Isabella nodded, briefly biting her lower lip before leaning forward and kissing him in the cheek. She'd hurt him today, tarnished some of his brightness. He'd bounce back eventually, but she didn't things would ever be the way they had been ever again, the way they had been when they were children.
She mourned that little loss of innocence.
"Bye, Phineas." She whispered, going his hand one last squeeze before let time him go.
Phineas gave her a small smile back, one that didn't quite meet his eyes. "See you later, Isabella." He waved, then shoved his hands in his pockets and walked away.
Ferb was waiting for him a little ways away, out of hearing distance, his own eyes dark with worry. She felt a pang of jealousy until Ferb tore his gaze away from his slouched little brother, meeting her eyes, silently asking if she was okay.
Ferb always had the gift to say more without words than most people did with an entire dictionary.
She gave him a weak smile back, reassuring him. "Take care of him." She whispered.
He looked back at Phineas, then at her. "Always." He said back, his quiet voice carrying to her ears. There was a undercurrent of bristling protective steel in his tone. The unmovable rock guarding the unstoppable force.
Ferb turned towards his brother, giving Phineas an unguarded soft tender expression that made the breath catch in her lungs. It looked, well, like love. Not merely the brotherly kind, the kind that made people go out and slay dragons or conquer nations. The kind that legends were made out of.
It didn't matter how long she'd had a crush on Phineas, Ferb had always gotten there first. And he'd be there long after everyone else drifted away.
Then his expression was back to it's usual neutral expression, save for a worried wrinkle between his eyebrows. Phineas gave Ferb a small weary smile back, the two falling in step with each other. Phineas leaned slightly so that he brushed Ferb's arm with every step, seeking silent reassurance from the person he cared for most in the world. Ferb shifted slightly, his body shielding Phineas' from the rest of the school's prying eyes,
Isabella realised that she was probably the only person to know Ferb's secret. The two of them just... fit together. In a way that probably no one else ever would, each others strengths making up for the other's flaws.
And one of Phineas' biggest weaknesses was that he couldn't recognise anything more than friendship with a manual and an electron microscope.
He, like every one else, probably had no clue about how Ferb felt about him, not seeing anything more than Ferb being his brother. In that, Isabella sympathised greatly with the quiet engineer.
"Good Luck." She whispered, watching them disappear from view before she went to go eat tonnes of ice cream and sob into her pillow for a bit. Maybe call up some of her girl friends and swear off stupidly intelligent boys for a while.

Ferb was going to need all the luck he could get.
