Temptation
Chapter 4
I was chillin at the spot And my posse's four deep Got my man on my mind turn my head what did i see?
'Ohmygodohmygod OH.......MY......GOD!" Thought Helga as his lips plundered her's. 'He's kissing me! My childhood sweetheart is actually kissing me. And he knows its me!'
Arnold 's hand slipped behind her head to support it while he deepened the kiss. His other hand found its way to the small of her back, pressing her closer. He manuvered her up agianst the wall. She moaned as he pressed even closer.
Her own moan is what brought her to her senses. She moved her hands from where they had been resting on his hips to his shoulders. She applied gentle pressure and he immediatly released her lips. But he didn't step away from her and he kept her agianst the wall.
Helga had to take a couple of deep breaths before she could speak. "Arnold this isn't right. I have a boyfriend,"
Arnold just looked at her, so Helga continued.
"Arnold let me go." She said, and he stepped back. She moved until she no longer felt so trapped. Which by the way, landed her in the middle of the hallway.
"Arnold look, we can't do this,"
"Why," he asked leaning agianst the wall.
"Because I have a boyfriend!" She screammed. When Helga realized how loudly she'd said that she looked up and down the hallway to see if anybody had heard.
"Look," She said in a lower tone," You don't even know me anymore Arnold. I'm not that nine year old girl anymore. I grew up, I matured. I know that, but you don't seem too. We can't have a relationship I have a boyfriend and even if I didn't, I don't know if I would go out with you. Arnold get to know me and then we can be friends. But thats it."
Helga turned and walked back into the movie. Arnold just stood there. She was right he didn't know her anymore. He tasted his lips. They tasted of her. He smiled. They may not know each other anymore but it sure would be fun to get reacquainted.
He smiled agian and followed Helga.

After the movie Helga and Arnold made their way back to her house.
"Look Helga," Arnold said as they stopped in front of her porch, "I'm sorry that I did that. I wasn't thinking."
Helga looked at him, nodded, and went into the house.
Up in her room Helga watched Arnold head for home. When he was finally out of sight she laid down on her bead and hugged her pillow to her.
She wondered as she stared up at the ceiling, what had made Arnold become the way he was today. The likable boy she used to know was nowhere to be found. Instead in his place was this man.
Maybe man was too strong a word. Arnold had become this . . . . person. This person who was very sure of himself. This person who took what he wanted. this person whose eyes were now clouded when they used to be clear.
Helga sighed and rolled over. She knew that Arnold needed her. She knew that what ever was wrong with him only she could heal. She knew that. She knew it deep in her heart. The only question was what needed healing, and how was she going to do it?
First she knew that had to get to know each other. Find out what each other had grown into, then and only then would she make her move.

Helga looked at Patty in astonishment.
"He actually asked you to marry him? Damn girl, after one date!"
Patty nodded and Helga, Phoebe, and Rhonda laughed uproariously.
They were at the cafe that the kids all referred to as 'The Spot'.
"Oh God." Said Helga in dismay
"What?" asked Phoebe.
"Johnathan" Helga ground as he spotted her and headed in their direction.
"What are you upset about?" Asked Rhonda
"Yeasterday she couldn't remember his name. She's probably embarrassed." Said Patty
Just then Johnathan came up to their table.
"Hello ladies," He greeted them just before he kissed Helga on the cheek.
Johnanthan sat down and the girls started to talk about school with Johnathan just looking on.
"By the way where were you last night Helga?" Johnathan asked suddenly as if he had just remember he'd wanted to ask her that. "I tried to call you."
"I was at the movies with some friends," she said absently.
"Who," he asked.
"Phoebe, Gerald, and Arnold," Helga answered him giving him a strange look.
"Someone say my name?"
Helga turnned around to see Arnold and Gerald standing behind her.
"Hi," Greeted the girls in unison.
"We were just talking about you," Said Rhonda
Helga gave her a look that said "butt out!"
"Yeah what about?" Asked Gerald as he pulled up a chair next to Phoebe.
"Oh Helga was just saying that she was at the movies with you, Phoebe, and Arnold last night," Replied Rhonda.
"Oh yeah, we went to see Drumline." Said Arnold as he positioned his seat on the other side of Helga. "It was pretty good."
"I liked the end," Put in Phoebe.
Helga agreed
"Yeah the showdown was good." Said Gerald.
"I liked the drillteam." Said Helga.
"So whats up for tonight?" asked Gerald.
"Sleepover at Helga's," Answered Phoebe.
"Phoebe's bringing the movie," said Helga.
"What movie?" Asked Arnold
"Purple Rain!" Said the girls as one.
"That my dear is a classic," said Phoebe at Johnathan's expression.
"You guys are invited to stop in," Said Helga talking to Gerald and Arnold.
"I can't come," Said Johnathan,"I have to work."
Helga made the appropriate reply and turned back to her friends realizing that she had forgotten he was even there.
