A/N: Ok thanks for the reviews...not as many as i'd hope but hey there's still an entire story to complete...you all have time...lol...no seriously...Any way let's...(arnold walks into the room"Hey sara! How's the story going?" arnold asked. Hi there arnold, wasn't expecting you so soon...oh and the story is coming along fine...Have you seen Helga today? i asked curiously. "Nope, i haven't...why?" Arnold replied. Oh no reason, i just needed to ask her a few things... "Oh for the story!" Yeah...for the story Arnold...Ok lets get on with it.

Ok so last chapter we had Arnold meet up with gerald and they went to the Boarding and they all talked and lets see what Helga is doing now since arnold left.

The Pataki's

As bob took a seat on the couch and fliped on the T.V. he looked over at helga still passed out on the floor. "Alright Olga, time to get up...Olga...i mean it..." Big bob yelled.

Helga sat up and rubbed the back of her head. "Its HELga, dad...H..E..L..G...A! Helga! God can't you get it right for once?" Helga stumbled as she rose to her feet. "Yikes what happend?" she asked.

"Alright Olga...whatever you say...You fainted after your little friend left with the weird shaped head, albert i think it was..." Big bob said nonchanately, his focus was still on the t.v.

"Why do i even...arnold was here? OMG...thats right..." Helga blurted out, as she took out her locket and held it with both hands.

Helga just stood there for a moment and looked over at her dad. Oblivious to her still standing there. She just shook her head with disappointment. "He can't even remember my name...or even remember that i'm still standing here...Oh why do i even care..." Helga thought to herself. With that she just marched upstairs to her room. As she opened her bedroom door she looked around..."Going to be another quite night..." she said quitely to herself as she closed the door behind her.

Inside was done in all pink and white. Pink bedspread, pink and white pillows, same with the comforter. The walls were done in a darker shade of pink, with a daisy wall border at the top. It was a small room, yet it was just enough for helga. As Helga walked over to her dresser she opened the middle door and put her hand towards the back of it and pulled out her diary, and then she jumped on her bed and opened it to the next blank page and whipped out a pen and started to write.

Dairy entry Sunday, December 18th:

Oh my arnold, my beloved foot-ball head. You came all the way to my house in the snow and cold weather to not just ask, but invite me to you Christmas eve party... I'm so sorry for this torment, all this hatred that i give you...if you only knew my love for you, if you only knew how much i cared for you... I don't know how to break these chains that bind me, everytime i try to tell you i choke on my words...i'm so scared that you won't feel the same, so scared to take the chance to...Helga stopped midsentence. Her moment was interupted when her stomach decided to announce that it was hungry. Grumble...growl... Helga grabbed her stomach. " I didn't realize it was past dinner time, i guess i'll go down stairs and make myself a little something to eat. As helga left her room, she walked down the stairs and no surprise there when she saw bob still sitting on the couch watching t.v. with a beer in his hand. As she walked into the kitchen she saw her mom hugging the counter. Mirium stood up when she heard someone enter the kitchen. "Its ok mirium, its only me..." Helga said opening the fridge. "Oh..hel..lo Olga...do you want something to eat?" Mirium slurred.

"No mom and its Helga and i'll make my own dinner, you just go back to your counter hugging..." Helga replied deffensively. Mirium just shook her head and laid her head back on the counter. Helga just whipped together a peanut butter and jelly sandwhich with a glass of milk and an apple. As she venture back up the stairs and back into her room her phone rang, it was phoebe.

Ring...ring...ring...

"Hello..." helga answered.

"Good evening Helga, how are you tonight?" Phoebe responded.

"Oh hey phoeb's, its the same every night and day here, nothing new, what about you?" Helga said coldly, taking a bite out of her sandwhich.

"Oh nothing Helga...just finishing up the rest of our christmas assignment, and finishing the last of my dinner but i got the most exciting news to share with you helga!" Phoebe said merrily.

"What christmas assignment, we were given homework during the hoilday! Crimeny! Can't even get a break during the break...ah whats the good news phoebs?" Helga said trying to sound like she cared. Although she did, she wasn't really in the mood to be bothered really, specially with good news coming from someone else other than herself.

"Oh yes helga, we had to write either an essay or a poem about what the hoilday means to us...almost like "What is the true meaning of Christmas" in your eyes...(giggles) Yeah school never really gives you real breaks...but it doesn't bother me. And oh Helga i'm so happy...Gerald asked me to be his date at Arnold's Christmas party! Isn't that so exciting!" Phoebe said with excitement.

"The true meaning of Christmas in my eyes, huh? Bull...thats what it means to me." helga scawled. "Yeah and it wouldn't bother you because you actually like school, and Gerald-o asked you to be his date for ol' foot-balls party, well i'm happy for you phoebs. You deserve to be...(Phoebe cuts helga off)

"Did you know about Arnold's Christmas Party?" phoebe questioned.

"Yeah Arnold-o stopped by today and "invited" me...why do u ask?" helga responded with question.

"Oh no reason...i didn't want it to be a surprise if you didn't know...(laughs) you know that doesn't really make any sense...forget that i asked. Helga doesn't that make you wonder about arnold? I mean he walked all the way to your house to invite you to his party personally! Helga thats HUGE! Don't you think!" Phoebe asked with eagerness.

"Yeah well kind of...(Phoebe interupted her again)

"KIND OF? Come on Helga, i know you a little better than that. You know very well that you are extremely OMG, that arnold came over to your house to ask you, HELGA G. PATAKI, to come to his party..." Phoebe corrected helga, rather firmly yet humorus.

"Geez phoeb's, ok i admitt it, its just that (takes a sip of her milk)...(phoebe finishes her sentence)

"it's just that lila's going to be there and it doesn't really give you any chance with Mr. Icecream, and it'll distract arnolds attention from you...is that right?" phoebe asked lovingly. Helga was silent.

"Helga, if you want arnold to notice you, stop trying to hide yourself, let him in, i mean i do agree arnold is pretty dense but he's not stupid and although he might not think you like him like him, but i do think he knows more about you than you think, It's going to be a brand new year, and why not try and open yourself up. Your my friend helga and i care bout you, i hate to see you this way...you deserve to be happy too. And if arnold is what you want, you have to fight for what you want...you have to show him that your interested, and show Lila that there's going to be competion and you have to put your foot down and be like I'm gonna win this...Helga trust me, if you continue to keep on this path that you are on, you will not survive, and you will loose everything, including Arnold. I'm telling you this not to be mean but i'm telling you this because i care about you and i deffinately believe you have a fighting chance with arnold. Ok?" Phoebe asked with concern.

Helga meanwhile on the other end was speechless. Her eyes swelled with tears and she started to get choked up, she got that lump in her throat.

"Helga!" Phoebe said loudly.

" I'm sniff here...i'm sorry phoebe...(helga started to cry) I know you care, but i'm scared, you know...what if i do this and change and arnold ends up with lila in the end, everything was for nothing...(phoebe again interupted)

"No helga, then it wasn't meant to be with arnold, but atleast you tried and you don't have to wonder what if? And that just means there's someone better out there for you...but atleast you grew into a more confident young woman through the whole matter, but nothing you do is for nothing, it's always for something, and don't you forget that..." Phoebe said firmly.

"Your right phoebe, but (sighs while holding the picture of arnold close to her heart) there is no one greater out there for me than arnold. He's the greatest they come and he invited me to his party!" helga full of happieness. "And phoeb's, Gerald and you go good together...and i am truely excited for you, really i am..." Helga said kind of shamefully.

"I know you are helga...Ooo got to go, dad's calling me...i'll call you tomorrow then helga?" Phoebe asked.

"Yeah sure thing phoeb's, talk to you then, goodnight!" Helga replied.

"Goodnight Helga!" Phoebe said as she hung up the phone.

CLICK

As helga hung up the phone, she spun around and jumped on her bed with the picture of arnold still close to her heart.

"Oh Arnold this will be the year, you see me for me! No more name calling, no more...spit balls, no more pushing and shoving. Oh Arnold...I love...

Falls asleep in 3...2...1.

A/N: Ok how did you all like this chapter? Come on be honest? "I was in this chapter, heck this whole chapter was all about me and...( Sara interupts ) And ICECREAM! I laugh devilishly. "Icecream? Where?" Arnold said as he walked into the room and looked at us. "OMG! Arnold!" Helga gasped. Arnold we were just ta...(helga grabbed my mouth shut) "You were just what?" Arnold asked curiously. "Uh nothing Arnold, Sara's just talking weird...you know when you got to the point that you lost it?" Helga said as she gave arnold a serious face. Arnold just raised his eyebrow..."Well i better be going now...Sara talk to you later...Helga same to you.." Arnold said with hesitation. Before he left the room he took one more look over at Helga and sara. Helga gave him a great big smile while still holding on to Sara's mouth. Arnold just shook his head and closed the door behind him. As soon as the door closed Helga released sara's mouth and Sara just laughed. Helga hit her upside the head, it didn't matter she just laughed harder. "Oh Helga, i love you...you make me laugh so hard sometimes...(laughing harder) " Well i'm glad my humilitation makes you laugh but it isn't funny, i mean arnold could have easily found out that i like him like...(helga is interupted as the door opens) "Sorry, forgot my hat...you like who?" Arnold said with a sly smile. Helga's jaw just dropped. "CRIMENY!" Helga said disbelief and with that she threw her hands up in the air and stormed out of the room. Arnold looks over at me. "Well that went well..don't you think?" Arnold said with a laugh. Yeah without a doubt... We all just started laughing. Ok everybody...til next chapter, Adios!
