"So which boxes we taking?" Helga asked with a smile. Leo looked at her confused.
"WE aren't taking anything anywhere!" He exclaimed. "YOU are going to be on your merry way as I get the rest of my crap out!" he said walking towards his used-to-be apartment. Helga gave a sour look as she crossed her arms.
"Fine. I guess me offering you a place to stay is out of the question then." she smirked as Leo stopped in his tracks and slowly turned around.
"Why in the hell would you want to help me out? You don't even know me." he glared. Helga gave him a more sincere look along with that smirk disappearing.
"Okay Leo, look. I feel like shit for getting you fired from your job so I just want to help you out a little alright." she said.
"Ohhhh! Now I get it!" he got a confused look from Helga as he slowly walked towards her. "You wanna get at me under your own roof don't you?" he said as he leaned closer to her. Astonished by his thoughts, Helga used her index finger and pointed at his chest as she shoved him back.
"Leo. One thing you need to know about me is if you try any funny business I will split you or IT in half. Got it?" Leo put his hands up in surrender. "Second. Ew. And third, I really just want to give you a place to stay until you get back on your feet since I feel responsible for..." she looked at all the boxes and Leo, using her arm to gesture at everything. "all this. Got it bucko? So unless you want to spend the night in the gutters then I suggest you take me up on my offer." she finished. Leo gave a thought to it and then after a moment he grabbed a box.
"Where do I put my stuff?" he asked, getting a smile from Helga. Leo just gave her a defeated look. She grabbed another box as she showed him to the trunk.
"Oh and just to let you know Leo, if you really don't get back on your feet and are still a rude lazy ass then your out within a month." she pointed out, going to grab another box.
"This bitch it going to be the end of me..." he whispered to himself. "I'll wrap her all around my fingers for crossing me." he gave a devilish smile as he made his way to get the rest of his things.
Arnold had gotten out of class not long ago and drove by Helgas to see what she was up to. He had some chips and drinks for them to munch on. When he got off of his car to go into Helgas home, it was locked.
"How wierd. I wonder where Helga went." He said aloud. He got his phone out to give her a call but just as he was, he sees Helga pull up with a guy inside her car and a ton of boxes in the back. "Wh... What the?" he said as he walked towards them. Helga opens up the trunk and gets off to talk to Arnold while Leo gets off and starts getting boxes out.
"Just put them on the sidewalk for now Leo." she told him. He put a hand on his forehead as if he was saluting her. "Hey football head. I was going to go and check up on ya at your class but something else came up." she said gesturing to Leo. Arnold didn't know what to say.
"Helga, who is that guy?" he asked. For some reason he didn't really want to know the answer and he didn't know why but he asked anyways.
"Remember the guy who I got fired? Yup. Thats him." she said simply. Arnold gave her a dumbfounded look.
"Okay... And why is he leaving a bunch of boxes in front of your home?" he asked.
"I offered him a place to stay since he got kicked out of his home." she finished. Arnold couldn't believe what he was hearing.
"Helga are you CRAZY!?. You don't know the guy!" he said outloud.
"Oh please Arnold, like you wouldn't help out someone who you got fired from their job and kicked out of they're home?" she told him.
"That being besides the fact Helga. Your a woman and he's a man! How can you be so light about this?" he told her, a million thoughts of what can happen if this guy moves in.
"Look Arnold! I just don't want Karma turning around and biting me in the ass if I don't do SOMETH-" Helga was interupted by Leo popping up in the middle of them.
"Oh man. Are the two love birds having a lovers quarrel?" he said looking at both of them. Arnold gave him a bewildered look as Helga gave him an annoyed one. "Oh and fyi..." he stopped. "football head" Arnold glared at Leo. "Blondy here doesn't really catch my eye soooo I don't think I'll do anything to her." he finished with a cocky tone. He saw the chips Arnold was holding and grabbed a bag. "Ooo chips!" he was going to run off when Helga snatched them from Leo.
"Leo, shut the fuck up and go take your shit out of my car!" she growled.
"Damn." he looked at Arnold "You need to control your girlfriends language football head." Arnold kept his glare on Leo.
"Do NOT call me football head! And Helga isn't my girlfriend." his tone got a bit softer towards the end as his expression got softer turning towards Helga. "Helga, are you sure about this?" he wanted to make sure.
"To be honest, I'm having second thoughts because the guys pretty stupid but I have to make up for what I did to him somehow." she smiled at Arnold. He returned the smile but with a bit of worries mixed in. Helga looked at the bag of chips she snatched from Leo.
"Oooo hot cheetohs! Nice! We can chill after we throw Leo's crap into that room im using as storage." she said grabbing all the things Arnold was carrying and going to open the door to her home. "Wanna help stupid over there?" she smiled.
"Who the fuck you calling stupid?" Leo noticed Helga talking. Arnold chuckled and started grabbing the box Leo was carrying.
"Here stupid, I'll take the boxes inside." he laughed. A little lost, Leo was left standing.
"What the hell man!" he said as he was finishing up taking all the boxes out of the trunk.
Once they finally finished taking the boxes inside and putting the little bit of things in the spare room to another area, they went to the living room and started relaxing and chatting.
"So... Leo right?" Arnold asked. Leo nodded as he drank the glass of water he had. "How old are you?" he wondered. Leo finished taking a gulp out of his water and then took a deep breath.
"I'm 22 years young and fended for myself since my parents pretty much disowned me but that all went to shits when I met satan over there." he pointed at Helga. She was about to tell him off but he continued. "I was born in LA. Blood type O. Birthday is June 29. Hmmmm." he thought. "Am I missing anything else? I'm sure you two were going to ask me a billion questions so I made it easier for you." he finished as he started gulping down the rest of his water. Arnold looked at Helga.
"Why the hell are you still calling me satan if your living under my roof now pretty boy? Learn to be more respectful or else your ass is going back outside!" she threatened. Leo gave a sigh.
"Fine. Fine. I'll chill with my choice of words then." he admitted defeat. Arnold looked at Leo curious to know something.
"If you don't mind me asking Leo, why do you say your parent's disowned you?" he asked. Leo gave Arnold a glance.
"Aren't we nosey?" he teased, getting a glare from Helga. He sighed once again. "Technically it's my old man and step mom. When I turned 18, I moved out while I was able to because that woman manipulated my old man in every way. She told him I did a whole bunch of shit when I didn't so my own father was going to kick me out, disowning me, but I ran before he had the chance to." Leo gave a saddened expression.
"I'm sorry to hear that Leo." Arnold put a hand on his shoulder. Leo looked up at Arnold and gently pushed his hand off.
"Thanks Arnold but I don't need your sympathy. That was years ago." he laughed. He brightened up a bit and sat straight up, slapping his knees. "Now it's time for me to ask questions!" he practically yelled. Helga and Arnold looked at each other.
"Ask away Leonardo." Helga teased.
"What's the deal with you two? You're dating right?" he said bluntly. Helga and Arnold were a bit blushed from the question but Helga answered it.
"How many times do we gotta say that were not dating you dweeb! Were friends and nothing more!" Shocked by the answer, Leo glanced at Arnold and saw that he had a bit of a sad expression as he looked at Helga. Arnold couldn't understand why but the words Helga used stung him on the chest a bit. Noticing Arnold's reaction he smirked and laid back putting his arms up behind his neck.
"Alright. Alright. I get it now." he had that devilish smile of his. "Well then Helga. What kinda guys ARE you into?" he smiled as Arnold's ears perked up a bit as if waiting to hear the answer to that question.
"What? What kind of a question is that?" she said defensively.
"Or are you not into guys?" he teased. Feeling slight anger, Helga stood up.
"If I was, you sure as hell wouldn't know!" she looked at Arnold in the eyes as she was turning and let a slight blush appear as she left the room. Was that a... Did she just... No. I'm just imagining things. What's wrong with me. Thought Arnold. He could have sworn he saw her blush but pushed it aside. Leo on the other hand knew this situation between these two. He had a ton of things running through his head. How to ruin the woman that screwed him over. Revenge sure is sweet when there is another person involved. He chuckled to himself.
"So Arnold. What kinda girls are you into?" he smirked.
