I hate being so nice. I can't leave people hanging very long at all, can I? Nope, I can't, and do you
know why? That's how I was raised, to be so nice it drives me crazy. So, here's your fan-fic
chapter!!

Disclaimer: I own: nothing but a few fan-fics and fan-arts. Get the picture?


Arnold continued dragging Helga to the car, until she couldn't take it anymore. She dug her feet
into the ground, making him stop. "Arnold, are you ok? Ever since I said 'hopefully next is going
to be my husband' which was just a few minutes ago, you have been dragging me, and frowning.
"What's wrong?"

Arnold sighed, and looked down at the ground. He had no answer; well, he did, but he thought
that she would laugh. "Well... the thing is... I have been thinking... and..." Arnold reached into his
jacket pocket, then suddenly Park came running up, and Arnold took his hand out of his pocket.
"Park... what's the matter?" Arnold asked as Park tried to catch his breath.

"L...Li...Lila...watch out for her. Sh...she is going to... invite you to Rhonda's house for a 'get to
know you better than before' thing. And, I heard that she is going to try and break you two apart.
Whatever you do, DON'T go to it. Ok? DON'T. Got it?" Park stated, rather quickly. Arnold and
Helga looked to each other with their eyes as big as bowls.

Arnold turned his head back to Park, and nodded it. "Yes, will do Park. Will do." he said, still
surprised at the news he just heard. Park smiled, sighed, and walked back inside. Arnold turned
his head back to Helga who's eyes were full of tears. "Helga, what's wrong?"

"Oh, it's just the fact that Lila comes back, and wants you back. All to herself. It won't happen
while I'm alive!!!" Helga cried, and enclosed Arnold in a very tight, tight, hug. "Never will she get
you... never."

Little did they know that they were being watched. "Oh, don't worry... you don't have to know
about it Helga." the person in the bushes laughed, silently, then sped off towards home.

Lila walked in the front door, and called out, "Rhonda, I'm back, and I have wonderful news!"
she walked into the large living room, and collapsed on the couch. She kicked her shoes off, and
turned the tv on just as Rhonda walked in.

"What is it?" Rhonda asked, sitting down next to Lila. She (Lila) turned her head to Rhonda,
smirking.

"I found out how to get Arnold back to me. Send Helga off somewhere to visit some family for
the holidays, and Arnold will stay here. Then, I get him all alone, and... well, you should know my
thoughts by now, I told you it before I left that I would do it."


Rhonda nodded her head, and sighed. 'Little do you know that Arnold goes everywhere with
Helga.' she half smiled, and giggled, making Lila raise an eyebrow. "Oh, that is a wonderful plan,
Lila. It will really get them away from each other."

"Hey, I have an ever so bothering feeling that you don't think it will work. Why won't it work?"
Lila crossed her arms, and her legs.

"Well, Arnold goes EVERYWHERE with Helga. I don't see how you could get Helga to go
without Arnold, and Arnold to let her go by herself." Rhonda chuckled, shrugging her shoulders,
not noticing Lila's menacing look.

"Look... don't you remember something about me getting Arnold to ask me to the prom before he
asked Helga? Trust me, I'm a charmer." she tossed her hair over her shoulders, and turned her
head to the tv again.

Arnold and Helga got in the car, and drove down the road to a big white and red house. Helga
studied it, and looked back to Arnold. "So, who's house is this?"

Arnold sighed, and got out of the car. "It's Harold and Patty's. Come on, lets go, not sit there
staring at the house like it grew a nose." Helga chuckled, and got out of the car. they walked up
to the door, and knocked on it. Soon, a small two year old opened it. He looked almost exactly
like Harold, except with light brown hair. "Hello, may we see your parents?"

The little boy, looked up at Arnold and Helga in confusion. "Who a you?" he asked, slightly
closing the door.

"I'm Arnold, and she's Helga. What's your name?" Arnold asked, bending down to reach eye
level with the boy.

"I'm Keith. My mommy an daddy aren here wight now. I'm wiff my babysitter, Lally, want to talk
her?" Keith asked, opening the door wider. Suddenly, a medium height red haired teenaged girl
walked up behind Keith. He looked up, and smiled. "Hi Lally, this is Oswald and Olga."

"That's Arnold and Helga." Arnold corrected. "Hi, Lally was it?" Arnold held out his hand and
Lally took it in hers.

"Actually, my name is Leila, but he can't get names correct. It's nice to meet you." Leila picked
Keith up, and opened the door wider. "I'm just curious; why are you guys here?"

"We came to see Harold and Patty, cause we haven't seen them in years." Helga said, wrapping
her right arm around Arnold's shoulders.

Leila nodded her head, and smiled. "Ok, I was just wondering. Mr. and Mrs. Berman aren't here
right now. There at an oh so interesting movie. But, do you want to stay here until they get back?
I'm oh so sure they would like to come home and see you here." Helga's eye began to twitch.
"Are you ok, Helga?"

"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Just an eye twitch, nothing to take me to the hospital about. Heh, heh,
heh." 'Is it just me or does this girl act a little too much like Lila used to?' "I think Arnold and I
better be going. Don't you think, honey?" she grabbed his arm, and her nails sunk in.

"Ow! Yeah, we have to--ow, let go of my arm! go. Ow!" Arnold tried pulling his arm away from
Helga, but she was already pulling him down the stairs to their car. "What was all that, ow, about,
ow?!" Arnold exclaimed, and pulled his arm away from her. He pulled up his coat and shirt
sleeves to see how bad his "wound" was. He could see about ten deep nail marks.

"Didn't you notice how much she was like the old Lila!? She was evil, an evil girl, and I don't
want to be in the same house with her." Helga crossed her arms, and shook her head. Arnold
stared at her, then sighed.

"That's the only reason why you almost ripped my skin off, then we couldn't stay to wait for
Harold and Patty?" he asked, making Helga grin gingerly, and shrug. "And how do you know she
was evil? She could have just talked that way. Come on, lets go visit Stinky and Gloria." he
grabbed Helga's arm, and pushed her into the car, then got in himself.
