...I thinks that's everyone! Now on with the story!
FLASHBACK TO LAST NIGHT...
Arnold picked up his hat and went home, his heart heavy with regret.
Why did I say that? I just broke her heart for the second time in a week. It was like I was playing with her heart this whole time...but I wasn't. I truly do like her, a lot. I just don't know if I'm IN LOVE with her. No wonder she hid this from me all these years.
*Later*
"Hey, Olga, one of your little friends is on the line!" Bob shouted upstairs.
"Hello?" Helga answered, wiping her tears.
"It's Phoebe."
"Oh, hey."
"Helga, you sound a little downcast. Is something wrong?"
"Oh, no. I'm just peachy. Anybody would be if the boy they've loved since preschool asked them on a date, kissed them, called them an Angel and then said 'I don't think I'm in love with you'. Yup, I'm just terrific." her voice cracked, and a few tears escaped her hold.
"Helga, I'm coming over."

"So what exactly happened?"
Helga sniffled. "After you and Geraldo left, I wanted to thank him for standing up for me, and he called me an Angel. Then everything went downhill from there."
She paused, Phoebe patting her on the back comfortingly.
"So then I asked why the heck did me call me an Angel, and why he kissed me after our date. He said 'i don't know!' I don't know! What the heck? Then he said all the feelings are scaring him. I asked him that is it scary to be in love with me and he said...he said..."
Phoebe passed her a box of tissues.
Helga blew her nose. "He said, and his exact words were, 'I don't think I'm in love with you'." She burst into tears.
Phoebe patted her back. "I think he's confused about his feelings toward you."
"Why the heck would he be confused? He's the one that asked me on a date. He's the one that kissed me, and he's the one that called he an Angel. All he did was bring my hopes up and then blow it down like dynamite." She stuffed her face in front of a pillow.
"And he knew, Pheebs. It's not like he was clueless."
She nodded. "Maybe some music will cheer you up. It helps me."
Helga shrugged, her face still in the pillow. "Why not?"
Phoebe tuned the radio to 100.3.
"And now Carly Rae Jepsin with 'Call Me Maybe'!"
"I threw a wish in the well,
don't ask me, I'll never tell,
I looked to you as it fell,
But now you're in my way.
I'd trade my soul for a wish,
pennies and dimes for a kiss,
I wasn't looking for this,
But now you're in my way-"
Pheobe quickly switched stations to 103.5.
"...The one thing I needed,
was the one thing I couldn't find.
And you were there at the turn,
waiting to let me know...
we're building it up...
to break it back down..."
The station was switched (again) to 102.7
"Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is
I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same..."
Pheobe shut the radio off and looked at Helga apologetically.
"Yup, I feeling so much better now."
Pheobe sighed. There wasn't much else to do.
Don't you hate it when that happens? All rights reserved to the singers...yeah.
Review please!
