Alright everyone
Here's the final chapter! Now, a little background why it is late: I lost the inspiration.
Yep, I had no clue what to write and I just wasn't feeling it anymore.
But, I asked for help. And the amazing author, BroadwayFanGirl91 answered.
She wrote this entire chapter. All I did was some minor grammar corrections (two homophone mix-ups and one change in punctuation).
Thank you again, BroadwayFanGirl91!
Ferb scuffed his feet against the ground, waiting to see what Phineas's reaction was going to be. He flinched slightly when he felt someone's hand on his shoulder. Ferb looked up to see Phineas smiling slightly at him,
"It's alright, Ferb I'm not mad at you."
Ferb looked a little shocked, "You're… you're not?"
"Nope, not at all. I know you were just trying to look after me and trying to do the right thing by telling mom."
Ferb looked over at Isabella, "And you're not mad at me either?"
Isabella shook her head, "Of course not…"
Ferb breathed out deeply and smiled slightly at his brother.
After calming down, Linda walked over to both of her sons. Phineas and Ferb looked up at her with worried expressions. Were they in even more trouble?
Linda sighed, "I think we should all go home now and sit down to talk about this rationally."
Phineas grabbed Isabella's hand, "What about Isabella? Her mom isn't here and I… I'd rather not leave her here."
"She can come home with us as well then."
Stacy and Dr. Hirano took their car home, leaving the rest of the Flynn/Fletchers behind. After placing Phineas and Isabella's luggage into the car, the family said goodbye to Candace and drove home. Lawrence was driving and Linda sat up beside him in the passenger seat. Phineas sat in the middle back seat with Isabella and Ferb on either side. He had his arm around Isabella's shoulder the whole way home. Nobody said a single word.
Once they pulled up to the house, everyone grabbed the luggage that was in the trunk and walked inside. After setting down the bags in the hallway, everyone walked into the living room and sat down. The kids all sat on the couch, while the parents each took an armchair. Phineas looked nervously from one parent to another, waiting for someone to say something.
Linda finally sighed and looked at her two sons, "First off, I should apologize to you all for how I reacted earlier. It's just when I saw you guys flying in on that… machine, my first thoughts drifted back to when Phineas's father was killed doing the same thing. Building a huge device and having it cave in and fall on him… I now understand that you two thought you had our permission for building all these so called contraptions."
Phineas quickly nodded, "Yeah mom, and we're sorry for not being clear enough about exactly what we do and build." Ferb nodded in agreement,
"And also," Linda said while looking over at Isabella, "I'm sorry for flying off the handle at you and telling you to go away when you clearly had no place to go at the time. It was wrong of me to take out my anger on you."
Isabella smiled slightly, 'It's alright Mrs. Flynn-Fletcher I understand."
Linda looked next at her husband, "And I'm so sorry for not listening to you and yelling at you as well, when you clearly were just trying to reason with me and calm me down."
Lawrence smiled, "It's alright darling, I know you meant well."
Phineas cleared his throat, "So um… are Ferb and I ungrounded?"
Linda sighed, "Well, you two aren't going to be punished for building that flying thing… but you will be punished for leaving the country without telling your father or I about it."
Phineas hung his head slightly and nodded his head, "I guess that seems fair…"
Linda looked over at her husband, who nodded also, "I think being confined to your room for one week is a fair enough punishment."
Phineas and Ferb glanced at each other and nodded their heads. Phineas looked up at his mom and bit his lip, "So… does that mean I can't see Isabella either for that amount of time?"
Linda sighed, "I'm afraid so, sweetie… but don't worry, you'll have plenty of time to spend together after your punishment is lifted."
Isabella and Phineas looked at each other with hopeful smiles. Ferb raised his hand and cleared his throat, "Where is Isabella going to stay? Her mum is not going to be back in town for another day or two?"
Lawrence nodded, "Isabella will be able to stay with Candace for the time being…"
Linda stood up and looked down at her sons, "Okay you two… you have five minutes to say whatever you want to say to Isabella. After that, the two of you have to go upstairs."
Lawrence stood up as well, "Isabella let me know when you're ready to leave and I'll take you back to Candace's house."
Isabella smiled, "Thanks Mr. Fletcher…"
After the parents left the room, Ferb also stood and went to walk out.
Phineas cocked his head, "Bro? Where are you going?"
Ferb looked over his shoulder and grinned, "I'm giving you two some privacy… I know exactly what you two plan to do with the next four and a half minutes left of Phineas's freedom." He waved slightly and walked off, "See you in a week, Isabella…"
After he left Isabella looked at Phineas, "Wow… you're brother's pretty nice about leaving us alone."
Phineas chuckled, "Yeah, yeah he is…"
The two of them smiled at each other for another second before finally embracing each other. Phineas planted his lips against hers and began kissing her over and over again. Isabella kissed right back and gripped the back of his shirt tightly. She broke apart once for air, so he started kissing her cheeks and neck.
Isabella giggled, "Phi… Phineas… you need to breathe…"
Phineas panted slightly as he whispered in her ear, "I'm not going to be able to see you or kiss you for a whole week… I'll concentrate on breathing then. But for now…"
He leaned forward to kiss her lips again. She closed her eyes and let herself fall into the kiss. She wrapped her hands around his neck and brought him closer to her. He ran his hand through her hair and wrapped his fingers around her black curls. She moaned slightly and pressed her lips more firmly against his. He moaned in response and broke apart once for air. She began lining kisses up and down his neck, which made him sigh.
Finally their time was up, so they stood up together and walked hand in hand out of the living room. Lawrence was waiting by the door and looking around nonchalantly. He had accidently looked in the living room a couple of minutes too early and had quickly backed away unnoticed by the two teens.
Phineas placed his hands around Isabella's head and kissed each of her cheeks, "Until next week, my love…"
Isabella giggled, "I shall count the days…"
He finally let go of her face and watched as she followed his dad out the door. She looked over her shoulder once more before blowing him a kissing and exiting out the door. Phineas sighed and slowly began to climb the stairs. A week wasn't very long… but on this particular day, it seemed like forever…
When he entered the bedroom, Ferb was sitting on his bed reading a book. Phineas kicked off his shoes and settled on his own bed. He lied back on the pillow and folded his arms behind his neck.
Ferb peeked up over the pages and saw the dreamy look his brother was wearing. He stifled a snicker, but it wasn't quite enough. Phineas turned his head and raised an eyebrow,
"Something funny, Ferb?"
Ferb shook his head and looked back down at his book, he was struggling to hold back a smile and Phineas saw this.
"Seriously? What's so funny?"
Ferb looked up from his book and grinned, "It's nothing really… it's just funny to think that less than a month ago you wouldn't have given Isabella a second look, now you two are having full blown make out sessions on the couch… with our parents home no less."
"You little sneak…"
"What? I didn't see anything… our father is the one who looked into the living room far to early and quickly came back upstairs to clear his mind."
Phineas blushed slightly, "Heh heh… oh boy."
"Just be glad it wasn't, mum… she would've probably upped your punishment or something."
"Yeah I guess you're right…" Phineas sighed and relaxed back down on the bed, "So… we're grounded… for a whole week…"
Ferb nodded and turned back to his book.
"I don't suppose you have your toolbox up here with you?"
Ferb shook his head, "Mum already came in and took it… sorry."
Phineas lied on his stomach, "Not your fault… I just wish I had something to do for this whole entire week… all I can think about now is Isabella. How her eyes shine, how her cheeks blush, how soft her lips are…"
Ferb looked up from his book, "Too much info for me, bro…"
"…how soft her hair is, the way I feel when she just says my name, when she moans when I kiss her…"
Ferb covered his head with a pillow and moaned, "Cut it out! I don't need to hear about any of this!"
"…how her eyelashes bat when she blinks, how she gets goose bumps when I feel her arms, how she-"
Ferb groaned out loud again, plugged his ears and hid fully underneath the pillow.
This was going to be a long week indeed.
