Hello, thank you everyone here's the last chapter hope you like it.

Timewarp321: Arnold isn't stupid, and he knows he fucked up big time. He'll do anything to get Helga to apologize to him.

Nep2unne: It is true and Arnold being dense never took her feelings into account when he KNEW how she felt about him years ago. Arnold hates it when people are mad and giving him the cold shoulder. Helga wont even look at him. He has a rough road ahead of him.

Guest. Your right Arnold doesn't deserve her, and he knows it. But Helga's not going to fall for it again. Arnold has a lot of groveling to do. For Helga to ever trust him again.

Disclaimer" I own nothing again (sadly. Heavy sigh)

Enjoy!

Chapter 7. The prom

The day of the prom and Helga was still ignoring Arnold. What's worse was even Gerald was upset with him and he KNEW about it. Arnold was sitting on his couch, he started banging his head against the wall. He tried calling her again same thing Bobby cussing him out and hanging up. Arnold sighed as he grabbed his jacket and car keys.

"Are you ready Ms. Shortman?" Arnold asked as he held his arm out for his sister.

"I sure am Mr. Shortman." She said as she took his arm and the headed to his truck.

"don't worry Arnold I'm sure Helga will come around." As she patted his shoulder Arnold did a week smile. Oh, I wish that was true he thought. Man, I fucked up big. He kept thinking of the look of pure hatred and hurt in her eyes when he saw that day at school.

Helga was in her room typing away when Bob knocked.

"Come in" she called as she finished typing and closed her laptop as bob poked his head in.

"hey sweetie." He said as he sat next to her.

"You know, I never told you how much I appreciate all the help you did. I mean we have a good system, right?" he says

"Yeah dad. Its great." Helga said with a smile. Bob puts his hand on her knee and squeezes lightly.

"Well, you see, Helga, when your mom died You jumped right in to help bobby. And you had to grow up real fast. I'm sorry about that. But sometimes I forget that you're still a kid. And sometimes the lines blur on who the real parent is." He said. Helga patted her dads arm

"Dad its fine. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat." She said and smiled.

"hey isn't tonight the prom?" he asked Helga nodded as bob stood up.

"Aren't you going?" he asked

"no." Helga sighed

"oh, nothing to wear?" he asks

"no, worse. No date." Bobs eyebrows popped up

"Really? Because there's a handsome young man downstairs in a tuxedo asking for you." He said as he closed the door. Helga was surprised she jumped up and looked at her self in the mirror. I wonder if Arnold really is sorry she thought to her self as she fixed her hair. Helga walks down and is half way down the stairs when she sees Sid.

"hey Helga." Said Sid and Helga crossed her arms and raised her eyebrow at him.

"What are you doing here Sid." She asked.

"Look Helga I didn't ask anyone else hoping that you would say yes and go with me." He says with a pleading look. Helga stares at him for a minute and sighs

"I'll go get dressed." she said as she went back upstirs. I wonder if Arnold is going to be there. She thought. No, it doesn't matter remember he broke your heart. He almost broke your spirit she yelled at her self as she put on her black prom dress.

AT the prom Arnold shows up and Rhonda jumps behind him.

"I forgive you alright let's dance." As she grabbed his hand. He looks over and makes eye contact with Helga as she's dancing with Sid. She looks so beautiful he thought not listening to Rhonda go on about some designer. She was wear a short black cocktail dress with black heals. She had light pink eyeshadow, eyeliner and mascara with her signature rose lipstick that gives her the puffy lips that he wants to taste again. Her beautiful blue eyes are glistening. She looks so sad. I must make this right. Helga was talking to Phoebe when Sid went to the restroom.

The men's room.

"Look I got it guys. Room 420." Said Sid showing the guys his key.

"Oh, please you're so full of yourself." Said one guy.

"Yeah, Helga Pataki is not going to give you any." Said another.

"You guys are wrong! I paid good money for this!" yelled Sid as they all left the bathroom. As soon as the bathroom door closed brainy opened the stall. He quickly washed his hands and ran to find Emma his date for the night.

Back on the dance floor the principle came out.

"Now congratulations class." He said

"Now let's nominate your prom king and queen of the senior year!" he said as he opened the envelope.

"No surprise here. Your king is Arnold Shortman." He clapped with everyone else.

"Now for your queen. This is the closet election we ever had with a 46.30 percent and the other at 44.7o percent. Your new queen is Rhonda Wellington – Lloyd." Claps all around Arnold face falls as he sees the disappointment in Helga's eyes and his heart aches seeing that. I caused that he thought. As Rhonda came up and took the mic.

"well thank you all for making the right decision and for the rest..." someone unplugged her microphone. Meanwhile brainy and Emma are trying to call Arnold.

"You want to get out of here?" asked Sid Helga just nodded. Not realizing the look Sid had on and Arnold kept trying to go after her, but Rhonda grabbed him, and they stated to dance, Arnolds eyes never leaving Helga.

"ARNOLD"

"ARNOLD"

"ARNOLD!" they yelled together. Arnolds head whipped over and brainy and Emma were waving him over with panicked looks on.

"What is it guys?" he said

"He…he...helg…Sid" brainy wheezed

"Helga? What's wrong?" Arnold asked looking at the crowd and not fi ding her.

"HEs taking Helga to a hotel. He said that he was going to nail her tonight." Arnolds face drops

"What? "he asked as he jumped down

"What hotel?" he asked as he threw his crown on the stage.

"I... don't...know...room...4...420" wheezed brainy taking a hit off the inhaler.

Arnold ran out there fast and ran over a few people he hoped in his car and started calling hotels all around not finding the one he was looking for. Arnold slammed his hand on the steering wheel and drove off.

Helga closes the door after her and leans against it.

"Hey pumpkin" said bob

"Hi dad"

How was the prom?" he asked. Helga started walking in the living room and stopped when she saw Arnold and froze.

"Helga" he said as he was crinkling his blue hat.

"have you been here long?" she asked and crossed her arms.

"yes, but its fine."

"Hey bobby its bed time we have to get up early so you can help me at the store this summer." Said bob as he headed towards the stairs.

"hey Arnold?" said bobby Arnold looked at him

"I'm sorry about the asshole comments." He said Arnold smiled and ruffled his hair

"Its all cool man." said Arnold looking back at Helga who raised an eye brow

"Its late guys. take it outside will ya?" he said as he kissed Helga's forehead.

"Yeah dad."

Bob and bobby go upstairs, and Helga takes her shoes off and tosses them.

"Are you alright?" asked Arnold

"Yeah, I guess." She said with a shrug
"he didn't" he looked her up and down.

"OH, no I just caught on to late." She said on a chuckle

"Oh" he said Helga started walking towards the sliding glass door.

"Ya know I think people forget who I am. I mean I am Helga G. Pataki" she said Arnolds head went up hearing that.

"You mean you didn't?" he asked

"I kneed him the balls and broke his nose with my knee. I don't think hell be having kids anytime soon." She said Arnold smiled as he closed the door. Helga wrapped her arms around her and turned to look at him.

"Why?" she asked in a broken voice as she looked down at the ground.

"I'm sorry. It was stupid. It was a joke. I never thought I would hurt you. I never thought you'd find out. I was going to tell you. And tell you I dint care about it. I care about." He said with each step getting closer to her.

"what did it cost you?" she asked

"my best friend" he said looking at her

"how can I believe you?" she looked up into his beautiful green eyes and he put his hand on her cheek she leaned into the touch. Both sucked in a breath at the electric tingle on where they were touching. Just then the lights came on outside. They were white Christmas lights all around the plants and pool. Bob waved and closed the curtain and went to bed.

"I don't know Arnold you really hurt me." She said in a sift voce backing up.

"I know Helga. But please. I will second the rest of my life doing anything to make it up to you. I know I never will. But we have the rest of our lives. Please." he begged stepping closer and wrapping his arms around Helga. She looked up into his eyes as she returned his embrace looking for something. Arnold leaned down and kissed her. She kissed him back. Help lips were warm and soft. The kiss was full of hurt and passion it made Arnolds heart ache pulled her closer as he rubbed his tongue against her lips wanting entrance. She parted her lips and he groaned when their tongues met in a duel for dominance. She leaned closer to him moaning I to his mouth. Arnolds hands started to roam her back and shoulders trying to memorize every part of her. Helga moved her hands from his chest to his back trying to get closer. Arnold groaned when her leg rubbed against his hard length pressing it against her. They separate, and he looks her in the eyes and kisses her again. He moves to her jaw to her chin then to her neck.

"Arnold" she whispered as she grabbed his hair pushing him closer to her neck. His hands start to trail up her stomach when a car backfired and the stood and looked at each other.

"Can I have this dance?" he asked giving her that half lidded smile that makes her heart skip a beat. Helga backed away.

"No" he looked down and disappointed he was about to turn when Helga grabbed his arm

"You can have the first, and the last." She said as she stepped closer to him. Arnolds whole head jumps up with a giant grin on his oversized head and they start to slow dance. Arnold starts kissing her again. Helga backs off

"What about college?" she asks as she lays her head on his chest.

"I'm think of going to art school." He said Helga's head pops us.

"but you don't do art or literature." She said with a raised eyebrow.

"I was thinking performing arts." He kissed her

"Be silent be still." He said while kissing her. Helga goggled.

"you know Arnold if you EVER do anything like that again I will castrate you and you will never ever even speak to me again. You'll never find me." She said Arnold nodded as he continued to dance with her and stealing kisses.

Helga pulled back "what did you lose on the bet?" she asked now curiously Arnold smirked.

"Oh, you'll see" he said as he twirled her.

Graduation

Its graduation and everyone was waiting to receive their diploma. I wonder what he must do from losing the bet. She thought as she went back to her seat.

"Arnold Shortman" said the principle. Arnold took a deep breath and stood up holding a foot ball over his penis. As he was getting cat calls as he walked up. He took his diploma as the principal eyed him and threw the football to Helga. She laughed as she caught it. Hearing more whistles. He looked at her with a wicked gleam that made Helga blush
