Arnold's POV
I bobbed up and down in the warm ocean water that late afternoon, finally sinking below the waves. Cameras rolled as I "drowned" and was brought up on shore.
You see, my friend (I guess you could say) Helga and I won this sandcastle building contest during spring break. The prize? We got to appear on the hit TV show Babewatch.
I was playing the rescuey. You know, the kid who always get caught in the ripe tides and sinks? That's me. I don't know why Helga got to be the lifeguard.
Anyway, the lifeguard had just begun mouth-to-mouth, when I heard a familiar voice order "Out of my way, Barbie!" Suddenly a pair of lips were pressed firmly against my own, soft and warm. A pleasant tingling sensation surged through me. I opened my eyes to find out the owner of these lips was…Helga?
I lay there, unblinking, pondering my situation, cameras still rolling. "Cut!" the director yelled a few seconds later. "I said 'CUT!' little girl!"
Helga pulled away, seemingly reluctant, and sat on the sand for a minute, her cheeks flushed. "Um, uh, a, sorry about that football head!" Helga apologized, stumbling over her words. He rose to her feet, brushed the sand from herself and started towards the dressing room.
"Great job people, we got that in one take! Print!" the director, Mr.Robins ordered. 'Only one take?' I thought to myself, pushing a strand of hair out of my face. ' I wouldn't have minded if we'd done more.'
