Chapter 30
Helga's Room
Helga did get up at 5:30am but decided to try and go back to bed until it was about 8/ 8:30am. She was fortunate, she did get those extra couple hours of sleep. BEEP...BEEP "This is it Folks, one more day til Halloween, and today and tomorrow for your enjoyment we will be playing nonstop Halloween songs...This is PST. 94.5 giving you the lastest updates, starting with the weather...Well John it looks like its going to be another chilly one today, highs in the low 55's and sunny..."( Helga reaches over the nightstand and shuts off the radio and alarm) YAWNS... STRETCHES
"Man...What a night...i think i could have slept all day!" Helga said still trying to wake up...
Arnold's Room
Same as Helga, Arnold did try to go back to sleep and successfuly managed to get a couple more hours of sleep.
HEY ARNOLD...HEY ARNOLD (Arnold reaches over his nightstand and shuts off his alarm/radio)
"Man...i didn't think things could ever get this weird...i mean what a night... YAWNS hmm...i wonder how Helga slept?" Arnold thought to himself. "I'll go see her soon as i get ready and dressed..." Arnold said making his way to the bathroom...
Back in Helga's Room
Helga was already dressed, she was just sitting on her bed putting the last few minute touches on her Halloween costume.
"Man this is going to be a great night! I wonder what Phoeb's going to be? Wait a minute, speaking of phoebe i haven't heard or saw her in like 2 days, that's weird...(Helga takes out her cell phone) RING...RING...RING..."Hey this is phoebe...i'm not here at the moment to take your call but if you leave your name and number i'll make sure i get back to you...thank you have a great day..." BEEP Hey Phoeb's! Where have you been...please call me back ASAP...its urgent...thanks...don't forget bout the party tonight...its a costume party...so make sure you got one and if you see tall hair boy let him know too...talk to you later... BEEP BEEP Huh thats weird...she should have answered her phone...oh well she just might be really busy...
KNOCK KNOCK
"Helga its me...can i come in...?" arnold asked in a muffled voice.
"Yeah, its unlocked..." helga hollared.
"Morning Helga!" arnold said as he opened the door.
Helga quickly tried to cover her costume under the sheets so that arnold wouldn't see..."Morning Foot-ball head" she giggled.
Arnold looked at her and then came at her playfully..."oh is that is, i see how it is, for that i'm gonna tickle you!" arnold laughed as he dove for helga on the bed. Helga's eyes got wide...she was extremely ticklish...
"OMG! No Arnold, anything but tickling!" Helga cried out as she lunged of the bed to the other side of the room. Arnold flopped on the bed. He picked his head up to look in helga's direction. "No, no...your going to be tickled..." with that anrold jumped off the bed and landed right in front of helga. She was cornered. "No you have no where's to go!" Arnold laughed with victory. Helga didn't know what to do...
"Arnold don't you dar..." Helga couldn't say another word...arnold had her in his arms and was tickling her..."Arn..., i can't...i mean...i...(laughing hysterically) plea...se...(turning blue...) arn...old...(can't breathe) Mer...cy!" Helga tried to talk but she was laughing so hard that she could barely say anything at all. Arnold was enjoying this...he too couldn't contain himself. Arnold soon let Helga go...she crawled over to the bed, gripping her sides...man how they hurt...and her cheeks...
"Man...(tries to catch her breath) Your...(breathe's in and out) going to get it..." Helga said with much weakness.
Arnold still on the floor finally made his way up to the bed to sit with helga..."Ha, I win...(sticks tongue out at her)" Arnold smirked. Helga just shook her head. "ok arnold whatever you say..." Helga said.
"Lets go downstairs and have some breakfast...my grandma makes great pancakes" Arnold said happily.
"Mmmm..sounds great...wait, have you heard from gerald?" Helga questioned.
"No...i called yesterday but he never picked up his cell phone or called me back...what bout phoebe?" arnold questioned.
"No, i tried calling her this morning...no answer only her message came on. I wonder what's up?" Helga relpied with concern.
"Yeah its not like them not to keep in touch..." arnold said. "Maybe they've just been busy, i mean we all are 16/17 yrs old... we have every excuse to be busy." Arnold chuckled. Helga too chuckled.
"We'll stop by their houses later, how bout those pancakes?" Helga said licking her lips with a smile. This made Arnold smile.
"Come on..." Arnold laughed.
In the Kitchen
"Good morning short man!" Grandpa phil yelled out.
"Morning simba!" grandma pookey cries out.
"Morning Grandma, Grandpa!" Arnold replied.
Helga just smiled and waved her hand. " Oh i'm sorry, grandpa this is my GirlFriend Helga...Helga this is my Grandpa phil and this is my grandma..." arnold smiled as he introduced them to each other.
"Awe nice to meet you Helga...hope you like pancakes...?" Grandma said happily.
"Yes i love em" Helga smiled as her stomach rumbled.
"Short man treating you alright?" grandpa phil asked.
"Yes he's an amazing young man" helga replied as she smiled at arnold.
"Thats good to hear...i now know that all my words of wisdom and teaching have payed off...(phil was interupted as arnold yelled out for helga to come to him) Helga went into the living room to only be shocked and amazed herself.
"WOW...OMGoodness. i mean Crimity!" Helga gasped.
"Grandma, grandpa you did this all for me...you guys are the greatest. ( runs over and gives both of em a group hug )" arnold cried out.
" Now you can just relax today and just get your plans organized..." grandpa phil said.
('ll describe to you what it looks like...there's 4 strobe lights hanging in all 4 corners of the room...there is all skeletons and gravestones on stacks of hay along the bottom of the wall...the pop up coffin was by the front door to welcome the guests...there was bats hanging from the ceiling...with streamers...and spiders...a couple of witches hung on the wall...a mirror ball hanging from the middle of the ceiling and a frankenstien in one of the corners so...yeah really really awesome...didn't even look like a it was ever a living room...hehe)
"Well grandpa me and helga were going to check up on 2 of our friends so we'll be back by 4:00pm ok..." arnold asked.
"Sure arnold..not a problem...see you later." phil relpied.
"Bye grandpa, grandma..." Arnold yelled as he opened the front door and stepped outside. Helga gave them a wave goodbye.
First stop phoebe's house.
KNOCK KNOCK (Phoebe's dad answer's the door) "Hello, umm..is phoebe here by any chance?" helga asked.
"No i'm afraid she didn't come home last night, she said she was sleeping at her cousins house...but she said if were to stop by to let you know that she'll see you tonight helga at the party." Her dad replied.
"Oh ok...thanks..." Helga said with disappointment
"Not a problem Helga...bye helga, bye arnold.." her dad said with a smile. Click (dad shuts the door and locks it)
"Well lets see if we have any luck with gerald." arnold said looking at helga.
Second stop gerald's house.
KNOCK KNOCK (Geralds dad answer's the door) "Oh hello arnold, how can i help you?" Gerald's dad asked.
"Is umm..gerald there by any chace?" arnold questioned.
"No i'm afraid he stayed over his grandparents house last night, but he said if you should stop by to tell you that he'll see you tonight at the party." the dad replied.
Arnold looked over at helga. Helga got a shiver and rubbed the back of her neck.
"Ok well thanks..." arnold responded.
" Not a problem arnold, have fun tonight at your party...!" the dad smiled. Click (dad shuts the door and locks it)
"Well that was really strange...?" arnold said as he walked down the steps.
"Well atleast they said they'd be there tonight." helga confirmed.
"yeah but it's still strange...ah...i'm just over reacting...aren't i?" arnold asked helga concerly. Helga just shrugged her shoulders.
"Lets take a walk to the park and talk a while.." arnold said as he extended his hand to helga. Helga took his hand into hers and both took off to the park.
15 minutes later at the park
" Helga did you have any strange dreams lately?" arnold questioned.
"Yeah i did, last night i had a horrible dream, but it was as if it wasn't a dream, its like it already happend." Helga said with wide eyes.
"Really!" arnold gasped.
"It was really dark and there were those two men that i saw early walk by the costume shop, and they were saying how i belong to them and that he made me and loved me and wanted me back and that he can't let me go and it was so dark and i was calling out for you and then one of them bit me on the neck and i was so scared.!" helga said with fright.
"No way...my dream was exactly that...that was too weird. And they kept saying arnold remember, remember arnold and i remembered them...but i don't think i've ever met them before...(helga cuts him off)
"Yeah me too...What do u think it all means? Remember at your pre-halloween party? Remember how we had the same dream? Do u think that has something to do with it?" Helga asked earnestly.
"Yeah your right, i remember that...we did have the same dream. i don't think it has anything to do...well how can it?" arnold said looking at helga.
"Lets try not to think bout it. Hey do u have halloween music? I can't remember if i bought a cd or two last night...(lol i can't remember if i wrote she of he did)" helga questioned.
"I dont' remember either...oh well...hey we can go to that new halloween store that i went to last night to get all the decorations...they had alot of awesome things there..." arnold said with excitement. "The clerk was really nice...her name was kat...(arnold looked over at helga...Ooops...)
"Kat?" Helga questioned.
"Just a girl that works there. She helped me find alot of clearence things and gave me a few extras on the house." arnold said with a big smile...hoping that helga wouldn't think of anything along those lines.
"Oh that was nice of her...most of the people in retail and rude and unfriendly. I'll let her boss know thats she a wonderful sales person and...(arnold cuts her off)
"No need to do that...let's just get the cd..." arnold said.
"Ok.." helga replied.
At the halloween store 15/20 minutes away
"WOW! this is a BIG store.." helga gasped.
"Told you it was big...(arnold was startled to see kat standing besides him) Oh hey Kat..you startled me..." Arnold said with surprise.
"Sorry, How are you? Oh is this your girlfriend? Hi i"m Kat! Arnold told me how wonderful you are...( Kat extends her hand to helga) Helga jsut eyed her for a moment. Kat was pretty avergae looking. Long brown curly hair...brown eyes...big smile...average build...about the same height as Helga. Helga shook Kats hand.
"Nice to meet you kat, I'm helga." helga responded.
Kat just smiled. "So do u need any help? Did you forget anything last night?" Kat asked.
Helga laughed. "Yeah we can't remember if we bought halloween c.d's or not." Kat laughed.
"well you can't have a party without music." she giggled. " Come on, follow me, we have a big selection of some great halloween music." Kat said as she motioned for them to follow her.

"She's nice...and what did you think i was going to be jealous?" Helga said as she playfully nudged arnold.

Ghostbusters...Welcome to my nightmare...Monster Mash...etc..." Arnold said as he read off the back of the cd.
"Sounds good enough to me..." Helga replied with a smile.

Once outside arnold looks at his watch. "Omg...we better get home fast...its already getting dark and we still have to get dressed. How fast can you run Helga? I told everybody round 5pm to come and it's almost 4pm.!" Arnold asked with haste.
"Pretty fast...ok lets get going then.." Helga said as she took off running with arnold.
