"Do tell more…" Rhonda Lloyd stood in her blue and yellow kitchen with one of her closest friends, Lila Sawyer, as Lila divulged the details of Arnold and Helga's incident after school earlier that day.

"They were blushing, giggling, and whispering to each other. And the way they laid on each other! It was like they didn't want to get up!" Lila spilled, adjusting her green nightgown.

"It's so obvious they're into each other. But neither one of them wants to make the first move." Rhonda added the last cut up pieces of cucumber to the concoction she was mixing in a bowl.

"So maybe they need a little push." Lila winked at Rhonda, pouring a spice into the bowl.

"And that's where we come in. Trust me, I've seen this coming all summer. After Arnold and that one freshman, whatever her name was, finally broke up, Helga jumped at the advantage. They were together the entire summer. They still hang out like everyday." Rhonda explained, and started stirring the green, goopy gunk.

"Don't forget when Arnold joined the newspaper just to be with Helga! And when they text and take a glimpse at each other during the what, five classes they have together?" Lila agreed, her face crinkled at Rhonda's recipe.

"Exactly, dear. Arnold and Helga are into each other, and it's our duty as their friends and matchmakers to get them together. It's only right. Besides, it's senior year. It's now or never." Rhonda stabbed her spoon into the glop.

Lila's manicured finger traced the edge of the bowl. "So how are we going to do it?"

Rhonda smiled an overextended grin. "Easy. We use the blog to promote them as candidates as homecoming king and queen."

"Rhonda!" Lila began to protest, but Rhonda quickly placed her other hand over Lila's open mouth.

"I know. I've been homecoming queen for the past three years, but I'm willing to step down. Especially since Helga's a friend and I feel it's a duty as a ruler to help out… the less fortunate." Rhonda went back to her project. "Plus, there's always prom queen."

"True… but why are you willing to help out Arnold and Helga? As far as I know, you don't like Helga much, and for Arnold…" Lila pondered.

"LILA!" Rhonda dropped the wooden spoon into the used bowl. "There is no alternative motive here. I'm helping out my friends. Is that such a crime?"

"I'm oh so certain I never suggested that, Rhonda. I'm just thinking…"

"Well, stop thinking, Lila. Only listening. We will make Arnold and Helga homecoming king and queen, and they will end up together. Got it?" Rhonda pointed the spoon into Lila's face.

Lila gulped. "Okay."

"Good. Now then, I think we're finally ready to put on some facials!" Rhonda stirred the batter once more before putting the spoon down to check her cell phone. Lila could see there was a text from Sid.

"You're not texting Sid again, are you? You know Harold is getting ever so suspicious lately…" Lila leaned over the counter for a closer look.

Rhonda quickly texted back a response before setting her phone back down on the counter. "Harold doesn't know anything. There is nothing going on between Sid and I, remember?" She turned her head to stare down at the facial mix.

"I remember, but…"

Rhonda finally met Lila's concerned eyes. "Just like there's nothing going on between you and Stinky, correct?"

Lila's eyes glared at Rhonda as she scowled. "You promised never to tell about Stinky and I. It was just one night."

"And it will stay that way as long as you forget about Sid and I. I believe we just made an agreement, Lila. Miss Ever So Perfect. Or am I suddenly recalling that you weren't ever so perfect one night at one of my summer parties with Stinky… I do believe my blog is always looking for fresh material…"

"You wouldn't dare." Lila growled, grabbing onto the counter for support. 'My perfect reputation means everything to me. As a friend, she should never reveal what happened. She's my friend…'

"As long as our agreement is valid, I have no reason to. Besides, I can always scoop out fresh material, with Arnold and Helga keeping up their act…" Rhonda's cell vibrated once more.

"You're a bitch, Rhonda Lloyd." Lila commented as she turned away from the counter.

"And you're a fake, Lila Sawyer. I do hope our agreement will be kept. It is a long time until graduation… I hope you can resist Stinky for a few months…" Rhonda held the bowl of facial ingredients in her hands as she prepared to enter the living room.

"I hope you can hide from Harold for a few months too, Rhonda. I'm oh so glad we came to an understanding." Lila stroked her braid.

"It was a pleasure doing business with you. As always. Now, let's get a confession out of our obsessed friend and watch Edward and Jacob fight over Bella." Rhonda held out her arm for her to take.

"Why I would love to, Rhonda." Lila smiled and took her arm as both girls returned to the living room to join the other girls waiting for them.
