I know it's been a while again, but I kind of have a reason this time:D I had written almost the entire chapter, but then my computer crashed and I forgot to save my work before it did. So now I have to re-write this entire thing. Buut I'll keep my hopes up! On to the stooory…
Phineas's POV
You know that feeling when you wake up one day and realize that you're gonna do something horrible that day like, going to the dentist or have a big test in school, and all you want to do is lie down in your bed and die? Yeah, this is one of those days.
The following two weeks has gone by about as slow as a snail climbing up the Eiffel tower. Every minute has felt like hours and it feels like I was only slowly awaiting my death. Well, now my death is only minutes away, and I'm currently putting my executioner's luggage in the car. With other words, Isabella, yes. It's 7am Saturday morning and I've never been so unexcited for something, except my father's funeral perhaps.
Mom flashes me a smile when I'm done. "Good job, sweetie! Now we're ready to go! Get into the car honey."
I nod quietly and walk around the car to the backseat behind the driver's seat. And from the moment I sit down in this car, my three weeks of hell will begin. But hey, there's no turning back now, is it? I can only sit down and smile. Or don't smile, I don't think it matters.
I take a deep breath, aware that it will be my last free, fresh air for quite a while now. I open the door and sit down in the car, Isabella sitting to the right, looking at her phone. She doesn't even seem to notice that I've sat down beside her yet. It's like she's in her own sphere, one I am not acquainted with. But I guess, if she never will be willing to let me into this sphere, I will never know either. And that's nothing but her loss.
I turn my head to look out through the window, from this moment on ignoring her.
Isabella's POV
Even though I hate to admit it, I have been looking forward to this. And yeah, I know my friends are probably on their way to Florida by now(well, they're probably sleeping for the moment, but in a couple of hours), but I can't say I will spend my Spring Break in hell. More like, spending it in paradise! Of course I have been looking forward for this vacation.
It's just so confusing having Phineas coming along. I mean, my opinion about him is already foggy and unclear as it is, I really don't need more time around him to learn about him and his true self, then, it would just become foggier. And in the end, I would find myself lost in the fog. That's a risk I don't want to take, so I will do my best to stay away from him… even though it doesn't feel right in my chest.
I turn to look at him at the other side of the backseat, examining his face and searching for any signs of him wanting to look at me. But no, nothing. He's just staring blankly out of the window, and it's like he didn't even see I sat here when he came in.
I guess he listened to me when I said we should ignore each other… but ignorance doesn't feel so very good.
Short chapter, I know. But in the next chapter, they will be on the ship and I didn't want to write about their whole trip to the ship. I actually did- then it all disappeared:-)
But the next chapter will be longer, I promise! And I will focus mostly on this story, so my other stories will be put aside for a while. I'm sorry for those who read it, but I will update those when I have the time as well! It's just that I have so incredibly much to do in school now and even though it's autumn-break next week, I will have to study for tests the week after…
But I will write more, I promise! Just have patience, please. All good things to those who wait, am I right?
But remember, reviews really make me write faster, they encourage me so much! I'll see you all soon and I love you!
