SUMMARY:Arnold finally has everything he ever wanted in life when he runs into someone who just might show him that he doesn't.
AUTHOR NOTE: I haven't wrote a Hey Arnold fiction in years and years but I'm older now and a better writer then I was before. I am still a hopeless Hey Arnold addict and this story popped into my head after I saw a youtube video.
Arnold walked down the steps of the massive building he worked in and quickly pulled out his cell-phone dialing the number he knew by heart.
"Hello?" The soft voice on the other end made him smile.
"Lila? It's me I got the promotion I'm a partner" He beamed.
"Oh Arnold that's ever so great to hear"
"Yeah, I just wanted to call and tell you the great news I gotta go I have to get to the tux shop and meet Gerald" He started down the side walk.
"Oh alright Arnold I'll see you when you get home I love you just ever so much"
"I love you too" He hung up with a contented sigh.
Life for him was pretty much perfect right now. He was 28 and had just been made the youngest partner at the law firm he worked at.
He and Lila had been dating three years now and in two weeks were finally getting married.
He hadn't really changed much over the years except getting a little taller and better built he still looked the same. He also dressed like a lawyer now.
Lila was still beautiful and Gerald his best friend was the same goof ball he had always been despite becoming a father and having his son with Phoebe. Little Gerry was nine months old now.
Arnold lost contact with everyone else when he was nineteen except Gerald and he re-united with Lila three years ago.
He opened the door to the Tux Deluxe Palace and door jingled happily thie was his last fitting before the wedding.
"Gerald...I got the promotion"Arnold smiled as he approached his long time best friend.
"Wow Arnold...life sure seems to be going great for you man I'm happy for you"
"Thanks...How are Phoebe and Gerry?"
"Great...really great I love being married Arnold it's the best feeling in the world"
"I'll have to take your word on that"
"Yeah but not for long man just two weeks to go...man, can you believe you're going to marry Lila...it's gotta be a dream come true"
"It sure is...I just wish I could have came to your wedding and been your best man for you"
"Me too...but with little Gerry on the way well things were kind of last minute" Gerald laughed.
Arnold and Gerald quickly finished their fitting and exited the shop together.
"Well Arnold I got to get home and help Phoebe. Are we still on for that game tomorrow?"
"You bet three o'clock at the basketball court I'll see you there man"
They waved and each headed off in their own direction Arnold anxious to get home to his fiance'.
He turned a corner and toppled over something or someone faliing onto the pavement he looked and saw a girl laying a few feet away her blonde hair spilling loosely over her shoulders.
"I'm so sorry, are you alright?" He pushed up and moved over to help her up.
"I'm fine why don't you watch where you're going you moron" She scolded.
"I'm sorry really I..."He froze when she turned and he saw her face.
"Arnold?"
"Helga!"
Short I know but it's going to get better.
Please excuse any grammer/spelling problems that mayb be in this fiction. I know they are there but I'm not perfect which is why I keep writing so I can get better I don't need these mistakes pointed out.
Read and Review please 3
