. With NO Phineas and NO Ferb. They could just do whatever the heck they wanted. I never did anything wrong! I was the perfect date! I was the perfect sex partner! And until they realized it, I was perfectly fine with ignoring them.

But once again, the girls decided to do something bizarre. We were checking our horoscopes. Those things are all lies. Anybody could sit and write down some personality traits. And if you really believe that junk, you'll believe that's how you act, no matter what it says. Like when Candace turned emo because of a magazine. Or like how my stupid friends are acting now.

"I heard that!" yelled Adyson. "Izzy!"

"Quit it or you guys aren't getting anything!" I called back. I was in the kitchen, making one of my favorite guilty pleasures: hot chocolate with ice cream. It's got a little bit of everything you could want in a dessert. Normally I don't bother making it for other people, but they were my friends and I was a pushover.

I walked over with a tray and handed one out to everyone. "Now what is so interesting about these horoscopes again?" I said, as I sat down on the ground in front of the couch. Adyson, Holly, Gretchen, and Milly were squished together on it, Ginger was on the recliner, and Katie and I were on the ground on pillows.

"It tells you what to expect day-to-day or in your love life." Adyson replied.

"That's garbage." I replied. "People just make that up online."

Gretchen nodded. "It's true. Horoscopes can be created by anybody with a computer."

Adyson frowned. "You at least have to agree that the general profiles fit people pretty well." She turned to me. "Isabella, what's your sign?"

"Leo." I said, rolling my eyes.

"Leo, Leo…" She muttered under her breath as she scrolled down the webpage she had open on her laptop. "Leos have a cheerful view of life. You are supremely confident with a natural ability to attract attention to yourself. People can't help but respond to your warm glow and you will bask in the sunshine of all the praise and approval that comes your way. Leos make strong leaders and loyal lovers. The negative to Leos is that they can become conceited or self-centered. They hate when people steal their spotlight and they can easily go from gracious leader to arrogant dictator."

"It does not say that!" I said.

"Does too!" Adyson said cheekily, turning the laptop to show me.

"That's exactly what Isabella is like!" declared Holly.

"Holly!" I complained. I had to admit it was kind of accurate.

"And I did not make that up. Obviously, horoscopes make sense." Said Adyson.

"What about compatibility?" asked Ginger.

"Yeah yeah!" said Milly. "Do Isabella and Phineas!"

I covered my face with my hands. "Would you girls just stop?"

"What's Phineas?" Adyson asked.

"I think he's a Leo too. His birthday is just before Isabella's." Gretchen said.

I heard Adyson rapidly typing, and I couldn't help but peek through my fingers, wondering what she would say.

"Two Leos know how to have fun together. But both Leos can be obstinate, and neither is often willing to give up their rule over the jungle. Sometimes, one may find the other obnoxious. Sometimes two Leos work and sometimes they don't."

I sighed. This was basically what I had been thinking about for a long time now. Phineas and I are great friends, but there was no knowing if a romantic relationship between us would ever work.

I spooned my melting ice cream into my mouth. I just wanted to enjoy the sweet taste of comfort in the form of chocolate. Unfortunately, somebody suddenly started banging on my door.

"Uggh, who is that?" Katie complained, covering her ears.

"I have no idea!" I called over the banging.

"OPEN THE DOOR! IT'S BUFORD AND BALJEET!"

"Okay, and now I know. One minute, I'm coming!" I said. I got up and opened the door. Buford almost flew in. "What is it?" I asked them.

"I want no part of this." Baljeet replied, and he walked over to sit next to Ginger and the girls. They were all staring at Buford, who was jiggling around like he had to go to the bathroom, with a creepy smile on his face, like he had a secret.

"What's the matter with you?" I asked.

"I have to tell you something." He whispered.

"Shoot." I said.

"No, THEY…" He gestured towards the girls. "Might hear."

I gave him a strange look. "Okaaaay… " I walked with him into my room and shut the door. "Why can't you tell the girls?"

"Because she might be one of them." He said.

"Who?" I asked suspiciously.

"Ok, so you know how Ferb's been acting weird lately? Sneaking off, acting moody, and flaking on us?" I nodded very slowly. "He's been sleeping with some girl!"

"WHAT!" I screamed. He stared at me. "I mean… what?"

"I know, I couldn't believe it either. He's being friends with benefits with her."

My eye was twitching. I'm sure it was. "How do you know this?"

"He told me. Now, I've already eliminated Vanessa, Wynne, Ginger, and Gretchen. Now, that means it could still be Katie, Holly, Milly, or Adyson, so that's why I-"

"Hold up!" I said, interrupting him. "Did you just say Ferb TOLD you?"

He shrugged. "Well, yeah. He had to. You see, me, Baljeet, and Phineas caught him-"

"Baljeet and Phineas know too?" I exclaimed, interrupting him again.

"Yeah."

AAAHHHGHRGH! He was dead. Dead! I was going to his apartment and strangling him with my bare hands. Then, I'd sell his dead body on the Internet. Under the label: Body Of A Stupid British Friend Who Doesn't Say A Damn Thing But Who Still Can't Keep A Fucking Secret. Then, I'd buy him from myself, and use a flamethrower to…

"Isabella! Yoo hoo!" Buford broke me from my psychotic thoughts. "Are you going to help me find who she is or not?"

"Why would we want to do that? Ferb can do whatever the hell he wants in his free time! It's none of your damn business, Buford Van Stomm!" I was furious, but I said every word in a disgustingly sweet tone. Buford looked scared. Good. I'm one of the only people who can get him to back down sometimes. "You guys should leave now."

Buford ran out of the room. "Time to go, bud."

"Umm, okay. Bye girls! Bye Isabella! Ginger, I am going to call you later!" Baljeet called out as Buford tried to drag him away.

"What was that all about, Isabella?" Gretchen asked as I sat back down.

"Nothing." I said tiredly. I sat down again, and picked up my mug. It was cold and all the ice cream had melted away. Whatever.

I tried to get back into the conversation, but I couldn't. I just couldn't. I felt tears in my eyes. Ferb, of all people, had betrayed me. He had broken Rule 1. I suddenly turned towards the girls.

"Hey guys, guess what? I have a friend-with-benefits!"

Oh man, what's next? What is she doing? Only I know. Because I'm magical. *Turns into a flying unicorn and soars away*
