Day One
Helga's POV
I was laying on my bed with a man on top of me, but I couldn't see who it was. I tried to decipher the face of the man who I was having sex with. I heard his voice, but it was muffled. I couldn't make it out. Just as I begin to recognize the voice he flipped me over and his face began come into focus. To my surprise the man on top of me was, Arnold.
No one's POV
It had been 8 years since she told Arnold that she loved him, they had became closer over the years. You wouldn't say that they were best friends, but good acquaintances. Sure, Helga was and still is in love with him but she would never tell him that. Helga herself had changed a lot over the years, she no longer had a mono-brow, and her hair had long and rich grown down towards the middle of her back. Helga was very pretty; her breast had grown in perfectly round and full. Helga's body had all the right curves in all the right places, no man would refuse her. Arnold was pretty much the same, he had grown into his football shaped head. He was very attractive, he was muscular but not bulky. Now, Gerald, he no longer had his tower of hair, he now grown an Afro. He was also very attractive, Gerald thought himself to be a 'playa', considering he was 'with' a different girl every other day. But, not of recently, because Phoebe is starting to win all his affection. Speaking of Phoebe she got rid of her glasses in the 8th grade, and now wears contacts, she is fairly small, only reaches 5'1 and is build very petite.
Helga's POV
When I woke up from my dream I was drench in sweat, I had never had a wet dream about Arnold before. I rolled over and thought about my dream I remembered how good it made me feel to be held in 'his' arms and I knew that I wanted to feel like that for real. I knew what I would have to do in order to make my dreams a reality. I had to tell Arnold. So, I got out of bed and got dressed. I ran down the stairs, ran pass Miriam, who was sleep on the kitchen contour, got a banana out the refrigerator, and left out. When I was walking I couldn't stop thinking about that dream and how I felt, it was magical. I was so caught up in thought, that I didn't see the object of my affections walking right in front of me. And as always, ran right in to him.
"Hey, watch it football head." I yelled as I got off the ground and dusted off my pink pants.
"Sorry Helga I didn't see you," Arnold said. While I was getting my books off the ground I realized how I could confess my undying love for Arnold, again.
"Hey Arnold can you come over my house tonight around 7, I really need to talk to you?"
"Sure Helga, what do you want to talk about?" He said as he handed me my Chemistry book.
"Thanks, I'll tell you when you get there. OK?"
"OK, well, since where going in the direction why don't we walk to school together? Wha da ya say?" he asked as he gave his famous ear-to-ear smile. 'I can't believe it, Arnold, my love wants to walk me to school. Be still my tortured heart. Soon, Arnold soon I will tell you how I feel my football headed angel. *Sigh*.' I stood there just staring at him. I realized how stupid she must have looked, just standing there with her mouth open, I probably looked like an idiot.
"OK football head, but don't think just because I'm letting you walk me to school that I'll be nice or something." Arnold laughed.
When we got to school I saw Phoebe standing with Gerald, Arnold stared to make his way over to them, I followed.
" What is, up Arnold my brother, my main man, my hombre, my best buddy, my--"
"I get the point Gerald, " Arnold turned to Phoebe, "Hey Pheebs"
Phoebe smiled at Arnold, "Hello Arnold, are you prepared for the Chemistry test today. I know I am, Gerald and I studied all week." Gerald gave Arnold a wink telling him that studying is not all they did.
"I don't know I tried studying but I just don't get that stuff." Arnold and Phoebe suddenly got engaged into a conversation about how atoms defuse or some crap I wasn't really listening. Like a signal from God, the bell rang signaling that we were late. Phoebe nearly fainted
"Oh no I can't believe I'm late, this will go on my permeated record. What will they think at Yale, Oh I know ' I sorry Ms. Heyerdahal but we can't accept you, because you were late for school in the 12 grade.' I'm going to die."
"Phoebe calm down this ain't going on yo record," Gerald said as he picked his hair.
" CALM DOWN, CALM DOWN, YOUR THE REASON I'M LATE. MISTER 'my Afro ain't strait. I can't leave looking like this.' " She said mimicking Gerald. "GOSH, AND AIN'T IS NOT PROPER ENGLISH "
"I've never seen Phoebe yell at Gerald before." I said to Arnold.
" Me neither I thought it was unheard of." Arnold and me just stared in awe at this new experience.
Gerald responded in annoyance. "Phoebe please don't correct me, and you know how I feel bout my fro. You know I have to look just right for my adoring fans." He said as he winked at some passing freshman that nearly fainted
"I am not listening to this today. My adoring fans this, my adoring fans that, and I AM SO TIRED OF IT!"
"Come on girl you know my fans are what make me."
"Oh Gerald I don't know why I put up with you"
"Oh I know why, because you love me girl, you know you can't resisted this sexy black chocolate right heia who could resisted this heia?" They went on like that till we walked in to the class. Gerald was still talking about how sexy he was, boy is he self-absorbed. Anyway school went by kind of fast, I was so nervous I didn't know how Arnold would react after I tell him I loved him a second time. He'll have to believe me this time.
I walked home very slow today, I had no idea what I was going to say to him. 'OK how do this sound, Arnold I know I've said this before but I love you.' No that's not it, OK what about this' Arnold my love I have longed to have you at my side for years, I have loved you since pre- school.' No way that's spooky, how would you feel having someone tell you that. No way, I'll just make it up as I go. I got to my house around 4 after a stop for some bubble gum ice cream, my fav. Anyway when I got in the house Miriam was in the same place I left her, sleep on the kitchen counter. Bob had made his way home, he was yelling at the TV again.
" Bob, Miriam I'm home," I lowered my voice " not that you care." I went upstairs to my room to prepare for my beloved.
It was about 6:55, I was listen to Pink's Pill when the doorbell rung. I practically flew down the stairs. When I got to the door there he was the boy of my dreams standing at my door. I was in a trance, he was so beautiful I couldn't take my eyes off of him. Just as I was getting into a good groining mood, Arnold interrupted my thoughts.
" Um Helga hello Earth to Helga come in."
" Yes Arnold" I said very seductively, with out thinking "I mean yea football head, come in" I let him in I couldn't believe Arnold, the owner of my childhood affections, was in my house. I led him to my room and I was very anxious. When I open my door Arnold's dropped in awe.
"You sure have a lot of pink things."
"Yea it's my favorite color. "
"Oh I see, anyway what did you want to tell me Helga."
" Oh yea that, uh Arnold can you sit down please"
Arnold set on the end of my bed. I continue "Arnold what I wanted to talk to you about was…" I couldn't do it I was at a lost for words. I can't believe this I am so close I won't stop now I have to keep going. Arnold just stared at me, I tried to go on.
"Arnold what I'm trying to say is that I, I, I, I well I'm trying to say" ' just say it, Helga say it' is that I lo..." I took a deep breath. "I love you Arnold" When those four little words came out of my mouth if felt like a damn had be broken I was flowing out like a river to my beloved.
"I've been in love with you since pre-school, what I told you on top of that FDI building was no lie I'm in love with you Arnold. I had dedicated my childhood life to you, you are the only resond that I breathe this moment. I would have told you sooner, but I just was afraid. And Arnold you were right it was a cover, my mean act, I was just to hide my true feelings for you. Oh Arnold, I am willing to do what ever you want, I don't care what it is Arnold. I will do anything for you, I'll do what ever 'your' heart desires."
I jump on to Arnold's lap and stared to kiss him very hard and passionately, tongue and all. I couldn't control myself. Then when I was about to pull away he stared to kiss me back. I felt like I had died and gone to heaven and then some. He moved his hands over my back and down my butt. He lowered me on to my bed, while getting on top of me. He moved his hand up my shirt and unhooked my bra, when he got it off he tossed it across the room. He began palming my breast. He then reached down to my pants he undid them. He put his hands down them as if to take them off. I could believe this. He moved them down slightly, when he stopped.
"Helga, I'm sorry I can't do this." Arnold said out if breath.
"Why not football head?!" I said angrily
"Because Helga... I," then he inhaled deeply, "I have a girlfriend, I'm sorry." Arnold got off of me, and set at the edge of my bed. I set up on my elbows.
"Well Arnold she doesn't have to know, this could be 'our' little secret" I rubbed Arnold's back while speaking seductively. Arnold jumped at my touch
"NO, Helga that's not right. I can't do that to.. to.. to... Lila." Those words cut me like a knife. Lila, the bitch I loved to hate was keeping Arnold from me.
" Lila that annoying bitch, your dating 'HER'. She really won't find out, she is really and completely dumb, not to mention stupid. She a total bimbo." Arnold gave me a stone cold stare.
"I'm out of here." Arnold said very coldly as he got up to leave.
"NO, Arnold I'm sorry, please don't go please." My eyes began to sting I tried to hold back the tears, but they came streaming down my face. I couldn't let him go, not again. I jumped out of my bed and wrapped myself around his legs. I was like a begging child trying to get their daddy to stay home from work.
"Arnold, please I'll do anything .I can't go on with out you Arnold please." I tried to talk between sobs. He stepped back with me hanging to him, and not letting go. He grabbed my hands and lifted me from the ground firmly yet gentle. Arnold set me on my bed. His face was inches away from my own, I kissed Arnold as hard as I could. Just when I was going to give up I felt Arnold's tongue brush against my own, but then he pulled away quickly. He backed away with his eyes cast down.
"Helga I'm sorry I have to go. I can't do this. I have to go." He walked to the door, grabbed the knob. I couldn't just sit there, I got up and put a hand his shoulder.
Arnold turned around slowly, "Please?" I said in soft whisper with tears in my eyes. I tried to search is face for some kind of emotion, some kind of answer, but there was nothing. I got on my knees, he followed me with his eyes. "I'm am begging you, I am on my knees for peet's sake. Please don't go."
" Helga I'm sorry, I can't. I'm sorry." And that was it, he left me there on the floor, on my hands a knees. He just... left. He was gone out of my life forever.
Arnold's POV
I ran out of Helga's house, and home as fast as I could. I kept running till I got to my room. When I got there I pulled out my couch, and called Gerald.
"Hello?" Gerald asked in his sexy 'quiver' voice. He must have thought I was a girl.
"Gerald?" I said very panicky
"Hey Arnold, what's wrong man you sound all scared, and stupid, and dumb, and retarded, and-"
"GERALD!" I screamed before he got to carried away he has the tendency to do that.
"Oh sorry man wha's up?"
"Gerald you will never guess what happened to me today!"
"What man?" The Sarcasm was undeniable.
"Man, Helga told me she loved me." There was a long pause before he answered me, which made me really nerves.
"Arnold you do realize we have had this conversation befo?" He said matter-of-factly.
"I know Gerald, but this time was different. Helga didn't just kiss me, man, she-" Gerald cut me off before I could finish.
"Arnold, I didn't thank you had it in you, ya hit dat Arnold ya done got in Helga G. Pataki's well ya know. Man, I know why I like ya, because you are the man. I knew some of my playa skills would rub off on ya man."
"Gerald no that's not what happened. We didn't have sex, Gerald."
"You didn't have sex?!" Gerald sounded kind of ticked off. " You set up here and let me poor my heart out to you, and you didn't even hit dat. Arnold I am appalled."
"Gerald let me tell you what happened, well she invited me over and-"
"You were in her house and you did hit that, I can't believe this, keep going"
"Anyway she took me up to her room and-"
"You were in her room, Arnold do you know what a privilege that is."
" Gerald can I please tell you the story?" Gerald's cutting me off was getting annoying.
"Oh yea go head I just can not believe you didn't hit that I am so upset with you."
"Yea OK Gerald, anyway, she set me on her bed………." I stopped waiting for Gerald to say something.
"I'm not even gone say nothing cause I know that you know that you was wrong."
"Gerald I haven't even got to the worse part yet." " This gets worse, oh Jesus."
"OK, so she set me down and she was kind of shaky at first but when she said it, it was like her walls came tumbling down………" So I continued to tell Gerald the story. Of course he would cut me off ever 5 second to tell me how stupid I was for not hittin that, so he would say. I told him everything, only part I left out was how bad I wanted to stay. I would never admit that to Gerald he would never let me live it down.
"You know what, you got a thing for letting people po' their hearts out to you. And after their finish you crash 'em." Gerald said eating a Twix.
"I do not. People, don't give me a chance to respond. How was I supposed to know she was going to kiss me?" I said in my defense.
"You didn't have to kiss her back, it might not have been so bad."
" Whatever man." I really didn't want to hear this right now, and I knew Gerald knew this.
"You would 'whatever' me because you know you was wrong. But, anyway, you tryin to tell me that she had her legs practically wide open, and you walked away. You are one bold brotha, well not brotha, well you know what I mean. Man, I don't think I could have done it. I just can't walk away from a freebie, with no commitments, no back charges, no hidden agreements-"
"Gerald you're making her sound like a car." I said laughing.
"Man you know what I mean shut up and let me finish. Anyway, I mean it was bold, but it was stupid. I mean not just regular stupid, real stupid. I mean, stupid like Eugene stupid. I think that what you done did was the stupidest thing any man could do. I think that you are the only man on earth that will refuse Helga G. Pataki. I mean if Phoebe was not her best friend and if Helga was not so viscous, I woulda been hit that. Cause that girl is like the, the, the-"
"The most pretties, cutest, finest, sexiest, hottest, voluptuous, delicious female I know."
" Yea," Gerald looked at me funny, I don't know why though. "I think you right, I don't know bout all that delicious stuff, but yea. Hey Arnold I think you got a thing for her, because nobody would be talkin' bout nobody like that unless they got a thing for 'em."
" No way, Helga, she terrorized me though out my childhood. No Gerald I don't have a thing for Helga I just think she's hot that's all."
"Yea what ever 'I just think she's hot'" Gerald said mocking me making himself sound white, I hate when he does that. "You didn't just say she was hot you said that she was delicious. And again nobody would say that unless they got a thing for 'em. OK just think about it?"

"Gerald you're making her sound like a car." I said laughing.
"Man you know what I mean shut up and let me finish. Anyway, I mean it was bold, but it was stupid. I mean not just regular stupid, real stupid. I mean, stupid like Eugene stupid. I think that what you done did was the stupidest thing any man could do. I think that you are the only man on earth that will refuse Helga G. Pataki. I mean if Phoebe was not her best friend and if Helga was not so viscous, I woulda been hit that. Cause that girl is like the, the, the-"
"The most pretties, cutest, finest, sexiest, hottest, voluptuous, delicious female I know."
" Yea," Gerald looked at me funny, I don't know why though. "I think you right, I don't know bout all that delicious stuff, but yea. Hey Arnold I think you got a thing for her, because nobody would be talkin' bout nobody like that unless they got a thing for 'em."
" No way, Helga, she terrorized me though out my childhood. No Gerald I don't have a thing for Helga I just think she's hot that's all."
"Yea what ever 'I just think she's hot'" Gerald said mocking me making himself sound white, I hate when he does that. "You didn't just say she was hot you said that she was delicious. And again nobody would say that unless they got a thing for 'em. OK just think about it?"
