And we are back! I wanna apologize real quick for not uploading last week, decided to take a brief break as I've been going thru some rough days last week... But I'm back and there is something else I wanna mention. I'll be having a special announcement in my next story, something more... art related if you can say... So anyhow, I'm back and hope you enjoy these next two chapters!
Around a few hours later, Arnold was on his retractable couch taking a nap, while Rhonda was laying around on his bed half bored as she was messing around with his pets.
Soon she looked over at him as she had a little thought come to mind. "I wonder whether he'll like this or what." She thought.
She soon slowly walked up to him as she then bent down towards him, she briefly giggled as she then slowly started kissing his cheek to see whether he'd wake up.
After two slow kisses, Arnold soon woke up and he saw a smiling Rhonda by his side. "Morning already?" Arnold rubbed his eyes.
"No, silly!" She giggled. "Just wanted to check up on you. You've been napping for about the past hour and I was wondering whether anything is wrong." She then sat down next to him.
"No, nothing's wrong. I just wanted to get a quick refresher y'know."
"And speaking of quick… Arnold, mind giving your girlfriend here a little kiss?" She winked. "You? Asking for a kiss now? I think I heard it all now!" Arnold laughed.
"Well, I can't help myself since you're so adorable." She nuzzled up against him.
Arnold chuckled as he soon put a hand on her chin and started kissing her.
After a few seconds, Rhonda then hugged Arnold as she looked at him with a cute smile. Arnold smiled back as he kissed her forehead.
"Hey Rhonda, up for an ice cream or a milkshake?"
"Hmmm. I'm up for ice cream.. as long as we can share it between you and me." Rhonda winked. "I also wanna ask something else.." Arnold then asked.
"And what's that?"
"Well, you'll probably laugh but uh... Do you wanna… share a stick of gum?… Between the two of us?"
She was at first surprised, but she then giggled as she gave a long kiss on his cheek. "You know what, Arnold? I like the sound of that. As long as it's with you, I won't mind." She then proceeded to give him a long kiss.
Arnold only laughed as he stood up and grabbed her hand. The two soon started to head to slausens for their ice cream.
Later at slausens, the two soon got their ice cream as they decided to head to the park to take in the fresh air there.
At the park, the two were sitting on a bench as they watched the birds fly around and a few dogs playing with their owners.
Arnold and Rhonda soon started wondering what owning a pet of their own would be like.
After each time the two licked the ice cream, they'd share a kiss.
"Arnold, I'm glad you asked me for this. I've been craving this vanilla ice cream for a while now!" Rhonda then kissed his cheek.
"Hey Rhonda, have you ever thought about what the future holds for us?" Arnold soon asked. "Arnold sweetie, all I know is that we'll always be there for each other. We'll always be together forever." She nuzzled her nose against his.
Arnold then smiled as he put an arm over her.
Later On The Next Day
Arnold was about to head to school, he hugged his mother before he left with Gerald.
As the two were walking along, Gerald was telling Arnold about something rather… surprising.
"I'm sorry, WHAT?"
"I mean don't get me wrong! I like Phoebe but.. Nadine has something about her that.. you know?"
"Looks like you have it complicated." Arnold slightly smirked. Gerald only lowered his eyelids as he looked at him.
Shortly after, Rhonda ensnared Arnold into her arms from behind as she gave a long kiss on his cheek. "Morning sweetheart!"
"Morning Princess!" Arnold kissed her back.
"You two have special nicknames for each other now?" Gerald asked in a little jealousy yet happy for the two.
"Well, I've always had a special nickname for Arnold. My special buddy." Rhonda rubbed her cheek against his cheek, making him blush a little.
"Hey Gerald, could you give us a minute? We'll catch up." Arnold asked Gerald. "Whatever you need, loverboy." Gerald teased.
Rhonda giggled as she rubbed her cheek against his again. "I mean, he has a slight point. You are pretty romantic, y'know." Rhonda put a hand on his cheek. "Well that's 'cause I needed you to bring that out of me." Arnold nuzzled his nose against hers.
"Awww. Alright, how about we get to school now and get that over with so we can have another day together."
"How's about a date tonight?" Arnold then asked. "Ouu, a date? I'd love that, Arnold."
Arnold only smiled as he then kissed her.
The two soon caught up with Gerald who they soon found was flirting with Nadine. Rhonda then had a flirty look towards Arnold.
She immediately yanked on his shirt and started kissing Arnold. He was taken by surprise, but he immediately returned the kiss.
Shortly after, Gerald and Nadine smiled at the two lovebirds. Arnold and Rhonda soon separated.
"They look cute together, don't they, Gerald?" Nadine said with a small smile. Gerald put an arm over her. "They do. And I got a great feeling this is just the beginning for them."
Arnold and Rhonda were holding hands as their foreheads touched, as the two then let out a loving sigh.
Nadine and Gerald started walking to school, while Arnold and Rhonda followed behind them, mostly focused on each other.
Later On In The Day
In the school library, Arnold was reading several books on Scarlet Macaws and interesting facts about them. While reading his book, a certain girl crept up on him…
She immediately covered his eyes. "Oh Arnold, guess who it is." Rhonda then giggled.
Arnold only chuckled. "Oh Rhonda, I know it's you!" She then uncovered his eyes. "Rhonda, do you have something in your mouth right now? Since I can see you chewing on something." Arnold then asked.
"Oh Arnold, don't you remember? You wanted to share a stick of gum. And since I already had a stick, figured I minus well use it."Rhonda briefly giggled as she sat down next to Arnold.
"Well, you want the gum now or later?" Rhonda asked as she leaned close to Arnold.
Arnold didn't answer. Instead, he cupped her face and started kissing her passionately. After the two separated, Rhonda had a goofy smile on her face while Arnold looked lovesick at her.
"Hand over the gum would you, sweetie?" Arnold smirked at her. She only nodded happily as she took the gum out of her mouth and handed it to Arnold.
Right as Arnold put the gum in his mouth, Rhonda then surprised him with a quick kiss.
"That's for surprising me." Rhonda smirked at Arnold.
Arnold only chuckled as Rhonda noticed what he was reading.
"Hey Arnold, mind if I read along with you?"
"Of course! Why wouldn't I?" Arnold put an arm over her shoulder as the two started reading the book together.
Later Throughout The Day
Later on after school, Arnold and Rhonda were hand-in-hand as they were walking home, they were also discussing the plan for their date later tonight.
"And just so you know Arnold, I'll be wearing the best dress you'll ever see!" Rhonda nuzzled against his cheek. "A dress for our date… or maybe a wedding dress?" Arnold smirked as he leaned close to her, making her blush.
"Marriage? Now? Arnold darling, how about we wait a few more years, and then you'll finally give me that ring, ok?" Rhonda then giggled as she gave a small kiss on his cheek.
Arnold briefly chuckled as their foreheads soon touched.
"Who would've thought me and her could've ever been in a relationship? Gerald was right!" Arnold thought to himself.
"I would've never thought Arnold would actually love me back! What a dream come true!" Rhonda thought.
The two then kissed as they knew they had a very bright and special future together.
The second-to-last chapter is complete! One more to go! See you in the next!
