All right, here's the second part of my PnF story. Sorry for the pulling, I have my high school year that keeps me busy. Also, need to correct one thing when I was reminded: this fic is actually takes after both MML Season 2 and OWCA Files. (To Doof's part, he has his building repaired but he still has his shed in Murphy residence and he would spend the time there longer than his old building). Besides this, is the characters know that they're cartoons.
AnalogAndAnimation : Thank you for your supporting. also, the part of Prof. Mystery doesn't being used was probably because "Lost in Danville" was happened in an alternative universe, but in my fanfics it exists
ArendAlphaEagle - Yeah, that's also when I realized the mistake 14 minutes after I post it, so I changed the timeline for a bit. Also, I DO hope MML could get a Season 3!
One week later...
Phineas and Ferb were sitting on the backyard. Trying to plan out what they want to do today but failed.
"Aw, I can't think what we should do today. Ferb, do you have any idea?" Phineas asked, but Ferb merely shook his head.
"I can't believe it." Phineas sighed, "We usually had a lot of Big Ideas to spend the day but now I can't even come up with one. Man, I hope there's a way to seize the day. Too bad we can't be able to take a visit to the other cartoons."
"From what I've heard, the portal to the other cartoons was shut for a while for unknown reasons." Ferb explained.
"Ugh, I actually hope that I can pay a visit to Mickey Mouse, you know, when we first met he is really nice and we even helped him invent for a day." Phineas just sighed, "At least we're still allowed to visit him and the other cartoons. Well, what else could we do?"
"Why not ask the Fireside Girls if they have patches need to get?" Ferb asked.
"Well, that's not a bad idea... Oh, hey Perry." Phineas suddenly paid attention the seemingly mindless platypus, smiled, "You know, Ferb? I guess Perry is really lucky. He's a platypus and he doesn't do anything except for suddenly disappear into no...where..."
Suddenly realization hit him.
"Hey, Ferb. I know what we're gonna we do today! Why don't we follow Perry to check up where he had gone? We're always wondering where he runs off to, why don't we see for ourselves? Maybe Perry has his own little adventure that we didn't know."
Ferb nodded and gave a thumb up. At the same time, Candace came to them with a unusually normal look.
"All right, boys. Have you ever got some ideas to do today?" The teenage girl asked. Now she doesn't need to worry about busting her brothers. A few weeks ago, Linda finally saw one of the boys' inventions. Despite being shocked that the boys actually does something like this everyday, it didn't take her too long to accept this fact. So after some talk Linda agreed to give support to her boys to invent, although for some reasons most of the inventions still goes disappeared when she came to check out. And also since her mom had found out, Candace realized that there is no need busting them, so she began to enjoy her brothers' activities every day.
"Actually Candace, we're not gonna plan too much today, we're just gonna follow Perry to check up where he has gone. Care to join us?"
Candace started to consider the offer, "Actually, why not? Sure, count me in." At the same time, they saw Isabella, Baljeet and Buford walking towards them.
"Hey, Phineas. What'cha doin'?" Isabella asked.
"Oh, hey Isabella. We were just planning to follow Perry to see where he has gone. Wanna join us?" Phineas replied.
"Sure, The Fireside Girls and I were planning to get the Tracking Patch anyway." Isabella smiled, "All right, troop, ready for it?"
"Yeah!" All the Fireside Girls came in and cheered.
"Wow, it's just on the schedule, Perry was gone." Baljeet looked around but didn't see Perry.
"And since how long had that mud pit been there?" Buford added when he took notice of a mud pit with a clear track of footprints.
"That must be Perry's tracks!" Phineas realized, "Come on guys, let's follow him!"
The gang immediately followed the tracks, unaware that Irving was hiding behind the fence and looking at everything. When the gang were out of his sight, he took out a walkie-talkie and replied.
"Agent Irving reporting, they had followed Agent P. Over."
"Roger that, Temporary Agent I." Monogram replied as he turned to Doofenshmirtz, "Is that thing prepared, Heinz?"
"Present and accounted for, Francis. Behold! The Remember-inator!" Doof declared as he took out a ray gun, "Also, is it necessary to bring those Fireside Girls? I, I should have brought some money to buy their muffins."
The gang continued their search on Perry through his footprints, though much to their confusion, they could swore that Perry was actually smarter than how they thought, because they found the platypus' tracks are in confusing shapes as if some signals.
"Hmm, It seemed that Perry wanna play some game with us." Phineas smiled.
"Well, what are we waiting for?" Buford replied, "Let's gonna find him because I'm sure that I'm gonna win this one!"
"Fireside Girls, it's time to put the 'Platypus-sitting' patch to use!" Isabella said as all the Fireside Girls were ready for this.
"Platypus-sitting?" Baljeet asked in confusion.
"We once took care of Perry when you guys were gone for one week." Ginger explained.
"Although most of the days he vanished and we had to spend a long time looking for him." Holly added.
Meanwhile, Candace was doing the search with the gang but suddenly her phone went off, "Hello? Oh, hi Stacy. Sorry I'm kinda busy there."
"Candace? Don't tell me that you are busy busting your brother again. I thought your mom had known all of this." Stacy asked in annoyance, she was really tired of all of this busting stuff.
"Actually, this time I am busting WITH them." Candace explained, "We are busting Perry now because we wanna know where he had been all these time."
"Oh, I'm not surprise... wait, w-w-what did you say? Busting P-P-P-Perry?" Stacy gasped and stuttered in shock as she realized what her best friend said.
"Yes, I'm busting with Perry with the boys and their friends, including your little sis. What's wrong, Stace?"
"Um, I suddenly remembered that I had something need to take care of... I'll call you later.", Stacy was stiffened to hear this when she hung the phone up, "Oh no. This is bad." She had known once they find out Perry's truth he would be relocated for good and Perry doesn't want this. She knew she need to do something fast before they could find out. But suddenly a text sent to her phone, it was written:
Relax Stacy. This is just what I planned to do, OWCA finally agreed to let them know without relocating me, so don't worry.
P. S.: They also know that you knew this, so needless to be worried, your memory won't be deleted. I owe you a lot.
Stacy was relieved to see this, it was really uncomfortable to keep a secret that your best friend's brothers' pet platypus, who they believed doesn't do anything, actually is a skilled secret agent. She could swear that there's many times she almost slipped the secret to Candace or her sister Ginger, and she couldn't know how long she could keep on. Not even the platypus' nemesis' "giving up evil and devoting himself to time-travelling experiments" thing could help her release the stress. Oh yeah, she heard this from Perry.
"You really owe me a lot, Perry." She thought.
Meanwhile, Candace was a bit confusion at her best friend's reaction, so she decided to ask Ginger what happened.
"Beats me." The Japanese Fireside Girl replied, "All I knew was she suddenly became sensitive about anything of secret agent or fedora hats. I only knew this happened ever since Chief's last birthday, but she refused to tell me why."
"Hey, guys, look there!" Buford gasped as all the gang turned to look, they hid behind the corner and seeing Perry. Phineas wanted to call his pet but what happened made him almost gasped in shock: His platypus, who doesn't do anything, suddenly turned to look around, then he suddenly jumped up and stood on his hint legs and put on a fedora hat.
"What the?" Candace gasped.
"How could Perry do this? And why is he wearing a hat?" Phineas asked.
Unbeknownst to them, Perry had heard this and secretly rolled his eyes. Everyone asked this question at first when he revealed his identity. He shook his head as he found a cardbox and dived in. The gang, confused at this action, immediately followed behind and checked the box, but they didn't see Perry inside.
"What happened?" Baljeet asked.
"Did he go vanished?!" Katie asked.
"No, wait." Phineas checked the box carefully as he realized, "This box is actually a tube, it is connected to somewhere!"
"Then what are we waiting for?" Isabella replied, "Let's go!" She and Phineas were the first ones to jump in, then the rest of the gang followed. After some time being transported fast in the tube, they found themselves landing into a lair, which made them felt oddly familiar.
"Hey, isn't this the lair you built when we were secret agents, Ferb?" Phineas asked.
"For the last time, Phineas, that wasn't me." Ferb replied, already feeling annoyed at the comment.
"You were secret agents?" Candace asked in confusion, "When?"
"During the day when you and Stacy were on the Bettys' tour." Phineas replied, "Wait, where's Perry?"
All the gang turned around to see Perry with a nervous look, still wearing his fedora. Perry wasn't sure how should he react at this, despite he was promised he was not completely sure of this.
"Perry?" Phineas looked at his pet in confusion.
But suddenly they realized he wasn't alone as a familiar chihuahua and a panda suddenly appeared, and just like Perry, they wore fedora hats and they were nervous, too. Especially the chihuahua.
"Pinky?!" Isabella gasped in surprise.
"Hey, what about me?" A familiar sound suddenly appeared as the gang turned around to see a familiar pharmacist walking to them and he had a ray gun with him.
"Is that Vanessa's dad?" Phineas said in confusion.
"What are you doing here?" Isabella asked.
"W-w-w-w-w-hat is it about?" Baljeet stuttered nervously, "D-d-did we found something we are not supposed to know?"
"No, kids." Doofenshmirtz sighed, "Actually, it's time to let you know something you SHOULD HAVE known. Stand still, kids. It won't hurt." He targeted his Remember-inator to the gang and shot a ray towards them, and all the sudden, Phineas found his memory was flashing something,
"You're a secret agent?!"
"So this is where you disappear every day? You come here and fight this guy?"
"You're a secret agent?! And you've been living with us this whole time?! Was that evil guy right? Were we just a cover story to you? I mean, were you ever really our pet or part of our family? Well, apparently not, 'cause you didn't trust us enough to tell us."
"So you've discovered your pet is a secret agent... I don't want your pamphlet!"
"What is summer? Man, where do I begin?"
"You're kidding me! You're actually sneaking away again?! So nothing's changed. Did it ever occur to you that we could help you? That we could've made a great team? But I guess you can't have teamwork without trust. You don't have to sneak away anymore. We know your secret, you can just go."
"Well, he's a secret agent." He said, getting angry again. "We spent 5 whole years with him today, we only learned today that we were just a cover to him, he doesn't care about us, he only cares about his job."
"I know what I've said. I was hurt. But even if it was all an act, he's still a part of the family, and we're not leaving him behind."
"So, I guess that you trusted us after all."
"Man, this was the greatest day ever. Imagine how much fun we can have together now that we know you're a secret agent."
"Kids, I'm sorry, but now that Agent P's cover has been blown, you won't be allowed to see him anymore."
"That's why you didn't want us to know your secret."
"So our choices is to either forget the best day ever, forget the greatest adventure we ever had, and forget meeting Agent P, or remember today but never see Perry again?"
"Well, we've had a lot of great days. But we only have one Perry."
"Hey, buddy. Ferb and I just wanted to say our goodbyes. You know, we thought we'd meet the real you when we found out you were Agent P. But the fact is, pet, secret agent, they are both the real you. You are now, and always have been a great pet, and a great friend. We're going to miss you, Agent P."
"So, none of us will remember any of today?"
"That's right."
"Good."
"Hit it, Carl!"
"Wait! Wait! Wait!"
When all of these memory flashes finished. Phineas stared at Perry in shock,
"P..P..Perry? I mean, Agent P?"
Perry nodded.
"W-w-w-why did you do this?" Phineas asked, he was already panicked, "W-w-we are not supposed to remember this or you'll be relocated! Why did you do this? Is it some sort of trick or something? Please, tell us you're not gonna leave!"
The others were also panicked as they reacted differently. Candace just stared at this in shock and rubbed her eyes so that she could be sure whether she was hallucinating or not.
Isabella just looked at Pinky, realizing he was an agent and fearing she would lose him as the other Fireside Girls came to calm her down, although they were panicked, too. But suddenly Isabella then turned to see Phineas as she realized one worse thing. She KISSED him, she KISSED her crush! She was shocked at this and almost fainted.
Buford seemed to be shocked about this, as he widened his eyes but couldn't say anything. Baljeet took out a paper bag and kept blowing it. Ferb was the only one who seemed to be calm about this, then again, his look was ALWAYS calm.
Phineas still looked at Perry in panic as he paced around, kept asking questions, "Was it because something wrong we did? Like you actually hate that new platypus food we bought or we forgot to clean your litter box? No matter what is it we can fix it up, just please, don't go!"
"Don't worry... Phineas, is it?" Doofenshmirtz replied, "You needn't to be worried about Perry the Platypus, he won't be leaving."
"R-r-really?" Phineas asked in confusion and a bit suspicion, since he also remembered that Doofenshmirtz was an evil scientist and Perry's nemesis. But what to his surprise was Perry suddenly took out a keyboard and started to type something on a holograph screen which suddenly appeared in front of their eyes!
'No, I won't leave you.' The gang was shocked at this action, 'Although I DO hate that new platypus food!'
"Oh, yeah. I invented a translator that could be able to express what he wants to say." Doof added, "I wanted to make it a talk one, but Perry the Platypus prefers to be the silent one. I am still trying to improve this. But anyway, the reason Perry the Platypus doing this is not because he wants to get relocated. Instead, he wants you to know this because he feels guilty for hiding this from you all the time."
"But won't he get relocated because of this?" Isabella asked, "And speaking of this, why are YOU helping him? I remembered you two were nemeses."
"Come on, I had already given up being evil, and Perry the Platypus can vouch for me! Now I'm also an OWCA agent who is under his training. Plus, even if I was still evil I would never plan to hurt you, I promised him! The reason I take part in this is because he NEEDS my help and I WANT to help." Doof paused for a while and then mocked in an announcer's tone, "As for the relocating part, maybe I should leave this to the major. Ladies and gentlemen, Francis Monobrow!"
"Seriously?" Monogram groaned at this as he stepped out, with Carl and a few OWCA agents followed behind. "And yes kids, I didn't plan to do this at first, but something suddenly happened that make us change our mind. So after we called Agent P and had some talk, we decided to break the rule and make an exception for once."
"So, sir, does that mean...?" Phineas asked hopefully.
"Yes, Phineas. You are allowed to keep Agent P with knowing his identity." Monogram nodded.
"But what about..." Isabella asked, worried about her pet.
"Same with Agent Pinky." Carl added.
"Really? YEEEEEEEEEEEAHHH!" All the gang cheered, "Thank you, Major Monogram."
"You're welcome, kids. However, I have to lay some rules on you because we have to keep OWCA as a secret." Monogram replied.
"Fair enough." Ferb shrugged.
"First of all, you're not allowed to tell anyone about Agent P's identity. If there's actually someone find out, we will have to monitor them on the screen to see if we can trust him or not. For example, when this kid found out, we made a test on him and we think it's okay to let him keep the secret." He pointed to Irving, who suddenly stepped out.
"Irving?!" All the gang, especially Phineas, gasped in shock, "You know Perry is a secret agent? Since when?"
"A few months ago I accidentally found OWCA out, so they sent out some agents to give me some test." Irving replied, "In order not to spill the secret, OWCA allowed me to work as an intern, so I won't tell them the secret in exchange."
"That's also why we saw you less frequently recently." Baljeet realized.
"Yes. I know it's a huge sacrifice, but working in an exciting place like OWCA was worth it, not to mention Perry always told me those exciting adventures he had." Irving replied, "Also, I kept trying to advice Major Monogram to let you know this because I think it's better. But he didn't pass it until now."
"I guess we really owed a thanks to you." Phineas nodded, "And don't worry, sir. We promise you we won't tell anyone, not even Mom and Dad."
"Hey, girls. Do you think we can earn our Secret Agent Patch?" Isabella suddenly asked as all the Fireside Girls cheered.
"I can't wait to get it!" Adyson cheered.
"Uh-uh, sorry girls." Monogram shook his head, "But this is the second rule, you are NOT allowed to join Agent P's any missions, or the other agents' activities."
"What?!" All the Fireside Girls yelled, "Dang it!"
"But why?" Phineas asked, "We became secret agents that day and we did a great job!"
'And you two almost scared me to death!' Perry typed as he sent a glare, 'I had to follow behind you to check out you are fine and not in danger, but I couldn't let you participate more. How did you think that why I dropped you to Isabella's pool?'
"So it was you doing this." Isabella realized.
"But you let us help during the Robot Riot!" Phineas still tried to change this, "And come on! There must be something we can help!"
"Listen kids, just quiet for a while, please?" Doofenshmirtz, finally having enough, decided to cut in, and continued as the kids finally went quiet, "Thank you. Listen, I know you had him for more than 5 years. But at the same time, I know this side of Perry the Platypus more than you do. After he succeeded in restoring my memories of the 2nd dimension, he always talks a lot about you and he cares you that much."
"But..." Isabella tried to reply but Doofenshmirtz interrupted her.
"No 'buts' this time, little girl. I'm in charge of this one no matter how you protest it, not even showing ALL of your patches and show me what they're for can change it." Doof replied to her, remembering the time when he kept arguing with her on who should be in charge during that space adventure, "And more, Perry the Platypus does this is not because he doesn't trust you, but rather protect you from the danger even if you can handle it. He had already taken a huge risk of doing this to you, he doesn't want anything worse happen to you. If it really happens, he would never forgive himself, not for one second. You do understand how it feels to lose someone you really care, right?"
All the gang then looked at Perry, who now has a pleading look, 'I can't afford to lose you.' was the only words he typed on the screen. Everyone then looked at the platypus in sadness, so after some minutes...
"Don't worry, sir." Candace reassured, "Even if I always failed to bust my brothers, I can make sure they would never sneak out to follow Perry."
"However, we have some conditions, too." Phineas replied.
"Go ahead, please." Monogram nodded.
"First, Perry has to tell us every adventure he has after he finishes his mission." Phineas replied, "Second, if Perry needs help, he shouldn't hide this from us and if he needs us, we'll come to help no matter what. And we want to upgrade his gadgets, too."
"And there's a third condition." Candace suddenly added.
"What?" Everyone turned to see the teen girl.
"From now on, Perry has to clean his litter box by himself, without Mom and Dad seeing him, of course." Candace's replies makes everyone burst out laughing as Perry blushed in embarrassment, 'I actually can use the toilet, but fine!', he typed.
"I can vouch him for that." Doof added despite laughing, "He used the toilet a few times when he visited me. Oh, by the way, I gotta go now. Milo needs me for something." Doof then left before looking at the gang, "Kids, I gotta say this is really nice to finally meet you, as Perry the Platypus' family. You know, Perry the Platypus? You are really lucky to have these kids as your family."
"Hey, Dr.D? Can you tell Milo that we say 'hi'?" Phineas asked, "We haven't seen him for a long time."
"Of course, Phineas." Doof smiled as he left, "And Yeah, Perry the Platypus, I'll be at the same time tomorrow for agent training."
"Um, at the same time, you can take that to go back home." Major Monogram replied, "We need to do a huge cleaning here, Carl, Irving, grab the mop."
"Yes, sir!" Both interns started to clean the base as the gang returned to their backyard through another tube. When they returned, they found Linda and Lawrence coming towards them."Kids, where did you just go?" Lawrence asked.
"Oh, dad. We just took Perry a walk." Candace replied immediately as Perry immediately changed to his pet mode, "Nothing else."
"OK. Candace, we are going to a meeting now, you're in charge, now." Linda replied, "Just make sure your and boys' activities won't go out of control, okay?"
"Yes, mom." Candace nodded, as the Flynn-Fletcher parents walked away. After they left, Perry changed back to his agent mode as he shot a gratitude look to the teen.
"Don't mention it, Perry. I had a lot to make up for you, after all." Candace smiled, "Not to mention the last time you saved me from the moss mess and drowning. Since I know you're a secret agent now, I'm sure I wasn't hallucinating."
Perry nodded with a smile.
"And you can count on me for not telling anyone of this." Candace added, "Not even Jeremy, or Stacy."
'Um, actually.' Perry suddenly typed, 'Stacy knows this.'
"Wait, what?!" The gang all gasped, "When? And how?"
'Remember Isabella's birthday?' Perry typed as everyone nodded, 'That day, I was fighting with Doof since he invented a ray gun that could turn everything into insects, when we were fighting, we ended up getting into Stacy's home, and Doof ran away in panic after mistaking her as the Grievous monster from the movie she watched. And yes, she found out I was a secret agent and I had to tell her anything, but she said she needn't get her memories deleted since technically she isn't a Flynn-Fletcher. And she promised me to keep the secret. But later OWCA found out that she knows but I convinced them not to delete her memory. I owed her that.'
"So that's why she seemed to be sensitive about secret agent related stuff!" Ginger gasped in realization.
"Wait a minute, you just said Dr.D had a ray gun that could change everything into bugs that day." Phineas suddenly realized something, "So, did that mean..."
'Yes, it was the ray that got the birthday surprise turned into butterflies.' Perry nodded.
Phineas then looked at Isabella, and to his shock, he saw Isabella's face goes completely red, and her face is quite nervous and panicked.
"Isabella?" Phineas asked in concern.
"Um, P..P..Phineas," Isabella stuttered in fear, "I suddenly realized that... The Fireside Girls are supposed to have a meeting now!"
"We are?" Milly asked in confusion, but Isabella quickly covered her mouth before she could say more.
"We... um, we gotta go! Bye!" Isabella quickly ran away as the rest of the Fireside Girls, immediately realized what happened, followed her behind. As they ran into somewhere far away from the Flynn-Fletcher residence, they finally stopped.
"Chief?" Gretchen asked in worry, "Are you okay?"
But Isabella didn't reply anything, as she shook in terror, and finally, it was ended with...
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!"
(Meanwhile, back to the Flynn-Fletcher residence...)
"What... what happened to her?" Phineas asked in confusion and worry, but he only got blank stares and crossed arms from everyone, including Perry.
"Did you forget it?" Candace reminded, "She kissed you before we got our memory wiped out."
"Oh, right. It was really great." Phineas suddenly smiled, "Something that I always dreamed of, but never thought I could get it..."
"Wait, what?" Suddenly gasps from everyone interrupted his thought, then Phineas realized what he just said and immediately covered his mouth, but it was too late.
"What did you say?" Buford crossed him arms.
"Um, nothing?" Phineas remarked meekly. However, his action of scratching his ears told otherwise.
(Cut to Fireside Girls)
"What am I gonna do? What am I gonna do?" Isabella cried in panic as she ran all around in fear, "I kissed Phineas. I. KISSED. PHINEAS!!! Oh no, and he finds out! I can't stay here any longer! I can't be able to around him anymore! Oh my gosh, this is far worse than the crumb cake letter! This..."
But suddenly, someone suddenly arrived and slapped her to calm her down. And Isabella was surprised to see who did it.
"Pinky?" Isabella looked at her pet chihuahua, still in his agent mode and wears his fedora.
'Gee, can you get a hold of yourself, Izzy?' Pinky, like Perry who also had a translator, typed in frustration, 'Was it really bad to express your feelings?'
"It's not..." Isabella replied, "But I'm afraid that he won't accept this, he would refuse my love and maybe worse, he won't regard me as his friend!"
"Calm down, Isabella!" Adyson shouted, "No way the last thing would happen, after all!"
"I agree with her." Holly added, "Phineas is quite oblivious about the feelings, but what the key should be is you should give him a kick to his face to wake him up, just like the crumb cake letter last time, it could have been perfect."
(Back to the Flynn-Fletcher backyard)
"You mean you have been hoping to get Isabella's kiss all the time?!" Baljeet just widened his eyes in shock.
"So that means..." Candace concluded.
"Yes," Phineas, realizing no way he could hide this, sighed in resignation, "I have a crush on her, for years."
"You WHAT?!" All of them exclaimed.
"How comes we never know this?" Candace asked sternly.
"I... I... I just had been trying to show her all these years, I made some inventions that could show her the feelings, like the haunted house, or the Bio-Dome, especially the birthday surprise last time..." Phineas squeaked, "It wasn't just a surprise, it was a note that I could tell her my feelings. But she never notices these, she seemed to just regard me as a normal friend."
Everyone was silent for a while, then suddenly, they all burst out laughing.
"It's embarrassing, right?" Phineas sighed.
"No, we are not laughing about this." Candace laughed, "What we are laughing about is... HOW COULD YOU BE THAT OBLIVIOUS TO HER FEELINGS?"
"You don't know, but Isabella has a crush on you and keeps trying to show you her feelings." Baljeet explained, "She actually has hearts in her eyes when she comes to see you."
"She has made a heart chain for you." Buford replied, "And when we were in Paris she sang a love song and complained that you didn't return your feelings."
"She always looks forward to having alone time with you, but you always insisted to get the others with you." Candace added, "Not to mention she has a place called Phineas-land in her mind, which contains all of fantasies of yours."
'She sometimes would come to look for me and telling me all the amazing things you did when I was around.' Perry typed.
"She even wrote a secret letter to confess her feelings and called you her 'little crumb cake', only to regret it because she was afraid that you would reject her." Ferb also replied as everyone stared at him in confusion, "What? Milly told me about that."
"Oh my..." if Phineas wasn't shocked before, he now completely is, "I can't believe that I was this cold and oblivious to her feelings! Why didn't you tell me this before?"
"We're boys. We never talk about romance." Baljeet replied as Ferb and Buford nodded in agreement.
"Plus Isabella calls us not to tell this to you, she wants to say it herself." Candace replied.
'Hey, speaking of this. I kinda wonder since when did you have this crush on her? I mean, it sounds like it happened before you adopted me.' Perry typed.
"Well, it was all happened in..."
(Back to Fireside Girls)
"I kinda wonder how did you start to like Phineas." Pinky typed, "As long as I remember, you have already had this crush before you had me."
"Well, it was all happened in..."
(Flashback)
A 4-year-old Isabella was walking alone in the kindergarten, hoping to make a friend, that was until she suddenly paid attention to two certain boys inventing something.
"Hi, um. What'cha doin'?" Isabella asked.
"Oh, hi. We're working on building our own rocket." One of the boys, who was red-haired and busy looking at the blueprint, replied.
"Building your own rocket?" Isabella asked in confusion, "Um, are you a little too young to do this?"
"Yes. Yes, we are. But age is never the problem to stop us, we're just having fun from this."
"So, um... can I join in?" Isabella said in curiosity. And for some reason, she suddenly felt a new feeling on the red-haired boy.
"Sure, the more the merrier." The boy replied with a smile, "Hey, what's your name by the way?"
"Isabella. Isabella Garcia-Sharpio." Isabella replied, "What's yours?"
"I'm Phineas Flynn, and this is my stepbrother, Ferb Fletcher." The boy, Phineas, replied as he pointed to the green-haired kid, who simply waved.
"He doesn't talk?"
"It's rare. He's more of a man of action." Phineas replied, "Um, can you help us get that wrench? We're kinda stuck in the middle."
"Sure." Isabella replied as she found the wrench and passed it to Phineas. However, when she passed the wrench, her hand accidentally touched Phineas' hand, which gave her a special feeling she never felt before...
Love. Love at the first sight.
As Isabella continued to watch the brothers building, that feeling was more obvious. Sure, Ferb is cool, but Phineas is more amazing to her, she started to find a new feeling on the red-haired boy, as she looked at him dreamily, until...
"Isabella?"
Phineas' calling snapped her out of her trace, "Are you OK?"
"Um, I am." Isabella chuckled sheepishly.
"Great, we have finished it. Check it out." Phineas showed their project to the girl, much to her amazement. At the same time, seeing her smiling made Phineas felt something special... something new. It feels like...
A crush.
"So, um, do you wanna take this ride with us?" He asked, hopefully.
"Um, sure."
The trio then sat on the rocket and began their ride, as they on the ride, Isabella couldn't help but feel amazed and happy when she's with Phineas. At the same time, Phineas turned his head to Isabella, and her happy smile made him felt happy, too. Obviously, he had some feelings for the girl, but he didn't know how to say it loud. It feels uneasy for being too young to love, for goodness sake, they were only 4! Maybe when time is right, he would tell her.
(End flashback)
"That's how I started to like Phineas." Isabella replied.
(At the same time)
"That's how I had my crush on Isabella." Phineas explained, "I don't know, but seeing her smile really makes me feel happy and more motivate, and that really makes me like her more."
"Well, I might not be an expert in love, but if I wasn't wrong, that must be the same time when she started to like you." Buford replied.
"You know, Chief?" Gretchen replied, "I think since he remembered that you HAD kissed him, maybe it's not good to hide this from him anymore."
"Yeah, you had to CONFESS it to him." Ginger added, "It's not like you didn't do this before, right?"
Isabella, of course, remembered she tried to do this during the pharmacist outbreak so she could earn her Emotionally Bravery Patch. She did it, unfortunately that Phineas forgot all of this.
"Yeah, but he forgot this later." She sighed, "I wonder if he would remember this, too."
"Well, did she ever confess her feelings to you before?" Candace asked, suddenly it brought Phineas a gasp as he remembered another thing...
"Wait a minute, she did!" Phineas exclaimed, "It was during the pharmacist outbreak, she told me that she likes me before I got turned into a pharmacist and forgot all of this!" He then turned to Perry, hoping for an answer for why they would forget this.
"Don't ask me." Perry shook his head, already knowing what his owner was going to ask. He had no idea about this either.
"Oh man, what am I gonna do?" Phineas sighed to himself, "Not only did I fail to show her my feeling, but I also failed to notice her feelings on me. What am I gonna do?" He now is really, which is rarely, panicked, fearing that not only he would not lose Isabella as his girlfriend, but also lose her as a friend.
"Well, just give her some time and space. She has to face this, after all." Candace replied, "And you won't be dealing with it alone. Ferb and I would always back you up." She smiled as Ferb gave a thumb up.
"I'm in, too." Baljeet added.
"Fine, I don't wanna be left out, so count me in, too." Buford sighed.
"I may not be an expert in romance, but if you need my help I'll be ready." Perry tipped his hat.
"Wow, thank you guys." Phineas smiled as a tear coming out of his eye, "Where can I ask for better family and friends?"Sure, it was quite tough for him, but with his family and friends, he's sure that he could do this.
"I'm sure he has remembered this. So forgot trying to get his attention from the small parts, Izzy." Pinky typed, "I'd suggest you try to get on the bigger parts, show him directly that you like him."
"He's right, and just like we sang before." Gretchen agreed as the rest of the Fireside Girls sang and jumped with her, "You gotta jump. Jump. Jump right to it!"
"And you won't be dealing with this alone, either." Milly reassured, "You have us backing you up, Fireside Girls always stick together."
Seeing her friends and her pet smiling at her, these makes her nodded in determination yet a bit hesitant, "OK, I'll do it."
All the girls cheered, happy that their fearless leader is back. Isabella, on the other hand, wasn't sure of herself.
However, unbeknownst to them, a shadowy figure hid behind as he looks at this in amusement, "Curse it. They beat me a step to fail my plan to make their relationship go stained. Well, good thing is I still have a trick on my sleeve. Just wait, maybe I think I can give you a moment to confess it, before your ultimate doom."
And the seconds part is done! The part of Phineas having his crush on Isabella is my own headcanon and I will keep this continue. And also, as long as I want the gang to understand what Perry is speaking, I still prefer Perry to be the silent type. The part of the parents finding out is also something I had prepared for the future stories. And sorry if you think the part of the flashback is a bit of crummy.
Read and Review, please. I'll try my best to get the third chapter done.
