Ch. 2
I don't own Phineas and Ferb.
Enjoy!
Katie POV (After call with Phineas)
Oh my god. I need to talk to the girls about this.
*Ring Ring Ring*
I look at my phone to see a call from Milly
Oh good, I can tell Milly about this.
"Hey Katie, I just wanted to let you know that I'm not gonna be on the bus tomorrow morning, I have to go to the dentist." Milly stated.
I guess I will get a seat to myself tomorrow morning.
"Oh that's ok. But guess who called me?"
"Who?"
"Phineas"
"No way! What did he say?!"
"So you know how I got that note yesterday? Saying to 'tell him how I feel,' well apparently he got a note as well, saying to call me."
"That's crazy."
"Yeah, so I'm guessing that I was supposed to tell him when he called me"
"So whoever wrote your note, also wrote Phineas' note"
"Yeah, I'm assuming so"
"Did you guys talk about anything else?"
"Yeah. So Phineas, being the wonderful, friendly guy he is, asks me if there was anything wrong. He doesn't know I got a note, he just thought he was supposed to call me. He seemed to think there was something I needed to talk to somebody about and for some reason it was him. But he was persistent, after I told him there was a lot on my mind he told me that I should try opening up and get some of it off of my chest. So I basically told him that there's this boy I like that I want to tell him but I can't bring myself to it and it's weighing me down."
"O"
"He told me that if I can't bring myself to tell my crush that I like him that I should do something else instead. He suggested writing a letter and trying to give it to him when I'm ready."
"Ok, that's a decent idea."
"He also said some things that made my day. I'm blushing just thinking about it."
"Well, come on girl. Tell me!"
"After I told him that I couldn't bring myself to tell the guy that I like him, he told me that there's nothing for me to worry about. He told me that anyone would be lucky to have me, and most importantly he said he cares about me!"
"Awww Katie. He totally likes you."
"You think so?"
"If he means those things then yeah, it sounds like it."
"Maybe you're right. Maybe he does! I should tell him."
"Slow down Katie."
She's probably right. I'm going too fast. But if he likes me back that changes everything!
"Sorry Milly, I just never thought he might like me back."
"Katie, I'm very happy for you, it's looking up! But I'm gonna have to let you go, I need to get my homework done."
"Ok, go ahead. I'll see you tomorrow?"
"Yeah, I should be there by lunch."
"Ok, bye!"
"Bye Katie."
Phineas POV (The next morning)
*BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP*
I awoke to my alarm clock to see Ferb already awake and headed to the bathroom. I turn to my alarm clock and it reads 7:16.
Great, I overslept.
I look down at my feet to see Perry still laying down there.
"Good morning Perry."
Time to get moving.
After getting in a quick shower and some new clean clothes I headed downstairs to get some breakfast.
"Good morning Phineas." Dad said.
"Morning Dad." I started. "Where's Candace?"
"She already left for school. She said something about wanting to stop for coffee on the way."
Mom responded.
"Oh, ok."
"Do you want some breakfast? I made eggs." Mom asked.
"Yes please!"
Ferb and I sat down with our scrambled eggs and glasses of orange juice. After scarfing that down it was time to get going.
"Boys, I think your school bus is pulling up." Dad said.
"Ok, Bye mom. Bye dad." I said before we hurried out the door.
Ok, it's Thursday, we're almost done with the week.
After boarding the bus, I noticed that Katie was sitting alone.
Huh, I wonder where Milly is.
"Is this seat taken?" I ask.
"Oh, hi Phineas. And no Milly isn't here."
"Cool" I said as I sat down.
Katie POV (On the bus with Phineas)
Oh no. This might be rough.
"How's it going?" He asked.
"Pretty good."
It's a good thing people talk on this bus, I wouldn't be able to have this conversation on a quiet bus.
"Still thinking about it a lot?"
"Y-yeah."
I'm stuttering again.
"What do you think can get it out of your head?"
"I need to tell you, I mean him."
Did I actually just say that? Oh my god, I let it slip. I'm so screwed..
"Tell me what?"
"Oh, nothing. Sorry that slipped out."
I really hope he didn't pick up on that.
"Oh, well alright then. I just wanted to check in on you."
Wow, he really does care.
"Thanks, Phineas."
Phineas POV (At lunch table)
"So Phineas, did you get another note on your locker today?" Django asked.
"No, I'm guessing it's gonna be a one time thing." I responded.
"Did you end up calling Katie?" Baljeet asked.
"Yeah"
"How'd it go?" Buford asked.
"Fine." I shrugged it off.
"What'd you talk about?" Django asked.
I can't tell them what I talked to Katie about.
"Nothing special."
"Really?" Baljeet asked.
"Yeah," I started. "Probably just someone messing with me."
Katie POV (after school)
After getting some work done for my history class I pulled the note out of my backpack that was left for me this morning.
"Call Phineas and tell him how you feel"
After reading the note about 3 dozen times I figured I should call him and tell him. He deserves to know. The problem is that I don't think I can do it, but I'm damn well gonna try.
Alright, here goes nothing.
*Phone rings*
"Hello? Katie?" Phineas says.
"Hi Phineas."
"Hi Katie, how's it going?"
"Oh, I'm fine. I just called because I got a note on my locker today that said to call you."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
"What do you think that means?"
"What?"
"What does it mean? Like, why are we getting these notes saying to call each other? There's gotta be some meaning to it."
"Oh, I don't know."
This isn't gonna happen, it's gonna have to get forced out of me at this point.
"Yeah, I don't know why you would. Unless there's something else we're missing. This just feels really random."
"I know, d-doesn't it?"
Shit, my stutter is back.
"Are we supposed to do something together? Like figure something out?"
I mean, I would feel better if you figured something out.
"Maybe"
"Katie, are you busy tomorrow night?"
Is it happening? Is he gonna ask me out?
"No, I'm free."
"Great, do you wanna meet up somewhere in person and try to figure some of this out?"
Well, I guess it's close enough.
"Yeah! What do you have in mind?"
"We could go to the mall. Meet up in the food court."
"Ok, I'll be there."
"Great, I'll see you tomorrow."
"Bye Phineas."
"Bye Katie."
Phineas POV
I gotta tell Ferb I'm going out with Katie tomorrow night. He's probably at the library doing homework. That's his new thing now. Whatever, I'll just text him.
*Hey Ferb. I just got off the phone with Katie, and she said she got a note saying to call me. We're gonna go to the mall tomorrow night to talk about it. It just seems like there's a reason for it that we don't know.*
After just a minute I got a text back from Ferb.
*Odd. But how is going on a date going to help you?*
A date, it's not a date.
*It's not a date Ferb.*
It can't be a date, although, I suppose I wouldn't mind dating Katie. But I can't get in that mindset, Katie told me she likes someone. My chances with her would be slim to none.
*I need to tell you-I mean him*
Surely not, surely it's not me. She said that slipped out. And she might've meant something else entirely. Maybe she wanted to just tell me who she likes and got her words mixed up.
Chapter 3 is going to be longer and I'm on fall break next week, so I probably won't upload for around two weeks unless I get bored over the weekend.

Bye!
