Olga Have I loved...Helga have I hated

Disclaimer: I don't own Hey Arnold! Get it, got it...good!! And I also don't own Jacob Have I Loved. (The title and all)

A/n: This is my first story all so please R and R... anything is welcome! Just as long as I know how im doing!!!!


The morning sun rises through the window and cast a pink glow on the wall of a bedroom. Tick, tock, tick tock...The only noise heard is from a clock slowly but steadily ticking time away and a small snore from a lump on the bed. A knock on the bedroom door is heard and then...

"Helga! It's time to get up!" Mariem shouted.

Silence is heard from the other side of the room. "Helga!!! Get up!" Mariem shouts.

In the bed, a shape moves underneath the blanket.

"Fine Mother!" An agiteated Helga replys. Ugh...once again im forced to get up to another day of boring life....Why can't things ever go my way...?

Helga forces herself out of bed and slowly dresses herself. The old taste of middle school havn't changed that much...except for the fact that the dress has turned into a skirt and the unibrow had a permanent appointment with the beauty salon. Helga preceeds to walk downstairs and eats breakfast.

"Oh Helga! Im so excited!" Marium stated happily.

"Well thats a change" Helga wrily thought to herself. "And why are you so excited Marium?" Helga asked her mother, not really caring why.

"Because! Our darling Olga is coming for a visit today! She wants to talk to you about her collage and how she's looking forward to talking to you about collage placement and everything" Mariem exclamied.

"Thats really great mother...I can hardly wait" Helga said sarcastically.

Mariem ignored Helga and walked away grinning and talking about what she was going to do when Olga came home.

Once again it seems "I just live in Olga's shadow..." Helga thought. She slowly packed her lunch and then left the house.

As she walked over to Phoebe's house, one of her best friends that had even stayed by her in her times of depression, she thought about life and how it treated her. Everyday the same thing...im ignored by my parents...the guy iv loved for about 14 years decides one day to drop his nice guy image, tell me to "fuck off" when i teased him, and then proceeded to push me out of his way....But maybe today i'll try and just once really try to be happy and maybe I can even make a few new friends... Helga was thinking all this and other things when she arrived at Phoebe's house. She knocked on the door and Phoebe opened it.

"Cough...Helga, it seems I have gotten a slight cold and it seems as though I will not be comming to school today." Phoebe said.

"Oh, okay then Phee. Hope ya feel better..." Helga said.

"I hope so too." Phoebe said. After they said their goodbyes, Helga walked to short, but mentally long walk to the place called high school.

"Hey Helga!" Laura said. Laura was the only one in the group of friends that had a social status; the one of being the most popular girl in school. Why she hung out with Helga and her friends was a mystery to everyone.

"Hi Laura." Helga said.

"Why are you happy today," Laura joked, "you usually respond to me with a cold: Hello, or just a plain Hi. But never a Hi Laura!!!!"

Helga laughed and flashed a rare smile that only a few people besides her friends ever saw.

"Iv decided that today is the day that im going to accually do something for my life and try and be happy even though my life basically sucks shit." Helga stated.

"Well that seems interesting! Good luck!" Laura said and then laughed.

"How about we start now? Theirs Blaine over there!" Laura said and then pulled Helga in that direction

"Hey Helga....hi Laura" Blaine said.

"Okay...be nice...even if Blaine is a guy know for having as many girlfriends as China has people..." Helga said to herself.

"Hi Blaine...how are you?" Helga said.

"Fine baby...as long as your in my life." Blaine said.

"Okay I give up," Helga said to herself. "Don't ever call me baby Blaine." Helga said angrily and stomped away.

Helga walked to class as Laura said to Blaine: "Don't mind her...you know how she is."

"Life sucks so badly... Im always either being excluded or exploited as a girl who can easily be taken advantage of and is Olga Pataki's sister..." Helga thought.

"What's the matter with the loser girl over there?...she seems a little of today...." Arnold thought to himself.

"Hello class! I have the 'special' opportunity to be your 'special' substitute while your 'special' teacher Mr. Velmont is gone because he felt as though his 'special' attributes to this 'special' school wern't being used to the fullest amount." Mr. Simmons stated.

"Oh dear! It seems as though I have a few students from my own 'special' school here. Hello Arnold! Hello Helga! Are you still writting poetry? I hope you are!!" Mr. Simmons exclaimed.

"What is he doing....?" Helga and Arnold both thought to themselves.

" Wow class! It seems as thoug I saved this piece of poetry that Helga had written in 5th grade! Would you like to hear this 'special' poem?" Mr. Simmons asked.

"Yes!" Was the response of the class.

"No!" Helga shouted. "Please Mr. Simmons, don't read it!"

"Now now Helga..." Mr. Simmons said. "As I was about to say, this is a special poem written by Helga Pataki:"

"I wouldn't die for you...i'd rather live to love you. You could take my arms, id still find a way to touch you. You could take my legs...and I'll still run to your rescue...." Mr. Simmons recited while sobbing in between each word.

"Wow, I never knew Helga could write poetry like that," Arnold thought, "I can't believe she never let anyone read it in grade school...its really good"

"Oh no! Everyones looking at my all funny...they all know about my love for him!! Damnit! Damn you Mr. Simmons!"
Helga mentally cursed. "May I be exscused? Please?" Helga said.

"Sure Helga! And while you're gone, i'll read some more of your 'special' poetry to the class!" Mr. Simmons said.

Helga sighed and then walked out of the classroom. No one saw the tears beggining to brim in her eyes except for one person...
