Only for you

Heres the next chapter, man I am firing this out as quickly as possible.

I based alot of this on my favorite new artist Emeile Sande, her songs are perfection.

WARNING

I tend to verge on the more sexual of material within the guidelines and limits off course so if you like it rough, enjoy

This is the Story of how helgas heart beats only for him (Arnold)... in a long twisted kind of way...

Set in 2009 with chapters looking backwards into highschool and elementary the story starts at the end with a lot of years gone by including diary entries and such. You get the idea.

Oh and to the latest reviews about how people think patti would be stronger than that OR it would be easy to sock rhonda in the mouth or nose etc, would you really? if she had an army of body guards? I would probably call patti to one side and get her over Rhonda then beat her to a pulp lol

I hate and despise rhonda's character so yeah this might explain my bias in writing but I realize the H.A fandom is a bit Anti-Lila but yeah this fic is just showing the Lila I saw from the show really.

Thanks for the lovely reviews and you JC Rose, I am glad I did not disappoint.

Enjoy x

Italic means Diary entries OR thoughts

Characters are all hey arnold ones, there are no OC's.

Chapter 4

Senior Prom/End of high school

Another year had passed at PS 318 and it was now Helga and her classmates who had not since dropped out last year of High school. This was the year that would see these young adults blossom into men and women, taking their place in the world...supposedly anyway

some prepared for college, others looked at apprenticeships and the rest bludged off their wealthy parents which would be for years to come.

Rhonda Lloyd ruled the school officially as head girl and most popular senior, showing the junior wannabees the way admittingly it was not a good way but in the cut throat world that was high school most girls broke each others legs to get to the popularity of Rhonda's standard.

Rhonda, led by an entourage walked down the corridors with Big patti and wolfgang behind her, as the two had been held back a couple of years and little else to do. Rhonda had started dating Wolfgang well for the first part of senior year anyway in her own words to "Help him", in reality that meant she had slept with the majority of the "hot" guys in her school or boys she found worthy of having sex with and Wolfgang was tall, tough and rough round the edges so in Rhondas eyes someone like him would be great to have around.

"Not now" Rhonda giggled, while her new boyfriend groped her against her locker.

"Wait until after school",she groaned, pushing her large boyfriend away.

Nadine and Lila gathered around her and talked about college while a horny wolfgang stood back with a sad look on his face.

"Oh I know Ill be accepted into Princeton" Rhonda proudly stated.

Lila smiled.

"I ever so want to go as well Rhonda." she said clasping her hands hopefully.

"Well hopefully your grades will be good enough for a scholarship Lila" Rhonda said with a wink.
"Besides I have a little sway", "that is to say my parents do." she smiled.

"Oh Rhonda you are ever so sweet to me thank you" Lila went to hug her but rhonda refrained.

"Ack" "No hugging", "not in public."

"Oh sorry Rhonda" Lila looked to the floor.

"Well I'm going to UCLA" Nadine announced.

"WHAT?" Rhonda shrieked. Wolfgang wrapped his arms around her waist to "comfort her" (more like feel her boobs )

"You're my best friend and you are not even trying to go to the same College as me?" She narrowed her large dark eyes at Nadine.

Nadine twiddled one of her blonde dreads.

"Yeah well I like the look of it" she replied. "Its close to the beach so I can surf." "Besides" She added, "I have always wanted to be a veterinarian."

Rhonda double blinked and shook her head despairingly.

The blonde surfer chick just shrugged her shoulders and grabbed her books.

"I'm off to find Iggy" she said, walking away.

"IGGY?, STILL?" Rhonda spat. "Nadine we talked about this" "you can't only have one boyfriend", "I mean how long have you been dating?"

"Since middle school I believe" Lila answered.

"Exactly", "Too long Nadine" "Come on, dump him". Her words echoed through the halls. Nadine just kept walking and ignoring every word her friend said.

Then Helga appeared in her usual attire, blue flare jeans and pink striped baby tee. This time she wore her hair in a high pony tail and had dark eye liner under her eyes. The lip gloss added a bit more femininity to her look and the mono brow had long gone. Deep down Helga suspected Rhonda was jealous of her natural blonde hair that was long, soft and really easy to maintain unlike her over dyed dry straw hair.

Rhonda pointed Helga as she walked passed and whispered something in Wolfgangs ear.

"Rhonda dont" Lila pleaded. "Its ever so mean."

Brushing Lilas comment aside, Rhonda got wolfgang to approach Helga and pretend to flirt with her.

"Hey sexy", he said pushing helga up against the wall.

"Hey dick head", Helga hissed. She tried to push him away but he held her arms.

""Dont be like that Helga" "I know somewhere we can go after class." T
he idiot went to grab Helgas breast when she kneed him in the groin.

"Yeah right, freakin asshole" Helga grunted.

"Ahhh you bitch" Wolfgang yelled in agony.

Rhonda and her group of cronies all burst out laughing, except Lila and Wolfgang who was clutching his groin in pain.

"Pathetic" Rhonda snarled.

"As if I'd look at you" Wolfgang growled. "You're an ugly disgusting bitch."The tall and rather horrible young man muttered, hobbling over to Rhonda.

"Very funny miss "beef wellington", but at least I am not an insecure and evil little slut bag like you." Helga growled.

The laughing stopped.

"This orta be good", Stinky peterson said in hi southern drawl.

"Is that so Helga "the german prison guard" Pitaki?" Rhonda asked, her arms folded.

The group laughed at Rhondas jab.

"Its hungarian dumbass" Helga spat. "If you weren't so busy spreading your legs then maybe you would have known that."

"ooooh" the crowd jeered, that was a low blow to Rhonda.

The dark haired queen just smiled and approached Miss Pitaki slowly.

"At least I'm not a virgin who noone wants to sleep with" she loudly retorted.

Helgas face went beet red with embarrassment as her peers pointed in laughter.

Helga clenched her fists and this time really offered to give Rhonda five aunt betsys but Patti stood like a rock in front of her.

"Sorry Helga" she said.

Helga just shook her head and went to walk to class. She then spun around and glared at the almond eyed teen queen.

"At least Im my own person", "Which is more than I can say for you" "For any of you". Helga pointed back at the group standing by Rhonda like clones.

"Ugh yeah you are." Sid agreed. "You're a freak."

The laughing continued with Lila asking them to stop.

Just then Arnold and Gerald appeared.

"What the hell is wrong with all of you?" Arnold growled, he was actually angry.

"Oooh its Arnold" "Helgas forbidden fruit" Rhonda scoffed.

Noone not even Helga said anything after that remark.

"Oh shut up Rhonda." Arnold yelled. "Someone should have told you to a long time ago."

The entire senior grade were perplexed. This was not the Arnold they knew. Why was he sticking up for Manic depressive girl? The girl with the smart mouth and freakish attitude?

"Helga is her OWN person and you all treat her like crap." "We're seniors now" "so come on leave her alone."

Rhonda sighed. "Oh Arnold, I can now see why Lila broke up with you." "You are just as pathetic as HER"

Lila attempted to tell Rhonda that there was a genuine reason why she left Arnold but the group had dispersed and headed to class.

Helga just stood their shaking. She was white as a sheet and full of questions racing through her mind.

She ran into the girls bathroom, closed one of the cubicles and took in some severe deep breaths. This revelation was new to her and slightly exciting. Arnold and Lila had broken up.

Once she composed herself, Helga went to wash her face in the sink. Just then Lila appeared wearing her short skirt and Rhonda look a like outfit.

"Helga" "I broke up with Arnold because he no longer liked me the way he used to."

Wiping her face, Helga sighed. "Oh boo hoo Lila."

"No" Lila continued. "Helga, you don't get it."

Helga rolled her eyes. "Dont get what?"

Lila walked up to the skinny blonde and held both her hands, this made Helga uncomfortable. She narrowed her eyes at Lila.

"He like, well deeply likes..." "Er loves even...someone else."

Helga backed away from Lila. "And you are telling me this because?"

Lila went to touch her shoulder but helga refrained.

"Fine" "Its YOU Helga." "He loves you." She announced.

Helga did not move, she stood silently like a statue and her eyes started to water a little bit.

"That's why I broke up with him." Lila said. "Arnold was upset at first but realized it was the right thing to do."

Helga nodded and wiped her eyes.

"I do hope you and Arnold can work things out" "That would be ever so sweet." Lila smiled.

"Thanks" Helga replied with a genuine tone of voice.

Now off course this did not mean that Helga and Arnold were going to find each other after school and run into each others arms. Helga had a lot of thinking and writing to do, however it would not be easy to even initiate contact with her blonde haired love because he was not talking to her and hadn't been since the end of junior year.

So it began again. Throughout the senior year Helga would wait for Arnold to finish an art class or social studies project then she would ask him.

"Arnold" "Talk to me please."

Alas he would not respond. This was to last throughout their final year of high school as was Rhonda's jealous and horrid reign of terror.

Then came the night of Senior prom...

Two weeks before graduation

The school was abuzz with the upcoming Prom that night and Rhonda was outward about showing her excitement by strutting up and down the corridors like cock of the walk. She had a new boyfriend now after dumping wolfgang of whom she could not possibly take to prom, he would ruin her chances at becoming Queen for sure. Rhonda now dated the rich and rather dashing Lorenzo, the two looked like Royalty and acted it too.

Meanwhile at Helgas house.

Missing another school day to write in her journal, Helga began writing with a heavy heart mixed with the smallest hint of anticipation.

Dear Journal

Well I'm 18 yrs old, yes thats right I am supposed to be an adult but my mind and my heart has been lost into my womanhood. Ever since my pre teen years when I was but a girl with big dreams of love, happiness and above all those romantic rendezvous that plague my mind. Alas those two separate kisses without permission, yes Journal two, were amazing. First I initiated the passionate lip lock and then last year on the eve of summer when I thought all hope was lost, HE came to my house and I opened the door. He kissed me on my door step, it was more fierce and I swear I could have held him forever under that summer night sky, oh the moment was bliss and finally I thought he had processed everything and was ready to talk and we could, well we could...oh I didn't even think of a relationship starting until that night but no it wasn't to be. I know this was all my fault I mean Crimeny I wouldn't speak to him in 7 years and when I finally did he had enough and stopped asking me, he would no longer respond and I cannot blame him for my cowardice of the years gone by. My eyes are sore from the tears I have cried in private where noone sees. My fragile half heart is torn only HE can sew it back together and maybe even rebuild the other half? Oh this is a bastard of a scenario. He avoided my presence all year like so many other senior idiots but what do I care about them? Oh but he did stand up for me, this has me slightly hopeful that maybe just maybe he will speak to me, which is why journal I am going against my original plan of doing nothing and GOING to the prom to confront arnold, the beautiful and now single darling of my life. Lila actually did me a favor and was...well nice and to hear Rhondas dismay at lilas kind act naturally leaves me with much jubilation.

This is it, NO more Rhonda and her clan of wannabes. No more brainy stalking me or Harold to look at, having to remember the "Favor" he did for me which I journal am too ashamed to write about. xoxoxoxo

I shall take a deep breath and my prescription Valium, oh how I fell for Dr Bliss and her medical persuasion, for this ONE time only. Fraught with anxiety I shall give this dream of love I have had since pre school the chance it deserves. Tonight it happens, i mean if it can happen for Pheobe and Gerald then it can happen for Arnold and me, can it? oh it simply must. If he loves me back I will be in heaven and never let him go, if not I will let him go because when you truly love someone you are prepared to let them ago...xxxoxo

As she finished her final entry before prom, Helga closed her diary and looked at herself in the mirror.

Considering her tomboy attitude and demeanor she had always liked the color pink, it was her signature color, going back to Arnolds compliment on her pink bow.

Her heart beat was getting faster as she studied her pink satin prom dress a soft pink glitter trim and dark crimson boa made of feathers that olga had given her in the hope she would wear it one day with a pair of silver shoes that she wore in the 80s when she was crowned queen. Off course Helga had no intention of becoming prom queen nor did she have such desire for "Frivolity" like that. Helga only desired Arnold and his affection.

Curling her hair and placing on her only shade of lipstick, dark pink, Helga placed a small pair of pink studs in her ears and a silver locket which held Arnolds picture. Once her hair was curled, Helga let the curls fall in front of her face bopping up and down. Last but not least she placed a tiny tiara on her head that Miriam had got her in sixth grade as a present as in her own drunk way, she did care for her daughter. Now was the time for Helga to go to prom, stand alone and wait for Arnold to arrive...

On her way out the door, Bob stopped to ask why she was all dressed up.

"You look half decent." He laughed.

Helga ignored him and went to leave but Miriam wanted to take a couple of photos of her daughter despite her drunken state.

"Say cheeese honey" "Yay prom"

Bob looked downward then up at Helga, she did look stunning. A wave of guilt rushed over him.

"Well I'm off" "Dont expect me back anytime soon and Ill be out of your hair for good once summer starts." Helga said, grabbing a coat to walk toward school with.

"Helga" Bob held out his arm. "Wait."

Helga sighed. "What is it now Bob?"

The large man scratched the back of his head.

"I uh just wanna say..." "I don't hate you and you weren't an..." "an accident or whatever."

Helga stopped and looked at her Father.

"I don't hate you either Bob" she said with a small smile.

Bob nodded his head.

"Well go on get to Prom" "You had better let us know when you're home missy."

Bobs concern for Helga did make her feel a bit better as she walked toward the school.

Removing her jacket, Helga handed it over to Eugine and Sheena who were sitting at the desk by the door and ticking off everyone who arrived.

It was a night of flesh and fantasy and Rhonda had made the dance night so that everyone was invited to show just how kind she really was and to raise her chances of becoming Queen. Miss Lloyd was not so happy to see Helga Pitaki step into the beautifully decorated hall, filled with seniors dancing, drinking punch and making out.

Naturally the popular princess, who wore a sapphire ball gown and jewels too match with a lovely hairdo to boot, was indeed perplexed and somewhat angry that the "Freak" and girl she most despised walking around. Tonight all Rhonda could do to save face, was politely tell her "not to cause trouble."

Helga approached Rhonda and smiled.

"Oh dont worry your pretty plastic head Rhonda." "Im not here to ruin your night." And with that she slid off to search for Arnold.

Rhonda and her mini entourage were left stunned.

"Is she wearing a dress?" Nadine asked.

"Its really pretty." Lila said. "Oh and her Tiara matches her blonde curls ever so well."

A couple of others nodded in agreement while Rhonda just shook her head in disbelief and folded her arms.

"Yeah well she can't fool me." "If she steps out of line and she usually does then shes out." Rhonda glanced over at Harold and Patti.

Harold looked at Patti then she back at him.

"Ah Rhonda I think we're gonna leave her alone." Harold said.

"Yeah." Patti agreed. "I'm over it." The two then held hands and went to dance.

The dark haired beauty's jaw dropped open.

"Well fine" She spat. "Don't expect anymore special treatment from me you two big..."

"Shhh" Lorenzo hushed his girlfriend. "You want to win tonight don't you?"

Rhonda sighed. "Yeah".

Lorenzo held her hand and whispered something in her ear.

"Really?" Rhonda gushed. "A jacuzzi?" "What hotel?" "when?"
she whispered a whole lot of questions of this nature as the two of them started to giggle and make out.

Meanwhile, A nicely dressed Helga spotted Arnold standing beside Gerald and Phoebe.

"This is it." She said, taking a breath

Phoebe and Gerald were dressed as a sixteenth century Lord and Lady.

The two of them spotted Helga and Gerald placed an arm around his girlfriends shoulder.

"Ah Arnold, I think its time to talk to her."

Phoebe looked at her beau and hinted that they leave.

"Arnold excuse us" Gerald said. "My lady and I are to make merry with a dance." "Come my lady." He said with a wink.

Arnold didn't know what to say when his friends took off and Helga approached him.

Opposite they stood from each other, both gazing at the way the other one looked. Arnold looked lovely in a tuxedo and soft blonde hair behind his shoulders, he wore a silver ring on his right middle finger that his grandmother Gertie had given him.

Helga looked extremely gorgeous and Arnolds eyes were having a bit of a feast but Helga was blushing too much to notice.

"Hey Arnold." Helga bit her bottom lip anxiously.

Arnold gulped. "You look uh...really nice."

"So uh so do um you." Helga replied shaking.

Arnold was going to say something when Helga cut in.

"Arnold please let me talk to you."

He nodded. "Okay but not here." He pointed to the door.

"Can we go outside?"

"Sure" Helga replied.

Once the two of them were seated outside on the school steps they both took a deep breath of the summer nights air.

"Helga, I guess I'm sorry for avoiding you" Arnold began. He then looked at the concrete. "But you havent spoken to me in years and then all of a sudden at 16 you kiss me and it was...well great but I didn't know what to think or what to uh do."

Helga placed two hands over her face and did something completely out of her natural character. Such a vulnerable move could only come from feelings and emotions being bottled up for so long..

"ARNOLD" She cried, tears were streaming down her face.

"Do you still not get it?" "I LIKE LIKE, uh what the hell am I talking about?" "I LOVE, LOVE LOVE you." "Ive wanted to be with you since I first saw you in pre school", "But when Rhonda read my diary so evily, well it ripped my heart in two Arnold."

Arnold was stunned, here was Helga Pitaki finally opening up to him as he had always wanted her to do.

"Why didn't you speak to me for so long?" He asked. "Just answer me that."

Helga wiped her tears and looked directly into his blue eyes.

"Because you didn't like me back." she wept.

"What?" Arnold gasped.

"Oh c'mon" Helga cried. "You liked Ruth, then Lila and dated her for years until..." she bit her lip again.

Arnold placed his arm on Helgas shoulder. She felt on the edge of glory as he touched her.

"Until Lila told me she broke up with you."

Arnold closed his eyes and sighed. "Did she tell you why?"

Helga sat closer to him and pulled out her locket, she handed it to him.

"She said it was because you liked me."

Arnold opened the locket to reveal his boyhood picture that Helga had kept all these years.

"I loved you Helga." "I still do."

Those beautiful words rang in Her ears like a symphony of love.

"You...you do?" she asked as more tears rolled down her cheeks.

Arnold pressed his hands on helgas face, wiping her tears.

"Yes Helga, I do."

Helga felt her heart skip a million beats before she threw her arms around the man she had loved for years and years. She hugged him tightly and he wrapped his arms around her tightly. Helga was so relieved, she had finally got her Arnold and her happy ending.

After the hug, arnold stopped and asked Helga why it had taken so long.

Helga started to laugh.

"I dunno football head, you tell me."

Arnold smiled and held her close.

"Well I could, but I think its been long enough don't you?"

Helga smiled, "Gee you think so?"

Arnold laughed. "Yeah I do."

He then held out his hand and invited Helga back in for a dance.

As the walked inside, Helga seized the moment by embracing Arnold.

"Kiss me." she demanded.

"with pleasure." He replied.

The two shared their third passionate and much more intense kiss until they eventually went back inside to dance but that had stopped as the prom king and queen were to be announced.

Sheena was the one who announced who was this years prom king. "Oh gee" she chirped. "Goodness me, everyone your 2004 Prom King is..."

"Gerald Johansson."

The whole room applauded and Phoebe kissed her boyfriend happily. "You deserve it." she said, giving him a massive hug.

"I love you my fair lady." Gerald bowed and headed up to accept his crown. Arnold, Sid and Stinky all applauded loudly.

Lorenzo was extremely disappointed.

"Ack the nerve." Rhonda spat in anger.

"Oh well, there is still Queen." She remarked.

The "queen bee" held Nadine and Lilas hands in anticipation.

Sheena announced the Queen...

"Your 2004 prom queen is.." "Oh heavens" "Everyone Your Queen is Lila Sawyer" She announced happily.

"Congratulations."

Again alot of applause from the hall was heard for the nicest girl in school.

Helga roared with laughter as did Arnold and even Phoebe giggled.

The look on Rhonda's face was priceless. Her and Lorenzo stormed out to their fancy hotel.

"Wilikers" Stinky Peterson said with a massive smile. "My beautiful miss Lila."

Lila had been dating Stinky in secret as Rhonda would never have approved but it all came out now.

"I won stinky" Lila squeaked. "I loooove you" She yelled.

Helga looked at Arnold. "Well she's always had a thing for slack jawed gawkers right?"

Arnold nodded. "Well there was my cousin Arnie if that's what you mean."

"Well Doi" Helga said, wrapping her arms around her new boyfriend. "I didn't mean you."

As the King and Queen shared a dance, the rest of the room slow danced.

Arnold and Helga finally got their dance together, locked in each others eyes.

AFTER PROM

Many of the seniors had been invited to a massive after party that Rhonda would now not be attending but still Helga was not invited as it was held at Nadines. Arnold and Gerald were invited, even phoebe was but naturally Arnold declined, leaving a spell bound class of 2004 including Arnolds closest friends watch as Helga and Arnold walked back to the Sunset Arms hand in hand in the night air...
