The Switch: Chapter Twelve

Next chapter starts now! lol. Hope you enjoy a whole bunch! (:

Helga and Arnold were sitting on Arnold's bed in his house. They had told his Grandparents that they were going to study. Grandpa bought it and let them go up there to "study." Arnold and Helga actually just needed to talk about their plans.

"You have to do it Arnold!" Helga said. Arnold sighed.

"Why do you always wear the darn thing anyway? You've worn it ever since Preschool. Will it hurt if I just don't wear it for a while?" Arnold asked.

"I love that pink bow and it's…it is very important for you to wear it," Helga said. Arnold sighed.

"Alright…if it means that much to you, then I will. I would like to know why you like it so much though," Arnold said. Helga gulped and Arnold raised an eyebrow.

"I just like it okay? Why do you want to know so much anyway?" Helga snapped back.

"Fine, I'll stop asking but I can't guarantee that I'll wear that thing every day…though I do like it…but it looks hard to tie. I honestly don't know how you tie that thing," Arnold said.

"It's not that hard Arnold," she said. She checked her pocket but remembered that they weren't exactly 'her' pockets anymore.

"What?"

"I have ribbon but it's in my pocket…well…your pocket now," Helga said, pointing to his pocket. He looked down and saw her jumper pocket. He reached and found pink ribbon. He handed it to Helga. She took it and tied it in the air, in a perfect bow.

"How did you-"

"Like I said," Helga interrupted. "It's not that hard." Helga took it and put it in "her" hair. Arnold looked up as she redid it into another perfect bow.

"I'm impressed," Arnold said. Helga rolled her eyes.

"I know I know… I'm amazing. Now that we've covered the basics, what do you need me to do every day?"

"Well…wear the hat every day and remember to try really hard to give advice because I don't want to be seen as mean…no offence," Arnold said. Helga rolled her eyes and sat back down from tying the bow.

"Yeah yeah, I know that I'm not nice. Now I think you should leave "my" house. I'm tired," Helga said, putting air quotes around the word my.

"Okay, I'll go now. Bye Helga," Arnold said as he started walking down the steps and toward the door. He opened the door and started off to his new home for a while.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Arnold was half way to his house when he heard yelling. He turned around to see himself running down the sidewalk. He sighed out of exhaustion. He wasn't in the mood for Helga at the moment.

"Arnold…I…need to…tell you…something…really…important," Helga said through breaths.

"What is it?" Arnold asked as politely as he could manage. Helga put her hands on her knees.

"Wow…I ran way too much. Anyway, I need to tell you not to go in my closet. I have…personal stuff in there. Okay?" Helga asked.

Arnold was about to tell her that he already did but knew he might just die if he did. He kept his mouth shut and just nodded. Helga nodded and smiled. She waved good bye, happy that he hadn't interrogated her about why she didn't want him to go in there. She walked towards her new home for a while.

Arnold felt really bad about lying but really had no choice. He really didn't want Helga to kill him. He was too young to die. He decided just to not go in there anymore. He figured because she hadn't told him before not to do it, that he was in the clear. It wasn't like him to find loop holes but he didn't want to feel guilty. He started off to his new home once again, hoping there would be no more interruptions. He was dog tired.

Okay, so I know I got a request for longer chapters. I couldn't do it this time but I promise that I will do my best to do longer chapters. There is a certain time for those and this one just wasn't it. Hope you know why I didn't do it this time.

Also, to the mean reviewers…I try my best on knowing the right writing rules and tools so please be kinder when telling me things. Also, I don't like curse words in my reviews. I mean, you can say them but not in a mean way, please. I am trying to be as kind as I can by asking you all, though most of you have just been wonderful. I'm thankful for very few bad reviews. I am also thankful for so many wonderful and sweet reviews. Also, to the guest reviewers, I so wish I could message you back. Just know that I read every one of my reviews and take them into consideration. Hope you enjoyed! (:
