"The audience should be in awe as they watch the struggle between the two friends as they come to term with their feelings and how they express it to one another. Helga and Arnold I'm coun-"The director stopped and gritted his teeth,
"Miss, Pataki or Mr. Arnold would one of you please MAKE THAT DAMN BABY SHUT THE HELL UP!!" he bellowed and Arnold and Helga scrambled to their screaming baby.
The director placed a hand on his forehead and paced the stage muttering to himself until the crying stopped, Helga and Arnold quickly tiptoed to their seat and mutter an apology.
"Right as I was say-"The director roared as the bell rang indicating that the class was over. Helga grabbed Melissa's carrier/car seat (I think those are really cool! ^_^) and quickly walked away from the auditorium.
Helga ran up to Arnold and handed him the baby, and diaper bag and disappeared behind the wooden double doors to track practice. Arnold sighed and walked to his locker, he placed the baby down and grabbed his books and quickly stuffed them into his book bag. He looked down at Melissa as she slept soundly in her carrier her soft platinum blonde hair lay on her forehead in a little curl, a small hand lay one of her rosy cheeks, a soft smile one her face. Arnold smile, even if she was a doll she looked very realistic.
With a sigh he threw his book bag over one shoulder, the diaper bag over the other and grabbed Melissa as he walked out into the sunny March afternoon.
~*~
The sun's heat beat down on her as sweat poured down her face, as she ran down the track, all thoughts on Arnold.
Do I like him?
(Of course not you moved on)
But maybe I do…
But what if I'm afraid?
(Afraid of what? You loved him before; your crush for him moved on you should do the same)
But he loves me!
(So? Does that mean you have to love him back? He didn't love you when you loved him, he loved Lila)
But I'm not him…
(He humiliated you... Why would care about someone like him?)
Helga wiped away her tears, and stopped running.
"PATAKI!!" The couch screamed,
"What the heck are you doing!?! Finish running!!"
Helga turned and ran all the way to the parking lot and drove out of the school, still thinking about…
Arnold.
~*~
Arnold hummed along to his jazz music as he tucked Melissa to sleep; he quickly glanced at his clock, 7:30. Helga's late; he thought as he turned to open the door, a breathless Helga burst through the door.
"Sorry," she wheezed,
"It's okay I'm not that late for work, well I'm off to listen to Curly's sad, insane life! Bye!" he called as he kissed Melissa and smiled at Helga.
Helga just waved and smiled softly, god I'm acting like such a school girl…
~*~
"Oh, Jordan I've been fighting with myself for so long… I just had to come out and say it!" Helga said as Arnold her hands barely an inch of space between them.
"What Morgan? What's so important?" Arnold whispered as he lowered his head towards her.
"I…I…wanted to let you know that I….." she trailed off as their faces were inches apart.
"What is it?" he whispered as he softly caressed her face.
"I...I love you…" they both leaned in for the kiss but Helga pulled away, blushing.
"Miss Pataiki…" the director growled,
"Please tell me why you PULLED AWAY!!" he bellowed as he threw his script across the floor.
"Yeah Helga" Arnold whispered a hurt look on his face though they were acting he was putting his real feelings for her in his act.
(Maybe she doesn't love you….)
(Maybe you should give up…)
Arnold shook his head, I know she loves me, deep down she does…
"I pulled away because…. Because I think we should save the kiss till the performance." Helga lied as she nervously rubbed her arm.
"Right, well I want you guys to keep practicing, Pataiki I'm not feeling the love form you like I'm feeling it from Arnold I want you guys to work on that." The director called.
Helga and Arnold nodded and hopped off the stage and grabbed their stuff, just as the bell rang.
